Often after I've selected a Bookmark there are remnants of the list of Bookmarks still on my screen outside of the Firefox window. How do I get Firefox to not leave remnants of the Bookmark list?

Often after I've selected a bookmark from my list of Bookmarks in Firefox the screen doesn't refresh properly and parts of the list of Bookmarks remains on the screen. The remnant is always above and/or below the window that contains Firefox. If I move the window around the desktop gets properly repainted. However there is still a remnant of the bookmark list in my task bar. Is there a fix for this anywhere?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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
In Firefox 4 and later [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • My new Photoshop Elements 12 has a RAW file plug-in, but when I try OPEN to select a photograph, there are only generic icons instead of pictures-- I can't tell one photograph from another! How can I fix this so I can tell which photograph I want to open?

    The first thing I did was UPDATE. I have all the latest updates available (according to the updater). The Camera Raw Plug-in says it is version 8.0.
    The RAW files are from a Canon T3i. It's a very common camera, I can't believe it wouldn't be supported.

  • I've down loaded adobe flash player but when I try to veiw video on firefox I'm still told that I need adobe flash player. How do I get firefox to see the flash player download?

    I was trying to view a video I uploaded to facebook using firefox. The system told me to down load adobe flash player. I did but still get the message that I need to down load flash player. How do I get firefox to see the down loaded adobe flash player?

    by installing from within Firefox, Internet Explorer has its own version (Active-X).
    Make sure you are starting in the correct place for Flash
    * http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    If you want to read PDF files in you browser, you might also want
    * http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    After the download,
    #bring up the download manager ("Ctrl+J") and start your installs. As soon as the install comes up,
    #close Firefox with '''File > Exit''' or "Firefox" button > Exit. Give Firefox some time to close.
    #If install does not proceed, '''terminate "firefox.exe"''' and '''"plugin-container.exe"''' from the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
    #* Windows 7 shortcut to the WTM is "Ctrl+Shift+Esc"
    #* or on any Windows system from "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then choose Windows Task Manager.
    #*Make sure that "firefox.exe" is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu, and do the same for "plugin-container.exe" if it is found there.
    #proceed with the install.
    '''Warning''': this is the Adobe site and they have chosen to to provide crapware along with their own product. Only install the product you were planning to install. Do not install additional products: including -- "Free! McAfee Security Scan Plus" or "Google Chrome". Installing Google Chrome on your own and installing it because it is offered on the Adobe site are two different things.
    Find updates for your installed plugins at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ mozilla.com/plugincheck
    -- best to use Adobe's site to really see if their plug-ins are up to date.
    Please fix your caps lock or read what you type, do you think anybody could read my answer if I typed in all caps.
    If the above fails to correct the problem, I would try uninstalling Adobe Flash from your system entirely first, from the control panel then "Programs and Features".

  • How can I get iTunes to not show multiples of the same podcasts in my iPhone?

    Not all, but some have the same episdoe multiple times. Every sync seems to add another one of them. This happens, through iTunes, in my iPhone 5. In iTunes, I show that I have 69 unplayed podcasts. When I sync, I can see it got to 68 for my phone (likely one is in the cloud), but then it flashes and now it shows 113. When I look at the unplayed podcasts, I show that some of them have as many as 17 of the same episode in my phone. When I go to my phone's podcast app, I see it once.
    It doesn't happen to all episodes, and I can't find anything in common between those that it does happen to. The newest update to the podcast app and itunes brought back some features that have been missing for over a year, but this is getting weird.
    iTunes 11.2.1 (1)
    IOS 7.1.1

    After a couple of days, I'm noticing that the repeat(ing) offenders have more than 10 episodes, and seem to keep repeating them every time I sync.
    They only show once in my phone and in the iTunes Podcasts, but through iTunes and looking at what's in my phone is when I see the repeats.
    Even after I've marked a podcast as played, and deleted it from within my phone, as well as telling iTunes to delete the played episodes, it still shows multiples of the played episodes.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it either. They aren't the newest ones either.

  • The telephones numbers do not let me click and call with skype in firefox 5, how do I get firefox 4 again?

    Before with firefox 3 and 4 I could call phone numbers with skype directly off of the web page by clicking the phone number. This feature no longer functions in firefox 5. What do i need to do. When I go to your website I can only download 5. I would like to back up a version if I need to because I use this skype calling numbers function daily. Please help

    Firefox 4.0 is no longer available. You can download to the previous secure version which is 3.6.19 from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.19]
    To ensure a clean installation, please do the following:<br><br>
    #Go to "Programs and Features" in Control Panel and remove "Mozilla Firefox" choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot, open Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox".<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
    Having said that, make a backup of your bookmarks as a precaution as follows:<br><br>
    #Click the orange Firefox button, go to '''Bookmarks''', then '''Show All Bookmarks''' to open the Bookmarks Manager.<br><br>
    #Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
    You can use the same Bookmarks Manager to import the file you saved by choosing "Import HTML".

  • Running iTunes 10.5.3.3 - On my device there are podcast headers with no podcasts in them and I cannot seem to delete them. How can I get rid of these empty podcast subscriptions?

    I have a Classic iPod with current software and I am running iTunes 10.5.3.3. On my device there are Podcast subscriptions but all of the podcasts have been deleted from them. Is there a way to get rid of the header (i.e. the Podcast subscription title)?

    This has happened to a number of users lately.  Usually the only way to remove them to restore the iPod to factory settings.

  • I downloaded to the latest Firefox yesterday 5-5-2011 & everything was screwed up. Uninstalled Firefox now how do I get it back, not the latest version? Been to your site & it will not download. Thanks Pat

    Can't think of anything else to add, just want to download Firefox. The older nor newer versions will not load, I click where it says if downloading does not start, just stays at 0%.

    See;

    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup
    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

    Every time I open iPhoto the dialogue box requiring me to do something before I can use iPhoto, how do I get rid of it?

    Click on the More Info button and ignore the web page, go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the MobileMe account. Next to go the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.  That will stop those messages.

  • My FF desktop has no location bar. Where is it? How can I get to a different website or make a bookmark without it?

    I could not figure out how to get to a web site that I did not have a bookmark for. Nothing worked. I re-read the instructions for creating a bookmark, and determined that I needed the location bar. That should be up near the top. I don't seem to have a location bar on my screen when I run FF. I can't understand how to put a location bar up there. The VIEW legend will offer me the chance to click on TOOLBARS, but there is no location bar in the list offers. Where is it? Where'd it go? How do I get one? Why isn't it on screen? This is nuts.
    Thanks.

    As posted above, make sure that the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • I seem to have deleted Passbook off my iPhone. How can I get it back? I can't see it listed in the appstore anywhere.

    I seem to have deleted Passbook off my iPhone. How can I get it back? I can't see it listed in the appstore anywhere.

    It is not possible to delete any of the bundled apps. You may have moved it to another home screen or inadvertently dropped it into a folder. If you search for the app or reset the home screen layout - Settings/General/Reset - that should bring it back to the default location. There also may be a setting to turn Passbook off in the General/Restrictions, but not having an iPhone with iOS 6 I'm not sure.
