Firefox hangs when I visit a wordpress 3.1 page in a theme and update it

Hi,
I use wordpress 3.1. I use a theme and sometimes (unexpectedly) when I try to update the page firefox hangs. Sometimes I can force quit, sometimes not. Upon restart it signals another version is running, this is not the case. I cannot find the file in the library section of my mac to remove the profiles file, because it is not visible as such
All other browsers do not respond anymore. I have to restart my computer. On my Iphone I do have internet so this is not my network
I tried installing, deinstalling and even updating to the beta and going back to cureent version again...
Please HELP I am going nuts ;-)

Hi Jumpman,
Thank you for your question. In order to clarify: the mobile bookmarks have their own folder by default. Check out the Bookmark Manager in Show all Bookmarks.
Also, there is a new version of sync. Make sure you are all set up with the new account with these instructions: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

Why does Firefox hang when I try to open yahoo? It also hangs after I use it for a little bit.

When I try to open yahoo Firefox will hang and when I try to restart it will close but stay running. It seems to have started when yahoo went to the new version.I reset my screen resolution to 1152 by 864 pixels like yahoo said no difference. Firefox will also hang if I go to several web sites with out going to yahoo. I changed my home page to Hotmail instead of yahoo and it will open just fine. Any help will be appreciated. Rodney.

Firefox hangs on startup in normal mode and safe mode, won't start in reset mode

using FF 26.0
using windows 7 home premium v 6.1 (latest)
My problems started after loading FF 26.0. If I start FF in regular mode it hangs. Same thing happens when I start in safe mode. I can shut FF down (while it is hung) by clicking the X in the top right corner.
When I start FF in safe mode and choose reset FF, it hangs without FF ever appearing; I have to shut it down using task manager. After shutting down in reset mode, I can start FF in regular mode and everything works fine. However, stopping FF does not shut it down. I have to use task manager to shut it down. Then I am back to square one when trying to start FF, i.e. reset firefox, hangs, task manager shut down, then start FF.
When FF is running, I can open a new FF window.All my addons are up to date. I have reinstalled FF 26.0, three or four times.
I have cleared cache and cookies.
I have scanned for viruses and rootkits etc. with microsoft security essentials and spybot.
I have been a happy user of FF for more than a decade and have never had a problem like this. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!

Firefox hangs -- no fixes work -- even if I uninstall it, it stays open in task manager!

UPDATE 2: Disregard update 1: The problem's still there: If the computer goes into sleep or hibernate, Firefox hangs when I wake it up and the problem proceeds as described. I think it's something to do with Firefox sync and/or various add-ons. I suppose I should now try the long process of gradually allowing sync permissions and add-ons until I find the particular one(s) that are causing the problem but I'd prefer not to! Any other sugestions?
UPDATE: This problem now seems to be fixed. I tried a clean install and it seems to be working, so far. The only difference is I'm no longer using AdBlock plus (coincidentally and unrelatedly), so it's possible that's what was causing the problem.
I'm running the latest vesion of Firefox on Windos 7 (32bit). It always works fine for the first few webpages but then hangs forever. Specifically, it appears to be loading the webpage, but nothing happens, not even the 'failed to load page'.
If at this point I close Firefox, it gives me the 'Firefox is running but not responding' message. If I try and close Firefox from task manager (which continues to show it using a big chunk of memory -- bigger than when it's actually running!), nothing happens.
At this point I'd tried all the obvious things: Refreshing Firefox, disabling add ons, etc. (there's no reason this should've been the problem since I use sync to run Firefox on Android and on another Windows 7 computer (64bit)). So I tried to uninstall Firefox, then reinstall it. When I went to run my newly-installed browser... Firefox was STILL running! I tried this again, from scratch, and found that it really was still open according to Task Manager, despite not appearing in the list of installed programs in the Control Panel!
So to summarise:
1) Firefox stops working after a while and hangs
2) It refuses to close even if it isn't actually on the PC anymore
3) The only way for me to fix this, so far, is to reboot my computer every time Firefox hangs... Which is all the time.

Anyone with very similar problems, please see my posts above.

===Hi berndf,===
Sorry you are having problems.
I know this can not be affecting everyone. I have tried Fx36.0.1 on Windows 7 and do not notice any particular problems, although it may possibly sometimes take a few minutes for Firefox to fully close down. I do not think there is a very big surge in this sort of question being seen on the forum.
If you don't mind please start your own question, that way we get your full details and can try to solve your problem.
It is probable that there are multiple possible causes of this sort of issue.
I often try to avoid using Windows. Must admit I am not sure why processes may exist but not allow Task Manager to kill them (Presumbly we are talking ''firefox.exe'' here running under your own user name and not some system process)
That is straying into a Windows topic, but it is directly relevant. Any Windows expert wish to enlighten me please ?

