Firefox hangs with flash

Firefox is hanging, not loading pages or menu commands. Disabling flash solves the problem. I have fresh install of XP with firefox 4 and updated plugins. I have uninstalled flash and reinstalled as suggested in the help with no improvement. I have tried reinstalling Firefox with no results. Just wondering what I should try next

Can you open up your Real Player and tell me what version you have? I think Real Player 15.0.6 is supposed to fix this problem. There was a conflict between Real Player and Flash this whole summer that broke Flash videos. Real Player released a update that might help in your case.
If that doesn't help, I think a addon might be to blame here. So do this:
<br> '''Firefox button <img src=https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/images/2012-03-27-09-22-48-1204f1.png> > Help > Troubleshooting Information'''
<br> (or '''Tools > Help > Troubleshooting Information''')
Then click the "Copy all to clipboard" button then paste it here. It will tell us what addons you have installed and I can see which one might be causing problems.

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 segfaults with Flash content. x64. [Solved]

I'm running 64 bit Arch version 2010.05 and I installed flashplugin. When I navigate to a Flash website Firefox segfaults. It also happens on other pages such as Gmail. Chromium doesn't segfaults with Flash or any other page but Flash doesn't work either. If I uninstall Flash Firefox doesn't segfaults anymore, even on pages that don't use Flash. Any ideas?
Update: I downloaded the 10.1 64 bit alpha from Adobe but it still doesn't work. Chrome doesn't report any problem on the console but Flash doesn't work and Firefox still segfaults.
Thanks in Advance.

I installed 32 bit Flash using nspluginwrapper. Everywhere I read it says that the flashplugin package should install a working 64 bit plugin but it doesn't work. Firefox segfaults with this plugin and Chrome doesn't show any flash and complains about an ELF32 binary.
sand_man: Can you please post your libflashplayer.so so I can try it? Thanks! At least your md5sum to compare.
EDIT: Chrome doesn't complain anymore but still doesn't show any flash. Firefox still segfaults.

Firefox freezes with Flash addon enabled; doesn't freeze with Flash addon disabled.

Running Windows 8, Firefox 18.0.1, plugin Shockwave Flash 11.5.502.146 (current version, according to Firefox plugin check).
Firefox freezes every time when loading a page with Flash content when the Flash plugin is enabled. Firefox does not freeze when the Flash plugin is disabled. Repeatable, tested and confirmed multiple times - freezes consistently with Flash plugin enabled, loads pages perfectly when Flash plugin is disabled (though without Flash content).
When in this frozen state, Firefox is completely unresponsive - displays a blank page, can't type anything, can't click on or move/minimize the window. Must be force-quit via task manager.
Other browsers (e.g. Chrome) do not have this issue with Flash. Have noticed several similar problems reported with Firefox and Flash, but the only solution I have seen offered is to downgrade Flash (and introduce potential security issues). Surely there must be a better option? This is a massive issue for me - Firefox is my preferred browser but I cannot use it while it has this allergic reaction to the Flash plugin.

Downgrading Flash is not a solution. This problem seems to be intractable. It will be the end of Mozilla if they cannot address this issue (or even acknowledge the problem). Firefox needs to play nice with current versions of Flash.

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.<br />
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.

Firefox hanging with script error

firefox 20 has been hanging constantly with a different script error depending on the site visited. "Script: https://s.ytimg.com/yts/jsbin/www-watch-extra-vflEcdvg9.js:329" was encountered on youtube. I have tried safe mode with ad-ons disabled, reset firefox, rolled back versions of flash and java. nothing has worked. I am currently using google Chrome

plug-ins have been updated, no luck, still hangs

Firefox hangs with a "Script not responding" error message; in the meantime there are more and more flashplayer instances running

Recently I receive errors from Firefox at sites that were working fine before, always the same: a script is not responding, and I can wait, debug or stop. Waiting doesn't help (therefore pointless to change the 'dom.max_script_run_time' setting in the config); and also pointless to debug because the problem is not with the script. "Stop" eventually gets firefox to work, until the next error message which comes very soon.
I tried to reinstall both Firefox and Flashplayer, even manually wiped the traces from the user profile and program files. They are the latest 35.0.1 and 16.0.0.305 available now.
=> In the meantime, there are reproducing instances of flash players are spawned and running. They stay running even after firefox is closed or terminated.
=> if I disable the flash player plugin everything's fine except of course flash is not working. If I re-enable it, the problem starts over.
OS is Windows 8.1

Retard, (I know that sounds hilarious, but I don't know your name - no offense please! )
Like you said, if this happens only primarily on one of the many sites, it generally comes down to the type of code on that site.
And after looking at the URL you posted, seems like that page uses a lot of external references - JS and CSS.
Especially the last few lines:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://njcdn.worldsecuresystems.com/CatalystScripts/Java_OnlineShopping.js?vs=b1763.r38875 7"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://njcdn.worldsecuresystems.com/CatalystScripts/Java_Cookies.js?vs=b1763.r388757"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://njcdn.worldsecuresystems.com/CatalystScripts/Java_Box.js?vs=b1763.r388757"></script>
Also, a couple CSS, JS references in the <head> section.
'Display External Files' only disables showing external files - but still loads them.
Can you try removing the external references and try working with the webpage in DW for a few minutes to see if the same problem persists? If it does, we know what was causing your issue.
Also, run your site through W3 validator to check and resolve errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.healthfirst.com%2Facls-kit.html&charset =%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
Let us know how it goes.
Good luck.

