address bar problem

When I type a web address or search in the address/search bar it is glitchy. Hard to explain, but you can see that pieces of the letters you type. I have attached a screenshot to show what I'm talking about, I typed in www.skysports.com and you can see the bottom of the letters 'y' and 'p '. I tried to reset Firefox and also removed all Add - ons and it has not yet solved the problem.

And help would be appreciated.

Hi, please try the following: enter about: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named gfx.direct2d.use1_1. Double-click it and change its value to false.

  • Safari search/address bar of copy to URL problem

    This has been a problem for about a year, I think that, maybe more, even if I don't specifically remember.

    I often use search/address bar of Safari for searches on the internet, probably 90% of the time.  Sometimes, I want to share these search results with others.  The problem is, when I click in the address/search bar to select and copy the URL of the site, I visited, the URL is replaced with the search parameters that I had previously placed instead of the URL of the site that I actually visit.  It is not that this all the time, but very often.  Now that I'm trying to replicate, I can't, even though it took place just 20 minutes ago.  I was finally able to recreate by opening a new Safari window.  It is perhaps connected to tabs how do I open in the window?  Here is a screenshot.  Any ideas of what could be the cause?

    Try a reboot.

    Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

    Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

    Isolate a problem by using a different user account

    If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  • A possible solution to the problem of address bar: disable the Safari Suggestions

  • Problem for all Microsoft products that contains the functionality to search and address bar replace Outlook.

    I am facing a constant problem with IE 8, Control Panel, Windows Explorer and any other product that has an address bar. The problem is this: as soon as I finish the login sequence, so that on my desk, the content of the history of the address bar starts flashing quickly, even if I did not open IE or any other application. Once I open IE 8, control panel or any oher application that contains an address, historical content bar drop-down startup flashes quickly and blocks the page or the screen, it is impossible to execute any action/activity. Then, without making that one thing, the behavior stops for a while and the app works normally. Then it would start again.

    At the same time, when I open an email in Outlook, similar behavior takes place with search replace automatically shooting upward and find what drop-down box flashing quickly and my lock screen. I had to communicate with McAfee and had done everyhting in the perspective of the virus without result detection/removal.

    No matter what thoughs on what could cause this problem. Thanks for any help/comments/suggestions, that you can provide.

    Hi, on some sites of adobe muse, when I load, I get a mobile version of the site (on a laptop). I tried to remove the 'phone' and the words after that on the address bar and even cleaned my browser, but the problem still exists. What can be the reason? I am using Lenovo y50... help me please

    The y50 Lenovo is a hybrid and that manufacturers are especially ThinkPads, I guess that Adobe sees it as such is why you get the phone display.

    However, you can delete the 5876 to get a view of the desktop and all do it muse site

    for example, the home page

    change the /phone/index.html to businesscatalyst.com/index.html to see the office... I suppect you forgot the slash so delete/phone phone not only

  • Firefox has the critical problem with foreign languages for example Russian in the address bar! How to solve this problem?

    When I put the address in the address in Russian bar I see Google instead of my site. I don't want to not Google.
    Help please.

    When there is a space in the URL, the address bar search can kick.

    Don't know if you've changed, it's used everywhere else. Another way to disable the address bar search is:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste the keywords and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the keyword.enabled from true to false.

  • Why can't I drag-and - drop a link of my address bar on my Bookmarks Toolbar in 4.0? I have the toolbar enabled, but I can't do that. I was able to do it without problem with 3.6.

    Drag & Drop for bookmarking a link between the address bar and Bookmarks Toolbar does not work in 4.0. Worked in point 3.6, then I upgraded to 4.0 and everything went wrong. How can I fix?

    Rather than drag the link, try to drag the favorite icon /the site identity button which is on the left edge of the address bar to the bookmarks toolbar. That should allow you to add a bookmark to the bookmarks toolbar.

  • How can I stop Firefox giving search suggestions in the address bar?

    From the last update, if I start typing something in the address bar, I get random search suggestions as if I was using the search instead. How can I disable this? It is kind of annoying, and it really bothers me. I read in another article that I went to about: config and checked "I'll be careful", it would stop, but I'm worried it may screw up my browser. Is there another way to solve this problem? Or do I just move a superior browser?

    No it won't cause other problems as long as you do not change other preferences.

  • My address bar disappeared but not the navigation bar?

    I use the classic theme restaurateur and spin the current version. My address bar disappeared as well as the buttons next and previous.

    I know it will be jarring, but you can try the "Restore defaults" button in Firefox Safe Mode? In Safe Mode, Firefox temporarily disables extensions, hardware acceleration, and a few other advanced features to help you determine if they are at the origin of the problem.

    Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

    Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

    The customization panel works in Mode safe?

    And if so and you use Restore Defaults, Firefox looks better when you go out and start again normally?

  • Scrolls from the address bar

    Hello

    I currently use 42 FF as my browser and when I clicked on the arrow down on my address bar he use to drop down and show 12 items of my recent sites.

    I noticed that if I restart my browser it will be sometimes to fix it and put it back to fall down with 12 displayed.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem, so it goes back to the display always all 12 elements, as it is a pain to always necessary, made scroll to see when my screen fits all 12 without problem!

    Thank you

  • Drop-down menu of Firefox address bar Sporatically stops working

    I had this problem for about a year and some parts of the year are worse than others, and now, according to the latest update of Firefox, this problem is at its absolute worst.

    The drop-down menu in the address bar of Firefox sometimes stops displaying my newest and popularly seen the websites that I have visited. Whenever I have updated Firefox, the problem goes away and he used to stay at the gap to end of weeks in a row, but now the drop stops working almost whenever I close Firefox after this last update a few days earlier.

    This problem persists in the Mode of Firefox safe and apparently appears randomly any plugins/extensions I can I have installed/enabled.

    I am at a complete loss here and would appreciate any help because this drop in the address bar is one of my favorite features in any browser, and it becomes annoying to have to reinstall the plugins more (when I use the Sync feature to reinstall the plugins, the problem is even worse).

    For problems with the file places.sqlite (bookmarks, historical) database, you can check in the Firefox profile folder.

    If the extension of Maintenance of places cannot repair the database places.sqlite file remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to rebuild the database places.sqlite latest JSON Firefox backup in the folder bookmarkbackups.

  • Firefox won't let me type in a Web page - including this one - quarter to constantly address bar

    I use Firefox 41.0.1, and on each page web, I have to click on the box, I'm trying to fill in - after each letter - type.

    For example, I go to Yahoo to connect to my email and type in my email address, as the cursor moves to the top address bar after each letter? He has very recently begun this, and I really need a solution please.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    You have also two versions of Shockwave Flash - groin should be deleted.

    This can be useful - disable or remove modules.
