Why is the print lighter and the photos a little blurry when using Firefox?

It started on yesterday, Jan 4, 2012. With Firefox, the print is lighter and harder to read, and the photos, in general, seem unfocused/a little blurry unless you look real close. i didn't have that problem before switching over fro Safari.

Yes, just Safari. In Chrome, Firefox and all other applications it works as expected.

  • Sharing photos from iphoto 11, why does the photo information not upload when I click with share via email?  How can I make sure the photo information and location are shared when the photo (s) are shared.

    When I go to share photos in iPhoto 11, The photos transfer to the email I'm sending but the photo information and location don't.  The older version of iPhoto did it, why not this version?  What am I missing in the process of sharing via email?, Thank You.

  • Why is the MPE so much better when using Vista?

    I get more realtime playback using Windows Vista than When using Windows 7 with HDV. I can get better GPU and CPU playback both when using Vista for HDV. Why is that? Im using a GT 240 and it kicks *** with Vista. I use a second LCD TV monitor as an NTSC monitor for the realtime previews. I do get some realtime with Windows 7 but only about half as much as with Vista. Something is better about Vista for HDV clips but Idon't know what. I have done several fresh installs and updates. What gives? Any thoughts.

    I have done fresh OS installs and Windows updates. The GT 240 was added the same way. For HDV the Vista OS is better. For AVCHD they are about the same.  I think it is a bug. It works better using Windows 7 if I don't output to the LCD TV monitor. Do any of you use HDV and preview on a NTSC monitor?

  • How can I improve the quality of a photo that appears blurry when used in iMovie but not in iPhoto?

    A 320 x 240, 35 KB Jpeg file looks crisp and in focus in iPhoto.  But as soon as I put it into iMovie and hit full screen, it's blurry and looks terrible.  A photo taken with my Nikon D7100, a 3872 x 2582, 2.5 MB Jpeg photo translates to the big screen just fine, with perfect clarity.  How can I use this former picture but increase its clarity when it's magnified in iMovie?

    Apologies for opening this up again:
    I rasterised and embedded the photos, liked what I saw and marked the question as answered, then I zoomed out and lo! The white jaggedy edges are back! This is despite the fact I rotated them to vertical before rasterising them.
    It appears that the pixels in the rasterised image are relative to the screen, not relative to the object... so when I rotate the photo it goes back to the original hi-res photo and re-rasterises it to fit the new orientation.
    Also doing this has not lowered the filesize at all... It does appear that when you rasterise an image in Illustrator, the new raster is only a veneer, the original (hi-res photo) is still lurking in the background.

  • Why is the Tick Count function slow when used with a .dll but fine with normal lab view code?

    when using the Tick Count millisecond timer with a .dll I've written in C, I'm getting some odd timing issues.
    When I code the function I want (I'll explain it below in case it helps) in LV and run it as a subVI, feeding it the Tick count as an argument, the function runs quickly, but not quite as quickly as I would like. When I feed this same subVI just an integer constant rather than the Tick Count, it takes about the same amount of time, maybe a tiny bit more on average.
    When I bring in my function from a .dll, however, I start to run into problems. When I feed my function an integer constant, it is much faster than my subVI written in LV. When I feel my .dll the Tick Count, however, it slows down tremendously. I'm including a table with the times below:
                 |  Clock   |   Constant   |
    SubVi:   | 450ms  |  465ms       |
    .dll         | 4900ms|  75ms         |
    This is running the function 100,000 times. The function basically shifts the contents of a 2-dimensional array one place. For this function, it probably won't be a huge deal for me, but I plan on moving some of my other code out of LV and into C to speed it up, so I'd really like to figure this out.
    Thanks,

    Hi Aaron,
    Thanks for posting the code -- that made things a lot clearer for me. I believe I know what's going on here, and the good news is that it's easy to correct! (You shouldn't apologize for this though, as even an experienced LabVIEW programmer could run into a similar situation.) Let me explain...
    When you set your Call Library Function Node to run in the UI Thread you're telling LabVIEW that your DLL is not Thread-safe -- this means that under no circumstances should the DLL be called from more than one place at a time. Since LabVIEW itself is inherently multithreaded the way to work with a "thread-unsafe" DLL is to run it in a dedicated thread -- in this case, the UI thread. This safety comes at a price, however, as your program will have to constantly thread-swap to call the DLL and then execute block diagram code. This thread-swapping can come with a performance hit, which is what you're seeing in your application.
    The reason your "MSTick fine behavior.vi" works is that it isn't swapping threads with each iteration of the for loop -- same with the "MSTick bad behavior.vi" without the Tick Count function. When you introduce the Tick Count Function in the for loop, LabVIEW now has to swap threads every single iteration -- this is where your performance issues originate. In fact, you could reproduce the same behavior with any function (not just TIck Count) or any DLL. You could even make your "MSTick fine behavior.vi" misbehave by placing a control property node in the for loop. (Property nodes are also executed in the UI thread).
    So what's the solution? If your DLL is thread-safe, configure the call library function node to be "reentrant." You should see a pretty drastic reduction in the amount of time it takes your code to execute. In general, you can tell if your DLL is thread-safe when:
    The code is thread safe when it does not store any global data, such as global variables, files on disk, and so on.
    The code is thread safe when it does not access any hardware. In other words, the code does not contain register-level programming.
    The code is thread safe when it does not make any calls to any functions, shared libraries, or drivers that are not thread safe.
    The code is thread safe when it uses semaphores or mutexes to protect access to global resources.
    The code is thread safe when it is called by only one non-reentrant VI.
    There are also a few documents on the website that you may want to take a look at, if you want some more details on this:
    Configuring the Call Library Function Node
    An Overview of Accessing DLLs or Shared Libraries from LabVIEW
    VI Execution Speed
    I hope this helps clear-up some confusion -- best of luck with your application!

