When I minimize firefox, the icon at the bottom of window screen disappeared.

* When I minimized the FireFox window, the icon at the bottom of the window screen disappear. I have no way to get the window out anymore, but to initiate another instances of Firefox.
* Recently I found that Firefox start up is tremendously slow. It seems to slow down my pc a lot too.

it says hide in the menu but the window is not showing. the only way to get the window to show is the drag 4 fingers down but then it goes away again if i click on window.

  • When I click the icon at the top left of the page, all I ever get is refresh or close , never the Moztlla Firefox page

    When I click on the icon at the top left of the page all I ever get is refresh or close. never the Mozilla Firefox page. I have downloaded Firefox , but never get any further. What can I do about this problem?

    Firefox supports Vista so that shouldn't be a problem. What version of Firefox are you attempting to install? (From the tags on this ticket it looks like 19.) Can you share the link from which you downloaded Firefox? Did you get it from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/

  • Firefox no longer shows on my full screen. When I rollover the icon on the taskbar, it shows the way it is suipposed to be but it does not ever show full size.

    Firefox was working fine yesterday. Now it's not coming up at all on my full screen but when I rollover the icon on the taskbar a mini screen comes up that shows the way it should be but it doesn't come up on the fuill screen. I did a system restore but it didn't help.

  • Cannot download newer version of Firefox. When I drag the icon over the folder it says "Cannot upgrade. You do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items."

    Everything seems to go as planned according to the steps on the screen except for the last one dragging the icon over the file folder.

    Download the new version you want with other browsers like IE (Windows), Safari (Mac) and remove the last version. Then install the package you downloaded.
    Here you can download version 6.0: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html Download]
    Also for older versions: [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ Here].

  • The other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and now none of the icons for the different websites I normally go to are there?

    As I said, the other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and after doing so none of the icons for the different websites that normally go to are no longer there. Websites such as MSNBC, MSN, Most visited, that entire strip is no longer visible. I tired resetting Firefox and still nothing. Can anyone tell me how to get them to appear again? It's a hassle every time that I want to go to one of those sites I have to type it in the search bar, instead of just clicking on it as I did before. Please keep in mind if you answer, that I'm still learning about these things called computers and not very well versed in some of the things that you experts know:) Thanks

    On Windows XP Firefox shows the menu bar by default and not the orange Firefox menu button that is shown when the menu bar is hidden.<br />
    The menu bar is the toolbar at the top that shows menu items like File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help.<br />
    You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily in case this bar is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
    The Navigation Toolbar shows the Back and forward button and the input field where you type the address of a site that you want to visit (aka location bar) and also has a search bar where you can type items that you want to look up with a search engine (Google).

  • I updated Firefox. Now, I can't get rid of the blue box saying drag drag the icon to the applications folder. Plus another icon to 'eject' firefox opens. Every time I open firefox, they show up. Even Apple Help could not fix it.

    I can close the little blue 'drag' box every time I open Firefox, but that is a hassle, and I know it should not be necessary. When I try to eject the 'peripheral' icon, it says I cannot because Firefox is in use. I have to wait until I close Firefox to be able to eject it off the desktop.

    Hi dgbakker-
    When you open Firefox and go to the Firefox > About menu, does it say that Firefox is up to date? I've seen at least one other person with this issue, and any more detail would be helpful.

  • When I click on a link in an RSS feed it used to indicate that I'd viewed that particular link by changing the icon to the left of the link. It doesn't do that anymore. [SOLVED]

    When I click on a link in an RSS feed it used to indicate that I'd viewed that particular link by changing the icon to the left of the link. It doesn't do that anymore. This started happening right around the time I updated to Firefox 4, but may have been a little before that too. For some things, like news and web comics it's just a little annoying. For important things like looking for new journal articles for my job, it literally makes my job more difficult. So fixing this would make my day.

    I seem to have solved my own problem. When I disabled the add-on "Tab Renamizer" everything started working fine.

  • When I open Firefox, it goes to the first page and then stops, saying "Not Responding" with the cursor spinning. What can I do to fix this? Thanks for any help

    When I open Firefox, it goes to the first page I open, but then stops and says "Not Responding" with the mouse cursor spinning. I hit the close button and it says Windows is searching for a solution (which doesn't come).
    When I open Firefox again, it says:
    Well, this is embarrassing.
    Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.
    You can try:
    Removing one or more tabs that you think may be causing the problem
    Starting an entirely new browsing session
    Any ideas? I gretly appreciate any help. Thanks!!

    What is that first page?
    Can't you open any web pages in Firefox?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off

    How do I stop my MacBook clearing the icons off the desktop when I switch off the machine?

    Hi Matt
    After I create say a word document, file it on my desktop and then shut down my machine. The next time I open up the MacBook the file icon has been removed from the desktop. I can still retrieve the file in a folder labeled with the month I created it. But why has the OS removed it from the desktop and how can I stop it happening?
    It happens to alias icons as well!

    Hi there Fgonzalez2015,
    You may find the camera troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

  • I can no longer open iphoto. When I click on iphot the screen appears and the icon in the centre of the screen continues to rotate . No library  or other item appears on the left.

    I am no longer able to access iphoto. When I click on the icon. The screen opens but remains dark with the spinning icon continuing indefinately. In the light panel on the left hand side there is no list of albums or the library.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 
    Regards

    When I start Firefox, I only get the background of my browser in the Firefox window. I the normal window for 1 second, but then it changes in only the background window. So without toolbar, or navigation. I already reinstalled it, but that doesn't fix the problem.
