What will keep my screen (not the cursor) from scrolling to the top?
My laptop screen constantly scrolls to the top whether I'm in e-mail, the web, or any documents. I tried Internet Explorer with the same results. Does anyone have a suggestion?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
You may have switched on caret browsing.

You can toggle caret browsing on/off by pressing F7 (Mac: fn + F7).
*Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General > Accessibility: [ ] "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages"
Note that this is an accessibility feature of Firefox.

When composing an email the cursor disappears behind the keyboard using iOS 8. Is there a way to have it scroll up so that I can see what I am typing? Was not a problem with iOS 7
u can slide the message viewer all the way over to the RIGHT, thus hiding the message from view, and then delete at will from the expanded left column.

Interactive Form jumps back to the cursor when scrolling with the mouse
In an interactive form over multiple pages, the user should enter some fields and will then scroll down - usually with the mouse's scrollwheel. As long as the cursor is in an active field, adobe reader keeps jumping back to the place the cursor is active... So it is not possible to scroll down.
Scrolling down by sidebar works fine.
As a workaround, I can place the cursor outside of any entry field (just by klicking any text within the form) and scrolling down works fine again.
I guess this is a "feature" and not a bug - but it is driving our users crazy!
Any suggestions or ideas about how I could get scrolling to work will be highly appreciated.
Adobe Livecycle Designer ES 8.1.2
Adobe Reader 9.4.0Hi Nicolas,
I am using 8.2.3 ADLC with 9.X reader (for sure this may not be any version dependent as such)
I didn't find any such behavior, and I never heard about it earlier.
Some how I feel this is not a feature nor bug in adobe, its something with your form. may be there is a set focus cdoe somewhere or so.
can you send me the form to test it in my local pc ...?
cheers,

Cursor continuously scrolling to the right
Last night i downloaded the latest Ipod update and when i went to install it some funky and weird stuff started happening on my mac. Its almost as if my spacebar is continually being pressed and i cant type anything. I tried deleting the update as well as rebooting but as soon as the mac starts up the problems occurs. Its so bad now that i cant even type in my password to log into my mac. If anyone can hlep it would be appreciated, As i said its almost as if my spacebar is being pressed the whole time. Ive tried checking if any of the keys are depressed but i cant see anything noticable. I opened up a text doc and no characters show up but the cursor just scrolls to the right.
Hmmm there might be ill have to check when i get home. Didnt think of that but thanks for your help. Ill keep you updated.

i use Google home page as my firefox home page. often i find that although the cursor is flashing in the serch box, unless that box has been clicked in to enable it, typing goes to the nearest topic in the bookmark list instead of accepting the typing. how to stop it from happening? why not stop the cursor from appearing in the search box unless you have clicked in it?
Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive. -
My imac will not load after I enter my password. The only thing I get is the arrow from my mouse on top of a blank white screen. Can anyone tell me what this is? I've restarted and turned off several times. I left it on in this state for 8 hours hoping it would reload and work. No luck.
Hello KCC4ME,
You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).

I'm not sure what happened. However, I can never see the URL in the address bar anymore.
I go from page to page, and the URL shows only for a split second, then disappers.
All the address bar says is "Search or enter address"
I copy and paste a lot of URL links for work, so this makes it very painful and a hassle now.
Where now i need to go back, right click on a link, and do "copy link location".
Where as i used to just go up to the address bar and copy the URL.
Also, I notice now when I start typing on certain search boxes.
The cursor automatically jumps to the URL address bar as soon as I start typing. Which is really annoying.
It will only do it once it seems....but its annoying when i try to type a search...only to see that i've been typing in the URL address box cus it jumped up there.
PLEASE HELP!!!!Try some basic troubleshooting.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>

'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one space one in Notes?
How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one Space one in Notes?
I am currently working on a MacBook Pro connected by Wi-Fi or Blue Tooth to my 16GB iPhone 4S; and supposedly to iCloud. I install every upgrade on each computer till the computer can take no more. My current MacBook Pro continues to accept upgrades.
I have been dealing with Address Book foibles since it first came out and the problems seem to get worse rather than resolved.
Problem #1: When a Company Name is checked to take precedence over a personal name the record/file does not surface during searches. This has happened for years on all my Macs, including most recently my MacBook Pro and its predecessor PowerBook G4. How do I fix this?
Problem #2: The Printing Defaults for Address Book Files are not useful and I can find no way to change them to my own preferences once and for all. I must reset them for every file every time I choose to print a file. Is there some way to set the defaults to MY preferences and only occasionally reset them according to my needs?
Problem #3: When entering information in "Notes" the cursor randomly and spontaneously goes to line one space one as I am entering information. How do I stop this? Then when I cut and paste the misplaced text to where it belongs it may or may not return to once again begin at line one space one and following.
Problem #4: When Printing a Record/File from Address Book I would like to use the whole 8.5" x 11" page. Instead it prints on an 8.5" x 11" page in three columns. Is there a way to format the output? I have not found one and the Mac 'Geniuses' do not know of any.
Problem #5: Subsequent to one of the upgrades in the last year or so, the search feature does not work. (I have had this computer since May 2011). No matter what I type in the search line I am stuck in the 'All' Directory. To find anyone or anything I must scroll through the address book manually. Is there a fix to this?
Problem #6: Sometimes, when I try to sync my MacBook Pro and my iPhone, the records simply duplicate. How d I undo this without manually deleting the duplicates?
Problem #7: Does anyone know of a third party Address-Book-type App that is better than the Apple version and can easily import over 3000 contacts information?'''I had the same problem when I updated to firefox 4. This is how i fixed it:'''
The problem seems to be caused by the 'New Tab Homepage' add on. So:
# Disable or remove the 'New Tab Homepage' add on and restart firefox.
# Download and install the firefox add on called 'NewTabURL' and restart firefox.
# Click on the Options button for NewTabURL and uncheck 'Select location bar after loading new tab'
# Under the 'Default URL for new tabs' heading, choose 'Home Page'
# Click on the Save button.
Hopefully, problem solved! -
I have tried following the advice offered in the few different threads I have found on this but nothing fixes it. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window and/or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I fixed the issue for new tabs via about:config but this doesn't work for new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In new private windows the cursor is in the address bar.
The search box in about:home steals the cursor. Changing your home page to something else will cause the cursor to start in the address bar for new windows.

