Only in Firefox, screen image jumps around.

It is happening as I write this. Very annoying.

You could try updating all of your add-ons first, and restarting firefox, but I'd try a different monitor first. No clue why only firefox would dim though...
There's an experimental add-on called black out that dims firefox but it doesn't look like you're running it.
If you want to cover all of your bases, open the device manager - and have windows check for display driver updates by right clicking it. Could be some strange driver bug.
You could also check your power settings, and tell Windows not to dim the screen - although what you're describing doesn't sound like Windows dimming the screen.

    You didn't, but you are about the 4th person today who has done this. It just wastes my time, and yours, and gets frustrating after awhile.
    I do believe you have a screen/logicboard issue and while you can try Restoring it from backup in iTunes, and then as a new iPhone if that doesn't work, I don't believe it will help.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 Help with image jumping around the screen

    I'm using a trial version of Elements 10 that I'm interested in buying it but 50% of the time when I click on an image so that I can click and drag it around the screen, it jumps off the screen.  I have been using Elements 6 and never had this problem and it is super frustrating.  I'm using a laptop and thought maybe it was my touchpad so i got a mouse and it is still doing the same thing.  Is there a way to fix this problem?  I will stick with Elements 6 if this can't be fixed as it takes me twice as long to edit images since the layers are jumping around and I keep have to kit the "undo" button.

      The editor saved prefs often get corrupted. If resetting all tools doesn’t work you may need to rebuild the editor preferences to resolve any conflicts.
    Hold down the Ctrl+Shift+Alt keys and simultaneously click on the Edit button on the welcome screen. Release the three keys and look behind the welcome screen by closing it. Or hold down the keys whilst double clicking on PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
    You should see a pop up box with the words: Delete Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings File?
    Click on Yes
    Close down Elements and re-open it in the normal way - then wait whilst it rebuilds the preferences.
     

  • My macbook pro screen page jumps around without touching the touch pad

    When I am on Mail or my Firefox Browser the screen keeps jumping forward, back or to another site without my touching the trackpad. (Macbook Pro 2014.  At first I thought it was the Firefox Browser, but it also happens on "mail" (verizon.com).  This instability of the screen has rendered my computer little better than useless.

  • Screen keeps jumping around when I try to do my farming?

    I love fire fox but my screen just keeps jumping around. For instance when I am trying to give gifts to my farmville neighbors. When I press send the whole screen will jump. I will have just a brown on the side of the screen then it slowly comes back. Can you please help. I would hate to go back to the internet.

  • Images Jump Around in Book Module - Has anyone seen this happen?

    I have about 45 tiff files in a book collection saved in the Book module.  Once I added the last few pages, images on one page swapped with images on another page.  In addition, an extra page (images on each side, really two pages)  with the same photos would appear causing me to have duplicate pages.

    I'm having the same problem, and sometimes it jumps to my entire lightroom casche and I have odd images within my book.  I have to go back to "Library" and get my quick collection.  The other thing I notice is that the text adjustment icon doesn't work most of the time, and then when it does work, the program freezes and I need to call on my task manager to close the program.  The padding controls won't stay where I've set them.  If I unlink to move text down only, it stops working, and sometimes it will also freeze.
    Another thing related to "Book" is I can't go back to get another image and add it to my collection once I have saved my book.  It only remembers the images I used at the time I saved, so I have to start all over.
    I know this is a Beta, but hopefully these things will be fixed.  I think it consumes a tremendous amount of RAM, so response is extremely slow, and I have a LOT of RAM.

  • Images jumping around in Safari

    When I play games on my Intel iMac, images will randomly get larger and smaller on the display. Plus I can click on an item in a game several times before the mouse will respond. This doesn't seem to happen anywhere but games in safari. What would be causing that?

    Go step by step and test.
    1. Delete Caches.db
        Close all windows and quit all applications.
        Hold "option" key down and click "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
        Select "Library" from the dropdown.
        Library > Caches > com.apple.Safari > Caches.db
        Right click the Caches.db file and select "Move To Trash.
        Close windows and relaunch Safari.
    2. Empty Caches
        Safari > Preference > Advanced
        Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
        Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
        Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
    3. Delete Cookies
        Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
        Click “Remove All Website Data”.
    4. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
        Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
        Turn on those one by one and test.
    5. Delete Safari .plist file.
       Quit all applications. Click on an empty spot on the desktop to activate Finder.
       Hold the “Option” key down and click the "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
       Select “Library” from the drop down.
       Library > Preferences >  com.apple.Safari.plist
       Right click it and select  "Move  to Trash".  Close Finder window.
       Please don’t empty the Trash.
       Restart. Launch Safari.
      Test Safari.
       If this doesn’t help;
      Put back the com.apple.Safari.plist
       Right click the Trash icon in the Dock and select “Open”
       Right click on the com.apple.Safari.plist and select “Put Back”.

  • Screen Jumping around

    Got my ipad2 in November, all was fine, yesterday the screen started jumping around, going to different apps, pulling up screens.  I tried rebooting, turning it off, removing the cover.  After awhile it was fine, then today, the same thing again.  Help!!

