After upgrading to firefox7, the browser slows after about 2 hours, requiring a reboot

I have comcast for an internet provider. MSN internet explorer is not slowed at the time Firefox7 slows to a crawl, so I think it has to do with your update. Firefox7 is my primary server.
Thanks,
FT

Is the browser freezing or is browsing speed just slow?
If freezing see http://blog.bonardo.net/2011/09/30/is-your-firefor-freezing-at-regular-intervals
If browsing is slow, run a speed test next time it happens and report back (http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/)

  • After upgrading to Lion, the Finder will increase the virtual memory while using external HD

    after upgrading to Lion, the Finder will increase the "virtual memory size" while using external HD. I check it using Activity Monitor and found that "Finder" wll increase the "Virtual Memory Size" and "Private Memory Size". and then after a while. the system told me my HD is full and hanging there.
    My External HD is 1TB. and I have installed new version Paragon NTFS for Mac V.9.01. I am not sure it is related or not.
    but I attached my external HD. the "Finder" will start to increase the "Virtual Memory Size".
    please help out this case and solve this issue.
    thank you !!!

    The one has nothing to do with the other. Virtual memory size and Private memory size are used by developers to analyze their software. it has nothing to do with anything related to the user.

  • After upgrading to Lion the bookmarks in Preview returns error message.

    After upgrading to Lion the bookmarks in Preview returns error message : The File "****" couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it. To change the perimssion, select the item in finder and Choose File info.  I have bookmarked plenty of files in Preview.  How to overcome this error message???

    Doesn't work Steve. I think it is an issue with Preview being sandboxed (check the sandbox column in Activity Monitor: Preview = Yes). Sandboxed apps restrict file access to those the user has explicitly selected. My theory is that this causes the unfortunate side effect of bookmarked or linked PDFs not working. A simple test: open a file with bookmarks, manually open the bookmarked file and then select the bookmark in the first file - it should open with no complaints about permissions (which leads to a weak workaround: open all the PDFs you intend to work with!).

  • Why does Firefox keep me logged into websites after closing and reopening the browser?

    As of today, Firefox has been behaving differently. Namely, when I close Firefox and reopen, I am still logged in to email and other sites. I have all of my privacy settings checked, such as clear history, offline data, form history, etc etc so that they all will be deleted upon closing but this has no effect. Can someone provide insight as to why this is happening and how I can correct it? Before today, after closing and reopening the browser I was required to log in to any sites requiring UN and PW.
    I have rechecked all history deletion options to make sure all the appropriate ones were selected. Yesterday, I noticed inbox.com and a program called 24x7 Help were installed on the computer, without my knowledge. I promptly uninstalled them,but I'm not sure if they could somehow be responsible for the odd behavior.

    Such a behavior indicates that you keep the cookie(s) that verify that you are logged on to a web server.
    Are you using session restore to open those tabs automatically?
    * Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
    You can set the <b>browser.sessionstore.privacy_level</b> pref to 2 (never) or 1 (non-HTTPS, default in Firefox 3 versions) on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable saving cookies via session restore.
    You can change the browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred pref that is used when you do not reopen the previous session automatically via "Show my windows and tabs from last time".

  • After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
    Step 1
    When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
    Step 2
    Check that the keychain is working.
    Step 3
    Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

  • After upgrading to Mac OS Lion, even after installing Java manually, some web pages don't download and appear blank whereas Firefox works

    After upgrading to Mac OS Lion, even after installing Java manually, some web pages don't download and appear blank whereas Firefox and Opera work. Can someone help?

    Might be a third party Safari addon that was compatible with Snow Leopard but not Lion that's preventing pages to load. That add on may not have any effect on the other browsers, just Safari.
    Read here  >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Also, if you have Little Snitch or Peer Guardian or anti virus sofware installed on your Mac, that might prevent pages to load also.

  • TS2518 My RAW (nikon .NEF) files changing to a dull, darker version of themselves after selecting them for the first time after import.

    My RAW (nikon .NEF) files are literally changing to a dull, darker version of themselves after selecting them for the first time after import. I.e. The correct photo (light/color/etc) seems to be there and then a second later the photo changes. It's almost like it's showing a quick enhanced version then back to basic raw image. Started within last two updates.
    Is there a fix or is this the straw that forces a switch to Lightroom?

