My drop down options menu is transparent. Why is this happening & how do I fix it?

Ever since I've upgraded to Firefox 19 from 18 none of my drop down menus work, they're all completely transparent as you can see in the following screen shot: http://i.imgur.com/PvKyZ6K.png
It's this way in every field in which drop down options appear, including the awesomebar (which is the most annoying).

Did you try a clean reinstall?
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 21.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will lose all personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar at bottom

4. Re-launch the app and test
Note: If necessary close all apps in the Task Bar

Since subscribing to iTunes match my ipad2 no longer offers the AirPlay option on the volume bar within Music, rendering my bowers Wilkins speakers useless for both iTunes and spotify. Why is this and how can I fix it?

Apple made no mention of this being an expected issue, so I can only assume it's unintentional. Otherwise I wouldn't have subscribed to Match in the first place!

How big is your library? I would recommend the following troubleshooting steps:
- Backup your library. Always a good idea before messing with things.
- Create a new library.   Refer to this article for details: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589. This won't delete your old library, you're just creating a new empty one. Also refer to this article to get back to your old library later.
- Add a few albums into this new library. Not everything, just a small sampling, as a test.
- Activate Match on this new library. You shouldn't have to re-pay, it should just say "Add Computer" or similar.
- At this point, Match should run again. With just a few albums it should complete in just a few minutes.
If iTunes doesn't crash at this point, then likely there's something about your original library that Match doesn't like - what that is I don't know, but at least you'll know it's not your PC.   If iTunes still crashes, then if could be a number of other things, but probably not your library.   My next suggestion (if you haven't already done this) is to uninstall / reinstall iTunes.   If that doesn't work, then my next ideas you won't like.

Hey there Raymondd2014,
It sounds like you had been updating the phone and now it is in recovery mode. Take a look at this info first:
If you started your device in recovery mode by mistake, restart it to exit recovery mode. Or you can just wait—after 15 minutes the device will exit recovery mode by itself.
If you are unable to get out of Recovery Mode, use the following article to restore your device with iTunes:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you don't see your device in iTunes follow these steps for Windows.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

HT5569 My new Iphone will not connect to my home wi-fi, unless I am standing beside the router. Why is this and how do I fix it? I have previously connected it to another hub before trying to connect to my home wi-fi. Would this of had an effect?

If you have connected to other wi-fi successfully, then your wi-fi should be working. Try power cycling the router. Disconnect it from power for about 30 seconds and then restart it. After it has come back, try connecting again.

The screen on my MacBook has been flickering and shaking up and down. It starts flickering, shaking, gets 'pixelated,' then eventually begins to fade to white and freezes. Restarting sometimes helps, but only temporarily. Why is this? How can I fix it?

The screen on my MacBook has just started flickering and shaking up and down while I am using it. The screen starts flickering, shaking, gets pixelated, begins to freeze, and eventually fades to white. Why is it doing this? How can I fix it?
It is a newer MacBook, just over 1 year. It is well cared for, hasn't been dropped, etc. I don't want to pay for expensive repairs for such a new computer, and I certainly can't afford a new one!
I've tried updating my system like the Support page suggested, but no improvement. The problem started just the other day, and is progressively getting worse.
.... as I typed this, it did it again. Only, this time it did not flicker and shake, but got 'pixelated' (pixels came up checkered-like darkened and lightened). It did this for about 2 minutes and then stopped after I did not touch the computer.... Now it is flickering... HELP!

it means that it is not a hardware issue. Other then that, Im not too sure. Sorry I can't help you any further, but Im sure others members of this forum will read your question and be able to help you. Good luck

Im setting up my ipad and it isnt being recognized by pc, why is this and how do i fix it?

I am setting up my new Ipad on my pc and for whatever reason, my itunes isnt recognizing the Ipad. Why is this and how can it be fixed?

Does your computer meet the minimum specs :
PC with USB 2.0 port
Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes 10.2 or later recommended
If it does then have you tried the basics : rebooting your computer, and resetting your iPad (press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot). If it still doesn't work then there is help/troubleshooting here : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

I've lost the "Send, Reply All, Attach,..." etc bar and drop down options for New Messages and Forwarded messages. How do I get it back?

I only get the option to "Send" etc. (either as an icon at the top of the message window, or in the messages drop-down menu) on messages to which I am replying, but not to new messages or forwarded messages. How do I get the options back?

