Why does my toolbar pop up randomly?

When i open any app, or I'm watching a video, it sends apps to the back and brings forward the toolbar. how can i fix this? it gets really frustrating when I'm watching a video and it exits full screen or while typing an essay to have to click on the window to use it over and over. 

Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
There may be a problem with that file if the History sidebar keeps opening if you have closed it before you exit Firefox.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note:
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.
You can rename ''localstore.rdf'' to '''localstore.rdf.sav''' to test if that solves it.
Then you can restore the customization by copying ''localstore.rdf.sav'' to ''localstore.rdf'' if it didn't work.

    Hi,
    For maintenance.

    Check your Applications folder. If you don't want the app, just drag it to the Trash.
    IMHO you do not need this utility. Your Mac will do maintenance for you.

  • Why does my iPad 2 type random letters?

    Why does my iPad 2 type random letters?

    It happens when I am trying to write emails, enter username or password info.  If a backspace to delete, often other numbers or letters appear.  In playing words with friends, the letters I am trying to place end up all over the board--do not go where I want them to.  My screens become "shakey" and if I shut down it usually corrects it--but not always.  The iPad 2 is less than a year old.  Might have to make an appt. at an Apple store unless you have another suggestion.  Thanks

    Why does Pages change tab settings randomly in a document?

    Have no clue what is happening to make the font change style. Are you hitting any keyboard shortcuts or is a syle applied to those cells?
    There is no automatic Calendar generator, but Pages will generate sequences in tables and:

  • Why does my iPhone 5 give random chimes?  I have all notifications, etc., turned off.  Seems to be on reason for this.

    Why does my iPhone 5 give random chimes?  I have all notifications, location services, etc., turned off. 

    I had the exact same problem with my iPhone 4. I would select the song I was wanting to play and it would load for a second, then simply shuffle to the next. It did this with almost my entire iPod. So, I synced it with my computer and it's copy of my music, and presto, my music played perfectly. So, I would reccomend trying that. Hope this helped!!

  • Why does Firefox keep opening 3 random tabs while browsing different websites?

    Just to clarify: They are never spam websites. They may be 3 of the same website, but it is always random. I only browse safe websites. This usually happens while Stumbling (StumbleUpon).
    For example:
    StumbleUpon brought me to this website:
    [[http://www.thecreatorsproject.com/blog/5000-fiber-optic-flowers-invade-museum-grounds-in-ifield-of-lighti]]
    Then it also opened three of this webpage:
    [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Earth_Battalion]]
    They have nothing to do with each other. Why does this keep happening? I searched with Anti-Malwarebytes, SuperAntiSpyware and Microsoft Security Essentials. No viruses.
    I have Windows Vista Home Basics 32-bit. And is running Firefox 8.0. (This problem existed in 7.0 and previous as well.

    I've already done this, and it says nothing is wrong with my system.

  • Why does audio click/pop at in and out of any transition I apply?

    If it's not a pop or a click, after I apply a transsion for some reason the audio level drops during the transition and doesn't appear to be adjustable even with clicking the edit volume button. I have tried many many things and all that seems to work is extracting the audio from both clips that are next to eachother first, and then apply a transition and it seems to be ok but even doing this numerous times I have attempted to extract audio from one clip by pressing Command J or going through the menu and gotten a completely different clips audio when before I extracted the audio it was fine. Why does this happen? In addtion the titles I've added always appear pixilated? Any suggestions? I have read the entire tutorial and know how everthing is supposed to work but nothing seems to be doing what it's supposed to.

    You hear a pop or gap during a title or transition in iMovie
    http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n107945
    After applying a title or transition, you may sometimes hear a pop or brief period of silence between the transition and the next clip.
    A clip's volume is lower after you use an effect or title in iMovie 4
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107944
    For titles, they often look bad on the Mac. Will look fine on TV. You should use simple (sans-serif) fonts like Helvetica or Arial in large sizes.

  • Why does my iPad shut down randomly

    Why does my iPad shut down randomly

    Generally? it's like when a computer crashes. the operating system gets over whelmed and shuts down or reboots.
    Sometimes it's not that big of a deal, other times it may be caused by an app with a glitch or error. Sometimes your iPad is fine, but the app has an error in it.
    One thing to do is to do a reset. hold down the sleep and home button for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let it reboot. Often if there's any sort of glitch or 'oops' the reset and reboot will allow the iPad's memory to clear and resolve the issue.

  • Why does Yahoo's pop-ups still popup even though pop up blocker is turned on and no exception for them?

