When I start Firefox it indicates in the bottom left corner that it is loading my Yahoo homepage, but only shows a white window. If I type in the URL of another site, the same thing occurs. I can only use Firefox by restarting it in safe mode.

I am using Firefox 5.0 with Windows XP SP3. I've had this same configuration for the five or six years I have been using Firefox, and I have not installed a new program in the past few months. I also run AVG automatically every day.

Does this only happen on specific pages?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • No url is showed at the bottom left corner when my mouse cursor is hover a link

    Hello,
    When I went hover a link I used to see the url showed on the bottom left corner, but it has been a while that it is not happening anymore.
    Is it a bug or that feature was removed?
    If it is a bug, how can I fix it?
    Thanks

    Maybe Status-4-Evar isn't working properly or you have changed its settings.

  • When i select a pdf file for download in a webpage instead of automatically downloading the file and opening it using adobe acrobat I get a new blank window in the browser and it says done in the bottom left corner

    when I select a pdf file within a webpage and click to download instead of getting the "download" window and the file automatically opening after download using adobe reader I get a blank webpage (in the same tab) and in the bottom left corner it says"done". No file is downloaded and if I click "back" I just return to the webpage containing the link.

    Aha!  The properties for the plugin file nppdf32.dll for Adobe Reader indicate the file is for Adobe Acrobat.  This misidentification is then used by SeaMonkey as a label in the helper application list. 
    Adobe Reader 11.0.3.37:  nppdf32.dll has version 11.0.3.37.  This is the version in SeaMonkey's plugins folder. 
    Adobe Acrobat 7.0.8.218:  nppdf32.dll has version 7.0.9.50. 
    As for having both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat on the same PC, this generally works providing Reader is installed AFTER Acrobat.  Reader is freeware, and I want to keep it current.  Acrobat is purchaseware, and I cannot afford to keep buying  upgrades or newer versions.

  • Since the latest Firefox update, the Personas icon (brown fox) that appeared in the bottom left corner, has disappeared. Where did it go and how do I get it back?

    I have a Personas account. The brown fox icon was present in the bottom left corner of my screen before the latest version of Firefox downloaded, but is not there anymore. I have to go to the Personas web site now whenever I want to manage my Persona. Previously, all I had to do was click on the brown fox, and do what I wanted to do from there.
    Why has this changed, and how to I put it back to the way it was before?

    Try this:

    You may need to manually add the icon to your toolbar.

  • I've edited my NEF photos in lightroom and have tried to export to a formatted CD. When I try, I have several issues. I either see in the top left corner that the files are ready to go to CD but there is no further instruction or I get the pop up message

    I've edited my NEF photos in lightroom and have tried to export to a formatted CD. When I try, I have several issues. I either see in the top left corner that the files are ready to go to CD but there is no further instruction or I get the pop up message that the files are offline or missing??

    Just for background, in what format are you exporting your images?  Also, are you able to export them to your hard drive in your chosen format?  I haven't tried exporting directly to CD, but if you're able to export to hard drive and copy to CD, that may be one solution.

  • I have the computer on but it froze and in the bottom left corner is a circle type thing. Help

    My computer is on, but is not moving from the beginning stage.  The bottom left corner has a square with a circle in it and a dotted logo in it.  How do I get it to unfreeze?  Thanks

    Hello apottesmen: Do a hard start up. Just unplug the computer. Ounce it is off plug it back in and turn it back on. Computer will start up in safe mode option. Move arrow key to safe mode press enter. Run your anti virus scan while that is running go into c drive and find and remove(delete) any files that were installed with todays date. Usaully I found that a bad malware causes this issue. If you do not want to go through all your files then do a back date recovery to an earler time using recovery manager. After your scan has completed. You should be alright.

  • Screen is blurred and can only see in the bottom left corner

    Please help. I turned my nano on this morning and the screen appears to be blurred. I can see my lists and song information out of the bottom left corner of the screen. If I scroll through by memory, it does actually play the music. This leads me to believe that it is only something wrong with the screen. Has anyone had this happen before? Suggestions?

    Unfortunately, it's possible that your iPod's screen might be broken.
    In that case, you would have to get your iPod's screen replaced if you wanted the problem to be fixed.
    But before you do that, try restoring your iPod, as this might fix the issue, if it does not relate to the physical condition of the screen.
    For information on the restoring process, see this article:

    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Let us know how far you get, or results.

  • [HELP] T61, red and flashing at the bottom-left corner of LCD.

    I only bought this t61 one year ago. The warranty is already expired. :-(
    I found this problem 2 weeks ago. Initially, just a little bit red  showed at the bottom-left corner. Today, it spread to almost half of screen and flashing at same time.
    Dose anybody know what problem causes this?
    how to fix it?
    Thanks  a lot.

    In order to better assist you with your issue please provide us with a screenshot. If you need help to create a screenshot, please see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''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 [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

  • Cant drag artwork into the bottom left corner?

    in version7 i cant seem to drag artwork into the (drag album artwork here) box in the bottom left corner?
    what a pain

    That tooltip should move automatically the the other site of the screen (left or right) if the link is close to the bottom of the screen.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
