Facebook and Google costing Firefox 10/10.0.1/10.0.2/11b3/11b3 to load slow

FF loads tabs slowly since v. 10.0.0 update. v. 10.0.1 and v. 10.0.2 as well as 11b3 and b4 have the same issue.
All of my tabs load slowly. On average I have 6-7 open, two of them are Facebook and Google+ which are both Pinned as Apps. It takes 3-4 minutes to load all tabs, and the browser is basically frozen doing the process.
If I close Facebook and Google+ the tabs do load a lot faster then the 3-4 minutes. But it till takes around 30 seconds to load low requirement websites.

Firefox does not actually reload the tabs when starting. It only opens the various sites in different tabs to confirm that they are still available. TMP prevents tab reload so that you have the same page in front of you as you did when you closed down Firefox, like when twitter updates your timeline, the tweets displayed when I open FF again, are the same as those hours before.
So it is not the reload, TMP disables that function.

My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google), Opera, or Mozilla Firefox. I already did the "Reset Safari", restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete.

My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google). Opera and Mozilla Firefox won't load any sites whatsoever. I already did the "Reset Safari" several times, restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete. I virus scanned the computer with Sophos, Avast, and iAntiVirus and it looks clean.

Is iAntiVirus the best virus protection to use for a MacBook?
The best anti-virus protection is your own common sense, and what you already bought and paid for with your Mac. Third party products such as "iAntiVirus" convey no additional benefit, and as you already determined are very capable of causing trouble.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

Facebook and Google Video Chatting in iChat

I added my facebook and google contacts into iChat the normal way and txt chat with them. But it won't let me video chat with them through iChat...the little button won't let me press it. How do i get it to work?

After downloading IOS 6 all my stored pictures were wiped off. But the pictures are still there at Facebook and google photo accounts. How do I transfer the photos back to my iPad?

After downloading IOS 6 all my stored pictures were wiped off. I later noticed that the pictures are still there on photo stream on my Facebook and google accounts. How do I transfer these pictures back to my iPad from any of these accounts?

I once had a sync problem that turned out to be that a specific photo was corrupted and impeded the process from continuing. Try to see if it gets stuck at a specific photo, then delete just that one.

Based in Thailand, but I can't download Facebook and Google Earth for iPad, what do I do?

Trying to download Facebook and Google Earth applications for the new iPad 2. I'm based in Thailand and is unable to find in Thai iTune store. Very frustrated. But when I change location to either USA or UK, those two apps do appear. The only stumbling block is that I do not have a credit card based on those two countries, thus unable to create an account there. What can I do to get around this weird situation?

It is really weird that they do have a Facebook application for iPhone, but not for iPad in Thai iTune store.
There could be copyright or other legal issues of some sort, or Facebook may just not have the iPad version regionalized yet. No way to know with any certainty.
So we are unable to download applications elsewhere besides our region/country?
That is correct. The terms of use for any country's iTunes/App Store restrict its use to within that country only.
Or is there anything we could do to bring to attention the people who work for iTune Thailand that they need to make available certain applications that already do appear in foreign iTune stores?
It's not up to Apple, it's up to the developers. You'd need to contact Facebook and Google and urge them to make their apps available in Thailand.
Regards.

How to open feedDialog or ShareDialog in facebook and Google Plus in Windows Store App 8.1

I am developing a Store App in which I need to publish some message and image on user's profile. Using WebAuthenticationBroker I have
allowed the user to login in both Google Plus and Facebook and it returns a token but then I want to open Feed Dialog. How can I achieve this? Using graph API or any other third party SDK?

Hi RohitrkKumar,
Per my understanding, the primary purpose of Web Authentication Broker is to avoid collecting credentials in client app and then transmitting those credentials over HTTP requests. But your requirement is to show facebook dialog, I think it is not related
to
WebAuthenticationBroker. You can get more information about share dialog from facebook site.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/share-dialog?locale=zh_CN.
If you still have questions, please post more information about your scenario.

Firefox will not connect to Tumblr, Facebook, and Google sites.

I had an issue where my computer completely froze up and I had to force restart. When I logged back on, Firefox no longer trusted Google or Facebook. Youtube seems ok, it's just sites with "google.com" in the URL... and Facebook.
Here's the error message I am getting:
This Connection is Untrusted
You have asked Firefox to connect
securely to maps.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
Normally, when you try to connect securely,
sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.
What Should I Do?
If you usually connect to
this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.
maps.google.com uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.
(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
I accepted that I would take the risks, but these sites won't load images. What good is Facebook without faces? Any ideas?
(A user on another site suggested uninstalling Firefox, cleaning the registry, and then re-installing. Doing this made Tumblr stop working)

*deep breath* Ok. All is well. Thank you all for your help. I wouldn't have realised what the issue was otherwise. I'm good now

Some times firefox does not opens facebook and google pages and this does not happen for other sites. Iam Currently using windows xp and using 3.6.3 Firefox version.Please help.

Some times the fire fox does not open google and facebook pages but it does not happen for other sites. Iam currently using Windows xp and iam using Mozilla Fire fox 3.6.3 .Please help
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.facebook.com,www.google.com

You can try a direct connection and select No Proxy in the connection settings.
You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"
Also do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

Can't access youtube and google docs.

I can't access some websites, like youtube (I can only see a page with text and links) and google docs (firefox stops downloading like everything is correct, but nothing happens). Allready fully uninstalled (as far as I know, forgot bookmarks, passwords, etc....) firefox from my OSX 10.6. Installed it again and find the same problems. Other browsers have no problem with these websites. thanks. No errors reported by firefox.

If it works through the Ethernet port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) it probably has nothing to do with the AEBS. There must be something about the configuration of the computer connecting wirelessly.

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

There can be multiple reasons for crashing. Seeing this article would be helpful as it lists out the solution for this-

You have 14 days to return the computer w/no questions asked. Plus you have 90 days of FREE phone tech support on top of your standard 1 year warranty unless you also purchased AppleCare which gives you an additional 2 years of coverage plus FREE phone support.
Strongly suggest that you take FULL advantage of the above before it runs out. Let Apple deal w/the problems.

Firefox is not loading specific websites for me. Sites like Facebook, Ebay, Google, and Netflix refuse to open, or even acknowledge me pressing the Enter key

Firefox is not loading specific websites for me. Sites like Facebook, Ebay, Google, and Netflix refuse to open, or even acknowledge me pressing the Enter key when I type in the address or click a link to that site. Practically every other site works perfectly fine. I did not change any settings or download any new addons prior to this problem, it just started happening. I have done everything I can find in the forums; resetting firefox, clearing cache and cookies, making network settings use no proxy, reinstalling, and today I uninstalled Firefox, updated and scanned my computer with all 3 software I use (AVG, Malwarebytes, and Spybot), found no issues, restarted my computer, and reinstalled a freshly downloaded Firefox setup without importing any settings or doing anything other than a totally clean install, and still nothing. Chrome and IE still are able to access every site perfectly fine. I have no idea what the issue is or how to fix it, as I've tried everything I know and could research.

Hi There,
Sorry to hear of your issue. I found a great article for you to read and explain how to fix your issue. I hope this hope :)

Facebook, yahoo, google will not open in firefox. They don't even register as being directed to go to those sites.

I have completely uninstalled firefox and re-installed it and the issue has not changed. When I type facebook.com, google.com, yahoo.com into the location bar, firefox registers that I hit enter to do something but then reverts to an empty location bar within a second. Bookmarks to these pages do not work either. I can get may other pages to load, these three seem to be the main ones.

This issue is still present in safe mode.
