After firefox 30 was installed this week the browser is slow but will not allow navigation away until finished

After firefox 30 was installed this week the browser is slow on sites with a large amount of information, data to set up,or many pictures or videos but will not allow navigation away until completely finished. Stop and back does not help it just continues the original site. Prior to release of 30 although slow it did allow navigation away or back.

Hello dexrek
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
'''also,''' in your system details we can see that you have in your[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows profile folder] a [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file User.js] file.
(The user.js file does not exist by default. If you create the file forget it, if not, delete the User.js file. Note that some programs create and write in the User.js file also).
thank you

  • I can no longer open my Comcast email when I launch from Firefox - it takes me to the email preview page but will not allow me to open the inbox . Does not happen with Internet Explorer.

    This started last month - when I go to my comcast account, I'm able to log on and view my account but can not open my email inbox. When I enter my user name and password, I'm taken to the "Email Preview" page so that I can see a partial view of the inbox but when I click on "View Entire Inbox" it jumps to a page showing that it's loading but goes right back to the preview page - I can't open any of the emails. This does not happen when I use Internet Explorer or Firefox on my older laptop.

    Did you find out what addon?

  • TS3212 im trying to reinstall but will not allow, due to an error 7,  itunes helper not installed correctly,i have tried several times, but will not allow me to install, i have used itunes for years but now cant use it, can you help

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • HT1491 My iPad only shows one song from a whole album I purchased on iTunes from my Macbook. iTunes only shows the album as purchased but will not allow me to download to iPad.

    I bought a full album on iTunes but the iTunes on my iPad mini will not allow me to download the full album. It shows that I have purchased the item but the purchase does not show up in my "Purchase" tab of iTunes on my iPad. I have updated my iPad completely. I have spent all weekend trying to fix this issue and I am so frustrated!!

    Thanks for the reply! I am using the same username for my Macbook and iPad but had to update my Apple ID to a current email. After I did that I updated my iPad to the current system and then my iTunes stopped recognizing my purchases. It wasn't until JUST NOW that my original Apple ID would allow my password to delete itself from the iPad. So the issue seems solved now. User error.
    Thank you!

  • Our apple desktop has hard time getting online after firefox was updated early August- the home pc has no problem, apple had no problem until firefox update.

    Home has two desktop computers. Modem and router are near PC in front of house. Apple desk top is in rear location of home. Early August, 2011, firefox was updated from front computer. Since then, apple computer has had inconsistent online experiences. Sometimes it is not possible to get online while front PC has not problem. This is annoying for the apple user. And the problem started only after updating Firefox. Please help! Thnx.

  • Get rid of the Walmart Gift Card Page!!!!! It ties up firefox, will not allow navigation away from page!

    I was doing a search and an add for a $1000 Walmart gift card pops up and won't allow you to quit firefox or close the page.
    Very annoying!!! Looks like a scam!!!!!

    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.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Also, make sure you update to Firefox 16 to stay secure. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

  • Have downloaded the latest PhotoShop CC but will not allow me to use Perspective Warp, why?

    I am trying to use the latest tutorial about Perpective Warp. I have done the most recent download update today but when I go to edit, the Perspective Warp option is grayed out.

    Photoshop grays thing out when some condition does not allow it to be use.  The condition could be related to the current state of the active document, or related to hardware and software.  Like Perspective Warp requires a GPU and may also require some amount of VRAM.  Photoshop CC requirements state Video Adapter with GPU and at least 512MB VRAM.  Check you  Photoshop Preferences.
    Photoshop menu Edit>Preferences>Performance  GPU must be seen and enabled.

  • The new version of iBooks will not open on my iPad(3gen) after it was installed. Reinstalling makes no difference. It opens then closes right away. Any fix??

    The new version of iBooks will not open on my iPad(3gen) after it was installed. Reinstalling makes no difference. It opens then closes right away. Any fix??
    Anybody else have this problem?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.
    You can manage your Apple ID here:

  • Using Mac OSX Install Disc 1, I am not able to get any further than the Partition tab.  It allows me to select my hard drive selection, but will not allow me to make any other selections.  Does anyone know their way around this obstacle?  Thanks!

    Hello, The Hatter, I read about the 'trick' of backing up, erasing, and restoring too, but I figured it would take longer than defragmenting the disk.
    But the defragmentation process has just finished! so I'm gonna try to run Boot Camp again soon!
    Thanks for your helpfulness, anyway.
    And P.S. I didn't clone my system onto the external drive, I just inserted the Mac OS X Install CD, rebooted holding down the "C" key, and installed a fresh Snow Leopard system onto the predetermined partition. I will use that in cases of emergency, when my main/internal system becomes unusable.

  • After Yosemite Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow Click

    Track pad moves the cursor but will NOT allow click after a period of usage. After Forced reboot track pad works fine for a few hours. This started within hours of installing Yosemite. Help, I am afraid I will lose a document during reboot. So far I have been lucky and have not lost data.
    MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2011)  SSD

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Any change on reboot?

  • My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?

    My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?
    Please don't tell me to retry, or re check my information because it is all correct, it basically says u cannot use thi account due to it being connected to another device... which is my old fault iphone, at the apple store.

    I have never before heard of cards being locked to a single device... but your case has shown me that it happens.
    If I am getting it right you try to log in to your account and it asks for billing information, and when you enter your card details it tells you that the card cannot be used. If that is the case then I'm sorry to say that my only suggestion would be to contact iTunes support directly; the contact form can be found in here: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

  • I have a Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it.  The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network.  This is a pre-intel computer.  Do I need an antennae?

    I have an Apple Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 GHz/6GB RAM/500GB HDD/Superdrive PowerPC Desktop and just bought an Airport Extreme card for it.  The card is recognized but will not see the in-house network.  This is a pre-intel computer.  Do I need an additional antennae?   If so, which one because my research is confusing me about what is supposed to work with this computer.

    Please check out the following Apple Support article to see if your particular Power Mac model supports an external Wi-Fi antenna.
