Anyone else find that Firefox v. 26 is incredibly slow (worse than IE)?

I have disabled and restarted then re-enabled hardware acceleration, reset Firefox, emptied cache and tried everything I can find or think of to no avail. This just became a problem since I updated to v. 26.0. Have never seen a version respond so poorly.

Typical answers from mozilla that the problems lie with extensions. I have one extension installed and it is disabled and FF 26 runs at a snails pace. A browser that excelled early on has now been boggled down and is no better than any of the others.

  • Does anyone else find that the new firefox 4 sucks? How do I get back the old one?

    I upgraded to the new firefox 4 and I HATE it... I tried to uninstall it, and lost all my bookmark tabs, and then I tried to install the old firefox but couldn't, it only allows me to use the new one, which is also slowing down my laptop big time! Has this happened to anyone else?

    I've not had any problems with Firefox 4 being slower, but I've never been so disappointed with a program in years. I went back to 3.6.16 and it's much more stable. I'm an attorney and use the Bankruptcy Court websites daily--literally, hourly--and 4 crashes on them repeatedly, will not download mailing matrices, will not print claims registers, or literally do ANYTHING as well as 3.6 did. If a browser won't do that, then it's worthless to me. We HAVE to have stable programs, and everything now in the Federal courts nationwide has to be electronic filing. I've tried all the tricks I know (and I've been a computer user and builder ever since Win 3.1) and nothing saved it. I finally uninstalled 4, did NOT offload my user profiles, and they all picked up again on 3.6.16. I don't plan on going back to 4--ever.

  • Anyone else finding that the keyword editor doesn't refresh properly upon changes

    When I have a clip with multiple keywords and I want to delete one of the keywords in the keyword editor, I find that the editor window refreshes incorrectly. The results are accurate but the editor appears to erase the wrong keyword.   Not the worst bug, but annoying.  It reminds we of the refresh problems in the browser when applying custom names 10.1.

    but any time I do a find for a certain keyword,
    Try the find menu (edit/find or cmd+F). In Source choose your main folder all your files are in. Criteria choose keyword and fill in one of the keywords you want.
    Be sure to have a checkmark in fornt of the options 'Include all subfolders' and 'include Non indexed files'.
    Hit find and let Bridge do it's searching. This first time may take a bit long but now Bridge starts indexing all files. After this you should be able to use the option for finding keywords as normal.

  • Is anyone else finding that the acceloromiter does not seem to work in some aps with iOS7

    Have recently (as most would have) upgraded to iOS7 on my iPad and iPhone, love it but I am find a few of my apps like eBay and remote do not rotate to landscape naymore. any one else with  this issue and is there a fix?

    As hunter9000 pointed out above, your code has syntax errors; are you even able to compile this?
    The braces "{" and "}" delimit classes, methods, and blocks ( including if/ while/ for etc ).
    Methods must be within classes i.e. after the opening brace and before the closing brace of a class.
    Similarly, statements and other blocks must be within the method.
    In your code, you have blocks simply floating about in your class, NOT allowed. They must be in a method. This is why proper indentation is important, anyone would be able to catch problem like this with just a quick glance.
    public void enter()
        {//opening brace for the enter method
            numberOfVisitors = numberOfVisitors + 1; //This takes the number of visitors adds it to itself and then adds 1
            totalFees = totalFees + fee; //This takes the fees of the day adds it to itself and then adds 12
    //    } //NO! You're closing the method too early. More content follows.
    //    { NO! You're making an unecessary block here
    //, reducing readability and potentially putting variables out of scope
            if(numberOfVisitors == 10)
            { //If the number of visitors = 10 then it should set isFull = True
              //opening brace for your if block
                isFull = true;
            }  //close the if block
    //        {//NO! again, unecessary block
            if (isFull)
            { //Once it is true the string should be shown to say that know more people can enter.
                System.out.println("The Exibition is currently full");
    //} extra brace from earlier
    }//close the methodClearer now?

  • HT1451 did anyone else find that an .itl or .xml file had to be present in order to open/ find the itunes library

    this is the correction to the article. REPLACE .itl and .xml files . itunes will not open without them. .itl especially
    long story of broken Macbook Pros. new one and the external drive had the only copy of iTunes. i had music on various drives so i started a new itunes library and imported all the music i could find, including from the 'only copy'. problem: a hundred playlists in painstaking order not there.
    followed the instructions from this article. except. when itunes opens, it has to have the .itl and .xml file present.
    i still had a spare copy of "only copy" so i replaced the NEW iTunes composite library's .itl and .xml files with the ones from 'only copy'. opened it up and there were all my playlists. now i may have to re-import music from various and tweak the playlists. but i don't have to RE-DO THEM. 

    CB many thanks!
    woke up today with the exact same problem... iMac locked up while playing a video podcast off my NAS
    (it was happily playing the audio even though the mouse was frozen)
    couldnt get permission control of my Library.itl so found your post,
    turned off the iTunes Server in my Synology (dont use it like that anyway) and rebooted the NAS.
    iTunes immediatley launched WITHOUT the lock, performed its repair check and up it came!
    THANK-YOU
    ...oddly I notice that I dont have permissions to ANY of my directorys/files,
    guess 'cause they are set in the Synology Shared Folder permissions?
    All are listed in the finder as:
    (unknown) R&W
    everyone NO ACCESS

     I had exactly the same problem, but appear to have solved it
    Not sure what make/model NAS you have, but if it has an iTunes Server type service on it, turn it off. This won't delete your music folder, don't worry, but it will stop your NAS thinking it deserves exclusive access to the library files. Then reboot your NAS and voila, you can do what you like with the files.
    You can turn the iTunes service back on whenever you've finished doing what you need to do.
    Hope that helps.

