Chrome Browser hangs

Quick question for any Chrome users out there.
Does anybody have problems with the browser hanging and showing the following message "The following pages have been unresponsive, kill them or wait".
The happens when I am using Google Docs and the pc although  a few years old has only just been rebuilt. There are no other extension installed in Chrome other than Google Docs.
Finally when this issue occurs, the hard disk thrashes away.
Grateful for any advce.
Thanks in advance

What is your version. Mine is [at this date]=30.0.1599.101. Your hard drive is trying to carry out an action that Chrome is not accepting. If all else fails re-download Chrome done it many times shouldnt be a problem

  • Firefox Version 36.0 Hanging with odd Script: chrome://browser/content/places/browserPlacesViews.js Errors / Lost all bookmarks including Sync.

    Hello - Yesterday 4 different PC's updated automatically to Firefox Version 36.0, they are all Windows 7 x64 Systems with the latest patches, one of them is a work / corporate PC running a slightly older version (34 I believe).
    Since the update all of my bookmarks have been lost and seems that sync got wiped out as well. I had a few thousand bookmarks all organized in folders and they are all gone. Whenever I click on the bookmark menu item firefox will hang and eventually give me the following error with different numbers at the end of the line (varies on each system as well as the same system). See attached for an example.
    Script: chrome://browser/content/places/browserPlacesViews.js
    Even if I start Firefox in Safemode I get the same results / behavior (the hanging) I can't even access the bookmarks menu to try and restore them from a backup. When I do that Firefox will hang and never come back, I have to go in to task manager and end the task.
    I've tried "Refreshing" at work I tried uninstalling / installing the newest as well as a version 35 version of firefox and have the same exact issue. I removed all of the plugins, I've even tried a full on reset of firefox and have had no luck whatsoever .
    It appears that I have lost about 10 years of various bookmarks but seem to have a somewhat up to date copy on one system with Chrome but Firefox won't even allow me to import the bookmarks as it will just hang.
    I have Malwarebytes running on 3 of the systems, it hasn't found anything, I also have Microsoft Security essentials running and did full scans of each system and haven't found anything, there isn't any kind of add on / plug in that I can see that is causing this
    Please help as I am now in a huge bind at work without all of my bookmarks!!!

    Ok this did not resolve the issue, I downloaded the Places Maintenance Add on and ran it with all of the options selected, I also verified that this is not a permissions issue and ran chkdsk on the disk.
    I am unable to make a backup of the bookmarks it just hangs and never makes the backup, I can't even export them either.
    I went to the next step and renamed the places.sqlite file and restarted firefox which did restore my bookmarks from a previous backup but I still can't click on the bookmark menu option without firefox locking up .
    How do I resolve this and how do I get my data back in to Sync?
    If this file is corrupted does that mean that all of my linked browsers downloaded the same corrupt file from Sync? How do I resolve that, is there anyway to recover my history from any of my other PCs?
    All that I did was when I was logged out of sync but want to know how I go about getting the info back in to Sync.

  • When I clear history script:chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136 hangs, what is this?

    When I "clear recent history" it hangs and "script:chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136" comes up and I have to stop the script to continue. This started within the last week.

    On Windows, the file path is:
    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\%PROFILENAME%\downloads.sqlite
    I renamed the file, but it did not work.
    What I did was uncheck all of the checkboxes in "Clear Recent History..."
    By one checkbox at a time, I cleared each item.
    When I reached the "Cookies" item, I got the unresponsive script/JavaScript error, so I left that unchecked and cleared the rest of the items.
    After I cleared everything else, I returned to the "Cookies" item, and I was able to clear it now.
    "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
    Script: chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136"

  • While deleting history firefox crash with error of Script: chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136.So has to wait or cancel the script.

    I have upgraded Firefox to 4.0.1.But while deleting history(everything) Firefox hangs for some time and then this error appears
    Script: chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:136
    is unable to continue.so either wait till process complete or stop the process.Sometimes it crashes Firefox.

    It's great to know that the good people at Mozilla doesn't give a shit that it takes 5min to clear my history after I've browsed porn.

  • I am facing what appears to be a malware, my browsing is slow, my browser hangs and also my system has become slow

    I am facing what appears to be a malware, my browsing is slow, my browser hangs and also my system has become slow, these are symptoms, I cant watch videos on youtube

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    After moving all the files, restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    This unwanted program is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Flash Player Clashes and Browser Hang

    Hi, I have been experiencing the following problem for the past few weeks.
    My IE and Firefox hang after finished viewing video via Adobe Flash Player. I was prompted to send a crashed report and reload the page before the browser is responsive again.
    I am using the updated browser and did try disabling hardware acceleration but problem unsolved.
    Amazingly my Chrome browser is not being affected.
    Please help out, thanks.

