Why can't I click on the window bar in quicktime X windows?

For some reason, I can't click on the window bar at the top of movie windows in Quicktime X. When I do so, it acts as if I'd clicked on whatever was behind the movie window. This means that I have to close windows with the keyboard rather than clicking, for example.
This started happening before I upgraded to Mavericks, and continued after. Reinstalling the OS did nothing.

Did you use the Migration Assistant updater before you installed Mavericks?
I ask as a resident problem that follows one across a system upgrade usually comes on the heels of a data migration. (I was vexed right up through 10.6 by a migration of data from Panther!)
If so, backup all your files and do a clean install. It would be easier to walk you through if I knew the configuration of your Mac and whether or not you have a bootable optical disk or an image on a USB thumb drive.

  • Why can't I search in the location bar anymore?

    I don't mind the changes made to Firefox too terribly but the one thing that's really throwing me off is that I can't search Google from the location bar anymore! Previously, when I wanted to know something stupid like how tall the Eiffel Tower is, I just popped 'how tall is the eiffel tower' into my location bar and bam, instant answers. Now, if put anything with spaces I get:
    "The URL is not valid and can't be loaded."
    I already went to about:config and keyword.enabled is set to true. What could the problem be? :(

  • Why can't I click on the upper tabs of all the websites I'm visiting?

    When I am visiting a website, for example, Google, I cannot click on the upper tabs where it says, "web, images, gmail" etc.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links and buttons in that part of the screen not clickable.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[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 make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why can't I click on the empty tab, when I want to empty the messages in my junk box?

    When I am in my hotmail account, I try to select the empty tab in my junk box, but I can't select "empty". I am also having that same problem in other websites. For instance, I went into Jimmy John's and selected menu. But it wouldn't let me select menu.

    Could you provi'''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.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

  • Why can't I type in the address bar?

    I can click on the address/location bar and highlight it but i can not type anything in. every page i want to go to i have to type into my little Google search bar and then select it from a list.

    You may have visited a website that has disabled the location bar.<br />
    Try to open a new window to see if that gives you a working location bar.<br />
    If that works then close the not working window and close and restart Firefox to see if that stays.<br />

  • When I open up a new tab, why can't I type in the address bar?

    I downloaded Firefox 4.0 recently and every time I open a new tab, I am not able to type in the address bar. I have to open up multiple pages in my task bar rather than having them tabbed in one browser. This was happening to me when I was using the beta version also.

    I'm hoping that that's not the case. My only add-ons are Adobe Acrobat 9.0.0332, Java Deployment Toolkit 6.0.22.4, Java Platform SE 6 U22, and Shockwave Flash 100.2.153.1. Which is stuff that I need in order to do most things on the net.

  • Why can't I click on the movie clips when they are moving fast?

    I am making a game where insects in an array fall down from above the screen. The user clicks on these insects to increase his/her score. When the score reaches specific points, the speed increases. When the speed increases, it gets harder to click on these movieclip insects. There is one particular insect where you can't click on and destroy at all when the speed becomes fast. This is the code inside this particular insect. Note that all insects have the same codes in them, but this insect in particular is very hard to click. This insect also has animation in it; I tried making a transparent box around to make the click easier, but it's still not working right.
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
        import flash.display.MovieClip;
        import fl.motion.Animator;
        import flash.events.*;
        var MainTimeLine = MovieClip(root);
        this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, kill3);
        this.dead = false;
        function kill3(e:MouseEvent):void
            this.dead=true;
            mouseChildren=false
            gotoAndPlay(31);
            this.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, kill3);
            flash.utils.setTimeout(removeSelf2,2000);
        function removeSelf2():void
            this.parent.removeChild(this);

    there's nothing about a movieclip's speed that would stop it from being clickable.
    your transparent box, should have its visibility property true and alpha=0.

  • Why can't I click on the "Buy Now" button on some apps in the Mac app store?

    I've tried to buy Limbo, Modern Warfare, and a numerous ammounts of other games, but it won't let me click. on it. I hover my mouse over it, then click, but nothing happens. The button works fine with other apps, but some apps just don't work at all.

    Ok...
    Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.2 Client Combo will reinstall the App Store which might help.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.7.2

  • All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole newFirefox window. How can I fix this?

    All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole new Firefox window. How can I fix this?
    Also, Firefox crashes frequently. Is there a fix for this also?

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox 3.6 that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
    For the second issue, the [[Firefox crashes]] support article may help.

  • Why can't I connect to the itunes store on my windows 7 64 bit pc

    Why can't I connect to the itunes store on my windows 7 64 bit pc?

    perfect, thanks.
    When I try to connect to the itunes store, it says 'accessing itunes store' and just hangs there.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • I keep multiple windows opened and minimized. Sometimes when I click on the task bar to Restore, it apparently "disappears" out of view past the upper left corner. From then on, it can only be seen by using Maximize. What can be done to move it back?

    I keep multiple windows opened and minimized. Sometimes when I click on the task bar to restore one, it apparently "disappears" out of view beyond the upper left corner of the screen. From then on, it can only be seen by using Maximize in the task bar. When Restore/Move/Size are clicked, the pointer just goes to the upper left corner of the screen with all combinations of clicking/dragging having no success. What causes this, and what can be done to move it back?

    If a window disappear then using the system menu can make it reappear or make it possible to move that window in view. I don't know what causes it to make the window disappear in your case if it does work correctly if you start Firefox.
    You can check the browser.link.open_newwindow prefs on the about:config page if you want to open all links in tabs in the current window.

  • I have downloaded the ebooks, but why can't i click it open?

    I have downloaded the ebooks, but why can't i click it open?

    What do you mean, 'downloaded'? Take pictures where? Are you saying that you have an iPhone or iPad and you don't have enough memory for any more pictures? Adding the 10GB won't have any effect - it's extra space on the iCloud server for Documents, email, Contacts, Calendars and iPhone backup. You can't increase the memory on an iPad or iPhone by any means. If this isn't your issue please clarify what you mean.

  • Why can't I print out the body of my emails,they come out with the right missing.

    When ever I try to print out my emails(gmail) everything under the Mail column prints,but the right side is missing. I have tried everything I know and nothing works. I can't move it over and I can use the print selection. Also I can't print out the entire email if it is more than 1 page.

    First try to reset Firefox printer settings, if you are still unable to print you can then reset '''all '''firefox printer settings.
    ''Reset firefox printer settings:''
    1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
    2. In the Filter field, type print.print_printer.
    3. Right-click on the print.print_printer setting and select Reset.
    4. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
    ''The first way was just simple reset of firefox printer settings. However, if it failed to solve the problem then you need a full reset of all firefox printer settings. ''
    1. Open your profile folder: At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu (on Windows XP, click on the Help menu) and select Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.
    2. Under the Application Basics section, click on Open Containing Folder. A window with your profile files will open. Note: If you are unable to open or use Fire​fox, follow the instructions in Finding your profile without opening Firefox.
    3. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
    4. In your profile folder, copy the prefs.js file to another folder to make a backup of it.
    5. Open the original prefs.js file in a text editor (such as Wordpad).
    6. Remove all lines in prefs.js that start with print. and save the file.
