Why do I have to keep moving the mouse to keep a youtube video from stopping? I already have Firefox 27.0.1.

I googled the problem, which seems to have occured in earlier versions of firefox, but I am still having this problem and am in 27.0.1 which seems to be the current version.

Please ensure that all of your plugins are up-to-date by running the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
If that does not fix the issue, please try disabling both the Flashplayer and Firefox hardware acceleration.<br>

unless you keep moving the mouse. This is very annoying.
It doesn't do it on Explorer or while in Windows.
It is only happening since I upgraded to 4.01
It happens even on this page if I stop typing or moving the mouse.

Symantec have released an update for Norton 360 to make it compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US

When I click full screen for Youtube. The video studders but doesnt if i keep moving the mouse.

This problem emerged when Firefox 5 downloaded. Now when I put a video on any site on fullscreen, the video will stutter. But the puzzling thing is if I keep moving my mouse, the video loads fine. I really need help.

Turns out it is the stupid plugin update!!!! By turning off video acceleration my code worked. 20 hours of my life that I will never get back. Thanks a lot Adobe!!!
Now, can you fix this so that people who use my software don't waste 20 hours of their lives, or should I just put a comment on my product that says, "If you want to view this in full screen, right click and deselect "video accelerator because Adobe has an error and refuses to fix it because they are retarded."
Spending time to try and solve complex puzzles is good for the brain. Stems off Alzheimer's I'm told.
But a simple search of the Adobe knowledge base would have saved you 19 hours and 55 minutes of your precious time: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/839/cpsid_83952.html

When I click on an action, nothing happens unless I keep moving the mouse pointer. This has only happened since I upgraded to version 6. Interestingly, the some situation is with the "SafeCentral" software.

This happens every time I click on a button or text that does something like, after entering some information then clicking on say, a button to "Continue". The screen freezes and the little symbol on the left hand side of the tab stops rotating, but starts as soon as I move the mouse. If I stop moving the mouse the screen freezes again. I also have installed on my computer the application, '''SafeCentral''', which I know uses Firefox. This problem has only been encountered since I updated to version 6 and also when SafeCentral update the Firefox version they use.
Wired or what!
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Michael Murray

Thank you for your prompt reply.
I think you have identified the problem straight away, well done!
I first encountered the problem a couple of months ago with an update on Safe Central, (protected environment) software. SC uses the Firefox browser. I won't insult you by explaining what the program does, I'm sure know better that I. I didn't have this problem with Version 5 of Firefox, so I conclude the easiest way to solve this issue would be for me to uninstall v. 6 and reinstall V. 5. As I only use SC for online shopping I can live with this miner irritation. I also notice the Trend Micro Toolbar, though it appears on the Firefox screen, does not monitor the web sites or check email addresses.
So the TM boffins also have a problem with V.6, but I wager they aren't aware of it yet. Just in closing, I also use Chrome and Internet Explorer that work perfectly well. The problem defiantly lies with Mozilla.
Kind regards
Michael

Why does moving the mouse over an IMAQ image display slow the GUI down so much?

I have a large application with several vi's running simultaneously under labview 8.6.1. When I mouse over an image display control in one of the vi's, everything slows down a shocking amount in all the other vi's. The windows task manager does not show a large increase in CPU use. My pc is has a quad cpu with 4GB of RAM, and the CPU and memory loads do not appear to be terribly taxing to the system. However, many of my vi's apparently come almost to a standstill if I just move the mouse in a circle around my image control.
This looks like it is largely a GUI display issue. If I make a new vi and put a while loop in it that only displays the iteration loop number to an indicator, I can see the iterating occurring, then stopping totally when I mouse inside the image display control. When I stop moving the mouse inside the control, or when I move it outside the control, the interation loop number jumps up, as if it had been incrementing behind the scenes the whole time. So only display of the interating was halted.
This problem occurs even if the vi with the image control is not executing. If the vi with the image control is open but not running, and I mouse over the image on it, the other guis all come to a screeching halt.
Does mousing in the image display control really utterly crush all other guis in all other labview windows? Is this an issue inherent to the image display control? If so, is there anything I can do about this?
Also, this issue is not entirely limited to display. I started looking at it in greater detail because this issue also exposed what I think is a race condition in my code. I have a vi that acquires an image from a ccd and puts it into an IMAQ image.ctl. This image then gets passed up to a vi up the call chain, and is put on a queue and sent over to be de-queued by a vi that has the image display control. Here's the kicker: when I mouse over the image display control, the image successfully gets acquired inside the subvi, and if I probe the wire leading to the output IMAQ image display.ctl, I see the image. If I simultaneously probe the wire coming out of the subvi one level up the call chain, the image gets lost about half the time. This only happens if I am mousing in the image display control IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND SEPARATE VI. If I bump up the priority of the ccd image acquisition vi to 'highest priority', the problem only happens about 1% of the time, and I really have to mouse around to make it happen. Still, it's disturbing that mousing in the GUI in one window results in a failure of a separate subvi to simply pass an image up the call chain. I understand that IMAQ images are referenced rather than passed by value, but I don't see why there should be a failure to pass the image up the call chain. I've looked for a race condition, but can't find one.

