Suddenly cannot enter anything into some empty search fields, drop-down menus does not and javascript popups freeze randomly. WTH?

I noticed a few things randomly does not not on my computer in the last month or two, and I have tried everything I can think to figure out what it is... still have not thought about it yet. Examples - I was on ebay and the tracking number, I clicked on the page 'My ebay' jumped open a javascript window, but then froze the page so I had to close the tab all. Then on Grooveshark, home page comes up, but if I type anything in the search field, I see what I type, but at the same time, I can still see their default search message. If I try to enter something and click search, it gives me just the warning that I wonder if I want to leave the page, he is never looking for. There are a few other times I think that I tried to use a menu drop-down, and they don't always work - they look just like they are which is clicked but nothing shows. Also do not know if it of related or not, but it is worth mentioning: I tried to install Freecorder and even if I tried both the toolbar and just the installation options button, it does not appear to me to use it, and who is with more disabled adblock. Also not positive took my last update of Adobe Flash, even if I downloaded it.

I like adblock, but I have had that for years, and it has never caused a problem or stopped me to see everything I wanted to see. My system was pretty bada * before that, and it's frustrating that all of a sudden I can't go everywhere and do everything I could before. Why he does this, and I can fix it?

Meh... If I had started here rather than try this search at random, I would have fixed the problem weeks ago. I just did a reset of Firefox and tried all the things I mentioned in the op, and everything seems to work fine now. Well well, outside Freecorder, but I can do the work in a different way, I guess. In any case, reset Firefox = solution. Yay!

  • Quick drop-down list does not update during the search

    My Quick Drop started acting today.  Normally, when I start typing, the list under the search box updates to show all possible matches.  This is not is no longer the case.  He always tries to autocomplete the search field, but the list is not updated.  [attached screenshot]

    I'm under LabVIEW 2009 SP1 on Windows XP 32-bit.

    For what it's worth, LabVIEW crashed went on vacation early evening Wednesday last, just before I was preparing to leave for the weekend.  When I went back to work this morning, Quick Drop work properly.  I don't know if these two events are linked, but I thought it was a possibility.

    I tried to restart my PC and rename the file LabVIEW.ini and LabVIEW restarting with a new configuration, but not luck.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    It seems that I solved the problem.

    Yesterday, I noticed that the Quick Drop worked when I took my laptop to my cubicle to a job in another location.  When I started my laptop in my closet this morning, however, the problems are back.  Apparently, the problem was related to the use of the docking station for my laptop.  Something in the configuration to the hardware profile 'anchored' have been corrupted, causing the problem Quick Drop, among other buggy problems (for example, do not allow me to click and drag the mouse to highlight text).  I unplugged the laptop from the docking station, and suddenly everything worked very well.  Once I reconnected it the laptop to the docking station, it was apparently crushing the hardware profile "anchored" corrupt, because the next time I start the computer when you are connected to the docking station, everything has worked.

  • Country of destination - drop-down list does not not on some computers

    Hello

    I just had our second client state on the shopping cart page they can't scroll down to select the destination state:

    "I had to put American Samoa because the drop down menu would not let me scroll U.S. on my lap top."

    I don't see how to change the list via the modules - shopping cart page.

    Does anyone know how to make U.S. top the Australia?

    Thank you

    Hi DandyDahlia,

    It is possible to manually set the order in which countries appear by listing them using the settings for the following tag: {tag_shippingoptions, true, US; GB; AU,}.

    In this example, the order in which countries will appear in the menu drop-down are the following:

    United States

    United Kingdom

    Australia

    Notes; Only these 3 countries will appear in the drop-down - menu you need to list all countries manually in this tag that you want to appear in the menu dropdown.

    More information can be found in the following article: ng.html #id_727 http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/displaying-shipping-options-inside-shoppi.

  • Enter data into the empty cell inserts the invalid main character

    When I enter data in an empty cell, for example 1 in a column, and then click validation I get the error ORA-01722: invalid number. Although I do not see the character in front of the 1 I use RIGHT twice after reaching HOME in this cell to get the cursor to the right of the 1, if a character appeared in front of the 1. Hit the BACKSPACE deletes the invisible character, and now I can commit the data entered.

    The same thing seems to happen when you remove a date using backspace in a date column. The use of return back once led to an error "ORA-01858: a non-digit character was found here where was waiting for a digital". I have to use the BACKSPACE again to get the empty cell.
    And the same thing happens in a varchar column too, although sometimes when he gets that space seems to be inserted in front of the text I entered, but this space is visible only when the cursor is not in the cell.

    What causes this? Bug in the developer SQL, SQL Developer settings, settings of the keyboard, something else?

    (Oracle SQL developer 3.1.0.7 64bits)

    This is a bug and has been fixed for the next version.

  • Cannot scroll inside the drop down Menus

    I just got a new laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit) HP, installed Firefox 11 (now updated to 12) and discovered that when using the touchpad (Touchpad Synaptics v8.1. Driver provided by Synaptics, version 15.3.29.0 as of 10/13/2011), I can't scroll inside the drop down menus.

