Copy / paste no longer works in firefox. Does not work in SafeMode either.

I wonder what I can do to solve this problem. In most cases, I can point out one thing and select copy from the context menu, but when I try to paste nothing happens, and if I try to paste again copy them / paste are grayed out. I thought maybe it was an add on bringing so I ran FF in safe mode and still does. It could be something with my profile? I never had problems of profile before Mozilla started to update the browser in this fast paced. Originally, when FF 4 came out, I had a corruption of profiles in this version so I returned to 3. If this fast paced schedule of releases will only constantly corrupt my profile, I'm going back to version 3, or simply switch to a different browser altogether. I do not wish to exchange stability for innovation. Before the young to PACE releases calendar, FF has been like a rock. Now, it seems to be more trouble that it's worth. I could be just jump to conclusions, but I had no such problems at the time where he received no news that quickly. I've already replaced FF on my android because it did not work well, but since I used it on my pc this long, I've been more than patient that newer versions could be large over time, but it seems to be one thing after the other who has problems. Basically, I'm tired of having to try to resolve the problems with this browser that should not and would not exist if it wasn't for the speed of innovation. It should work in its final version, but more than not, he has some issues. Firefox is certainly not the browser, that it once was, and as I am greatly disappointed in its latest versions since version 3. Basically, FF will have to be more stable to keep me as a desktop user. I already wrote it on my android device. In any case, sorry for the rant, but I really hope that my problem is easy to solve and I hope that something I forgot. Thanks for your time, one that meets this.

After more digging deeper, I found that this problem occurred in other things as well, but seems to be worse in FF for some reason any. With other things as if we were trying to copy and paste in windows or IE Explorer, sometimes it work and sometimes it wouldn't. After that scrubbing windows supports the forums and by sticking to a few suggestions, most people seem to think it could be a malware or a virus. I scanned the system with multiple programs and found nothing. In all my efforts, I was not able to determine why this was happening. I wanted no pictures of system previously and just copy / paste to work again, so I backed up my data and did a new install of Windows 7. So far, everything is back to normal now. I just wish I knew for what has caused this to happen. At this point, I don't think that Firefox was to blame in my case. It was my bad to assume that caused Firefox because it is the first place I've seen that happen and I spend more time than other things on my pc using FF.

  • copy / paste no longer works in photoshop CC

    I've been using Photoshop CC since March and this is a new issue. Was not a problem until today.

    When I select and area to copy from a photo in JPEG or photoshop PSD and make a new file paste it in, the new file is the same size as the Clipboard content, as we hear too, but photoshop is more will let me paste. The selection CHANGE, dough is still there in black, not greyed out. I fixed it temporarily by restarting my computer and it worked until I closed Photoshop again and reopened, problem is back... What is happening?

    Is it to do with preferences and how to change their resolution to this problem?

    the only thing I changed recently said use photoshop as the default program to open JPEG files in my computer. I've changed that because the bridge was no longer photoshop showing as an option when you right click an image and choose which file to use to open it. The fix was to close the bridge, chose a jpeg image and changes the default value of photoshop to open it.

    I am running windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.

    all help gratefully received...

    Thank you again once, I managed to remove preferences using your method above. but once again, copy and paste using PSD files that are still not resolved.

    Copy / paste works for PNG GIFF JPEG files but not for the PSD

    __________________________________________________________

    OK thanks to Curt Y, I suggest that the solution is to first preferences, then the purge.

    I returned and purged the Clipboard after reset preferences and it now seems to be fixed.

    Thank you

  • I said that I have to install Chrome to place an order at Walmart. What should the Chrome that Firefox does not work?

    I have placed several orders of Wal-Mart before today using Firefox without any problems. But today, nothing but problems. I tried for more than 4 hours, get this order to cross. I told cat line of Walmart and told me that I have to install Chrome to place an order. They don't answer when I asked if Walmart belonging to Chrome.

    I deleted the cookies and cache and restarted but none of this has worked. While Chrome has that Firefox does not work? I tried Chrome before and he hated and had a devil of a time he get off my computer. I don't want to go there again.

    I have attached a copy of the message that I get seems to indicate that it is a problem within Wal-Mart, but I said that it was with my browser.

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and using Firefox 40.0.3.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Thanks for your reply. I just figured out the problem.

    All started when I tried to pay my order at 13:00 this afternoon. I am persistent and don't give up easily. Five hours later, I found an error in their programming, which allowed me to add an item to my shopping cart that was a purchase in store only. But then when I went to pay for it, he became confused and wouldn't let me order but didn't tell me why.

    I solved by moving all items in the basket to saved for later and then add one at a time, trying to get to the car after each addition. It took a while because there are 20 items. He had the same problem when I added the item in the store to the cart and tried to pay for it. So I deleted and purchased on Ebay.

    Now I know probably as much if not more than any of their populations of the Chat line that can only be read on a book script.

    It's a relief that I don't have to use Chrome. I really like Firefox and would not change.

  • Flash for firefox does not work

    I checked my computer and it says that flash works but when I go to play games I can't because msg says I need Flash. I've always been able to play the same games before now I can't. all parameters have remained the same, why is today different?

    When you are on the site where the game does not load, do you see a notification icon in the address bar?

    Notification plugin icon looks like a small Lego block, usually dark gray. If you click on it, it should tell you if the Flash is allowed for the page or if you need to.

    If the icon does not appear, Firefox does not recognize the code in the page. If it appears, and Flash is allowed, then the page may have a difficult time in commissioning.

    There is a problem with some Flash games does not not in Firefox 40. To see if the game you are playing is affected by this issue (asynchronous loading), you can try this modification of the parameters:

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

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the IPC and pause while the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference dom.ipc.plugins.asyncInit to change its value from true to false

    I don't know which begins to take effect immediately, or if you leave Firefox and start it again.

    Return to the page with the game, then reload the page (you can click on the circular arrow in the address bar) to see if it will work now.

    A little luck?

    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 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.

    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.

    Firefox cannot renew its tabs and now won't run and let me do a backup

    This may be considered to be solve my problem.
    I decided to uninstall the rogue program Firefox download and reinstall the same version (No. 8). I used Windows XP Add Remove programs who asked if I wanted to save the settings of Firefox until I uninstalled Firefox. I said yes and operated with the uninstall. I couldn't find a Firefox 8 so I went for the 12 version and installed on the laptop. This version 12 now works with all the passwords one favorite of the uninstalled 8.
