Screen miniatures appear instead of normal menues.
I run FF 18 on a laptop with a 2nd screen connected.
As of today when I click on a menu button I don't get the normal menu. Instead I get a miniature picture of my webscreen. I can manouver the cursor and whith it in the right position I get the normal menu in full size. In this situation I have to move arround very cautiously. If I move incorrectly then I'm back at the miniature screen again and have to start all over again.
I have uninstalled FF and all it's settings, addons, bookmarks but the problem remains.
I've tried to disconnect the 2nd screen but the problem remains.
I can provide a screnshot of the problem but haven't found a way to include the picture.
I ran a windows update but I forgot to try activate the hardware accelerator in FF before that. So I don't know if the problem was fixed without running a Win update.
FF runs normally now with hardware accelerator activated.
The win update contained only optional updates. See screenshot.

I keep getting an intermittent error on web pages where a blue box with a question mark appears instead of pictures. For example Facebook and Zappos would load normally on one visit, but if I visit other websites and return I get the blue box instead of pictures. If I restart the problem will go away temporarly. However, normally returnes in time.
HI,
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Tick the box next to: Display images when the page opens.
If that box is already ticked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems loading images, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
Make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

Hello again V.K,
I'm taking the computer to assistance as suggested. Even tho I'm almost 100% sure that this isn't a hardware issue.
Here is why I'm not wasting my time on my affirmative. I'm computer science bacharelor, I know about computer architeture and S.O architeture and also I'm computer developer for more than 10 years now. All behaviors presented have no connection with hardware problems. What I'm trying to say is that I'm not just saying things for saying, I have a logic behind what I say.
For a short example, whenever mouse right click stops working on a specific window/software, if I click on the window top border and drag it around and go back to the window content, the click works again.
Also, my keyboard and mouse work via usb. Usb is working normally. If I plug a usb memory stick it shows that usb is working as it should be.
On windows, right button click is also not working inside any software window, but if I click on start button, icons on desktop, anything on windows epxlorer, it works as it should be. Isnt't there bootcamp underneath windows ?
on top of it, it's a brand new mac, i have it for 5 months.
All these people that have the same problem, do u think all of them have hardware issues? Do you think Apple would keep releasing new computers with hardware problems and they wont have any information/recall for them? and worst, the problems start in a random date ?
This is my first mac and all these problems, being hardware or not, makes me lose all confidence on Apple products.

iPad 2, iOS 5.0.1, iBooks 2.1Hi,
the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1). -
Firefox does not appear on screen when started from the start menu or the shortcuts, but task manager says the process is running.
No - I get the message basically saying "Can't run program while Firefox is running. Please close down Firefox & try again".
I rebooted my computer and it all works now - but that's weird it was happening before. Kinda weirded out that it happened at all.
To avoid that happening again, I still wanna know what to do to avoid it or fix it for next time. Thanks -

My password list no longer appears under the options menu, How do I get it back?
The password manager that used to appear under the options menu has completely disappeared. The little lock icon is also nowhere to be found. Does this have something to do with blur? How do I restore my browser the way it used to be so that I can review my list of stored passwrds? I've tried to look in blur to see if they are there - no luck. I'm not sure how the long the problem has existed. I happened to notice just now when a site that normally remembers my log in (a credit card that I make a payment on each month) failed to display it and of course I couldn't remember, not having actually typed it in for years.
Hi philipp.
Thanks for answering. Here's the entire contents of the page. Probably too much information but I wasn't sure what you needed. I deleted the some of the lines referring to my printer settings because the info exceeded the character limit. I very much doubt they have any relevance to the problem

