Firefox 4 .0.1 hangs all the time. Has to be Force Killed

Firefox hangs almost every time I run it on my Mac Laptop running Mac OS X 10.6.7. I have to force kill it every time. I have disabled all add-ons and also switched from 64bits to 32bits but the problem has not gone away. I am using Safari more and more and I don't want to do that.

My firefox restarts my PC all the time.

Hello Guys
My firefox restarts my PC all the time. It just hangs everything on the computer and restarts without stopping. What to do?
I formatted my machine and I can not use firefox. It restarts my computer all the time, lock screens, freezes and shuts down the entire system.
How do I remove it and stop the problems I can work normally.
Someone can tell me what to do? why is this happening?
Regards
Suzana

Eset looks good, so maybe it's not a virus, but I would try also running:
ADWCleaner . . . https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/
and
Malwarebytes Free . . . http://www.malwarebytes.org/downloads/
I was getting the blue screen a while back, when I had an old sound card installed. I think the driver was incompatible.
I moved around and reseated the memory. I did a memory check. There was no problem there. I used the tip of a ballpoint pen to reset the CMOS: I pressed in and held the yellow button in the corner for 10 seconds, this checked the RAM, if there were an error, it wouldn't go up to 2048
I found that there was an update for the BIOS, so I did that. Look on the manufacturer's web page. It may not have been the fix, but that's something to look at.
Two other culprits that I know from experience - make sure you have the latest driver for your system, for the video card - not a bad idea to look at the sound card also.
I'm in Win 8.1
First, here's what I would do (have done) - If you're in Windows, this is probably the same path:
Control Panel / System / Advanced system settings / Advanced tab / Startup and Recovery - Settings / System failure / [un-check] Automatically restart
. . . Reason: Because then the next time it restarts, it will give you a blue screen, and hold, right there.
. . . This gives you the opportunity to see an error code at the bottom of the screen, that will enable you to figure out what's going on.
. . . If it just restarts, I think this flashes on the screen, then just continues to restart.
. . . Write down the code, get back online, and start googling to figure out how to fix.
. . . From the blue screen, hold down the power button for a couple of seconds, that will power it off. Leave it off for 10 seconds, then power it back on.
Second - here's where to look for more clues . . . see what was going just before the crash, and start googling what looks suspicious:
Programs / Administrative Tools / Event Viewer / Windows Logs - and look under:
. . . Application . . . and
. . . System

Back up your iPhone and restore from backup. If that's does not help, restore your iPhone as new (not from backup).

CC 2014 hangs all the time

It's a disaster!
(all new CC2014 apps installed and updated) premiere pro CC2014 ; trying to export media to media enconder CC2014 which hangs all the time. Working on the latest mbp i7.
When one timeline is rendering in media encoder nothing can be added to it and premiere pro 2014 is significantly behaving like a mpb2,1 generation laptop.
nothing of this was happening with my brand new laptop on CC
Not ready with this release yet?
A far from smooth update which I'am not used from U at adobe!
[Moving to Premiere Pro... JTS]

Mine works ok until I render out a video. It brought my i7 system to its knees. Rendering out an hour long H264 video (in ppro, not media encoder) once the render was at 100% it just sat there for about 10 minutes finalizing or something? Anyways the whole system became almost unusable and every click or mouse move takes forever, like trying to eat peanut butter with a straw.
My system is an i7 4770k with 16gb of ram and a GeForce GTX760

Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.

Mozilla Thunderbird hangs all the time, won't download messages, won't save messages,

Hi,
I have been running Mozilla Thunderbird since the beginning of the year.
I have always had problems, but it seems to be getting worse.
It won't download messages, it won't save messages at the time you send them, instead a window runs for ages saying:
"Copying messages to saved folder"
Then it says
"There was an error saving the message to sent, retry?"
You hit cancel and then it comes up with:
"The message was sent successfully, but could not be copied to your Sent folder. Would you like to return to the compose window?"
Then there is the problem of downloading messages, basically it doesn't all the time, it hangs and I have to either restart the computer or download them on my iphone.
It can take upwards of 20 minutes to download a single message.
I had a look at the "Activity Manager" and it seems frozen as well.
It also sends up the messages that the server has been disconnected or timed out.
I've had a look through the trouble shooting guide but can't seem to progress this.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
I am running the latest version, and have Windows 7, 64 bit.
I am fast of the opinion I'd better shell out some cash and get Windows Outlook as Thunderfox is a nightmare.
Many thanks,
Adrian

Firefox keeps "not responding" all the time ... is very anoring

it happens mostly while using facebook's posting page (FB and the Zynga games on FB are the only thing I'm on most of the time I'm on line) ... I keep running into "FIREFOX NOT RESPONDING" all the time ... I'll go to click on a posting and nothing happens ... when i click again the page goes cloudy and that DARN blue wheel shows up (I hate the wheel) & at top of computer is says "Firefox not responding" ... my scrolling wheel will not work right ... jumps up & down the page or won't move at all ... always have to be refreshing the page or exit firefox & reopen ... looses connection a lot or is out of sync & has to be refreshed ... this started to happen several weeks back after I first downloaded Firefox 4 ... in fact I've had to reload it several times ... this is all very frustrating when trying to play my games ... I've defragmented, run both my AGV & windows washer programs several times but nothing seems to help ... had no problems with earlier firefox so tried to reload it but now can't get earlier version to work either

How can I stop new tabs to show up while I am using Firefox? It happens all the time...

While I am using Firefox, new pages keep opening all the time, new tabs. Even for writing this message I had to close new pages many times. It is boring, I am considering not using Firefox any more if I can´t fix it.

hello fachoa, you have various malicious addons present. please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Firefox Mobile 18a1 crashes all the time

I have been testing Nightly builds of Firefox Mobile for Android for some time now. Recently (after Ion landed), the browser crashes all the time. I can't even get into about:config or about:crashes long enough to get any useful information or try anything. Is there a way to put the browser in Safe Mode? Any other ideas?

Hey,
Yes, this is known. We've got a couple bug reports on file and have been investigating it this week. See bugs: http://bugzil.la/791781, http://bugzil.la/792342, http://bugzil.la/790139.
The crash you describe sounds like http://bugzil.la/790139 as I came across this too yesterday.
Hopefully we'll see some fixes soon.

Since the update to Firefox 15, it crashes all the time after a little while, with RAM consuming capped max!!!

Since my update to Firefox 15, it crash every little while; i tried everything, from unistalling and re-installing it to safe mode and more... but nothing changed! The only clue i have is that every time after i use Facebook, opening some tabs, or something similar, my computer fill all the RAM i have (4GB), and particulary Firefox manage to get this incredible and wrong usage!! i have some crash ID report i hope could help to fix this problem of mine...
Thank you all!

I have pretty much the same problem. Disabling hardware acceleration does NOT fix it. Firefox has never been this unstable. What's going on??

I think the next step is to try to rule out a settings issue. Could you do a three-minute experiment?
'''Back up your Bookmarks'''
Use the steps in this article to create a backup in a convenient location (such as Desktop or Documents): [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]].
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
You'll click the Create Profile button. I recommend using the default location suggested (i.e., bypass the option to choose a different location). Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
Using the steps in the above article, you can restore your bookmarks to the new profile.
If you visit sites you usually visit, is there any noticeable difference in stability?
When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.
