Why doesn't yahoo page fill my new 20 inch display?

I have used and loved firefox for about two years, have just bought a new computer with a larger 20 inch monitor and the content of my yahoo homepage only fills about 60% of the display. It is centered, just not large enough. This was never an issue with my previous 17 inch monitor.
When viewed via IE, it fills the screen to about 85%.
PLEASE tell me there is an easy adjustment I am missing. I can't stand the empty void on both sides of my viewing field

  • Why doesn't each 'page's info' adhere to the settings for the plug-ins?

    When I check my plugins, add ons, for updates, there are option blocks on the right that set whether or not to "Always Activate" or "Always Ask". My question is- -for every page that opens, there is a "page info" option we can check to see/check what is allowed or blocked under Permissions ... And* what the Permission 'settings' ARE for That* page. Why doesn't EVERY page display the Permissions' settings that we have Already set on the Plugins screen*(?). EVERY page has to have the permissions re-done for EVERY domain/server/site provider. Why* aren't the settings that are set on the Plugins screen Used* AS the 'Default' for every page/domain/site, etc.? Note*- if I DON'T change the permissions to "allow", for certain plugins, the page will not work*.
    Also, the "Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.450.18 10.45.2.18" still* shows as "Vulnerable" After* updating (verified update*). So I found the option to 'Disable' this particular plugin. Now it displays at the bottom of the Plugin page, greyed out. However*... after updating to Java "SE7 U45" (..for 1 [One*] day ONLY, it showed as Up-to-Date, NOT vulnerable, on every 'page info' screen*) ... and Actually, it Still Does show as Up-To-Date after an Update check*..(??)... But on EVERY page info screen the "Java(TM) Platform SE7 U--Vulnerable Plugin!" is displayed (?). How can it be Up-To-Date and OK on the plugin check screen, but show as a "Vulnerable Plugin" on EVERY 'Page Info' screen?

    Sorry, RamboTrader ... I Thought I was replying to another guy that had made a suggestion to me*.. (MY bad*) ...
    ... But I'll try to answer some of your questions ...
    1- usually, "yes"* just make sure you Trust that site (if you have anti-virus, anti-malware, etc, and run a scan every week (or so) and Haven't come up with anything quarantined or removed yet, you''re probably safe there*
    2- sorry, "yes", there's Always a real danger... that's why we have the anti-everything we have (right?)
    3- depends on the site*. A Lot of sites don't need java at all (except to run their ads or commercials... 'targeted' or not). Adobe Flash or Shockwave should be able to handle stuff like youtube, etc (but if it doesn't*, just go into the 'Page Info' Permissions* and Allow the [Vulnerable] Java and see if that fixes it). It more than likely will.
    I think it's just a matter of Time* before Adobe* Flash, and practically Every other video app/player may be marked as "vulnerable"... like Java... because every one of them CAN carry a virus or trojan to us in some imbedded format. If JAVA couldn't find a way to stop them* (hackers, etc*) they either ..1-aren't smart enough, or 2-just gave up trying to stay ahead of them... (like the 'ad' says, some-unGodly-percentage-of-machines use Java already ... so They are making Their money*... what more do they need to do, really..?). They don't care* about us or our stuff, as long as we Buy More.... but I'm a bit jaded*.

  • Why doesn't Yahoo load correctly on my iMac

    For some reason my computer won't load many websites owned by yahoo correctly including Yahoo News, Yahoo Answers, and Flickr. Tumblr seems to load fine. It's the same on any browser (I've tried Chrome, Firefox, and Safari).
    When I say it doesn't load correctly I mean that any yahoo page I go to will be completely unformatted, just plain text and no images. No other computers on the same wifi have this issue. I've just been dealing with it for the past few months because it's not that big of a deal to miss out on Yahoo News, but it would be nice to get Flickr images to load. Thanks.

    did you ever get it fixed? I've been having this problem for the past few days. I tried clearing everything in safari but still no luck. using chrome on my mac is still the same. but when i use my ipad on yahoo mail, it's fine. i don't know how to fix this, pls help.

  • Ios 7.0.3. WHY doesn't the whole screen fit properly. Display is cut

    The whole display screen doesn't fit properly on the new 7.0.3 update?! My screen keeps getting zoomed in and cut, and it keeps getting moved. My phone is slower too. NOT HAPPY
    <Edited by Host>

    is your zoom on? Try double tapping with three fingers on your screen, it should go back to normal and then go to settings>general>accessibility>zoom and disable it

  • Why does "My Yahoo" open in a new tab [only after a restart of the system] when I open Firefox and my options are set to restore tabs?

    after a system restart, when I open Firefox, a new tab appears with My Yahoo displayed. I have my options set to restore session/tabs, with my home page listed as blank [not the best, i know]. I have not installed any new programs, other than Norton, to 2010 and have only done updates as required.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == recently...I usually only shut down for reboots.

    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later or [[Clearing private data|Clear Private Data]] in Firefox 3 to clear the 'Browsing History' when Firefox is closed then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

  • Why doesn't the length of a new event correspond to the size?

    I see three new events with the following length and size:
         97.43 minutes     -     29.34 gb
         107.3 minutes     -     22.86 gb
         103.2 minutes     -     24.08 gb
    Why does the shortest file (97 min) have the most size (29 gb) while the opposite is true for the longest file?

    Try switching between the Sticky Footer option in Site/Page Properties. Read more about it here - http://www.adobekb.com/creating_mobile_layouts_pt03.html#additional

  • Why doesn't clicking on "+ Open a New Tab" open a new tab?

    Clicking on the plus sign at the top of the page at the right end of the open tabs used to open a new tab. It doesn't anymore. How do I open new tabs????

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> 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).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Why doesn't "synchronize folder" pick up new images?

