Firefox 7 hangs at random times, and sticks on connecting a lot
I've been supporting Mozilla Firefox for 5 years straight - and recommending it to over 50 friends, but since Firefox 7, nearly all my friends (including me, and my family) have experienced random freezes, and stuck on connecting at random times (mostly when there's more than 3 tabs loading), this never used to happen before and because it happens on lots of different computers I've looked at, it must be a browser issue. I've seen that lots of people have had this issue, when's this going to be fixed? I hate to move to Google Chrome, but I've had to!
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Firefox hangs at random moments and uses 25% of the CPU (one core)
Hello,
On random websites and moments, I notice Firefox using 25%CPU. I have 4 cores. I don't know what's causing it, and it is pretty annoying. It just hangs and becomes unresponsive for about ~ 30-45 seconds. After that it happily continues without problems. It doesn't actually crash, it only hangs.
I think it's something with an extension that's causing it. I have this as well on my laptop, that has Hyperthreading. (this PC doesn't) - On the laptop it uses 13% CPU when the same issue appears.
I have Firefox 5 fully updated. Addons I use:
Ghostery
Adblock Plus
HTTPS Everywhere
WOT (Web of Trust)
I use on both computers Windows 7 Professional. One of them is English, the other Dutch. Both legal and with all updates.
I also have the Flash and Silverlight plugin, up-to-date.
If there's any other information you need please let me know. Would like to have the issue resolved :)
Thanks,
NielsNope - no fix yet :( I have installed a few new addons though: HTTPSEverywhere, Ghostery and NoScript. I'm not sure which one is causing it, but one of them caused the problem to drastically reduce. I have it once a month now, maybe.. Before that I had it multiple times a day.
It's probably Ghostery or Noscript fixing it, due to the things they forbid from loading :)

Firefox freezes at random times and I have to end process, restart to use it
I have no problems with running Firefox.
I got a new laptop, downloaded Firefox and have had problems with it randomly freezing. It will attempt to load a page, freeze and won't unfreeze no matter how long I wait. I have to open the task manager and end the firefox.exe process to close the program and restart it.
My initial belief was that I may have downloaded a wrong bit version.
I'm currently running Windows 7 with a 64-bit operating system. I am running Firefox 3.6.13.
Any help?It sounds like you are getting in a hurry.
If you force Firefox to close in a hurry, then it won't normally start until you re-start the computer. There are ways around this, but I'm not going to go into them right now.
None-force way to close Firefox down: Close the program and wait. Do something else. Firefox appears as if it is closed, but it's not. Firefox cleans out cookies and it's cache after you close it. That takes a few minutes. You can't restart it while it's doing house cleaning.
After it is done, then you can restart Firefox normally. You can watch it in the Task Manager.
The same applies if you are installing javascript. You have to wait a few minutes.
As for running it with multiple tabs, I usually have 5 or 6, or more, tabs open at a time. Have no idea what the problem is there. Firefox needs special permission by use of a pop-up option to close with multiple tabs open. -
Firefox hangs at random times, even with all plugins disabled.
I get a white screen with the Windows circle that indicates Firefox is busy. On the bottome left, it says "waiting for XXX," where XXX is a hostname, usually some kind of ads server. Then it says Firefox stopped responding.
First, try to reset Firefox. [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]. This simple step will eliminate many Firefox problems with only one click.
After this, Update to Firefox 14. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections. -
Firefox hangs nearly every time I am working in Blackboard.
I teach on line using Blackboard. Since installing Wndows 7 Firefox hangs nearly every time I am working in Blackboard...and this is every day. Firefox doesn't hang on my home desktop using Vista 64. I have all the latest Java updates and have continually queried Blackboard for a solution with no result.
Could you describe the new window in more detail? For example, is it an ad for something, or a login page, etc.
Since this occurs so regularly, I think it would make sense to try browsing for an hour in Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether that makes any difference. This will temporarily disable your extensions, which are the type of add-on most likely to cause mischief.
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still work)''
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference? -
Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?
why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it? The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot. Can anyone advise me please. It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!
What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

