Problem with scrolling using my touchpad with the new Firefox update

I just updated Firefox to 9.o.1, I run Windows 7 and I'm using a HP G62 Notebook PC. Ever since I have updated, I can no longer scroll on webpages using my touchpad. If I use an external mouse, I have no problems. I have also not had any problems with other applications, so I assume that this problem is related to the new update. Is there anything that I can do to fix this now, or will I have to wait for the next update?

  • There are problems w/ my iPhone first generation w/ the new July updates.

    There are problems w/ my iPhone first generation w/ the new July updates. The phone runs slow now. Could not play certain songs on iPod. phone reset back to the home screen when I go to certain sites on the Internet. Use to be able to go on the Internet on the 7 train and the phone freezes sometimes.
    The thing that ***** is that if u don't have wi-fi u can't use the iTunes icon and utube is not clear. Utube ***** anyway. The thing that would make the phone offical is if the iPhone had cable tv.

    I hope someone can answer this one. My 1st gen was doing the exact same s*. and now it's completley dead. Even when you do a hard boot with both top and home buttons it gives you the apple of death. I've let it sit until the battery goes out.
    I'm a network analyst/engineer and I'm stumped. I've tried everything. I finally gave in and set up and appointment with a "genius." I have a feeling they're gonna have to replace it or something. It wont even register on a mac or win laptop to do a reset. I'm screwed.
    I expect to hear more about this issue. I almost thing the firmware might not be compatible with some of the hardware???
    might have to give in and buy a new one.....

    I am unable to open certain pages on sites. I have to switch over to IE because the new Firefox update is not accomodated on their websites! When will this be fixed... sites included Ameritrade, FAFSA, and others...

    First and foremost, you should update to 3.6.17 because the version you're running at the moment is insecure and exposes your system to attack. Update via '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates'''.
    That may even fix the problem since several minor bugs were also fixed in later versions.
    Similarly, after updating, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update those which are necessary.
    If the problem persists, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
    I didn't experience a problem myself accessing any of those sites you mentioned. See screenshot.

  • My scroll feature of the Lenovo ThinkPad(red scroll) is not working in the new Firefox 4. It was working fine in 3.6. Can you please fix this as this is very important feature.

    The scroll feature(middle button) is not working on the new firefox 4. So because of this I need to move the scroll bar to move the page. This is very irritating problem, if you are a guy who uses the middle button to scroll. Can you please fix this..
    Thanks!!!

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.

  • Is the new Firefox update the cause for my iBook freezing up?

    I have an iBook (the last model before they were discontinued) running OSX 10.4 and have noticed that it has been freezing up, forcing me to do a hard reset, ever since I downloaded the latest Firefox update.
    Sometimes it seems like the screen will go to sleep and won't wake up, also forcing a hard reset.
    I have done some preliminary googling but I don't think I am using the right terms to get meaningful answers.
    Is this a known issue? If so, can I uninstall the update? Or is it something else that I can fix? I have Applecare, but it might have expired by now.
    Haven't noticed the problem in Safari, although it's only been since last night that I switched browsers and I may just not have used it long enough for the issues to surface.

