My Firefox has JUST started jumping to the BOTTOM of a web page when I hit either the Page Down key or the Down Arrow, WHY?!?

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2. Today my Firefox started jumping to the BOTTOM of a websites page INSTEAD of going down one screen at a time like the Page Down key has been doing (on any browser I have ever used).

You may have switched on caret browsing.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite, when I hit either apostrophe or quotation key in Apple Mail , that starts new paragraph

    Since upgrading to Yosemite, when I hit either apostrophe or quotation key in Apple Mail, that starts new paragraph like I am hitting the return/enter key right next to the key I am hitting.
    I've eliminated the possibility that I suffer from fat finger syndrome by ruling out the issue in other apps like Pages/Word (apostrophe/quotation works fine).  This is only happening in Apple Mail.  Example: [ Can't ] appears as [ Can' ] with [ t ] as the start of a new paragraph.  I use an Apple wireless keyboard, so I also tried using an Apple keyboard connected by USB port.  Still have the same issue in Apple Mail, but not in other apps.
    Any idea what this is?

    Update.
    This only happens when I am typing above my signature information or replying to an email when the body of the email I am responding to included.  Does not happen when I am typing a blank email.
    Thanks,

  • Firefox has just started being incapable of accessing any website while other programs--Eudora & IE--continue accessing web as usual.

    Firefox has worked well for years. Suddenly yesterday it started failing to find any web site. The message is always "unable to connect." Meanwhile, IE and Eudora continue accessing the web as usual.

    This troubleshooting articles has a number of suggestions to try in this situation: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help]. Any luck?

  • Please can someone explain how to delete email addresses?  I have people who when I type in their name it comes up with the correct email address but then when you hit return to confirm it promptly changes the name to someone else (always the same someone

    Please can someone explain how to delete and email address that when typed in brings up one name but when you hit return to confirm it jumps to another name.  I can't find them in my contacts list but they do come up when you type the first few letters of a name.
    EG If I type xyz and the name of the person comes up, when I press return to confirm that's the one I want then it jumps to [email protected],  always the same def address.
    I can't fathom it out.
    Thanks
    Terri

    Try this:
    Start a new email.  In the To address bar, type in xyz like you normally do, press return to confim, and when the address you want to remove shows up in the address bar, move your cursor over the address you want to delete.
    A small triangle next to the name will show up.  click on it, a drop down menu will open, click Remove from Previous Recipients List.  Then do the drop down menu again and Remove Address.
    Good luck.

  • I am trying to type a password into a Pages document. The number goes in OK but when I hit return or any other key the numbers get transposed. What happens and how do I corret it?  Thanks

    I am trying to type a password into a Pages document. It types in OK, but when I press return or close the document some of the letters in the password get transposed. What happens and how can I fix this? Thanks.

    Are you just typing ordinary text into a word processing document or are you trying to set a password on the document itself?
    If it is the first perhaps Pages is trying to spell check the password. You can tell it to ignore that "word", or turn spellchecking off.

  • Firefox has slow start up & I have the latest version. IE, Chrome, AOL start right away. Firefox takes up to 10 minutes.

    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • I have a late 2006 iMac that has just started giving me a message to reboot after a black screen comes down slowly from the top top of the screen to the bottom.  I reloaded software and restored from Time Machine, it now happens frequently.  Any insight?

    I have a late 2006 iMac that has just started giving me a message to reboot after a black screen comes down slowly from the top top of the screen to the bottom.  I reloaded software and restored from Time Machine, but it keeps happening, now several tomes a day.  Any insight as to the issue or a proposed solution?

    Unplug any peripherals you have except your keyboard, reboot, and check activity monitor for apps.  Keep running apps to a minimum to find the App causing the issue.

  • Shortly after starting Firefox the "music" reminiscent of Pac-Man starts. It is only on Firefox (haven't tried Thunderbird) even following an uninstall and re-install of Firefox. Just started today. Am using XP Home SP3.

    Shortly after starting Firefox the "music" reminiscent of Pac-Man starts. It is only on Firefox (haven't tried Thunderbird) even following an uninstall and re-install of Firefox. Just started today. Am using XP Home SP3.

    Dear Firefox:
    I am not amused with the pac-man music. I spent the entire trying to find a virus on my computer. I might have tolerated this as an April Fool's joke, but this "celebration" was completely unnecessary!
    And to others trying to fix the problem ... I just uninstalled Cool Previews and that did the trick. No more bat-shit-crazy pac-man music.

  • My iPhone has just started getting the time wrong

    My iPhone has just started getting the time wrong. Whether I have 'set automatically' on or off, it still sets the clock and hour ahead of the real time. If I reset it correctly, within 10m it has incorrectly reset it. It is amazingly frustrating!

    Hello justveils,
    It sounds like you are not able to erase just one letter when backspacing.  I recommend following steps in the tutorial below to address an issue like this (you can skip step 2 "Recharge iPhone" because it's not related to this issue).  I think the step to reset your iPhone my be particularly useful in this scenario:
    To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    You can find the full tutorial here:

    Hi there Sing Me A Song,
    You may have changed the Up Next list in iTunes. Take a look at the article below for more information on the Up Next lists and how to edit it.

  • TS4036 My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    My iPhone has just been replaced and I am trying to restore from iCloud but its saying no backups are compatible with the version of IOS 6.0.1. My back iOS are IOS 6.1. Can you update the phone first then restore?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes, update first, Settings > General > Software Update.
    Then navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Erase all contents and settings on the device you want to restore.
    When this completes and the Set-Up Assistant starts, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose which backup to restore from.

  • I cannot retrieve my emails on my Mac Book Pro operating on 10.7.3 Icloud was already workingit keeps asking for password and when i put correct password in it keeps asking for it again and again. This has just started today

    Though it's unlikely to be wrong if things were set up properly in the first place, as a check go to Mail Preferences>Accounts and check that the server setting for IMAP (incoming) is imap.mail.me.com (not just mail.me.com).
    Your next step either way would be to go to System Preferences>iCloud and sign out, then sign back in again. (You can ignore warnings about data disappearing - your calendars etc. will disappear when you sign out but reappear when you sign back in).

    My powerbook g4 (about 6 years old) has just started freezing up--mostly when I'm in Apple Mail, but not always.  I have been restarting and it seems to work fine.  Any ideas what it might be?  I just repaired permissions.

    Tom wants you to run Disk Utility from the install disc and then select your boot volume and then click "Repair Disk" to check and correct any directory problems.  That will not erase any data files on the disc.  If Disk Utility actually makes repairs, do another "Repair Disk" operation, as sometimes one repair will uncover another error.  Stop when it gives the volume a clean bill of health without making any repairs.  Then restart the machine and see how things work.
