The scroll feature has stopped working on my laptop touchpad in Mozilla Firefox but not Internet Explorer.

The scroll feature was working well on my laptop touchpad but has ceased to work in Firefox. It continues to work well in Internet Explorer. Help!

Its due to the adobe reader add on. I removed adobe reader and installed foxit reader. Now everything seems perfect. My laptop model is model is Acer Aspire 5820 TG and I use synaptics driver.
Solution: (Courtesy - iuliand)
If you have issues with touch-pad scrolling in FF4 do this:
1) disable Adobe Acrobat add-on and test if it works, otherwise
2) install the latest touch-pad driver.
Hope this will help others.
Edit:
If the above does not work, temporarily disable all add-ons in order to check if there is another one that may cause this.
Also, make sure you update to the latest touch-pad driver from the touch-pad manufacturer site (very easy to do if you have a Synaptics). Most of the time drivers from notebook manufacturer support site are NOT up to date.
Keep in mind that you may need to do both things (disable acrobat AND install latest driver). Both are possible causes and may occur at the same time, as it was in my case.
Edit 2:
If you have an ALPS touch-pad and none of the above works, check dog425's post below in this topic. He pointed out a solution found in this thread: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/791829#answer-163071

[Locked] Link colors work in Firefox but not Internet Explorer

http://zenfotoz.com
I have changed the link colors by setting a CSS class to a non default color a:link to the div containing thumbnails. The site behaves as designed in Firefox, but uses default colors in Internet Explorer and no colors in Safari for windows.
Is this a known bug/issue with a workaround or am I just doing this incorrectly?
Thanks,
Erik

The "find" feature has stopped working correctly

For the last few weeks when I use "find on this page" it doesn't work properly. Sometimes it will find the first 2 letters and then say that the word can't be found. I have even put in words that I can see on the page and it says that they don't exist. Even after it has located the first 2 letters. It seems like the problem exists usually between the second and third letter of search.
I am finding this particularly annoying as I am doing internet research and may have a gigantic document that I may only need 1 phrase from and it is making it so that I have to read the entire document. Usually very interesting but REALLY slowing me down.
Is it possible that I have accidentally changed a setting or something?

Make sure that "Match case" on the Find bar (Edit > Find or Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check-mark.

The bookmark feature has stopped working, I can only bookmark my homepage (google search) but nothing else.

Firefox is simply unresponsive when I try to save a page as a bookmark, I have tried clicking the star in the URL bar, using ctrl-D, right clicking on the page, and saving from the bookmarks tab. None of these options do anything at all.
I have tried turning off different add ons but have not had any success. The only time I can get it to save a bookmark is if I bookmark my homepage, then it will save that, but nothing else.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Shuffle feature has stopped working on MacBook

I'm using iTunes 11.1.4 on Mac BookPro to serve as digital music source for home hi-fi audio system. I have over 300 GB of high quality files, mostly Lossless, some AIFF. All of a sudden, the shuffle feature has stopped working. It doesn't work in any format - regular playlist, Smart Playlist, or the entire music library. Whether I hit the icon, or right click on the Playlist and hit "Shuffle Playlist" - nothing happens. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps my iTunes Music file/library has become too large? But can that really be? Any ideas?

The songs will play shuffled but they will display in the sort order, not a shuffled order.
Songs will display;
Song 1
Song 2
Song 3
Song 4
Songs will play; (randomly)
Song 2
Song 3
Song 1
Song 4
I twill play sing 1, then song 49, then song 10

Message "itunes has stopped working". Itunes opens and can read an audio cd but as soon as the "get information" option is selected the message "itunes has stopped working" and the computer freezes or at least slows to a snail's pace.

Hi,
I have a PC running Windows 7 - 64bit OS. I have had iTunes installed since the beginning of the year on this computer and have not had any trouble with it except actually using iTunes but that is a different issue. The other day I inadvertently downloaded "Tuneup" which I don't want or need. I firstly want to say I have no concrete evidence that Tuneup has led to my problems. It may be coincidental that Tuneup and my problems appeared together.
Tonight when I started iTunes, Tuneup took over a quarter of the screen on the right side. I closed this program. When the list of tracks was ready to be loaded from the CD and I went to" file" - "get info" option the message "iTunes has stopped working" would appear. Closing this message resulted in iTunes shutting down. I should say that before I closed the message the computer had essentially ground to a halt. The other curious thing was the behavour of the mouse pointer on the screen - the only place where it was visible was in the "iTunes has stopped working" box. Moving it out of the message box resulted in it disappearing. It would reappear if it were caused to wander into the message box.
I subsequently removed Tuneup (control panel, programs and features, etc...) iTunes had not improved. I then deleted iTunes, firstly saving the library to a file on the desktop. Then I did a fresh(?) install of ITunes but there seems to be no change. A curious thing was even though I had deleted iTunes through the control panel the library was still there as if I had done nothing. The whole thing is a complete mystery and extremely galling.
If someone has had a similar problem I would really like to know what the fixes were.
Thanks for "listening".
Cheers,
Grant Andrews.

I had a similar problem. I'm using 64bit Windows7. The following solution worked for me:
COPY    QTMovieWin.dll
FROM    c:\program files (x86)\common files\apple\apple application support\
INTO     c:\program files (x86)/iTunes
Also, reinstalling Quicktime has worked for others having this same issue.

Element 11face-recognition feature has stopped working, can I unstall and re-install?

Elements 11 face-recognization feature has stopped working. Can I uninstall and reinstall this program on the same computer without being concerned about deactivation and serial number issues?

If people recognition dialog shows you no suggestions, it would help if you rename breezesession.dat file to say breezesession.dat.old and check if FR runs fine now.
To find this file go to Help > System Info in Elements Organizer and see your catalog location. Within the catalog folder, there is a BreezeData folder which contains breezesession.dat.
Thanks

'Password Attempts' security feature has stopped working

The problem is that the password attempts feature has stopped working.
When setting the password there is also a drop down box to set the number of password attempts (defaults to 10). When locked (or on power up) the blackberry prompts for a password. My 'phone used to count down the invalid attempts (periodically prompting to type the word 'blackberry, threatening to wipe and reset the 'phone if all attempts were used up). Now it does not do this - it did intermittently and erratically a few times - but now it will quite simply let you try as many passwords as you like until you put the correct one in (and it is duly unlocked). No indication is given on the screen as to how many attempts have been made.
I have updated the Blackberry firmware (to the version given above), with the same result.
This is really strange - I would expect this to be a software problem. The firmware update wasn't done under ideal conditions - I could retry this.

Are you accessing the video podcast through the Videos menu or through the Podcasts menu? It's accessible through both, but will only play as an audio file if you select it from the Podcast menu.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

I am running windows 7. My itunes keep shutting down on me. I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working What can I do?

I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working. A problem has caused itunes to stop working correctly. What can be the cause?

Hello Main Event,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I found this article while researching iTunes quitting unexpectedly on Windows 7 and feel it will help to resolve the issue here.
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
It starts with troubleshooting 3rd party plug ins, then moves on to account troubleshooting if needed.
Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any inference with plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
If you see the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the Create a New User Account section below. If you do not experience the same issue, consult iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-insfor steps on how to remove third-party plug-ins.
Take care,
Sterling
