Why don't I see the 'Emoticons' and 'Format' tabs when composing a message in the new Yahoo Mail, using Firefox, but I do when using Internet Explorer?

I have been using the new Yahoo Mail on Firefox. But today I noticed that when I write an email (Compose/Reply/Forward), I cannot format it. Only the 'Attachments' tab is present, but the 'Emoticons' and 'Format' tabs are not.
But when I do it using Internet Explorer, all those tabs are present and I can format and do whatever.
Is there something wrong with my Firefox? I have restarted my computer, I have shut it down, but my Yahoo Mail remains problematic when using Firefox.

Firefox only allows you to save executable files. If you want to add an option to run them you can use the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902

  • Using my Web.Mail account with demon (THUS). I can NOT login using Firefox but I CAN with (choke) Internet Explorer. The login names and passwords ARE correct.

    Initially, the Demon support desk asked me to reset all my browsing history which did nothing.
    I tried Internet Explorer (7.0.5730.11) and this too failed initially but after several tries, I managed to log in and collect my mails.
    I then logged out and tried Firefox, which failed (Incorrect log in name or password).
    I immediately tried IE again and got in first time.
    In Firefox (TOOLS, OPTIONS, SECURITY, EXCEPTIONS), I set web.mail.demon.net to permit the site any access that might have been denied.
    The user name and password ARE correct (that would be too easy) but Firefox seems not to send one of these correctly ??? or is not sending something I.E. does.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • Why can I not open Yahoo Mail in Firefox but can in IE?

    I have recently updated my Firefox to 5.0. Now I cannot open my Yahoo mail box. The landing page downloads and I can see my email title, but when I click to open the email the link is dead. None of the features on the Yahoo mail page works.
    Everything works fine on Internet Explorer.

    go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
    Check if it works without Add-ons.
    Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. You can enable the Add-ons later. Check and tell if its working.

  • Why do pictures appear in the wrong position in Firefox but in right place in Internet Explorer?

    I am running Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 3.6.6 and have been looking at the following website www.finningley.org and on the home page there is a picture of an aeroplane that appears in the correct place on Internet Explorer but is over the text in Firefox. I have tried changing the resolution but Firefox always looks incorrect whereas I E is fine. What can be done to solve this issue?

    The overlapping is caused by the fixed height of the containing DIV:
    <pre><nowiki><div style="border-style: inset; width:645px; height:127px"></nowiki></pre>
    If you leave out the height then it looks much better.<br />
    <pre><nowiki><div style="border-style: inset; width:645px;"></nowiki></pre>
    I don't know if you can make that gallery work properly with scroll buttons.

  • I use firefox as my web browser not internet explorer and for some reason itunes says i am not connected to the internet when i am connected.

    i use firefox as my internet browser. when i go to itunes to download music it says i am not connected to the internet when actualy i am. what am i doing wrong?

    Firefox is a web browser not a homepage.
    It sounds like you you have the old www.google.com/firefox/ start page that used to be the default homepage in Firefox before Firefox 4.0 sometime. It is not being maintained by Google anymore so either ignore the message or while in Firefox go to Tools->Options->General->Homepage section and change your homepage.

  • Why can't I open Slideshow in Yahoo mail in Firefox 15.0.1 when it works fine if I use Safari? Mac OS X / v10.7.5

    For the last two days I've had a problem opening attached photos in the Yahoo Mail Slideshow feature. The screen goes to a grey layer as usual, but the photo never opens to view it. I don't think it's a Yahoo problem as the Slideshow works fine if I access my mail using Safari.
    Some older posts suggested clearing the cache of personal cookies, but I don't store any history on this computer so there is no cache to clear.

    Thank you.
    I've restarted Firefox in Safe Mode as suggested and when I open the Yahoo Mail slideshow it works fine. I guess that tells me there may be a corrupted file somewhere. I'm just not sure how to go about finding out how to correct it. When I try to switch to the 'Default Appearance Theme' it won't allow me to do it while in Safe Mode. Should I be trying this AFTER I get back out of 'Safe'?
    I don't keep any cache so I'm not sure how I can bypass it. I've tried reloading the mail inbox page by pressing "Command + Shift + R" but to no avail...
    This problem just came up in the last two days, so I went back one week in my Time Capsule backup to reload a copy of Firefox from a time when I wasn't having problems - still no luck. The photos won't open in the slideshow preview on Firefox unless I'm running in Safe Mode.
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions as to how to isolate the file or add-on that may be corrupted...

  • I can't get the volume to work when I use firefox. It does work on internet explorer. What is going on?

    I downloaded firefox in order to do some online training that I couldn't open in any other browser. I can't get the volume to work in this browser. I can use internet explorer and the volume works. But I can only do the training through firefox.

    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
    Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
    You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.<br />

  • When trying to open my yahoo mail account, it just freezes on blank page, internet explorer opens it fine, this is the only site that has a prob for me

    i can view the login page. I enter my login and pword. Then it just goes to a blank page. The tab at the top of the page and the address bar shows a continuous changing address and nothing happens

    This is how I fixed it on my new iPhone 5S. Using the standard yahoo setting on my phone.
    You will have to access  "managing your app passwords" on your account profile for yahoo. Generate password for your app. For example: "My iPhone 5S'
    Go to your Iphone and set up your yahoo mail account on your phone the normal way and you have to use the generated password.  instead of the yahoo account password.

  • Images don't show on my website in Firefox but show just fine in Internet Explorer

    http://www.SurviveDiabetes.com/Essay/Essay1.htm
    I've tried the usual remedies - Images or Animations do not show, Favicon permissions - I'm stumped!
    The image files don't show when I click the favicon (to the left of the URL), then More Information, then Media - other sites show many image files. The Essay1.htm file was created as a doc in Word 10 then published to an htm file - there's an associated Essay1-files folder which contains the image files in the order used. Is Firefox expecting to find this info in the htm file somehow? How do I tell Firefox where to look?

    That is still an MS Office document and Firefox can't display such a file like IE can.
    Firefox doesn't know about files like this to add images:
    *http://www.survivediabetes.com/Essay/Essay1_files/filelist.xml
    You need to use a W3C compliant HTML editor to create your website and embed the images via <nowiki><img></nowiki> tags.
    If you do not have such an editor then look at KompoZer.

  • Some of the tabs I click on within websites will no longer respond in Firefox. They will respond in Internet Explorer. Can you givwe me some direction as to how to fix this.

    The tabs that will not respond are usually at the top of the page that give access to different sections in the website. It often will include the log in and log off tabs.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause this issue. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • Internet is really slow over a home Wi-Fi router using Firefox; speeds up dramataically if using Internet Explorer. WHy?

    For months I have been battling with slow internet connection speeds with my Wi-Fi router at home. I have changed everything and tested every alternative configuration. I have even changed the router. In the end I have worked out it is not the router, or the OS, or the windows user account that are the problem. It is using Mozilla Firefox. I really want to carry on using Firefox but I cannot. Using Fiirefox I might get a connection speed of about 500Kbs; using IE I get the full 10 Mbs that my ISP (cable) gives. It is not consistent: the problem comes and goes. But when the problem is there, it can be fixed by stopping using Firefox and using IE instead. Why could this be?

    The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
    Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.