  • I can't open the chat bar in facebook when using Firefox, why?

    Whenever i use Firefox in Facebook, i can't open the chat bar and when i try to click Profile, I still have to confirm it. It's also the same when i try to look at notifications and when i try to log-out. Is there a way to make it stop asking me when i go to my profile without the browser asking me?

    I have exactly the same problem.
    It only affects FaceBook and only in Firefox but it's really annoying.
    I can post status updates but can't comment on them or on anything else.
    The message "Unable to post comment." with the option to "try again" appears every time.
    Also, when I try to "Like" something it's as if it works for a split second and then self "unlikes" again. It's only today I've started to have this problem.
    I've tried jscher2000's idea but it did not solve this problem.
    'Concerned a virus or something might be the cause... :/

  • Using OSX 10.9.4.  Why does the Finder Menu bar disappear when using Chrome?

    I've used Chrome for a couple years, and all of a sudden the Dock and the Finder Menu bar are not accessible when using Chrome.  They are present in every other app, as usual.  Please help me to get the Finder Menu and Dock active when using Chrome.  Thank you.

    Chrome may somehow be set to run in full-screen mode. I don't use Chrome so can't check its settings options, but try hitting ESC when Chrome is doing this and see if you get the menubar and Dock to reappear.

  • In an outgoing email message the "attach" document icon does not work in firefox. It does work when using internet explorer. How can I get the "attach" key to work when using firefox?

    Using firefox, if I am composing a new message in my hotmail account the "attachment" icon is not active, so nothing happens when I click on it in order to attach one of my word documents.
    The "attachment" icon is active when I am using hotmail and internet explorer.

    Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
    Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

  • Cannot click on sub-menus and notification prompts in Mircosoft Exchange when using Firefox.

    When I access Microsoft Exchange web app from Firefox I've can no longer click on pop-up sub-menus and notifications that I could previous use.
    For example, when I go to empty my deleted items folder and select empty folder, I get this notification (menu 1) that I now cannot click on. All I can do is just hit 'enter' to close the menus without actually making a yes/no input.
    Similarly, when i go to move folders and get this pop-up menu (menu 2), I cannot make any selection, and the 'enter' to close method does not work. All I can do then is close the page.
    I have tried disabling firefox's pop-up blocker but that did not rectify the issue. I can still use the sub-menus in other web browsers so this is a firefox specific problem.
    Any help in identifying the cause and remedying this would be greatly appreciated.

    Why?Because with another sites this never happenes but firefox never openes.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Why cant the controlfile be in sync, when using backup controlfile

    hi all,
    i understand a few point ...from a dba friend of mine..
    you need a resetlog to sync the datafile headers and the controlfiles
    1) you need a resetlog when doing incomplete recovery
    2) you can recovery completely using a backup controlfile provided you have all the necessary archived logs and online redo logs.
    3) but in order not to do resetlog after 2) , you must re-create the controlfile
    my questions are
    q1) are the following point above true ?
    *q2)  why cant oracle update the controlfile when recovering using the backup controlfile ? in that case, i do not need to recreate a controlfile , isnt it ?
    Rgds,
    Noob

    hi hermant,
    q1) why would i need to open the database with resetlog ?
    Yes. i am using a backup controlfile, but i have all the archived and online redologs till point of failure ?
    The purpose of a resetlog is to sync the controlfile and datafile headers , isnt it ? but i do not need to sync, as i have all the latest applied
    am i right ?
    If you use RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE in this case control file type is *"BACKUP"* but not *"CURRENT"* due to even you have all archivelogs and online logs you have to open database RESETLOGS statement.Actually after applying all archive and online redo logs ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS internally sync and "Say" to control files "RECOVER FINISHED".Because CF type is BACKUP.
    q2) You need to OPEN RESETLOGS. You can choose to create controlfile OR not create controlfile (i.e. open with the backup controlfile that was used for the RECOVER).
    If you do a CREATE CONTROLFILE it has to be CREATE CONTROLFILE RESETLOGS, followed by ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS.
    in what circumstances, would i need to re-create the controlfile when i can still use the backup controlfile ? as in any case, i would still need to resetlog.
    Rgds,
    NoobIf you have backup controlfile then do not need recreate control files.And you need use backup control file.If you lost all backup of control files and copies then or you want change database name then you can use RECREATE CONTROL FILE again.

  • I have 2 inches of empty space on both sides of the screen on all websites when using firefox. How do I get webpages to fill the screen?

    All my webpages on firefox have about 2 inches of empty space on both sides of the screen, but on Internet Explorer there is much less empty space or mostly none at all. How do i fix this?

  • Is anyone using PAM for archiving e-mail? I am having trouble opening archived e-mail attachments using Firefox. I know the reason for this is part of the url gets left out when using Firefox. Works fine with Internet Explorer.

    This part of the path https://mail.domain.org/owa/ (see below) when place in allows Firefox to open the attachment.

    Autodiscover service on Exchange seems to be ok from the result of testing. We might change our mind and check if this is a network issue.
