drop-down boxes will not open

I use an ASUS laptop with windows 8.  Problem, all started yesterday.  On any Web site I can get that uses drop-down boxes to enter information selections didn't remain open.  The selections of flash upward, but disappear quickly.  I tried to restart, but no luck.

I downloaded windows 8.1 and it corrects the problem.  I suspect it's an 8.0 update that caused the problem.

  • categories of content drop-down list will not open

    I'm new to RoboHelp so bear with me: first of all, I don't see how to search for FAQ short Ctrl-F on the current page. Second, with a trial CD of RoboHelp HTML 10 installation in a generated WebHelp layout that the content of the menu categories drop down will not open to allow the user to select the second category / default.

    Hello again from Leslie

    Just watch the video. Thank you

    I wonder if this may be the associated browser. I noticed that you use Microsoft Internet Explorer. But I can't tell what version. Even though it seems pretty new. (Personally, I'm a Firefox user)

    You have installed Firefox? If so, have you tried the output in Firefox? Note that I'm not encourage you to spend, only I was wondering if you could try out of Firefox to see if you get different behavior.

    Also, I am aware that things * SHOULD * work by using the mouse, but another thing, you could try would be to focus the drop with the mouse, and then press the arrow key down and see if you can select the second category in this way.

    In regards to things not found in the search, this is the expected behavior. When you use content categories, you create as much of different outputs of WebHelp as you defined categories. When you are in the category of the East where you excluded the content of the West, it is quite reasonable that you can't find everything related to the West, when you perform a search. Once you manage to get the menu drop-down allows you to change the category of the West, the search will probably fail to East of information (assuming that you have a build expression and a label exclusion information from the East).

  • Installed Firefox 17.0.1. Drop-down lists does not open now (like the drop-down list Twitter connection).

    Installed Firefox 17.0.1.

    Drop-down lists will not open now - for example, Twitter login drop-down list (so cannot connect to Twitter). Drop-down lists has worked for all the previous versions of Firefox.

    Its happens very rarely...

  • Drop-down menus does not open. Click right box will not appear.

    Hello!

    Yesterday, I was working on the Wix site. I noticed that when I tried to do a right click to copy and paste text box never showed up. I realized then, on other sites, in the drop down menus would not open (as the ones where you select your State, etc.). I can't turn on the bar menu at the top of Firefox with the ALT key, but when I click Tools or anything else, the box does not fall down. Same thing for my bookmarks and menu of frequently used buttons. My right click works fine when I'm not online. I really like to use Firefox and hope that there is a better solution than to switch to a different browser. I use Firefox at work and it's there.

    Please let me know if you need more information.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

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

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode 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 issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow 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.

  • In Thunderbird/Tools/Options/Composition/spelling, language drop-down-box is not available, and the language line is empty.

    The drop-down-box languages chose is display of pale color that this option is not available. Clicking on it does nothing. In addition, no language appears in the language line. Not being able to use the drop-down-box fact by following the instructions for the installation of a dictionary that is impossible.

    I installed the dictionaries in Firefox, but they do not appear in Thunderbird.

    Here, I am very confused.

    You say "I installed the dictionary in Firefox, but they do not appear in Thunderbird. They should not... they are two different applications. Your last response still puzzles me.

    "I downloaded the dictionaries, but they do not appear in"Download more dictionaries"that takes a link you to a web page list of dictionaries available for Thunderbird." So I simply do not understand what your expect to see, maybe something you have downloaded in a browser window? I really don't understand.

    Some dictionaries come in the form of modules https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/search/?q=dictionary & appver = 31.0 & platform = windows and must be installed as such.

  • When I'm on Facebook and playing Fish World, send gifts no longer works, the drop-down list does not open enough to see the button 'send '. This works in other games, but not in the world of fish, and I contacted global fish who said it was a browser issu

    starting yesterday I can't decline to the bottom of the box open to send gifts to my friends. Fish world told me a few weeks ago, it was because of some updates on Facebook, but now that has been set and I can't get the inFB game to work. It works with other browsers - Chrome and IE9. Is there something I have to do on my end to fix this? Other facebook games works perfectly with drop-down boxes, it is only in fish world.

  • drop-down menus are not open

    Any program that uses the menu drop-down menus in the program such as outlook will allow not her drown to the bottom of the window to stay open enough long to allow you mouse and choose anything from the drop down. When a window pops up which is happening in a program that any movement with the mouse will make up the pop are also behind the window of the program cause you to minimize all windows to find the context menu.  I should mention that not all drop down have this problem. the bottom of the main fall to the Ribbon do not have the problem.

    Hello

    You did changes to the computer before the show?

    Method 1
    I suggest you perform the clean boot and check if the problem persists. Clean boot will disable all of the third-party program to see if any third-party program is causing the problem. When you perform the clean boot make sure that you also disable all antivirus and firewalls on the computer.

    Note: Follow step 7 clean boot KB929135 article to reset the computer in normal mode.

    Method 2
    The issue could be due to a virus on the computer. I suggest you run virus scan online by using the Microsoft safety scanner.

    Note: when you do an antivirus online, you will lose data that are affected by the virus. Microsoft is not responsible for the loss of this data.

  • Models drop down box does not display correctly

    Untitled-1.jpg

    Everytime I open the tool of bosses to try a selection a new schema from the drop-down list is just a small chip rather than a box where I can see the templates that are available. I tried to click on the different display modes (large list of thumbnails, etc) and nothing changes the size of this drop-down list box. It's just a little drop, where I can barely tell who is who. Anyone have an idea how I can fix this? I tried to uninstall and reinstall the program and nothing works. Pleas help!

  • Adding a contact to the database and the drop-down box does not list the provinces

    Hey everybody,

    Was wondering if you ever came across this... we have someone who is to manually enter a contact and got to the State or the Province drop down.  There is no province listed in there... everyone has added provinces?  How did you handle this.  Looks like an easy question, but found nothing on this subject...

    Thank you!

    Thanks Chris... put up a deal and they said the same thing... Thank you!... by support

    Currently, the State or Province in your default Contact point of view is mapped to the Contact status field.

    As per the attached screenshot, the Contact of State field using values from the selection of Siebel billing US State list.

    So that you can either change the selection list of Siebel of billing to one of:

    State or Province

    State or Province - 19/07/2010 14:18:28

    State or Province - 2010-08-18 14:29:07

    You should go and confirm these select lists have the correct value, or you can change to Siebel billing list to include the provinces.

    You can access lists of selection to evaluate-> data tools-> of installation-> Setup data-> select manage lists.
