Why keyboard shortcuts are not enabled in FireFox 25 on Win7?

I try to use 25 Firefox on a Win7 computer. When I used this computer before, the hotkeys worked in Firefox. Now, however, they have not.

I have already been through the Options menu, and I don't see a place to enable or disable keyboard shortcuts.

I have several add-ons; all persons with disabilities. Yalho toolbar, SEQ shake the toolbar, Alexa toolbar.

I need the keyboard shortcuts. Not only do not have them slow me down, it is very very very annoying to have to take my hands on the keyboard, put them on the mouse, click on where I want and THEN return to the keyboard to type. ARRRGH!

Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

(If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
  • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

  • Keyboard shortcuts do not work in Firefox on Mac OS 10.7.2 9.0.1

    I just bought a new MacBook Air with Mac OS Lion for the first time. No keyboard shortcut does work in Firefox 9.0.1 with a new facility. Command-T or W or N CXZ - none of them do anything. They have all the flash of the appropriate menu bar (so the Word file menu flashes when I press Cmd - T) but nothing happens.

    If I start by opening the menu and press the shortcut, it works.

    Sorry, my fault. I use a program called ukulele to create a custom layout that matches my physical keyboard. It seems lion it causes some side effects in different programs - this is the more remarkable in Firefox and Thunderbird. I returned to the standard input and everything works.

  • Some ALT keyboard shortcuts do not work in the resolution of the screen Panel

    PROBLEM:

    It seems that the resolution of the screen control panel dialog box some accessed via the ALT keyboard shortcuts do not seem to.

    The Alt-combinations that do not seem to work are listed:

    Alt + s   (' Display: "menu drop-down)

    Alt + O   ("' Orientation:" menu drop-down ")

    ALT + M   ("" Several screens: "menu drop-down")

    Is it possible to access them using some/different specified keyboard shortcuts or is it a case that they have not been implemented?

    The following Reproduction method was tested using two and three monitors attached with a multi-display compatible video card (see further below for a test instance), although the problem can still occur with a single, or more than three monitors.

    MODE OF REPRODUCTION:

    (1) open the control panel.

    (2) select 'View' then 'Adjust the resolution' (or simply select "Adjust screen resolution" If a category view).

    (3) once the screen resolution dialog, hold down the ALT (left) (notice the different points on the page which reveal a letter underlined in their chain to suggest this is accessible by pressing the corresponding key on the keyboard).

    "(4) with [ALT] key again press the [R] key on the keyboard and notice how this will display the corresponding resolution:" drop-down list (it's very well and as expected).

    (5) now release both keys and press the [ESC] key to clear the menu drop down.

    (6) and repeat steps 3-4 but this time using the key [O] instead of [R] (in theory, this should appear the "Orientation:" menu drop-down).

    (7) notice how nothing is happening, i.e. the "Orientation:" drop-down menu does not open upward.

    (8) repeat step 5.

    (9) now to repeat the following steps 6 through 8 for each of the keys: [D] ("' Display:" "), [M] (" "several screens:" ").

    (10) even after noticing how these keyboard shortcuts do not seem to work as suggested points out when you press [ALT].

  • Keyboard shortcuts do not work in .saveDialog or .saveDlg

    Hey all,.

    First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this and help. It is greatly appreciated.

    I'm working on a simple script where it exported an InDesign file to PDF, opening a record the dialog window for the user to select the location to save and give it a name.

    We have another system that generates the name for us because we just simply copy and paste into the window. This works well when there is a normal export using InDesign built way to do, but when I try and do it through the script, keyboard shortcuts do not seem to work.

    No idea why?

    Here is an example of the code in the loop...

    //========================== Export PDF ================================//

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myFolderName = myDoc.filePath;


var myDocumentName = myDoc.name.slice (0, -5);


//Apply a name to the PDF file based on the INDD file, but without the .indd extension
//var myFileName = myFolderName + "/" + myDocumentName;
var myFileName = File(myDoc.name);
var myFile = myFileName.saveDlg("Please insert a file name");
  
//Do not open the PDF Export dialog box. Set "false" to "true" if you want the dialog box.
myDoc.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false, "Email");

//========================== End  - Export PDF Script ================================//

    Now, I'm not expert in script, I get everything, follow tutorials and try to piece things together (learning by doing), so any help would be greatly appreciated, especially if you can explain your answer in plain English

    If I did not make myself clear, let me know and I'll explain it another way.

    Thanks in advance.

    Your screenshot indicates that the dialog box has been with ScriptUI. If this is the case, then you have your explanation: ScriptUI windows do not like copy/cut/paste shortcuts. It has become better in the latest versions on Windows, but it's no good for you. Anyway, there is nothing you can do about it.

    AI CS5 keyboard shortcuts do not work. I restarted and have no other problem with my MacBook Pro. What is the problem?

    Bill,

    The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

    (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall.

  • Refresh the view current firefox page by using the keyboard shortcut without concentrating on the firefox window.

    I want to refresh the current page tab that the firefox browser open without focusing on that. For example, I focus on a text editor (creating a server-side code) and I save some changes and trigger my custom shortcut (IE [ctrl + alt + space + a]) key to refresh the firefox browser without concentrating on it.

    You can do that with a keyboard shortcut without opening/development the Firefox window.

    Hi imoffshore,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    We would like to get some more information from you to help solve your problem. You better, please answer the following questions.

    ·         When was the last time it worked?

    ·         Remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    ·         You have security software installed on the computer?

    ·         You get the error message?

    When you open the tab automatic updates in the control panel or My Computer property sheet, all options of configuration of the automatic updates may be grayed out. This happens due to one of the following reasons:

    1. You are not logged as administrator (or equivalent)
    2. Strategy of automatic updates is enabled
    3. Automatic updates (and Windows Update) access is blocked by group policy

    The options available for automatic updates.

    You must make some changes in the windows registry.

    Important: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
