Firefox hangs after a few seconds

When I open a site like Youtube or some livestreams, Firefox quits working after a few seconds. I can only close it with Task Manager.
I've tried all possibilities from Firefox help, nothing works. The problem seems not to depend on any configurations, Add-Ons or Plugins.
I've deleted Malware and also tried de-installation and new installation, but the problem is still on board.
I hope anyone can help me :-(

i have the same problem..... and i still waiting for an answer...

Firefox hangs for a few seconds when trying to pause videos or skip ads on Youtube.

Hello all!
My problem is that YouTube sort of hangs for a few seconds when I try to pause a video or skip ahead or skip ads. The video freezes while the audio keeps playing until, after say 5 seconds, youtube finally does what I tell it to do.
This doesn't happen if the video is embedded on a different website, nor does it happen on Vimeo, Dailymotion etc. I can play YouTube videos perfectly while using Chrome, IE and a Windows 8 Youtube app I have.
After the initial freeze all commands start working very well, at least until I open a new video.
I noticed that a lot of people are having trouble with youtube while using firefox and I've tried a few things:
- uninstalling and reinstalling flash and java
- starting Firefox in safe mode
- using different antivirus software
- reinstalling Firefox
I read that this might be a problem caused by the whole Google being all buddy-buddy with Adobe thing, but I'm skeptical.
So, is there any way to get YouTube to work properly?
Thanks!

Firefox hangs after a few minutes and freezes whole system -- tried all the help suggestions already

I just updated to the latest version of Firefox and now it hangs after a few minutes of use (maybe when using Facebook)...I tried all of the existing help suggestions and none of them worked. Once it hangs, I can no longer use my machine as it freezes everything. I have to shut down...and even that takes forever to happen. :(

Hello cswatson,
Try clearing your Java cache, and History.
If you're not sure how to do that go here. --> [http://www.java.com/en/download/help/plugin_cache.xml I'm a Link].
If you still have problems, and are running a 64 bit processor you may want to install Waterfox instead of Firefox. On the case that you are running a 32 bit operating system do not install Waterfox. However, if you are running a 64 bit operating system you may want to install Waterfox. If you do install you should update your plugins on the Waterfox Download page below.

Mail hangs after a few seconds

Just this evening, about an hour after I downloaded the MobileMe update, my Mail app started hanging after about 4 seconds. Totally unresponsive, beachball of doom etc requiring a force quit. I've tried most of the suggestions I can find here (deleting To-do lists, turning off synching, moving plists, repairing drives etc) but nothing seems to work.
Logic points to the MobileMe update (I have a new 3G iPhone that seems to be working and synching ok), but I'm kind of stuck with no mail on my main machine and was wondering if there was anything else I could do rather than sit in and wait for an Apple update (providing there will be one).
Many thanks in advance (and apologies if I've pasted the wrong part of the report here -I had no idea what to post)

First of all, don't be trying random solutions unless you know what you're doing and why; you'll create a lot of trouble for yourself, and often it can't be fixed without a radical, time-consuming solution.
You seem to have httpmail running as a Bundle for Mail; disable it and then try starting Mail again to see if that resolves the problem. If so, that means you'll have to delete it, since it is conflicting with Mail and will cause it to hang or crash.

My multiclip preview pane hangs after a few seconds

Uh oh.
This is my first time editing a multiclip with 6 HD streams, and playback hangs after just a few seconds. If i pause and give it a moment to catch up, it will play for a few seconds more.
On the RT button on the Timeline, I have selected: Safe RT, play base layer only (doesn't seem to matter) Video Quality Poor (Dynamic isn't any better), Frame Rate Quarter, and of course Multiclip playback is checked.
I'm working with ingested AVCHD footage in ProRes LT. I already shut down, waited a minute, and restarted the machine, no other programs running besides browser and mail.
I'm wondering if there are any other adjustments I can make so that I can see the multiclip view to do live switching thru this footage.
I'm working with an eSata external drive with an eSata card in the expansion slot. It's the fastest drive I've got.
Thanks for any suggestions (besides buying the Thunderbolt drive) I'd be grateful!

It is highly unlikely your disk system can handle playing back 6 steams of ProResLT.
A serious multi drive RAID run through esata should handle this. A single drive will probably choke.
First set your RT playback to Dynamic - not safe.
Beyond that there are at least three ways to deal with this ...
1. Use ProRes Proxy (or DV) in an offline-online process.
2. Figure out if you REALLY need all six angles. Choose which 4 to use for the main cut (or three if that's all your drive can handle), then output that sequence as a new file using "current settings, self contained". Bring that new file in and make a second multiclip adding in the other two (or three) streams.
3. Acquire a RAID that can push out 400-500 MB/s.

FireFox crashes after a few seconds

Im Running windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit. Fire fox works for about 10 seconds and then just doesnt do anything.
FireFox stays open, but i can open new tabs but nothing works when i click it, the bookmarks tabs do nothing, refresh does nothing, google search does nothing, clicking on links do nothing. I can open as many tabs as i like but once there are two left can cannot close them. The last two dont work like everything else.

Hi Ethan.
Try running Firefox in safe mode to see if some extension is causing the issue. If it fixes the problem, try disabling one extension at a time to see which one it is, although that may be a bit hard of you only have a few seconds... In any case, if the safe mode fixes the issue, then you narrow the issue down by quite a lot. Do that.

Firefox hangs after a few hours. The task manager shows it using 50% of the time, and I don't see where it's doing anything. What is going on?

It will not respond to any mouse clicks or key presses. I use the task manager to shut it down. When I restart, I select the option to restart Firefox with the same tabs and it does that and runs fine for a few hours and then it hangs again.

