When re-starting FF, after a close, FF says that there is FF already running. Have to use task m. to close firefox.32*exe.

after using task manager to close the firefox.32*exe process, then FF will restart properly. Doesn't seem to happen if the laptop is powered off.

Must be the "hang at exit" problem. You already know how to do Step1; now just determine which Add-on (Extension or Plugin) is causing the problem.

Why do i have to use task manager to end firefox even after i close the website

every time i go to close firefox, i use either the X or file exit.
then i go to the icon to launch the program (firefox) i get a pop up that tells me firefox is still running to maybe restart my computer.
the only way i can override this is by using "task manager" look for the icon and end the process.
then i can reopen the browser

Use "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox title bar.
In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes", try to exclude the clearing the Cookies

Desktop Manager 6 Installs, but All buttons are blank

Hey,
I am new to the forum, and new to the phone. I have a Bold 9700, and my computers OS is Win 7, 64 bit.
Basically, I install the software and it loads, but all the buttons are blank (without words) and pressing anything leads to it freezing and crashing. There is a link to a screenshot below.
I have tried multiple uninstalls, removing registry keys, restarts and reinstalls all to no avail.
I would appreciate it if anyone could help me troubleshoot this.
Thanks,
Curtis

Hi coj99,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Are you installing Desktop Manager in a Windows user account with administrative privileges?
Try doing a clean uninstall of the software and reinstalling, making sure to install as an administrator. http://bbry.lv/acVRkU

Thanks in Advance

Ig agent gets a call and is interrupted then the buttons are disabled.

After installing Firefox6 many sites will not finish loading. I click on "stop loading this page" and then click on "reload this page" and the page loads. Also if I disable javascript the page will load.

After installing Firefox 6 MANY web site will not finish loading. I disabled all add-ons and still have the problem. If I disable javascript, the pages will load. When the page is trying to load, if I hit "stop loading this page" and then hit "reload this page", the page will load; but sometimes I have to do this 2-3 times for the page to finish loading. No problem with these pages using IE8.

I see that you ave changed some network.http prefs. 
Doing that can cause all kinds of problems because not all servers like such changes, so you can try to reset those prefs on the about:config page.

Hotmail inbox home page loads, but is frozen, and I cannot open or use any of its functions. I have to revert to MSInternet Expl to use hotmail.

I have the latest level MF. I have not used this particular PC for some 6 weeks, but by using a laptop elsewhere have accessed Hotmail OK, and not let a backlog of mail clog up the system. Having returned to this PC, where I have Hotmail as my home default page, I go on-line and cannot use my email on MF. All other websites access OK in MF. I have cleared all recent history etc but it has not changed anything. I am not a computer nerd, I just want to get my Hotmail back in MF, following simple advice!

I have an XP and used Hotmail today and yesterday. There seem to have been some changes recently with how attachments are handled (for example you add photographs to emails) but the basic Hotmail and its inbox seem to be functioning fine.

What is the cause of Firefox seizing up and having to use task manager to close down

When I use Firefox within 2 pages it seizes. When you try to click on anything I hear a ding with no response, even when you try to shut it down. You have to shut it down with Task manager. I have uninstalled it and reloaded but the same thing happens. When I use Explorer I have no troubles. I need Firefox as a site that I use only works with Firefox. This problem has occurred after the recent upgrade

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?

Firefox 29.0.1 on Windows 7 (64-bit): ALWAYS get "Firefox is already running but not responding..." error and need Task Manager to close/restart Firefox.

I run Firefox 29.0.1 on Windows 7 (64 bit) and I get the "Firefox is already running but not responding. In order to open the program you must close the existing window." error. EVERY TIME I try to start Firefox. The posted solution works to start the program, but it is not a permanent solution. I go through the Task Manager and end the old Firefox process, then I can open a new window. While working, I can open multiple tabs and multiple windows, everything seems to (usually) work the way it should. Then after I completely exit Firefox, in order to open the program again I need to fix the SAME error again. Every time. It doesn't seem to hurt anything really, but it is quite annoying.
I used to get this same error on some of the older Firefox versions but it was only once in a while. With the new 29.0.1 it is literally EVERY TIME I TRY TO RUN FIREFOX!!!!
So, down to the big question: is there a permanent fix for this yet? Or will there be one included in the next version update? Or am I going to have to go back to Internet Explorer? I know I am not alone in this experience; i've seen several other users posting similar questions but none of them received satisfactory answers. So what's the story here, team Firefox?

This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

Having problems opening firefox (vista) i have to goto task manager and close process all the time just to reopen?

hi i have just recentley started having problems opening firefox up (before update) i use vista, i can double click on icon and nothing happens but when i turn pc off it pops up as the screen is going off very strange? the only way i can get it to work is by going in to task manager and ending firefox process yet there isnt firefox running????

yea thanks thats the issue there is nothing in applications for firefox so i cant close anything there but in processes there is Firefox.exe useing 30,000k so i close that, but im even stuggling with that now to get firefox working now i just had to do that process around 10 times!!!!! and then only with right clicking firefox in start menu

I have Firefox 3.6.13 with Firefox for Yahoo 1.7 on Win XP and when I close the browser window, I can't open it again without using Task Manager to close firefox.exe any suggestions?

This started when I first set started using Yahoo Messenger. It appears to me that Yahoo messenger is keeping the application firefox.exe open in the background and this prevents the browser from opening. The only thing I can't understand is why the broser will open the first time with Yahoo Messenger running.

How to make a page READ ONLY / all fields are DISABLED ?

Hi all,
I am using ONE page to do ADD/EDIT/DISPLAY data. When users are in DISPLAY mode, I want all fields on the page to be read only / disabled.
How is the best approach to do that ?
(other than going to every fields and set the ReadOnly/Disabled property)
Thank you for your help,
xtanto

Hi Xtanto,
My business logic is somewhat different - I don't do this for new/editted rows, but based upon other security. You could certainly set something in your backing bean based upon a user clicking "new" or "edit"
John

When I close firefox it doesn't close. I go to reopen it and it says that it is already running. I have to use task manager to end process to close it before i can log back on.

After browsing and I close Firefox it appears to close.
However when I go to reopen it later I get a message that Firefox is already open and I need to close it. The only wany I can close it is by using Task Manger to end process.

The back and forward browser buttons are NOT ALWAYS available to use, so once I open a web-site I can not go back to what I was looking at previously. This has only started happening recently?

The back and forward browser button always works when we first get online, and then over some time it will not work and then will work again (working again is happening less). I have re-started the computer many times to fix the issue.

I am the administrator on our family computer with 3 other member logins. I have downloaded the pages app but how can my other family members also use it on the same computer?

I am the administrator on our family computer with 3 other family member logins. I have downloaded the app for pages but how can I allow the other users access to it? I am a computer novice so i need some advice.

If Pages and the other applicatioins installed in the Applications in the root directory they can be used by everyone. By default all programs installed by the App store are installed in the Applications folder in the root. In other words, your family members should be able to use the programs. Can they not?

Firefox is totally unresponsive, the page loads but all buttons are disabled. I have to use task manager to close it.
