Why does the "show the blocked pop-up" option not appear?

The pop-up blocker used to give the option to "show the blocked pop-up." This option is listed in parentheses on the Pop-Up Blocker help page. Since I upgraded to FireFox 9.0.1 (and still in 10.0) I often don't have the option to "show the blocked pop-up." Some sites are really unusable without this option.
There also used to be a question about this on the forums. It still shows up in a Google search, but not by searching FireFox Help. I'm running Windows XP, but the op was running Windows 7. I have not noticed the problem on my Linux machine at home.
My question is: Why does this option not (always) appear, and is there any way to make it appear?
Thanks!

You can set the default in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" and change that for the Shockwave Flash plugin to "Always Activate".
You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

    In formcentral, why does the "proceed to checkout" button not work? on IE I get error " This content cannot be displayed in a frame. To help protect the security of information you enter into this website, the publisher of this content does not allow it to be displayed in a frame ". On Chrome I get nothing but loading.

    Hi,
     This error is generally specific to Internet Explorer and has two possible causes. The most likely explanation is that your browser has unusual browser security settings. I would recommend you try
    resetting your security settings to defaults (varies by version but all essentially the same). You may also have to turn off
    Protected Mode which is enabled by default on some systems. If you’re seeing this error (or a version of it) outside Internet Explorer, you may have a server-level setting that is preventing your content from being framed.

    In most apps, you can't paste into the password field. It's a security risk.

  • Why is the Planned quantity in MCP9 not appearing(Repetitive Manufacturing)

    Sub:WHY IS THE PLANNED QUANTITY IN MCP9 NOT APPEARING(REPITITIVE MANUFACTURING
    Why are the planned orders not displayed anymore. They are still in the system - in  MD04 - but since we moved from release 3.1i to 4.0 the plan order qty disappeared  from transaction MCP9!!!!.Now we are using Version 4.7
    There must be a reason 
    Perhaps searching in  SAP OSS system -if the transaction is not supported in rel 4.0 anymore and we should use something else instead
    Or we need to apply an OSS note from SAP to repair the problem...
    Or the info system update must be modified because of rel change... I don't know.
    Please suggest your valuable guidance,Iam not able to enclose a screenshot of the problem,planned qty is 0 or it is not getting displayed.If you reply to this query i can send a detailed analysis to that mail id .

  • Why does the Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?

    Why does the The Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?  I tried everything.
    Can I use the Capsule as merely a back up without making use of Wifi?  By connecting by cable to the computer?

    Why does the The Time Capsule of my neighbour appears and not mine?  I tried everything.
    What generation is your neighbour's and what generation is yours??
    Sometimes the changes in the TC and firmware can make wireless fail.. also location is important.. the location of your neighbours might be better than yours.. his also might interfere with yours.. set a fixed channel and try the various channels.
    Can I use the Capsule as merely a back up without making use of Wifi?  By connecting by cable to the computer?
    Sure, but you need to work out how the network is going to work.. if you are still picking up network from wireless.. then set static ip for the TC in a different IP range.. set no gateway (router ip) or dns and it will work just fine.

  • Why does the 'block' function no longer work? I'm getting a bunch of garbage sites, and pop up requests on my normal sites!! :(

    I'm getting so tired of having that darn 'block pop-up windows' checked..and it doesn't do a darn thing. Why am I getting garbage sites when I'm going to my normal browsing sites? (e.g. yahoo mail, etc)
    I now get this weird MacVx garbage showing up everywhere and a bunch of these error messages which are annoying (I also have a Mac by the way)...it mentions 'my i.p. address' which is not correct (thank god), and it must think I'm an idiot...So....any way to resolve this before I trash my favorite browser forever???

  • Why does the BLOCK REPORTED WEB FORGERIES become disabled when I close Firefox?

    I will enable the BLOCK REPORTED WEB FORGERIES in the control panel, however if close and then open Firefox it will be disabled.

    At the moment I use Norton 360. I have Norton on other machines and it does not turn off the Block Attack Sites nor Block Reported Web Forgeries. My first thought is that I have been breached and Malicious Code is the culprit.

