My up and down arrows as well as page up and page down no longer work properly only when using firefox. Page up and down function more like the "home" and "end" keys as do the arrow keys.

Honestly I'm not sure if these began just after I updated FF to the current release, but it's been happening for at least 2 weeks. The arrow keys and page up and page down keys all work as if I'm pressing the 'home' and 'end' keys on my keyboard. This is only when using FF. Please contact me if you need more clarification. Thanks in advance!

Sounds that you have switched on caret browsing.

I can't see the body of emails in hotmail when using firefox 37.0.1 I can see them in IE and firefox mobile. Help please

I resend some emails regularly with only slight changes to the email so I usually do a "reply all" or "forward" . Recently I cannot see the text in the body of the emails using FireFox, however I can see the complete email when using FireFox mobile or Internet Explorer. Any ideas what is causing the problem and how to fix it? I have tried to copy and paste the text into a new email but that didn't work.
I am using Windows 7 SP1 Home Premium and FireFox 37.0.1
Any help would be appreciated.

I uninstalled Adobe reader, then did the rest of your suggestions but the problem remains. It is only with 3 emails that get resent daily with slight changes to the text. It is like most of the text has been removed from the email.
Thanks for the suggestions and advice

Do I get better results/ keeping the battery's life longer by charging only when it comes to 5-10% or should I let it empty and then charge it? Someone told me also to turn it off while I charge it... So help what is the best way to keep long life battery

I got the new iPad on June 2012 and I wish to keep the long life of the battery as much as I can. I always and only use the cable that comes with the product and never charge it through computer.
Should I:
1) wait till baterry is completely empty, pratectly dead and then charge it?
2) charge it when it reach 5%-10%.
3) turn off the iPad when I charge the battery?
Thank you apple support :)

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

The font in my Facebook apps is real small and I can't do what I need to..Its only when using Firefox and not Internet Explorer...Help...

A couple days ago the font in the apps I am playing like Farmville, Puzzled Hearts and Cafe World went small and doesn't show the whole page either. Its not like that in Internet Explorer so that tells me its either a Facebook or Firefox problem. The Home page is the right size font I use. It's just so strange...
Thanks and hope it can be fixed

Windows 8 encouters an error and restarts my laptop only when using firefox? can anyone shed any light on this? All add-ons are upto date as are windows updates

Version 18.0.2

Try to disable the automatic restart to make it easier to check the cause or open the event viewer to check this.
*Control Panel > System > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings : untick "Automatically restart"
*Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

I am really technologically retarded, it took me ages to get the screenshot and to get here.
My preferred browser is Firefox, but this problem makes me use Chrome and IE,
Is there any relation to the other problem I have with firefox which is that I cannot view anything on Youtube, when I click on a video. I get error message " an error has occurred. please try again later".

E-mail Reply function no longer works -- only when using Firefox. Gives blank compose screen. Have tried settings changes. Have un and re installed firefox.

Problem does not occur when using a different browser.

Is it Yahoo! mail?? Many users have discovered all kind of problems and glitches with Yahoo! mail in Firefox when using an old bookmark saved before Yahoo!'s recent server changes.
I suggest clearing your Yahoo cookies and entering through the main page to get a better address for your current mail server.
To remove your Yahoo cookies -- save any pending work first -- call up the Cookies dialog while viewing any page on yahoo.com (or your Yahoo site). You can use either:
* right-click the page > View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then go to one of these Yahoo addresses and click on login or mail from there:
* Yahoo home page: https://www.yahoo.com/
* My Yahoo page: https://my.yahoo.com/
* General mail redirect: https://mail.yahoo.com/
* AT&T users: http://att.yahoo.com/
* Other country sites (not on .com): the main Yahoo page for your country
Does that help?

The Back Arrow is not working properly in hotmail, using Firefox browser

I have to click the back arrow twice to get it to work. And then it doesn't take me to the previous page I was on. It takes me to my In box. It was very useful when I had my messages sorted to show only "Unread Messages". Hitting the back arrow allowed me to go back to that list without resorting. It works fine in Internet Explorer and has only stopped working in Firefox in the past week or so. Perhaps after the last upgrade.

Were you using -moz-box-shadow? Surprise! You now need to drop the -moz prefix and use just box-shadow as described in this page: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/box-shadow box-shadow - MDN]. Actually, if you want the shadow in Firefox 3.5-3.6, you need both properties. Sigh.

Screen keeps jumping up and down but only when using firefox-so not a hardware problem

The screen keeps jumping randomly up and down but nothing is being touched or pressed. The screens can be email, you tube, bank or general internet screens, or even trying to create this page

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

I have updated to Mozilla 16.0.1 and yahoo toolbar 2.4.8.20120412011105. Search assist now no longer works on the toolbar, nor does the enter key. I've reinstalled both Mozilla and the yahoo toolbar. I've followed the instructions given in the customize toolbar section, but I am thinking that perhaps this toolbar just doesn't work with Mozilla?

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''

THe home and end buttons

Just purchased a new iMac G5. For the longest time I was working on a keyboard
that had "HOME" and "END" buttons. Very useful for the timeline. Can anyone give me the answer to the keyboard shortcut for those operations on the more condensed keyboards. This answer, for some reason, has been very difficult to find in a google search.
Thanks,
D

Hi,
The home and end keys are the directional arrows on the right bottom of the keyboard and you use the function button (fn) with them. In other words fn home or fn End.
DM

Morning the Home and End

OK, so all the wierless keyboard apple do are the slimline type and even the third party ones have gone this direction. There do not have numberic keypads, whitch I can live without, but they also seem to of droped the Home and End keys! What I wanted to know is who decided that we did not want Home and End keys. I am posting this here because recently I had t get a new keyboard and it does not have End or Home, whitch are both verry usefull in FCP7. What's goinbg on?
Ben

Next best way…
fn left arrow is home.
fn right arrow is end.
Russ

My up and down arrows as well as page up and page down no longer work properly only when using firefox. Page up and down function more like the "home" and "end" keys as do the arrow keys.
