Can I get the former version of Firefox back? The updated version stalls while browsing several times a day. I then have to close and restart.

Since updating Firefox, several times a day browsing will 'stall'. I have to close the browser and wait several minutes before I can restart it. Can I get the former version back? Please.

I get "Trial Expired" notice several times a day, even though I sign in and Licence the software

I have an annual Acrobat subscription, yet for some reason the subscription doesn't "stick". I have to "licence" the software several times a day to continue to use the tool. I see others have this problem with CC products. What is the permanent fix??

Hi Anubha.
-        There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.
-        If I connect to the internet and sign in from the “trial expired” scheme it all works fine. Until I close the software. When I start it up again it has “forgotten” that Annual subscription again.
-        A screen shot is attached showing the Help menu after I start up – you can see that the Adobe software doesn’t recognise that it is licenced software (the Deactivate option is missing).
-        However after 2 minutes it tries to connect to your server.
o   If I am connected to the internet then everything is fine, and the second screen shot shows the change in the Help menu.
o   But if I am not connected to the internet when it tries to connect, I get the “trial expired” message. Then I cannot use the software at all unless I immediately connect to the internet to log in.
I want to be able to use the software anytime, whether I am connected to the internet or not. At the moment, if I am not connected to the internet I cannot use the software for more than a couple of minutes before it shuts down. This is unacceptable, and the is the problem I want you to fix.
Can you understand?

Shayne.

The sound on my Atv goes fuzzy for about 3 minutes. happens several times a day. Help?

My Atv sound goes fuzzy/distorted several times a day. It only lasts for about 3 minutes then goes back to normal. Any suggestions?

Yes I am connecting by wireless and I'm not sure if it could be my renewal cycle. I have owned two different routers and the problem has happened while connected to both.

Firefox 3.6.16 hanges or freezes every 15 minutes and I have to close and restart.

Operating system is Windows 7. All of the addons that I am using I have been using over various versions without a problem. Over the last few months Firefox hangs regularly.

If it works in Windows Safe mode then you likely have a problem with your security software that is blocking Firefox and possibly other browser.
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
You may need to ask advice at the support site of that software if you can't fix it via the setup of that software.
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 crashes several times a day. I have not found a pattern yet. It crashes randomly, I suppose.

Firefox crashes. I think Facebook is always running. I've tried in safe mode and with all plug-ins disabled but it keeps crashing randomly. Some days no crashes at all. Some days three crashes in one minute.

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

Firefox stops working and I have to close and restart the browser to get it to work again.

I am using a dell laptop with windows 8 I have a wireless connection. Firefox stops responding, I can be on say, facebook and if I try doing something it won't do it, I can't click on a new tab to open i can't click home. My wireless gives me no indication that I have lost a signal or that it is weak. The only way to get the browser to respond is to close it and reopen it.
It's not just on facebook it's on every site I go to that it does this so it's not a site problem. I get no error message unless I manage to open a tab and it says the connection has reset then tells me to check everything and I do and everything is fine.

I forgot to mention.. this is a brand new mac book pro + apple genius bar ran hardware test overnight, no failures, they replaced my WS .. same issue!!
I works fine until I add my personal files (~~100 gig of text and bin files in my home dir), then it fails.. I have file-vault enabled.. but it failed without it.

I keep getting "Unresponsive Script" errors in random "jsm" files several times a day. Why?

Several times a day I get "Unresponsive Script" popups as I browse the internet. They're almost always different. Sometimes its in tabbrowser, sometimes it has something to do with a YouTube page I have open, and sometimes it occurs when I try to save a file with the built-in download manager.
I don't know why it does this so often. I don't have many Addons.
I also copied the technical information about my browser to help out if it can identify why these Unresponsive Script Errors keep appearing.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I want to delete xmarks, the most obnoxious add-on ever that crashes my computer several times a day

I want to get rid of xmarks sync. It is the most obnoxious, intrusive add-on ever and crashes my internet connection several times a day. I have followed the instructions on your helpdesk, but nothing works. It never fully loaded and refuses to give up. I want it out of my life forever.

In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
[[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]

I am just a computer and internet user, if you can't imagine what that's means, then I need to use and promote other web browsers.
I am really mad about the update, who is worthless!
sorry !
think about your reputation and do fast better.
sorry for my poor English

Try to drag the current Firefox application to the trash if you can't replace it.

You can force 5.0 "compatibility" with the "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Compatibility Reporter]" extension, or with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility extensions.checkCompatibility] using about:addons.

When reinstalling Firefox from a download, Firefox must be down once the installation starts. When the installation finishes, don't let the install start firefox for you. Instead end the install and start Firefox in your normal manner, thus preventing creating a new profile which does not have your bookmarks cookies, etc (but your old profile would still be around and would).

After ugrading to Firefox 4, I can not go to my job e-mail website. I get the message: ssl_error_renegotiation_not_allowed. No problem with the old version of Firefox. Can I have the old version of Firefox back?

I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?

I've noticed that in the new version of Firefox that you cannot save multiple tabs at one time like the previous Firefox 3.6.or so and I wanted to know if I can find that feature again?
In the previous versions of Firefox when you went to you Bookmarks menu it gave you the options to either Bookmark This Page 'command' + 'D', Subscribe to this Page, Bookmark All Tabs 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'D', and Organize Bookmarks 'up-arrow-key' + 'command' + 'B' however in the newest version of Firefox there is no Bookmark All Tabs so you can bookmark all the tabs that you have up in one window at a time. So I need to know if it is possible that the feature is now in a different place, is gone altogether, or if you can get that feature another way?
For me personally and my work I go through hundreds of web pages a day and save around half of those so it is imperative that I be able to bookmark more then one tab at a time because I can't be bothered to bookmark every single page separately and then go through hundreds of tabs in my Unsorted bookmarks in order to sort those bookmarks. It is simple inconvenient to sort every bookmark individually that is why the previous version of Firefox with the Bookmark All Tabs button was superior in its convenience.

Right click any tab and choose "Bookmark All Tabs".

Can I get the former version of Firefox back? The updated version stalls while browsing several times a day. I then have to close and restart.
