bar menus and apple icon frozen when Firefox has focus on mac

For some reason any when I start firefox now and give it focus on my macbook the menu bar does not respond. None of the items in menu firefox opens, and the apple icon is even frozen. Firefox worked, and I'm not sure what I could have changed to make this arise problem. Unfortunately, I can't change the settings of firefox, because I can't pull down of items of menu o FLE. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but no change. Help!

Try uninstalling (trash) and reinstalling Firefox.

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

  • Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
  • Install the new version you downloaded

Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.

Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:

If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • Creative cloud - bar menus and palette are the tiny fonts.

    I just downloaded creative cloud on my lenovo Yoga Pro 2.  The size of my bar menus and Palette are the tiny fonts.  However, the MenuBar of Lightroom and palette are in an easy to read normal size fonts.  Can someone tell me how to change just Photoshop?

    Because now the solution seems to use 200% scale setting in Edit > Preferences > experimental features.

    There is also a setting to edit > Preferences > Interface > UI font size that expands some of the fonts, although not the menu bar.

    After changing a setting, you must restart photoshop to see the changes.

  • Why is the size of the text in my bars, menus and small office?

    This morning when I turned on my computer, the size of my text was tiny! When I say this, I don't want the text in internet explorer, because it's normal size, but I mean the text on the inside the tabs, the text on the bar Favorites and the other eveyr menu, the text of the name in the actual window and in my address bar. In addition, the text on my desktop (the words under the desktop icons) is tiny as well. Even the words on my Start menu are tiny.

    It's weird because everything in my browser and other programs are normal size. I tried to adjust the resolution and goes to personalization > display > and change the dpi and will just 'small', 'medium', but which explodes everything on my screen. I fear, I may have some sort of virus or something that is causing... Anyone know the cause of this?

    (PS. When I say that, I'm not talking SMS language in the browser, i.e. controlling and a magnification of DO NOT solve my problem)

    I think this may be the case. But anyway, I tried to use a restore of the system for a week back and fortunately it worked. All my fonts are back to normal size, but I still don't know exactly what the problem was. But I'm just glad it's resolved. Thanks Gerry!

  • When Firefox has been updated automatically, it deleted my yahoo toolbar and I cannot reinstall it.

    When Firefox is automatically updated to 29, he deleted my yahoo toolbar and I cannot reinstall it. I go through the motions of the installation of the toolbar, and when I restart Firefox, the toolbar is there for a split second and then is removed from the display. I have since withdrawn from the Firefox's automatic update feature and update only if I deem it necessary and non-destructive. In the past, your software has also removed the Add on Social Fixer. I am aware that Facebook likes to not Fixer Social. Mozilla should remain neutral. You shouldn't Facebook dirty work for them. I can do without Facebook and I can also do it without Firefox.

    Hello

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Uninstaller or the use of Firefox and not run a third remover as part of this process, because who could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. These can be recovered, unless they have been backed up on an external device!

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

    Thank you.

  • Red Apple icon shown when loading the software containing the two Vista and Apple software - does not recognize Windows

    I recently bought 2 bits of software that contain the Apple and Microsoft (Vista) versions on one CD.  When I insert the CD into my Vista PC, it can not find or load the installation files.  Instead, if I look at what is on the drive, I see an icon of the Red Apple.  If I put the same CD on Vista PC to my wife, it loads correctly.  If I load the version of WIndows 7 software, it loads correctly and run the program until he acknowledges that the operating system is Vista not Windows 7.  Something triggered something on my Vista PC to do brand new loading on my CD player program needs to ignore files in vista and show files apple as if they were independent.  Is there a toggle for this problem?  If I run the software of Microsoft ' Fix It' - the solution that I see on most boards, it does not.  As far as I know, other Vista users are facing this problem without solution by MIcrosoft or any other tech tips.

    The problem is with a program from Mediafour.  It's called xplay 3.  If you uninstall this program, everything works fine.

  • Shockwave Flash says Firefox is vulnerable and requires the update when it has been updated.

    After opening a page, Firefox gave a warning that "Shockwave Flash is vulnerable and needs to be updated". I went to get.adobe.com and updated to 17.0.0.169, but the warning was repeated and the blocked content. I checked youtube, which would play music and videos tutorial DIY of two tests without any problem, but still repeat the warning of block. I checked the Addons Manager, who said that he had to update Flash, but when I checked adobe it said I had the latest update. Manager of Addons for Flash, "always enable" under dimmed, the option 'request to activate' selected but grayed out when I clicked on the menu drop-down button, and the option "never activate" standard black text.

  • I was using Firefox for some time this morning when Firefox has suddenly shown "not responding".

    Now, he opens with "not responding". I can open it in safe mode but nothing works. The button "restore" & "start new session" does not work. It does not connect to any web site. I had a lot of tabs open when it crashed. There is no crash report (latest is 6 weeks ago).

    If this does not work in mode without failure, then disable all extensions and then try to find out who is the cause by allowing both the problem reappears.

    • Choose "Disable all add-ons" on issues to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode to set window to disable all extensions.
    • Close and restart Firefox after each change through "file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave";) Linux: "file > exit ')