I have finally been able to replicate the behavior that you are seeing on another computer once the image was large enough. Here are a few notes about this behavior:
First. The UI only slows down when the images are large, 16 bit images. The reason why this is unique to 16 bit images is that they can only be displayed on the front panel as 8 bit images. The workaround that Weiyuan suggested to change the 16 bit display mapping hints towards the root of the problem...that any time a mouse runs over the indicator, Windows asks the entire image to re-draw (having a separate indicator overlapping the image will create the same behavior). With a 16 bit image, not only does the image have to re-draw on the screen but the 16 bit pixels need to be mapped to 8 bits. When setting the 16 bit display mapping to Full Dynamic, this requires mor computation/pixel than 90% dynamic or one of the other mapping schemes.
This is expected behavior if your program is running and you're trying to display a large 16 bit image. To fix this behavior there are a couple options:
Change the 16 bit display mapping to something other than full dynamic. You can choose which 8 bits to display or if you want to map the bits.
Resize the image just for viewing purposes on your front panel (since you aren't going to view every single pixel of you image on the screen). You can use the IMAQ Resample.vi to do this. This will allow you to take your 1500x1500 pixel image and only display a 500x500 pixel version.
If you are interested in viewing small details of the large image, consider just displaying a smaller region of interest at a time.
Let me know if any of these solutions work for you. Good luck on your application.

Magic Mouse and MS Word 2011 (under OS 10.7, iMac middle 2011): Marking of word in a document stops after a few seconds while still pressing the left button and keep on moving the mouse (batteries full)

Software: OS X Lion (10.7.4); Microsoft Word für Mac 2011, Version 14.2.2 (120421)
Hardware: iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 12 GB, magic mouse
To mark several clauses in a doc-document (in MS Word 2011), I press the left mouse button and move the mouse along the words
My problem:
While still pressing the left button and moving the mouse, the marking on the screen stops and I can't change the already existing markings any more (to become less or especially more).
Who knows:
- why this happens and how I can abondon this behaviour?
- is it a settings problem in MS Word 2011 or of OS X Lion?
By the way:
- I don't watch this behaviour in MS Excel 2011. There everything works fine.
- The batteries are fully loaded and I'm about 30 to 40 cm (1") away from the iMac (RSSI: -60 dB)
Thanks for answers.

I have the same problem now that I've enabled FileVault 2 on Mountain Lion.

Upgraded to FF4 sites were slow loading or not loading at all - then I discovered it downloads if I keep moving the cursor. If I stop moving the cursor the downloading stops or slows to a crawl again.

Firefox doesn't load a page or GIf unless I am moving the mouse

Firefox won't load any page or play a GIF unless I am moving the mouse or typing. I have the latest version of Firefox. It happens every couple of times I use the computer, and the problem keep occuring if I just restart Firefox. Any ideas?

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.

trying to launch photoshop cs3 on a mac running OS10.6.8 i keep getting the error message: Licensing for this product has stopped working you cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT adminstrator or Adobe customer support for help
I already Uninstalled and reinstalled the product and it still does not work.

Hi,
Try to uninstall the software again and you have to manually
Delete the following folders:
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/backup
[Startup Disk]/Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/FLEXnet Publisher/
Go to Applications-->Utilities-->Disk Utility, Open it and Select the MAC HD and then click on Repair permissions.
After that try to run the cleaner tool as mentioned by kglad.
Restart machine and then try to install again.
*** Make sure , you only delete these folders if there is no other adobe applications installed on the machine. As if you have any other Adobe application of the suite ( not free applications ) then it will be a problem.
