Why does the curser not change from an arrow to a hand and allow me to click of words that are "clickable"?.

In any website and on any webpage I can not click of links/words in the top 3cm of the page. Everything below I can click on with no problems. Why is this happening? How do I fix it? I am not computer literate so any help you can give me please respond in clear and detailed steps. I have tried reloading Mozilla Firefox but I am not sure it did re-load this internet browser. I have emptied my cookies, history and cache. What is the problem? Why is it doing it and how do I fix it? Please help me and urgently. Thanks.

the-edmeister, you are a genious. I went to "view" then "toolbars" and de-selected "yahoo toolbar" and then moved the curser over my firefox page and it now works completely including the problem area (the top 3 cm of each screen). Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. You have no idea how good I feel know on this otherwise cold, windy and rainy day.

  • Why does the color red change from working with images in develop to library?  The color gets lighter and nothing shows a change on histogram but visually you can see it.

    Why does the color red change from working with images in develop to library?  The color gets lighter and nothing shows a change on histogram but visually you can see it.

    That's probably a broken display profile. The conversion from Library's Adobe RGB is different than the conversion from Develop's linear ProPhoto, so if there's a problem with the display profile it can show up this way.
    Recalibrate, or if you don't have a calibrator use sRGB. If your monitor is a wide gamut model use Adobe RGB.
    Assuming Windows, change it in Control Panel > Color Management > Devices, and relaunch Lightroom so that it can pick up the new profile at startup:

    Why does the iPad not support flash player? I would like to watch programming from att uverse but cannot because of this restriction

    Because NOTHING that is iOS supports Flash. Never has never will.
    The only possible option is to try the Skyfire browser from the App store. It is an internet browser that converts flash to HTML 5 so that you can attempt to view it on iOS devices.
    I have never tried it so I can tell you if it is any good, but it has gotten decent reviews.

  • Why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor -- it is huge and unusable

    why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor? -- it is huge and unusable

    Many mysteries...
    Which is your OS version ?
    Your screen is 1920 by 1080 pixels.
    The problem appeared after having worked normally.
    When we select a picture from the organizer (album) and click on the edit button.  The editor software changes the entire computer resolution from 1920 x 1080 to   640 x 480 (very unusable).
    That's not clear for me: did you click on the 'Edit' button on the bottom right part of the organizer, or did you use the menu or the right click popup menu to open the editor? In the second case, you are in the editor workspace.
    We tried right clicking on the Elements 13 icon, select properties and under compatibility we made sure that "run in 640 x 480 screen resolution" was de-selected, and it was.    Cannot find any properties window for the editor?  
    The editor has its properties in the 'Edit/preferences' menu, but there is nothing about resolution there.
    Just to be sure : when you are in the organizer with the left 'Folders' panel shown, you highlight one of those pictures to edit. Then you right click and choose to "go to folder". Do the images are shown as 'offline' ? If that is the case, the original are on an external drive which is not connected, and what you are seeing is a 'preview' copy on your computer with 640 x 480 resolution.

    Why does the page not move smothe when i scroll?
    Sometimes it even move slower then i Scroll?
    I use a Mac and i have tried to reinstall the program.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

  • Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?

    Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS? this in the works?

    "Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
    Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
    "is in the works?"
    This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
    Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

    Apples developer conference begins tomorrow.

  • Why does the menu option change to "save as" after I select the print button?

    why does the menu option change to "save as" after I select the print button?

    >>The print command is selected in the File pull down menu, the print menu page pops up, I can then select my networked printer (which incidentally is confirmed to work with other software), the print command is in the bottom right hand corner and finally after depressing this print button a "save as" pop-up menu appears and then it only re-saves the file. Is this an issue with the pdf reader install?

    The system is back up and fully functional. How long has it been since you stopped receiving notifications? Can you share your form with us so we can have a look into what might be going wrong?