    Thanks for sending the Crash report.  If you wouldn't mind, we'd like to get more information from you.  This FAQ details the info we'll need:
    How do I report a Flash Player crash to Adobe?

  • Keep getting script error chrome:/browser/content/tabbrowser.xml:537

    I keep getting the error message that a script is not working. This is the script that is responsible.
    chrome:/browser/content/tabbrowser.xml:537
    I only get this message playing farmville on facebook.
    I also notice that facebook will hang firefox quite easily.
    I tried using IE8 with no problems at all. No hangs in farmville or while scrolling on my wall in facebook.

    Please try the steps on this page: [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If that doesn't help, please let us know and we'll try to figure out something else.

  • My PDFs no longer load properly in Chrome browser

    http://prosol1.com/paragon.html
    I'm not sure if this is the right forum with this issue but it does have something to do with PDFs.  Please go to the above web page.  Click on any of the links to the PDF newsletter.  When I uploaded these files onto the server originally, I tested them and they all loaded properly in the web browser.  Now, none of them are viewable in the Chrome browser.  There are error messages popping up.
    When you right-click on them and save them to your desktop and open them, they work fine.  Also, I just tested the above links in MS IE and all 3 of them work fine there as well - the PDFs load in IE like they should.
    Does anyone know what the problem is?  Any help is appreciated.

    You're right.  Just found the blog posts and so forth about the browser problem.  Thanks.

    I am using Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3 desktop computer.
    I have a HP Officejet 6500 E709n Series printer.
    I am encountering some problems printing from my Google Chrome browser in my Outlook.com account because when I try to change some settings in the print dialog interface the printout comes out incorrectly.
    Below are the 2 snapshots of the print dialog interface of Google Chrome browser before printing an email message from my Outlook.com account.
    Are there any software updates to correct this problem?
    Please reply back soon.
    Thanks.
    Sincerely,
    Etow

    Welcome to the forums Etow,
    I saw your post about the issue you are having with printing from Google Chrome. Have you tried disabling your pop up blocker to see if that will help? Also see this guide about Printing with Chrome.
    If the above does not help, try using Firefox or Internet Explorer to print.
    Have a great Friday

  • Why can Google Chrome browser display PDF that Reader cannot?

    I have a large PDF of a 2300-person family tree (400 pages if printed) that I am trying to share with family.  The PDF is produced by MacFamilyTree on Mac OS X 10.8.4  It has the ability to simply "Save" the Graph as a PDF and I can also ask it to "Print" and inside the "Print Dialog" I can ask it to "Save as PDF".  I have created the PDF both ways, and have the same problems with both.
    Using Mac OS X 10.8 and Apple's Preview program, I can view the PDF and search inside the PDF just fine.  If only all my relatives were on Macs my problems would be solved.  But alas, they are predominantly on Windows (XP, Vista, 7, 8) with all the annoyances that are entailed in trying to help troubleshoot non-technical people who have no idea what software they have or have not installed or updated.
    Using the Google Chrome browser on Windows 7 (64-bit) and on Mac OS X 10.8.4 I can view the PDF, but search fails.  Being able to see the family tree will certainly be a bonus to family members, but the first thing they all want to do is "Find Myself" in the tree.  So getting a solution that both displays and allows for search (like Preview does) is what I'm hoping for.
    These other browers (Safari, IE, FireFox) all the latest and greatest, downloaded today with fresh installs, fail to display the PDF on both OSes (obivously, IE was only on Win7 - not 100% sure which version it was, probably 9).
    Acrobat Reader, version 9.5, and the current latest version on both Win7 and Mac OS X fail to display the PDF at all.
    If I reduce the scope of the family tree, down to say 300 people, then pretty much all of these programs are able to display it just fine.  Search is still mostly broken, but display works.  If I reduce it even futher to just a couple dozen people, then display and search works great everywhere.
    The largest file itself is only a tad larger than 4MB.
    The document is not very complex - just a bunch of lines connecting people to their spouses/children/parents and small boxes around each "person" with their name and a little bit of other text, like wedding/divorce and death information.
    It's as if all the engineering teams (other than Chrome and Preview) decided to impose an artificial limit on the size of single PDF "page" and the family tree has simply gone past that limit.
    Any suggestions?  Any chance Reader can be tweaked to be at least as good as the Google Chrome browser or Apple's Preview programs?

