Firefox 7.0.1 runs slow in text boxes typing on N570 processor

Help!
Also happened on firefox 6.7+!
When i type in text boxes (such as this one!) , firefox runs incredibly slow --- but only on text entry.
A least a second per characater typed!
browsing fine. only typing! INTEL ATOM N570 processor.

Do you have multiple keyboard layouts installed?
It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
* http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258824 - How to change your keyboard layout
Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
* http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/The-Language-bar-overview The Language bar (overview)
* Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar
* You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar
* Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar
* You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application

Acrobat Standard X Running very slow moving text boxes

I am an IT Technician that has a user running Adobe Acrobat Standard X. He mainly does editing with PDF's adding text boxes. When moving a text box within the PDF the program freezes for 30+ seconds and goes into "Not Responding". It always comes back, but should not take this long to drag and drop a text box. I have looked through other forums and tried a couple of things to "speed up" the program a bit. I have gone through the Preferences and unchecked the Enhanced Security option, unchecked the option that does Background Downloading, and changed the Updater to notify befor downloading and installing new updates. Again these are solutions that I found within other forums. At this point I am willing to try anything that could possibly help. I would appreciate any input on this matter. Thank you

After installing Firefox v 22, AppleWorks runs slow and hangs up. Can I unintall v 22 and revert back to Forefox v 21?

I work on a iMac Intel Core 2 Duo - OSX 10.6.8 I rely on using AppleWorks v 6+ (Classic mode -Rosetta) I have over 3000 records in an AppleWorks data base and do not want to lose these records.
Also, I run two Operating Systems on my computer - one (OSX 10.6.8) in my internal HD, another from a 2TB external HD (also OSX 10.6.8). Although I do not recall doing so, I must have downloaded and installed Firefox v 22 on my "internal" HD. Since doing so, AppleWorks hangs up and sometimes requires me to Force Quit the App. However, when using my external HD (which still runs Firefox v 21) when I launch AppleWorks (from my Applications folder on my "Internal HD) I do not experience any problems with AppleWorks. The problem with AppleWorks hanging up or not responding, began only after installing Firefox v 22 on my internal HD. I have no idea why but Firefox v 22 is definitely causing problems with AppleWorks v 6+
Is it possible to revert back to Firefox v 21 (if I uninstall v 22)?

I 'm facing the same problem but I don't want to uninstall better to Roll back to my previous version . 'cause many plug-in ( which is most usefull and important to me ) not supported with my present version V22. like easy youtube .
I want to know what is the benefit if I don't get any better opportunity from upgrade version and also lose my previous version's facility !

After updating to latest firefox computer on internet running slower,taking longer to go to links and sites.also if i click on an email link the link keeps refreshing as mailto and wont stop opening new tabs very quickly,have to shut down to stop it.

since installing latest update,when using internet,email everything has slowed down and is taking long to go to websites to upload pictures to emails.
also when i click on an email link to send email the tab bar keeps refreshing and opening a new tab very quickly all i can read cos its going so fast is mailto this has happened several times on various websites,i clicked on a email us link on grangerhertzog.com yesterday and it did it.

You get that problem if you select the Firefox program to handle a file if you get an "open with" dialog.

Hello Donald.
This kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe-mode] to disable all extensions, themes and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins, themes or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions, themes and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. Also, try the theme you want to have installed so see if that is what's causing the problem. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension/theme, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons. If you want to keep using those problematic add-ons, please contant their author for support.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#try reinstalling Firefox. No data will be lost. You can get the latest version for free at [http://www.getfirefox.com/ getfirefox.com]. If that doesn't fix the problem, proceed;
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix your issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable them to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't work, proceed to the following point;
#update your modem/router software. There have been some reports that some modem/router software may cause Firefox and other browsers to loose performance and/or stability. If updating doesn't fix your issue, try other versions of the software, if possible. If you need support with this, contact your modem/router manufacturer. If this doesn't help, proceed;
#clean up your OS registry, using appropriate software. Make sure you've followed my instructions correctly, but if this all doesn't work, [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles create a new Firefox profile] (this can be temporary, of course) and see if the issues persist. Report here the results, so we can't help you further.

How do I change the font size and color in a text box in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (ctrl e does not work)?

I need to mark up scanned pdf documents with text box comments. I can insert the text box and type text but I cannot change the font or color. When I press Crtl E, no tool bar appears in the menu bar. What does appear in the menu bar is "No current selection". Please advise.

