Farmville constantly closes and reopens

While playing Farmville (in Facebook) a Mozilla pop-up briefly shows up, then the game closes and re-starts. This happens whenever I interact with anything in the game. I installed Firefox yesterday and had no problems with Farmville. Today I do. Please help.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer (IE9) to close and reopen the tab

I have IE9 (using 32-bit version) installed on a relatively new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit. Up until last weekend IE9 worked fine and Flash Player worked fine too.
At the weekend a webpage asked for Flash Player to be updated - which I did. Ever since then whenever I go to a webpage needing Flash Player I get the message "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". This happens twice and then an IE9 error page.
I have read the discussions in here about the problems with Flash Player 10.3 and have tried the various solutions. I have updated to 10.3.181.16 having tried 15 and 14 previously. Same problem.
I have reset IE9. Same problem.
I have disabled all add-ons which stops the problem. If I enable just the Flash Player add-on then the problem recurs. Since there are so many webpages that use Flash I do not want to run my browser without this add-on running.
If I enable the add-on and run IE9 using software rendering instead of GPU rendering then I don't get the problem. However, this isn't exactly making the best use of the resources on my laptop.
This may well all be related to the 10.3 problems but no one seems to have mentioned having a problem with tabs closing and reopening so I thought I would post on here to check.
Any suggestions for how to solve this (other than using software rendering)?

Thanks again for your reply. I appreciate the time you have taken to respond.
I think, however, you misunderstand the problem. IE9 does not reopen the tabs on just one website - it is doing this on every website that needs Flash Player. Therefore, running in Compatibility mode is not an option. In fact, because IE9 reopens the tabs so quickly and then ends up with an error page, I cannot even click the Compatibility button anyway.
I could use ActiveX filtering - true. All that this means is that Flash does not play on any of the websites. When I want to re-enable ActiveX for a particular website where I need to see the Flash Player item, this just triggers the error.
This problem also happened on .14, .15 and well as the current .16 version. It did not happen with the previous version of Flash Player that I had on the system (version 10.2 I think).
The fact is that either Flash Player or IE9 or both is/are broken. The two choices I am still left with are:
1. Use software rendering (which contradicts the latest advertisements for IE9 about unleashing the power of IE)
2. Use another browser - I have no problems with either Firefox or Chrome

If I have more then a few tabs open such as gmail, facebook, and a zynga game no tabs will load at all. I close and reopen firefox numorous (Im talking 7 or 8 times or many more) and shut down the zynga game and still it wont load

If I have more then a few tabs open such as gmail, facebook, and a zynga game no tabs will load at all. I close and reopen firefox numorous (Im talking 7 or 8 times or many more) and shut down the zynga game and still it wont load the tabs or if it does and I then try to add the game or any other site at all on a tab it causes firefox to stop working (though not close) and I have to restart opening and closing it many times to get it to work at all.

1st, you will not be able to activate your PPro1.5 on ANY new computer, see next link for the special version you MUST use
CS2 (and earlier) Activation Server http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l
2nd, you already mentioned Virtual XP, so if a direct install doesn't work, that would be the way to go... or, to just do what SHOULD work from the start, just do Virtual XP

How do I access the End User Licensing Agreement? I clicked on it and it gives me a message that I need to launch Adobe Reader, accept and close and reopen. Trouble is I can't get to an icon for file to launch. I am working on a Mac and have installed Mac

I am using a Mac and have installed Adobe Reader for Mac, latest version. I cannot access the End User Licensing Agreement. I clicked on it and it gives me a message that I must launch Adobe, check that I agree, close and reopen. The problem is I can't find any way to launch Adobe because it appears nowhere on my launch pad, nor in my document files or on the control panel. Because of this, I cannot print bank statements nor can I get into my insurance companies billing department to make a payment. HELP!

How about in your Applications folder?

When I close and reopen firefox, it restores my tabs, but it restores tabs from hours or days ago, not the ones that were open when I closed the window - why?

I normally keep my Firefox window open for long periods of time because I have a lot of active tabs. When I close the window and reopen it, I am still able to restore tabs, but as of a few weeks ago, it has stopped restoring the most recent version. Normally, when I would close and reopen, the tabs would be the same ones that were open when I closed the window. Now, it restores to a version from a few days ago instead of the current version. I have to revert to pulling my more recent tabs out of the recent history. I checked my options and I can't figure out any way to control this. How can I fix it so that I can count on my Firefox window to restore the tabs that I actually care about?

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

When I set (on two different computers) the Location Bar to "Nothing" it resets to "History and bookmarks" as soon as I close and reopen Firefox.

When I set (on two different computers) the Location Bar option: When using the location bar suggest: to "Nothing" it resets to "History and bookmarks" as soon as I close and reopen Firefox. I am using the latest vesion on Win8 on both computers. One has Bitdefender the othe McKafee. I have no obvious Addware, I use Iobit Uninstaller Advanced Care and and Driver manager on both computers. Until now I have always used Firefox as I refuse to use Explorer and I do not want to have to use Opera or another browser instead.
Can you please help?

