Trouble with google docs wont open in Firefox 5

Hi
When you log onto Google Docs from Firefox 5.0 it tells you to "clear cache and cookies" but there is no instruction for 5.0 and instructions for other versions don't appear to help. No probs when I enter Google docs from Google Chrome
Thanks

''''' "Sometimes the button does not register with Firefox. And sometimes FF acts like I pressed it several times." '''''
Sounds like a mouse on its' way to mouse-heaven. Seriously, the exact symptoms I have seen with a dozen 3 button mouse's (?meese - ?mice) over the last 15 years. <br />
Not registering a click is usually due to a dirty contact. And the "double-click" is when the flat spring looses tension and bounces.
I have had similar happen with the left button, too. But when it happens to that button it is more noticeable much sooner.
I bought a box of a dozen A4D house branded infrared wireless 3-button mouse's for like $24.00 back in 2000 that were on clearance because the driver disk didn't support W2K, only Win95, 98, and NT4. I got newer drivers from the A4D website and wore all 12 out over the 8 or 9 years. I even fixed a few that broke from the parts from other broken mouse's. I still have 6 or 7 of them laying in the "needs to be fixed" box under my workbench. I'll probably never fix them though, the nano receiver USB mouses I have been using for the 4 or 5 years have much better battery life and lately only need one AA battery.

  • Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad? As of today my google calendar not longer appears on either device.

    Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad 2? As of today it no longer shows up. Thanks.

    Let me re-qualify my issue. Under my Google Calendar account I have the main calendar I originally set up when setting up my account. I then set up several other calendars under this same account such as events, work, family and so on. All the calendars showed up on my iPhone and iPad with no problem and worked great for a year and a half now until yesterday. My main calendar does still show up but the others no longer appear on my devices. Going on line to look at my Google calendar/calendars everything is fine with all of them. Any thoughts as to why they no longer show up on my iPhone or iPad? Thanks again.

  • Sync notes with google docs

    Possible?
    I uses notes on my IPAD and MBA.  If it could sync with googles docs it would be perfect

    I have the same message as well but mine appeared after I did a software upgrade and it failed then I had to manually download the last installed software on my phone as iTunes couldnt restore my phone.  Since this happened my iTunes has also said this "bundle" thing and I havent been game enough to sync any notes, contacts or calendars.  I dont know why its there and how to get rid of it.  I dont know if its been caused by a virus etc on either my phone or iTunes, does any one know what the source of this is?  I can only assume that doing a full delete of iTunes from my computer may fix the problem, but then if I do this and it does work does that mean that I lose all of the info on my phone as well as whats in iTunes the next time I sync??  I need help as my work calendars are no longer on my phone.

  • Firefox is opening a .pdf link with Google Docs. How can I change to a different program?

    I am opening a government document from a govt webpage link. It's a pdf document, and the document opens in Google Docs. I do not want it to open in Google Docs, but don't know how to change to a different program.
    I am using current Firefox; Windows 7.

    Thanks for the suggestion, I should've mentioned I'd already tried that without success. I tried clearing everything in the Clear Recent History section actually but the certificate is still remembered.
    I've also just now tried deleting the certificates completely but not even that works - a little concerning. (:

  • How do I disable "open with google docs" for pdf files?

    When I click on a pdf file link, I don't want Google Docs reader to open it because it does not support pdf fill-in forms. I do not know how to disable this in Firefox.

    See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Opening+PDF+files+within+Firefox
    You can use the method shown to change it to use Adobe Reader, Acrobat or another PDF viewer.

  • SIRI Dictation not working with google docs

    I was wondering if anyone knew why siri dication does not work in google docs. It wont work on chrome, works only once on firefox, and wont work in safari. Yes I followed all troubleshooting documents already. Just in the physical google doc when typing a document it does not work. It'll work anywhere else in general, just not on that page. Any ideas? thanks!

    I am assuming that it has to do with Apples feud with Google. I have the same problem, it is begun to appear that Apple is trying to make it as difficult as possible for Apple users to integrate Google applications into their workflows. It is an incredibly frustrating miscalculation on their part and will be a major factor in my decision to discontinue patronage. 

  • Safari 5.1.5 not working with Google Docs

    In a Google text doc, there is a problem with line spacing such that all the lines in the doc are stacked up on the first line making it unreadable and unusable. I've had this problem with the last few releases of Safari but the problem has just become worse.
    If I click anywhere in the body of the doc I get:
         Google Docs error
         This error has been reported to Google and we'll look into it as soon as possible.
         Please try one of these interim solutions:
    Reload this page.
    Download the document by right-clicking on it in the main document list and selecting "Export."
    I'm running Safari in 64-bit so that's not the problem and switching back to 32-bit doesn't fix it.
    I can view the original format of the doc with proper line spacing by selecing File > See original, but can't edit the doc at all.
    Anybody come across a solution or work-around for this?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Try another browser, such as Chrome, Chromium, or Firefox.

  • Font looks distorted and faint with Google Docs

    Hey all. When I create a Google Doc (spreadsheet) the text looks oddly thin, creating this weird, distorted, faint version of Arial 10pt. It only looks like this on Firefox (30.0) and not on Chrome or IE.
    Check out screen shots here:
    Firefox: http://screencast.com/t/rWaA1QXg9jIF
    Chrome & IE: http://screencast.com/t/ujtrpv8C
    Please understand it actually looks a lot worse here in real life. The screen shot blurs the lines a little, making it look similar - when it reality, its VERY different.
    This is a new problem and only happens with newly created Google Doc Spreadsheets. Any help here would be appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Sham

    I'm not even sure why hardware acceleration was disabled. I have now enabled it, and it has helped.
    However, it seems the text is not evenly spaced out. Some are normal space, others are too close together.
    Again, a little odd. Here's a pic: http://screencast.com/t/h8zHtwkP
    Still trying to work though this. Any other feedback or suggestions are welcomed. :-)

  • Safari has issues with google docs

    Hi,
    Recently I am experiencing issues loading google docs in safari (from two different Mac, home and work).
    The problem starts when loading the page of a google doc, the banner "trying to connect" appears and then the page freezes.
    Any clue? 
    Thanks,
    F

    Hi John:
    Have you contacted Charter? Sometimes web programmers do not realize there are other browsers around. FWIW, I also have a rare problem with Safari not playing well with a site. I do exactly what you have done and use an alternate browser (Firefox as well).
    I have had success in contacting the tech support people of a particular problem web site. They sometimes recognize the problem and subsequently apply a fix.

  • Google search wont open from drop down menu

    When I go to Google to search I open the drop down bar to select a previous search and it wont open I have to manually type in the search window to search.

  • IPad Air with Google Docs app

    I have an iPad Air with the Google Doc  App loaded.  In creating a Google Document why is it impossible to SINGLE space within a document????  What is the reasoning why the app does not allow for SINGLE spacing??? 

    Thanks for your efforts but by threshold to wait and have Google Doc developers answer it is short...... I deleted that app and loaded Documents Free by Savy Soda.  It works fine as a document writer allowing for single spacing and many more options......
