Hi, Just a few hours ago, firefox has updated itself to the new version, 20.0. After restarting, it seems all working fine. But when I did right clicking to view the context menu (and copy image location), I saw a long list, with options like "Pause", "Play", "Mute" and so on.

Here is a shot: http://2imgs.com/2i/i/515c6224/79903d27bae38742936c6eea68084f43/d1af1c36e5.f.png

Suddenly, since the latest update (20.0.1) my right-click menu is terribly LONG. It's filled with things that seem useful, but are not to be and are not necessary at all. E.g. it contains video-control options, like mute and play, go full screen.

More weird and worse above this is: absolutely nothing in that same menu works or does anything. I

Here is a screen capture of it. It is the regular menu, randomly clicked, which appears everywhere. http://s23.postimg.org/ur0zwg4bf/regrigclibar.png

What's about this? Bug? I think anyway it is broken and needs to be solved.

After upgrading to the firefox 20.0.1 some of the context menus are not functioning properly. One of them is "Copy Link Location" and Search Keyword , Almost all the time it is showing the image related menu items.

here i would like to mention that i disabled all the extensions and the situation was same.

So, after updating to Adobe Flash 11.7...I can no longer watch a single video anywhere on the web without the sound randomly cutting out. Flash does not crash, it just stops playing the sound and keeps playing the video. I can rewind the video to a time before it cut out but then it cuts out again RIGHT as I rewind to a new point in the video. Where as before in the location I rewound to, it did not have the sound cut out before when I first watched up to and past that point. I have no idea what has caused this (except or maybe Adobe screwed something up).

Does anyone else have this issue? And what have you done to solve it (if you have)? Also, if this a Firefox only issue? Or is it everyone Web browser?

Thanks for any help given.

I just loaded windows 8 onto my system and placed Firefox version 19. as my web browser and went to Youtube and updated flash to the Version it was looking for which in this case is 11.6 r602 and now everywhere that I go on the web the plug in pops up says it fails and locks up my firefox. I have done what the suggestions have said

1. Made sure system was up to date 2. Lowered hardware and flash acceleration 3. changed firefox settings 4. have done numerous re-installs of firefox and flash

In previous versions of FF I was able to highlight a word or words and then right click, the context menu had a "Search the internet using these words" option. Which made searching so much easier. How do I get that back and get rid of that monster right click menu?

TIA

3 days ago I was trying to watch videos on youtube and i kept getting adobe flash player crash error. i went ahead and updated to firefox 20.0.1 and i updated to flash player 11.7. still getting the error. Ive clean installed both since. I've reverted to older versions even the 10.3 listed on Firefox Troubleshooting guide. Nothing seems to work. I cannot watch any video period on any website that i've tried. Ive ran Malwarebytes and virus scans both with latest definitions and all is clean. Now firefox just crashed as i was writing this. weird. some assistance would be appreciated. Thanks

Since I've upgraded to Firefox 19.x, font rendering has been completely broken. Fonts are all messed up, distorted, etc...

See here: https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2013-03-07-20-12-39-1f0313.png

I've read through many suggestions about changing options in about:config, and various other settings, but nothing seems to work.

The browser is totally useless like this.

Any help on how to fix the font issue would be greatly appreciated!

There is a lot of discussion on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812695 about the right workaround or how to apply it. I'm starting this forum thread to move the discussion.

From the bug the current workarounds are:

• in about:config set gfx.direct2d.disabled to true
• in about:config set gfx.content.azure.backends to cairo instead of direct2D
• Uninstall IE10 and update KB2670838

I turned on my notebook this morning to find Private Browsing on and Firefox reset to the default appearance. I can't find out how to turn this browsing feature off! Read the articles, looked at Community forum ... nada. Please help! I want my own Firefox back!

I was just auto-upgraded to Firefox 20.0, and what had been an orderly, cascading context menu is now a flat, broken menu that's so big it scrolls off the top and bottom of my screen. The cascading submenus have been crammed into the top layer, and many of those options are now broken. Furthermore, options/menus that had been, well, context-sensitive (that is, they only appeared in certain circumstances) are now always-on. For instance, right-clicking on a link gives me the link-related options I'd expect, but it also gives me irrelevant media-control (Play, Pause, etc.) and image-related (View, Reload, Copy location) options.

Greetings! I've downloaded a program and here was some virus, now i alway have this page http://searchiu.com/?affil=141 as a start page and i'm afraid of my security. Can you help to remove this virus and get back my start page? Thanks you!

After i updated to the latest flash player (11.7) I have problems with video streaming. The video plays but after a while the audio stops and the video will keep playing but will also stop after a few seconds. Is the new flash player update at fault?

Since two weeks my Firefox just keeps crashing. Sometimes during loading an website sometimes even if I did not do anything for several minutes. It started with version 20.0.0 and continues with 20.0.1. Disabling all extensions and plugins did not help. The crashes still occur in safe mode. Resetting Firefox did not help. Reinstalling neither. I scanned my computer with two different antivirus programs. All other applications work fine and I'm working the whole day on my computer in lots of different programs... It would be great if you can tell me more about the reason so I can use my favorite browser again, thank you!

Before, when I used to right click anything (whether it be to copy, get URL link, etc), the right click menu would be short with just a few options, like cut, copy, past, reload, view background information, etc.

but today, when i right clicked something, i keep on getting the annoyingly long right click menu that has many ridiculous options, such as "save snapshot as", play, pause, mute, unmute, show controls, hide controls, (and possibly over 20 more).

I do not like this and want my short right-click menu bar. How can I do so?

Most of the time FF 21 crashes directly after starting it.

- No matter if I restore tabs/session or not.

- If the program opens and I fill in an address in the address bar FF crashes as soon as I click "enter"

- FF crashes immediately when I click on a link (website or download)

- Deactivating Add-Ons didn't help

- Safe Mode crashes the same way

- Creating a new profile didn't help

- Using the "Reset" in "Troubleshooting" didn't do the trick

- Completely removing Adobe Flash and reinstalling latest version: no improvement

- Disabling HW acceleration: no change of problems

If I downgrade to 20.0.1 it works perfectly as it did in the last weeks. After the upgrade to 21 same problems. Downgrade again: all is working.

This applies to my desktop PC. On my notebook the upgrade from 20.0.1 to 21 worked flawlessly - and I am using the same add-ons on both machines. But as disbaling add-ons doesn't help this seems not to be the right direction anyway.

I've sent about 2 dozens of crash reports now using the integrated assistent. Hope this helps narrowing down the issue.

More and more frequently, when I open a web page, the text is distorted. If I place another window over the text or highlight it, the distortion disappears. If I scroll the web page, the distortion scrolls with the text.

I've attached an image. Does anyone know what this is or how I can fix it?
