Firefox is crashing when I try to reply to emails.

When I open hotmail, firefox allows me to do everything as normal with the account until I try to send an email. It lets me send the first email, but every time I try to send another email after woulds, my whole browser (including the other tabs) crash and close down.
As someone who has been using firefox for years, I find this more than a little annoying, as I have to repeat the password process every time the page closes down...
I use the latest version, and this problem has only been going on for the last week or so.
I hope you can help!

This appears to be known but resolved on a bug report found about it. I have post on the bug report. I will update here if I receive a response. Meanwhile you can try the following:
Hello,
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 (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
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]]

Thank you.

    Hello Deb,
      Something fishy going on with those particular files. But without looking at them directly I couldn't say what. Usually in a case like this the problem is some of the metadata that is attached to the file. Where did these files come from? A camera, a scanner, the internet?
      An explanation about the Watched Folder function: It looks for changes to a folder, not just automatically grabbing whatever files are in it. Generally, you want to select an empty folder as a Watch Folder. Once this has been set up, as you add files to this folder they will be imported into the Organizer. If you start with a folder full of images, those will be ignored, any new items will be added.

    Hi amyhlj,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your iPhone. If you are having issues with your iPhone restarting when accessing a specific web page (all web pages?), you may want to try resetting the Safari data on your phone as outlined in the following article:

    To clear other stored information from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data > Remove All Website Data.
    To visit sites without leaving a history, turn on private browsing.

  • How can I stop Firefox from crashing when I try to clear history?

    For the last few days I haven't been able to clear history for the day.
    I tell firefox to Clear for Today. I tell it to clear now but after a while nothing is happening. When I check with the task manager my Firefox windows have stopping responding. When I try to close any of the windows I get a crash report.

    troubleshoot (move) the places.sqlite file... (in the process, this will delete history)

  • Firefox is crashing when I try to download anything.

    Whenever I try to download anything, the download window will open up, but then will freeze. This started as an intermittent error, but now appears to be happening every time.
    I am running Toshiba T510i Win7 x64 with Sophos Anti-Virus. This same issue does not occur at home when I am using my AMD machine, with Kaspersky.
    Both instances have the same addons and themes.
    Is anyone else having this issue? When I searched for a resolution, I found a page detailing removal of the downloads.sqlite file. This has not resolved issue.

  • I keep getting the following error message: "Could not initialize the application's security component." Firefox then crashes when I try to enter a secure website. Help?

    The exact error message is: "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features." I am on a MacBook and have been using Firefox for years without any problem until now.

    Can you access other apps? Can you acess the internet? Can you access applications that use internet besides facebook?
    If answer is yes to all of these; contact Facebook.

    PDF reader will not open certain documents. I have to download to desktop and open PDF documents there. No similar problem if using Safari. Already loaded PDF plugin for Firefox. Any guesses?

    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.

  • Email keeps crashing when i try to delete something, email keeps crashing when i try to delete something

    I sent an email to someone, it came back with a message saying delivery notification faliure, when I tried to delet this message from my inbox it keeps crashing and wont allow me to delete it??

    i think.... It is crashing because it has no memory to move around.  suggest - resync with your 'puter.  on the photos tab, do not reload (sync0 a bunch of the existing photos, and deal with them - deleting or otherwise - on you computer.
    Otherwise - you have no option but to remove stuff from the pad  - music, apps, videos etc to give you enough space to move.

  • Iphoto crashes when I try to import from email or iphone.  What do  I do?

    I have the latest iPhoto and IOS for iPhone.  As of October, I have been unable to import photos to iPhoto.  It crashes.  What do I do?  I am afraid I'll lose my library.  Can I trash and re-install iPhoto without losing anything?  Thanks

    I solved my own problem.  I searched again through the Apple support site (sorry Eric, that sounded awfully complicated.)  I found this:  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4095
    "If you have the 3ivx QuickTime plug-in installed, iPhoto 9.2 may quit unexpectedly when enabling Photo Stream or importing photos. This plug-in may have been installed automatically, as it is included with the software bundled with some Flip video cameras.
    Products Affected
    iPhoto, 3ivx
    Resolution
    Update to iPhoto 9.2.1. Please see About updating iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand for more information about updating iPhoto.
    Note: After installing iPhoto 9.2.1, Flip video clips may not play correctly in iPhoto. An updated version of the Flip video software, available from the Flip support site, should restore video playback in iPhoto."
    I hadn't remembered that I downloaded iPhoto from the App store so that Software Update didn't update it.
    Any way, it solved my problem and might help someone else.
    Thanks for the support.   Andrea

  • Firefox crashes when I try to download a file

    Hi!
    I run Firefox Nightly 8.0a1 (2011-07-08) on Arch Linux 64-bit with Gnome 3, and I'm having problem with crashes when I try to download files. This doesn't happen in the stable version of Firefox (5) which I also have installed on my computer.
    It's possible to open the download manager as long as there are no entries in the download list. But if I start a download of something - the download manager opens with an entry (the current download) and Firefox disappears. It instantaneously vanishes from both the monitor and the process list.
    I have tried to remove the downloads.sqlite file from my profile folder, but it didn't help.
    I have also tried to rename my whole profile folder to something else, and then created a new, empty profile folder with the name the first one had. When I then started Firefox, it recreated all the default content to the profile folder, so I ended up with a clean, unmodified installation. But it still crashed when I tried to download files. So it doesn't seem to be a problem with the extensions or similar.
    Suggestions?

    Downgrade to an older nightly that works for a week or so, then test again to see if the bug's still there. In the mean time, report the bug on Bugzilla if it hasn't already been. There's really nothing you can do about bugs in nightlies.
    (A similar sort of bug that triggered 60 seconds after opening, every time, was what got me out of using nightlies as my main browser.)
