This problem also occurs when I open a new tab and input my homepage web address (www.rr.com)

Why does Firefox 37.0.1 show multiple overlapped tab icons + same some pdf graphics? (36.0.4 is OK)

When running on SONY VAIO i7 WIN 7 64bit SP1 with NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M, the icons in the tabs at top of Firefox page replicate, overlapped, horizontally, offset by a few pixels in 37.0.1. Similarly, when displaying web based pdf files through Firefox 37.0.1, some graphics replicate, overlapping, vertically. There are no such problems in 36.0.4 or previous. My drivers for GeForce GT 520M are up to date, so not a driver issue. I have uninstalled 37.0.1 and reinstalled 36.0.4 until this can be fixed.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

While being idle online for a few minutes, why does Firefox start cyclically using 50% to 5% CPU resources, with a 10 to 1, hi to lo ratio

This behavior became apparent after the last couple of Firefox version updates. Current Firefox version is 21.0. My PC is an IBM ThinkCentre running @ 3.0 Ghz Intel CPU with 1.5 Gigs PC3200 DDR ram. With or without any other Windows apps open, whether I'm on line just idling on my home page (Google) or any other web page or entering / receiving data, several minutes into a session, the MS XP pro SP3 task manager shows Firefox cyclically using 50% (and more) CPU resources for 8-10 seconds then 1-5% CPU resources for 1-2 seconds. Closing & restarting Firefox, allows me a few minutes of speedy surfing. My ISP is AT&T 2nd tier DSL with a download thruput of 300 (+) MB (not Mb) / second (altho, most of the time I'm just viewing a web page or idling, without downloading or uploading any data).
What has changed? My PC & all of its software have remained the same with the exception of MS security updates, Adobe Reader updates, & Firefox updates (without adding any additional plug ins, add ons, etc., with each update).
What the...! For the past several minutes that I've been inputting data here, the task manager showed a jump of only 13% cpu usage (ever so briefly) by Firefox & only then when I switched between the task manager & Firefox. Intermittent anomalies are gonna be the death of me...
Well, this is an annoyance, albeit an intermittent one. Ah, I pine for the days when I heard about & believed in "seamless integration"...any thots that might help resolve this issue sure would be appreciated.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Why does firefox now tell me that it is unable to load the browser because firefox is already running?

After the last 2 updates I have had trouble with the browser. It periodically tells me that I am unable to run firefox because the process is already running. I then need to go to the task manager, stop the firefox process before I can launch the browser

Why does my Ipod touch 5th generation 32GB have problems syncing with the latest version of itunes?

lately My ipod touch, 5th generastion 32gb has difficulty whenever i try to sync it with tht latest version of iTunes. When i go to sync it immediately claims that over 10gb has dissipated into this "Other" section. to fix that i have to do a factory reset, however after the reset has finished and while i am trying to re-sync my music on to my device the sync gets stopped toward the end saying "Waiting for changes to be applied" for hours on end. even then it does not sync. So currently i am unable to use the ipod tough for what it was built as in the first place, a music player. currently i am ratherdissapointed and i would like to find some answers to this problem because this problem is extremely irritating and it has kept me from using the ipod for what i mainly use it for in the first place, music. Ever scince the latest version of iTunes, where the icon became red, i have bee having this major problem. I suggest you work to find an answer to this Problem and fix it ASAP so i can get back to enjoying my portable music player.

Why does my Epson 2200/ Print: Media Type list only 4 of the media types?

For some reason my Epson 2200 when I'm trying to print a photo in Photoshop, and other programs, shows under Print/Presets/Print Settings/Media Type: Plain Paper, Enhanced Matte Paper, Velvet Fine Art Paper and Water Color-Radiant White.
What isn't shown is the rest of the paper media types of: Premium Glossy, Premium Luster, Premium Semi Gloss, Canvas-Luster and a whole host of variations in those types of media. In essence what isn't showing are most of the print profiles from Epson for the different types of paper.
I done everything that I can think of to correct the problem and nothing seems to work. Now it has progressed to the point I'm have the same problem with my Epson Stylus Photo R200.
Both Printers are on USB connections. I've tried deleting the printers from the Printer Setup Utility; running Disk Utility/Repair Permissions; trashing Epson Printer Utility; trashing the preferences from the Home folder; trashing the Epson folder from the HD/Library/Printers folder; and then reinstalling all of those trashed items and deleted items and running Disk Utility/Repair Permissions.
Nothing seems to work! I need help here ..... what am I doing wrong??

