Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Moving tabs from one window to another makes the new window vanish. I have hot corners enabled so when I move up to the right corner of my display I can see all my open windows but when I click on the tab that I moved to make it its own window it vanishes

    I came up with an alternative solution.
    Instead of actually trying to move the JInternalFrame from one JDesktopPane to another, I added a single, maximized JInternalFrame to the left side. When one of the right side frames is to be docked, I merely copy its ContentPane to the single JInternalFrame on the left, set the original to be non-visible, and adjust the properties of the JSplitPane to make the "docked" frame appear.
    When the "close" button on the docked frame is pressed, I simply undo this procedure to "undock" the frame and redisplay it on the right-hand side (with its content intact from the docked frame, but in its original position).

  • Mouse vanishes after switching from X to TTYn and back

    Hello everyone
    I am using Arch for almost two months now on my good ol' Dell Latitude labtop, and (comming from Slackware) I am quite satisfied with it. However, I discovered a little flaw somewhere in my configuration. I have absolutely no idea where the source could be: When I switch back to X from a TTY-Terminal my touch pad does not work anymore. I can still move the cursor with the track point, but I cannot press any button. When I then switch to the terminal I started X from, I can read the message: "(EE) AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad: Device has changed - disabling." When I restart X everything is just fine again. So, this is not really a problem, but an annoyance.
    I could not find much in the web about it. Does anyone has some hints for me?
    Thank you all very much in advance

    Hello patroclo7
    Thank you for your answer! I do not run gpm nor any DirectFB application.

  • Internet not working with Time Machine after power outage... but works when

    My power went out and now the internet will not connect with the Time Machine. If I plug it directly into my mac book it works. Sometimes it takes a little bit to work when plugged straight in, but I can get it to work. However, when using the Time Machine, I can't get on at all.
    I tried using the Airport Utility Set up and nothing worked -- and now it won't even recognize the time machine at all!
    Any suggestions of what to do? All of my work is on the internet. I had no issues before the power went out.
    Thanks!!

    Hello,
    Yes, I mean Time Capsule. I tried unplugging and plugging in several times. Nothing is working. Somehow I cannot even see the Time Capsule network as being there at all.
    I've had the cable company come replace the cable modem, but the guy didn't really know anything beyond that. So I have a new modem that can work when the cable is plugged directly into my laptop but the whole functionality of the Time Capsule is down.
    Please help! I need internet this fixed by tomorrow morning if possible.
    Greatly appreciate the help! Thanks!!!

  • How stop iCal from switching all my events to the date beforeI assigned them? It saves but then when I open the program again all my events have been messed up.

    iCal on my macbookpro moves events to the day before I originally saved them..especially birthdays. I will create an event for the 2nd of September, for example, and then when I restart my computer and open iCal the same event is saved for the 1st even though I created it for the 2nd. I continue to correct the moved events but iCal continues to move them. I do not use an iphone or ipad with my macbookpro. My computer is operating on mountain lion. Please help!

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

  • Whenever I truy to load a picture or video file, it will stall until I start moving the mouse around. When I stop moving the mouse, it stalls again. I am running Firefox 4.0.1 and Vista

    Any picture or video file I try to load just stalls (with the exception of sound which works OK). I move the mouse and it plays or loads. I stop moving the mouse it stalls again.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Mouse clicks as soon as cursor stops moving

    Hi -- maybe I'm being really stupid but just got a new MacBook Pro running OS 10.5.5; when I'm using the trackpad to move the mouse it goes all Windows on me and automatically clicks whenever I stop moving the cursor for a moment -- this is driving me crazy! I've tried to figure out how to stop it but haven't found it so far. Any solution would be greatly appreciated!

    Been looking more into it -- seems like I have some kind of "dwell-click" operation happening -- is that standard on Mac OS 10.5.5? If not, anyone know how it got on my system and, more important, how to remove it? I have XP loaded as well that I run off BootCamp, but that couldn't be the cause, could it?
    Honestly, this is driving me nuts -- it is as if the computer has a mind of its own. Please help!!

  • After installing IOS 6.1, how do I get items in "Music" to stop moving?

    After installing IOS 6.1, how do I get items in "Music" to stop moving?

    I was having this same issue.  I went into Settings -> iCloud and turned the Notes sync ON (which when I tried to do previously, i was prompted to create an iCloud email address which I already had).  Once I turned that on, I went to Settings ->Notes and I now see a "Default Account" selection which is set to iCloud.  Now all of my new notes save on the phone and on the cloud.  This doesn't fix the fact that I appear to have forever LOST all the notes I had before iOS6.1.  Apple, we're still waiting for a response???

  • Why does the mouse button let go whenever I stop moving?

    Any time that I try to drag something I run into this problem. I can start to drag, but if I ever stop moving the mouse, even if I'm still holding the button down, FCP just unclicks the mouse button automatically. Why could this possibly be?

    What are all 4 Mighty Mouse buttons mapped to? Starting with left, then right, then scroll ball button, then side buttons. I only ask because it could be possible you are activating a different button when you stop, and the mouse switches to THAT function, thereby letting go of the left click function.

    Hello
    Simple problem - don,t know how to solve it.
    With Premiere CC when I try to do a selection (click... drag... release the click) very often it stop way before the end of the move I'm swinging the Magic Mouse. I taught that the mouse clicking was defective and went to get a new Magic Mouse after lots of frustration. Today, I have an edit to do it it does the SAME thing !!
    I was like ????#$%?&*(???
    Opened all the lights and taught I've trow the new mouse to the garbage and was using the defective mouse again... no !! - ??
    Actually, the bran new mouse is doing the same thing. What I understand after investigating on the motion and watching carefully my fingers !! -  is that when I click I have to keep my finger at the EXACT same place on the mouse... drag and release and it's fine. If I click by pushing on the mouse and my finder is moving of a 1/32th of a millimeter, it will release and my selection will be to redo. You can understand my frustration ! - 75$ later... same problem, but I know that if I click with about 5 pounds of pressure and trying to pass my finger through the plastic of the mouse, it you stay steady and make it !
    The problem is that scrolling is enable while clicking and it bugs.
    How to disable it ??
    Simple question - can't find the answer !

    Helllooo !?
    sorry but the Magic Mouse is just useless with the new Adobe Premiere CC and since I'm not the only one but can't find answer this is really disappointing. This mouse is just fantastic and now I have to swap from a USB mouse to the Magic Mouse every times I do some editing. My USB mouse if hurting my hand somehow and I want to got back to the Magic Mouse asap. Please - for sure there is a simple solution !
    Thanks !!

  • How do I get the artbard to stop moving on it's own?

    I am using an iMac 27, Illustrator CS6, how do I get the artbard to stop moving on it's own?
    I called Apple and it's not hardware.
    I can't believe the nerds at Adobe would make it so the artboard must always be centered, hence it moves on it's own and it's driving me "bat-****" crazy!
    Please help me.

    Thanks fior your thoughts. It might be.
    But, after I release my hand from the magic mouse (wireless) the screen shifts either to the right or left with no ryhym or reason.
    I wonder if some good intentional nerd at Adobe thought, wow, I'll make it so the artwork will always be centered like "responsive design."
    I am really hoping that's not the case. I have been using the app daily since 1987 and just recently upgraded to CS6.
    I guess I could go back to CS3.
    At least I won't feel like the earth is moving underneath me evrytime I click on an object.
