Firefox browser keeps going into not responding mode and the firefox experts continue to "not respond" to the problem. Firefox 11.0 and W7. When will you respond??

Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works find in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
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Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
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.
Now when Firefox hangs, is this randomly, on specific websites, etc.? You can also read [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-hangs https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-hangs]

  • My iPad 2 keeps going into no service mode since upgrading to iOS 8.0 and the same with iOS 8.0.2

    My iPad 2 keeps going into no service mode since upgrading to iOS 8.0 and the same with iOS 8.0.2

    Hi jhatlanta, 
    I understand you are using a cellular iPad 2 and since upgrading to iOS 8 (and 8.0.2) your iPad drops the cellular connection and says, "No Service".
    So you have done step 5 in this list, but please test the other steps.
    If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad
    If you're in your carrier's coverage area
    Follow these steps, testing after each.
    Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Restart your device.
    Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
    Check for a carrier-settings update: Connect to a Wi-Fi network, tap Settings > General > About, and install any available carrier-settings updates. If you can't connect to Wi-Fi, connect your device to a computer that has iTunes.
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
    Contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues.
    Restore your iPhone.
    Best Regards,
    Nubz

  • How do i correct iphone that keeps going into power off mode

    how do i correct iphone that keeps going into power off mode

    The screen will flicker while in lock mode then the slide to turn off screen will appear. This happens without touching any button or screen.

  • I have a 2011 iMac running MAC OS X Version 10.6.8. I get msgs. to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox. When I start the download, it goes into a buffering mode, nothing happens. Also happens when I go to the FF website to download manually.

    Details are above.

    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 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • T430 Optimus keeps going into powersavin​g mode

    While I'm using my T430 I'll hear the Windows "device disconnect" sound and all my displays will go black. A second later, I'll hear the "device connect" sound and the screens come back with all the windows rearranged and I'll see the attached image. I've already tried installing the latest Nvidia drivers, changing Lenovo Power Manager to High Performance, and uninstalling Lenovo Power Manager, but it doesn't seem to have helped. Any ideas?

    In Lenovo Power Manger? All I see for Multimedia settings is "When Playing Video [Optimize video quality, balanced optimize battery savings]". I have it on Optimize video quality already.

  • My (2008) macbook pro, running 10.5.8 runs for about 30 seconds and then goes into deep sleep mode.  After significant difficulty awakening, it runs for 30 seconds and....start repeating here.  It did this once before about a year ago.

    .....and then goes into deep sleep mode.  When it (finally) awakens....it runs for about 30 seconds and.....start repeating here.

    Anybdy got any ideas?

    Power or other problems related to unexpected system sleep, shutdown, lights or fans call for an SMC reset. Read all the steps.
    Before Resetting the SMC
    Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to determine if the issue still occurs.
    Press Command + Option + Escape to force quit any application that is not responding.
    Put your Mac to sleep by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Sleep. Wake the computer after it has gone to sleep.
    Restart your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Restart.
    Shut down your Mac by choosing the Apple () menu from the upper-left menu bar and then choosing Shut Down.
    Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you can remove
    Shut down the computer.
    Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
    Remove the battery (to remove the battery - click here: MacBook or MacBook Pro).
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Still having problems? Replace steps 6 and 7 with the following:
    Reconnect just the MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer,
    Then reconnect the battery.
    Resetting the SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if it's not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time. The power adapter indicator light may cycle off / on once.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

    Any ideas guys?

  • My iphone keeps going into a huge text or zoom mode, how do I get it back to normal?

    I have an iPhone 5S and just upgraded to Yosemite, apparently a big mistake after reading a lot of support items.
    My phone keeps going into a zoom or huge text mode and I cannot get it back to normal.  I also have an iPad that I send and receive messages on so not sure if that is causing a problem, it never was a problem before this upgrade.

    OS X Yosemite is for Macs, not iPhones. Perhaps you meant iOS 8.
    Try tapping twice on the screen with three fingers.
    And/or go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom OFF.
    It has been this way since iOS 5.

  • My new nano keeps going into sleep mode every copy of minutes while music is playing.  I can't figure out how to stop this.  The user guide isn't too helpful.  Any ideas?

    This is usually a sign that your iPod's headphones are not plugged in all the way.  Make sure that you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug.  You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when inserting the headphones letting you know that they have been fully seated.

    My phone keeps going into recovery mode. I've had rest 5 times now. I was told I need a new phone. Any resolution??

    Maybe you should consider that new phone recommendation you got...
    Who told you that?
    Is the phone jailbroken? Was it hacked to unlock it? Has it been physically damaged? Did you get it wet?
    You haven't provided anywhere near enough information.

  • HP B210a goes into a sleep mode if not used for several hours,

    Running my B210a eprinter in windows vista. The printer goes into a sleep mode if not used for several hours.  The power button is slowly flashing dim then bright, and I need to manually touch the printer's screen to enable it to print. If printer not used for several days, the only way I can make it work is to unplug and plug. Any suggestions or help appreciated.  J Rice

  • Mac Tower Pro  10.8.5 keeps going into sleep mode

    Purchased from Apple, refurbished 2012 Mac Tower Pro.  At the same time, purchased a new Dell U2713HM, 27" monitor.
    Have been operating on this new system since about the first week of December 2013.
    Issue:
    The computer has constantly gone into sleep mode after a few minutes of no activity.  I can have iTunes radio playing, but the system still goes into sleep mode.  As  I am typing and moving the curser, the machine stays awake.
    This has caused much frustration because when it goes into auto sleep mode, it quits all programs that I am in, and when it does this, I lose all the work I had accomplished.  It litterally closes everything and goes to sleep in about 2-3 minutes of no activity.
    BTW:  the computer and monitor have all its new OEM cables that came in the box, when I purchased the units.
    Solutions attempted:
    System Preferences — Energy Saver:  computer sleep and display sleep set to "never"  and unclicked the box "Put hard disks to sleep when possible." 
    Dell settings:  Turned off all energy savers.
    Results:
    Nothing.  Problem persists.

    I apologize for the angst.  The problem has cost too much money in lost time and material because when it would automatically shut down after a few minutes, all my work was lost. 
    I misunderstood the terms of the warranty.  Thank you for your input and patience.  Much appreciated.  For the benefit of others that experience this with a new Mac that auto shuts down.  Check the following:
    1.  Go to System Preferences.
    2.  Click on Security and Privacy.
    3.  Click on Advanced  (bottom right corner)
    4.  If the first line is checked (Log out after 5 minutes of inactivity);  uncheck it and then click OK button.
    5.  Be sure to click the lock before existing Security and Privacy.
    Now the machine will cease shutting down programs to go into sleep mode as soon as machine is inactive for a few minutes.

  • New LG Monitor Screen Image Keeps Shifting a few pixels left and right / goes into power save mode

    I just purchased a new LG Computer Monitor from Best Buy today and hooked it up to my PowerMac computer. Shortly after setting it up, the entire screen image started sporadically shifting left and right a few pixels. And then, at seemingly random times, it'll shut itself down, going into power save mode. I checked the cables to make sure they were secure and they seem to be. Could there be some sort of interference that's causing it? Or would it be the graphics card? My computer is only a couple years old. Please help!

    Do you have another computer you can plug the monitor into to test?
