Viewing a pdf in Firefox browser has white lines. How can I fix the problem?

Viewing a pdf document in the FireFox browser (other browsers the document is fine) shows white lines though the pictures. I have tried different ways to save the document (printing or save as) as a pdf and I either get white lines or missing content while viewing on Firefox.

Please update to the latest version of Firefox.
*[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
Also make sure that your graphics card drivers and WebGl drivers are up to date
*[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Which pdf viewer are you using?
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
#In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Firefox can't renew it's last tabs and now won't run and let me do a backup

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Is it possible to uninstall the latest kitkat update ("improvement")? If not, how can I fix the problems it has created?

The latest kit kat "improvements" have made using my phone much more frustrating. How can one roll back this operating system update to the previous version? If it is not possible to roll it back, how do I fix the following issues?
1) The battery timing has been greatly diminished.
2) Gmail isn't syncing properly. At least 7 times since the update, upon opening gmail, I see lists of messages that are sometimes over a year old, and not my current ones.
3) The sound slider bar on the open screen has disappeared. It now takes 4 steps in order to get into settings, and temporarily turn off the sound. That is ridiculous when entering a meeting. Not to mention that you have to repeat those steps upon the meeting's end.
4) Searching for a particular contact in people has become more complicated--much easier to select "m" when looking for Mary's info than to have to scroll through the very JITTERY and way too touch sensitive sidebar all the way to the "M's" to even begin to search through the M's. This is way too unwieldy.
5) Emoticon symbol has replaced the symbol to move to the next line in text messaging keyboard. I am not interested in childlike emoticons. I am interested in writing a coherent professional message with appropriate spacing.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

You cannot uninstall Kit Kat from your phone. BTW what kind of phone do you have??

HT4623 My daughter update my iphone using her itunes acct., which caused all her apps to download onto my iphone. Now when it asks for my password it has her email address instead of mine. How can I fix the problem?

My daughter was updating her iphone to the iOS6 and everything went great. So, she was going to update mine. She used her itunes acct. instead of mine and it downloaded all her music and apps onto my iphone. Now when it asks for me to enter my password, it has her email address. How can I fix this???

plug your iphone into your computer with your itunes account signed in to update it, (if you want your own apps ect.) if all you want to do is change accounts signed in on the iphone than simply open settings and scroll down until you see itunes and app stores touch the apple id tip top and signout, sign yourself in. any apps she has "purschased" that you have not.. i imagine will just cease to work.
if you both share the same contacts, it won't be a big deal, however if you have work and her shcools numbers ect, and she just has mom/dad/buddies you may have double numbers and apps and what not by doing this, so if it does become a mess.. just get on itunes log into your account by clicking the store menu in itunes and going down to the account id on the bottom of that menu and just restore your phone.

My marketplace has lost it's Layout! How can I fix the problem?

Hi!
Somehow on 4th March 2015 I experienced a mixture of two problems already known in the forum:
a) https://support.mozilla.org/de/questions/1039948
b) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1027288
First I was not able to get into FF Marketplace using the Marketplace App. It did not move on from the loading screen (so slightly different from b)) Marketplace worked fine when I used the browser like Ralph did suggest in a). Then I deleted the user data of the Marketplace-App in the Application manager. Since then I got into Markeplace again using the App, but Marketplace lost it's Layout. Using the Browser for accessing Marketplace works, but doesn't influence the app.
My phone is Alcatel One Touch Fire E. Firefox OS 1.3.0.0 The last app I updated was BibleZ.
I think resetting the phone could help. But instead of loosing all my data I would rather just use the browser to access marketplace. So could there be another possibility to solve the problem, so that I can use the Marketplace app again? When I had problems with displaying websites, I deleted the cookies and it worked again, but it is not possible in Marketplace app, is it?
Thank's

Thank's for your reply Ralph.
My Problem is solved now, because I updated to Firefeox OS 2.0. The Update was just recently released.

This is an error from my HP scanner. How can I fix the problem? An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.

I recently uploaded the Maverick operating system. I wanted to scan some things on my HP Printer/Scanner and could not . This is the error message I received: An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only. I am a novice with the computer and have no one to help. I hope someone knows an easy fix.
Thank you

This worked for me:
"Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."
"Of course, HP should still update their software, but it's good to know that Apple has it covered for them."

My iTunes program has broken letters, How can I solve the problem?

I bought a new MacBook few days ago.
I set up my MacBook and then set up ipod.
On the first day, it had no problem.
But on the next day, when I launched iTunes, all the letters were not english font, but they were Hebrew and other broken fonts.
How can I solve this serious problem?

Welcome to the Apple forums, Samuel.
How can I solve this serious problem?
Very simply.
You have installed an application which has placed its own copy of the font "Lucida Grande" on the hard disk. This copy of Lucida Grande is causing a conflict with the Mac OS X version - Lucida Grande is provided and used by the Mac OS to display text in menu bars and on buttons.
Open "Font Book" and locate the entry for Lucida Grande. You will see a black dot next to the name - this indicates that the font is duplicated.
Click the triangle to show all instances of the font.
Click on "Preview" in the menu bar and choose "Show Font Info" from the drop down.
Click on one of the instances of Lucida Grande.
In the info window, look at the entry for "Location". If it does NOT say System/Library/Fonts/Lucida Grande delete it.
Do not, under any circumstances delete the font if the location shows up as:
/System/Library/Fonts/Lucida Grande This is the Mac OS X system version.
