When I'm composing email (Yahoo or Gmail), the apostrophe key engages the QUICK FIND feature.

I'm running Firefox 3.0.19 on a Mac Power PC G5, OS 10.4.11. (I know those are all very outdated.)
Problem: Since I upgrade to new Yahoo mail, when I'm composing a new Yahoo mail message, when I hit the regular apostrophe key, it engages the Firefox keystroke for QUICK FIND. Like, I can't type "don't" without engaging QUICK FIND.
None of my keys like CTRL, shift, Apple, etc. are stuck.
This doesn't happen on other sites or apps (now, for example, I can type "won't," no problem.).
The Firefox help doesn't have a solution.
Have you encountered this problem? Any idea how to fix it?
Thank you!

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    FYI I am referring to my ISP email on the providor's website, although I have not tried opening other email accounts on the updated Firefox.

    etresoft  a long time contributer to Apple Support Communities wrote a very useful app he called etrecheck which helps in diagnosing many problems caused by third party installs etc.. Go to his website, read his information and from there download and run the program according to his instructions

    [Service Pack 2 (14.2.0), 110MB: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29419 -> you don't have to download this]

    These are all pre-required...

  • How do I turn off the "quick find" box in the compose email window?

    I'm surprised to see this has not been asked here as I see many complaints about it on the web.....but no solution.
    I have difficulties when composing emails. The "quick find" box in the lower left of the windows begins to "intercept" my typing. Once it begins I can no longer write in the actual compose box. How do I get rid of it?

  • I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...

    I have set up my airprint wifi printer which works perfectly with the HP eprint app. However, when i view an email and click on the top right arrow button and select "PRINT" on my ipad nothing happens????...
    Also, when im viewing websites and i find something i wish to print, same again, if i simply click on the print option at the top right of the screen nothing happens... the only way I can print is if i copy the weblink of the site page then click on my HP eprint app and paste the web link, then select print, it prints off fine.. but its it such a pain to keep copying and pasting links or screen dumping emails just to print...

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

    My computer is running slow after Yosemite install -but in the Mail program, when I open an email and then open the attachment -all is good -when I close the attachment the Mail program goes away, and I have to reopen it in my Dock -every time.

    I tried this, but no luck. I went to Previous System>Users. There is nothing inside the "Users" folder, so I hit a dead end.
    I can find my new e-mails -- those that came in since I re-installed the system -- in my NEW system (which I did to see if I was correctly understanding the advice), by going to Users>Home>Library>Mail>POP account name>Inbox.
    Let me add a new question: I am running PhotoShop C3. It opens OK, and I can use it, but when it opens I get this message: "One or more files for Adobe Application Support folder are missing. Please re-run the PhotoShop installer."
    I don't like re-installing working programs if I can avoid it, because it always seems to lead to other issues. Any idea what files are missing, and where it/they might be in the Previous System folder?
    thanks

    Until your phone number is verified and activated you won't be able to select it in Caller ID. (You will probably notice that it says "waiting for activation'" under iMessage.)  This has been widely discussed in this forum and there is no one solution that works for everyone.  If you search the forum for "iMessage waiting for activation" you'll get a number of posts on this; you may find a solution that will work for you.  Some of these include:
    Go to Settings>General>Date & Time, make sure Set Automatically is set to On.
    Be sure you are able to send and receive messages.
    Call your carrier to see if they are blocking premium texts or third party texts.
    Also make sure in Settings>General>Date & Time that Set Automatically is turned to ON.  If not turn it on then go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

  • Using CenturyLink webmail and when I open my emails I cannot scroll the body of the email.

    Using my CenturyLink webmail with iPad2 and when I open an email I cannot scroll the body of the email.

    I'm sorry but I'm not at all familiar with centurylink webmail so I don't know what you should be able to see.
    Is there a setting on the server that allows you to open the email in a new window?

    When I look up email addresses in Outlook 2010 on my pc, it only finds cell phones.numbers.    How do I get it to find email addresses automatically?

      Addl question:  when I DO send an email from the address book, they are all coming back with the msg: 
    The following recipient(s) cannot be reached: & None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient.
    But when I type in the exact same address manually, it goes thru just fine.

  • When I try to use spellcheck, I get the "Cannot find the User dictionary". It has always worked in the past and when I go to choose the main dictionary, it just goes back to the same line, cannot find user dictionary.

    When I try to use spellcheck, I get the "Cannot find the User dictionary". It has always worked in the past and when I go to choose the main dictionary, it just goes back to the same line, cannot find user dictionary.

    Have you ever created a user dictionary? You have to manually create one, AppleWorks won't do for you. The user dictionary & any other dictionaries belong in the AppleWorks Essentials folder which belongs in the AppleWorks 6 folder in Applications.
    Deleting & reinstalling AppleWorks from the original disk will not delete your files unless you have saved them in the application folder. The Mac OS creates a separate Documents folder for your files & that is where the documents you created should be.
    Unless all of your documents are AppleWorks 6 word processing documents, Pages alone is not sufficient. The iWork applications - Keynote, Pages & Numbers - can only open AppleWorks 6 presentation, word processing & spreadsheet documents, respectively. They will not open any other type of AppleWorks 6 files or any AppleWorks 5 or any version of ClarisWorks files.