  • Why does the "open with" function often not recognize valid file extensions

    Sample situation: I often need to open JPGs downloaded from the Internet in Photoshop, but I need to keep the default program as Preview.
    When I attempt to open the image in PS using the "Open With" function (in the Edit menu), there are often no choices - it's blank, so I need to open it in preview and then save it as a PSD file to quickly open in PS. Other times I will get a list of other installed programs like Excel, and need to scroll down to the "open with another program" button, where I need to manually find the PS application. Of course, I can always open the file from within PS, but why is the Apple option so seemingly arbitrary from one similar file to the next?
    There is often no rhyme or reason for the programs it offers me.
    This happens with other file extensions, too.
    Is this a known bug?

    It's up to the applications to declare what types of files they can open. They do so by storing the information in the CFBundleDocumentTypes section of the Info.plist file in the application's .app directory. If you know what you are doing, you can edit the plist file to add your own file types/extensions. Unfortunately, I don't know of a good application to do that for you (but it's not a bad idea for one, if I get the time).

  • Why does the power button intermittently fault -- Not work to wake up the phone?

    Iphone 4 occassionally won't respond to the power/sleep button.  Isn't stuck -- works normally much of the time, but occassionally acts as though the battery is dead.  Have to plug into a power source to activate phone.  Battery will show same charge it had before it went into sleep mode.  Can be near fully charged and proceed working for the rest of the day just fine.
    Button does not stick or seem faulty in any way.  But, when you least need it to not work - such as in travel - or for emergences and have not power source to get to -- is bad.  An unreliable phone for a doctor is not good.  I have presented the problem to a few repair shops who are either not familiar with this behavior or suggest that is may be software rather than hardware.  Something miss reading the battery to the phone indicating that the battery is dead when in fact it is not.  Had the phone restored at the Apple store and this did not solve the problem.
    It seems I did run across a blog that this occurred with some IOS update?
    Would be grateful for advice.
    Thanks

    Hi

    There are a simular trick to get the home button to work, here it is.
    Open a default iOS application, such as Stocks, Calculator, or Weather
    Press and hold down the Power button until the “Slide to Power Off” dialog appears, then release
    Now press and hold the Home button until the “Slide to Power Off” screen disappears, quitting the application.

  • Why is the airdrop and airplay option not showing in my iphone 4s ?

    airdrop and airplay option not showing

    That link is addressing only iOS 7 in general, not the iPhone 4S specifically. I have already answered your question here: airdrop and airplay option not showing iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2. It is the same answer as what wjosten have provided in this post. Air Drop is compatible with iPhone 5 and later.

  • Why does the first track on an album appear after the other tracks?

    When I downloaded iTunes and did an initial media scan, it added all my music files. However, on some of the albums added, not all, the first track is listed after the other tracks. For instance, the track list goes from 2-13 and then 1. This is only happening on some of my multi-disc albums, again not all, and not on the single disc albums. One of the tracks on Disc 2 actually appears on Disc 2 but has Disc 1 written above it. I am running the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7 Home Premium edition, and everything else seems to work fine. This is what I've tried on my own so far, all without success;
    1.) I've checked the track 1 properties using "get info" and compared them to other tracks. They seem fine.
    2.) I've deleted the track 1 songs and re-added them, but they return the same way.
    3.) I've deleted the entire albums and re-added them, but the problem remains.
    Does anyone have any ideas about what's causing this bit of weirdness?

    I had this problem too, and for a long time it aggravated me. I found that you just have to keep importing the cd, again and again, until it sounds ok. Select only the tracks that are fuzzy to speed things up. Hope this helps.

  • Why does the latest version of iMovie not have an option of sharing with iDVD?

    How are you supposed to burn a DVD using the latest version of iMovie? I've always had the option to share to iDVD and now it's not there.

    It is there but you don't want to use it as it will degrade the quality of the movie.  Instead use the Share ➙ Media Browser option. 
    Then in iDVD go to the Media/Movies section and drag the movie into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones that may be there:

  • Why do the songs in my playlist not appear in the same order on my ipod as i have them on the computer

    When I arrange the songs on my ipod the way I want them, I disconnect my ipod from the computer and they are not in the order I created. Why does this keep happening--it makes me insane.  I have tried clicking "manually manage" vs. "not manually manage" and neither works.

    Sort by Date Added instead of Date Modified.
    The Date Modified can change itself for a bunch of reasons, which are not really interesting. The Date Added is stable and more meaningful.