  • Anyone else find that Speed Dial fails to work after reinstalling version 3.6?

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/810782''
    Since I cannot go without the McAfee Site advisor, I ran a system restore. THAT did not work, Firefox won't start. So, I reinstalled 3.6. That got Site Advisor to work again, only to lose the MOST important add on I had Speed Dial. Its says it is there, and I can tell it what options to use, but IT WILL NO LONGER WORK WITH FIREFOX. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the add on. THAT DID NOT WORK. Stupidest thing I ever did was trust this UPDATE! It has RUINED my browser's BEST add ons.

    mkarr, I recommend to use the PC Suite because it creates a modem once which can be re-used. Did that help?

  • TS2972 I have tried all of these suggestions and still nothing happens after I turn on Home Sharing on both computers. PLEASE HELP!!!! And why does Apple make you pay for customer service? Does anyone else find that totally irrational?

    Can anyone explain why I can't get Home Sharing to work? I've tried every suggestion I can find and nothing works.

    Scan the Support Community sites. Apple TV losing connection is prevalent. The many postings point out the problem occurs with Apple TV1,2and 3; with different brands of router including Airport Extreme; from current and past versions of iTunes; after varying periods of working well.....minutes, hours, days; losing connection with Home Sharing and loosing Airplay; whether the router and Apple TV are in same room or separated by distance; after trying innumerable posted 'fixes'; after exchanging for a new Apple TV.
    Readers, please don't post a fix until you check it works for atleast a week.

  • After upgrade on OS and Safari 7.1 I can no longer do 2 finger scrolling.  Anyone else find this bug in upgrade?

    After upgrade to 10.95 OS and Safari 7.1 I can no longer do 2 finger scrolling.  Anyone else find this bug in upgrade?  If so, ideas on how to fix it?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Anyone else finding it impossible to get iCloud to work? My software is up to date on my three Apple devices, I'm logged in to my account - and nothing synchs. Any ideas??

    Anyone else finding it impossible to get iCloud to work? My software is up to date, I'm looged in to my account but nothing synchs across my Mac Mini, Mac Air and iphone 4s. I've tried all the trouble shooting solutions without success. Any ideas out there? 

    Hi
    My iCloud works perfectly across my MBA, iPhone 4, iPad Mini etc.  I did find it easier when starting to set things up to start with one item to sync. 
    I started with Reminders and went through all the General settinsg as well as Reimnder specific settings.  Then just parlayed that process into each app I wanted to sync.
    Happy to help out if you want to get started.
    Iphone
    1.  Settings
    2.  Icloud (ensure your apple id is correct)
    3.  Reminders = on
    MBA (connected to the Net through wireless)
    1.  Settings
    2.  Icloud (ensure apple id id corect and the same as on your iphone)
    3.  Calendars and Reminders = On
    Type a new reminder on your MBA...
         -  your iphone should be updated.  My iphone updated in less than 1 sec after I keyed it into my MBA
    Let me know if this works

  • HT1338 Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install.  Anyone else have that problem?  How do i solve?  Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

    Apple sent me a disc for Snow Leapord so I could upgrade to Lion, but the disc won't install.  Anyone else have that problem?  How do i solve?  Can't move to I cloud until it is done.

    Hold c and reboot off the 10.6 disk, run the installer.
    If the machine your upgrading is the 2006, I'd highly advise you stay on 10.6.8
    It's a 5 year old machine, you're in the last life stages of that machine and 10.7 will push it right over the edge.
    10.6 is a GOOD upgrade for that machine, faster than 10.7 or 10.5.
    And 10.6 will run your 10.5 software, 10.7 will not.
    Get iCloud with a new 10.8 machine coming out after this summer, seriously.
    Your machine is too old to bother with Lion.
    Or else you can learn yourself and use this link to get back to Snow, good luck finding your 10.5 programs.
    How to revert your Mac to Snow Leopard

  • Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to sync my new iPad. Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook? I'm angry!

    Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 with Leopard and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard so that my system can download the relevant iTunes upgrade to sync my new iPad and get my audiobooks (which don't appear anywhere on the device right now). Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook and Snow Leopard costs more also? I don't have financial resources to pay for all the new memory requirement and related upgrades they say I need just to sync my iPad with my purchases.

    Thanks for the reply but I already knew this. $20 for Snow Leopard which asks for 5gb free memory. I can only see that I have 4 gb (which I feel is rather a pathetic amount of available memory for any computer). To upgrade this computer's memory will cost another fee (I haven't researched this yet but gather it's more than $20). Then of course I could also be told that the OSX Mackbook Pro that I have can't be memory upgraded - which means I'm being told to buy a new computer - hence my very frustrated last email. I have been given a lovely iPad 2 as a present and now can't sync at all with anything because of this ongoing upgrade nightmare. How on earth am I going to be able to sync my movies, audiobooks etc to this new device??

    My sister had a problem with call volume being too low on the iPhone 5S.  Is the iPhone 6 louder?  Is anyone else feeling that call volume on iPhone 5S isn't loud enough?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?
