  • Why several download windows pop up when I download a PDF file or other file?

    Whenever I try to download a file (PDF, JPG, DOC), which was attached to an email (I use Outlook WebMail) the document will download very well HOWEVER eight (8!) or more to download windows pop up as if I tried to download that file eight times (or more).

    So I 'X' by each window after downloading a file. This is the same file on each pop-up window.

    Since it is a new problem, I tried to turn off the computer and put back in operation but failed.

    Firefox 26.0

    Any help... PLEASE, I BEG YOU!

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

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

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • I want to get rid of notification downloads. I won't use Firefox if I can't get rid of the pesky "downloads notification window" popping up all the time. What a pain in the browser!

    The 'notification of downloads window' keeps popping up. I have no use for it either. If I can't get rid of it, I will stop using Firefox as my browser.

    Hi hkivhk,

    Ask yourself if you can disable the downloads window? It's actually pretty easy. Just go to Tools > Options > general. If you have the Firefox menu, simply press Alt to temporarily activate the menu bar.

    You can find more information in the following article Starter , homepage, tabs and download settings.

    Hope this helps!

  • My google toolbar does not respond and when I open tools > Add-ons, a window pops up saying script is unresponsive, which is followed by firefox crashing

    When I try a search using my google toolbar it stops responding and when I open tools > Addons, a window pops up saying script is unresponsive, which is followed by firefox crashing. How can I fix it?

    It is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.

    If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please be afraid not to follow my instructions to the line, as everything can be easily undone.

  • I have a window pop up on my computer all the time called "debug".

    I ran all the virus checking options available on the security of Microsofts site and I keep the Microsoft Security Essentials on all the time - I even uninstalled and reinstalled to double check but nothing takes away the "Debug" window

    Does anyone know what is causing the "debug" window pop up and how can I stop from occurring?

    Thank you very much

    DW

    Hi Donna,.

    We will see if it is caused by something starting at startup or with some drivers.

    Try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

    Start in safe mode with network and see if the problem is here.  A result allows us to narrow down the search for the cause.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games

    SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games.

    When on the windows desktop, he will have the disabled windows key and a small box will popup in the lower right corner, saying he is.
    But if I press it, then in a game (fullscreen), it will be the game tab down, put me to what is "beneath" and open the start menu.
    I tried both Intellitype 8.2 and the latest Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center but they both react in the same way.
    The Bank or the profile is set to number 2 (game) and of course, the windows key is disabled in the settings. Even if I turn it off on THE 3 banks it'll always exhibit the same behavior.
    I tried to implement the individual profiles for the games that I play as well but no luck there either. And re - install the drivers does not help.
    It completely defeats the purpose of this feature. Ideally, she would work on the other hand, being active only in an office environment and disabled in games/full screen applications, but it should at least work as announced, following the rules laid down by the Bank or the current profile.
    In addition, the auto feature does not work with these games or the other and some applications as well. Am I alone in having these problems? I'm ready to completely reinstall windows because it's *.
    Any help/ideas please?
