why is the new firefox constantly blinking on my screen? everything else is fine but firefox now blinks and is unusable in 4.0

Hi DGuerra, based on a past thread, the missing comments may be related to using avast! and its browser add-on(s).
Firefox is so easy to customize that it's not really surprising to find differences between two systems. These can relate to the menu choices (orange Firefox button or classic menu bar), toolbar layouts, and of course, add-ons.
If you have a preference for one setup versus another, hopefully these articles can equalize some of those layout issues:
* [[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar]]
* [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars]]
You can compare extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
Perhaps you can get the two side-by-side to make it easier, or to extract a text list, you can use the troubleshooting information page. Either:
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
The button in the upper left corner "Copy text to clipboard" will grab the configuration information from entire page.

  • Can I get help with podcasts?  When I try to open the podcasts, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish.  everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

    The only other thing I can suggest is to use the Repair option for iTunes.
    Download the iTunes programme (do not uninstall your current iTunes) and then "install" the new copy. At some stage you should see an option to "install" or "Repair". Take the Repair option.
    Once you've done that, if you still have a problem, I don't know what else to suggest, except to search through the discussions to see if anyone else has had the problem and managed to fix it.

    You'll need to erase the drive by booting up holding command-option-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
    Use Disk Utility to erase the disk and then Internet Recovery. That will take a while.

  • How can i change the last frame in a trailer i have converted.  everything else is fine but the wording is wrong on the final "credits" and don't know how to edit after converting it to a project.  Thanks to All.

    looking to edit the final frame which is the the "credits" section.  I have already  converted the trailer.  Is it too late to correct some nserts in the credits?
    Thanks to all.

    If by "converted" you mean that you've converted the trailer to a normal project using the menu option File>Convert to Project, then YES it is still possible to edit the Credits Title.
    In the converted project, double-click on the blue Title bar that sits above the background clip. In the Viewer, double-click on the text you wish to change (or highlight text by dragging over it). Now you can replace the highlighted text by typing in the new text. You can also change fonts and font colours.
    It's always good practice to duplicate the Trailer before converting it. To do this, while in Project Library view, click on the Trailer name in the Library then select File>Duplicate Project. A copy will appear in the Library with the same name as the Trailer, but with the number 1 appended. You can rename this copy as desired. Now, convert the duplicate to a standard project and continue with your editing as required. You now have the original Trailer in template form (which can be further edited), and can duplicate it again if required.

    EDIT: Regarding my first sentence - just noticed that you did mention "converting it to a project" in you topic header. Sorry!

  • Why is the new Illustrator so buggy?! Is anyone else having this problem?

    I am wasting so much time waiting for the program. The things that nearly crash it are, "moving linked images", opening my layers panel, selecting linked images, clicking off linked images will even stop everything.

    I am running on an iMac QuadCore i7 processor with 16GB RAM and the 1TB fusion drive. According to the specs the computer isn't the problem. When illustrator is thinking, I can open an internet window, make edits in PS, open and play iTunes, while downloading something...all while illustrator is frozen. I am having most trouble with links. simple selecting a linked image (full frame, high res), inside a clipping mask stops illustrator for a good 5 minutes. Then releasing the clipping mask takes another 5. Any idea what is happening?

  • What is a 403 Forbidden error message which I get on firefox, safari and chrome. I don't know if it is the website or something with my mac though everything else works fine.

    When trying to log in to crossstitch.com I get this message:
    You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.
    Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
    Apache mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.crossstitchforum.com Port 80
    I googled the error message and don't really understand what it means.
    I don't know if it is the website or something else. I am not sure where to check and I don't know how to get in touch with the webmaster. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

    If it is a Firefox add-on, you may be able to disable or remove it here:
    new Firefox button > Add-ons > Extensions
    or

  • 10.6.8 Update Issue: My cursors are of an older clunky style. Just the cursors seem to have lost resolution. Everything else seems fine.

    All my finder cursors reverted to something with less resolution when I login. Logging into the guest account does not have same issue so it's clearly account specific. Happened after 10.6.8 upgrade. Is the issue associated with Universal Access? How can I get hte cursors to back to their higher resolution?

  • Why is the New FireFox so different to the previous version?.

    Prior to upgrading if I brought up my FireFox page I had a header the same as my Google Page. The new/latest FireFox Page does not have the header with the options. Those options were,Images-Videos-Maps-News-Shopping-Mail and a More option with a drop-down menu. Why is this the case?.

    ''Why is the New FireFox so different to the previous version?''
    I'll pass pass on the "why", although the reason given would be to improve Firefox by having a page that is on your system -- but the the content is not exactly on your system. I always find it amazing that there is anyone who uses the default home page, especially when Firefox has s builtin search bar. Even a couple of my friends who think the internet is their former ISP have there former ISP's page as their their home page.
    To restore a Google search page you can replace your homepage with http://www.google.com then you will see those Google applications at the top of the window.

    Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on my web sites with a huge wide black border? They should be narrow and yellow!! I use iWeb for my web sites on an AppleMac iMac 22" wide screen.

  • Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

    Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

    You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
    If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
    If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.
