my firefox 17.0.1 on Win 7 64 bit SP1 still crashes when I download ANY type of file EVEN browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone is false ... WHY ???

If that plugin isn't working properly then its developer needs to fix this via an update.

    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Firefox crashes when there is any extension enabled

    firefox crashes since 13 and still crashes in 14.
    The only thing you need to do is open firefox, then wait, it usually crashes in less than 30s, but sometime it won't crash and I don't know why.
    I try to disable all extensions and enable them one by one, but I find firefox crashes even when I click "enable"(there is nothing enabled yet when I click it)

  • Win 7 Pro 64-bit / DW CS5 crashes when opening files with external links

    open any html, php, etc with a link to an external file - could be any type
    dw cs5 crashes
    this is on a fresh, clean install of win 7 and cs5 suite. hard drive was wiped clean before installing
    Has anyone experienced this issue also?
    This is extremely annoying...  why I should pay for software that doesn't work?

    "Enable Related Files" isn't the fix for this issue. It's slightly different - I wanted to still load related files, but only the ones local to the file I was editing.
    The fix was to use DW's Resolve To IP Address feature. It required adding a registry value - it fixed the issue straight away

  • Firefox crashes when opening PDF, Word and other files

    Recently, Firefox stopped being able to open PDF files within the Firefox program. It crashes whether one tries to have it open the file or just download it. The same occurs when trying to open a Word doc. It does this in safe mode too. Since I am studying for a college degree and use these features a lot, I've had to stop using Firefox. This is a problem, because my university uses Firefox for its classes and other programs aren't as compatible. I've tried EVERYTHING suggested on line, both in Firefox help pages and in user pages. Nothing works.

    Fix the [http://browser.iyogi.com/firefox/firefox-not-opening-pdf.html '''PDF not opening in Mozilla Firefox'''] issue by reinstalling Adobe Reader. You need to uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it to get the issue fixed. It is important to uninstall all versions of Adobe Reader that you may have in your system. Also, take care of installing the latest Adobe Reader for the browser.

  • Since few days, Firefox crashes when trying to open local php files - without using localhost . It shoudn't. I tried to unsinstall everything and reinstall. But it didn't work. I use a mac osX 10..6

    I'm a beginner web developper. When I try to open php files, Firefox crashes and open millons of new firefox windows . I have no choice other than forcing Firefox to quit. When I use the localhost adress, it's Ok. But because I usually open the file directly from a folder in my HDD, (it's faster to dothis way) transforming it after with the localhost/~username/file ... it' s quite irritant.

    Hi.
    I tried logging in as a different user in the OS and that didn't work.
    Do you mean that Safari crashed there as well?
    If so, that's an indication that the startup disk needs repairing.

  • Firefox crashes when I load any youtube video on the latest version, it not only crashes firefox but my whole computer goes blank and I have to restart, why is this?

    Backstory: There are two possible events that could be causing this
    1: At some point I may have followed a ''Tinyurl' link that consquently lead me to a youtube video, to which youtube worked perfectly fine before hand, and this is where i witnessed the first crash. Theories into whether this link, previously stated, may have done something to my system have been thought about, but the fact that youtube still works on the latest Microsoft Internet Explorer seems to present the idea of a virus or an error redundant. I own the latest Macfee antivirus software and Ccleaner(running the registry check) and have run them complete with disc defragment and scan disc error recovery along with an additional malware scanner. Nothing seems to have come up on anything. After doing all this, my last resort was System restore and this seemed to solve the problem, mainly because i had an earlier version of firefox. therefore i resisted updating for aslong as possible whenever it told me to update. but the otherday i thought i'd risk it again thinking it may have been a problem alot of people have been having and it would of been fixed, but sadly it hasn't. this lead me to google the problem and was advised to start firefox on 'safe mode' as there may have been a confliction between add ons or plugins with youtube or some thing like that, but sadly that hasn't worked either. The plugins i had installed with it were the ones firefox has told me to get, or recommended and the only two addons i had on firefox was Adblock plus (fanboy subscrip) and Noscript.
    Details of what actually happens: go to a youtube link, video loads for about 2 seconds(both video and audio), screen freezes, and flashes maybe once with some small lines across the bottom half of the screen horizontally towards the right corner, then the screen goes blank and makes my laptop dorment, but still running, thus I restart my system.
    Sadly now when I system restore there isn't a point far back enough before this problem. So its either i downgrade(which seems to be the only option) or simply stop using firefox, as internet explorer works perfectly fine. however running firefox with no scrip and adblock plus is the ideal browser customisation, which is why this is rather annoying.
    so number 1 was the tinyurl theory and i must admit i was abit foolish to follow such a random link, but whats happened has happened.
    2: basically there is a major disfunction with the latest firefox that has to with the addons i have included onto firefox and this seems to be causing a terrible effect on my system.
    in a nutshell: firefox worked perfectly before upgrading to the new firefox and before i followed this link, the rest of my system is completely normal and virus and error free or so it says, Other browsers seem to work also. safe mode does not cure the problem.
    Running on a customised Dell laptop, which is pretty midrange-toprange and hasn't been active long, so it has the general HD video card thats included in all Studio 15 Dell laptops.
    any help appreciated.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Firefox crashes when I try to attach a file. Seems related to second problem, receive error messages when opening a pdf in adobe (which I've reinstalled twice)

