My job is working on a website using Forefox, that website will promt a pop-up every 1 minute to give me a code. When the pop-up window appears, it'll display on top of all other windows and steals the focus. It's so annoying.
When i'm writing Word/Excel it causes mistyping, and that pop-up will minimize some full-screen application like Video Player/Games.
I've tried:
-Set working windows always on top - when i work with 5-10 programs a time it will be more annoyed.
-Change dom.disable_window_flip and browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground - NOT working.
I'm not sure if this problem come from Firefox or Windows's default setting for a new window pop-up.
Could anyone give me a solution for this case?
Thanks in advance
Running Win 8.1.
This problem is weird, I can't find anything about this happening with someone else.
Is there a way to disable the mouse driver somehow so that mouse still works or smth?
Using Logitech G700s.
Ok, I solved it. Turns out there was the problem with file browsing software Clover (adds tabs to windows file explorer). Anyways I disabled it's feature "Double click on folder margin to navigate up" from settings and the problem went away.
some of my icons disappeared, for example the whole Microsoft office icons, they disappeared in the start menu, programm and features and also on the desktop.,
what i've tried is , to go to the folder of the exe, and pin it to the taskbar this will also show up the icon for unknown exe. changing icon doesnt work for the shortcuts, its disabled.
then i made a new shortcut and put it on the desktop that will show up the original icon. so i can recreate the start menu and the desktop, but still the icons are missed in programm and features.
i also tried to delete the icon cache db a 100 times but that doesnt work.
has anybody a solution?
does somebody know where the icon references are stored in the registry. i dont know where to start
Rebuild the icon cache.
If that doesn't work look here for a quick and easy fix.

Photoshop CS2 always stay on top, even when I click another app from the windows taskbar (right of the start button).
It's completly annoying me. Always need minimized, click the other app, reclick again on photoshop, re-reminimized.
I only have 1 screen at work so I can't let photoshop on one screen and work with the other app on the other screen.
I look in all photoshop menu, find nothing
I googled the problem, and find a adobe page explain this problem is a "feature".
I only want photoshop cs2 work all other app on windows and loose focus, let new app appear on top.
Thank you.
I had this problem and somehow solved it. But my solution may be just as fickle as why the problem occurs in the first place. But here's what I did:
On the layers palette (F7) I clicked on the small arrow just below the close "X" button, on the right. Then I selected "Pallete Options"
Didn't change any options but just clicked OK.
Now the entire window remained on top, not just the palettes. So I restarted Photoshop and it seemed to fix the issue.
I found that if you open up "edit > preferences > Memory & Image Cache" and set your memory usage up then it will fix it. I am on a Windows 10.
See this post:

Go to Edit > Preferences > File Handling > Uncheck Enable Version Cue Workgroup File Management
I literally JUST found this on accident and fixed it after having issues with all my toolbars being hidden behind stuff, and not being able to minimize without clicking on the PS window first etc. Seems to have worked!

I am having same issue with CS2 on Windows 7 64 bit. To work around, I hit tab on keyboard when photoshop window is active, that makes all pallets invisible, then I can switch to any window I need to work on.
As per this article there seem to be issue with Microsoft update https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2142314
I am using Firebug with Firefox 3.6 on OSX 10.5.8. Since FF 3.6 there is a shortcut to activate fullscreen mode which is "shift" + "command" + "F". But it is the exact same shortcut of Firebug to launch "Display Element Information".
Since i never and don't really need fullscreen mode and use extensively the "Display Element Information" feature of firebug; i am trying to either change the firebug shortcut or disable the FF shortcut.
I tried finding something when accessing about:config but could not find anything relevant.
Does anybody has a solution or hack?
cheers
Change FireFox Shortcuts:
There is an extension called KeyConfig that allows you to change the keyboard shortcuts in FireFox. You can find it at the following URL:

Change FireBug Shortcuts*:
Open the FireBug Panel
Click the FireBug icon on the top left
Select "Customize Shortcuts"
Change the shortcuts you want then restart FireFox
*Note:
I am using FireBug 1.5
I am not sure if the option you want is in the list of shortcuts you need to change.
Hope this helps.
I think the shortcut you are referring to is actually part of the Web Developer plugin, not Firebug. Firebug has a simliar "Inspect Element" function that uses Ctrl-I.
If you don't want to install yet another plugin, just to change one shortcut, then you will have to change the Web Developer shortcut to something else.
I've tried overriding this behaviour using the OSX System Preferences, creating an Application-only shortcut to the menu item: Tools->Web Developer->CSS->View Style Information, but no dice. This plug-in, while one of the most useful that I've found, has always seemed kind of shoddy. It's rarely updated, and bugs seem to live on forever. It breaks every time FF is updated. etc etc. But I still love it.
Not sure which extension is causing this for you. Just checked Web Developer Toolbar and don't see Cmd-Shift-F anywhere.
One newer feature in Firebug is the Customize Keyboard Shortcuts preferences panel on the Firebug menu. Open Firebug, click on the Firebug bug icon menu in the top left of the panel and select Customize Keyboard Shortcuts from the menu that shows up. You'll likely need a restart for these changes to take effect.
Well, now i feel very stupid !!!!
Indeed it is a shortcut from the Web Dev Toolbar and not firebug. I used these 2 so much during a day of work that i forgot they are 2 separate add-ons.
I was able to change the shortcut via the "Options" menu of the Web Dev Toolbar.
And just in case someone changes a shortcut, remember to restart FF for the changes to take effect.
mea culpa.
But thank you every one for helping.
Case closed !
