Why does my scroll slider go to bottom, and stay there, and not allow me to scroll upward?

I can open Thunderbird (v.31.4.0) and use it successfully. But if I close it and then open it again (without turning the computer off) the scroll slider goes all the way to the bottom and stays there. It resists me if I try and scroll upward and immediately returns to the bottom of the scroll bar. I also notice that the cursor in the window in Thunderbird begins to constantly travel from left to right and then repeats and repeats (forever).
Closing and reopening Thunderbird does not correct this problem once it has begun occurring. The only solution is to shut down the computer and reboot. Then I can use Thunderbird again normally -- for one session only. If I close it and then reopen it the same problem with the scroll bar occurs. This first began happening intermittently (every couple weeks) beginning two months ago and this week it began happening every day.
I'm using Win 7 64 bit on a Dell Optiplex 780 with 4mb ram, Intel Core 2 Quad CPU.
By the way, the same thing is happening with Mozilla Firefox as well. I just began a few weeks ago and is still intermittent.
(It does not happen with Chrome or with gmail).
Are there settings I've somehow screwed up? Is this a bug?
(FYI: I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox within the past week for a different reason and that made no difference).

I have the same problem, everytime i click in tabs in the iTunes Store, it keep saying " The item you requested is not available in the U.K" ?
Why does this happend? I have just made a clean install of Mountain Lion.

  • Why does Acrobat Standard 6.0 recognize scanner but Pro 9 will not?

    I am running both programs on an Intel Mac (same machine), 10.5.8 Progam.  My Acrobat Standard 6.0 pulls in the scanner immediately, but my Pro 9 will not recognize the scanner.  Is there something I have to do to get the Pro 9 to recognize the same scanner?

    Thank you so much for your patience and expertise.  You spent a lot of time
    on this with me.  Maybe Adobe will fix the problem in the future!   Good
    luck to you.  Joyce

    Why does my iPad continuously close from where I'm working and takes me to home screen?

    It might be out of memory. Close all apps you're not using using the toolbar that comes up when you double click on the home button. Press and hold any icon and then tap on the red minus (-) symbol of the apps you're not using.

    Why does my Finder indicate that my "iphoto library" is 13gb and "photo library" is 15gb if they are supposed to 1 library used by both?

    Thanks Larry, but sorry if I'm being dense, but are you saying that the space being used is not 13gb (Iphoto) + 15 gb (Photo) = 28gb?  And that if I toss the iPhoto Lib I won't save 13gb?  That's what I not getting about this 'shared' library.
    Yes that is exactly what I said - and what the article I liked said with a somewhat detailed description
    Basically both libraries  use Linux HardLinks to the original photos - the finder sees each has containing the compete set of photos although the photos are only on disk once
    And deleting one library only deletes the links and a few overhead items - so again as I said would save very little space

    Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them.  This Lion OXS 7 is .. becoming very frustrating ... it will NOT keep changes made in the Address Book and it has destroyed my contacts which I only have electronically since 10.4 in my address book. I am NOT happy with this OS7 it has a lot of issues and faults.  How can one stop automatic reversing of data when inputting???
    Please help! 
    Wished I NEVER upgraded to this Lion!!!

    Relax. Your address book database is corrupted.
    If you are syncing your Contacts with MobileMe or something else, disable it for now.
    Backup your address book by going to File>Export>Address Book Archive.
    Quit Address Book.
    Open your Library by holding down the Option (alt) key while selecting the Go menu in Finder. Select Library. Navigate into your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the addressbook-v22.abcddb file.
    Open Address Book. It will recreate the database from the raw data.
    See how that works. If it is ok, then reenable syncing and see how that works.

  • Why does my ipod have on the screen the itunes symbol and the cord and an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol?  I can't get it to do anything.

    Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol.  I can't do anything with my ipod now!

    Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

  • Why does Verizon charge me $30 to buy a new phone and renew my two year plan?

    Why does Verizon charge me $30 to buy a new phone and renew my two year plan?  That seems counter-intelligent in a day where other carriers are begging for my business. I've been a customer for 10 years but am considering switching on principle.

    Just because "other people do it," doesn't make it right.

    I'm sending my bill in exchange for a provided service. The activation fee is garbage, and IMO, if smaller carriers can live without it (because they are), Verizon doesn't need to charge it. Frankly, I'm tired of people settling because "The fee isn't going away." If you agree with it, so be it, but you're the minority.
    You are correct, just because other people do it, doesn't make it right. It also "doesn't make it wrong".
    Verizon has chosen a price they charge for providing a service. Part of that price is an "upgrade" fee if you choose to purchase a phone at a ~$400 discount. ALL this is doing is lowering the amount of discount on the phone. It is, however, the price Verizon has set to provide their service. You are paying it in exchange for that provided service. You may not agree with it, that is your choice and are free to go elsewhere. If you are in the position to pay this "upgrade" fee, you are NOT under contract and are free to change without penalty. Your choice. If you pay it, you have made your choice.
    Yes, other "smaller carriers" can live without it because they are forced to, not because they "want" to or because it is "right". They have to have some sort of incentive to attract customers. The bigger carriers do this by providing a larger footprint for their service. Smaller carriers cannot do so and have to resort to other methods. Lower price is one of those. There are trade-offs in life. Choose your trade-offs. I prefer to pay a slightly higher price for more reliable service. I have been with several providers in the past, Verizon provides me the most reliable service of those I have tried.

    Why does my mrs phone keep getting my contacts from iCloud and more importantly how do i stop it!?
    Thanks for your help :-)

    Thanks for you reply, she already has her own account and wants to back her own contacts up to the cloud, we have tried turning both contacts off in icloud settings, also deleting from phone when prompted, then, we also deleted all her icloud backups to start a fresh. However soon as she turns contacts back on.. Bam they re appear. We also have ipad in the mix so we did the same to that, turned off and deleted contacts on there also to no avail. Somehow they are linked to my acount just cant work out how or where?