    Just recall that Aperture (or any other 3rd party raw converter) has NO information about the JPEG preview and how it was made.  That information is camera-vendor proprietary.
    Also note that there are like 6 "picture styles" in camera and this change you're seeing is entirely dependent on how you have them set.  If you have your camera set to "vivid" or something you'll see more of a change than if your on-camera is set to "faithful."
    That said, people here ALSO complain that Aperture's initial renders are TOO vivid, the exact opposite of your complaint, so you can't please everybody (in some cases, it seems you can't please ANYBODY ;-)
    Aperture provides a starting point.  Again, if you don't like it, you can tell Aperture to go with a "punchier" interpretation at its first render.  In the import dialog, try setting Aperture to use the "auto enhance" preset which is built in.  Aperture will add a little vibrancy adjustment, and it will add a curve, which will greatly add punch to the image.  If you want adjustments in a different direction, you can create a preset and set it at import.
    The only thing Aperture CANNOT do is what you're asking, which is "take the JPEG that my camera vendor generates through some voodoo and try and render the raw file just like that."  It's, unfortunately, impossible to do.

  • After upgrading Firefox all the icons of all my bookmarks disappear.

    After upgrading next version of Firefox all my bookmarks have lost their icons. To restore an icon I have to click on that bookmark and load a web pade again. That brings back an icon.
    But I have so many icons that I can't just go through all of them.
    I appriciate any help on this matter.
    My regards,
    Alexei Kouznetsov

    Hi alexeiuk,
    There was an issue with Firefox 9 that caused this type of behavior. It has been fixed in Firefox 10 though. You might want to try the Firefox 9 version of [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9 this article] to see if the steps work for you.
    You could also try an add-on to customize your favicons:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/favicon-picker-2/
    Cor-el offers some useful tips as well:
    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • After upgrading to CF10, the selected row of my cfgrid is no longer passed on form post.

    I have a cfform which contains a cfgrid and prior to the 9 to 10 update, upon submission of the cfform, the selected row of the grid was passed/posted to my form action page as:
    __CFGRID__gridForm__renewalGrid
    This contained all the data from the selected row, I.e.:
    __CFGRID__COLUMN__=PROJECTID; __CFGRID__DATA__=T01081002AP; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=APPLICATIONS; __CFGRID__DATA__=PQFD; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=OWNERUID; __CFGRID__DATA__=HT2008; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=TEAM; __CFGRID__DATA__=Roberts; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=ROLE; __CFGRID__DATA__=AASBOAPMX; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=REGION; __CFGRID__DATA__=Southwest; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=EXISTING; __CFGRID__DATA__=K8045F; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=SOD; __CFGRID__DATA__=0; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=INITIALEMAILDATE; __CFGRID__DATA__=01/28/2013; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=MESSAGEDATE; __CFGRID__DATA__=; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=SECONDEMAILDATE; __CFGRID__DATA__=; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=ESCALATIONDATE; __CFGRID__DATA__=; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=COMPLETEDBY; __CFGRID__DATA__=TH2878; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=COMPLETIONDATE; __CFGRID__DATA__=02/06/2013; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=MONTHPULLED; __CFGRID__DATA__=Jan2013; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=TOTALITEMS; __CFGRID__DATA__=2; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=RELIEVINGPSA; __CFGRID__DATA__=; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=MODIFIEDBYTS; __CFGRID__DATA__=02/06/2013; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=MODIFIEDBY; __CFGRID__DATA__=T228Y8; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=CREATEDBY; __CFGRID__DATA__=KV3M36; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=CREATEDTS; __CFGRID__DATA__=01/28/2013; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=NEWSA; __CFGRID__DATA__=; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=DELEGATESTATUSNOTE; __CFGRID__DATA__=Access; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=STATUS; __CFGRID__DATA__=Completed; __CFGRID__COLUMN__=DATATYPE; __CFGRID__DATA__=Appl New
    After upgrading to CF10, and with no changes to the code, performing this same process, __CFGRID__gridForm__renewalGrid is still passed in the form scope to my action page, but now it is empty.
    I have not yet uninstalled CF9, so I brought it up on a different port, and I can run the same code as CF9 or CF10 and watch... in 9 the selected row is passed, in 10 it is empty.
    Is this a bug? Is there a work around? Please help.

