Firefox has been hanging on nearly every web page I go to, also it will not load any flash video, I have tried reinstalling plugins but this has not helped .

I have tried reinstalling plug ins, it would seem all of them are up to date, fire fox also hangs when I view pictures on facebook while still becoming unresponsive when opening almost any new page.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Firefox will not load any flash video, on any website.

    Hello, just recently firefox decided to stop loading flash video.
    Eg. Youtube, metacafe, etc.
    I tired uninstalling flash and reinstalling it, uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it, ive also tried scanning for viruses, and nothing has worked. Sometimes it will load the advertisement for youtube videos but thats it, after that it just stays black and the controls for the player still work as normal, but there is no video or audio.
    I've tried to install a different browser to see if that would make a difference and it did, i can view flash videos on chrome but the moment i go back to firefox, videos dont work anymore.

  • Why in the world would Apple make the track pad LESS useful in OS Lion?  I hate that I can't g back to the top of a web page with a singe swipe.  And of course all the other gestures are totally reversed.  IMHO, this was not an imporvement.

    No one here works for Apple.
    Go to System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & Zoom, and uncheck Scroll direction: Natural.

  • Hi im having difficulty with my iphone 4s its been on charge for a number of hours and continues to flash the apple logo but will not turn on i have tried to reset but it did not help

    hi i am having difficulty with my iphone 4s it has been on charge for a number of hours but is just flashing the apple logo continuously i have tried to reset but nothing seems to work can anyone help me please

    What is a hard reset?  There is nothing in any of Apple's documentation that refers to a hard reset.
    There's a reset, a restart, and a restore.
    Please explain EXACTLY what you did.

  • Any idea why a 3 month old new IPad won't turn on?  It has been charged today and was working perfectly last night while I used it to read a book.  I have tried both the sleep/wake button and the on/off button on the front.  Nothing is happening.

    Any idea why a 3 month old Ipad will not turn on?  It has been charged and I haved tried the sleep/mute button and the on/off button on the front.  Nothing is
    happening.  It was working fine last nigh?

    1. Hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together
    2. For 10 to 15 seconds
    3. Until you see the Apple logo
    4. Ignore the red slider
    Note: Repeat it if it doesn't work the first time

  • I have an iPhone 4 and tried to update to iOS6 but received an error message when trying to restore.  The phone is no longer recognised on iTunes (using my Windows PC).  I have reinstalled iTunes but this has not worked.  What can I do??

    I have followed the instructions on the apple support pages and still cannot get my phone to work.  It continues to show the iTunes USB picture and is not recognised on my iTunes on the windows PC.  When I connect the phone to my iMac it shows no data and says I can restore to factory setting.  However if I do this will all my data be erased?  How do I get my phone and data back?  I have saved most of the photos that were on the phone but all my contact details and messages are stored and I really need to get them back!  Would have limited memory on the phone when trying to update caused this problem?

    Thanks.  I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
    Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
    Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
    Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
    It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
    Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data.  Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
    Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

  • Worst webbrowser in the history of web browsers. I cannot get FF to load any images. I have tried everything. Help or no longer using this browser.

    FF just opens a black text type of webpage. Just Fing horrible. Everyone says to use you, but it's just a nightmare. Shitty. Sorry, all I seem to do Is F with browsers and anything related to FF. I stopped using FF 8 years ago and it seems as I was correct! JUNK! Can someone help me regarding just to get images from the GD internet to load? Simple, shouldn't have to go through a 45 step process to get this to work. Help or not. Not impressed at all.

    Google Chrome comes with its own Flash plugin and can play mp4 files natively.
    Firefox doesn't support playing MP4 files and you would need a Flash player anyway with type="application/x-shockwave-flash" to play such a file.

  • I recently switched from iphone to samsung galaxy s5 and am not receiving messages.  I have tried countless fixes but nothing has worked!

    I have tired deactiving my device from icloud online, I have had my contacts delete me and re-add me as a contact.  I have also had them try deleting our entire message thread and starting a new one.  I also had them hold down message and select "send as regular text" 3-5 times.  I tried texting stop to some number  I found in another discussion thread. NOTHING HAS WORKED.  I called Apple support who claims they cannot help me.  My service provider just refers me to apple.  And now, some of my contacts no longer have the option to "send as regular text" when they hold down the messges to me!  Please, please help me!

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for the response. I contacted Apple at the link you listed and spoke with a representative. We walked through the steps I took in my first post above to ensure I had done them correctly. He didn't offer any new suggestions other than making sure my contacts turn on their MMS before texting me.
    Unfortunately that is not working either. I tested this with several friends and I am still not receiving their messages. They get a response immediately upon texting me that says the message was undeliverable. They are able to receive my messages, I just don't get theirs.
    Any other ideas?
    It's mind boggling that Apple has made this such a difficult transition. There should not be repurcussions for choosing to discontinue the use of their product. The only other thing I can think to do is have my service provider change my phone number... what a nightmare.

  • I-photo has been working brilliantly until after my last update. Now it automatically closes after 10 seconds. The warning box appears but offers no solution. I have reloaded the software, but this has made no difference. Has anyone else experienced this

    I am having problems with i-photo. It automatically closes after 10 seconds. the warning box gives no guidance. Anyone else had this problem?

    What "warning box"?
    Assuming you're using iPhoto 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards
    TD

  • For some reason both Firefox and Thunderbird says my profile is missing and the apps won't load. Please help...I have tried reloading FF but it did not help.

    It just started today....but I can't get in to either Firefox or Thunderbird. Says my profile is missing or lost. That is the total message. I did not know I had a profile or do I know how to look for it. It is odd both apps failed at the same time.
    Thanks
    Bob

    I'm sorry you're expierencing this problem. Open the Profile Manager by following the directions in the article, [[Managing profiles]]. If a profile shows up, select it and hit start Firefox.
    If no profiles show up, you need to follow the direction on the same article to set up a new profile. Although, I am not sure if it is possible to recover your old profile.
