Since unpgrading to Firefox 4. When you type text there is a redraw problems causing several sliders to appear, and obliterates often part or entire od letters

There is a refresh problem that occurs when the text entry, regardless of the site or by email or a login form. Sometimes up to 5 sliders are visible especially if the back button back or a button is pressed quickly. Sometimes these sliders obliterate or obscure the letter makes it difficult to determine is that the letter was actually typed.
More when you try to select if the selection will be highlighted in a dynamic menu as a google search, that the selection cannot be made with the same mouse nothing ever happens and the only way to make it work is a combination of mouse and key.

It is a problem that does not occur when I try IE or Chrome. My preference is be Firefox

  • Problems of blackBerry Smartphones when you type text messages

At whits end? Someone else had this problem?

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    If you are certain that there is no intrusion of humidity of 100% (honestly, what you describe seems decidedly like that... but still), so I recommend that you try to start safe mode:

    • KB17877 How to start a smartphone BlackBerry in Mode safe

    It will take several attempts to get the combination of keys ESC (press/release/hold) OK, so be patient. When properly in Safe Mode, thinking... what happened just before this behavior started? A new application? An update? A theme? Something else? Think carefully that the slightest change can be causal... and try to undo all that was.

    Good luck and let us know!

    Hello

    I work for a software company that sells a program that was written in Director MX. One of our customers has a problem with the program where, whenever he's trying to type text in any text field, the program simply stops. This client is the only one who is having the problem.

  • 10 iOS safari screen do not scroll when you type text

    After the iOS10 update, Safari is not scroll when I m typing text in a field text as here in a forum. I have to scroll the screen by hand for the position where type I´m. it occurs only in Safari, for example Pages works fine.

    I use an iPad Air1, but have the same on my iPhone running iOS 10 6.

    Is there any solution for this?  Thank you.

    Hello Toy4ever,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how it is important to be able to effectively tap on your iPad, and I want to help you get things working again.

    What I would recommend starting with a reboot of base and if the problem continues, you can reset the settings on your iPad. Despite the fear two-step attention, this does not affect your data. All of your content will remain intact.

    You can always save your settings in iTunes or iCloud data before doing this reset. This link will guide you through backup if you choose to do so: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203977

    What this does is actually reset some of your settings to factory default. This removes all data and applications, photos or contacts, but it removes all of your preferences for the Wi - Fi, Bluetooth, do not disturb, Notifications, general, sounds, contact ID, brightness & wallpaper and privacy, so we will have to define these things upwards after this reset.

    Do this please go to settings > general > reset > reset all settings.

    If the problem persists, the entire community is here to help.
    Best regards

    I had the same problem after trying an update of Firefox 7.x to version 9.0.1.
    I deleted the file named "firefox.exe.moz - upgrade" from the folder C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox. After that, I was able to uninstall Firefox from the control panel. After the reboot, I was able to install Firefox 9.0.1 and run it without error.
