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?

Was it installed before? Does it show up in Software Update?
Do other updates show up there (realizing that Lion is not getting all the updates anymore as it is no longer being supported).

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.

HT5188 Nearly every time I buy a VPP app and download the spreadsheet there are multiple redemption codes that say that they are invalid! HOW can a code I am getting directly from apple be invalid!!!!!!!! Seems like your system has A LOT of flaws.

Nearly every time I buy a VPP app and download the spreadsheet there are multiple redemption codes that say that they are invalid! HOW can a code I am getting directly from apple be invalid!!!!!!!! Seems like your system has A LOT of flaws.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

How can I stop Firefox from 'talking' every time I click a new item on my laptop screen?

Without my doing anything, all of a sudden my Firefox started talking every time I click something on my laptop screen. Example: I clicked the link that took me to this page. Firefox said "new window... Firefox menu ... Ask a New Question ..." I don't need this, it interferes with all that I do that requires my speaker turned on. How can I stop this?

You can also manage all permissions on the about:permissions page via the location bar. 
Use "All Sites" to set the defaults.
You can open about:xxxx pages via the location bar like you open a website. 
Firefox uses the about: protocol to access internal Firefox (setting) pages.

Downloaded Firefox yesterday. Every time I open the Firefox browser, it starts in Safe Mode even though I have shut down and restarted my computer several times

I have Windows OS. I downloaded Firefox yesterday. Every time I open the Firefox browser, it starts in safe mode. I have restarted my machine several times -- Firefox still starts in Safe Mode. My favorites from IE copied to Firefox fine, and Firefox is now my default browser...it just keeps opening in Safe Mode.

I downloaded the toolbar. When I was done using the computer, I put it to "sleep." The next time I "woke" the computer and went to Firefox, the toolbar was gone. When I downloaded the toolbar again, I got a box in the upper left hand corner of the screen stating Firefox BLOCKED the toolbar, and did I want to allow it. There was NO option to allow always-it's just a one time deal. When I shut down for the day, I expected it to remain, but no-next time I fired up firefox, NO TOOLBAR. I pulled up Inbox dollars again, clicked on download toolbar, got the box stating it's blocking the toolbar, etc, etc, etc. Unless Firefox upgrades daily, or in some cases, several times in one day, I'm going to stick with my description that the toolbar magically disappears EVERY TIME I OPEN
FIREFOX!!!
I don't profess to be any type of computer whiz, I'm totally self-taught, and it's not beyond the realm of possibility that I'm doing something wrong. I've been using Firefox for about a week, so I'd welcome any help!

HT1349 My ipad2 closes the mail app while I am typing an email to send. Happens nearly every time.

My ipad2 closes the mail app while I am typing an email to send. Happens nearly every time.

First of all quit the mail app and all of the apps that have frozen. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the mail app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the app. Close the other apps the same way. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
What I would try next is to delete the email on the server in your web mail account using Safari or another browser. Then when you go back to the mail app - if it opens ok - and the if mesaage is still there in the inbox - swipe on the mesaage - left to right - in the list on the left side - and hopefully the red delete button will pop up. Hit delete to remove it from the inbox. Do the same thing when you go to your trash folder in that email account - swipe the message to delete it.

Using Windows vista and Firefox 4 hangs almost every time

I have just installed Firefox 4 and now almost every time I open Firefox it hangs. I have checked all the suggested solutions but nothing has had any effect.

Hi,
Try '''disabling graphics hardware acceleration'''. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to '''restart Firefox''' in order for this to take effect, so '''save all work first'''.
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please '''check for updates for your graphics driver''' by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* '''[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]'''
* '''[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]'''
Also try to clear the firefox cache etc.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the '''[[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]]''' article.

Firefox 6 crashes every time I try to start it, safemode aswell. 5 worked perfectly but now I can't download 5 again

Firefox automatically downloaded and installed version 6 without my authorisation and now it has stopped working. I can't get it to run in safemode either. I have tried a total uninstall and reinstall but I get the same problem. Every time I select it a small crash window appears instead of the browser that asks me to report the crash. Now I can't find a link to re download version 5.

Here is a link for all the older versions of FireFox:

Firefox freezes ('hangs') virtually EVERY time I open a second browser window. How can this be fixed?

I recently (about a month ago) downloaded the newest version of Firefox and ever since, the browser freezes virtually EVERY time I open a new Mozilla browser window. I did not ever have this problem in the past.

Are you using the Default Theme? ''If not, switch to the Default Theme.''
If it isn't a problem with a 3rd party Theme, try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.''
# You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

MOzilla Firefox hangs with every command or website I visit

My firefox hangs up with every website i visit. It takes forever to load pages and stalls all the time. I have cleaned all cache and I have even uninstalled and installed the latest version. I cannot seem to get it to operate like it used to on my PC. I am runnning windows 7 and I double checked my machine for virus and malware.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Software Update not working properly)
Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder. 
You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present.
Vista:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
You may need to remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

My firefox browser crashes every time I confirm a bid on e bay?? How do I resolve this problem? Is there a nuumber to call for technical support? Thanks

If I am on e bay, there are times that I place a bid near the end of the bidding process. It has never been a problem until last year, but now every time I place a bid, the second I confirm the bid on e bay, Firefox crashes and I have to reboot?? it. I loose valuable time and on more than one occasion have lost outbidding another buyer because Firefox crashes. I called E bay for assistance but they say it is related to Firefox program and I need to call them. I cannot find any way of contacting Firefox by telephone. How do I get assistance with this matter?? Thanks

If this also happens when you enter a search term from the Firefox [[Search bar]] you should post a topic in one of the malware removal forums listed at the bottom of the [[Searches are redirected to another site]] article.
P.S. I removed your e-mail address from this question to protect you from "spambots" that harvest e-mail addresses from webpages.

Open PDF file with Adobe Reader - Asks me what Firefox should do - every time

Hi,
Everytime I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file'.
I have Open WIth Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the 'Do this automatically...' box checked.
So it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

Hi - I don't want it to always ask; I want it to never ask.
Having said that, I changed my option setting to 'always ask' and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the dialog box opened asking me what to do. The 'Do this automatically...' box was unchecked as expected.
I checked the 'Do this automatically...' box and now Firefox no longer asks.
Weird way to solve the problem, but it appears to work fine now.
Thanks

Firefox hangs nearly every time I am working in Blackboard.
