Why are the websites all messed up?

Hello. I don't know how to explain this. But a few months ago, all the websites I load on Firefox were fine. But its been a month that all the websites are like messed up. The thing is that if I want to login to Yahoo Mail, the login bar and the password bar is tiny. And even if I type anything, it won't show what I am typing. I don't know what is wrong. IE won't even open the whole website and Chrome is also messed up.

If this is happening on Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer, then it seems like it might be an issue on your computer itself.
However, you can try doing a few things. Read [[How to clear the cache]], also, [[Websites look wrong]]. These two websites may be of some assistance.
You can also Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.

  • In Firefox 4, why are the website icons not appearing in the tabs and next to the URL in the address bar? They appear fine in the bookmarks menu.

    The little favicons that represent the website show up as the blank page icon in the toolbar and in the address bar, but they appear fine in the bookmarks bar. I have tried clearing my cache, and that did not help.

    Looks like they are all archived... Is this to shut us up?

    I would try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. Once the phone restarts, see if it is working correctly. It sounds to me like you may have too many text messages in the Messages app. Have you deleted anything from there lately?

  • Why are the only numbers that show up in my "Recents" on the iPhone 3G the calls that I've missed? I used to have all recent numbers that had called, on my old phone.

    Why are the only numbers that show up in my "Recents" on the iPhone 3G the calls that I've missed? I used to have all recent numbers that had called, on my old phone. Is there some way to make it so that all my recent calls (in and out) show up on my phone?

    At the top there's a toggle between "All" and "Missed".  Click "All"

  • Why are some websites, such as the FAFSA (federal financial aid for students) website or the BNY Mellon website, denying access to users running Firefox versions newer than 3.6?

    Why are some websites that are important to many people, such as the FAFSA (federal financial aid for students) website or the Bank of New York Mellon website, not permitting access to computers running Firefox versions newer than 3.6 when Mozilla is claiming that 5.0 is more stable and secure?
    The following information was displayed in regards to this issue -

    That is a question for those websites to answer. Firefox 4.0 was released almost 4 months ago, IMO more than enough time for those 2 websites to verify that Firefox 4 & 5 are compliant with W3C standards.
    To be able to access that FAFSA website, my advice is to install the Portable Firefox 3.6.19 version to your hard drive. It won't affect your other Firefox installation. <br />

  • Why are the apps on my IPad scattered across the whole thing and when I open them they turn to little rectangles in the corner of the screen and I can't even use them or tap on anything. Also when I turn my iPad it doesn't flip the screen over

    Hi The next thing to do is to Restore back to Factory Settings this will get rid of any bugs . After Restore use same Apple ID /Password then you should get all your Apps & data back If you still have this problem make an Appointment at Apple Store . Cheers Brian

  • Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?

    Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?
    All one gets from the download drop-down menu is:
    (480p), (240p) or (360p) for example and the name of the video of course.
    The way it is now, I cannot identify the type of video I am downloading as I could before.
    Thanks!

    Ubi,
    Your assumptions are incorrect. Not all Youtube videos are offered in other formats; some are only offered in FLV format. Generally, only the very HD ones are offered in MP4. The format in which videos are offered are the decision of Youtube and/or the original poster of the video.
    I opted to not pay for the VDH converter. There are FREE converters that will convert FLV to other formats, but they do not interface with VDH. Even the VDH converter is a 2-step process (in both manual or automatic mode). The converter that is included free with VDH will put an ugly icon/watermark on your converted video--every frame of the video. To find a free converter, just Google "free flv converter" (with the quotation marks).

  • Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

    In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

    ''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
    Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
    '''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    * clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
    There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
    * Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
    * You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
    * "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

  • Why are the fonts so small since I upgraded? I have difficulty reading folder names even when I wear my reading glasses.

    Kirby:
    . What version of OS X?
    10.6.8 - latest Snow Leopard.
    . How are you determining the size of the Vault?
    Using Finder: "Size 5.8 MB on disk".
    . What exactly did you do that you describe as "I decided to set up a Vault to back up to the Time Machine external hard drive.".  In general, Time Machine should be on a drive dedicated to it (that is, with nothing else on it).
    Oops, right: I meant Time Capsule. Time Machine is backing up to the Time Capsule, but I thought I could also use the Time Capsule as an external hard drive as well as a target for Time Machine. So, this is a non-no?
    . How many images show up when you select "Photos" from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector and filter using the Filter Rule "File Status" with the argument "Referenced"?
    1. Thanks for getting me to learn Aperture's "filtering" (Command-F). Cool.
    2. No images. Aha. So, do this mean all the masters are in the iPhoto library?
    But, using Finder:
    iPhoto Library: 18.2 GB 8,014 items
    Aperture Library.aplibrary: 20.6 GB 7,945 which would be right: I did some deleting after importing from iPhoto
    Aperture Vault: 5.8 MB

  • Why are the CAPTIONS displayed smack across everyone's face?