Firefox behaves REALLY badly at random times and I'm worried about it?
So here's what happens. This happens at random times, unexpectedly. I click on a new link, any link, and suddenly, Firefox blares up, automatically turns to private browsing, and goes to a bunch of random websites.
Then, it lands on ''www.xnxx<!-- -->.com'',(<sub>'''edit''', un-linked -J99</sub> ) which I have identified to be a pornography website. After that, it suddenly picks on a random porn video and crashes before the video plays.
This really worries me, because just before this first happened, I had done a quick scan with both Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro, and there was absolutely NO problem.
Not only that, I had gone only to trusted websites.
I'm a high school sophomore, so this could turn out REALLY badly for me if someone sees this happening and thinks that I'm TRYING to watch that stuff.
I have already sent a crash report to Firefox and included the website that I crashed in, which is the porn website. I haven't sent any other details, though.
Could I be getting hacked? I don't think so, because this only happens with Firefox; Chrome, Opera, Maxthon, and IE don't have this problem.
I'm running Firefox 15.0.1 in Windows 7 x64 (why the crash report said Windows NT x86, I have no idea).
PLEASE help me fix this!On looking at your System Details aside I note that you include a Crash ID.
That particular crash is probably related to use of Norton software. You may find that you can use the Norton security software without crashes if you disable the '''Norton Security Safe '''feature (Please confirm - or otherwise - that you are using that ). Note I am not suggesting you turn of the security software, just the utility/toolbar.

I've had problems with both FF 5 and 6 tabs hanging at random times, how can I fix this?
Using Windows 7, 64 bit, Firefox 6...all plug-ins are up-to-date...I've checked flash, java, video display drivers, windows updates, run virus scans, checked for malware, cleaned temp files and profiles...all is up-to-date...still at random times on any website for about 30 seconds i get a not responding tab...if I wait it out then it will come back just fine. It happens with one tab open or several open and just happened as i was typing this. Add-ons i'm running: Adobe Acrobat 10.1.0.534, Java Platform SE 6 U26 6.0.260.3, Quake Live 0.1.0.433, Shockwave Flash 10.3.183.5, Silverlight Plug-In 4.0.60531.0........Extensions: Adblock Plus 1.3.9 and DownloadHelper 4.9.5. Thanks for your time and I hope to get this resolved.
Have narrowed it down to flash, java or adblock plus. Only 3 plug-ins i'm running. All are up-to-date.

I'm running Window 7, on a Dell XPS L501X using an Intel Core i& Processor with a 64-bit OS (trying to give some hardware info, however hardware illiterate I may be.)
This issue started less than a week ago, before I updated to version 6.0.
Firefox would, at random it seems, not respond to user input in the form of clicking, scrolling, what-have-you. when clicked the first time the window (any number of them), would wash-out a bit and get a (Not Responding) added to the title. It will remain like this for 10 second to almost a minute.
I did go through each and every "Firefox hangs" suggestion and none of them fixed the issue.
This happens even when there is nothing being loaded, on websites with nothing TO load really. This has grown increasingly annoying, and the only articles I can find that even address this problem online suggest just switching browsers.
I'd like to avoid that since Firefox is fantastic and, so far, has meet and exceeded all my expectations and made my overall Internet experience so much better.
This issue occurred twice while working on this inquiry.
Please help.I checked the add-on manager; Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.510.13 10.51.2.13 (two separate numbers, but shown on the same line) is set to Ask to Activate, along with a warning to use it with care. However, when I click for More Information I am told that it is blocked without any suggestion for how to unblock it. Java Platform SE 7 U51 10.51.2.13 is set for Always Activate, and there is no prompt for More Information. I recently installed the most recent version of Java; this was when the absolute inablility to use it began (this applies to the NYTimes Chess Player, the Acrostics program, and possibly others; I can still do the Sudoku, although with a warning when I first use it at a particular session). I have checked the articles mention in cor-el's response, but their application to my problem is not clear. On question, however--are the Java versions showing in my add-on manager the most recent ones that I just downloaded? If not, how do I get add-on manager to recognize the most recent versions (which, according to Java, are the only versions on my computer). Thanks for your help.