Have you seen this general article: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]?
Also, this might be a glitch with using automatic private browsing mode. Some settings changes might not be saved in that mode.
If all else fails, do you want to try a manual hack?
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window (Windows Explorer window) showing your current settings files.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then open '''prefs.js''' in a text editor by right-clicking it and choosing Edit or Open With. (Double-clicking leads to Windows attempting to execute it, so I do not recommend that.)
Paste this at the end of the file on its own line:
user_pref("browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled", false);
Then save the file and close your editor.
Start Firefox back up again. Did the manual change work?

Re:How to close and reopen a document immediately?

Original Message available here: <a href="/webx?14@@.3c055358">Dave Sykes, "How to close and reopen a document immediately?" #, 15 Nov 2007 4:46 am</a> > Dave Sykes - 04:46am Nov 15, 2007 Pacific I would like to close a document and then immediately afterwards open it up again. The documentation says "To process a command to close the document immediately, use IDocumentCommands::Close'', but it also points to SDKLayoutHelper::CloseDocument which uses IDocFileHandler::Close. If I use IDocumentCommands::Close the close succeeds, but InDesign unexpectedly quits when it regains control. If I use IDocFileHandler::Close then when I reopen the document I get the assert ``Calling SelectionExtentionRegistry::Initialize more than once!'' This is the same error I get by not closing the document at all. I have also tried ProcessCommand(Utils<IDocumentCommands>()->CreateCloseCommand(docUIDRef)), but this also crashes InDesign when it regains control. In all cases I am calling ProcessCommand(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kCloseLayoutWinCmdBoss), as otherwise I get an error that the document is still referenced on close. Is it possible to close all the layout windows and also close the document, so that it can be reopened immediately? I had the same issue and tried to solve it by closing all windows in the document's IWindowList and then calling IDocFileHandler::Close() with IDocFileHandler::kProcess to process the command immediately instead of scheduling it. Unfortunately this still resulted in a crash. Eventually I got around it by adding the following line before re-opening the document: CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds (ICommand::kLowestPriority); This forced InDesign to completely close the document before re-opening it again. Hope this helps someone else too. :) - Jackeen

I am having the same problem with InDesign CS4 version,
I have tried the following:
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IWindowList::CloseAll()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IDocumentList::CloseAll()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IPresentationList::CloseAllPresentations()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
is Three anything else that could work.
Thanks and Regards

Every time I load my igoogle home page opening firefox, it opens it in two tabs instead of one, and then AVG tells me firefox is using too much memory and I should close and reopen it; Why

I open firefox using my igoogle home page and immediately it opens two igoogle tabs on top instead of just one how do I stop it from opening the second one? and then after about two minutes AVG tells me firefox is using too much memory slowing my machine and tells me to close and reopen fire fox...how do I fix that?

Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that that there are no longer Firefox or plugin-container processes left on the Processes tab in the Task Manager. Otherwise session restore will reopen the page(s) from the previous session.

Everytime I close and reopen firefox, my themes and add-ons are gone and I need to re-install them.

To be more specific, my chosen custom theme will be deleted, buttons for add-ons such as "white on black" will have to be added again, and settings such as the preference to save downloads on my desktop instead of a "Downloads" folder will be reset to the latter.
Also, when I reopen the browser, I get the Firefox Start Page, as I have specified, but I also get other tabs such as the homepages for greasemonkey and userstyles.org.
Please do help me if you can, I need a solution. I choose a theme that changes the entire skin to black because I work on the PC for long hours, and I need dark colours to help my eyes cope with the stress. It's going to be a massive strain if I have to re-install the theme everytime I close and reopen the browser.

I've tried that, but the problem persists.

On bulitine boards the visited links revert back to unvisited when I close and reopen Firefox

This began today. When I either shut down and restart the Mac or close and reopen Firefox the links that I had already read revert back to unread status. This began today for no apparent reason.
I am running 3.6 because every time I would update the a newer version this same problem would happen, up to now it did not happen on 3.6.

Some bulletin boards load threads in a frame and in such a case is the visited state not kept after you close Firefox.
If it happens with all links then make sure that the history is enabled.
This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Just recently update my Apple TV and iTunes, every time now I turn on my Apple TV, I have to go to my computer and close and reopen Itunes several times before my Photos share to the Apple TV. Is there a fix for this??

I just recently updated my Apple TV and iTunes, and now every time I turn on my Apple TV, I have to go to my computer and close and reopen Itunes several times before my Photos share to the Apple TV. Is there a fix for this??

This indicates the device is in recovery mode.
Connect it to a computer running iTunes and restore it.

Since the last update, whenever I close and reopen Firefox, my default search engine changes back to Google. What's going on?

Since the last update, whenever I close and reopen Firefox, my default search engine changes back to Google. I have to manually change it back to my preferred engine. Is anyone else having this problem, and if so, how can I permanently change my search provider, instead of having to manually change it again every time I start Firefox?

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Try to delete the search.json file and possible search-metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to reset the search engines to the default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

Album artwork only shows after you close and reopen after downloading music

I have notices, in itunes 10.1, that when you download one song from an album, the image shows up "unkown artwork" or "unknown album" until you close and reopen itunes. Then, it displays just fine.
I updated my itunes by downloading the installer and running instead of letting SU do it.
