Yahoo is doubling over the top of the preceeding news not allowing a clean write

Some of the Yahoo news entries do not have over write on them as I scroll to the next news. I have had to go into the Internet explorer on the other browser and all is clean without overwrites. I do prefer Firefox but to read the news I use the other browser. Sorry about that.

The Sky sound effects are annoying as well. Just because another broadcaster that I don't have a subscription with does something that's annoying, it doesn't mean I shouldn't be peeved off about stupid stuff that BT does.
I do actually watch the game. The problem is that team news is taking up a decent chunk of the screen during the last 10 minutes of the game I'm trying to watch. I care about the game I'm watching, not the team news that I could have found out on my phone, laptop, or numerous other devices 30-40 minutes before BT showed them.

Clicking on a link in My Yahoo shoots me up to the top of the page. Firefox or Yahoo problem?

Hovering over or clicking on a link in My Yahoo automatically takes me to the top of the page. Is this a My Yahoo problem or a Firefox problem?

I have not heard of this one before... If it's due to change in My Yahoo, we'll probably accumulate more posts about it.
Meanwhile...
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

How do you close a finder window on an iMac running Mountain Lion by double clicking on the top of the window like I can on my Macbook Air?

When I bought my Macbook Air in 2011, ( leopard on purchase - now mountain lion) I discovered how to close open Finder windows by double clicking at the top of the window. I have just bought an iMac (mountain lion) and for the life of me cant find out how to do the same. Finder preferences are no help. Can anyone out there be of some?
Thanks in advance

I know what you are referring to. In both cases, the window is minimized, but on your MacBook Air, your Finder window is minimized onto the Finder icon, and on the iMac, on the right side of the Dock.
To change this on your iMac, open System Preferences > Dock, and mark "Minimize windows into application icon"

Desktop appearance problem: For no apparent reason my Mac running OSX 10.4.11 imposed a mesh-like pattern over the folders on my desktop and also across the top of the screen and down the right-hand side where I have the dock. How do I remove it?

For no apparent reason my Mac (2 GHz PowerPC G5) running 10.4.11 has put a mesh-like pattern over the folders on my desktop and also a band of the same pattern across the top of the screen and down the right-hand side over the dock. (See screen grabs below.)
It doesn't affect any operations but makes folder names and drop-down menus difficult to read through the pattern.
I'm not aware of changing any settings so suspect I must have clicked on something without noticing. How do I get rid of the overlaid pattern, please?

Information about my computer is as follows:
Machine Name:          iMac G5
Machine Model:          PowerMac8,2
CPU Type:          PowerPC G5 (3.1)

I've lost the "Send" button in my reply window. When I double click on a Mail message, on order to reply, the "Send" button at the top of the window is missing. I can reply by closing and saving my reply, and re-openning from Drafts. How to fix?

Hi, try this...
If nothing is showing in the Toolbar at top, click the little gray oval at top right.
Right click or Control+click on the Toolbar, choose Customize Toolbar, drag the Send button to the Toolbar.

How do I get back the File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

how do I get back the "File Edit View History Bookmarks Yahoo! Tools Help" line of text that I could click on for options that used to be at the top of the browser window above the taps

I did that (I think I did) however the confusion is that I get only part of the menu and not the most important menu items like "file" "edit" etc. with all the drop downs. It is so freaky - my other computers have no problem like this and I and show the menu bar or not just like you described. I really doubt anyone really understands my problem with it. I took some screen shots of the good computer version and the bad one so someone can "see" exactly what I am seeing. This may be a one of a kind gremlin issue, LOL. Anyway, without those menu items, I am very limited on the usefulness of FireFox on that computer so I have to rely more on Chrome for those features and use the FireFox with Billeo and other tools that still work. Someday it may magically fix itself, LOL.
Of the two images, one is the good computer and the other is the bad. The bad one shows the only way to see the menu items however they disappear after I am done with the custom menu and no other time can I get the items to "appear" it is like they are there but cannot get them to show when in the normal menu bar mode.

Field is expanding over the top of the following fields

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but the expanding field expands just fine, but over the top of the next fields. I have two hidden subforms that are displayed when the user clicks a radio button. The subform is flowed. Each of the fields is in a flowed subform with Multiple lines, page breaks and expand to fit checked. The subform for the page is set to flowed as well. Document is saved as dynamic.
Thanks,
MDawn

Hi!
Do you have checked the "Auto fit" checkbox at the Layout tab for the floating subform?

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar.

Hover curser over song and there's no arrow for options to add the song to a playlist, the song has to be played for the arrow to appear, which is then at the now playing part in the middle at the top of the screen

The little arrow which says "Play Next, Add to Up Next, Go to artist" etc. only appears at the top of the screen on the now playing part. On 11.2 on my laptop before it got refurbished, this arrow appeared when you hover the curser over the name of a song.
Bit annoying having to change the song everytime I want to add it to a playist etc. Is there any way I can make this arrow appear again by just hovering over the song name?
Thanks.

If it happens again the make sure that you aren't suppressing website colors.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

I use Yahoo Calendar on my IPhone. For whatever reason when I go into my calendar I will see at the top of the screen that 5 or 6 "calendars" are being used and one of them is the one I called Dana_Gardner and is legitimate, the others are randomly named

I use Yahoo Calendar on my IPhone. For whatever reason when I go into my calendar I will see at the top of the screen that 5 or 6 "calendars" are being used and one of them is the one I called Dana_Gardner and is legitimate, the others are randomly named with letters and numbers. Why is the IPhone creating additional "calendars"? I only asked for one to be set-up. I don't understand, I have to go into the calendar settings daily and uncheck these un-asked for calendars. Help!

Mine is doing the same thing. I deleted the whole account from the mail settings and it got rid of most of the extra calendars. But there are still 2 gibberish ones left.

Just brought a new iPod touch and when I set it up (twice now, after resenting to factory settings) there are grey squares on all screens at the top and the apps over these squares won't open. Any suggestions?

I can't envision what yo are seeing.
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

Att Yahoo has a new format that includes highlighted, scrolling spam at the top of the in box

Is there a way to get rid of the spam at the top of the inbox. The ads scroll and say sponsored on the far right. A call to att was not productive in returning to the previous format that did not have spam. They are calling this their "new and improved version." They have also changed the way email appears when it is sent and responses are made which show "me' as from and "me" as response which is not helpful in locating old email. Could use a referral for a better email server.
