Firefox is freezing everytime I click on something no matter the page.
It doesn't matter what website I am using everytime I click on something, it loads the page correctly and then says (not responding) for 2 to 3 minutes. It hasn't crashed so far, but I am not a big fan of waiting.
Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

Firefox freezes everytime i click on something on youtube
i can go there with the url or from a link but every time i try to click on another video it freezes and will not close i have to kill the process
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes)
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Macbook keeper advert pops up everytime i click on something
Everytime i click on a link this macbook keeper advert just pops up until i close the tab down.
does anyone know how i can get rid of it?
thanks
amyEach browser works a little differently. Check your browser Preferences (COMMAND ,( and look for an option that allows you to 'block pop-up widows'. This will not totally eliminate them, but will minimize them. This is from my primary browser, Firefox:

hey,
ive also downloaded the easyfind app but it dont seem to find the pop up anywhere on my mac, but its defiently there everytime i click on something.
There is nothing to search for in ths case. It is a function of the web site.
since deleting google chrome it hasnt popped up but im worried if i reinstall it back it will appear? is this common?
It may, but to a limited extent if your follow my suggestion and 'block pop-up windows,. It is common in that it is not unusual.

Yesterday, since I downloaded the latest version 3.6.6, every time firefox opens and when I click on something, I get multiple error windows that say "ERROR: Security Manager Vetoed Action". I can't hardly use if anymore because of all the window pop-ups. What can I do? Can I go back to an older version?

== I downloaded version 3.6.6 yesterdayhello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

i have a big problem why is it i cant update my ipod touch 2g into ios 4! im using the latest version of itunes and everytime i click "update" it stucks on the "contacting server" please help i want to update it now
Maybe here:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server -
When I click a link to open the page in new tab, it open the new page beside my page.
After I update FireFox to version 3.6.8, I could not open the new page in the last tab, it always opens the new page in beside the tab.
Mmm…I could not make sure the new page or new tab I said is the same with you…?? (I use Chinese version so that I don’t know if it’s the same or not…)
A window could open several pages with different tabs, and I could click different tab to different page, right?
If I right clicked a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same window, the new tab opened in the last tab of my window.
But after I update FireFox to version 3.6.8 and I click a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same windoe, the new tab will open beside my page. (Mmm…Open on right of my page.)
I would like the “new tab” open to the last tab in my window, not “beside” the tab I used. How could I change the setting??)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I update FireFox to 3.6.8That feature isn't new to 3.6.8, it was changed in 3.6.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
Double-click that preference to change the value to '''''false''''' -
The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
Another possibility is to use:

Working in muse when I go to right click I don't get the Page Properties menu how do I change ?
Working in muse when I go to right click I don't get the Page Properties menu how do I change this ?
Hello,
What do you right click on? Usually you should be able to see Page Properties when you right click on a page from the plan mode, or you can also find page properties if you open the individual pages and then go to Page -> Page Properties. However, if you are in the plan mode and you try to use the Page -> Page Properties, that won't work and the "Page Properties" option would be grayed out.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

I'm using the Motorola Atrix smart phone with the Laptop Dock. When I open a web page with Firefox I have to hit "Ctl +" three times to make the page fill the screen. Is there any way to set up the Firefox browser to open the web pages the right size in the first place?
The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

Have you reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen? If that doesn't resolve this, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data, but all device settings will have to be entered again.
If that doesn't fix it, your next step might be to backup then erase all content and settings or restore the iPad to factory settings. See how if goes if you reset all settings first. -
I tried updating Firefox but still get the same message. When I used Explorer (YUCK) I did not get the message even though I went to some of the same sites. The entire message reads: DLL C:/WINDOWS/system32/yehmyv.dll (should be back slashes) If I click ok it goes away but comes back almost everytime I click on a link. I can work with it but it is annoying and I'm worried about potential problems cropping up. I ran spyware and checked my firewall. Don't know what to do next
Also do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

When navigating the internet, if I come across a web page that has a link to open a picture or program in a new window, if I click on it, it does not open. Firefox immediately looses functionality in that I cannot open a new tab with the mouse wheel, right click to open a new tab, or use my bookmarks in either the drop down or toolbar to navigate away. I can usually still navigate the page that I am on, for example, (https://loanconsolidation.ed.gov/AppEntry/apply-online/appindex.jsp), when it freezes I cannot click on any of the content at the center of the page but I can still use the links from the list on the far left. For an example of the pictures, (http://www.insect-sale.com/), if you click on "New Arrivals" at the top of the page it takes you to a list of products that can only be viewed by clicking on them. Usually a picture of the item would open in a small window but it does not and Firefox freezes. This has also happen when I try a view a degree audit on a school's website where a program would usually open in a new window. The only thing I have been able to find that still functions properly when this happens is the home page button. I can click on it or use the wheel to open it in a tab just fine, but if I try and go anywhere else I cannot. The only way I can get Firefox back to normal is to use the Task Manager and end the process. Another thing I have noticed, that may or may not be related; is that my Norton Internet Security toolbar, that should show up below the bookmarks toolbar and above the tabs, only shows up about 1 out of every 10 times I open Firefox. Some days it doesn't show up at all. If it does show up and I log into Identity Safe, the autofill for the programed website works, even if the toolbar doesn't show up the next time I open Firefox.
Go to Tools->Options->Apps
Here you should see two columns: Content Type on the left, Actions on the right.
Find and select excel spreadsheet or any other content type in the left column. There should be a corresponding action in the right column. What is it? You can use the drop-down list to select the option you want:
Always Ask - Firefox will ask each time: What do you want to do with this file?
Save file - Firefox will save this file to your computer
Use - Firefox will give this file to the program to open it
In case of saving, Firefox will either prompt you every time where you want the file to be saved, or save it to the default location. It depends on the preference in

Spinning wheel everytime I click on something. Help?!
I'm trying to update my software to OS X 10.6.4 to download iTunes version 9.2 so I can update my iPhone 3gs to ios4. My macbook pro is running so slow, that whenever I click on something the spinning wheel comes up and basically freezes my computer for an insane amount of time before I can continue. So, thus I've tried downloading different updates separately and it will not work.
It was working fine until last night when I tried to update with all of the available updates at once and when I turned it on after THAT failed, it has being doing this. Even now if I try to install the updates separately the spinning wheel comes up! is very frustrating. I'll take any help. Thanks.Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on the SBBOD and possible solutions.