QuickSilver G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I figured it out myself and answered my own question. If you have matte black ink installed when you are trying to print on glossy, the paper type is limited to only that media which black matte ink is specified. You have to switch out the matte ink for photo black ink. Delete the printer from the Printer Setup Utility and reinstall the printer. Whereas with the Photo Black Ink you can print on all types of media.
Nothing like driving yourself crazy over a minor point that puts a cog in the wheels of progress. :O)

Firefox 4.0 - scroll wheel shrinks text rather than scrolling the page down

On some web pages, when I use the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll down, the page text shrinks, as if I'd done the appropriate gesture on a mobile browser. Reversing the scroll wheel direction enlarges the text. Moreover, the page down key seems to switch me to another tab, rather than moving down in the same page.
I first thought that the scroll wheel problem does not affect all pages. However, it now seems that it has stopped misbehaving. I just went back to a firefox window containing a page I thought had misbehaved earlier, and the scroll wheel now behaves normally and so does the page down key.
I upgraded to firefox 4.0, and told it to restore the tabs I had had open in the previous firefox version. The scroll wheel had behaved normally in that version.
I have not closed and restarted firefox since the upgrade. I don't recall what version I had been running, but I generally upgrade promptly when a new version is available, so I was probably on the latest of the previous series.

Try to close and restart or even reboot the computer to see if that helps. Sounds that the Ctrl key somehow got stuck in Firefox because zooming is the behavior if you press Ctrl and use the scroll wheel.

Firefox logo appears in a white box rather than using the background like 3.6

I just installed Firefox 4.0.on my xp sp3 laptop. My desktop, quick launch and startmenu Firefox icons are all on a white background. On the change page it says that the Firefox logo was updated, but I could not find a description of the update. How can I change the Firefox logo to a transparent background?
When I search the user area how do I make the search so that both words are in the results?

The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.
You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why does Firefox display a screen, then several (8-10) seconds later refresh that same screen ?

I am using Windows XP, and connect to Internet via slow AT&T DSL. When switching sites on the WEB, the screen from the site is displayed, then shortly afterward the screen gets refreshed automatically. Also of note, at the bottom of the screen, I can see verbiage explaining what is happening, EG; "Waiting for google", "Updating", "Transferring" etc, and the site name.

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

Why does firefox change my homepage every time I open it?

I want hotsheet.com to be my permanent default every time I open firefox.

Hello howsue, in your system details it seems that you have in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows profile folder] a [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file User.js] file. The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file, forget it, if you have not create the file then try to delete the User.js file, to see if the problem goes away (some programs create the file also).
thank you

Why does Firefox display only half a page when system is coming out of a resolution change from a game?

When I leave Firefox open in the background while playing Dungeons and Dragons Online, when I close DDO and open Firefox again, it only displays half a page and the bottom browser bar is less than half way down the screen. The rest is just blank space like the browser was shrunk and then enlarged again, but the display window in the browser didn't readjust again. I have to close FF and reopen again to fix it. It used to be that the empty space was white. A recent update now causes that space to be RED when it occurs. Not sure if that helps any. I don't have any other games right now, so I haven't tested this with other games, but this ONLY happens to FF!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Months ago

Another user posted a screenshot of something like that earlier this afternoon, and I'm not sure what is causing that to happen. I suspect if may be caused by an extension that was recently updated, but no ideas about which one it may be. I just got back to my computer after be gone for the last five hours, so I don't if there has been any additional information in the other thread or not. This is about all I can figure to do right now until we have more information related to this new issue.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

Why does Firefox display an outline around the hotspot I just clicked on

hi all
i already asked this question about Internet Explorer and thanks to Hans-G i got it sorted, but now i have the same problem in firefox. can anyone tell me why its happen
here is the site Petland
help please
gman

Hi gman,
the erstwhile "wall initiaded headache" is gone, I hope and now you want some more?Let's balance my reason: Those lines are there for a purpose to show the link focus i.e. that is the active link, it is a usability thing in my tuppenceworth.
If you are adamant that, I could imagine this solution: Try setting the background color of the table or div and the image similar to the color of the images.
Hans-G.
P.S.
Do you remember, most here in the forum are saying that one could retain these lines without further notice.