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.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

FireFox hangs up for a long time on most pages and sometimes never loads them. This is new phenomenon. What can I do to resolve this issue?

I attempt to open up a site. Firefox hangs for a 20-30 seconds on most sites and sometimes never opens the page, despite leaving it open for a long, long time. I find that if I go up to the address bar and hit "enter" on the page I'm trying to go to that most of the time I can then load the page after a couple of tries. This is obviously annoying and never used to happen. I'm looking for a fix. Thanks!

I had done that already. I brought it down to 30, which was recommended in another thread.
For most sites, Firefox works fine. But some of the primary sites I use for work hang up for long periods of time and frequently never load. I've tested the same sites with other browsers and they load quickly, so it is a Firefox issue.
Please help me keep Firefox! Thanks!!

Safari (and Firefox) hang on Flash-Pages for main-account

Since Easter (when I took the last batch of upgrades) Safari and Firefox hang.
I narrowed the test down to the following web-page:
http://www.sunfleet.com
* The page does not load completely - after a little while I get this spinning ball and need to kill the hanging Safari-process.
* The same web-page works flawless on a second account.
This is what i tried so far after reading the communities:
* Checked the safari-preferences, switched off auto-fill, security settings allow loading of plug-ins.
* Executed Onyx 2.1.4 - check disk, check and repair rights, run scripts
* deinstalled Flash and reinstalled it (10.0.45.2) according to the instructions on the Adobe Support Page
* manually removed the Flash Player folders in:
Home/Library/Preferences/Macromedia
Home/Library/Caches
The error still prevails.
It would be great if someone could instruct me what to do next.
I have a backup via time-machine, but I really don't know what to restore.

Hi Carolyn!
In the mean-while I removed all the Internet Plugins that were registered under the main user:
real-player and move-media-player are now gone.
Still no change. I made a new trace below - I wonder, what is different on the main account compared to the other user. Could it be fonts ?
Best regards
Stephan

Firefox hangs when trying to save a file, even after removing firefox and reinstalilng afresh

I recently experienced firefox hanging/freezing indefinitely when trying to save files, such as pdf files. The same pdf files open fine within the browser if I do not select "save link as...", but the problem occurs when I try to save such a file. The problem is similar regardless of the file type (e.g., .mp3, .txt). Not only did I go through the recommended solutions that mozilla suggests when file downloads hang, but I uninstalled firefox completely (removing all files with user settings), and then reinstalled firefox afresh without any plugins or add-ons, and I still have the same file save problem. It may also be worth mentioning that this problem does not occur in internet explorer or chrome. Maybe a system file that firefox uses got corrupted (?), but I don't know which one or how to repair it if that indeed is the problem.
My system is running XP, and I have McAfee AV installed (which has not been a problem in the past).

Early on I tried starting firefox in safe mode as one possible fix, and that didn't solve the problem. I just tried again right now with the fresh installation, and still no luck.
Any other ideas?

Firefox hangs up on download on Mac OS 10.9.2.

I got a notification to download the latest version of Firefox, but it hung up partway though.
I went on line for info and was advised to trash the old version and download a new version. That still doesn't download. Now what?????????

Thank you!

Why does firefox hang up and say it "got confused", when I try to switch from using facebook as myself to using facebook as a page I manage?

firefox hangs up and says it "got confused", when I try to switch from using facebook as myself to using facebook as a page I manage.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

Firefox hangs many times..

Firefox hangs many times.It's very annoying. It crashes after a pop up which says :
(Warning: Unresponsive Plugin; Shock wave flash may be busy, or it may have stopped responding.)
I updated the flash player another day but still this problem continued. Some other day a similar kind of pop up came but it didn't said anything about Shock wave flash but it is a script problem.Firefox always hangs because of some script problem. When i open Windows media player, Photoshop on the other side..Firefox hangs. I never had any problem with Firefox before.

The 2 plugins which are out of date are java-deployment-toolkit and Adobe Acrobat.I never use to update them.Can that cause this problem too ?

Why does firefox hang when opening and takes several minutes to come up?

Why does Firefox hang for several minutes before coming up?

I am also having this problem. When trying to reboot, I get an endless cycle of the BIOS screen, then "MACHINE ERROR", then back. Running the same dmesg command as snoxu results in a similar error message. I am forced to shutdown by holding the power button. Upon rebooting, I get an error message that all extensions have been turned off (using Gnome Shell). Then I have to logout and login.
Shutting down and then restarting works fine.

== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Not sure when it statrted

Hi.
When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.
