Tabs and options buttons HUGE! HALP!

This is affecting my computer using ANY version of firefox all the way down to v2.1 (the earliest release I've tested.). The tabs and buttons are gigantic and I can't figure out why. This is with the default theme, default add-ons, and default extentions. I've uninstalled firefox, removed all mozilla/mozilla.org/mozzilla-addons registery keys and rebooted and reinstalled. No matter how many times I do this no matter what version of firefox I install it does this. This is the only program affected so I don't believe it is an issue with my PC. IE7/Opera/Chrome/Safari are all working wonderfully but I prefer Firefox for my default browser. Yes, I have a custom shell for my Windows XP but I have disabled it and replaced the original shell and it's still having the issue. Can anyone help me out?
Screenshots from FF4B1 (but remember, it's affecting any installed version).

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Around October 2008

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
If not, see this:
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes]
BTW, running different versions of Firefox without using separate Profiles for each is just asking for problems like that.

UIX: How to get tooltip help on tabs and global buttons?

Our users love tooltip help (the yellow pop-up help text that is displayed when you hold the mouse above an image or hyperlink). The shortDesc attribute sets the tooltip help on most elements. But it doesn't seem to work for (level 1) tabs (i.e. a link element within a tabBar within tabs) and global buttons (i.e. a globalButton element). Is this just not implemented by the UIX renderers or am i missing something?

Adam,
We are NOT using UIX JSP. We have written our
own controller and our render actions take the UIX file
and call the UIX API's to render the page.
In UIX we have the following definition of a global button:
<globalButton icon="images/uitloggen.gif" destination="javascript:go1('global_uitloggen')" shortDesc="uitloggen"/>
It generates (renders as):
<img src="images/uitloggen.gif" border="0">
Note that there is no "alt" attribute in the "img" element.
In UIX we have the following definition of a link within a tabs and tabBar element:
<link text="bestelling" destination="javascript:go1('global_bestellen')"
data:rendered="CLU_BESTELLEN@cqj2ee:USERPRIVS" shortDesc="Hier kunt u ..."/>
It generates (renders as):
<area shape="poly" coords="107,21,118,0,194,0,202,8,202,21" alt="Selecteer deze optie om te gaan naar bestelling." href="javascript:go1('global_bestellen')">
Note that the "alt" attribute has a generated text and doesn't use the value of the shortDesc attribute
in the link element in UIX.

Tab and control buttons do not work in Firefox (they work in other browsers) AND I switched to a new keyboard.

The tab and control buttons are not working the Firefox browser (My browser is up-to-date). The buttons work in IE and Chrome, however, before I realized that, I even switched out my keyboard to a brand new one hoping it would solve the issue.

Thank you--there were a few random extensions I had not added (spyware, maybe?). Once I removed those the issue was fixed!

Tab and option settings

i am baffled by sudden difficulty setting tabs options so windows display correctly, and i don't understand any of the article explanations. I've noticed from using POGO that suddenly when trying to open a game table in spades, the table window is not opening in a pop up window for just the game table... instead it is opening on my browser window as an added tab. This has made using pogo features extremely difficult, and i don't understand how what I assumed was just a java applet pop up has suddenly become executed as a new browsing tab.
I am anything but a geek, and have struggled since losing Windows XP . By my grasp of computers, none of the new database or software instructions are written so they can be understood. by this user. Either Mozilla or Windows 7 seems to change feature or options settings without my awareness that the option has been changed.
The problem specifically now, is opening up a game table window used to open without browsing tab features, and that was simpler. now the new table request is opening as a tab on a browser window and that is just completly handicapping the ability to use the pogo website. I've looked at tools options for tabs and don't understand how any of the choices relate to this navigation problem i'm having with using the pogo site
... please help.

I have corrected all my plug ins and add ons and extensions in firefox. I've gone to control panel and uninstalled duplicates. I've updated all JRE and Java and Shockwave and Flash applications. Mozilla tells me all my add ons exgtensions etc are up to date now. Pogo STILL WILL NOT LOAD A GAME TABLE ANYPLACE BUT IN A BROWSER WINDOW. POGO IS STILL MESSED UP AND I WISH ALL THEIR PROGRAMMING EFFORTS WOULD JUST IMPLODE. THEY ARE THE MOST DISRUPTIVE WEBSITE ON THE WEB. NONE OF THEIR MAINTENANCE AND PROGRAMMAING EVER WORKS CORRECTLY AND ALWAYS CORRECTS MONTHS OF INCORRECT PROCESSING AND JUST PLAIN JUNKY COMPUTER COMMAND/ APPLICATION ACTIVITY. I ALSO THINK WHAT POGO DOES OFTEN CREATES PROGRAMMING BUGS FOR OTHER APPLICATIONS, LIKE CAUSING JAVA AND SHOCKWAVE TO NOT LOAD OR EXECUTE CORRECTL,Y.
DOES ANYONE AT POGO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING?

