Untii now the keyboard shortcut to top of page was control+home and to end was control+end. Now I am running Windows 8.1 and Firefox Beta neither of these work. Neither does control++ or control+0. (They did not work before I upgraded Firefox while I was using W8.1). Is there any keyboard shortcut to get immediately to top and to end?

Thank you for your reply. That was not the solution because my Sony Vaio (SVF15N...) is only a few days old. The keyboard shortcuts(?) are slightly different e.g. and the 'home' is on the same key as the 'go to left arrow' Also I had the same problem on Chrome as well.

I have found the solution - here it is in case anyone else needs it.

'Go to top' is Function+home; to end is function+end; to end of line is function+rt pointing arrow; to beginning of line is function+left pointing arrow. Enlarge is control++ (that seems to work now).

Home and End without the Ctrl key should be sufficient to go to the top and bottom of a page.
You only need the Ctrl key if you are in a text area.

Do you otherwise have problems with scrolling a page?

Does the Ctrl key work otherwise?


Did you try a new profile?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem
