Firefox crashing randomly how can I fix this?

I have already tried restart in safe mode but it still crashes. Installing another profile is not really an option because of my fast dial its not something I can backup and keep the settings. I have the crash reports... I am using Firefox 29 RC1. I already went back to 28.0 final not beta and its still crashing. This just started as you can tell.

'''Please do not downgrade to unsuported insecure versions of Firefox'''
Not updating Firefox is usually considered bad practice.
* Please see the article [[Install an older version of Firefox]] <br /> That includes the links you need for old versions.
* And glance at https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
Once a new Released out and security fixes are made and publicised bad guys take advantage of the exploits and that puts your '''System and Personal Data at an increased risk. ''' <br />Those with strong reasons for using an insecure version and understanding the risks may take appropriate steps to mitigate the risk. Possibly using a Virtual Machine, maybe having a well rehearsed bare metal restore procedure.
Perhaps if you say why you do not wish to upgrade we may be able to suggest a suitable way forward with an upgrade and some sort of workaround.
Or are you talking as an administrator of a network of Computers, in which case a special Release of Firefox may be more appropriate.
If the problem relates to Firefox 29 these articles may help
* [[Learn more about the design of the new Firefox]]
* [[What happened to the Add-on Bar?]]
* [[How to make the new Firefox look like the old Firefox]]
It may also be worth noting that Fx29 now respects the setting to not upgrade until you agree. Firefox 28 upgraded regardless of the setting if you used the ''about'' dialogue to check the version.
Actually, I believe the problem is 29.0.1 since the crashes have only been going on for a few days. I've reverted to 29.0.
In addition, the update facility does not work as advertised. "Check for updates but let me choose whether to install them" installs them without asking. I have had to turn updates off to save myself from further inconvenience.

The updates problem was solved by a fix in Firefox 29. Firefox 28 will update if you Check the Version using about firefox, Firefox will not update without your permission in those circumstances.

    Since this all happening when using an app, you can try doing a reset.

    My daughter forgot her password and now her ipod has locked her out ir says disabled connect to itunes.  The computer she last synced to has crashed.  How can I unlock this ipod? 

    The device will have to be restored but without the last computer it was synced to, that's not a possibility.
    Take the iPod to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.

  • I cannot email a link to any web page from Firefox 22. How can I fix this?

    I am unable to email a link to any webpage from Firefox 22. I have tried everything I can find to fix it. Nothing works.
    There is no longer the ability to right click and send an email link. The "Email link" in the "file" drop down on the menu bar doesn't work either. I even tried one add on program for emailing links. That didn't work.
    If I didn't lose all of my bookmarks, I would reset to the Firefox defaults. I have had to resort to using Chrome to send any links to webpages.
    There has to be some way to fix this. Please help if you can.
    Thanks

    Make sure that you have set a default mail program properly.

    My Illustrator CC 2014 program keeps quitting on me at random times and I can't figure out how to make it stop. I've already tried to redownload it and the problem is still there. I am an art student so I need to use this program regularly on my laptop. Does anyone know how to fix it?

    Did you create that one new or did it already exist on the computer? In that case it might have been corrupt as well.
    When Illustrator can't read the preferences file, it won't work.

  • On my website, in the logo, I have EmergeSense with a shadow. It shows up fine in Safari but not in Firefox ... how can I fix this

    I created the layout and design of my webpage on MicroSoft Word and have been useing iWeb to actually create and publish it. In my logo I have the word EmergeSense and it has a shadow of the word behind and benath it. In Safari it shows up just fine but in FireFox it does not.
    I do have screen shots of the two I could show you but I don't know to up-load them so you can see the difference. I would like it very much if my logo would show up correctly in Firefox but don't know how to approach the issue.

  • Plugin container has made my Firefox virtually useless, how can I fix this before I decide to dump my Firtfox into the annals of history forever?

    My firefox Hangs and crashes permenantly, and in my task manager I often see mutiple plugin containers running although I may be only on Facebook homepage. When I shut down my Firefox window I then have to go to my task manager to End Task manually as Firefox continues to run. I am now starting to use other browsers for quick use of the internet. I have always preferred Firefox but will cease to use it if this problem persists.

  • "In-page analytics" data doesn't display in Google Analytics "Content" screen since updating to Firefox 4. How can I fix this?

    This feature is supposed to show the number of times visitors to your website have clicked on the various pages. It requires some google code in each page (which I have). It worked in the previous version of Firefox and still works in the iExplore browser. It stopped working after the update to FF4.0. No error messages... it just does nothing.

    Thank you very much.
    I scanned my computer and see that it is not a virus problem. The problem lies with FoxNews.com not being compatible with the latest Flash Player or plug-in. I can view on-site videos from within Firefox on all sites except FoxNews. It is the only site that has a huge separating space in the middle of the front page. and that displays a large area of code words where it should have an ad: "clicksor_default_url = '';clicksor_banner_border = '#99CC33'; clicksor_banner_ad_bg = '#FFFFFF';clicksor_banner_link_color = "
    I ran the super bug-killer "ComboFix" (thinking the code was from the "Clicksor" virus) and was relieved to discover that it wasn't a virus.
    I can easily view videos on FoxNews from within Internet Explorer (and there is no "clicksor" code displayed in IE either). The problem lies somewhere within the Firefox version of Adobe's Flash Player /plug-in or FoxNews' incompatible code. Users are being kept up-to-date with the latest Adobe updates, but FoxNews must be using old software and needs to catch up. There must be a lot of people having this problem.

  • Browser window is not opening on my Aspire One Netbook even though Firefox is launching; how can I fix this if I can't access the internet through a browswer?

    Everything on my Acer Aspire One Netbook (with a Limpus Light OS (Linux)) works fine except for a few weeks ago Firefox stopped opening up the browser window. I know my internet connection is fine because I can access my email through the netbook's email interface. Also, I've received messages indicating it couldn't open Firefox because Firefox was already running and I needed to shut down the one running first.

    hello scoop, since these symptoms can sometimes be caused by malware active on a system, please first run a scan with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx microsoft safety scanner].

  • I was sent pi- you know 3.14159 but a lot more characters, and it froze my ipad messages app, when ever I open it, it's just a blank screen and it eventually crashes!:( how can I fix this? I've tried a lot of stuff plz help

    It's froze my ipad messages app. Plz help tell me what to do.

    You can backup the iPad and then do a restore to factory condition which will completely wipe it: Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.  But, before doing that remember, it completely erases everything.
    You then have to restore from a backup...if you have a backup from before the bad message, you can use that and be fine.  If not, you would be better off setting up the iPad as new and then redownload your apps and music...you can do that by going to the app store and itunes and tap the Purchases button and redownload everything.
    You will loose your photos and email, and such in the process, however.  If you have iCloud, put the photos in PhotoStream and then use that to put them back on the iPad.
    Without a good backup from just before the bad message, erasing is going to cause you a lot of work.

    Welcome to the Support Communities! 
    To address this issue, I would suggest restarting and/or resetting the iPhone:

    All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole new Firefox window. How can I fix this?
    Also, Firefox crashes frequently. Is there a fix for this also?

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox 3.6 that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
    For the second issue, the [[Firefox crashes]] support article may help.
