text in adressbar and searchbar autoselecting fails or happens when I press bacspace

I've just updated from 32.x to 33.1
I'm on win7-64.

I now have a problem whenever I try to access the address bar (the control when you type the URL) and the serach bar.
It has been that when the control had not developed to the point you clicked into it, the text was autoselected, it means that when you start typing, it replaces the previous text. This behavior is consistent with other major browsers (IE, Chrome, Opera).

After the update whenever I click in the address bar (or the search bar) the text is not selected. Sometimes when I move the mouse upward (not having any button of the mouse down), it selects the text.
It's embarrassing, the only consistent way to select the text now is by pressing Ctrl + A.
What is even worse, is that when I click in the address bar (search-bar), (no ets selected text), and I have the BACKSPACE key (I'm at the end of the text) then selects the text and deletes all of the text.

As well as the fact that type in FF 33.1 ismuch, much, much slower than in 32, making it almost completely useless browser for me, that's too bad, because I use FF as my default of version 1.5 browser.

Does anyone know a fix for this (or should I downgrade (how?))?

Affecting false to layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled seems to have resolved this issue.
The hardware acceleration setting has no influence on it.

Two possible solutions have been found on this forum, so thank you to the community!

  • HP EliteBook 8560p: can not turn on WiFi: the button is orange, and nothing happens when you press

    Hello

    I have a problem with my wifi. The button always orange and nothing happens when I press on it: no errors, no message, no reaction at all. This is why I can't use WiFi.

    The laptop is a little new: I use only 2 months.

    1. number and product name

    HP EliteBook 8560p
    НР LQ589AW

    2 operating system installed (if applicable)

    Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

    3. error message (if any)

    No error message

    4. all changes made to your system until the problem occurred

    My windows crashed and I got it from archive created a few days ago. Archive includes all data from hard drives, the system has been restored exactly as it was before the accident. I still don't know if this caused the problem (or if the problem occurred after that): it happened a month ago, and I had no WiFi available at the time and only tried to turn it on a few days ago.

    Additional details:

    In device manager wireless card is appearing as functioning normally. In the management of the adapter Wi - Fi is on but says "no connection available. If I run diagnostic tests, he asks me to activate WIFI with a button on my laptop, which I can't do. In Mobility Center, it says "connection Wi - Fi is turned off". Activate the button is gray and impossible to click on.

    I already tried things:

    1. Reinstalled all the HP drivers from original CD.
    2. Card WiFi removed in the windows Device Manager (remove device), restarted windows, installed new drivers for it, rebooted again;
    3. Checked the mobility Center as suggested in one of the threads available on this forum;
    4. Do a hard reset for HP laptop (battery removed, push the button and hold for a minute).

    Thanks for any help!

    Anatoliy.

    I managed to solve the problem...

    Turns out that the problem was (apparently) caused by HP Power Assistant tool shipped with my laptop. Default profile has been showing the gray bluetooth and WiFi, and it was not possible to turn them on. I created a new profile, and even if all the parameters are identical to the default profile, it allows me to turn the BT and WiFi and turn off without any problems. Button is working fine now as well and goes from blue to orange when I press it. Active WiFi and it works.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP g7-1320dx - on the numeric keypad does not work and the Num Lock will beep when you press

    Today, I noticed that my keypad does not work. The keys / *-+ and 'Enter' works, but the actual number will not.

    When I press NUM LOCK, it only beeps and turns the light active or not. And the keys / *-+ and 'Enter' won't work, any more than the actual digital keys.

    The regular keyboard numbers and keys all work, it is a simple matter of numeric keypad.

    Any ideas?

    So I thought that my own problem.

  • Audio jack play and pause/stop when you press the various buttons

    Hi all

    I do a simple radio interface and I have 6 buttons which I want to have that specific preset song playing of the button located in the library screening and stop/pause the current song when you press any preset button.

    I tried to use the attachSound, with associated identifiers but don't know if it's the right way to go. He plays songs, but does not stop their...