    Hi all.
    I edited a picture and saved it in the same directory, as a PNG.  On my next launch of Lightroom (2.1), I right-clicked on the folder and said "Synchronize folder".  The file still isn't shown in Lightroom.  If I pick "Show in Finder" on the folder, the PNG is right there and it opens up just fine in Preview when double-clicked.
    Is this a known defect?
    Thanks.

    "Lightroom is NOT an image browser! It is a photo management program.  Bridge is more like an image browser."
    A photo management program can't function effectively without an image browser.  I don't see that this point is even worth debating.  If you want to manage your pictures by looking at filenames and dates, go right ahead.  I think most people demand thumbnails these days.
    "It's design is such that it doesn't "expect" pictures to be plopped into its directories""
    That's poor design.  There are "professional" cameras that can transmit image files directly to a computer wirelessly as they're taken.  That's just one example of why pictures would be "plopped" into directories by exactly the customer that Lightroom is supposed to serve.  Having to baby-sit your entire directory structure manually is just amateurish programming.
    Photographers will often need to make adjustments to pictures, adjustments that Lightroom does not perform, thus the option to "edit in Photoshop" right there in the context menu.  After editing, any conscientious photographer will want to save the image in a lossless format.  It doesn't matter if that format doesn't carry metadata, because Adobe can (and already does) store additional information in a sidecar file.  Adobe could've added a lot of value by giving users the ability to retain selected metadata through the round trip from Lightroom to Photoshop.
    "It seems a little unreasonable to me to belabor something, demanding (almost) that the program be modified to meet your specific needs when those needs are outside the realm of normal photographic editing activities."
    So you're arguing that any function not offered by Lightroom isn't a "normal photographic editing activity".  I don't think you'll find wide consensus on what should and shouldn't be included in those activities.  Nor do I think that people will agree that image browsing isn't one of them.

  • Why doesn't Apple maps update when new roads are built

    Apple maps does not update after new roads are built the way google map does.  Why not?

    From my experience, Apple maps take a bit longer to update compared to Google Maps. Have you checked to see if the new road is found on OpenStreetMap.org? I believe that is one API that Apple Maps pulls from.

  • New iTunes doesn't let me fill a new playlist with songs off an iPod

    THIS USED TO WORK ON OLDER VERSIONS OF ITUNES. I own an ipod Shuffle. Sometimes iTunes Autofills my Shuffle with a cool mix of songs from my iTunes library. I want to make that new set of songs into a new playlist in my iTunes. I used to be able to do this by simply: (1) create a new playlist in iTunes, (2) select all the songs on my Shuffle, (3) drag the songs from my Shuffle on to the new playlist's icon.
    Sometimes, I won't use the Autofill feature and I will manually drop songs from my Library into my Shuffle. I'll drop a couple songs on to my Shuffle each day. Over the course of a month, I will have slowly built up a set of songs of all my current favorites on my ipod shuffle. Well, of course, I'd like to make all those songs on my Shuffle into a new playlist in iTunes, so I can "preserve" the set of songs I spent weeks building up. Again, I used to be able to do this very easily, but for some reason, in the latest version of iTunes, I can not drag and drop songs from my Shuffle into a playlist.
    Let me make clear, I own all this music and all the songs on my Shuffle are already in my Library on my Macbook. This is a matter of creating PLAYLISTS from whatever songs are on my Shuffle at any given time. PLEASE BRING BACK THIS CAPABILITY.

    Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • Why doesn't Java download on my new iMac?

    I have a brand new iMac 3.4 gHz intel core i5 and have upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 and many of the programs that I migrated over from my laptop are not supported on my new computer.  I cannot update my Java program/software, so it comes up with everything that I am running and won't allow me to work in some programs until I have it installed.  I have tried to install it and it says 'successful" every time, but the Java window pops up frequently telling me that "in order to view, you must instal Java" 
    Can anyone shed some advice?

    click system preferences->java in the java control panel click the update tab if it says "your system has the recommended version of java" then reboot the computer.

  • Why doesn't my page document open suddenly?

    First, please understand me. I am Korean..(in South Korea that is also a nationality of Yuna Kim)  
    So, I am not used to speak in english very well: especially, Writing.......
    Please help! I have had some problem!!
    I suddenly cannot open my document in pages5.1(update version)...Ofcourse, I have done my job in pages5.1, and other documents can also be opened.
    when I try to open the document, an emerging message shows that just "it cannot be opened" in Korean language.
    (the document contains many contents.....many works.....)
    Anyway, I want to know how to open the document in pages program or other program !
    In particular, I don't understand this situation because its all pakage files are survived...
    Please help me....

    I have this problem as well with 2 files after I upgraded to iOS7.  Most of my documents will open (although VERY SLOW and a lag so long I can go make myself some popcorn) but there are 2 documents that for some reason are black icons that will NOT open. 
    I have restarted the iPad, synced it again, added a saved version of the doc from my desktop, e-mailed myself the document to open, but still- pages will NOT open this document.
    Luckily I had a print out and could retype the file, but how can this be considered a reliable USABLE app for professionals if it arbitrarily decides not to open certain documents?
    I've decided not to do ANY serious work on the iPad until there is a fix.  And there's always Microsoft Office for iOS which released to day, much as I hate MS.

  • Why doesn't the "auto fill" feature of my google bar not work with Firefox 4 ???

    Google bar's "auto fill" feature worked EVERY TIME with the last version of Firefox, but works rarely with Firefox 4. ????
    I have reinstalled my google bar AND Firefox 4, but that didn't help.

    We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
    #Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
    #In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
    #From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
    #Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
    #Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
    #Paste each ID with '''bp-''' into the reply window on the forums.
    Thanks in advance!
