Firefox display distorted with 10.8.2 Mac and FF 15.0.1
I recently updated my OS from S.L. to M.L. (10.8.2) and making my firefox 15.0.1 does not allow me to expand the size of the window of my browser on my iMac 27' much more then a window about 8 "x 8" or all becomes distorted and I can no longer in all type fields or modify one of my tabs. " If I reduce my window down so I can restore my tabs of the browser control. I disabled all extensions and ad - ons, reset my browser size (cmd + 0) and have "reset" of my firefox so much that blown out and reinstalled several times FF. I can navigate fine using chrome and safari, ff just will not work because I need to?
Here is my report of details of the browser:

Thanks Cor - el! The problem was hardware acceleration! I disabled and it works fine. I look for updates to the graphics card and if that does not fix problem I'll just leave it out until that other OS and or updates that come out of Firefox can help solve the problem!

Now, they have turned my account in base saying that my IE9 is no longer supported and they are "" forcing me to download Firefox otherwise I have to continue with basic messaging.

Firefox is compatible with windows 7 for home and studens?
As far as I know, Firefox runs on all variants of Windows 7. Firefox works better with a lot of memory, so if your system has 2 GB of memory, you may be limited in the number of windows and tabs you can open simultaneously before things get bogged down compared to a system that has 4 GB of memory.
If I download firefox it will affect all the files I have on my computer? Will this affect my windows mail?
As a web browser, you can configure Firefox to your default program to open web pages and links. If you do this, while some icons may change, for example, links to web pages can change to an icon of Firefox. In addition, Firefox has a built-in PDF reader, but you can still use Adobe Reader or another program to read PDF files if you want.
Are you using Windows Live Mail or another standalone program to retrieve messages? Firefox be involved with it because these programs to get the mail directly, not not using your browser. But if you make Firefox your default for links Manager, when you click on a link in the e-mail software, it will open in Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.
Other things:
(1) attention to the download links at random in search engine results. You can get Firefox here (scroll to your preferred language):
https://www.Mozilla.org/Firefox/all/
(2) I'm sure after Firefox is started the first time, you will have many questions. The program should give you a little tour of routine, and you can use our support articles for more information: https://support.mozilla.org/products/firefox
(3) you must install IE11 because there are still a few sites that use patented technologies and are not displayed in Firefox, such as Windows update

Hello.
Thanks for getting back to me... You're right, I missed the bit where you drag the icon on the screen that opens. It is not clear that you should do this. I was dragging the dmg from the desktop file in my Apps folder that was the mistake. All good now and Firefox works well. Thank you

Display problems with PS 2014.2.2 and iMac
I use a Nikon D 800 shooting Raw. I load the files in Camera Raw and Photoshop. Only with the latest version of Photoshop Creative Cloud, I have problems. There are large squares white or black in the display of images in Photoshop. Expansion or shirnking image sometimes take them off, but not always. The only thing that works is completely close Photoshop and restart it. And after some time, the problem will reoccur.
I use this iMac with Photoshop PS 5 and everything also and never had a problem before display.
I'm waiting for an upgrade to fix this, but there was none.
Make sure you run the latest version of your Mac operating system. Take a look at this thread as well: large squares white or black in my pic on screen

Display problems with all types of terrain and graphic
Hello
I have display problems general with all types of chart, graph or plot that I try to use, on two different machines, both with NVIDIA graphics cards. A machine is a MacBook under XP SP2 in bootcamp and the other a Dell T3400 workstation (or something similar) under XP SP3.
I posted this thread earlier which Ben replies to the weird graphic behavior. Ben suggested that I try to simplify my code as much as possible while keeping the bad behavior and by submitting to the NC and the forum, because it is others have had problems of graph. I tried, but in vain. Display problem continues and continues and continues and then they just go and I can't get back by unscrewing the last stage of reduction or simplification of code. But at some point during the reconstruction of the code, which I cannot determine, returns the bad behavior.
So, I was set up with graphics looking for shit, until recently, when I thought I'd try some suggestions of other messages to a XY-plot function as a graph by creating a buffer and using nodes of ownership of land for the range control. Things seemed promising, until my "XY table" started getting shit, too. This time, the issue was with the grid lines becomes all chopped, attached images.
I am out of resources here. I think I'm running out of options to display graphic data in an acceptable manner. Do I have to display data by using an Excel chart in an ActiveX container in Labview? I'm not skilled enough to do it again. I like Labview, it is the only programming language that I am competent even remotely help, but it's just inferiorating.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks for reading.
-Greg
Greg,
is there a particular reason why you use the bar plots - view superior graphic style? Try activating the legend of the plot, go to the bar plots and select the first track of the Bar Style. Your chart is displayed very well after that.
See you soon,.