    Hi Liz!
    The Firefox update, and your issue, coming about in close proximity, may just be a coincidence.
    Exactly which model iBook G4 is it?
    What is the Processor speed?
    What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
    How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
    What peripherals do you have connected? A keyboard, mouse, printer, external drive or modem, router, etc?
    Have you made any additional changes, like upgrading the system, updated or installed any other applications or programs, etc?
    Have there been any unusual occurences, like freezes, crashes, power outages, etc?
    Insufficient available space, can cause performance issues, system corruption, and possible loss of data.
    Depending on Mac system usage habits, it is a general recommendation, to keep 10% to as much as 20%, of the Total capacity, available at all times.
    Review the suggestions, in the documents that I have linked to below.
    Authored by Dr Smoke:
    Problems From Insufficient RAM And Free Hard Disk Space
    Freeing Space On Your Mac OS X Startup Disk
    Have you ever run any routine Maintenance procedures, as suggested in the articles linked to below?
    Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System Maintenance, authored by Gulliver
    Maintaining Mac OS X, authored by Dr Smoke
    Is the iBook shutdown overnight, or does it run 24/7?
    If you turn the Mac off nightly, the Background Maintenance Tasks, may not run on a timely basis.
    These can also be run, using a Third-Party utility, or manually using Terminal, to run the CRON Commands.
    I use MacJanitor, when necessary.
    INSTRUCTIONS TO RUN CRON MANUAL COMMANDS
    Quit all applications/programs.
    Navigate to HD > Applications > Utilities.
    Double click on Terminal, to open.
    At the prompt, type:
    sudo periodic daily
    Press Return.
    Enter your Admin password when prompted, then press Return.
    This will execute the daily script that is sheduled to run every night.
    When completed, repeat this procedure, but change the command to:
    sudo periodic weekly
    This one rebuilds a database or two, and usually takes somewhat longer to complete. It is scheduled to run once a week.
    Repeat again, with command:
    sudo periodic monthly
    Or they can all be run in one pass, which is preferable, with this command:
    sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
    When the tasks complete, and return to the prompt, you may quit Terminal.
    Restart the Mac, and run Repair Permissions.
    TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
    1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
    2.Click First Aid.
    3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
    Rerun RP, until the only messages reported, are listed here Spurious Permissions Errors Using: 10.4.x, authored by Michael Conniff.
    When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".

  • I play pogo. Since the new firefox update, when I click on a gameroom firefox closes down leaving me looking at my desktop. I hate this.

    My question pretty much says it all. I have this same problem in both the newly updated version and the previous version, but only since the update. I never experienced this issue until the update.

    It sounds like Firefox crashes.
    Can you give me your crash reports?
    #Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
    #Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and paste them into your response here.
    If you don't have any crash reports listed at about:crashes, move on to this.
    Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
    *'''Windows/Mac''': Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
    *'''Linux''': Run ''firefox -safe-mode'' in the Terminal/Konsole
    If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.

  • Since the new firefox update, i keep getting the browser support message re "password bank".

    I do NOT want to change my laptop fingerprint sign-on. How do I get rid of the firefox popup? I've restarted several times and it is still there. Extremely annoying!

    Disable your firewall/security software.

  • A site that I use regularly has buttons that I can use to navigate - but 1 has disappeared since the last FireFox update - and I can't use it anymore.

    For 2 years I've been using a website that I order my products through. One of the buttons is my '''account''', the other is the '''catalogue '''(many others besides those - but those are the ones I use frequently).
    After the last FireFox update (3.6.15) - suddenly the "'''catalogue'''" button disappeared. I thought it was a problem with the company site, but when they accessed my account (using an older version of FireFox) - the catalogue button showed up.
    I've tried clearing my cache and restarting firefox - multiple times. No dice. Can't get it to come back.
    I have screenshots to show the problem - with my computer and with my suppliers computer.

  • Why is my IBM Scroll button no longer working with the new Firefox?

    I just downloaded the new Firefox onto my IBM ThinkPad. This laptop has a center button for the mouse that I have been able to use to scroll down webpages on the previous version of Firefox installed on my computer. However, with the new version it no longer works. Is it because there is a setting that was automatically programed and is something I can change or is the permanent feature of the new Firefox. If it is the latter, then I am disappointed and would rather use the older Firefox version.

    Re-installing Pages through Appstore has fixed the problem.
    Thank you

    Since the most recent Firefox update 3.6.8 my banking institution no longer shows as having a secure encrypted connection, however, my bank assures me all is well with their certificates and that is a problem with the new Firefox browser update, can you give me some idea why it is doing this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Right after the new Firefox update

    Hello Anne.
    Can you please try it in a new (temporary) Firefox profile and see if the issue is still present? See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles this article] to know how to create a new Firefox profile. Please report back the results.

  • I got a new iphone 5c for Xmas and my laptop is registered with my iphone 4, which I no longer use or have hence the new phone lol. How do I remove the old info and register my new phone? Will it let me?

    You do not register the phone with the laptop. If you are using the same Apple ID on the new phone as the old, you will have no trouble. Connect the phone and you can restore from a backup of the old phone, or just sync your new phone if it is already set up, with the laptop, managing your content in iTunes.

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

    Have you attempted an iTunes restore and setting up as a new device? Sometimes battery life issues can be caused by corrupted iOS software.
