Mouseover text box only briefly appears when mousing over a link.

When I put the cursor over a link to view the mouseover box, the mouseover box will only briefly show up and disappear (a fraction of a second). Reinstalling Firefox didn't help.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

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).

    Hello. Since my last firefox update, I have been unable to type an email - the box within which one would usually type does not appear when I press 'reply' to a received email, or press 'compose'. The email provider is '123-reg.co.uk. I have been using both firefox and the provider ['webfusion Ltd/webmail123] successfully for well over a year. The provider says it is a browser problem. I can still add an attachment to the email header, which successfully can be sent, but the recipient gets my standard email 'signature' with font messages and the attachment. Can anyone help? My email addresses are [email protected] [this is the one with the issue] and [email protected] in English

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • How do I keep the name tags in Picasa Web Albums from appearing on the images by default? With Explorer, name tags only appear when mousing over the image, but with Firefox, all the tags appear on the picture as soon as it is loaded, which looks messy.

    I use Picasa to create web albums, and I tag people who appear in the pictures. With Explorer, the name tags do not appear on the pictures until I mouse over a specific person, at which point the tag appears. With Firefox, the name tags appear as soon as the picture is loaded, and only disappear when you mouse over the people in the picture. This makes the picture look messy; by default, one would want to see a picture without tags all over people's faces.
    The only way to "fix" this is to disable the name tags completely (or tell people to use Explorer!), but this is not an ideal solution, since I would like to be able to share albums with people's names in them.

  • Text box should not appear when printed

    Need to create a 4-line text box/form field/comment to give users instructions, but box should not be visible when printed.  A form/text field can be set-up to be visible but not printed, however, it will not allow multiple lines of text in it.
    Any suggestions?

    You made my day, week, etc.!
    I assumed that feature was to allow users only to enter multiple lines.
    Thank you, thank you!

    . How do I fix this? It never used to do that.@

    Hi cj0094,
    Please try changing the registry key HKCU\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\10.0\Annots\cAnnots\cfreetext_003_afreetexttypewriter and change the opacity back to 1. This should reset the color to black.
    Note: Please backup the registry before modifying it.

  • Dynamically created text field doesn't appear when imported

    Greetings,
    I have 2 issues regarding dynamically created text fields.
    What I'm trying to do is to create a text field inside a swf file,
    then import that swf into another file. The main problem is, the
    text field is created and displayed perfectly when i execute the
    first swf, but when i try to import the whole thing into another
    file, the text is not displayed.
    I have to point out that, when I add "stage" before the
    addChildAt command, the text appears, but I don't want the
    coordinates of the text box depending on it's location on the
    stage.
    The second problem is, I want the scroll buttons to appear if
    the text is longer than the text box, however they appear no matter
    what. I trace the values and they are correct, so I can't really
    understand why they keep appearing.
    Thank you very much for your help.

    The same thing is happening to me and it is starting to get annoying. I too am using Chrome and I think that might just be part of the issue. I am running a Macbook Pro 2010 13". Any insight on this would be helpful. Sorry I don't have a solution, but know that your not alone in dealing eith this issue.

  • Turn off metadata display box when mousing over photos?

    When mousing over photos in the viewer or browser, a box pops up next to the cursor showing metadata. I find this very distracting and annoying when editing a photo or confirming faces. In Aperture 2, you could turn it off under preferences, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to turn it off in Aperture 3 (metadata has a separate tab rather than controlling the viewing of metadata under preferences in A2). Hitting the letters Y and U work in the viewer and browser, respectively, but only for one photo - doesn't stop it for good. I've tried messing around with all the other metadata view settings. Any ideas?

    Hitting the letter T toggles the display, you can adjust this setting with Command -J.

  • I created a 5x7 postcard document in Word with text boxes and graphics.  When I converted it to PDF, some of the items were missing, even though they were in the boundaries of the page and looked fine on the Word document.  What happened, and how do I fix

    I created a 5x7 postcard document in Word with text boxes and graphics.  When I converted it to PDF, some of the items were missing, even though they were in the boundaries of the page and looked fine on the Word document.  What happened, and how do I fix it?  I'm trying to upload the PDF version to Vistaprint.  Thanks.

    Reader doesn’t create pdf files. You can use Acrobat (ask in that forum) to create pdfs. You can subscribe to the Adobe PDF Pack which has a create pdf functionality (please ask in that forum), or you can use a third party utility such as ghostscript, cutepdf, or Microsoft’s own PDF creation capability. For third party pdf creation you will need to ask in a forum dedicated to that software as fellow users of Reader are unlikely to have the knowledge to help.

  • Timing of text box will not appear.  My text boxes stop working on slide 5 and they will not work for the remainder of the slide show.

    Timing of text box not working.  I get the first few slides to work and then on slide 5 my text boxes will not appear.  And they do not appear for the rest of the slide show.   Help anyone.

    Text caption is timed to appear at 2 seconds, but you have a click box at 0sec. Its duration is very short, which means that I cannot see if there is a pause. I suspect this click box is pausing at the end of its timeline, which is at 0.3secs and the Text caption at 2 seconds will not appear before the user has clicked on that click box. The timeline is the core of Captivate, learn at least how to read it.
    Tiny Timeline Tidbits - Captivate blog
    If you want the green text caption 'Click on...' to appear right at the beginning of the slide, you have to check its Timing accordion: set it to start at 0 secs instead of 2 secs and extend its duration to the 'rest of the slide'.
    I don't know what is in the Group. That group and the HIghlight box will disappear at 3 seconds. Or maybe the action that is triggered by the Clickbox is different from 'Continue'?

