Why does firefox keeps forcing itself on top of all other windows? it doesn't matter what website im on, it always does it! Really gets on my nerves when im watching a video only to have it minimized and firefox slammed in my face lol...

It's not to do with what website I'm on - Firefox ALWAYS does this even if I just have a blank tab open! Seems to happen in ubuntu and windows 7. Does anyone know why this is??

Hi,
You can consider the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems Reset Firefox] feature via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information'''. If it is okay, you can then install the Mozilla Archive Format add-on.
If you have security software installed you can try to delete all existing entries for Firefox and its sub processes in the different configuration modules and try to fully trust/allow Firefox afresh. Even after network access is completed, Firefox would still need unlimited access to its disk cache/memory as well as its files. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of all other windows?

Hi All,
I'm new to action script, and I just need this one script
> How can I script a Flash .exe file to always stay on top of
all other windows?
Basically what i want to do is have a flash-created
step-by-step instructional movie, but for the movie to remain on
top of all windows so the instructee is able to follow the
instructions on-screen...
It would be preferable to not have to buy another product
just to do this... as I said, this is the only scripting I need.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Rick

if you create your exe with mProjector you can use one of its
new AS
commands to do this.

mProjector installs new classes and help into Flash, to
enable them you
must build your app with mProjector (its input is your swf)

I just took in my macbook to the apple store to clean the fan because it was starting make a little noise but instead of making it stop it sounds like an airplane about to take off all the time, it doesn't matter what i'm doing. I dont know what to do now

I just took in my macbook to the apple store to clean the fan because it was starting make a little noise but instead of making it stop it sounds like an airplane about to take off all the time, it doesn't matter what i'm doing. I dont know what to do now? any ideas on how to make it stop?

take it back asap. If it wasn't doing it before they cleaned the fans, they may have accidentally done something that is causing this behavior.

Top and bottom of FireFox window disappear in seconds (the window expands too far). All other windows operate normally. Now what? I've uninstalled and reinsta

I was using Firefox for a few years with great enjoyment. Recently I opened it and within a second or so, it enlarged to the point that the top and bottom of the screen expanded off the screen. No other windows in any other program are doing this. The only way to close it is by using the task manager. Very frustrated. What other info do you need?

Hi ConnieHampton,
FIrefox will remember the last window size you had, which is why it keeps opening too large each time you open and close it. To fix this, try resetting Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/changes-toolbars-and-window-sizes-are-not-saved?esab=a&s=resize+window&r=7&as=s
If you don't see your menu bar, you may be in full screen mode, and can turn it off by following these instructions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen&r=0&as=s
If this doesn't work, please let us know and we'll figure out another way to fix it.

The Firefox icon often disappears from the toolbar when I go to another window like Outlook or Media Player. When I close down all other windows it reappears again. What can I do about that?

When it has disappeared I can open Firefox again using the menu or the opening icon on the toolbar, but then it only shows up blank, so without the tabs that were opened before. Closing down all other icons on the toolbar is the only way to make the Firefox icon reappear and for me to open Firefox again with all my tabs.
Please excuse my English, the jargon is difficult.

Thanks for your reply, cor-el.
The odd thing is, this problem hasn't occurred again since I posted it. What kind of magic is that? :-))
It really is odd, since I had it at least twice a week for several months.
So far, so good, then.
I'll wait a while more, and will then close it as being solved. I guess that's the procedure.
We'll put it down to temporary bugs or pc mysteries.
Though I like the magic option more...

I just installed the lastest update of Firefox and now the Firefox window is always on top of all other windows - what a pain! How can I fix this?

I looked at all of the options available to me and did not see where there is a link or anything saying "always on top." Is there such a thing somewhere and if so, where?

Well hells bells - I went to watch TV and came back and all is good. Is it magic? :) (Some days I just plain don't understand anything - I swear!)

Firefox is constantly hanging, no matter what website I go to, and updating the profile doesn't seem to help. HELP!

I use Mac OS X, 10.5.8 to be exact. I haven't been using Firefox lately because it keeps 'hanging' on me. I get the turning, round, colorful ball which doesn't ever stop to let me quit or anything. I have to force quit. Doesn't matter what website I go to, it lets me do a little bit and then just hangs.
I've updated recently, hoping that would help, but nothing. There is a certain website I need to use that will only run on Firefox, rather than Chrome or Safari, which I'd rather use because of the Firefox problems.
I'm not sure what else I can do. In the troubleshooting section, it says to run Firefox in safe mode, but I can't do that. In the Terminal, I don't know how to use it.
Please help!

I have mac pro and firefox 3.0.19
I am trying to download a video from youtube.?
I can see the video. I want to download it and save in my computer to see it again.
I have download helper. While the 3 red,blue,and yellow sphere are turning, It gives me the choice of place to save,and when I click and choose desktop , for example, this message comes ."Conversion requires an external application that appears to be missing on your system. Configure conversion ?
When I click on okay, another page comes, which says" converter and a box next to it . in the box is written FFMpeg. but I can change it to MEncoder. In another box, says configure conversion rules. When I click on it, nothing happen.Thanks for your help.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I want to download a video from youtube

No, this reply is not helpful. It simply generates this little gem:
"This service requires the conversion feature to be enabled.
Configure conversion ?"
And the same clicking on buttons that makes nothing happen and going around in circles with the escape key.

Videos won't play in Safari. Notice says, "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video." I have downloaded it, but no change. All videos play OK in firefox, but I like the controls in Safari better and want to stay with it.

If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

Actually, everyone missed one point, when a device is priced, the cost of icloud storage space for that device is also included in it that is why they are able to give you 5gb each for each user ID, in nutshell there is nothing free coming with apple device purchase, it is paid for. What they are trying by giving only 5gb per user ID irrespective of the number of devices used is pure broadlight looting, they take money from you when you buy each device and give you nothing, This is a case of goods and services bought but not fully deliverd ie apple can be suied for discreminatory treatment towards it's users. I wonder why no one tried this yet in America where everyone sue everyone for petty things..... there is no one to take up this issue? . if tim got any love for the guys who shell out money for the devices his company makes, he should be implimenting this as priority before someone wake up from sleep and sue him.

I have a MacBook Air with OS X and am having trouble accessing the ADT Pulse Home Security System cameras. The mobile (iPhone and iPad) apps allow access no problem, but I can't get a picture on the MacBook. Have tried Safari and Firefox browsers.

From a Catherine to Katherine -- Had the exact same problem!! I had to enable Java twice - both in Safari and then on the MacBookAir itself.

When I have my Firefox browser running, if I bring up a document from my computer, it appears briefly, then disappears behind the browser. It shows in the taskbar, but won't stay on top until I minimize all other windows.

Hi NicoMan,
According to your description ,we seem to suffer a performance issue here.
Have you tried to open the task manager to check the system performance ? Is there any specific process occupied many system resources ?Will the issue occur only with the specific applications ?
We can try to restart the Windows Explorer process to have a check.
If it only occurred with the spefcific two applications ,we can try to end the other application processes manually from the task manager to have a check .
If this is caused by the specific application ,we may need to look for help from the third party support considering they are all the third party applications .
Best regards