    I think you might be hitting a page size limit of 200 x 200 inches in Adobe software. Larger files typically appear blank.

  • Webutil_host.blocking is not working when an existing Chrome browser is already open

    Hi Everyone,
       I've a small issue which I would like to share with you and hopefully you might have come across this problems before and assist me to resolve it.
    The problem is I'm using Oracle Forms [32 Bit] Version 11.1.2.0.0 (Production) version and in one of the Form's button I'm calling an external API to display the image in a Chrome browser and once it completes, it would return control back to the Oracle Form. In the ideal situation where there isn't any existing Chrome browser opened, the logic would work perfectly as I was using the webutil_host.blocking command that block Form processing until the Chrome browser is terminated. However, as soon as I have one or more existing Chrome browsers open, I was still able to call the external API to display the image but the locking or blocking of the Oracle Form would not work. By the way, all clients accessing the oracle Forms are using Window 7. Is that a solution for that? Is that a Chrome, OS or/and WebUtil issue? Thank you for your assistance and time.
    Regards,
         John

    Hello,
    does anyone have any thoughts on this or a workaround?
    We use the blocking feature to allow the user to make changes to the document and then restore those changes to the database. Without this feature the code falls through and breaks the link between the document and the forms application.
    appreciate all help

  • Browser hangs when an Adobe Interactive Form is

    Hi Folks,
    I'm fairly new to ABAP (< 1 year) and am in the process of creating my first Adobe Interactive Form. In fact it will be the first IFbA at our company, when I get done with it!
    Here's the problem am facing: The Interactive Form that I'm building is called within an ABAP Web Dynpro application. If the displayType in the view is set to 'native', when the IFbA is called, the browser hangs and eventually shows the form after 5 full minutes. However, if it is set to 'activeX', it comes up with the form instantly. It does not matter what objects(WD activeX or native) I have on the form, It does the same thing.
    Our System information:
    SAP_Basis and SAP_ABA: 701 SP5
    ADS: 802.20100902045248.720952
    Adobe Reader 9
    I've looked at the SAP Note 999998 and have pretty much done what they've asked for. But, have had no progress with it. I'm pretty much at my wits end. So, somebody please help?!
    Thanks,
    CS

    Hi,
    Goto the Layout,
    Then goto Utilities->Insert WebDynproScript  and Activate.
    it will work.

  • Problem with opening PDF files in Google Chrome browser

    We have a web page displaying links to dynamically generated PDF files located on the internal repository. This files are not just text PDF files but PDF forms created using XFA technology. This means that they must be opened and filled only in Adobe Reader and not in Foxit Reader or browser's built-in PDF viewer.
    Now, the problem is that a Google Chrome browser opens any PDF file using its own PDF viewer. And I want to force this browser to open PDF files in Adobe Reader.
    How can I achieve this without disabling 'Chrome PDF Viewer' plugin since I can't do this for all users of our web site?
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. We use LiveCycle ES3.

    Each user would have to set each browser individually.
    Note: I don't think it's possible to set the default PDF viewer with code for every user who visits the site.
    See the following link to enable Adobe Reader as the default PDF viewer in different browsers:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
    Note: Not all PDF viewer browser plug-ins support PDF submissions, and most 3rd party viewers may not support forms created with LiveCycle or forms with Extended Reader Rights enabled.

  • How to install Google's chrome browser safely on MacBook Pro-retina?

    Hello, I've arrived to a crossway which I need (don't want to) install Google's chrome browser or Firefox on my MacBook Pro.
    Yes, I don't want to, I hate it running on a Mac.
    I know it's the best browsing experience in a 'Chromebook', but in "Rome be a roman",
    After using this amount of money to buy the finest MacBook Pro out there, from some reasons,
    I don't want to install it. I want Safari to be able to run every site, even the main site of my university.
    That's what I expect from Apple.inc. that everything will work!
    I mean, how Chrome and Firefox and even Microsoft's IE, supporting and running those uni. sites, and Safari - DOES NOT ?
    (In case that you want to know about which sites I'm brabbling about,
    here is one for example: http://new.huji.ac.il/en there are section that just don't work via safari.)
    In addition,
    I'd like to know, since I didn't find a good solution, what are the right ways to install Chrome on a MacBook Pro-R,
    and to control all the files (EVERYTHING) that are related to it,  so I'd know where to find them after I use it. (additional same information for using firefox the same way will be more than welcome).
    Thank you,
    Jacob.