I think your main mail pref file is damaged...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Specifically...

                    <key>TB Display Mode</key>
                    <integer>1</integer>
                    <key>TB Icon Size Mode</key>
                    <integer>1</integer>
                    <key>TB Is Shown</key>
                    <integer>0</integer>
(Last number should be 1 to be shown, zero to be hidden, so either that number is zero, or it quits reading the file before it gets to that point).

HT4600 i Get a solid amber light sometimes, bUT all works fine. I have to unplug the airport extreme to reset it and then it turns green and starys that way for a week or so and then turns back to amber. why is this and how do i fix it ?

I gat a solid amber light once a week on my airport extreme, but all works fine. I have to unplug it to reset it and then the light turns back to green and it is good for another week and then it happens again. why is this and what can i do to fix it ?

Solid amber on an AirPort Extreme is an indication that the internal power supply is starting to act up.
If the AirPort Extreme is in warranty, it shouid be exchanged for another AirPort Extreme.
If the AirPort Extreme is several years old, keep any eye on things. When/if you find that you are having to reset the device several times a week, it's time to start thinking about a replacement device, as the end is near.

TS5275 There is no Accept button next to GarageBand. Why is this and how can I fix it?

I was making a musical introduction for my YouTube channel (DiamondGriefingMC by the way, I'll provide a link for you to subscribe if you're into gaming) and had to make the in-app purchase in GarageBand to do so, but cannot do it because when I click on one of the sounds that are included in the purchase (which I don't have yet) the pop-up window that should be on-screen doesn't show up. Why is this, and what can I do to fix these pesky problems?

George, what is your GarageBand version? The in-App purchase is only available in GarageBand 10.0 on Mavericks, but your profile signature says "iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)". That would mean, you are running GB '11 and not 10.0.
If you are indeed using GarageBand 10.0 and do not see an accept button, it could mean, that GarageBand 10.0 has already been accepted to your AppleID or from a different AppleID than the one you are using now. Have you signed into the AppStore with the AppleID you used originally to buy GarageBand ?
Have you checked the Updates Page at the AppStore, to see, if there is an update?
How did you buy GarageBand originally?

HT1386 I have tried syncing my music from itunes to my iphone 4s and over 30 says don't transfer. It says the files cannot be found. Why is this and how can I fix it?

I have tried syncing my music from my itunes on my macbook to my iphone 4s and over 30 song won't transfer. It says the files cannot be found. Why is this and can I fix it?

You can try to repair your library. Once you are sure the files are all taken care of, you can sync the phone to remove all of the music and then sync again to add it back. That should take care of the issue.

My iphone shuts down on it's own, why does this happen?

HellO...My Iphone4 shuts down everyday-can you tell me why this is happening?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Firefox always shuts down/crashes when I am trying to print something. Why is this and how do I fix it? Went back to old version so I can print things, btw it is all printing in any website including emails.

Does not matter what website, email or pop-up and try to print something. After you click okay on the print pop-up window it shuts down. The old version does not do that, so this tells me it is Version 4 that is the problem.

Everytime I try to use FF, dozens of pop ups come up saying FF wants to use various Fuji and Fusi fonts. Nothing I do seems to stop these popups and it takes me 10 minutes before I can use FF. why does this happen; how can I stop it.

The specific message runs something like this: Firefox wants to use Fuji Extended Bod Italic on the volume WD startup. It is not installed. Allow Firefox to use it?
I can choose allow or don't and there is a checkbox that says "do not ask me again." no combination of these options stops the progression of pop ups, which can last for minutes and will start all over again next time I start firefox.

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

My wife and I have separate login for the Macbook, and separate iCloud accounts, by my contacts still sync to her iPhone. Why is this, and how can we fix it so every time she turns iCloud on, she doesn't end up with all my contacts?

Hey everyone,
This problem has been bugging me for a very long time, and have not been able to find the answer I am looking for.
My wife and I both have separate iphone's with separate iCloud accounts and all. We also both use a Macbook Pro with separate logins.
The issue is, when my wife logs in to her account on the macbook, and turns the contacts on to sync with icloud on her phone, all of my contacts are saving to her phone.
This has happened multiple times, and she says she just wont use it, but I rather have everything work together correctly.
Please help!!!

If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
Take a look at this.