Firefox Problems with Flash Button alignment

Hey Forums,
I am using Dreamweaver CS3, for a website. For the page I
used a 3 column elastic with header and footer.
On the left sidebar I have four flash buttons, and whenever I
preview the page in Mozilla Firefox, the upmost button for some
reasons aligns to the right. I have no alignment settings set, and
the alignment for the sidebar is set to left. It only happens in
Firefox, not Safari nor Internet Explorer. I attached the code, if
you need anymore info, ask.

>
http://www.faithdesigner.net/www.faithdesigner.net/pricing.html/www.faithdesig
> ne
> r.net
In the dialog box for the Flash Button, in the link box, put
the full
absolute path if an external page. Including the
http:// part.
http://www.example.com/page.html
for pages inside your site- use the browse to file icon, and
use a relative
path.

FireFox, installed with flash, is freeze on T410 32bit

Hi,
While installing FireFox 18.0.2 on my T410 (Win 7 32bit), it prompts to install Adobe flash.
After installing this plugin, the FireFox is freeze.
It occurs me several times I installed my T410 (I formated it several times).
However, while installing Win 7 64 bit on my T410, the FireFox is OK.
I discussed this with Mozilla technical support and they advised me to check for my display driver.
This driver does not have upgrade (I tried to look for newer version via Device Manager)
What can be the problem?
Regards,
Uriel

Thinkvantage tools does a check automatically for anything not current. Otherwise manually looking at the offering based on the exact model number of the computer on the Lenovo website.

Firefox hangs with script running

Firefox takes about 3 minutes to close down even with all extensions disabled. It comes up with a script error:
Script: chrome://browser/content/sanitize.js:85
I've never used Chrome so I don't know what this is referring to. Any suggestions on trying to remove this?

I have had this problem reoccurring for several "updates" to Firefox. I am currently on 3.6.13 It was so bad I was ready to switch to Chrome. I would get a "script error" - the program seemed to be in a loop (judging by the CPU usage on the task monitor) and I usually had to just kill the process.
I am on XP Home Edition SP3.
Others have pointed to a problem in the extensions -
I looked at my extensions and apparently the browser had updated Java Console 6-7 times - and the previous versions hadn't been deleted. I deleted all but the latest (6.0.21) and the problems seems to have been resolved.

My other computer's Firefox hangs with a Print pop-up.

On Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5, I've been getting 5 or more unattached pop-up windows during reboot. They may or may not be from Firefox.
Today, on my other computer, I found a solid clue that they are from Firefox when a Print pop-up covered the unattached pop-ups. Clicks the PDF drop-down takes me to the Save File pop-up, where no icon clicking does anything but the Cancel. (I has used this a couple days ago).
One of the 5 or more unattached pop-up windows will accept a password entry, but neither icon functions. These windows require the master password for the Software Security Device, whatever that is.

When I hover over the window, it does come up front, but as soon as I press the red "X" it goes immediately back to the main window and acts as if I was trying to close that one. Once in a while it will work, but shortly thereafter, it will just go back into this manner. Quite odd. This is the first time I've truly had any problems with Firefox.
In addition to that problem I have noticed a few things, but one that may be linked is sometimes I'll click a link. Although I haven't specified to open it in a new window, it will do so anyhow. This gets annoying quickly. Usually shutting down Firefox and reopening will fix this (and once in a while just leaving it be for a long time). Somehow, I think this issue is somehow linked to the one above.

Firefox hangs with 100% CPU at (obviously) random times

Several times a day, my Firefox suddenly responds pretty slow and within seconds it no longer responds at all. The CPU usage of firefox.exe goes to 100% and the whole browser seems to be frozen. In some cases, the memory consumption in the TaskManager also increases slowly (about 8KB/s), but not always. However, after 30-60s the problem suddenly vanishes and everything is fine again.
An interesting detail: Firefox uses a lot of memory; I am not sure whether this is normal. Currently, I only have this tab opened, but it still uses 166MB! The peak memory usage even says 351MB, although I did not have more than 8 or 10 tabs open at the same time (no YouTube or similar memory intensive sites).
The problem might be caused by an update to an extension; at least I remember that there was an update shortly before the problem first appeared. However, I do not remember which extension it was. I have disabled almost every extension (only TabMixPlus, Download Statusbar, and TinyMenu are still active), and the problem is still there. It is hard to find the reason because the problem only happens three of four times a day and at random times, so it is hard to reproduce.
Some questions:
1) Anyone has got an idea what might cause these problems?
2) Is there a way to see which extensions have been updated recently?
3) Is there a way to see which extension uses how much of the CPU?
Thanks in advance!

== This happened ==
A few times a week
== about two weeks ago (maybe after an add-on update, not sure which)

Just some additional info:
I just had the problem again, and it even occurred when I did not have any tab open! I did not even use Firefox, but just wanted to start to use it, but it did not respond. There was _nothing_ open, and when I checked the TaskManager, the memory consumption was up to 300 MB, and the CPU was again at 100%. After the CPU was down to 0% again, the memory slowly decreased as well. First, to ~260, then to ~200, now to ~170 MB. Maybe it will decrease even further...

Safari and Firefox seem to have issues with Flash?

Hi - in the past few days every time I try to view a website with video, both Safari and Firefox hang with the beachball and I have to force-quit. I tested to see if it was just taking a long time to load, and it was still the same after an hour. I've read on this forum that Snow Leopard and Flash have some issues, and I've done everything suggested: un-installed Flash then re-installed the latest version, cleared out Safari cache and reset Safari, repaired disk permissions...I am at a loss. Any ideas are appreciated!

Hi,
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.

Make sure Safari is running in 32-bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
If Safari still crashes, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.
