My arrows don't work in Firefox. I can't use them to scroll a page.
Somehow, I pressed a key combination on my keyboard which now always puts a cursor in my Internet browser page content. And now when I try to use my arrow keys on the keyboard to scroll to the bottom of e-mail, content, etc., it jumps to the top of the page instead of scrolling. How can I fix?
Yes, this is called "keyboard navigation" and you can disable it on the page of preferences here:
- Mac, either:
- button '3-bar' menu > Preferences > advanced > general mini-onglet
- Firefox menu > Preferences > advanced > general mini-onglet
- Windows, either:
- button '3-bar' menu > Options > advanced > general mini-onglet
- Tools menu > Options > advanced > general mini-onglet
Uncheck "always use the cursor keys to navigate through the pages."
Success?

Have updates you installed?
You can check the KB number for the update in the update history:
1. Click Start, click all programs, and then click Windows Update or Microsoft Update.
2. on the Windows Update Web site or the Microsoft Update Web site, click on view update history.Step 1: Unplug the power cable, the keyboard and mouse and then reconnect it back. Now, check if you're able to boot in safe mode (by using the arrow keys) or normal mode. Send back the same.

I created signatures and look OK in preferences, but I can't use them. It worked once, but I don't know how or why. I don't get all the dialog boxes.
Thank you. I read the article you quoted, as well as others, several
times. Creation has been problem free.
My problem is that AID has never said, that I could find, HELP or
TIP to search for a tool called certificates. I searched,
Signatures, Signatures Digital and many others but they lead no where.
I think that HELP need HELP.

On my desk top and down arrows don't work, they don't work when plugged into my laptop.
I uninstalled Firefox, deleted the folder of Win XP and personalized re-installed (request for information may not be transferred). To my surprise, my favorites were not gone. . Nor had the problem. The up & down arrows will work on Internet Explorer (which I use rarely).
How can I remove totally Firefox before a clean reinstall as a first step to solve the problem?Try to hit F7 and see if it changes the action of these arrows.

I tried the recommended two solutions to replace but none works. Firefox was slowly turning last night so I decided to update it. Did not help. Downloaded again, but now can't access it at all. I'm on a Mac using 10.9.5.
If he has problems with the update or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a fresh install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the file to disk on the desktop image
- Firefox 41.0.1: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
- Basket of the current application of Firefox (open the Applications folder in Finder and drag the Firefox application to the trash) to do a cleanup (re) install
- Install the new version you downloaded
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose personal data as favorites when you uninstall and (re) install or update Firefox.

I am on Windows 7 eternity / I've updated to Firefox 6, since then I couldn't use the front and rear, that it is not not a page Web address appears on the bar, these two problems are on the navigation bar, and both worked fine before the update. I've since updated to Firefox 6.0.2, but problems remain. It's very frustrating, I tried to find an answer to this, but nothing helped. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but no change, I tried to go back to an earlier version, but no change, right now with Firefox 6.0.2 but no change. I also have a computer with Windows XP, with the same version of Firefox, but it works OK
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

I have an old Mac Mini with a DVI Port that came with a VGA DVI-adapter. Tonight, my monitor went down. Brand new monitor works with that? Any recommendations? Can I use an adapter? If yes should which adapter I?
You can use any DVI monitor DVI port directly or have any VGA monitor with the power that you adapter. A HDMI monitor might work with an adapter DVI to HDMI in a pinch, but HDMI tends to be more fickle.

the arrow buttons, page up/down buttons don't work in firefox 9 despite the function F7
tried different settings in options/general. also tried on: config accessibility.warn_on_browsewithcaret without success.
you provide the correct settings?
Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.
See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

Search engines don't work on Firefox 15
I recently installed 15 FF FF 13 and when I got it done, search engine at the top right corner disappeared. I clicked on the arrow down and there were no left search engines. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox at least 3 times and nothing has changed. I tried to create another profile, delete the "sqlite" of my file, checked for malware and update my plugins, but nothing has worked. I don't know what else to try to solve this problem. I would gladly of help on how to solve this problem.
Try to reinstall Firefox to restore default search engines and download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.
You may need to delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer, if you keep problems with the disappearance of the search engines
Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
