What is happening to Firefox? So user unfriendly since you changed to Yahoo. I can't print anything from web without first saving to documents. Boo!

For the first time - today i tried to print a map search. Was forced to "save" to documents from which it could be printed. Next needed something from another web site - same story. WHY are you doing this to me? All I want to do is a simple print from the web without getting a big dose of heartburn. Where is my Nexium? I need to take a dozen right now.
Now to go unclutter my documents.

hello, you may have an issue with adware/malware related on your pc (this won't have anything to do with the impending search engine change, which didn't happen yet). please perform all these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Firefox updated itself to 3.6.9 and now I can't print anything from an open page, because HP Smart Web Printing doesn't work with this version. What's a replacement extension?

"An unknown error occurred while printing."

I have the exact same problem. I updated to 3.6.12 and encountered the "blank page" printing problem. I ended up re installing Firefox 3.0.19. Printing works great. Also Firefox 3.5.15 gave the same blank page printing problem. I also installed "Better privacy" and " Ghostery"at the time of updates. These programs do not run under the 3.0.19 version. Not sure if if they are related to the problem. Good luck and hope a solution to the problem comes about.

I can't print anything from Firefox. I get blank pages

Ever since I downloaded the previous update, I can't print anything from Firefox. I just downloaded version 3.6.8 and I have the same problem. I am using a Mac with OS 10.6. Whenever I try to print an email or a web page from Firefox I get a single blank page.
I can print fine from Safari. Firefox worked fine until I installed version3.6.5 (or whatever the previous version was)

Thanks I will check out the site!

Running Firefox 8.0.1 on Mac OSX 10.7.2 & can't print preview of web pages.

I have a MAC desktop running OS 10.7.2 and Firefox 8.0.1. and can't print preview of web pages. On my PC, it's there just fine. (Firefox 8.0 on Windows XP). What can be done to get print preview of web pages for the Mac? Thanks. C Baher

Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' and require at least OS X 10.5 and '''an Intel Mac'''.

The latest version for your ppc mac is 3.6.27 you can download from here:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6/system-requirements/ Firefox 3.6 System Requirements]
1. Download a new copy of the Firefox program(3.6.27) from the above link
2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27).
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

Can't print directly from web pages anymore-what setting needs to be changed?

After doing a recent update for the printer, the program jammed up and I was forced to uninstall then reinstall the printer. Since doing so, whenever I want to print a doc from a website, I right click to print, and a save page comes up-forcing me to save the document somewhere before I can print. I save to desktop, then can print from there. This is an extra step I never had to do before-could always print from the page. What setting do I need to change?

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
It sounds like the printer is not the "Default".
Print to Printer without First Saving to File
Not nearly as common, slightly possible, is that your browser is not picking up a properly set default printer setting.

WHAT is happening with Firefox?????

I have had NOTHING but problems/issues with Firefox in the last week. One day all my tabs disappeared. Support had me start another profile. Two days later all my bookmarks disappeared. The next day I can't print ANYTHING from American Greetings. Today I can't watch a church service on Saddleback. My computer is running so slow I have to reboot twice a day. NONE of this happens when I open the internet on Explorer. I am about to uninstall Firefox if I can't get some answers/help.

I am sorry to hear you are having problems with Firefox.
I do not see any other questions asked by you in this forum. You may note most people on here are volunteers and ordinary users of firefox, which is of course free software.
If you ask your questions, giving a bit more detail, someone will probably try to help you.
* '''Printing'''
**Is it only the one site you have problems printing from ?
** have you printed web pages ok from other sites on the same computer and printer?
** what exactly are you having trouble with, can you give an example, and include the url/link ? and a description of the problem ?
** is the problem site one requiring a login or subscription or fee ?
** see [[Printing a web page]]
* '''Tabs Bookmarks & Profile'''
** it may be too late to do anything now, but often if care is taken some/most profile information is often recoverable, including bookmarks, even when a new profile is created
** it is a wise precaution however to backup such information, and there are several methods of achieving that
** you may be interested in [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
* '''Slow Computer'''
** we have no idea of your computer specification, but firefox is generally fairly undemanding, unless for instance it is used for high resolution video
** you may be interested in [[firefox consumes a lot of cpu resources]]
** if you think firefox is involved with crashes, of the computer or if firefox itself is stopping you may be interested in

What is happening to all the movie artwork since I downloaded iTunes 11? All the art work is missing. They down even show up on my apple TV anymore. This is frustrating !!!!!

What is happening to all the movie artwork since I downloaded iTunes 11? All the art work is missing. They down even show up on my apple TV anymore. This is frustrating !!!!!

Well, all my PAID, bought on iTunes movie poster art is now missing as well in iTunes 11.1.2. My largeish personal movie collection, wherein I hunted down the poster art and manually added it... all still work. Further, I note, in moving one of my processed films between Macs, the cover art is embedded in the H.264 movie file itself. It cannot go away. As a test of this, I transferred one of my files to a PC notebook of a friend, and even iTunes on the PC sees the cover art fine.
This tells us, code wise, movies from the iTunes Store do not have embedded, rather linked poster art assets, and thus, the link within iTunes between movie and poster art has been severed in this release. This is why an incremental update to iTunes can magically restore all the missing cover art.
A note to Apple Programmers Imagine were I Steve Jobs telling you this. (Oh, I am THAT guy who caused a rewrite of the Apple Store. Remember THAT?) Here is the permanent fix to cover art issues: In a hidden, locked (after edit) Unix file stored safely somewhere, you just have iTunes use an OUTBOARD FILE which simply contains the link data for the art. THEN, when ANY new version of iTunes comes along, it just reads that little file, and NO USER is ever left without art. The file is opened and modified as needed, and just locked up after each change.
Further, the poster art is not searchable by name on your computer if you wanted to do a manual add to permanently fix the problem.
From experience, I can tell you manually adding movie poster art, which iTunes then embeds, is painfully slow even on a fast machine. That is because a huge file must be rewritten. This is why Apple may have reticence - keeping user experience positive.
Further, Apple may be using a direct screen dump technology for the poster art, which puts a graphic onscreen without using further memory. Large collections could tank a lesser machine if this was not used.
Well, at least my movies look good in Apple TV.

What is happening with quote substitution in Mail since Mountain Lion?

What is happening with quote substitution in Mail since Mountain Lion? Now, whenever I type an apostrophe and it's replaced with a smart quote, it creates an unwanted space within my word and starts typing from there. It will also revert the font from my template style to helvetica. Annoying as heck! Any thoughts? Turning off smart quote substition in Mail elimates the error, but elimates the smart qoute, too. I'm stumped.

WHATS GONNA HAPPEN WITH IWEB NEXT YEAR WHEN MOBILE ME CHANGE TO ICLOUD?

WHATS GONNA HAPPEN WITH IWEB NEXT YEAR WHEN MOBILE ME CHANGE TO ICLOUD?

Don't use all caps. It's tantamount to shouting and more difficult to read.
It is now confirmed that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
◼ MobileMe Gallery
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
This may be of some interest to you: Life After MobileMe.

My mac keeps freezing when i try and print anything from preview. any ideas as to what the issue is or how to fix it?

my mac keeps freezing when i try and print anything from preview. any ideas as to what the issue is or how to fix it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.

Try deleting your render files and re-rendering the project.
Start with these and let us know how you go.

You just wrote you could hear the recording...
You can take it into an Apple store and have it checked out.
