Insensitive window of Firefox, firefox itself continues to work.

Since a few days, I've been running on an issue where firefox will sort of hang on. Everything in the browser works normally, I am able to navigate the Web and all my addons will still work, however I am unable to drag, minimize, maximize or do something about putting in place of actual windows on my computer screen, without using the charm bar 8 windows, which only allows me to minimize.

Minimization and maximization later that I am granted a few seconds window where the bar will resume responsiveness and I'm able to drag the window accordingly. Time, however, it is short-lived.

I scanned my computer for viruses found no and have even restarted firefox mode without failure; Start safe mode doesn't seem only to exacerbate the problem under my window for a few seconds to get my browser to a size and a place that I would like all but disappears.

Computer restarted, it is a problem with the secure Windows operating system to 100%. Will reopen if discovered tickets otherwise.

  • Can not see clearly the content of the area from the top of the window of Firefox (Mac) because of the colorful background. How to make it solid (gray, for example)

    On my desktop Mac, the edges of window and the border are gray.

I have a very hard time to see the superior information because of this. I want a background gray (or white) standard.

  • Uncloseable pop-up windows in firefox for mac

    Hello

    Some Web sites will open the pop-up windows, even if I have a pop-up blocker enabled.

    The problem with these pop-up windows, it is that they have the option close as for other windows of Firefox for Mac.

    This results in the ToolTip remains open and the only way I can get rid of it is to stop completely from Firefox.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hello

    Maybe you could try the keyboard shortcut command + W (close the current tab) or command + SHIFT + W (close the current window) when the pop-up window appears in the foreground.

  • Shortcut Ctrl C does not work in the main window of Firefox

    I use Firefox version 38.0.5, Windows 7
    Since the update Ctrl + C shortcut does not work in the main window of Firefox. (I can't copy text from any website using Ctrl + C).

    Click right and using the copy in the menu works perfectly. CTRL V and Ctrl X work fine without problem.

    Ctrl C works fine when copying text from the address bar and search bar, I just can't copy anything from anything in the main window of firefox.
    

    I tried to run Firefox in safe mode, I have also reset firefox and a virus scanner, but nothing has solved the problem.

    If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great. Thank you

  • 8.1 for Windows and Firefox 36.0.1 the text in the forms box has no carriage return. Earlier versions, as forms of work. Is there any solution for this?

    Before this version of Firefox 36.0.1, the < textarea > HTML worked in my forms. View Cart returns. In the version of 36.0.1 that they no longer work correctly. However, when I enter a carriage return, it displays a space instead of a line break. I went to test basic textarea
    < textarea > name = cols 'comments' = 20 rows = 10 < / textarea >
    to make sure that I was not introducing anything with other languages.
    I use Windows Pro 8.1. I drove back to 35.0 Firefox and everything works fine. I installed 36.0.1 and it stops working.

I'm suspicious because I started to notice this immediately after a windows update last night. The laptop also known issues that he immediately after a windows update last night.
    I still have another computer running a different version of windows and Firefox and it works very well. It seems that the issue is where there are windows Pro 8.1 and Firefox 36.0.1.
    Guys do you have an idea what is happening here?
    Thank you

    The current version supports the white-space for a text box property and it is possible that the Web site uses spaces: pre instead of spaces: pre wrap.
    The former will prevent Firefox of text wrapping.

    You can check that out in the Inspector via the context menu.

    See:

    The white-space property is currently working on HTML < textarea > (bug 82711) elements.

  • How can I change the color of the fonts displayed on Firefox itself?

    Not Web sites; I know how to change the font style and color used on Web sites. What I was asking is how to change the color of the font of the text displayed on the interface of Firefox itself. Specifically, I want to change the font of the text '100% ' at the top of the Zoom option, since I have no idea when or how it changed (could be me; I do remember never do, however); I have attached a screenshot for better reference.

    I was wondering, but did not before, if it remains green if you move to another bar. In other words, is there something special about this area of bar bar/menu top of the title page which affects the color of the font.

  • I get a JavaScript Application error: "setTimeout" called on an object that does not implement the interface Window for Firefox.

    I get a pop up box with the message: Application JavaScript error: "setTimeout" called on an object that does not implement the interface Window for Firefox.

    But it seems to appear when I go to Amazon.com. Then he opens with this message and the OK option? But as fast as I can click OK, another box appears. After all a half dozen, she disappears - until what I move to another part of Amazon! I uninstalled - reinstalled and then - Firefox and BA. I do not understand this!

    (And of course, there is always the possibility that it is not only attacking me on Amazon... There may be a lot of other sites that also trigger, and I just haven't been there yet.)

    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 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 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.

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

    Such a download is usually recorded in a updates or updates folder in the program folder or the Firefox application.
