Firefox is shutting my Big Fish games down since I updated to newest version.

I play a lot of games from Big Fish. Today I updated to the newest version of Firefox (4.0.1) and since I've done this, my games keeps glitching. For no reason, the screen goes through a spasm of stops and starts, shutting the game down but then brings up the game screen as if it's been paused. I can then resume game. I have restarted my computer, I have cleared out cookies, I have cleaned my cache. It still seems to be happening. It's not life threatening but it is a pain in the butt. Tonight it happened at least 6 times in 2 hours. Is there something I can do to correct this or, if not, can I go back to the older version? I switched to this version in hopes that Firefox would be faster. I have an iMac desktop that's new and has LOTS of space (a terra bite?)yet Firefox has been running slower and slower to the point of me switching to Opera. I prefer the Firefox layout and would use it if a)it got faster and b) it stopped crashing my games.

  • When I updated/upgraded last it took away my Big Fish Games tool bar and WILL NOT reload it no matter what I do. How can I undo the last upgrade/date?

    My original question says it all. I cannot get my Big Fish Games toolbar to reload. It will with internet explorer but not with your product's new upgrade. I wish to undo the upgrade to the earlier version so I can get my toolbar back.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

    You should avoid using the same Firefox profile with different Firefox versions.<br />
    If you currently do then create a new profile exclusively for the Firefox 4 version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

  • When I try to open the Big Fish game page the browser crashes and I am including the following signature. nsContentUtils::ComparePosition(nsINode*, nsINode*)

    This problem happens often and only with the Big Fish Game site. Sometimes it happens with the initial opening of the home page at other times it is when I am trying to navigate around the site. It is the only website that this happens.

    I need help downloading and playing big fish games on my notebook

    No idea why you should ask here, unless you're one of those people who mix up Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash Player. Even so, you might as well go to the mother fish: http://www.bigfishgames.com/community/

    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select

  • Recently purchased Mountain Lion and now 40% of my Big Fish games don't work, any ideas?

    Recently purchased Mountain Lion and now several of my Big Fish games don't work, any ideas?
    Mystery Case Files Return to Ravenhurst and MCF 13th Skull to name a couple
    I have contacted Big Fish games and tried all the suggestion still to no avail.....

    If you "recently purchased Mavericks" without upgraded your hardware (MBP), then your MBP is still capable of running whichever flavor of OS X that you previously were able to run these 40% of Big Fish games.
    In that case, partition your hard drive or add an external drive and install that flavor of OS X (Snow Leopard or Lion) there and "dual-boot" your MBP into the alternative OS X when you want to play those games using Startup Manager in the System Preferences before Restart.

  • I am using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 (a speech recognition software) to navigate through Firefox, but ever since I downloaded the newest version of Firefox how can I download some older versions?

    ever since I downloaded the newest version of Firefox, my Dragon NaturallySpeaking hasn't been working very well. For example, I will say "click register" or "click contact us" to select links and buttons on websites. Before this worked fine, but now it hardly works at all, which makes me think that because I am using a Dragon NaturallySpeaking program from 2007 or 2008, that it just doesn't know how to handle a program like Mozilla Firefox six that was written after its time. Or maybe it's the operating system? I was running an older version of Mozilla on Windows XP and now I am on Microsoft's seven.
    What I want to try is to download an older version of Mozilla Firefox to see if the problems go away. I don't know if that would mean I would use Mozilla five or four, but I would like to try both. How can I do this, when I go to the website it says "you have the most updated version" and will let me access in the winter versions click post question that post question

  • MAC Big Fish Games no longer operable IN LION

    Since upgrading to Lion my two favourite games from Big Fish no longer are operable.  These games were for the MAC not PC but the message comes up that Lion does not support PowerPC applications and the spinning beach ball stays so you have to force exit.  I love those games.  Is anything going to be done about this please?  How I wish I had stayed with Snow Leopard.

  • Firefox won't load or slow every time since 18 update I have all necessary cleaning done--just don't open right now

    Lately Firefox does not load on my Vista--especially since update 18 happened. It shows that Firefox is running in the task manager but the page doesn't come up. This is every time I try to start the browser.
    It runs once I can get it to come up--but it never ever comes up the first time without going into task manager and finding the file it is in and starting it there as "administrator". This is very very annoying--before I uninstall and change browser back to Chrome which has its own issues--perhaps you can enlighten me as to how to fix this problem--it needs a patch? Don't tell me to dump history cookies etc. This I have already tried and it doesn't do anything--the problem persists. Any solutions for me? Thanks
    Lr

    I have 5 different Win7 64-bit installations. As soon as i upgraded to FF18...EVERY single systems browser experience slows to a crawl. CPU and memory spike beyond control. In fact I have to use Chrome to browse. This is so incredibly unacceptable. My entire family is soooo frustrated. They have reverted to IE, and i provided each device with a fresh install of Chrome, no issues whatsoever.
    As for suggestions here, I have no intention of following any of these lame instructions to check anti-virus, video card switching, or resetting FF to defaults which will cause loss of some of the personalization.
    Its a bloody shame. Farewell FF. Enjoy your poorly QA'ed release....!!!

  • Photo orientation upside down since ios8 update

    This is odd... since the ios8 update, my 5s has started taking photos upside down. They appear correct in the 'viewfinder', but in my 'recently added' they are inverted. While taking the photo, the top bar (which contains the flash settings, HDR, timer and front/back camera switcher) is also upside down. Is this a known issue since the update? Here's a photo of what I mean - and although it looks like the photo in the thumbnail is right-side up, when it is opened, the photo is upside-down.

    Same here with iPhone 6
    I've noticed that the first picture I take is OK...it's all the subsequent pics that are upside down.  If I leave the camera app then come back to it...same thing....first pic is OK and all the rest are upside down.  You can tell before you even take the pic...the flash text (on/off/auto) on the top of the screen will be upside down

    Hello Karen.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
    As for your issue, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.