Display bug with Tuner TV Toshiba, MCE and WinDVD Creator 2 for Toshiba
Hello, I discovered a bug that has been troubling for a long time.
When I watch TV in MCE, the image is a little tense and off-center to the right, which means that I do not see the right side of the screen.When I reinstall the TV Tuner driver, version 1.2.0.6, it corrects the problem, and the image is full screen and perfectly centered in Media Center.
So I spent some time trying to find what was causing the centered and stretched image bug and it seems that it is created by 'WinDVD Creator 2 for Toshiba' which has been packaged with my Qosmio.
I tracked the problem to be a parameter in the registry to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE es\ttv200x\Parameters
The "VideoRes", which is set to '0' by the TV tuner driver, is set to '4' after WinDVD Creator 2 for Toshiba is used and from that moment, the bug is visible in MCE.I've found a workaround with the parameter 'VideoRes' return '0' and restart the computer, then the screen is OK once again in MCE.
If for some reason, WinDVD Creator 2 makes this change automatically in the registry of TV tuner setting.
Can Toshiba releasing a patch for WinDVD Creator 2 fix the problem?
I think it's affecting all the owners of Qosmio with TV tuner.
Thank you for your support.
Alcahest
Hello
WinDVD Creator 2 is designed by Intervideo, not Toshiba.
But like you said that the new version of driver has solved this problem.
Nevertheless thanks for your posting. It s very useful.Good bye

Why Firefox displays no more .php suffix web pages which are in my Mac?
I have a question about Firefox 14.0.1 display web page suffix .php files that are in a Mac running OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. In versions of Mac OS, for example 10.4.7, hospital I could see files of web page correctly displayed with .html and .php suffixes when these web page files were in my computer. I am referring to the page appears as it should display properly, you see is not the source code. If a page has a .php suffix, the browser displays the page correctly although all php scripts that are embedded in this page have been ignored.
Occasionallly Apple updated its browsers makers occasionally to update the operating system and browser. One day, I noticed that Safari is no longer displayed webpage in my Mac files if these pages have a .php suffix. However, Firefox and other browsers have continued to display the web page with suffixes .php files embedded php scripts have been ignored.
Now I Mountain Lion in the iMac.
I see no longer web page of suffix .php files in my regarless of the computer of the browser I use. No browser shows pages.
A web page of suffix .php file that Firefox and other browsers appear in 10.4.7 does not 10.8 display if this web page file is located in the computer.
In my computer, I have html and php web page suffix files I want to see a browser. The files that I want to see and the browser, both are in my computer. Html files display perfectly with one exception: If the php scripts are embedded in html files, scripts are ignored. A file name that ends with ".php" will not be displayed little matter that there's a php script in the file. Safari displays the source code only. Chrome does not display the file. Firefox and SeaMonkey, which now displays web page of suffix .php files in earlier versions of the Mac OSm meet these pages by providing a dialog box that seems to assume that the file is about to be downloaded on the Internet. The dialog box wonder if I want to use the browser to open the file, or if I want to record on the disc. The file on the disc is at the same time, and the computer is disconnected from the Internet. I click I want to use the browser to open the file. Then the dialong box opens again the same question. This happens again and again. I never get to see a web page file in my computer whose name ends with ".php". With Firefox 14.0.1, I can see .php suffix of webpages on the Internet or in a Mac 10.4.7 but not in a Mac 10.8. I don't have Firefox miconfigure? It seems unlikely that Firefox has lost the ability to display pages in Mac OS 10.8 that appears in ' 10.4.7. How can I solve this problem of displaying web page?
Thank you for your quick response, Ideato. Now, I think that the problem is not a browser issue but a Mac. Although Mac OS 10.8 is much better than 10.4.7 generally, it's worse for the .php suffix file display. There is an online article which solved my problem: "how to enable and configure Apache / PHP support for OS x 10.8 Mountain Lion." July 29, 2012; by Henry Haneez. There are two solutions that Haroon mentions. One is to download and install the latest php, which comes with a web server. The other, which is easier and Haroon explains in detail, is to turn on the server web apache in Cougar and allow the loading of the php module that comes with the Mountain Lion. This module is not as recent just latest whoich of php from php.net.

I've just updated to Sierra. Since the upgrade did several reboots. When I discover an app the side also shows "4 +" or similar and I click on the note to view reviews and ratings of customer, a blank screen appears. Everyone knows this or have a way to solve this problem?

I stopped using Firefox as nothing I've done has corrected this problem. I tried to close Firefox and restart it, I erased all my Add-ons and then added adblock back (it's the only one), but it still does not work. I deleted files so that I have more space - I can't think of anything that works. I talked to four of my friends with Macs and they are all having the same problem with Firefox since the Mavericks.
Cursor disappears huh? It's quite strange. All of the compatibility of the Mavericks can be followed in [Bug 883824]
Try this work around:
- Go to Firefox > Preferences > advanced > general
- Always check "use the cursor keys to navigate through the pages.
- Press OK.
Or try the Mac preferences noted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23542890#24471966