HT201317 photo stream and options buttons greyed out, windows 7

This has not happened before. I have a Windows 7, 64 bit laptop, and the photo stream button and it's associated options button cannot be selected.
I have uninstalled & re-installed iCloud about 3 times now, ran Malwarebytes, emptied out all photo streams on iPad & iPhone. What should I try next?

The way it worked for me was I went to control panel and uninstalled icloud and itunes, restarted pc and went to the apple site and downloaded icloud and itunes.

"Tab" and "four" buttons stopped working

Hi,
I was using my computer, a black Macbook bought in summer 2006, and suddenly the "tab" button and the number "four" button stopped working. Don't think I pressed anything unusual, was just on safari, and all the other numbers work, and num lock is not on. help... plz?!

Hi, I ran software update and then restarted, that seemed to do the trick! I was in a a panic for a little while there tho, things have been going wrong pretty often with this computer so i was thinking it was done for... anyways, thanks for the quick reply and suggestions!!!

Would like to change my home page. I click on options and my general tab is blank with only the ok and cancel buttons showing. How do I fix this?

In options, under the general tab, it is blank all except the ok and cancel buttons. I can't change my home page. Please help.

Hi cor-el,
Thank you for your reply. Before I had seen your reply. I went into options and under general, all of a sudden it showed what should be there. I closed browser and did it again and it didn't show. It has been blank for roughly two months. Just seems funny that I ask a question and after all this time of not showing what it should, it does, to only be blank again.
I have also been trying to update the flash player. That comes up completely blank as well with nothing showing at all. I did this several times the day before I posted my question. That same day I also hit the reset button for firefox when I was having trouble trying to update the flash player.
I did as you said to do. Nothing has changed. Is there something else that I could try?

Close tab button appears on both sides of tab and I couldn't find the option to fix it in the two addons I suspect of causing this: Tab Mix Plus & TreeStyle Tab

After I switched to Tab Mix plus I started getting the close button on both sides of tabs which causes me to accidentally close them all the time.
I also use TreeStyle Tab and I suspect an option in one of these two addons caused this... Or maybe a conflict?
I tried to solve it myself through the addon options but to no luck.
I'd like to keep both addons because they're great, help please?

Try to ask advice at the Tab Mix Plus forum:

After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

In the previous version of Firefox I could close the window and still have my tabs intact when I reopened it. Why does FF 4 closes all tabs and doesn't give me an option to save them? (And if it does, where do I change the setting?)

In the previous version of Firefox, before closing a window with tabs still open, it asked if I would like to "save and close", "close all tabs" or "cancel" the operation. FF4 will just alert me that I am closing those tabs and ask me is I want to continue, without giving the option to save my research for a later use.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

When clicking on a link on a web page it would go to that page in the same tab and you could use the GO BACK button to bring up the previous page? Now clicking the link always goes to a new tab, can this be fixed.

Tried to change tab options and it didn't help.

It's a good idea to try disabling Flash completely and see whether the problem continues. If it does, then my guess is incorrect. To test that, open this tab:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category
Here you can locate Shockwave Flash and use the Disable button. Keep this tab open for easy access when doing your test.
''If your test confirms that Flash is causing the problem,'' then the other thread has two suggested workarounds. The first is simple to understand (keep some Flash running at all times) but may be inconvenient to do all the time. The second is trickier because it requires editing a file in (or creating and then dragging a file into) a system folder. Fortunately you only need to do it once.

Where can i find the option of, when i close firefox that he saves my current tabs and when i open my firefox i will still have them?

Where can i find the option of, when i close firefox that he saves my current tabs and when i open my firefox i will still have them?

Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows or otherwise have problems with restoring tabs. 
You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.
* Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.

Strange behavior (disappearing buttons, tabs, and more)

Very recently (within the past 3 days and long after installing 10.4.9) Safari on my iMac G5 has been exhibiting very strange behavior.
Some of the symptoms:
- crashes frequently for no apparent reason
- toolbar loses buttons and/or buttons are there but don't react to mouse clicks; sometimes a standard button, like forward, will simply disappear while backward remains
- text in URL field will become 'bolded' and sometimes difficult to read/blurry
- tabs often lose their dividing line boundaries
- auto entries usually not present
I have erased the preference list for Safari in my user library and repaired my permissions without any success.
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any help.

Hi
Please post a crash report - when Safari crashes, the "quit" panel has a "report" button. Select it, then copy/paste the entire contents to your reply.
While you are at it, try the site from another User Account. If you need to create a new account, please follow these steps:
Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari is stable in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.
Post back with results.
