Firefox 6 still does this - Black - 08-19-2011




3 quits tonight on the 'home office' mac.

Windows still open missing their right 1/3 on the bedroom mac, only now they cut off just right of the reload button instead of just left.

Running 10.6.8 on both.

Six seems to use more memory and it did keep creeping up.

I ran and reran the last 10.6.8 combo updater to fix an unrelated problem and FF6 has behave better so far...

Disable add-ons and clear the history/caches.

Done. Same problem with new windows.

What do you mean by "Windows still open missing their right 1/3 on the bedroom mac..." ...?

New windows are very narrow? But there's nothing preventing you from resizing them to fill the screen?

...

What happens if you close all windows, open a new window, resize the new window, then quit and relaunch Firefox?

What happens if you disable JavaScript, close all windows, open a new window, resize the new window, then quit and relaunch Firefox?

Oh, Jesus, here we go again. Read the rest of the sentence you cut in half. Or better yet, please "help" somebody else.

You could take the time to construct a coherent description of the problem and respectfully accept the free tech support.

Or you could stew in your own misery.

Why'd you bother posting if you prefer the misery?

Running Firefox 6.0 under OS X 10.6.8 and I don't have any of those problems (nor did I under Firefox 5) must be an incompatible plugin or something's corrupt.
