When I do a search, either with yahoo or google...or whatever search engine...my first search is great...but if I try and change it and click on the search bar again (not the search bar with in my tool bar but with in the webpage) it wont let me click on it. Also when I'm in my yahoo mail I can't use the tabs (inbox, contact, new email) if I'm on an email and want to quick start another one...it wont let me switch back to the old email b/c its in a tab....if i'm on a web site that has a tab it wont let me use them...what is going on? 11.3 flash player wont upload and I have already disabled they realplayer download option. What is going on....I love firefox but I'm going to have to switch back to IE if this isn't fixed soon.

It seems that this is just an issue with Firefox on your computer. I don't have this problem so I'm sure it's correctable. It might be the fact that your running an older version of Flash Player. When you say that Flash Player won't upload I'm not sure what you mean. When we say upload we usually mean sending a file to a web server.

Well the new version of flash player 11.3.300.252 will not load on firefox...it did for IE and chrome but when I go to my plug-ins it still says adobe 10.1.3.23

You might not now it but there are different versions of Flash Player for each browser. The version for IE is different then the one for Firefox. Since this is the case can you browse to http://www.adobe.com/go/EN_US-H-GET-FLASH and download Flash using Firefox then follow the instructions to install it? Let me know if this helps.

That is the very site I have gone too and download over 4 times...and it says it is updated when it finished installing but still the issue continue. I really need my email to work the most...I can't even click on the search bar within my email to search for a specific email...and I use this function a lot. I know its not my yahoo email either b/c I can get on IE and it works fine.

That's strange. It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is changing your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal? Also have you tried uninstalling & re-installing flash? If you need help un-installing Flash see http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html. You also could try safe mode.