    {mc_FM1preset1.onRelease = Function ()}
    {if(!this.) Toggle)}
    this.gotoAndStop ("release");
    radio_FM1. Text = FM1preset1
    FM1value = 1

    PlayFM1_1 = new Sound (this);
    PlayFM1_1.attachSound (FM1preset1_song);
    PlayFM1_1.start (0, 1);

    PlayFM1_6.pause;
    PlayFM1_5.pause;
    PlayFM1_4.pause;
    PlayFM1_3.pause;
    PlayFM1_2.pause;

    }
    }


    }
    {mc_FM1preset2.onRelease = Function ()}
    {if(!this.) Toggle)}
    this.gotoAndStop ("release");
    radio_FM1. Text = FM1preset2

    PlayFM1_2 = new Sound (this);
    PlayFM1_2.attachSound (FM1preset2_song);
    PlayFM1_2.start (0, 1);

    PlayFM1_5.pause;
    PlayFM1_4.pause;
    PlayFM1_3.pause;
    PlayFM1_1.unload;

    }
    }

    then I tried just to put each piece in its own clip and using this code, but it still doesn't stop/pause the song.

    Stop();

    {mc_preset1.onRelease = Function ()}
    mc_song1. Play();
    mc_song2. Stop();
    }


    {mc_preset2.onRelease = Function ()}
    mc_song2. Play();
    mc_song1. Stop (1);
    }

    Does anyone have any suggestions? Any help would be great! Thank you!!!

    Basically, I just need to know how to do the supported mc or button to STOP / to PAUSE the song that plays

    Thank you!!!

    -PAt

    the sound class has no property of break.  It has a stop() method, you must use:

    {mc_FM1preset1.onRelease = Function ()}
    {if(!this.) Toggle)}
    this.gotoAndStop ("release");
    radio_FM1. Text = FM1preset1
    FM1value = 1
           
    PlayFM1_1 = new Sound (this);


    PlayFM1_1.attachSound (FM1preset1_song);
    PlayFM1_1.start (0, 1);
           
    PlayFM1_6.stop ();
    PlayFM1_5.stop ();  etc.
    PlayFM1_4.pause;
    PlayFM1_3.pause;
    PlayFM1_2.pause;
           
    }
    }

    }
    {mc_FM1preset2.onRelease = Function ()}
    {if(!this.) Toggle)}
    this.gotoAndStop ("release");
    radio_FM1. Text = FM1preset2
    FM1value = 2
           
    PlayFM1_2 = new Sound (this);
    PlayFM1_2.attachSound (FM1preset2_song);
    PlayFM1_2.start (0, 1);
           
    PlayFM1_6.pause;
    PlayFM1_5.pause;
    PlayFM1_4.pause;
    PlayFM1_3.pause;
    PlayFM1_1.unload;

    OK,... it's the daughter, my cell phone... and it has been dragging for many months as its network performance sucks!... When I try... It seems to work correctly.

    However... I've started using it myself to Antoinette this weekend, and yes she is right it sucks... Sorry (Dear daugther).

    I did in so many of the modules are up-to-date, including the BIOS,... but all update is a problem "chicken and egg", as the network fails usually... I managed to get win 8.1 and recently updated in a large download loading to another portable PC, transfer of pen USB... and the loading on the spot... all seem to date, network... drivers and the problem is present on cable and wired and wireless connections.

    I'm not absolutely sure... (and I'm more than happy to be corrected,.) . but the problem seems almost be associated DNS... failure to access the web site... I can ping my local router... and even ping to an external address from across the globe and get an answer in less than 50 ms... While access to ebay.co.uk or BBC fails and times out...

    I disabled the LAN IPv6 implementation... Although when I loaded the new BIOS... I don't no the default BIOS... Should I do this or is it done by default...

  • Mouse, fingerprint and photo scanner fail after updating to the latest version of Windows 7

    Since the last update of Windows 7, my wireless mouse, fingerprint reader and webcam all failed to exploit.  Please advise?

    Hi Divya R,.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer.  In Device Manager, there's 3 USB without name of devices that contained errors.  Even uninstall and restart did not resolve errors.  As the fingerprint reader and camera are built into the laptop, there is no option "Reinstall" and Sony eSupport was just shocking!

    So after some reading on various forums where a lot of people report the same problems with Windows 7 auto was last updated, I stumbled upon a solution:

    SOLUTION:

    1 uninstall USB devices without a name with errors.

    2. shut down Windows.

    3 unplug the laptop and remove the battery of the laptop for a few minutes

    4. replace the battery and restart Windows

    5 USB devices reinstall themselves and fix of a problem!

    Can someone at Microsoft tell me why it works?

    Other than this little glitch, I'm very happy with Windows 7.  Thank you very much!