I have just bought a new I pad 3 and want to give my I pad 2 to a friend. What will I have to do to clear my info on the old I pad and set it up on my new one? How are apple I D effected and passwords cleared?
Any advice welcome.To clear to old before passing it on, open the Settings app and tap on General (left hand menu). Scroll down and tap on settings, then tap on Erase All Content and Settings.
If you have been synching the iPad to iTunes on a computer, you should also have backed it up. If you havn't backed it, you will want to do so before clearing the settings and use the back up to set up your new iPad.

With Firefox 7, no "What's New" or "Release Notes" can be found anywhere in the app or on the web site! I just updated my software to version 7, but I can't find out why I should have done it, or what has changed.

2 Some movies may not be available from iTunes in the Cloud. These movies, if purchased in HD, will download both the HD and SD versions for you to sync to your compatible iPod and iOS devices. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
Do you have a question ? Not all content is available for re-downloading e.g. if the content provider (or Apple) removes them from the store, and there are also some film studios (in countries where film re-downlaoding is possible) who haven't agreed to allow their films to be re-downloaded.
Otherwise, re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 -
My webmail is trough telus.net.
when I reply to an email, a new window opens and the cursor is now located at the very end of the window. with all previous versions of Firefox the cursor was positioned at the very beginning of the window.
Are there any settings or fixes for this annoyance?Press the Home key.

I have just taken the latest update to 22.0 from the last version.
In the past when i opened up a new tab the cursor would jump to the beginning of the URL and i could start typing. Now the cursor goes to the back of the URL and i have to double click the URL to type in a new one.
Let me try to be as clear as i can. I have had firebox set for long time so when i open a new tab google.com comes up, and google is also my home page.
I have not installed any options for a long time either. And nothing that has to do with tabs.
What i remember is as i opened a new tab the URL of it would turn blue and i could start typing in a new URL. Now when i open a new tab i see google.com come up in blue, then the url turns to https://www.google.com/ and the blue goes away and the cursor is at the end of the URL. I now have to double click the URL to type.I switched to the "about blank" and then use my home icon to get to Google.com
It is not quit as good as it was but usable.
I think you should add two new check boxes in options under "tabs"
1 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the URL.
2 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the search box.
This will take care of the majority of people. -
How to determine the cursor record count before the "open cursor"?
Is it possible to determine the record count of an explicit cursor without running a count()? Say, my cursor definition is something like this,
CURSOR cur_vehicle
IS
SELECT os.order_id, os.order_item, vs.part_id
vs.part_num,
vs.iso_num,
vs.model_yr
vs.dealer_cde,
vs.cust_cde,
px.plant_cd
FROM parts_source vs,
orders_source os,
plant_tbl_crossref px
wHERE os.order_id = vs.order_id
AND vs.part_id = os.part_id
AND vs.plant_cde = px.plant_cde
ORDER BY os.order_id;
I want to log the count of records returned by the above cursor prior to the first fetch, without running a count(1) for the query in cursor select.
I know adding " Count(1) over(order by null) " in the cursor SELECT will bring it. But that does not help me log the record count to some log file or table before opening the cursor for processing.
To conclude, my objective is to update the record count of cursor in some table before processingsarvan wrote:
Is it possible to determine the record count of an explicit cursor without running a count()?
..snipped..No. The only way to do it correctly is inside that select.
Each select is a consistent read. Which means that if this is done as 2 select statements, the 1st select can see a different version of the data than the 2nd select statement. does. So if you want a count and that to be consistent and on the same version of the data than the select, it has to be done as part of the select.
Also consider what a cursor is. It is not a result set of sorts that is created in memory upfront - with a convenient interface that tells you the size/number of rows of that result set.
A cursor is basically a program that reads database data as input and produce output. A fetch from a cursor is an instruction for this program to execute and output data.
There's no data set that is created by the cursor from which the count can be determined. The cursor program does have state variables - like +%RowCount+ that specifies how many rows the cursor has thus far output. And you need to run that cursor to the end (no more output) in order to determine the total number of rows output by the cursor.
