Firefox 6 slowed down the loading of webpages to a ridiculous level. What the heck is going on, and why isn't there a fix for it?????

Web pages take forever (ie, minutes) to load.

I suggest you revert.
6.0 apparently has many performance issues. I can't speak to your specific slow-down issue, but if you look at these boards, 6.0 has enough problems to suggest it should be avoided until Mozilla actually puts out a FIX release, not a "new release with new added bugs" release.

    1. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
    2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”

    Hello Turintest2,
    I am having a similar problem.  I have over 4000 songs giving me this error.  I certainily don't want to go in one by one and find them.  I know you wrote a script for Windows but I am a Mac user.  Is there a fix for me?  Here is the info on where the song is currently (used by doing the get info)
    Here's a shot of my preferences:
    Just FYI, I know that apparently iTunes is looking for this music in the trash.  However, if I go here:
    Then I find the music there as well.  (Which is where it is in my preferences.)
    Please help!  I don't want to have to go through over 4000 songs and update them one by one.

    Hey Tlabounty,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the microphone on your iPhone 5. To troubleshoot this issue, you may find the information in this article helpful:
    iPhone: Microphone issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Note that speakerphone and regular calls utilize seperate microphones on the device. It sounds like you have isolated the issue. Furthermore, if you determine that the issue is hardware related, the following resource may help you get started with the service process:

  • When I go to a signin page of a website the remember passwrd button will not allow me to click on it in Firefox 11, the button pops up but is not active. the same site works fine in chrome. Is there a fix for this?

    am running win 7 64 pro - tried going back to firefox 10 with same results. all the tools options are set to remember passwords

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    It is possible that there is a problem with the files key3.db and signons.sqlite that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.<br />
    Rename the files key3.db and signons.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder.<br />
    You can add .old to the file names (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) or move them to another folder to make it possible to undo the action.<br />
    You need to set a new Master Password after renaming or deleting key3.db and all currently saved passwords are lost.<br />
    If that has worked then you can remove the renamed files that are no longer needed.<br />

  • Hello,  I am have problems with coruption of the photos in a slide show after burning the DVD in iDVD.  This coruption does not always appear when you preview the project.  I have slowed down the burn rate to 1X and kept the quality to professional.

    I am having a great deal of problems with Data coruption in slide shows after I have burned a DVD in iDVD.  I have changed burn rate from best to 1X with no difference in the coruption.  I have the quality set to professional with no improvement.  The size of the project is near 3.95, so it should fit on a single layer burn.  Should I use either iMovie to create the slide show or "Photo to Movie"?  Also, can anyone comment on how I preserve the highest quality picture resolution with a slide show?  If I do use iMovie or Photo to Movie,  the file size should exceed the 4.2 size so, will I have to buy new DVD's which are capable to handle the double layer burn and upto 8 GB?  What DVD's are recommended?  Any preferred brand?  Are there problems with burning with double layer?  I read on this blog of numerous problems.

    DVDs are LOW resolution by today's standards - only about 0.3 megapixels - so there is no way they your images on a TV set will look "High Definition".  See Preparing images for iDVD slideshows at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/6675.html for recommendations on image sizes to use.  Using larger images won't give you better  quality, andf in some cases, will lower you image quality because  the Quicktime resizing that occurs isn't the best.

  • Why isn't there an update for the Google tool bar? I trusted you and dwnloaded current update.

    I just trusted your update and now I am prevented from installing my Google toolbar. What's up with that?

    It is absolutely nuts that I updated to 5.0 and now I'm missing my Google Toolbar and most importantly SPELLCHECK! I never would have updated had I know of this problem. Talk about an essential tool. Come on Firefox! I'll be using another browser until you can get this problem fixed!

  • Why isn't there an override for the following?

    Websites prohibit password saving
    Some websites do not allow for passwords to be saved for security reasons. If you have followed the steps above, but are still not prompted to save a password when logging into a certain website, that site may have disabled password saving.

    I'm not sure what you mean with "Save login info" in the right-click context menu.
    Such a choice can only be added by an extension.
    Websites can change the code at any time, so if you got a chance to save the password earlier then what doesn't mean that it will wok now.
    The bookmarklet should give information about the presence of autocomplete.<br />
    There can be other reasons for not getting that offer like an exception or other problems with the password manager.

  • Boot drive in Bay 3 or Bay 4 will it slow down the startup process?

    If I have my boot drive in Bay 3 or Bay 4 will it slow down the startup process? I know in old PCs it would look for the boot drive by looking each time in a certain order. If the MP did that then it would probably look at Bay 3 and Bay 4 last on its ordered sequence.

    But.... I think there is a but here... Mac OS does still look for other boot drives none the less.
    On a PC, most have an option in the BIOS to set the device types (CDROM, hard drive, USB). and the order of hard drives to look. Meaning that I can have a system on a hard drive that is off line, pop it in, make it the primary boot device and boot from it, and boot quickly.
    Sometimes people will disable a chipset or not enable hardware RAID on the motherboard.
    Startup Disk control panel sets the boot path in nvram and even if you do have 4 boot drives in Mac Pro, it should still boot in 20-45 seconds.

  • I have an I Pad 1 with 64 gigs. It constantly drops me off the Internet for no apparent reason. Is there any fix for this problem?

    My I Pad 1 constantly drops me off the Internet and programs. Is there any fix for this problem?  It started after the last update and continues to get worse.
    Doug

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • I have an older iPod Touch. I charge it but the battery drains real fast. Is there a fix for that?

    I have an older iPod Touch. I charge the battery but it drains real fast. Is there a fix for this? How much would it be to replace the battery? I love my iPod but the battery is always dead.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation, running IOS 6.1.2. I understand you are having problems with your Ipod/Ipad/Iphone, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Its an Old Ipod, give me a break... just get a new one, or leave it always plugged in
    You could also get a new battery (but its not worth it... just buy a whole new unit)

  • IPhone 3GS will not sync calendars because the sync server failed.   Just installed Outlook 2010.  Is there a fix for this?

    My iPhone 3GS could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone.    Just installed Outlook 2010.   Is there a fix for this?

    I am simply lookig for some help not an argument.  I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts.  I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another.  As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP.  This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
    I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue.  I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion.  In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues.  I am able to browse the internet as much as I want.  I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
    In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems?  Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best?  BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
    In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time.  Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. --  Thanks

  • How can I stop the loading of "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox?", which has greatly slowed down the startup of Firefox.
