Mouse freezes for a short burst when mousing over links in Gmail?

As the 'question' says. Gmail in IE doesn't exhibit this issue. My add-ons are Delicious, Xmarks, IBM CCK, Java Console, Java quick starter, and MS .net framework assistant. No themes. Seems to line up with the latest Firefox release of 3.6.8.

I fixed this problem. The problem was my Ipod being plugged into the computer. Every time the ipod was plugged in, firefox stuttered and lagged as stated. I noticed when I had my ipod unplugged for a while to use another usb device, firefox was fixed, I thought it was the update that week that fixed it. Couple days later I plugged my Ipod back in, problem returned. But, ever since I started charging my ipod elsewhere, the problem has disappeared. So, anyone still having this problem, check to see if you have an ipod, iphone, or another usb storage device plugged in.

  • Firefox frequently freezes for 30-60 seconds when I click on bookmarks, bookmark buttons, almost anything really.

    Firefox frequently freezes for 30-60 seconds when I click on bookmarks, bookmark buttons, almost anything really. It has been doing this ever since I downloaded the latest update (7.0.1). It is really frustrating. Can you please help?

    You will also notice that your shift key will be emulated. Meaning that keys you will try to press will press but they will act like you are pressing the shift key when you are doing them.
    Try this, minimize the firefox window by pressing the tab on your taskbar. After doing that maximize it again. You will magically be able to click any link on your page. When you navigate to a new page however, the entire situation will start all over. My only remedy is rebooting and hoping it doesn't happen again soon.

  • Yellow pop up box when hovering over links missing in CC?

    The behavior when hovering over links in the Links Panel in CS6 was a yellow pop up box with the full path of the link displayed.
    I find that is not the behavior in CC and I am really missing that.
    Have I missed a setting somewhere to enable this in CC?

    That was it.
    Tool tips was not enabled. Enabling it brings back the yellow box. Didn't really think of that as a tool tip.
    Thanks

  • Yellow Box when hovering over links

    Hi All,
    I have read a few discussions surrounding the 'yellow box' that appears when hovering over links in safari. Last I read some time ago revealed this is an intergrated 'feature' of safari. Is this still the case?? Or have enough users complained to have this 'feature' squashed (fingers crossed.....)
    Thanks

    You may keep your fingers crossed.  Hovering produces the yellow information box.
    Ciao.

  • I am having problems with the screen freezing for a short time ( a few seconds), what is the problem?

    I can be working on any website, game, e-mail, and the screen will freeze for just a few seconds and then it will be ok again.
    I don't know what has happened. Could it be my computer, mouse, or ME?

    First try the standard troubleshooting steps of quitting the Camera app as described below then resetting your iPad.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
    Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Expanding movieclip when mouse go out and shrinking it when mouse go in

    Dear all friends,
    I have movieclip called view_mc and button called btn_scale.
    I want when the user click and drag the button btn_scale, he can scale the movieclip view_mc.
    but when he goes out with the mouse, the movieclip is expanding.
    and when he goes in, the movieclip is shrinking.
    I have written the code, but it does the opposite: when he goes out, it shrinks. and when goes in, it expands:
    var clickedX:Number;
    var clickedY:Number;
    var newScale:Number;
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, on_stage_down);
    stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, on_stage_up);
    function on_stage_down(e:MouseEvent):void
    if(btn_scale.hitTestPoint(stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY))
      clickedX = stage.mouseX - view_mc.x;
      clickedY = stage.mouseY - view_mc.y;
      newScale = view_mc.scaleX;
      view_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, on_enter_scale);
    function on_enter_scale(e:Event):void
      if(view_mc.width < restricted.width && view_mc.height < restrictedArr.height)
        view_mc.scaleX = newScale * (clickedY / stage.mouseY);
        view_mc.scaleY = view_mc.scaleX;
    function on_stage_up(e:MouseEvent):void
      view_mc.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, on_enter_scale);
    Please help me to do the right scaling.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 won't Render. Freezes for 1-2 minutes when I try to edit the timeline.. Help!

    Hi Guys
    I'm new to this, but in desperate need of help. Thought i'd give it a shot and let you know what my problem is!
    Basically i'm editing a dance concert which is approx 2 hours long. I'm running a late 2011 model iMac w/ i7 Quadcore and 16GB of RAM.
    Using Sony XDCAM EX 1080p footage (2 cameras). Everything was going so well until I rendered (not export) the footage overnight. It only rendered less than half of the footage and won't allow me to render anymore.  Doesn't even show the details of the amount of frames.. estimated time etc.
    Heres a screen shot -
    I checked my hard drive space and there's 150 GB left so there's more than enough for it render.
    Another problem is that any editing i do to the timeline whether it's trimming, moving, copying etc. It just lags / freezes for about 1-2 minutes (has the loading Icon) then goes back to normal.
    Before I did the rendering last night, everything was fine. I was able to edit very smoothly without any lag or freezing. First time i've encountered this. I did the same production last year using the same cameras, file format and software version and it was fine.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Kind regards,
    Jeremy

    Remove the gaps in your timeline  or fill the gaps with black clips and try again.

  • Safari 7.0 problem when hovering over links

    Recently updated to Mavericks and Safari 7.0.  Now encountering a problem with my wordpress website www.robinmandel.net (and several other sites that use the same theme evince the same problem.)  Problem is: some links, both text and images, are now jumping around when moused over, making them impossible to click and disrupting the formatting of the page.  Same problem with Chrome.  Firefox works fine.  I've looked at my site on an older machine with Safari 6 and no problem.  Thoughts?

