Firefox is constantly hanging, no matter what website I go to, and updating the profile doesn't seem to help. HELP!

I use Mac OS X, 10.5.8 to be exact. I haven't been using Firefox lately because it keeps 'hanging' on me. I get the turning, round, colorful ball which doesn't ever stop to let me quit or anything. I have to force quit. Doesn't matter what website I go to, it lets me do a little bit and then just hangs.
I've updated recently, hoping that would help, but nothing. There is a certain website I need to use that will only run on Firefox, rather than Chrome or Safari, which I'd rather use because of the Firefox problems.
I'm not sure what else I can do. In the troubleshooting section, it says to run Firefox in safe mode, but I can't do that. In the Terminal, I don't know how to use it.
Please help!

  • Adobe Reader 10.1.2 on my mac, can't print pdfs, and the patch doesn't seem to help. What do I do???

    I downloaded AdobeReader 10.1.2 and I can read pdfs just fine.  But I can no print them and it's FRUSTRATING.  I came to this forum and followed the instructions for downloading the AdobeReaderPatch.  I tried it but it didn't help.  Is it just for PCs?  What do I do to print my PDFs???
    I have several pending deadlines SOON and I need an answer ASAP!
    THANKS!!

    I received a notice from Chris Campbell at Adobe that stated : "....we are aware that Macs created between 2006 and 2008 are currently running into problems using the latest release of Flash Player (version 13)."  My question is will the update of Adobe Reader 11.0.07 cause this problem with Flash Player 13 on my Mac?  Sometimes when I try to view streaming video I get sound but no video.

    I've been having this problem for weeks and have found no solution to it. There are lots of other people with this issue too if you look back on the boards. I even e-mailed AND called Apple and have had no luck. I tried all the suggestions they gave me and all the ones I found on here- nothing worked. I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (boy was that a pain!) and no difference.
    The weird part is that I have an old laptop that works and if I buy music with the laptop I can download it with my regular computer buy buying does not work on my regular computer. That tells me it's not a connection issue. I can't get to my account either.
    I can't figure out why an issue that has kept so many people from purchasing a product has been ignored!

  • HT204053 I am running Windows 7 and have tried to install iCloud.  No matter what instructions I follow, I still get the error message "This Apple ID is valed but is not an iCloud account."  How can I resolved this?

    I am running Windows 7 and have tried to install iCloud.  No matter what instructions I follow, I still get the error message "This Apple ID is valed but is not an iCloud account."  How can I resolved this?

    I've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
    So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
    Thank you for any help you can give.

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    if not should i use update will update create a new entry if no entry is there and please give syntex
    regards
    Arora

    Hi Nishant Arora,
    Modify: It works in performing two actions.
    They are: Insert + Update.
    For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
    Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
    Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
    These are the cases you need to write these statements.
    Syntaxes: :
    Go through this links please.,

  • When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

    When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

    see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
    which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
    Try closing Firefox completely
    *Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
    *Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
    If that does not work, try restarting the system.
    If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
    *''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
    The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
    Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
    replace those files instead.
