Firefox 25.0.1 and Facebook have JavaScript issues

I am using Firefox 25.0.1 with Mac IOS 10.9 on my Macbook Air. When trying to get to Facebook, I am told that I have to enable JavaScript in my browser or go to the mobile site. I am given no instructions on enabling JavaScript, nor can I find JavaScript in my settings or add-ons. Safari does not have this issue, but I'd prefer to use Firefox. Unfortunately, a web search of this issue does not bring me any results. Is it just me?

Firefox has a general on/off setting for JavaScript. If it was off, lots of sites would be giving you the same message. Since it's only on Facebook, I think something else might be the culprit here.
Your post didn't include any information on your add-ons, so I'll give some general advice.
'''Removing obsolete/conflicting/corrupted stored data'''
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
'''Testing for an extension conflict'''
Firefox's Safe Mode is a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash will still work)''
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Does Facebook work any better?

I recently installed 7.0.1 on two Windows 7 Enterprise x64 systems. Now everytime I close Firefox I receive an error "Firefox has stopped working" and I have to click close. Works fine on a Windows XP SP3 x86 machine.

"Firefox has stopped working"
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
I tried installing two ways; clean and upgrading from 6.0.2. I receive the same error message upon exit.

I followed the troubleshooting guide for extensions and themes, and still have the issue.
I modify the package to redistribute with SCCM, and I like to modify Firefox manually. This process has worked fine until 7.0 or 7.0.1. I extract the files from firefox setup 7.0.1.exe, then I extract the files from omni.jar, so I can modify settings in firefox.js to remove updates, setting firefox as the default browser, etc.. I run setup.exe and include a setup.ini as part of my installation command line to remove icons.
I tried just extracting .exe, and the files from omin.jar but not modifying anything and left out the .ini file and it still fails to close properly.
Like I said the above process works fine on XP.
If I install 7.0.1 via the download .exe on Win7 Enterprise x64 it works fine. I'm still looking into it.

Sometimes when I try to open firefox it says another application of firefox is already running and I have to close it first,isn't.

At least once a day I try to open Firefox and it won't let me. It says another application of Firefox is already running and I have to close it first. There is no other applicaion of Firefox running, and I have to reboot the computer.

What do I do to straighten out this problem... When I try to access Firefox after having logged out of a previous session I get a msg that Firefox is still running and I have to restart the computer in order to access internet.

All you need to do is wait. While Firefox appears closed, it's not. It doing house cleaning. Cleaning out cookies and cache. How long it takes depends upon how much garbage you have collected.
If you start the Task Manager and open the Process window, you will be able to see when Firefox has finished up and closed down.
If you forced Firefox to close using the task manager, then the house keeping process seems to freeze up.
Also, as you've already found out from the above link, some programs and plugins will prevent Firefox from closing properly. I've found this less common then simply being in a hurry. But you need to also consider it.

The Firefox 3.5.x branch has reached end-of-life and is no longer maintained. 
You will no longer receive security updates. 
You can update Firefox via "Help > Check for Updates" or download and install the latest Firefox 3.6.x. 
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
* http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/
If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

HT4623 The icons for my camera and facebook have disappeared. How can I get them back

I installed IOS6 recently on my IPhone and now my camera and facebook icons have disappeared. How can I get them back? Help!

For your camera, go to Settings>General>Restrictions and be sure that Camera is set to On. Don't know why you can't find FB, be sure you checked all your screens and inside all your folders.

When I try to close all programs it tells me firefox is still running and I have to close it first but it is not running!

After I have finished working on my computer, I close it all out and shut the monitor off. Lately it will not let me close out saying that firefox is still open and I should close it first. I cannot see anything that indicates firefox is running.

It sounds like it is hanging at exit, for details on how to troubleshoot that see either of these links:

I have a 1st generation Verizon Droid (running Android OS 2.2). Firefox for Android Beta keeps freezing and I physically have to remove the battery for it to reboot my phone. Does anybody else have this issue?

I try sending an email and Firefox disrupts the connection and I have to reload the page. Also, cannot attach any documents to emails.

I try sending an email and Firefox disrupts the connection and I always have to re-load the page. Also, I cannot attach any documents to emails.

Try one or more of the following:
> Restart Your Computer
> Uninstall and Reinstall iTunes
> Reset iPod (nothing will get deleted)
> Look in My Computer (Windows 98, XP) OR Computer (Windows Vista or 7) and see if your iPod is in there.
In some cases (and this happened to me before) plug your iPod in and out your computer a few times. It should get it going. If not, then I strongly recommend starting your computer.

After I exit Firefox, I keep getting messages that Firefox is still running and I have restart my computer. How can I avoid this from happening?

This happens when I close the internet browser. When i want to go back on, nearly every time, I get the message that firefox is till running, close or restart the computer. Since i have closed it, I continuously have to restart my computer (or switch over to Chrome)

Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

Youtube and Facebook video play issues

I purchased a new PC about 4 months ago a
Dell XPS8100 Studio.
Its an I7
Windows 7
IE 8.0.7600.16385
Flash player 10.1.85.3
Recently it updated the Flash and I'm pretty sure it was from that point on I have had issues playing videos on Facebook and Youtube.
If they don't start straight away you can hit refresh a few times and it will start to play but only run for about a min before it stops and the loading image occurs. Of course if I hit refresh again, it just takes me back to the start of the video.
The other alternative is that it will play about 4 seconds and then the downloading image appears and it does not play anymore. It does not seem to be a case of waiting to complete as I have waited and waited.
There is nothing wrong with my internet connection which is fast enough for smooth Video messenger conferencing.
I have not changed any of my antivirus (McAfee) or firewall settings.
I have sucessfully unistalled the Flash Player with the download tool and re-installed.
I'm using the 32bit IE8
This is driving my absolutely NUTS!!!
Please can you advise of a fix or which earlier version of Flash is likely to restore what used to work...
Rob

I have right clicked on the video and disabled hardware acceleration, I have also adjusted quality to low and there is no improvement.
Basically when you look at the playbar, the buffered video never moves during playback so it stops when the initial content of the buffer is exhausted.
This used to work with no issue until about a month ago.
Which Adobe files do I need to roll back?
Robert

Since I updated Firefox (around 3/8/11) I have had issues with logging in to my Comcast email. Comcast says that it is a software incompatibility, perhaps Firefox.

I received an automated download of a new FF version around March 8. I immediately began having issues with my email accounts on Comcast.net using my desktop (Windows 7). I do not have these issues with my laptop (FF 3.6.3, 4/29/10). Comcast spent almost 2 hours with me on several sessions, and demostrated that I can reach the email account through a work around, but not directly. They said that this was a software issue with some software package interfering with my login. Comcast reps could enter my email with no issues, so it has to be at my end. I removed a recent version of Adobe Flashplayer which had autoloaded around the same time as FF; when I tried to reload Flashplayer today, it told me that it was incompatible with FF.