Firefox hangs when accessing video and the process has to be killed
Relatively new problem. Seems to affect version 5 as well as older versions. Running current version of Adobe Flash. Firefox hangs COMPLETELY. No buttons of any sort are active. Have to use procexp.exe to kill Firefox. Just before the hang it says one of the following: Waiting for AD-g.doubleclick.net or Waiting for Motifcdn2.doubleclick.net or Waiting for Static.inplay.tubemogul.com or Transferring data from S0.mdn.net. If I leave machine running with Firefox hung in this state, the machine eventually gets Blue Screen Of Death. None of this happens when I use Internet Explorer to access exactly the same sites and videos (Youtube for example but the problem is NOT confined to Youtube. It seems to randomly occur even in yahoo videos.) I am a software engineer with only 45 years continuous experience writing scientific software so it could be me? :-) I've tried Firefox 3.6.8, the update to that (was it 3.6.18 or something), and Firefox 5.0. Also tried an older version of flash but nothing seems to help. Again Internet Explorer is NOT having these problems. I will be using IE as primary until whatever is wrong is fixed... Darn! I really liked FireFox... Thanks!
At this point we want to pinpoint exactly where in your code this behavior is originating from. Try running the included examples which can be found here:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio\CVI\samples\IMAQ\Display
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MeasurementStudio\CVI\samples\Vision\1.GettingStarted
and see if you experience the same behavior. If we still experience this, then we know that it is a setting within the functions that we need to change. If not, we know that it is somewhere else in the code of the bigger project which is the culprit.

IPhone 4s with latest software cancels sync at random times and doesnt display all music
iPhone 4s with latest software cancels sync at random times. When I manually manage music and re-sync it it still cancels the sync half way through, but shows all songs I manually copied on the phone within iTunes. On unplugging the songs dont display.
Have already tried changing the language, doing a hard reset, updating the itunes software, unchecking all songs and only checking the songs I want synced, deleting the songs that the sync stops at from iTunes. Still doesnt work.
Any ideas? Not too bothered about the syncing part if necessary I can manually move music I just need to know how to make it display on the phone when it is not plugged in to the computer?
Dont say wipe the phone and start again thats not an option for me.
ThanksInstead of deleting I just re-imported everything over the top so iTunes has the links again. Now more songs have imported but when I get to a certain group of songs it cancels the sync.
I can see all the imported music I import on my phone but most of it is not clickable to play.
What happened originally was I cancelled a sync mid way, since then when iTunes tries to sync it always cancels at a certain point. Is there a way to effectively clear the cache of iTunes so it doesnt remember cancelling the sync before. I have tried updating iTunes and it doesnt work. Maybe if I uninstall then re-install?

Firefox crashes at random times
Hey, over the past couple of months Firefox for Windows (8.1) has been crashing more and more. There's no obvious reason for it that I can detect.
I'll just be browsing the Internet, reading an article or something and then it will suddenly just freeze. I'm not even able to ctrl-alt-del to shut it down manually, Firefox just freezes on me, and it's clear that it's struggling to process something as it occasionally will flicker a little as though it's trying hard, but it just stops. There's an outside chance it's my computer in general to blame, but it only ever seems to happen when I have Firefox open (and I don't always have Firefox open).
I have the most up-to-date version (37.0.2). Here's a few of the most recent crash logs:
bp-b5e763f2-f2a6-4b35-8856-f3e112150424
bp-f5b4bea4-9ec5-48ac-b70d-ece952150423
49a5259d-42b9-48cd-bf94-bc46695d3571
0042f953-ec91-4fed-90da-2a2e9e3b6aab
Most of these logs mean nothing to me, so happy for one of you smart guys to parse this for me. Thanks.The only other situations I can find with this exact crash reason were problems with the computer itself or video drivers and not Firefox. This could be a corrupt RAM issue or a corrupt file system. It could also be a video card bug, since the crash is actually happening in the UI part of the program.
I would try 1. Testing your RAM, 2. Doing a file system check, and 3. Updating graphics drivers.
If any issues are found during any of those steps, I would fix the issue and then fully uninstall and re-install Firefox after fixing the issue. -
I have an iPhone 5 that just started to shut off by itself. Any suggestions why?
Hi there wy lassie,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

Every time I attempt to connect to the internet I get a dialogue box that asks do you want to allow this programme to make changes? The publisher is Mozilla, and it also tells me that it relates to Firefox software updater. Never had this until about two hours ago! Also seemed to relate to a crash of McAffee, which happened at around the same time.. Don't know much about computers, but what I do know is that this has only just started... Help...???
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