    I don't know if there will be anything that you can try that will solve this problem. There have been some other users that have talked about this phantom screen touching - where the iPad just seems to have a mind of it's own - and the only thing that I can remember from any follow up posts was that the iPads were replaced after showing the behavior to an Apple Store Genius.
    You could try restoring the device, but I don't know if that will do any good at all.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating and restoring iOS software
    If you have done the hard reset - holding the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears - and you restore and the problem persists, you should probably book an appointment at an Apple Store and let one of the employees have a look at the device.

  • Text jumping around in InDesign CS5 attributed to Magic Mouse!

    I am a long time user of Adobe software (beginning with PageMaker) and have been using InDesign CS5 since shortly after it came out.
    Most of my work involves display ads and catalogues for sporting goods stores, so there is a 'ton' of image and text manipulation.
    About 6 weeks ago I started having this problem with text and images jumping around.  It was horrible!
    Anyway, long story short…it was my 'new' Magic Mouse which I purchased the end of Sept.  I went back to using my original wireless mouse and 'no more problems'!
    I went through a very long, drawn out process to get to the bottom of the problem.  Anyone experiencing this problem and using a Magic Mouse you might want to try going back to an older mouse.
    Good Luck!

    Thanks but this has been a known problem for a long long time.

  • My screen keeps moving around with the cursor?

    HI everyone out there. i just got back from my 2 week honeymoon and had my G5 power mac, with a 27inch cinema display powered off the whole time. I turned it on and the screen is zoomed out a little bit. and when I move the mouse cursor around the screen image moves around with it as much as an inch or so. Did I catch a virus? or is there a setting my house guests might have touched, even though i am pretty sure they were not on it at all? Any help will do. I am updating the software right now to make sure it isn't that.

    You've inadvertently hit the key combination for screen zoom, probably. Go into System Preferences -> Universal Access and turn off the zoom function.
    Or, Command-Option-hyphen will unzoom the screen, and Command-option-equals will zoom (which is probably what got accidentally typed).

  • 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 <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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.

  • Mouse & Screen Jump around at various times

    If I left my mouse stand still the mouse cursor will jump around. Also, the screen will automatically switch screens moving to the left or to the right to a new screen or sit there half way. It's happening while typing this message. Also the mouse pad on the laptop is diabled at times.
    Very frustrating as it is difficult to get work done with the mouse jumping around and screen moving in different directions.

    I have the same problem. Brand new imac and I'm new to Lion and hate it so far.  I'm trying to do painstaking graphics work and the window and/or cursor start leaping around.  And I can't figure out any cause. It often happens when I've leaned back to look at the graphic so I'm not touching anything.  Possession? Maybe. Faulty battery? No.
    Sorry to hear that your cursor too has started "acting up." Commiserations. However, I'm glad to read that you've positively identified the fact that a faulty battery is not the culprit. Good on you! I can only reiterate that, when this exact same problem happened on my MacBook all those months ago, my battery replacement (free from Apple, because it was under warranty) stopped the problem.

  • After installing 3.6, Firefox's screen image is drasticallay rreduced, how do I get bact the screen image size that I had with previous Firefox?

    I installed Firefox 3.6 and when I restarted the program the display image size was approximately 2/3 the size of the image provided by the previous version of Firefox.I had to zoom-in 5 times before I could read the text. How can I recover the screen settings that I had with the previous version of Firefox or how can I set new defults for screen image size under Firefox 3.6?

    Hello Michael.
    Hopefully this support article is what you need:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
    In any case, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.
    Also, if you want to use an older version of Firefox, please use Firefox 3.5.11. Only versions 3.5.11 and 3.6.8 are supported, and both contain all the latest security fixes. Using any other version is unsafe and not recommended.

  • UI/Application window is randomly jumping around... often to my 2nd screen

    CS6 running on OSX Lion.
    I am having a frustrating issue with InDesign CS6.
    Frequently the entire application window will jump around... sometimes with the toolbox shifting to my 2nd screen... other times the entire application window jumping to the 2nd screen...
    The only fix I have is to Quit InDesign and restart.
    Does anyone know how to fix this...?

    try this:
    reboot the CPU.
    run the application as normal.
    If the window goes off screen, reset your resolution to the point where you can see the window for the misbehaving application.
    Move the window to the top left of your screen.
    quit the program
    rest resolution to normal.
    run the program.
    does its window appear on screen/where it should be located, not off screen?

  • HTML website - jumping around the screen, haven't seen this before.

    I have just uploaded a site.
    www.surveyplan.com.au. It consists of basic tables which are jumping around when the links are clicked. I have set all the tables to be either 100% or by pixel dimension and either way it still doesn't fix the problem. Seems to be worse on a smaller screen...what a pain in the ***!
    Any help appreciated.

    There is indeed an issue with DW templates and IE, the whole page is redrawn resulting in some flickering (Firefox should not have this problem with your pages). There is a sort of solution for this. It is not a nice one but it may work for you.
    You can add some metatags just below the other meta tag in the head:
    <!-- necessary to remove IE flickering when building up new page -->
    <meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=0.01)">
    <meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=0.01)">
    It results in a smooth transition and will reduce flickering. I searched a few months ago for better solutions but could not find them, so I still use these
    Grtz
