Onscreen Keyboard and GMail (and other sites)

Couldn't find anything on this in my search - but my onscreen keyboard pops up when i touch the screen (in regular notepad mode when I'm using the physical keyboard). It seems to happen only for certain textboxes on certain pages.
One place for sure when this always happens is GMail when I hit the compose button. When I touch anywhere in the compose box the onscreen keyboard pops up.
This is completely annoying and I don't know how to make it stop.
Is there anyway to completely disable the onscreen keyboard in notepad mode? I would only need it in tablet or other modes.
Cheers

After updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google,yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. How can solve this problem?

after updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google(web ,image,video,map etc),yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. even I cant log out from different sites cz the log out bar is completely disabled. I tried with Firefox 4;5 and 6, same problem exist . I tried by active all add ons for facebook, same problem exist. If I use internet explorer , I don't find such problem with it.
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden?

Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden? A few weeks ago Safari was working OK but now I often have to use Firefox to visit certain webpages.
Anyone else having this same problem?
Is there a quick fix?
I'm using Safari 2.0.4
Thanks.

Hi QuickTimeKirk,
I have WMP version 9, as well. I do not use F4M, for many users f4mac is what helps.
I find some items work while others do not. I always get an alert about the wmp , which version it is, takes very long to load, I find it is not consistant with Safari, as seems the poster of this topic has found.
Quoted from ms Mactopia site:

though 41 errors is not as poor as some, Firefox handles the site better than Safari, imo.
Some sites just work better with Firefox or an other browser.

What you are experiencing is 100% related to Malware.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

i have a mac adobe is installed put on utube and other sites it says blocked plugin

Hello,
What version of Flash Player do you currently have installed? You can check the version installed by going to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html and click the 'Check Now' button. The version installed (plus browser and OS versions) will display.
If the version installed is not the latest (14.0.0.176) it's possible Apple has blocked access (they do this, not Adobe). If you do not have the latest version, please go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the latest version.

If you look at the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads. It appears you are not the only two having this problem.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

After installing Flash Player, I lost sound on Youtube and other sites. How do I fix it?

After installing Flash Player, I lost sound on Youtube and other sites. How do I fix it? I still have sound on some apps.

To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
Operating   system
Browser
Flash   Player version
When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
Windows
Mac
Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
HTML5   video
Non-HTML5 video
Thanks,
Chris

Gmail and other sites stop functioning normally

This has happened to me with Pale Moon, and then I moved back to Firefox (23.0), which worked fine for a few days and then developed the same symptoms:
Google sites don't work correctly. Gmail shows the basic view, telling me to upgrade the browser. Google search doesn't show options, Google Play doesn't show a search bar.
MMORPG.com doesn't let me log in, complaining "Cookies not Detected".
Cookies are on (and are actually set by MMORPG.com, I cleared them and they were recreated) and Javascript is on, everything seems normal, and most sites work fine. However these two problems are enough to drive me crazy (in particular the Google sites problem).
Edit: I noticed that I have problems with some other sites.

Cat layed on my keyboard and now Youtube and other sites don't load properly.

Hi there,
My cat got on my keyboard earlier and started flopping around, and now youtube doesn't look right, as well as other sites. When I run Firefox in safe mode, it does load but disabling the addons and plugins manually doesn't make it work. Did the cat disable something?
Thanks!

Firefox 4 on XP hangs on gmail (and other sites) when flash is installed

Firefox 4 hangs for about 30 to 45 seconds when logging into gmail and some other sites. The problem goes away when flash is uninstalled. This sounds similar to the problem:

However, performing the solution provided (uninstalling and reinstalling after reboot) does not work on my system.

I deleted my cookies and now i can't access gmail facebook and other sites

i deleted my cookies and now i can't access gmail facebook and other sites

Thanks, but I tried that and was directed to set up a new password which I did. But, it still wouldn't let me go to my existing Gmail. I was asked to set up Gmail account. I also tried accessing my Gmail from Yahoo. Failed. Someone suggested setting up another Gmail address so that when you logged on it would ask you which Gmail to open. This didn't work and only made the problem worse. Google Help is no help. I guess the only way to access Gmail is with my iPad, but it just isn't right!

How to lock onscreen keyboard and still access multi-touch functionality?

I want to keep the onscreen keyboard locked and yet be able to use the delete, copy, move, select functions etc that become active only when there is no onscreen keyboard. Any way to do this? If not I hope the folks at Apple add this in their next update. Pretty basic need if one is a power user and wants to edit and enter data quickly.
Also: Drag and drop data from 1 table to another in the same tab would be hugely useful. Can't do it at the moment.
Cheers.

I know of no way to do it now. If you want to make a suggestion to Apple go here:

When I try to view account under the cellular data feature it wont give me an onscreen keyboard and it wont take input from my connected bluetooth keyboard

When I go into "Settings", "Cellular Data" "View Account" when I'm prompted for username and password no on screen keyboard pops up and it will not take input from my bluetooth keyboard. It wont show on screen keyboard even if I have my bluetooth keyboard turned off before I go into settings....

I get this, but the onscreen keyboard returns when I turn off bluetooth, also I found that if you only select the plan first and press next, when the form returns with errors the fields work again.

Firefox 4 crashes when loading pdf and other sites unless I first open it in safe mode and then revert

So firefox 4 crashes when opening in-browser pdfs and a whole host of other sites, even with no addons running.
I've found a fix: start in safe mode, then close and open in normal mode. This always solves the problem.
But '''why?''' What is causing this incredibly annoying problem. I went from happily browsing at high speeds (firefox 3.6) to suddenly finding myself propping my head on my arm, looking at a jammed firefox, trying not to go crazy, for about 2 minutes until it unjams (for pdfs - for the other sites it doesnt unjam) - and the pdf page ends up just black. God forbid I press F5 again lest I want to relive the experience.
This only happens on my work laptop. It's a top of the line laptop. It connects via a remote VPN. I'm not sure if that's relevant but I'm trying to give as much info as possible.

1. You have a pre-release Beta 1 version of what will become Firefox 4 in like 5 or 6 months. Unless you are intending to test it for flaws and report those flaws to help in the development process, don't use it.
2. Did you create a new Profile for 4.0b1, and are you using that Profile with it? ''That isn't done automatically when you install 4.0b1, and those of us who have been doing the "testing" for many years consider a new Profile as the basis of doing out testing.''
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+Profiles]
IMO, Mozilla is making a huge mistake by directly offering these beta versions to the general public.
Also IMO. if you want to play with 4.0b1, use the Portable Firefox 4.0beta version to minimize any conflicts with a currently installed version of Firefox, and to eliminate the need for creating a new Profile for 4.0 Beta #:
Download Firefox Portable Test to your hard drive and double click the '''FirefoxPortableTest_4.0_Beta_#_English.paf.exe''' file. The entire installation (including a new Profile for "Portable") will be self-contained in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\ folder and won't interfere with an "official" version that you already have installed. Your Profile will be in the \Program Files\FirefoxPortableTest\Data\profile\ folder.
The "down side" is that Firefox Portable won't launch if any other version of Firefox is already running.