mixed bag
1. I have a security app on my computer, Flashbrief. I have it checked in the hide column but whenever I turn on the computerit appears in the top menu line.
2. Whenever Iturn on the computer, a new blank document window in MS Word 2011 appears. I do not have this listed in the login items.
3. I have a current model of Apple wireless mouse. It keeps getting stuck in text or e-mails and I have to somehowotherwise move the cursor to break it free.
Help with any of these will be appreciated.
BF1. I have a security app on my computer, Flashbrief. I have it checked in the hide column but whenever I turn on the computerit appears in the top menu line.
I've never heard of this software, and cannot find any reference to it online, which is a bit concerning. What is it supposed to do? There really isn't much need for security software on a Mac.
2. Whenever Iturn on the computer, a new blank document window in MS Word 2011 appears. I do not have this listed in the login items.
In Mac OS X 10.7, any applications left open when you shut down or restart are re-opened at startup, and any documents left open in an app when you quit are re-opened when you launch them again. The former can be controlled by unchecking the box in the restart/shutdown alert:
You will need to do this each time you shut down or restart, it won't remember that setting.
The latter can be deactivated by unchecking the box in System Preferences -> General:

That does not sound normal, but I don't use a mouse with my MBP, so I can't provide a solution, other than to try replacing the batteries in the mouse. -
My Contacts program appears to open, but doesn't display on the screen (it appears to be sitting just above the top right hand corner). any suggestions on how to get it back?
Launch Contacts, then on the "Window" menu select "Zoom". That should maximise the window and give you access to the bottom-right corner where you can resize it, and the bar at the top which you can drag around.

Add In's do not appear in the edit menu
I use Nik filters for LR on my MacBook Pro, OS 10.7.4. I installed the Portraiture add-in. It did not appear in the Photo - Edit menu. I reinstalled it several times. Then I opened the External Editing window and inserted Portraiture. Now the Nik filters do not appear. When I change External Editing back to Nik Color Efex it appears in the edit menu but portraiture does not.
Previously all of my 6 Nik filters appeared in the edit menu. Now only the filter selected in the External Editing window appears in the edit menu. When I clear the menu in External Editing no add-in's appear. It seems that only one add-in at a time can be accessed and that the External Editing screen is the only way to access other add-in's, much too time consuming for an efficient workflow.
On my iMac also 10.7.4 all the Nik and Portraiture add-in's appear in the edit menu.
Is there a fix?Apparently fixed with 10.6.2

Thanks in advanceIf your Mac is one year old it did not come with Lion, so you must have purchased and installed it yourself, or it is not installed.

when i'm entenring a page like facebook the security question appears, i press ad exception and then the page appears nothing like normal, it apears like someone copyed every text and put in Word.
That sounds strange. Are you sure it's the correct site?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
That will open a dialog where you can remove the cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help? -
How come when I look at my text messages, my contacts' phone numbers appear instead of their contact names?
If you're with Verizon, here's what I found on the boards:
Dial *228, press 1 when the nice lady answers and wait until she tells you your phone has been successfully programmed.
Then hang up, and press the home key twice rapidly and delete the open/running apps that appear there - delete from that second screen, NOT from the Dock at the bottom of your home screen! You don't want to delete the programs, you just want to close the open/running apps.
Wait 5 minutes or so, then voila! Mine was fixed! -
Dng icons appear instead of thumbnails
Just recently, when I open up Bridge CS3, DNG icons appear instead of my thumbnails. I have not intentionally changed any settings, so don't know how to clean this up. Once I click on the icon, the photo opens up in Photoshop. Frustrating, since everything has been working fine up until recently. I am not a whiz with computer lingo, so will need real specific instructions!
And if this all is still not working quit Bridge, go to user library - preferences folder and manual drag the "com.adobe.bridge2.plist" file to the trash, then as per post 1 but first prefs and then after restart purge cache using the tools menu.
If still out of luck use the very hard way with manual delete the Bridge cache file. This will delete all your previous caching and that needs to be redone. Up to you to decide if this is worth it. I used it very frequently (once in 6 weeks) in CS3 but not anymore in CS4 :-)
If you want this then go the user library caches folder / Adobe / Bridge CS3 / Cache. Drag this folder to the trash (First back it up if you want so you can replace it if it is not working for you) and restart Bridge (again with option to refresh preferences) this gives you a very fresh start with a new empty cache folder :-) -