    To replicate, go to this link: http://sacramento.craigslist.org/sss/

    Click on the drop down menu to the search category. Use the touch pad to scroll through the list. Mine closed list and returns focus in the browser instead of scrolling of the list. It then scrolls the window of the browser instead. This works fine in IE. I tried the things:

    Safe mode
    Unchecking scroll smoothly
    Uncheck auto-scroll
    Uncheck the hardware acceleration

    And about all the various combinations of the above things. I also tried to restart Firefox every time I made a change. Nothing seems to solve this problem.

    Oddly enough, if there is a window of text within the page (as I write this), I can scroll than fine. Once I move my mouse out of the box, it scrolls the homepage very well. I don't think that it is a matter of the development following the mouse, there something to scrollable drop-down boxes that specifically seems.

    Also, I must point out that all the pages I have problems with work well in IE how they SHOULD work in Firefox.

    I had this exact problem, the same features of HP and the driver Synaptics. I went to synaptics site and downloaded their latest driver which is lower 15.3.29.0 for some reason any. There 15.2.20, I got this one for 64 bit since that's what I have. You must uninstall the 15.3.29.0 first because it is "newer". He now works properly in FF and IE and everything else. If for any reason any the last FF has a confrontation with the latest version of the synaptics driver and FF devs had to include a fix in the next patch.

  • The mouse only works in the active window and cannot select drop-down menus (W7)

    Hello

    I can't understand what is the cause. I can only select things in the active window with my mouse, I can't move the window, I can't click on anything whatsoever outside of it.

    ATM by writing this, I can not open another program or select the bar of tasks or do anything outside that window. (unless I use CTRL-ALT-DEL and force to select a new active window with my keyboard)

    Another thing is that everything works within the window, except one thing, menus drop down, I can bring up the menu drop-down but can not select anything on the menu.

    I reinstalled windows to do this same thing. I can't understand why windows doesn't let me choose some things outside my main window, it's that I'm sort of protected mode.

    Thanks for any help

    Hello

    -What is laptop or desktop?
    -What is the brand and model of the mouse? Is it wired or wireless mouse?
    -Have you tried plugging the mouse on another computer?
     
    Method 1: I would also say you update the drivers for the mouse on the computer and check if it helps.
    Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly
     
    Method 2: Also, I suggest you use Microsoft Safety scanner to make sure that your computer is free from malware and check if it helps.
    Microsoft safety scanner
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The Microsoft Safety Scanner is not a replacement for the use of antivirus software that offers continuous protection. For a real-time protection that helps you keep your home or small office PC against viruses, spyware and other malicious software, download Microsoft Security Essentials.
    Method 3: I suggest you try to check with the other mice to make sure that the problem is not with the computer.
     
    If it is a laptop, I suggest you to check if a FN key function is to to do this. As you are facing the issue after reinstalling the operating system, I also suggest you check with the manufacturer of the computer, if there is this key.
     
    Hope this information helps.

  • Search 1 table D work does not double

    Can anyone tell why search 1 table D function does not work as expected in the attached VI?

    Hi Singh,

    The 2 numbers you have are not equal:

    Table number is actually: 0.5872335427799636, you can see this by changing the display format.

    Its to do with the way the double value is stored on the computer.

    I use an array called "equal about" Comparing the figures with a specified decimal:

    I have attached the vi "approximately equal to". As said, you can specify the accuracy of the comparison.

  • After VO extension update the page for some fields on a page does not work

    After VO extension update the page for some fields on a page does not work. The message arrives the data are saved, but the values is the same as that of the former. And this happens with only a few fields, other fields are working well.

    Any pointer to solve problems will be of great help.

    Thank you in advance.

    Check if the standard VO has a RowImpl and it overrides the methods getter and setter for fields that is affected. If so, you will need to call super() in your custom extended RowImpl to call this logic.

    See the link below for how to call great from the extended RowImpl.

  • Form - enter the names of the State/province drop-down list

    Hello again,

    I use Acrobat Pro DC using a MC Pro and I want to create a list drop-down States and provinces on my form. After clicking Properties and then Options, is there a way to enter all state names at the same time instead of adding one by one? I know there are scripts out there, but I thought that I could create the list that I needed from the List of States - 50 AMERICAN States - Canadian Provinces - Australian States - Mexican States - Brazilian - States ListStates.co... and copy and paste them.

    I read on the drop-down lists, but I don't see that he offered to DC Pro. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Thank you.

    Yes, it's possible, but it takes using a script.

    The basic format of this script is:

    this.getField("DropDownName").setItems (["Alaska", "Alabama",...]);

    If you have the items in a text file or a spreadsheet and want to import at the same time you can use a tool like this, I developed, which can be purchased here: Scripts custom Adobe: Acrobat - items import from a text file to a combo box or a list box

    I also offer a free sample with all 50 US States file field drop-down list that you can copy and use in your own file.
