Why am I unable to enter keyboard strokes for messages in Yahoo when I can otherwise manage my Yahoo messages and when this does not happen with Internet Explo?

I can write and send emails in Yahoo mail when I use Internet Explorer. But I hate Internet Explorer. For the past two days, I have been unable to use the keyboard to enter email recipients, unable to enter anything in the cc, bcc or subject lines, and unable to enter any text in the body of the message. I have installed the Mozilla program to improve the inter-face with Yahoo, but that has not helped.

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

When I open another window the cursor defaults to the bottom of the page instead of the top why and how can I fix it? It is a pain to have to keep scrolling to the top all the time. This does not happen with Chrome or IE.

I can send you a screen shot if that would be helpful.
I have noticed that the emails sent out of S1 always default to the end
of the message so we need to scroll up to edit what we've written. Most
of the time I need to edit the text near the top of an email so although
it is a very minor thing, it is a bit irritating.

In Firefox 4 the cursor is placed automatically at the end of a text area. 
Easiest to go to the top is by using Ctrl+Home

Opening second tab, no address causes download speed to drop from 160 kbs to less than 5 kbs and sits there doing nothing, does not happen with IE, why is this

after firefox updated from 27 to 28, when i download a file, play music, watch a video, or run a speed test, normal speed is about 160 kb/s (dsl connection 1.3 Mb/s) - just opening another blank tab (not any address) or try to open another page like google search page, download speed drops to less than 5 kb/s - downloading stops, and second page does not open, why is this happening, it does not happen with internet explorer and the version of IE i have is out of date,
history/cookies all clear automatically when close, i have disabled all add on, run malware, adware searches - show no problem, norton antivirus is up to date, i have spent hours on phone with ATT isp and connection is showing no problem - if i run a speed test it shows good, if i try to run a speed test and open second tab - speed fails and speed test will not even finish, ATT suggested I try the same thing in IE and there is no problem - so it appears to be an issue with Firefox 28

What is the CPU load when this slowdown happens?
Are you using a specific driver in Windows to mange the internet connection that might not get enough processor time to run properly?
It is also possible that other (security) isn't able to do its work and takes additional CPU time.
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem if starting Firefox in Safe Mode didn't help.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

When I compose an email in either gmail or yahoo, the cursor lags behind for about 2 seconds. This does not happen when I compose an email with Safari or Chrome. I am using a Mac with Firefox version 3.6.3. Any idea why this happens?

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

Can someone tell me why Apple cannot produce a Scabble game that works on Mountain Lion. So frustrated that this is not happening with all the technology available.

The only companies that can make a Scrabble game are the companies that own the rights to the game; Hasbro owns the rights in the US & Canada, Mattel owns the rights outside of the US & Canada.
You need to be speaking to those two companies.

On financial site which worked perfectly in IE for many years, I get immediate timeout error after entering my ID and password. Does not happen every time and multiple retries do not work.

I have used the PrimeVest web site to keep track of my IRA for several years now. For most of that time I have used Internet Explorer and have had no trouble. I have a link to that site pasted onto an Excel spread sheet and I click on that link daily to get my present balance. I have been doing it this way for years and have had no trouble while using Internet Explorer.
I recently installed the Firefox browser on my new laptop and have switched to using it as my default browser. When I click on that link now and enter my account number and password, sometimes it works OK in Firefox and sometimes it gives me a message saying "Your session has timed out. Please Log In Again." I have tried multiple times to re-enter the account number and password but always get the same message. Closing Firefox and reopening it produces the same result. I have even tried shutting the computer completely down and restarting it, but I got the same result. I can not find any pattern or reason to the days when I can use Firefox and the ones when I can not. The only way I have been able to log on to this site on those days is to past the link into Internet Explorer.
I do the same thing with several other financial sites and have not had any trouble with them and Firefox.

Thanks for the response.
I attempted to remove cookies, but I can not identify any of the cookies on the list with the PrimeVest web site. No PrimeVest, no PVs, nothing that looks like it came from them.
I have also reported the problem to PrimeVest and their tech did answer. He suggested erasing the browsing history (temporary internet files), which I did with no effect. He also had me check for the correct starting page address, which was OK. He stated that they are aware of a problem and it is on their list. No indication of how far down that list though. His only cure was to use IE for now, which I was already doing. Perhaps he can tell me which cookies to remove.

In iGoogle with firefox 4 I am unable to get the tabs to change down the left hand side or get any response to selections made to items like calender or weather this does not happen in Explorer 9.

After loading FireFox 4 all worked OK for a while. Now when trying to change the tabs on left hand side (Home etc) or change selections on the apps (Weather or Calender) nothing happens. I am running iGoogle with FireFox 4 but this does not happen when trying the same thing with Explorer 9.

Having the same problem, but not only can't change tabs, but cannot open links on the page. I thought that by reducing my iGoogle page to one tab, and putting what content I could into app tabs that would solve most of the problems. It did some. For a while I was able to bypass this with the iGoogle Tab Remover add-on but it stopped working last night and I've not been able to get it working since.

Why can't I copy and paste the images from web on Pixelmator or TexitEdit, or other apps? It does not happening with Safari, or Opera.

Drugging does work on graphic apps such as Pixlemator or Previews, but not on TexitEdit. It only shows URL.

Hi foxnao,
This is a known issue with Firefox 12. You can see the bug here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749527
It is fixed in FF 13 that should be release very soon. If it is big inconvenience you could download the Beta now.
Hopefully this helps!

Recently whenever I start a youtube vid , the IDM 'download this' bar always shows 2 MB file size . I think the videos are streaming in 2 MB partitions - which explains why vids start buffering every now and then . This does not happen on ubuntu . Help!

Os : Win XP , Ubuntu ( Dual boot )
P.S. - tried updating and reinstalling , no luck

Is there a keyboard stroke for tagging photos in iPhoto?

I would like to learn of a keyboard stroke for tagging photos in iPhoto. I called apple a while back and was told there is no such shortcut. You have to manually click on "add a face." Then, if you want to tag multiple people in one photo, you have to manually click in each tag box to name them. When iPhoto doesn't automatically detect faces, and the tag boxes are added manually, it is not possible to tab from on tag box to another. It's infuriating!

I'd suggest posting your question in the iPhoto forum here, as that's where the true experts hang out. Here's a link for you:

Unable to enter Recovery Mode for my iPad Air

Unable to enter Recovery Mode for my iPad Air
While updating my iPad Air to iOS 7.0.6, it went into an endless loop of cycling between the white Apple screen and the whirling dashes. I can't even reliably shut it down. It seems a prime candidate for recovery mode, but unfortunately I can't get it there. When I try to enter recovery mode by attaching to iTunes then pressing the home key and then reattaching theUSB cable when attached to iTunes, I just go back into the same endless loop Apple screen / whirling dashes cycle.
Right now I'm just waiting for it to power off by letting the battery run down, to see if that jumpstart brings it back up into a different state.
Anything else I can try? Or is my next stop the Genius Bar?
Thank you,
Matt

The timing on this has to be...just...right to enter DFU mode. If that won't work, plug the iPad Air into your computer and set the iPad into recovery mode, like so:
1) Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
2) Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
3) Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
4) When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes and App Store on my iPhone? Nothing happens if I click buy for apps or music. If I then go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. If I then enter ID and password it does not save or link to account?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens. When I go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. When I enter my ID and password it does not save or link to account. I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.
