Using the Mac OS vs dictionary add dictionary for spelling in Firefox

I have a series of questions related to the dictionary of the BONE and up the definitions of words and spelling. With Safari, I could use command +: to activate the spell checker and loved using it. I have the spell checker works with FireFox via preferences/Advanced/Check my spelling as I type and as the better alternative. I suppose I could get used to the method using FireFox, but do not understand why cmd: can not too much work. I even went through system preferences and added as a keyboard shortcut for Firefox without success. I'm not "see anything in the drop using that - the combination of keys so what blocks?" Another important feature that does not work is that I can't click on a Word to look up the definition. This is an important feature and I use it often. Because of these, I stopped using firefox and continue to use Safari, even if Safari does not work for a primary site I visit. Safari is also usually slow and crashes constantly causing me a lot of grief. If the problems that I wrote everything worked I would not use Safari again and commit to using Firefox. I would be grateful to know how to do what I'm doing. Thank you

I use Firefox on a MAC OSX 10.7.5 20.0. I use an add-on called "Look Up In Dictionary" works perfectly. It evokes the native MAC dictionary as in Safari.

  • Why using the typewriter in acrobat 9 adds less file size that the use of the text of the comment in acrobat 11 tool?

    Why using the typewriter in acrobat 9 adds less file size that the use of the text of the comment in acrobat 11 tool?

    Two employees, one using acrobat 9 and the other uses acrobat 11. The two employees open a secure document one page 105 KB in size. Used using acrobat 9 using the typewriter tool to add comments. Document increases in volume to 137 kb. Second employee using acrobat 11 uses the comment add the text tool (since it is no longer a typewriter tool). This employee has to use tool once and the document immediately increases size of 105 k to 950 + kb. Why is this? What can be done to avoid this?

    As I suspected much earlier, the difference is in the fonts that are used for the text. For the smaller file, text annotation font is Times Roman. that is a policy that is essentially built into Acrobat/Reader. For the larger file, the font is Tahoma, which is not an integrated police force, which ends by happens so the entire police gets embedded in the PDF file. The size of this font on disk file is 681KO on my system (Mac), and it ends up taking more space when they are embedded in the PDF file. The same type of thing happens with form fields and this is done so that all characters in the font are available when the text is changed in a system that may not have the installed font.

    One of the problems is if you try to reduce the size of the file by changing the font that used up one of the built-in ones (Courier, Helvetica, TImes Roman), Acrobat does not remove the now unused of the file font information, if you do not get the reduction in file size that you can imagine, even if the font is no longer presented as being incorporated. I submitted this as a bug some time ago, but it has not been fixed.

  • Hello, I bought 12 Photoshop elements online.  I use a Mac but got a serial number for wind energy

    Hello

    I bought 12 Photoshop elements online.

    I use a Mac but got a serial number for windows.

    Would you please provide me with a serial number Mac please.

    Your support is much appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Katrina

    The serial number for Photoshop Elements must be valid for PC and Mac.  PSE is one of the few applications that allows the same license for different platforms.

    You must contact Adobe Support by chat or phone when you have the serial number and activation problems.

    Here are some links to help get in touch:

    When you try to connect to my router using the IP address, he continues to ask for a password of windows security.  I don't know what it is, I tried recording with every combination I can think.  Can anyone help?

    If you do not know the password of the router, then chances are good that you will need to reset it to the factory settings. Google your model and you should be able to find the instructions.

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I add a site to use the master password I clicked previously never "for this site?

    When first asked me if I wanted to use the master password to a site (specifically www.facebook.com) I clicked on "never" do not forget the password for this site. How can I use the master password to this site (or any site) now?
    Thank you

    1. Click on the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Security.
    2. Click the 'Exceptions' button and remove Facebook from the list.

    The next time you go to Facebook and type your password, you should get the option to add to the list of passwords.

  • I bought a 2 French MagSafe adapter for my Mac of USA. Can I also use the cord French him with my USA for the first Mac adapter?

    We are the USA, but visit the France my MacAir and Macbook Pro husband. Both use the 2 MagSafe power adapter. So, I bought a power MagSafe 2 with French plugs adapter. Can we mix and match, while in France, using (1) the French MagSafe 2 adapter plug directly into the more (2) the French cord with adapter USA. In addition, we were worried we needed the voltage conversion of 240 to 110 while in France but the other, the old messages suggest that we could simply use an adaptor plug French with the USA MagSafe 2 even power adapter. Is this true?

    You don't need a power converter. The Chargers can use 110-240 volts. Read the fine print on the charger (you will need a magnifying glass if your eyes are as bad as mine). The only part you need is the area plug the adapter to fit the wall socket.

  • OEM 12 c uses the MAC address?

    Hello

    I wonder if the OEM 12 c is related to the MAC address of the NETWORK card of the server somehow.

    The server is Windows 2008 Virtual Server.

    OEM OEM 12.1.0.3 and the repository database is 11.2.0.3 located on the same server.

    Thank you

    Emilija

    I agree with Courtney,

    It is linked to the IP address and MAC address.

    If IP changes, you must change all Agents and also must again fix the Agent.

  • Browser Konqueror for Linux has a CPU limitation function useful for Web sites using Flash content. You can add such a feature in Firefox?

    I recently discovered that browser Konqueror for Linux can help the user to limit the CPU usage while visiting a Web site using flash technology by changing the settings in the Flash section and by adjusting the slider settings VERY HIGH to HIGH and AVERAGE and so on. It actually works and it doesn't have a direct impact on the overall performance for flash player, but it can lead to conflicts if other such extensions that add blocker or click-to-flash are also enabled.

    Maybe you can add a similar setting in Firefox in the browser or just as a useful addon or extension option section.

    Hi Michael,
    I love the sound of that. I found an add on which has Visual for the CPU usage as well as can be useful

    Topic: memory page also contains a detailed report that breaks down each process that occupies this space. I wonder if it is a supplement that taps by limiting these
    Something like limiter window and tab
