Firefox in WinXP vs. in Linux

I'm running archlinux exclusively at home. Firefox takes ages to start even though my home comp is newer than the comparison machine running XP.
I checked out the memory consumption in each machine. At home firefox in Linux takes about 75MB. At work running FF in XP takes ca. 36MB.
What takes?

That is really weird... In my experience, Firefox has memory leak problems on Windows but not on Linux. And on my machine (2.66 GHz Celeron D, 5200 RPM hard drive w/ udma5 (DMA on), 384 megs DDR 333) it takes 2 seconds to start. It usually takes 20 megs of RAM or less, 30-35 max last I checked.
Are you using GNOME or KDE? If you use KDE and the GTK-QT engine for GTK2 apps, that will slow those apps down massively...
(Not sure about whether it affects RAM use though. Also, I have no idea how Metatheme works as far as slowing of apps is concerned.)
Could you expand on this please? Firefox is taking me about 10 seconds to start in kde but also in fluxbox.
Actually its ok i dont use gtk-qt-engine

Silverlight dosen't work at Firefox 18.0.2 on linux ubuntu 12.10

Silverlight (Moonlight, in fact) dosen't work at Firefox 18.0.2 on linux ubuntu 12.10.

Moonlight claims to be substitue for Silverlight. Microsoft owns Silverlight who also invests in developing Moonlight using Mono for Linux is a way to hide their monopoly state, If not Moonlight should be definitely be working on Linux based OS.
It is clear that Microsoft shows we provide alternative and then if it does not work users need to switch to Windows and yes Moonlight does not work.

Há Firefox 64 bits ESR para linux entregue em tgz ou nos fontes?

Estou usando o slackware 64 bits e gostaria de saber se há um firefox específico e que eu não precise atualizar com frequência

Eu começaria por aqui:

Firefox does not start in Linux unless some extension was changed (i.e. activated/deactivated)

== Issue
==
Firefox is crashing or closing unexpectedly
== Description
==
Problem: When I start FF in Linux, it crashes after the cursor is jumping for half a minute. Nothing is displayed. When I start FF from the command line, I get the prompt back after one second without any message. In safe-mode and with all extensions off it always starts.
However, when I change something in the extensions' settings, it may start: If I start in safemode, deactivate all extensions, and restart - here it goes, with all extensions off. If I activate all the extensions again and restart - here it goes again, with all extensions on. If I delete one or more of the extensions' folders in the extensions-directory of the profile (i.e. sth changes about the extensions!), it may start again, too, but not in every case.
What could be the cause of this issue and how can I resolve it?
I use FF 3.6.8 in openSUSE 11.3. The profile-directory I use with FF in Linux is also used by my Windows-FF. As for extensions, I use Greasemonkey, Firebug and Web Developers Toolbar

Can the webmaster fix mozilla's web site so that users don't end up with non working 32bit version of firefox on their 64 bit Linux (see bug #723487)?

I've been subsribed to bug #723487 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=723487) for a year and a half, and I identified a problem in the way mozilla's site delivers the linux version of firefox almost a year and a half ago, but for reasons unknown to me, no one bothered to address this problem.
Other, properly built web sites that deliver binary software packages for linux, can successfully recognise if the user downloading firefox is using a 32bit or 64bit Linux distribution, and offer the appropriate version. Try www.libreoffice.org if you think that my claims are false.
But this somehow doesn't work with mozillas website, the website recognizes that the user's operating system is Linux, but doesn't try to figure out if it's a 32bit or 64bit linux, so the users end up with 32bit builds of firefox by default, which then don't work on their 64bit sytems.
The problem is even more intensified due to the rather stupid naming convention used by mozilla - both the 32 and the 64 bit versions are simply named identicaly - for instance firefox-29.0b6.tar.bz2 for the 29 beta 6 version. Other sane software producers (libreoffice, nvidia, qt-project) names their binary packages with different names (eg. the "x86" string is used for the 32bit version, "x64" for the 64bit version) so that the users don't end up trying to use (unsucsesfully; getting a cryptic error message) the wrong version. But in mozilla's case we end up with a lot of confused users filing bug reports, like the bug I mentioned above.
So to rephrase my question - is someone willing to do something about this (the QA Mentor who commented in bug #723487 has so far proven to be completely useless)?

The 64-bit Linux builds have been listed on the http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ page since Firefox 27.0 or 26.0 I believe.
This link is listed under the green download button with the words of [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Systems & Languages]

How do I set Firefox in WinXP to print straight to my default printer rather than one of the others on my system.

I use winXP SP3.
I have several printer options... fax, pdf Creator etc. My default Windows printer is on my network.
Whenever I print from Firefox the printer that comes up is the pdf Creator. I can select my default printer and it not a problem having to do so, just an annoyance.
I would have expected Firefox to remember my last choice and offer that again, but it does not. I haven't been able to find a way of altering the choice permanently. I have no idea why the unusual choice is made.

Many Thanks.
Your suggestion does not actually work but it enabled me to get under the hood.
I have toggled the altered setting back to 'true'.
Next I right clicked '''print.print_printer''' and clicked the reset option.
I have restarted Firefox and all seems well. My default network laser printer came up first. I used it...ok. I then changed to my pdf printer and used it...ok. I then changed back to my default printer...ok. The next print I attempted came up with my default printer... good result!
Its fingers crossed now and I'll be careful of the resident dragons if I feel the need to mess with them again.