  • When mousing over text, the cursor flickers constantly (with each letter passed) from arrow to i-beam and back.  The problem occurs in both MS Word and Pages.  Any idea of how to resolve this annoying problem is appreciated.  System: 10.10.1

    When mousing over text, the cursor flickers constantly (with every letter passed) from arrow to i-beam and back.  The problem occurs in both MS Word 2011 and Pages.  Any idea of how to solve this annoying problem will be much appreciated.  System 10.10.1 on a MacPro (Late 2013)

    The mouse is controlled by the OS so don't guess any app other than a mouse driver or OS X itself would be able to cause this sort of flicker issue.
    Have you seen the following and is it what you are seeing? Maybe you could make a movie (Quicktime is great for this this to make a screen recording) - but not sure how to attach a movie to these discussions as mine is grayed out and can't be selected (to the right of the insert image). Here is the what I found for a search of "mouse cursor flickers os x yosemite"

    What kind of mouse are you using? Is the mouse driver up to date if it's a third party mouse?

  • How do i change or hide the dialogue box that pops when i mouse over a link?

    i'm using adobe acrobat standard.
    i'm editing a document and adding links into the PDF to my website.
    i prefer only to show the "hand/pointer" when you mouse over the link.
    is there a way to:
    a. hide the dialogue that pops up when you mouse over a link?
    b. is there a way change the dialogue that pops up when you mouse over a link (e.g. Click Here versus the actual URL).
    Much thanks,

  • Showing help text of controls when mouse over connector

    I'm working with a system where we have decided to use input clusters for all data to all vi:s. These clusters are saved as strict type defs.
    Our idea for documentation so far has been to write a description of what the vi does in the vi description, and describing the indata by documenting each element in the input clusters type defs.
    This works very well for documentation printing purposes. However, we cannot see the descriptions of the indata in the help pop-up when mouse-over the vi.
    Does anyone know a way of getting the documentation of the wired inputs to a vi when mouse-over the vi?
    Regards
    //Martin

    Do you want to (1) see the help info (description and tip) for the cluster when you're on the front panel of the VI that uses it, or (2) do you want to see the help info when you're on a diagram of a calling VI using the VI with the cluster as a sub-VI?
    1. In LabView 6.1 or 7.0, you will see the help info for a strict type-def control on the front panel of a VI that uses it. I saved a cluster as a strict type-def. I added description and tip for the cluster itself and for individual elements within the cluster. Then I added the cluster to the front panel of a VI.
    In either version 6.1 or 7, I can see the help info:
    I can see the description of the cluster or the individual element (depending on where the mouse is pointing) whenever I have context help open (Ctrl-H
    to toggle). I can see the tip for the cluster or individual element if the operate tool is selected.
    After I added the strict type-def control to a VI, I went back to the control editor and modified the description and tip, then updated the control on the VI and saw the new info.
    2. When you're on the diagram of a calling VI using the VI with the cluster as a sub-VI, the only help info (description and tip) available is what you entered for the sub-VI. You can't see the help for the individual controls on the sub-VI unless you open the sub-VI. On the VI with the cluster, you can cut and paste help info from the cluster to the VI. On the diagram of the calling VI, with the wiring tool selected, you can see the name of the sub-VI terminal, but not the help info for that terminal.
    Seeing the help for the individual control of a sub-VI when you're wiring it sounds like a good idea to me. Maybe in LabView 8?

  • In WebHelp, when I mouse over a link, the font size changes.

    Either after I generate to WebHelp or View in RoboHelp, when I mouse over a hyperlink text, the font changes from large to small text. My step is a 11pt font, my body text is 10pt. It appears the 11 pt. font switches to 10pt font when I mouse over it. Any way to fix this?
    Also noticed that when I have a note at 9 pt, and mouse over a link, the text changes to 10pt.
    So now it appears in most of my topics with links within a step or note. In a body, the text appears fine (or stays the same) when you mouse over a link.

    Not believing that either.
    You should be able to edit your CSS in a text editor. If you are not sure what to do, set up a simple project using your CSS. Any text will do and create a link.
    See the Contact page on my site and follow the instructions there.

  • Mouse over HTML link causes single frame to display at top of page Netscape only

    Having a wierd problem. When you run the mouse over HTML
    links on the page a single frame of the flash movie apears at the
    top center of the page. It only happens in netscape in firefox
    mode. IE, Opera, and Firefox do not have the problem.
    Problem site
    Thanks in Advance,
    Vorsch

    The problem goes away if i modify my .css file by removing
    the
    border: 1px solid #999999;
    line from the "a:hover" style.
    I ran my css file thru the validator at w3c and its fine. The
    Page also validates as xhtml transitional.
    and just a note the same file version is on my public server
    and my testing server.
    Has anyone ever seen this before?? I have several sites with
    a:hover effects and flass media and have never run across this
    before.

  • The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:  "Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency conditio

    The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:
    "Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency condition."
    OR
    Extension Status is not consistent with extension set configuration."
    The reason I opened the Extension Manager in the first place was to check to see if I had installed a third party extension.  And I was presented with these warning symbols.  I haven't added anything, I haven't done anything that would cause this.
    Does anyone know how to fix this???
    I am running OSX 10.9.5; Indesign CS6 version 8.0.2 And Adobe Extension Manager version  6.0.8.28.
    Thanks in advance!
    Nina

    Many InDesign pre-installed extensions (Those extensions you have immediately after InDesign installation) define dependency rules in their mxi files. Dependency means that one extension works well only if one or more other extensions are installed and enabled. If this condition is not met, the yellow triangle warning will be shown.
    You can select an extension with warning, click "Advanced" tag page in the lower right panel. You will see "This extension has dependency on: <extension name> ...". Check whether every extensions listed here are available and enabled. If not, enable them. Repeat these steps for all the extensions which have warning.