  • I am having trouble with my iphone5. I finally had SFR after 2 hours or more waiting to switch the service of the sim card. The phone worked finally but after upgrading my itunes, the iphone 5 will not even let me sign in nor give password.

    I was so happy to receive my iphone5 today but, happiness turned into frustration. The new sim card was unlocked etc... The phone finally worked after 2 hrs or more and since I upgraded my itunes, the phone is blocked. It will only let me after being turned on unlock the phone. Once I get to ID apple and password, I can put it in but, then it says it has timed out. It also says I cannot connect to the server. What is going on???
    I am in France and there is no Apple Store open on Sunday, my phone service is closed as well.
    I hope somone can help me asap.
    Thanks

    I think you can solve your problems by removing your AppleID email address from BOTH the Messages setting on your iPhone and the iMessages settings on your Mac.
    On iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > iMessage > Dissabled
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > touch the "(i)" < touch "Remove This Email"
    On Mac:
    Open "Messages" application
    Click "Messages menu > Preferences
    Click "Accounts"
    Select your AppleID account
    Under the "You can be reached for messages at" settings, uncheck your AppleID email address and your phone number
    Then uncheck the "Enable this account" setting
    And lastly, ask all of your friends with iPhones to delete all iMessage conversations (blue bubbles) in their entirety.
    To test, send a friend a new text using their phone number (not their email address) and watch the color of the bubble.  If it's green then you are using SMS.

  • After Upgrading to iOS8, the iPhoto Events on my Mac wont sync with my iPad2.

    I recently updated to iOS8 on my iPad2.  During the update I got a message that the update failed and my iPad was stuck in Recovery Mode.  After Restoring my iPad2 and loading the most recent backup, I'm having issues with syncing all of my data back on the iPad.   I have the option selected to sync "Selected Events and Events from the past 12 months" to my iPad2.  After completing a sync, NONE of the events appear on my iPad.  The only photos that are available are in the Recent Photos's section.  I have tried syncing multiple times with no success.
    Any suggestions on how to get these events back on the iPad??
    Thank you for your time.

  • I can not open itunes properly after upgrading to IOS7, the app appear blank. Any suggestion?

    After upgrading my iphone 5 to IOS 7.0.2, itunes does open properly. The app appear almost blank as it is hang up condition. Does anyone have a suggestion to solve this?

    Hi,
    Close the App Store app and the iTunes app by pressing the Home button twice, and swiping them up.
    Then go to Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies and Data
    Open the apps again.
    I'd recommend as well to sign out and in using Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Hope that helps.

  • E61 crashes after using email or the browser via w...

    Hi,
    I have a problem; every time I use the browser or retrieve my mail via wlan, the phone reboots again.
    This only happend recently since I installed the latest firmware.
    When I for instance get my mail via a non WLAN (such as the GPRS network of my telco-provider) this doesn't happen.
    Has anyone got an Idea to solve this problem, without downgrading to a old firmware version?
    greetings from daniel de wit
    p.s. I don't know if this is related or not, but every time my E61 is rebooted I get the message that it could not finish it's installs. In the application manager I see multiple .sis files their status on unistalled. I don't know how to delete these files, or change a setting so that the phone doesn't try to install them.

  • Opening XML file in the browser window after generating it.

    hi,
    my application generates an XML document by retrieving data from Oracle DB. To view that XML file i have to manually open it by going to relavant directory. I want to open it through JSP.
    Please help me. any sample code would be appreciated.
    thank u.
    [email protected]

    Instead of writing the xml to a file write it to the response. That will send it back to the browser
    Or create a new JSP that opens the file and then writes it to the response.
    ServletContext sc = getServletContext();
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(sc.getRealPath("/") + "/xml.in"));
    String input = null;
    response.setContentType("text/xml");
    while ((input = d.readLine()) != null) { out.print(input); }