    Use another theme.

  • Hyperlink color doesn't change when hovering over link

    I create hyperlink, color I select for hovering over link works fine. But sometimes when I publish to my website the link color does not change, but the link works ok. I go back to my mac and check, sure enough the color changes just fine. I wipe out the link and reinsert new one. Works fine on the mac, but when I publish, color does not change when hovering. Help.

    Welcome to the discussions. This is a long shot, but try clearing your browser's cache and reloading the page — then see if the color changes when hovering. ( In Safari, click on the Safari menu and choose +Empty Cache...+ )

  • If my computer has been open for a short while, when I open firefox, it freezes and shows this script-problem: chrome://ylayers/content/overlay.js:280

    A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
    script: chrome://ylayers/content/overlay.js:280
    The only way to move on is to access the jobmenu and close it manually, then restart the computer. If I stop using the web for a while, the problem reoccurs.
    I have windows vista home premium on dell and firefox 14.0.1.0

    This issue can be caused by an extension (ylayers) that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Follow sprite when the mouse is down, but randomly move when mouse is up?

    I have a sprite that has a Random Movement behavior.
    While the mouse is down, I want it to stop this behavior and initialize a Follow Sprite behavior instead.
    When the mouse is lifted, I want to stop the Follow Sprite behavior and reset/restart the Random Movement behavior.
    Openspark helped me out with a different version of a very similar behavior a long while back, which worked. It switched between Random Movement and Draggable. I tried to edit the code so that it would apply to Follow Sprite instead of Draggable, but it isn't working the way I thought it would.
    The order of behaviors on my sprite is as such:
    followSprite (Follow Sprite)
    moveToward (The behavior described above)
    randomMove (Random Movement)
    turnTowardsMouse (sprite faces mouse when it is clicked)
    Face Destination (if not facing mouse, sprite faces toward the randomized endpoints generated by randomMove)
    This is the moveToward behavior - the middleman that's supposed to be swapping between the two:
    property pSprite
    property pTouching
    on beginSprite(me)
      pSprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
    end beginSprite
    on mouseDown(me)
      -- Overrule the Random Movement and Rotation behavior until the mouse
      -- is released. See the on prepareFrame() handler for the effect.
      pTouching = TRUE
    end mouseDown
    on prepareFrame(me)
      if pTouching then
        -- Block the event from reaching the Random Movement and Rotation
        -- behavior, so that only the Draggable behavior will work.
        if the mouseDown then
          stopEvent
        else
          -- The user has released the mouse.
          -- Start a new movement in the Random Movement and Rotation behavior.
          pSprite.pPath = VOID
          sendSprite(pSprite, #mNewPath)
          pSprite.pRotate = VOID
          sendSprite(pSprite, #mNewRotation)
          pTouching = 0
        end if
      end if
    end prepareFrame
    Can anyone help me figure this out?
    If you want to imagine a visual, it's essentially a touchscreen fish tank. Fish swim around randomly, but when someone is touching the screen, they approach the point of contact (which is defined by a tiny invisible sprite centered on the cursor).
    Once again, thank you so much to anyone who can help me out. This is part of a capstone undergraduate art project I am doing - and I am far more experienced in making the visuals than I am in coding. I am having to mostly tackle Lingo on my own. Any coding help I've received will be recognized (with permission) on my artist website as well as a thesis paper I am writing that will be published in May.

    As first steps at troubleshooting you could try an SMC reset and a PRAM reset:
    SMC Reset
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer’s power cord and disconnect peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Reset PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
    You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If that doesn't help, what OS are you running? Depending on the OS (Lion/Snow Leopard) will help determine the next step.

  • Photoshop CS6 freezes for 25-45 seconds when using brushes

    Has anyone had a cure for this?
    [win 7 pro
    AMD X4 quad core 3.2 Ghz CPU
    16 Gigs of 1600 speed RAM
    Seagate HDD
    NVidia Geforce 610 graphics card]
    I cruising along on my project, and I grab a brush, my curser disappears, I cannot click any other button, not even the desktop. The entire system freezes up from 25 to 45 or more seconds.
    I am using a wireless Logitech mouse. Could it be a USB problem?

    From experience, these types of problems are usually bugs in the video card drivers. Sometimes a newer driver introduces a Liquify bug that older drivers did not have. Some users have uninstalled the newest driver and installed older drivers to fix problems they were experiencing. If this works for you please post the driver version so others can benefit. I will send a bug report to NVidia.

  • ITunes freezes for 60-120 secs when connecting iPod

    This is weird. I have iTunes 7.6.1 and OS X 10.5.2.
    Whenever I connect an iPod (my wife and I have three between us), iTunes freezes with the spinning beachball for anywhere from 60 to 120 seconds, sometimes longer. At times, when I try to drag a podcast or something over to an iPod, it won't "take"--it's not on the iPod in any of the menus. If I try to do a sync of all podcasts, for example, it freezes completely and even trying to force quit won't do anything.
    I've deleted the plist files, but no luck. Any ideas?

    It sounds like a hardware problem is messing with iTunes communicating with the iPod. I'd suggest the easy stuff first. Switch USB ports, switch USB cables, reset your iPod. If you are connecting via a USB hub try connecting directly to a USB port on the computer. If the iPod is still in warranty you can take it to the Apple Store or call Apple Care.