    On Yahoo's page two thing happen... 1.) Ad will all of a sudden become whole page ad and 2.) continually get a facebook for yahoo pop up usually upon opening a yahoo related news link

    try disabling the pop-up blocker entirely and then see if you are able to bring up your contacts.
    In order to turn your Pop-Up Blocker on and off in Mozilla Firefox, please do the following:
    1. In Mozilla Firefox click on the Tools menu, then select Options.
    2. Click on the Content tab at the top of the "Options" window.
    3. Then go to the Block pop-up windows option, and remove the check mark.
    4. Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.
    If it permits then it will mean that the problem is indeed with the Firefox pop-up blocker only.
    In case it still does not permit opening on contacts then the issue is because of something else (do you have any toolbar installed eg yahoo toolbar)
    Try and let us know what were the results ...

  • Why does my iMessage and FaceTime randomly switch off?

    It seems that my iPhone 4 has decided that it wants to randomly switch of iMessage and Factime at random points during the day. This has only happened since the os 5.0.1 upgrade! I have not reset it because i have heard that this does not work! I have tried just using my phone number, then just my apple id account, then both together on the settings for both, but it is still randomly switching off.
    Does anyone have a solution/fix to this problem?????

    Has this solved the issue with you (if you have had the issue)? I have seen numerous people say taht resetting the phone does not help at all, that it just goes back to doing it after a while.
    I just wish someone at Apple would acknowledge it as everyone i have spoken to that has an iPhone has this issue.
    I've never heard of anyone having this issue before so I can't say whether or not resetting it will help. However, it's a simple, painless, less than 5 minute procedure so why wouldn't you try?
    I don't know what Apple has to acknowledge as it doesn't seem to be a particularly common problem. Yours is the first post I've seen on the issue.

  • Why does the App Store open randomly when I'm using Safari?

    It simply opens the apps store to some game unprompted. It does it without me touching links. It happens without touching anything.
    And yes I have hard reset it and deleted cookies etc. I am not a fool.
    I have seen this question come up a lot and Apple have failed to acknowledge it. It's certainly common enough to be a known problem, so why are they ignoring it?

    This is happening because of bad ads on a site that you are visiting. These ads are designed to randomly redirect mobile device users to other sites or the App Store if the link is to an App. It has nothing to do with your iPad. The random nature of the re-directs is intended to confuse the user and keep this garbage below the radar.
    Turning OFF Javascript bypasses this problem because the mechanism implementing the redirects uses Javascript. This is not really a solution, however, because turning Off Javascript affects all sites and will certainly cause problems.
    Complain to the web site to get these ads removed. They may be unaware of the problem.
    There is no problem with your iPad.

  • Why does RoboHelp 8.0.2 randomly insert javascript into all WebHelp topics?

    RH can randomly insert javascript into your project (can be in the <head> tag or <body> tag in all topics in the project) which evidences itself with red boxes in the editing pane, and duplicate breadcrumb links in the WebHelp output. Even if you clear the Add Breadcrumbs Links checkbox while setting your project's properties, you will still have some breadcrumbs in various topics (RH randomly assigns breadcrumbs to topics with no logic that I can see). After deleting all instances of the red boxes, RH inserted javascript again in the next compile.
    When you click the HTML tab you will see something similar to the following (the javascript has been highlighted):
    I was able to recover to a previous version (without RH's random destruction) b/c I used SVN, but I now have zero confidence in RH's stability. I definitely did not insert the above javascript into my project. I kept the default setting for the compiled help to go to the subfolder of the help system (i.e., !SSL!, WebHelp). Does anyone know why this happened?

    I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but it sounds close enough that I'd like to post it here...
    Issue
    I was either getting topic breadcrumbs in all of my topics (when they shouldn't have been), or getting "double" breadcrumbs (one stacked on top of the other) when I only should have had one breadcrumb. However, I didn't want any!
    Background
    By the time I had inherited this RH project (WebHelp), it had been worked on by at least three people over five years, using older (pre-9.0) versions of RH. I had just loaded RH ver. 9 when I took it over.
    Solution
    I noticed that there was a "breadcrumb" placeholder in the master page (xxxxx.htt) of the project. In the Single Source tab, when I right-clicked on WebHelp (Primary Output), and did not check the "Add breadcrumbs links" under the Navigation pane, I only saw one breadcrumb link in my generated output. When I checked the "Add breadcrumbs links", I saw two breadcrumb links in my generated output. When I deleted the "breadcrumb" placeholder in the master page (xxxxx.htt) of the project and did not check the "Add breadcrumbs links" under the Navigation pane in the WebHelp (Primary Output), then I finally saw no breadcrumbs in my generated output. Likewise, when the "Add breadcrumbs links" was checked, one breadcrumb was generated in the topic.
    Lessons Learned
    I suspect that either an earlier version of RH did not have this "Add breadcrumbs links" under the Navigation pane when you generated output (which mean that an earlier RH author had to use the breadcrumbs via the "placeholder" feature on the master page), or someone just didn't know how to implement the "breadcrumbs" feature correctly. In either case, I'm a little wiser from all of this!