Wiping WinXP and installing Linux

Hello,
I just joined today. I have a question about how I should go about updating certain things in my R51.
I greatly favor Linux over Windows-- I use the Linux distro MEPIS 8.5 in one desktop tower, and the Linux distro sidux in another desktop tower. I just bought an R51 (type 2895-AU3) Thinkpad a few days ago- this is my first laptop. While I wasn't given any OS disc(s), it came loaded with WinXP. Shortly after getting home with the R51, I looked up what updates are available for it from Lenovo. For WinXP, there are a number of them but when I changed the OS option to Linux, only 3 turned up, as I recall, for the HDD and for the CD-RW/DVD. I'm wondering if, while I still have WinXP installed, I should update the BIOS and various other things for WinXP and then wipe the WindowsXP and install MEPIS.
When I ran my MEPIS live CD in the R51 (and a Linux live CD doesn't install Linux, yet), I noticed that the boot info said the BIOS was outdated (and maybe it said it needs updating?) The BIOS is currently version 1.21 (1VET63WW) and is dated 21 Feb. 2005.
Are there so many Lenovo-supplied updates for WinXP because that OS needs them in order for that OS to be optimized for use today, while so few updates for Linux because things are basically OK for Linux (except for the three I found in my seach)?
So I'm asking: Should I first do the Lenovo updates (BIOS, etc.) for WinXP, then wipe the WinXP and install MEPIS, doing later the Linux updates from Lenovo?
[A short while ago I read about some bad update bug offered in a Lenovo BIOS update for some unspecified ThinkPad. I of course want to avoid anything that makes my laptop unuseable.]
Thanks

If I'm not too late, Just install Ubuntu. Not sure if it's the only one or not, But it can be installed inside windows like an program. When it boots you will have the option to choose windows or ubuntu. Best way to install it is to load the iso with any image loaders (poweriso, magiciso, deamontools) It will install faster than a burned CD. Also disconnect from the internet before install. Or it will install from the internet which will be over 30mins long. Ubuntu is very easy to use.

Firefox 3.6.11 on Linux is not recognizing any plugins how can I fix this?

I'm running Enterprise linux 5.5 64-bit. I have tried installing the java plugin and can't get Firefox to recognize it. I could not get flash to work either.

In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you need the Next-Generation Java™ Plug-In present in Java 6 U10 and later (Linux: libnpjp2.so; Windows: npjp2.dll).

Why is the Preferences Window in Firefox 3.6.12 for Linux coming-up blank?

I just finished manually upgrading Firefox on an old machine running openSUSE 10.2; I decided against upgrading my OS because this is the only version in which my Olympus MAUSB-10 picture card reader works. In order to do this, I had to compile and install GLib 2.12 and ATK 1.32; all other dependancies were already included in this version of Linux. And I am currently running KDE, although GNOME is also installed. Firefox 2.0.0 is also installed on this machine.
Although the browser works fine from my home directory (I am using it right now to fill-out this form.), whenever I click on Edit and then Preferences, I find that this window comes-up blank. Could anyone please tell me how I might fix this problem?
Thanks in advance! ;)
Karl

Does the OpenSUSE distribution meet the Firefox requirements?
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/system-requirements.html - Firefox 3.6 System Requirements
You may have a problem with the preferences file prefs.js. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Trying to find a mozilla download site to download firefox for windows using a linux version because my windows version isn't working.

There are several sites that offer Firefox downloads.
I don't trust any of them except mozilla.org
But I can't find a download button on mozilla.
I'm using Linux because my firefox on Windows 7 stopped working and the default download seems to be for a Linux version of firefox.
How can I download a windows version?
Why did Firefox stop working. I was downloading a program -- Tunein Radio - and it looked as if it was installing junkware.
I stopped the download but it seems to have already installed something called file opener. I uninstalled fire opener.
That may have caused the problem

hello, you'll find download links for all supported systems & languages at https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
if you suspect that the problem on your system is caused by malware it is probably advisable to run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner], which are specialised in adware and browser hijackers.

I can't seem to get Firefox to update on my Linux Mint system???

First I have to say I'm a little tech challenged. I can't seem to get my Firefox to update to the latest version. I've tried the Help page and done the fixes to no avail. I also downloaded the latest version but my computer will not seem to do anything with it. My Linux Mint is currently up to date.
My Firefox does crash occasionally and I wind up having to shut the computer down manually. Linux restarts fine but sometimes it takes two or three tries to get Firefox up without crashing again...
Thanks

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Migrate Firefox from WinXP to Win7 and keep settings

I just replaced my ASUS laptop running WinXP Pro with a Samsung laptop running Win7 Home Basic. I would like to install Firefox 4 on the new Samsung and transfer my bookmarks & cookies from the old computer. Can anyone help? Win7 doesn't have Documents & Settings any more, so it's not totally straightforward. Thanks!

For bookmarks alone, it is easy.

Changing default audio application causes Flash Player to crash in Firefox on WinXP

my shockwave (v17 installed) crashed constantly when adjusting audio. changed defualt web audio (options, applications, web audio) to windows media player from vlc. no more crashes...

On Win7 and higher with Firefox 37.0.1, Web Audio isn't an option -- but there are several dozen individual audio and video codecs listed. There should be a discrete "Shockwave Flash Object" entry, with a "Use Shockwave Flash (in Firefox)" option. I don't see a Web Audio entry. I'm guessing that this behavior was problematic, and probably something that didn't make sense to carry forward to newer operating systems.
It may be some compatibility thing between WMP and Flash, but hard to know for sure. I'll keep this in mind when working with Firefox/WinXP folks in the future though.
Thanks!