    Crash report:
    bp-74bcae4f-7091-4121-a809-5d0a12140616 is the crash report.
    I have a Toshiba.
    When I open my email (gmail, school email) and try to attach a file, firefox immediately crashes and gives me two error messages. first one is a WerFault, i think. I don't know if that's relevant.
    Apart from these crashes in Firefox, I am also having the same problem when trying to view or open a pdf in adobe reader, or even open adobe reader itself. It won't try to open, I just receive the error messages. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it two times now. I did this thing suggested online where you go into the control panel and look at all your plugins. Then, "repair" adobe reader - pretty sure it's just a button that says repair. that didn't do anything, of course I also could have done something wrong.
    I realize this could be a problem unrelated to Firefox, but I'm doing what I can before I take my laptop in.
    Please save me.

    Ok two things based on the crash report and the steps you took right before the crash:
    # Try to disable scrolling acceleration and restart Firefox. Does it continue to crash?
    # Try Safe Mode and do the same task as above with email and the pdf [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    # Also pdf.js may be helpful to read pdfs in the meantime. You can change the default reader in the Preferences/Options > Application menu of Firefox.
    # Try to clear out the downloads folder and update flash to version 14 (that should do it)
    IF it crashes again please also provide the new crash signatures and we can take a look :-) Sorry for the crashing :-(

  • Firefox crashes when tryin to load a PDF file with Adobe 8

    I've gotten this particular core a few times now and I have talked to firefox support. They pointed me to Adobe as they said the core points to a problem with adobe reader / acrobat.

    The PDF auto loads onto our website after being uploaded by SFTP to a shared directory, the latest file is always displayed. Viewing the PDF with adobe or full page works fine. Viewing the PDF within our website is when the crash occurs. I was hoping something in the core would point to the specific reason or what was at fault. I have done many configuration tests up to this point.

  • I am unable to download any type of video. All types of downloader cause my computer to become un-responsive & freeze. This only happens on Firefox. Internet explorer has no problems. Can someone help?

    This problem occured with every type of downloader plug-in or extension. I also get a warning saying V.Protect encountered a problem & needs to close. This all happened when I updated to Firefox 10.0.2 for Yahoo UK & Ireland yahoogb 1.9

    Can you undo the system restore?
    Note that using System Restore can cause your Firefox installation to get corrupted because not all files are restored (only files in a white-list), so be cautious with using System Restore.
    *You may lose data in the Firefox profile folder like .js and .ini files pr profiles.ini can be affected.
    *You may need to (re)install software that was affected.
    In case you need to reinstall Firefox then you need to delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling to make sure that all files get replaced.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) 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 and the plugin-container 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.

  • FireFox prefers Lucida Sans Demibold Roman over Lucida Sans Unicode when a fontstack contains several Lucida variations (even when "Demibold" is NOT included)

    According to http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Some%20text%20shows%20up%20bold%20after%20upgrade?s=bold&as=s
    "Words on websites could become bold or italic if your font is corrupt or a setting is changed."
    With FireFox 4, this can also happen if the font stack is
    "Lucida Sans, Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, Verdana, sans-serif"
    and Windows 7 only has Lucida Sans Demibold Roman and Lucida Sans Unicode (which is apparently not an uncommon situation).
    In this situation, FF4 apparently prefers the Demibold over the lighter alternatives.
    Other browsers (including earlier FireFox versions) seem to be smart enough to avoid the "Demibold" font.
