Hey guys, my firefox keeps hanging whenever i load a flash-played item. I've tried a lot of solutions but they all still do not solve the problem. Please help

This started off only very recently, perhaps less than 1 month ago and it's already starting to bother me. I have tried reinstalling, using flash-switcher, downloading Flash-player(non-ie), and a few others. Please help me asap, thanks a dozen.

Your More system details list shows that you have two Flash plugins installed.
# Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53
# Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102
You need to remove the older Flash 10.1 r53 version.<br />

Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

Solution below.
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Firefox has suddenly stopped connecting on one of three user accounts on the same computer. That account still connects with Safari - but not Firefox. A clean-install has not solved the problem. Help?

Three user accounts on the same computer all link to a single copy of Firefox 3.6.8 - but one of them has suddenly lost its ability to use the program. Firefox opens in that account, but it cannot connect to the Internet. 'Done' appears at the lower left of a blank Firefox page [it's set to load a blank page initially], as though a page had finished downloading ... but Firefox does not actually generate any Internet activityx.
Previously, the Firefox connection for this account was smooth and reliable. I haven't added, upgraded or downloaded any new programs, nor made any other computer changes in recent weeks or months.
Puzzlingly - that same account still connects successfully to the Internet via Safari. And the other accounts on the same computer continue to use Firefox with no problem - including a test user-account that I set up today to help troubleshoot the problem. The blockage is restricted solely to Firefox with that one user account.
Following your Support page instructions, I did a clean-install of Firefox 3.6.8, removing both the existing Firefox 3.6.8 and the Library/Application Support/Firefox folder. Going the extra mile, I checked all accounts to be certain that no Firefox folders remained in any of them - then emptied the Trash and restarted before installing a freshly downloaded 3.6.8. But blimey - the blockage still persists for that one user account.
Firefox shows no visible cookies that might influence the connection. [It's set to delete all cookies upon closing anyway.] And I see no obvious instructions in Mac's firewall or any software program to refuse access to Firefox. The computer is stand-alone, not networked. And in any case, Firefox works just fine in the two other user accounts.
Deleting the hobbled user account is not feasible. So what is causing this roadblock? Did I miss a step in the clean-install? How can that account resume using Firefox?
Thanks in advance for your advice.

If files already have been downloaded then remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You can also delete active-update.xml and possibly updates.xml (stores the update history).

Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

Internal error 500 keeps coming up when I open Firefox. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, but that did not solve the problem. How can I fix this error

a message of 500 internal error comes up when I open up Firefox and I cannot do anything. How can this problem be solved? I cannot use Firefox, so I have uninstalled it because it does in work on my computer, but it does work on my desktop and other laptop. This is a new computer, so I am not understanding why this problem is occurring. When I first installed Firefox on my new laptop it worked just fine, but for about a week now it will not work.

Which security software (firewall) do you have?
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

After the new Firefox undate this morning I can no longer play any of my online game on my laptop but they work on other computers. Why?

None of my online games work on my laptop. I updated Adobe Flash player but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I didn't see anything wrong with the old version and now there is definitely something wrong with this new version. Everything worked just fine last night and now none of it works. Why is that?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I was forced to update to the new version of firefox.

ive never had any problems with ap[ple products in the past... this is a first and a stupid problem if you ask me

I inadvetantly put a "Theme" in the background of my Firefox browser ("Personas"?) and would like to disable it but instructions on Firefox web site do not solve the problem?

I have no other details to provide except that the background of my Firefox page is ugly, distracting and I cannot get rid of it. Does Firefox have a customer service group that I can call for help. HELP.

You can uninstall your current Persona and revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Attempt to use attachment uploader has frozen ability to create new e-mail as "TO" command respond and resetting Firefox to default does not solve the problem

Previously, selecting "attach" worked fine. How do I undo the so-called better way to make attachments??

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

I have the iPhone 5C and have question about he Nike IPOD app. It keeps telling me to move around to set up the sensor to start timing my workout. I went on a 20 minute walk and it still did not set the sensor. Help is needed.

I have the IPHONE 5C and am having trouble with the app Nike + IPOD. I go to timed workouts and select 20 minutes and the select playlist and it give me the workout section to start my timed workout. It will say walk around to activate your sensor. Well, I walked 20 minutes last nigth & it it still was telling me to activate my sensor. I was able to still enjoy listening to the music I have on this phone, but frustrated with this silly voice telling me to walk around to activate my sensor.
Have anyone out there had this frustrating problem.??

I used to use an iPod Touch and the sensor on my non-Nike running shoes. I bought a little key pouch that fastened to my laces and stuck it in there. It worked find.
However, with an iPhone, you don't need a sensor. Download the Nike+ Running app from the App Store (or Runmeter or Endomondo or Runtastic). The phone has built in GPS and an accelerometer. It doesn't need the foot sensor like the iPod Touch. You can use any shoes you want. Or no shoes!

Firefox keeps hanging up and freezing. I get this message. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing--what a mess.

No matter how many times I open and close, firefox hangs up after surfing a few pages. When I look at task master, firefox is using up hundreds of thousands of kb, causing the processor to stall at 100%. I do not have this problem when surfing with IE. I have the latest version of firefox. I never had this problem with version 5. It keeps getting worse with each "update".

See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
Obviously firefox should not hang after surfing a few pages. I have Firefox installed on an XP including firefox 6.0.2 and do not have problems.

* [[Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources]]
* [[High memory usage]]
Have a read of the above linked articles. The first thing to do is to try to get firefox to behave more normally
#Use [[safe mode]]
#* but do not make changes when you have the window with a list of options just click continue
# if using safe mode does not solve the problem also
#* make sure you use the default theme
#* disable all pluggins
Note by keying in ''about:memory'' into the location bar you will get a report, which includes more info as you roll the mouse pointer over items, that should help indicate where all the memory is being used.

How do I prevent Firefox from locking up when I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu (resetting Firefox didn't solve the problem)?

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium OS on Dell XPS 420 system. Firefox locks up each time I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu. Resetting Firefox did NOT solve the problem. If, instead of using Firefox, I log on to a website using Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer, the "Save As" feature works fine, as it should. I would occasionally like to save a web page, using "Save As" while using Firefox, instead of copying the page to a Word Document, and then saving it.

After most recent update, Firefox keep hanging intermittently with "Not Responding".

After the most recent update, my Firefox browser begins to hang intermittently with "Not Responding". I have checked the extensions and plug-in like Java, all of them are the latest updated ones. Everytime I open a new site or click on links to load another page, it happens. Every single time.

'''is there a solution ''(temporary OR permanent)'' for this problem yet?'''
i tried '''EVERY possible alternative'''; even when opened in ''''''safe mode'''''' or when installed for the first time w| '''NO addons or ANYthing else''' but the '''original default settings''', still does the same thing.
mozilla people?? really?? no answer|feedback|suggestions, anything at all from u guys??
if it isnt a version (browser, OS, addons, etc) issue, what is it that separates us from the users not having the problem?
this is is very frustrating; h|e it's even more frustrating when there is no response from tech support. is it because there havent been enough people who have reported this same issue so there can be some interest & find a fix; OR is it that u dont know; OR that there is not & will not be any fix?
we cant continue being users if we cannot use it. it's really my favorite browser, but if it doesn't work & u guys dont have a fix for it, then users w| this same problem wont have any other option but to switch to a different browser permanently.
really mozilla??? nothing? a reply would be very nice...
