Everytime I try and get a site I must constantly move the crsor as in my question. Please get it right.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause

Why do I need to jiggle the window to get firefox to work?

When I try to click on something inside a window I get that small gray circle that spins. I have to move the entire window a little to get the small green circle to start spinning, then the thing I clicked on comes up. Sometimes it can just hang there and time out.

Check your network connection on run in start menu write "ping then one space then your DNS address then space then -t" and click on ok after some process on your command prompt window press ctrl+C then see wheather your receiving is equal or less the sending. If it is less then your network connection is running very slow if equal or more then network is good. You can also do this in command prompt window by writing the same ping statement.

(When I have several pages open, if I move the cursor over a firefox page it automatically takes me there.

When I have a Firefox page open filling the screen, and open an IE page in a smaller form, when my cursor happens to go over the Firefox page, the IE page is minimized.

Hi, While writing an email online using Firefox 3.6.3, I was using one of the "CTRL+left or right arrow" to move the cursor along the text. I must have pressed some other key because the display has become huge - and I can't scroll vertically or horizontally, which makes using the Mail pages of Hotmail impossible. I have since logged in using MSFT Explorer and it works fine. This problem occurs only on the Mail page of Hotmail Live not on the home page or others.
Could you please let me know if this is a problem with Firefox, or if you have any advice on how to reset the appearance of Hotmail in Firefox?
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== While I was compiling an email in Hotmail Live

Wow, lightning fast and absolutely right!
Thank you so much!

When scrolling bookmarks the cursor gets stuck on a bookmark and stays there even if I continue to move the cursor but does not happen if I slide to the subfolder.

I am using a MacBook running OS 10.5.8 and using Firefox 3.6.10. When I scroll down my list of bookmarks the cursor will highlight a bookmark and although I continue to move the cursor the previously mentioned bookmark remains highlighted and the subfolder remains open. If I try to choose another bookmark, when I click the bookmarks disappear and I must reselect bookmarks again. The only way to select the bookmark I want is to carefully scroll down the edge of the bookmark folder an move the cursor into the bookmark. This does not occur when I get into a subfolder.

Deleted it, restarted it. tried it again. no change. repeated the whole cycle. no change. thinking about uninstalling and reinstalling, but that won't reallyk change the settings.

PS CS5 Extended on Windows
When trying to use the clone stamp and/or healing brush as soon as I move the cursor from the toolbar over to the image I get an exact copy of the existing layer that moves around the window with the movement of the clone stamp/healing brush. This just started tonight. What's causing this weird behaviour?

What are the settings in Window > Clone Source?

My firefox 'go back one page' when I move the cursor. Why?

I play a game in facebook. 'Starfleet Commander Extreme.'
After clicking on something, I move the cursor (On my laptop mouse pad)
This sometimes makes my forefox 'go back one page'.
Any clues?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Why does the "TAB" key no longer work to move the cursor from field to field with Firefox 17 in MAC OS 10.8?

The "TAB" key will not move the cursor from field to field with Firefox 17 in MAC OS 10.8. You have to use the mouse to click on the new field to move the cursor.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.tabfocus
Note: In OS X (as of 2005-01), if this preference is not explicitly set, the “Full Keyboard Access” setting in System Preferences will be honored. All builds before that date (e.g., Firefox 1.0.x) will ignore that setting.
This pref doesn't exist by default, so if you want to use it instead of the system settings then you need to create a new Integer pref with the name accessibility.tabfocus and set the value to what you want (7 is to tab through all the fields).

Firefox 4.0.1 won't load pages until I move the cursor

Whenever I click on any link, the new page doesn't appear until I move the cursor around. If it takes a long time to load, I have to do this multiple times. This sounds like a minor detail, but it's a pain in the ass. Also, it means that it doesn't automatically check for new emails in gmail, so I don't know if I have a new email unless I check it manually.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

In latest Nightly, arrow keys don't move the cursor but instead exit the text box. How can I fix this so that the arrow keys move the cursor?

Using Nightly 28.0a1, I'm having a problem with the text box fields when typing. I use Hacker's Keyboard which has onscreen arrow keys and I find it more convenient than fiddling with a tiny cursor thumb when editing text. On the Play Store Firefox it works just fine but on Nightly, any time I try to move the cursor with the arrow keys it jumps out of the text box and highlights other elements on the page. This is annoying beyond belief as it means having to resort to that imprecise thumb cursor that takes forever to get where you want it. Is this a known issue with the latest nightly builds?

Thanks for the report. I have filed bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=939959. It would be helpful to know and if you can comment into the bug to indicate which input field you are testing on.

Pinwheel when I try to move the cursor in the timeline or playback video

every time i try to move the cursor in the time line, or even playback my footage fcp immediately starts pinwheeling! i can't get anything done. i'm working off an external hard drive (g-drive) that still has around 200gb of space left, i've switched computers and the problem persists -- which leads me to believe it's the external drive causing the problem. any advice? i'm using fcp 7.0.2 -- help!

if i shoot in h264 i ALWAYS have to convert to prores?
If you work in Final Cut Pro, yes.
h.264 is a highly temporally and spatially compressed format designed for DELIVERY. It is extraordinarily resource intensive and causes all sorts of unpredictable project failures when edited directly. FCP does not support it directly. To take advantage of FCP's power, it must be converted to a natively supported format - ProRes for example.
That the sleazy cam producers have glommed onto it as a way of recording their output on really minimal media is more a statement of their desire to make things cheap than their desire to make things easy for you, the editor. When you consider that the great mass of crap recorded on these cams will (thankfully) never see the light of day, their position makes sense.

Something I have inadvertently done has removed the menu bar, the toolbars. The screen 'rolls' down when I move the cursor to the top of the screen otherwise it is in full screen all the time.

I was working on an email last night and must have set something on which I do not want. When I state firefox, it comes up full screen but without any menu or toolbars. Even when I move the cursor to the top of the scrren to reveal what is there, there still is no menu or toolbars showing.

If you run Firefox in full screen mode then press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle (Mac: command+Shift+F).

FF 3.6.8 hangs until I move the cursor

Just upgraded to 3.6.8. Now, when clicking on a link, FF does not respond until I move the cursor away from the link. This happens every time I click on a link or a menu item within FF. Usually I need to move the cursor out of the FF main window into the menu area or switch to another program to get FF to load the new link.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

How to prevent middle mouse click to move the cursor but still poaste the clipboard ?

This is a linux only issue.
When i'm typing a text editing box, i use the select text/middle click gesture to copy/paste text.
But the middle click not only paste the selected text but move the cursor at the actual mouse position before.
I don't want this behavior, because :
1. I work a lot with vim, where you don't mouve the cursor using the mouse, so i must change my habit when i'm using firefox.
2. When i middle click, event if i put the mouse in the right place, i might mouve it a bit and the text will be pasted on the wrong place
I've been looking in the about:config and the only related option is
middlemouse.paste;
If i put it to false, the middle click button does not mouve the cursor, nor does it paste.
Any idea how to achieve that ?

I do not find the cursor moving on me if I use middle-click to paste text or url that is in that I highlighted into clipboard. Whether I used my Logitech MX510 or the T-CH!!/T-CL13 trackballs that I use now.
The right-click and copy selection then right-click and paste to paste contents where Caret is method can be more precise though.
'''FredMcD''', if you have not used Linux then maybe you should not be replying to questions that are Linux specific. Same with Mac OSX.
