Why doesn't text search work for me in Firefox 30?

Tried out the ctrl+F command, and even when I type a single character, it always come up as red.
Another issue that is minor, but still very heavy on power users I'd say, is that when you ctrl+F, it doesn't highlight the search bar immediately/automatically. You have to click the search bar and then enter the text that you want to search for.

Start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Safe Mode to Troubleshoot the issue] and to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Why doesn't the Zoom work on images in Firefox 4 ? The page Zoom works for webpages but not for pictures like Firefox 3.7 did :(

    I have already seen the "page Zoom" help article and that doesn't solve the problem.
    with Firefox 3.7 i could view an image and use the "control" & + & - keys to zoom in and out but with the new Firefox4 that zoom only works on webpages and does not work for images like it did before.
    is there a solution to this ?
    example:
    http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/images/a11easep.jpg
    when i had Firefox 3.7 , i could zoom in and out but now it doesn't work with Firefox4
    what's the deal ? : )

    Check the Zoom settings: View > Zoom > Zoom Text Only

    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

  • Why doesn't Java3d applets work for everyone?

    I have a site with java3d applets:
    http://www.psyanimations.com
    Quite often, the visitors to the site can't get Java3d-applets to start even if they have installed Java3d.
    Eventhough they have modern PC's with new operating systems and hardware. Why does this happen? I have a detailed page with descriptions on how to install it:
    http://www.virtualexp.net/install.htm
    but still about 1/3 of the visitors have trouble getting Java3d applets to work.
    This annoys me a lot. I'm considering to start program my visuals in some other language than Java3d.
    It just don't seem reliable when so many people can't get Java3d applets to work. What reasons could there be for a Java3d applet to not work eventhough Java and Java3d is installed?

    Do the visitors with problems receive any specific error messages?

  • Why does double-click not work for files of Firefox type under Windows 7 (Firefox 15.0.1)?

    If in the Windows Explorer of Windows 7 I double-click the name of a file that is mentioned as being a Firefox file by its file type symbol, it should be launched. But this doesn't happen. If I select "Open with" > Firefox" in the file's context menu, nothing happens. But if I select another browser, the file will be launched.

    Hi,
    You can try to right-click a file > '''Open with''' > '''Choose default program''' > '''Browse''' (disregard any existing entry) and select Firefox, and also enable (tick) '''Always use the selected program to open this kind of file'''.

  • Forum search doesn't seem to work for Date Range 'ALL'

    Hi there,
    Forum search doesn't seem to work for Date Range option: 'ALL' .
    For a given search criteria, I get few search results when the date range is chosen as 'last year', but for the same search criteria, when the date range is chosen as ALL, no search results are shown (not even the ones shown earlier for last year selection).

  • Why is predictive text not working on my iPhone 5s anymore

    Why is predictive text not working on my iphone anymore

    Actually, I just found the answer to my issue in this thread: The type correct/predict function for mail and text in iOS 8.0.2 was working fine then suddenly disappeared and reverted to the old style. I've checked all settings that seemed appropriate. How do I restore? I actually liked the new version. 
    Which says "a thin gray bar with a white dash in the middle of it immediately above the keyboard, you can reopen the suggestions by sliding up with one finger on the white dash." 
    That did it.
    I too have noticed a change, it seems with the new IOS update. My Predictive setting is on, but it seems before it would come up more often in predicting words and also give me a few choices. Now, it's not coming up as much and only providing one 'predictive' word which is not always right. This change is not very useful.

  • Why doesn't my timeline work in IE?

    I created this page with a basic timeline.  The timeline works in Firefox, Safari and Chrome but not in IE.  All my browsers are up to date. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks again,
    Steve

    Nancy; THANK YOU!!  OK..it still does not work but I see where there are a lot of errors. I changed the head tags and it still does not work but I would assume I can go to the site/page you sent and it analyzes webpages for errors?  I will keep at it til I get it right or maybe redo the page but thank you very much for your time...I truly appreciate it.

  • My iPhone 5 randomly shutdown and rebooting doesn't seem to work for me, what should I do?

    It also happens when I'm charging my phone, and also the battery percentage doesn't show that correct battery level not unless I turn off and on.. I tried rebooting the phone but it doesn't seem to work for me, random shutdown still happens..

    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
    If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
    thanks,