I am already doing that: creating the text box, typing the text, selecting the text i.e. highlighting the text. This morning, for a scant minute, the properties tool bar appeared and I was able to refine the text in a text box. Then it disappeared never to be activated again this morning.
I work half of my weekly hours at this client office and I only have this problem on their pc and adobe software (version 9 pro). When I am home, my laptop and the adobe software (version 10 pro) is fine. I can create the text boxes and refine the format at will with no issues. Could it be a software version and/or update issue? Thanks for any assistance.

Ever since updating to latest version of Firefox it has been painfully slow on my Mac running OS 10.5.8.

Ever since updating to latest version of Firefox it has been painfully slow on my Mac running OS 10.5.8.
Websites just hang, and never get to where they are supposed to go. The status loop on tabs just spins and spins but never loads the site. Go to the same site on Safari and there in a second. It is like dial up slow. Have tried all the troubleshooting tips(reset, delete/re-create profiles, uninstall/reinstall, updated flash) nothing works.
Firefox had been working fine until latest update. What gives?

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Firefox 4 constantly runs slow,even after following the solutions

I have tried the solution pages and help,but firefox 4 optimised for yahoo still continues to run slow. I have never had this problem with firefox 3.6 for yahoo. this is driving me crazy,please help!!

try google chrome 10.x, these kinds of problem often happens to some specific websites. so, you need an alternative sometimes. and sometimes it is the problem of the websites, so calm down buddy. during internet rush hours i.e 18:00-22:00 monday to friday, it may make you unpleasant even with some BIG websites, so don't be that fuss to this.

Firefox is running slow, sluggishly, websites take a long time to load, to connect. I've done everything this board has suggested.

Firefox is really starting to annoy me. Sometimes it runs slow and sluggishly, other times it doesn't. Usually it does though. When I open new tabs, the connection icon will just keep swirling. I constantly get High CPU Useage alerts from my virus protection. I've done everything listed in the below articles. Does anyone have some advice? Firefox didn't use to be like this.
Thank you.

Alright, it's getting to the point where I can barely use FireFox anymore. It's getting worse by the day, I don't understand. Web pages take a LONG time to load, but sometimes they don't....it's hit or miss. But when they do take a long time, they take a long time.
It's getting very bad. I don't know much about computers, safe mode, and all that. It would really help if someone could walk me through what to do, like they would a 10-year old... actually a 10-year old probably knows more than me. Well you get the idea.
I really want to keep using this browser, but if I don't get it fixed I will have to stop. Like I said in the initial post, I've done all the things those two links suggested. It got better at first, but now it seems like it's gotten worse.

Ok, try to clean your PC with [https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download CCleaner], do deep defrag and optimization with [http://www.iobit.com/iobitsmartdefrag.html Smart Defrag], make sure you have space on your primary drive(where your OS is installed), test your memory with [http://www.memtest.org/ Memtest86+]. If this doesn't help probably most painless and fastest solution will be to reinstall your Windows. Also keep in mind that Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, so if you are in position to move to a newer version of Windows would be a right thing to do. If you reinstall your OS, just update OS and install drivers before you install Firefox and test it then without any other software installed.

Since the last automatic update, Firefox has been running slow as molasses, with a refresh box coming up constantly. What can I do to correct this?

Since the last automatic update (approx. one week ago) my Firefox has been running slow as molasses and I keep getting a "refresh" box popping up when the pages get hung up (very often)
What can I do to correct this? I clean my cache out at least once daily - most days more. Virus scan says I'm clear of viruses - Glary Utilities tells me that all changes to my registry have been fixed (sneaky apps trying to get in) I'm going crazy because I am used to my FF being fast! HELP!!!

If you have problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

I have reset firefox earlier today and its still running slow what do I do.

Firefox is running slow and I can't get it to improve any. So what can I do.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Why does the new version FireFox run slower than the old one?

I have a fairly new computer but Firefox runs slower than the older version. Can this be remedied?

That does not sound right. I recommend rebuilding your VI. Beore you do, open the top level VI and press contol-shift-run arrow to perform a manual binary recompile. This makes LabVIEW recompile the whole code. Most times you will not see anything happen but occasionally an error will surface. Be sure to save the VI then rebuild it.
You may also need to reinstall the LabVIEW run time engine and/or LabVIEW. I would start with the run time engine first.