    Why are the CAPTIONS displayed smack across everyone's face on the screen???  I need the captions to HEAR better but I still want to SEE the show.  When the text is displayed across everyone's eyeballs it's very disruptive.  And I want ONE BUTTON on my remote to turn captions on/off; from a user perspective it is unnecessary to go through the menu settings everytime.  Take a stand and do something about improving CAPTIONS!!!

    The CC text is on the bottom third of the screen.  I don't understand the problem.  *shrugs*
    Actually when I first replied, I checked the CC on the channel I was on and it was in the 'face' position the OP complained about.  Now checked here on recording of Sprint Cup qualifying and it's at the bottom.  Looks like some are not in the bottom 1/3 of the screen.

  • Why are the songs in my iphone playlists grey and I can't move them.

    Why are the songs in my iPhone playlists grayed out.  I am unable to move and organize them.  I just downloaded some audio books from Audible and I cannot moved them to a playlist on my iPhone either.  What step am I missing?

    So, if I haven't made any albums, I can't move pictures in the main window of the Organizer?
    Yes, you can't. The default order in the main window is based on date, ascending or descending when you are in the standard 'thumbnail view'. If you are in 'folder' view, with your folders shown in the left panel, you are shown the pictures in alphabetical order of the file names.
    I haven't created albums yet.
    I have so many pictures. I wanted to put all the pictures for each album next to each other so I can find them easily.
    It's not difficult to create albums and 'drag' pictures in it. When an album is selected, you can move your pictures around in any order in the main window panel.
    Albums are one way of grouping and ordering pictures. You should try to use keywords to organize and retrieve your pictures.

  • TS4337 Why are the colors for my calendar reseting to a color I never chose?

    Why are the colors for my calendar in iCal reseting to a color I never chose?  It won't stay blue when I choose that color and keeps changing to a custom lavendar color on its own....  Incredibly annoying...

    There doesn't seem to be a one-size-fits-all answer, because what works for one printer doesn't necessarily work for another, and I don't have your printer so I can't advise on specifics...
    However, perhaps we can discover a set of settings that will work...
    If you File - Print, choose Photoshop Manages Colors, in the Printer Profile section do you see profiles specific to your printer (e.g., with the name Kodak in them)?
    If so, choose one of them that seems appropriate given the paper you're using.
    If not, try choosing sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
    Now, before you continue, press the [Print Settings...] button.  This brings up the printer driver dialog.  You may have to go through [Advanced] buttons or whatever, but what you're looking to do here is to disable the printer driver's color management logic.  In other words, if you can find a color-management / ICC profile handling section, set it to "no color management" or equivalent.  OK back out to Photoshop's print dialog, then press [Print].
    The key here is that if Photoshop manages the color transforms, the printer driver should not be set to do so - or vice versa.
    If you're presented with the printer driver's dialog again, double check that the settings you chose above are still set, for good measure, and try a test print.

  • Why are the emails in my "trash" folder deleted automatically every Saturday?

    Why are the emails in my "trash" folder deleted automatically every Saturday?  The employee at the Apple Store told me to contact my email carrier, but they told me it was an Apple issue.
    iPhone5c  iOS 8.1.2

    I keep Outlook Express running on my desktop all the time.  The emails come into the inboxes of both my desktop and my iPhone.  Once the emails are received on the desktop and I read them on my phone, they automatically go into the trash folder.  If it really is trash, I manually delete them and they go over to the other trash folder.  Then I can empty all of them at once.  If it's really important, sometimes I manually move it to another folder.  But then Saturday comes along and the trash folder all of a sudden becomes empty.

  • I've just started using the App Tabs. I think this feature could be handy but why are the sites not updated when I start Firefox. Now I have to manually update the site which is somewhat of a downer. Does any of you know where I'm going wrong?

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.
