The find function is not working

When I use the Find Function [CTRL +F] the word I am looking for is not found in the body of the web page - even when I know the word is there.

Sometimes the "Match case" button on the find bar gets checked, so make sure that isn't the problem. Some pages also have multiple frames and I've noticed Firefox sometimes doesn't search in all the frames. If there's a particular site where you see this, could you post the URL?

  • The Find function does not work with one of my pdf files

    I uninstalled whatever version of the reader that had been my computer at installed 11.0.06. Same problem. Seems like the Find function has a problem with just one of my many pdf files.
    For the problem file, the PDF Producer was IIPDFLib2.x, version 1.5. Fast Web View: Yes.
    Windows 8.1

    I can not select any text, either individual letters or sequences of letters. If I left-click and drag while holding the left button down, I generate a rectangular selection. I can then Ctrl-C the selection and paste it in Word.
    So it is a image, with a pdf filename ending rather than jpg or something similar. That probably also explains why the image quality is much worse than with genuine PDF files.
    Thanks,

  • The download function is not working....!! When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads...

    The download function is not working....!! I don't use any add-ons like idm or dap,etc.... When I click on something like download a doc,pdf or any such file, the firefox just doesn't respond, and when I checked the download, i.e. cntrl+j, I don't find anything in the downloads... I am currently using Firefox 7.0.1....... Nothing is being downloaded, and I am forced to use IE8 for everything... I even tried re-installing, but doesn't help... I am using Windows 7

    TonyE is correct the plugin version comes with Adobe's Reader X.
    The failure in communication is two parted:
    1. Reader X is not Acrobat (Mozilla Plugin Checker)
    2. Acrobat is not mentioned in the Reader X download Page (Adobe)
    therefore confused clients.
    For readers '''CAUTION''' check the minimum requirements for Reader X.
    Here: [http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/tech-specs.html Adobe's Reader X requirements link]
    Do not waste the time to download (80+MB and Site is Slow) if your machine does not have the resources to execute it. ie. '''aging''' Hardware
    Unfortunately the Adobe DLM only checks the requirements after it has
    downloaded BEFORE the install occurs.
    This is '''very expensive''' for both the sender and receiver
    It might be why they called it READER X and READER 9 will not sense an update...

  • Since I installed Lion on my macbook the LED light does not pulse when I close the screen - the sleep function does not work.

    Since I installed Lion on my macbook the LED light does not pulse when I close the screen - the sleep function does not work neither when chosen after pressing the button nor chosen in the apple menu..

    I have had the same problem but on another forum it was suggested that disabling internet sharing would solve this. This fix seems to work on my machine - why it works I do not understand

  • How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    Sorry I had to reply through your profile Gail from Maine, my PC has java issues. In any event, when I delete them directly from my device everything is perfect and cool. However, in the rare instance I want to add new music that I actually buy in stores (I know, quite the unique and old-fashioned idea...but hey Im an audiophile) once I upload the tunes, everytime I sync my library it re-adds everything that I spent hours deleting. In a perfect world, I thought I could maintain a massive iTunes Library, and add or delete (remove) songs from my iPhone to save both memory or keep my iPhone selections more current/apt to my musical "tastes" at that time. I know about the whole playlist thing, but thought there might be an easier way. ie - checking/un-checking the little box next to the song name, and then doing a sync. Again, everytime I do this however, whether everything is checked or un-checked it adds the entire library! So frustrating. Any suggestions. Thank you graiously in advance for your help.

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Clicking in the "Finder" window will not work

    Hello everyone! I'm hoping you guys will be able to help me so I won't have to make ANOTHER trip to the Genius Bar.
    Recently I had my trackpad replaced at the Apple Store because I found that it was not registering when I was clicking (however, it would allow me to "tap" on it). I just got my computer back today and I'm happy to say that my trackpad is clicking perfectly...for the most part. It's registering when I click in all the programs, Firefox, Word, etc. HOWEVER, whenever I click on the "Finder" window icon on the bottom of my screen, my clicks aren't working. I can click outside of the box and to other "devices" or "places" in the window, but when I'm trying to click on "documents", "music", "pictures" etc within the "finder" window, it doesn't let me click (even when I change it to "tap" clicking, it won't even open the folders). Does anyone know why this is happening? I'm hoping it's an easy fix so I won't have to go all the way to the Apple Store, however, I'm a teacher and I often use "MY DOCUMENTS" frequently, so me not being able to click on it is quite aggrivating.
    Thanks everyone!

  • The zoom function is not working with lenovo A700 computer

    I have a lenovo A700 desktop computer with a touch screen interface. I recently downloaded the newest version of Firefox (4.0.1) and now the touch screen zoom in/out function with webpages is not working. This function is working with IE8 on the same computer so there seems to be something wrong with Firefox. It was working with the previous version of Firefox as well. Please help, thanks.

    jotan832,
    Have you tried restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new phone? Sometimes these issues can be software based. More information on the restore process can be found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    To set up appointments for the Apple Store online, visit http://www.apple.com/retail/ to locate your store website, then choose the Concierge.

  • How can I perform the LINEST function using the new version of Numbers? The old method of using "command enter" to complete the array function does not work. Please help ASAP!!!

    LINEST function using Numbers for Mac

    Thank you for your help. This page is somewhat helpful, but I still don't quite understand.  I am using the Numbers program, and my assignment calls for me to use the LINEST function to return a set of 10 values. 
    When I googled how to do this, a lot of pages mentioned hitting "command+enter" to complete the array function, but they were using an older version of Numbers and it doesn't do anything when I try it in the new version.  I tried using "Index" with LINEST, and i've managed to get about 5 values out of it.

  • InDesign CS6: The "find" function doesn't work in "Open a file" dialog box...

    I am using CS6 on OSX 10.7.5. When I try to search in the OPEN DIALOG box, it NEVER lists anything, not even a close match. If I however search the SEARCH feature on OSX it always finds what I'm looking for. Is there a setting that I have to change to get this to work or is it a glitch? thanks so much!