Take the device to a competent repair person or buy a new one.

Why does Firefox hang after a few minutes connected using ATT on a USB antennae, but IE continues to stay connected??

I've used a USB interface to connect to the internet for several years without a problem. Last month our Alltel account was sold to ATT. They sent us a new USB device, and it works for about 5 minutes, but then Firefox will just hang, and not reload the page, or any page, until we disconnect and then reconnect. On a whim I tried connecting using IE when I was locked up on Firefox, and the connection worked fine. Until then I was blaming ATT, but now I think it is a Firefox issue.

hello, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - please try [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|updating your graphics driver]], or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

YouTube stops on Firefox & Chrome after a few second or none at all but Internet Explorer works?

This just started to happening a week ago.
Internet explorer load the video in a instant.
I reinstall the flash player like 5 times but it seems like it didnt fix the problem.
I have a 50/25MBPS connection so I don't know why it doesn't load.
I can use site like twitch tv with no problem, Its just youtube
Clear the cache and cookies didn't help.
Any idea what is wrong?

IE has its own Plugin (ActiveX) independent of FF and Chrome.
Chrome has ITS OWN plugin as well, independent of the other two.
Firefox uses the (non-ActiveX, non-PepperFlash) plugin.
This is a bunch of stuff, but it's pretty quick to do:
Download the following files by right clicking and selecting "Save target as" or "Save Link as".
Flash Player Uninstaller
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Save ALL files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT RUN anything yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything else, go to your Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLER to remove all instances of Flash Player.
Next, run the ActiveX Installer.
Lastly, run the Installer for other browsers.
Once Flash Player is installed go to: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/#sp
Download BOTH files, the one on the right FIRST by right clicking and selecting "Save target as"... the other by clicking and following the steps to dwonload the FULL ActiveX installer.
Once everything is installed, see:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer to make 100% sure that Flash Player is enabled and NOT being blocked by ActiveX controls.

On Windows 7 64 bit Firefox hangs after about 10 seconds. This was a clean install on a brand new computer.

I have to end it with Task Manager.

I have an old PSUS4 and a Samsung ML-2010R. Both work perfectly so my issues are mostly with getting them to work each time I step up to the next Microsoft OS. The post by wdboer helped me get my Windows 7 32-bit PC connected to my printer over the LAN and via the PSUS4 so many thanks to wdboer.
I upgraded to a 64-bit PC with Windows 8 and followed the same instructions and used the Universal Printer Driver downloaded from Samsung but all I got was the printer to 'wake up' but it printed nothing (a direct USB cable connection worked fine). I finally got the printer to work by;
1. Windows 8 Control Panel
2. Device and Printers
3. Right click on the newly installed printer
4. Click on the Device Options tab
5. Selecting the Printer Model drop down and selecting Samsung ML-2010 Series followed by Apply
When I went back to the General Tab and clicked on Print Test Page, the printer woke up and printed the test page
Cheers, R

Firefox installation made my power saver function misfire - the system goes down after a few minutes of inactivity but then comes right back on again after a few seconds.

My power management scheme: turn off monitor after 2 min of inactivity; turn off hard discs after 5 min of inactivity. doesn't work reliably anymore. Usually, with Firefox installed, the system powers down after the preset times but then comes right back on again after a few seconds. If I restart the machine, my selected power management scheme works properly for a few cycles but then reverts to the mode of turning back on after a few seconds after having shut down.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

Firefox is locking up VERY frequently after every few seconds unless I minimize the window and maximize it again. But then in a few seconds it locks up again, unable to click anything or DO anything

Firefox is locking up VERY frequently after every few seconds unless I minimize the window and maximize it again. But then in a few seconds it locks up again, I am unable to click anything or DO anything and it is becoming extremely annoying! Ya'll just released a new version that I'd hoped would have fixed this issue, apparently not...and I also can't select an option in a drop down box, I have to use my keyboard to do so...
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Yeah I'm seeing this as well. A force quit and relaunch seems to solve the problem for a while.
IMHO the app has just gone downhill in the last few years. Useful tools like browser history from the back button are hidden / rendered useless (click and hold doesn't work so well from a track pad), and it's performance just isn't what it used to be.

When I use Firefox to access the internet an arcade game noise is played through my speakers after a few seconds. This does not happen with IE

I noticed today that when I started up Firefox after a few seconds an annoying arcade game sound (like Pacman) came through the speakers on my pc. I switched to IE and this does not happen. I wonder if there's a virus present? I scanned my pc with COMODO anti-virus and nothing was picked up.

The problem appears to be caused by having the Cool Iris add-on attached to Firefox. I have removed Cool Iris and the problem has gone! I also note that there is now a 'fix' to the Cool iris add-on available for this specific problem

The speed of image searching isn't a problem for me. The trouble is, the automatic zoom function is lightning fast and I find it disturbing to the point that it makes me feel very ill.
I very much want a way of suppressing it.

FF 30.0 hangs for a few seconds when opening new window

It seems like
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/984193
It did not start with 30.0 but I upgraded in the hope that it would solve the situation.
Every time I open a new window FF hangs for a few seconds. It does not hang opening a new tab!
I tried the steps described in the above topic but they did not work.
if I open the console and type
gSnippetsMap.clear()
the result is
undefined.
If I type
localStorage['snippets-last-update'] = 0
the result is
[Exception... "Component is not available" nsresult: "0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE)" location: "JS frame :: debugger eval code :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 1" data: no]
There is no difference if I use "Show a blank page" or "Show my home page" where home page is set to "about:blank" for "When Firefox starts".
BTW, I am using Windows 8.1

Short addition:
After the new window is opened I can type a few characters (max 5) into the searchbar. Only from then the hang begins.
