Firefox goes into glitch mode. Please fix this for a future version.

I am having a problem and had this problem for a really long time. Firefox would enter glitch mode. Here is an example:

When I hit the next arrow, it would freeze for a second, and if I hit it multiple times, it would go to another page without me hitting the button. I would like this fixed for a future version.

Start your '''Computer''' in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try '''Safe''' web sites.

  • I'm on Firefox 35 now and Shockwave Flash still crashes and freezes up my Firefox. Please fix this for any future version.

    I wanted this fixed for Firefox 34, but nope. It still crashes with "Shockwave Flash may be busy" and I am getting sick of hitting Ctrl+Alt+Delete to go to the task manager and ending firefox.exe. It's not the 1990's anymore. It's 2015.

    Hi cor-el, I have tried this, and it didn't even fix. God I want this program fixed for a future Firefox version.

  • I just updated 3 addons and now Firefox goes into background mode and I am not able to reach the Tools/Addons to disable any addons.

    Firefox stays in foreground for maybe 10 secs before going into background. I can't reach FF to do anything with FF.
    I have to use Task Manager to close FF.
    I don't remember which 3 addons were updated, but I was notified of updates when I tried to open FF at about midnight this morning.

    hi there i tried the removal of the sessionstore.js file and and fired up the mozilla firefox up again and still no joy from the windows xp machine all other browsers work fine, its just hanging still, reading the article from the link you sent i can't any issues that i am getting but i did manage to un-install the FF8 again deleted any folders and dowloaded V3.6.24 from here http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    then updated from there and all seemed to go well then yet again i got the same issue ,when i open the browser i am unable to type in the search and use the mouse on the File edit etc menus rendering the browser useless so i think its a the update to V8.0 that is causing the issue, when i reinstalled i had no themes no plugins the extensions on the 1st boot ticked the MS .net there was that and java Un-ticked when the browser booted up it was the same hanging for ever . i think i may stick with the older version for now until a fix is available as there is some thing that does not like this new version on that pc... but i hope you can help me to upgrade as its annoying now

  • Firefox goes into offline mode for no reason

    Periodically, with no consistency I can detect, Firefox puts itself into offline mode. After clicking the "try again" button from one to several times, it finally recognizes that there is in fact an Internet, and deigns to connect with it. I have never manually put Firefox into offline mode.

    You can try to create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false.
    You can right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.
    Name: network.manage-offline-status<br />
    Value: false<br />

  • Firefox goes into Safe Mode when I don't want it to

    Sometimes, usually while doing Javascript development, I will quit out of Firefox to escape from a lengthy process (e.g. an "alert" message embedded in a loop). This is a nice feature, BTW, better than having to "force quit," but when I restart it often comes up in Safe Mode, which disables my Web Developer tool bar, Firebug etc. Can I stop it from doing this?
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == I think when I went to FF 3.5

    Once in recovery mode, it is too late.
    For future reference, photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera especially when the photos are very important.
    Have you never synced your iPhone with iTunes? If you have, when was the last time? Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with the iPhone's backup which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process if you have selected to update your iPhone's backup on your computer. Or you can select to have the backup done wirelessly with an Apple iCloud account.

  • HT1535 Please update this for the newest version of itunes.  There IS no device listing on the left side now, and when I try to drag to the "iPod" word in the upper right, it doesn't allow it.

    How to manually sync podcasts or music to an iPod using the newest version of iTunes?  Please advise.  Apple's i nstructions still say to drag to the iPod icon under "devices" on the left, but that's no longer there.  The iPod word appears in the upper right but won't let me drag to it.

  • Iphone 3g randomly goes into recovery mode all the time?

    I have an Iphone 3g version 4.3.5 (8L1). It works fine and i've never dropped it or anything like that. But the first time the problem happened i had just got done sending a text, pushed the lock button, and put it in my pocket. Then a few minutes later i pulled it out to check it and it wouldnt turn on. I held the lock button down and the connect to itunes icon came up, but nothing else. No emergency call option or anything. it wouldnt go away. i connected to itunes and it said it was in recovery mode. I tried to restore it but it came up with an error. i left it and tried again later. i restored but some things were erased. then it worked fine again. but later that night it did it again. so i just plugged it into the charger. in the morning i tried turning it back on again and it turned on without the connect to itunes icon. worked fine all day. but it does this every now and then. when i plug it in it goes back to normal after 10-20 mins. its annoying tho and if im not home my fone is stuck like that until i get back. why does it keep randomly going into recovery mode?

    1.  The latest iOS version available for the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1, not 4.3.5.  Do you actually have an iP3GS or was your iP3G hacked to install 4.3.5?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939
    2.  "I tried to restore it but it came up with an error."  What EXACT error?
    3.  "i restored but some things were erased"  What "things"?  Did you get an error again.  Were you restoring as new or using a backup?
    4.  Did you ever restore the phone as NEW without using a backup?

  • Shockwave Flash may be busy or it may have stopped responding error. Can the Mozilla team fix this for Firefox 34?

    Hello people, sometimes I would get the message "Shockwave Flash may be busy or it may have stopped responding". There is no way I can fix this. I have tried Google and they don't show tutorials on how to permanently fix this. What year is this? 2002? Not it's not. It's almost 2015. Can you please fix this for Firefox 34 or newer?

    Shockwave Flash is an Adobe product - it's up to them to fix it. All we can do here at Mozilla Support is offer suggestions that have worked for us and other users.
    Have you tried Adobe Support?

  • When I open Firefox, my computer goes into safe mode. How do I fix this problem?

    When I open Firefox to do some browsing, my computer goes into safe mode. When I close Firefox browser, then it goes back to normal. I know there has to be a simple fix, but I have not found it.

    Check that you do not run Firefox in compatibility mode or with a reduced screen resolution.
    You can check that in the "Compatibility" tab in the Properties via the right-click context menu of the Firefox desktop shortcut.<br />
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.

  • Using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a "not Responding mode" I have to wait until it times out.

    using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a '''"Not Responding" mode.
    I have to wait until it times out. Happens every time I log on.
    I am using windows 7, HP lap top. I am using MSE for virus detector. This may have started sense I switched to MSE.
    I am not sure.

    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.

  • My scroll feature of the Lenovo ThinkPad(red scroll) is not working in the new Firefox 4. It was working fine in 3.6. Can you please fix this as this is very important feature.

    The scroll feature(middle button) is not working on the new firefox 4. So because of this I need to move the scroll bar to move the page. This is very irritating problem, if you are a guy who uses the middle button to scroll. Can you please fix this..
    Thanks!!!

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.
