  • Opening of session of Sierra produced several pop-up windows

    Since the upgrade to Sierra a series of pop-up windows appears right after the desktop appears.  One is a settings dialog box "analysis of the PC" apparently linked to the Canon MX920 we use, even if the printer/Scanner sharing is disabled in system preferences.

    A second pop-up window is an error Java SDK chronic also appeared after the initial upgrade of El Capitan.  This popup is displayed regardless of the question of whether Java is updated to the latest rev, or once the Pref window disappears completely in the system preferences panel.

    The windows popup to third and following related to the parameters of the firewall for "openinfo" network connections, "openexec" and "openbase.  These popups appear even if the settings of the firewall have been set to 'Allow' or 'Block' inbound network traffic for each of them... and for "openbase" even once the OpenBase Pref Pane has been removed from the System Prefs.  In addition, they appear even after the firewall has been disabled.

    The next update of Sierra should address these errors as soon as POSSIBLE or we will return to Yosemite.

    Changing the settings of firewall to block all incoming connections eliminates the popups mentioned in the third paragraph above.

    The "Scan of the PC Settings" and the Java SDK error dialog boxes always appear after the successful logon.  Running MalwareBytes and ClamXav do not eliminate these pop-up windows.

  • Cannot print a pop-up or pop-under window

    .. When the popup is really helpful, as in "boarding!

    The popup was not a button 'print '. In addition, a right-click on the pop-up window is not a PRINT option, and not being a popup, there is no menu either.

    This is a serious omission by FF.

    You can use {Ctrl + P} to print in this type of situation.

    Regarding the absence of a menu item print from the context menu, Firefox has never had a. But there are a few extensions that add to this context menu item. I use this one:

  • 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.

  • Pop-up window opens when firefox is open. Cannot close to use the browser. How can I get rid of this?

    There is no text in the pop-up window, and when I click outside the window, there is a tone 'error' that plays. The only way I can close Firefox is to open the Task Manager and end task. I deleted Firefox on my computer and reinstalled, and it has not solved the problem. Included is a screenshot of what it looks like.

    This can result from the AOL toolbar.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • Firefox opens. Pop-up window comes up with nothing visible. Unable to close the pop up or anything

    Firefox opens. immediately, a pop window opens up with a box and a button bar. everything is described without color or text. Pop-up window cannot be closed. May not exceed the home screen.

  • When I go into options I can't access "content" so I can't make changes to the pop-up windows

    I have been making a large number of pop-up windows and you want to check if I clicked block pop-up windows, but I can't access the tab "content" under options. I can click on the other tabs, but the 'content' tab just shows the last tab, on that I clicked...

    One of the reasons a lot of pop ups is a bad add-on. I suggest starting your cleaning here:

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

  • -Pop-up windows can not scroll?

    I noticed that in comparing to other browsers when there is a pop-up, for example when you use PrintFriendly to print the page I'll be staying - this pop-up window is not at all, making it impossible to decide what to print or not scrollable.

    I would like to know if you would like to clarify me the problem more or give an example of a problem?

    Unfortunately this uses shareaholic and bury code in some minimized js code (and as I am not web developer myself i can't make much sense of it unfortunately).

    According to http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_open.asp , it seems that chrome and webkit browsers are simply not address the setting of scrollbars in Window.Open)

    your only options may be to report this behavior as a bug of shareaholic (https://shareaholic.com/contact) or to implement the functionality of printfriendly manually yourself...

  • A lot of pop-up windows and sticking in the browser behavior

    Have weird ads via safari and chrome. A lot of popup displays in any browser and also a few become clickable buttons disabled and typing becomes almost impossible through any program that uses the web. When you are not running any browser, everything works perfectly fine.

    Recently, my brother was received by an irritating contextual advertising on his Mac. I guided through the steps to remove, so I'll repeat it here.

    Pop-up ads are advertisements that open above or below the window of your browser, in another tab, or as a graphic element in the current window. Sometimes they refuse to leave the same when you try to close.

    If these ads appear, DO NOT give type of important information about your Apple ID, credit cards, etc. If an ad does not close, it's almost certainly a scam after your money.

    To get rid of adware, begin by closing pop-ups that are open. If a window pop up on your Mac includes a checkbox "don't show alerts more since this Web page", check the box before you close the pop-up window. If a window closes (like in the case of my brother) close Safari on

    your Mac.

    Restart the web browser on your Mac that you hold down the SHIFT key. This prevents the reopening Safari automatically all the windows.

    Then, choose Preferences from the Safari menu, and then follow these steps:

    • Click on the security icon, and select "Block pop-up windows" to stop certain types of pop-ups.
    • Check the settings of your homepage and search engine. Sometimes adware changes these settings.
    • Click the general icon and make sure the homepage field is empty or contains the Web site you want.
    • Click on the search icon and make sure that the setting of search engine displays your favorite search engine. In some versions of Safari, this parameter is in the general pane.

    If you still have problems, or just want to check your Mac occasionally for adware - download app in sandbox "Dr. Safetry" in the App Store. It's free for domestic use clean adware, in addition to malware including trojans.

  • I just got a new computer with Win 8.1 and whenever I open firefox, I get dozens of pop-up windows.

    I disabled this popup option in the options. Why is this happening? They are all over the screen, a few small pop-up windows and others are full-size Firefox. It's driving me crazy. It doesn't happen when I use Chrome. But I don't like Chrome. I'm on Firefox 31.0

    Hi babrown, if you are not sure that your Firefox is a clean version, you can replace your program files without disturbing your settings by using this procedure to clean reinstall :

    (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 31 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (2) the release of Firefox.

    (3) to rename the folder (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    If all goes well, then you can be easier.

    Note: Some plugins recently installed can exist only in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \OldFirefox\Plugins
    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
  • How can I print out of a pop-up window? There is no buttons I can find!

    The site I use for my writings for my work creates a pop-up window that has my works in order. I usually use firefox to do this because I was able to reduce preview before printing and reduce the amount of paper that I use, but now I can't even print at all! Is there something that I am missing or is it just went?

    You can use the hotkey Ctrl + P to open the print dialog box.
