Firefox keeps crashing apon startup and unable to send crash report

Last night I was browsing the web and ended up having 300+ tabs opened, FIrefox started to slow tremendously and stopped responding a couple of times. Was given the option to close Firefox from the popup window and choose to close Firefox, unfortunately when I tried to open Firefox again it crashed and gave me the crash reporter and when I tried to submit the report the report it encountered a problem and is unable to send the report. I've run Firefox in safe mode and is working fine but when I try to restart with add-ons disabled its still crashes and unable to send report.

Try to start Firefox with the about:blank page by creating a copy of the current Firefox desktop shortcut and add a space and <b>-url "about:blank"</b> to the target field.
Try to delete the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder to prevent restoring the crashed session.

  • MacPro keeps crashing... Unable to send Problem Reports to Apple.

    In the ever-continuing saga of getting my MacPro to work under Leopard, this keeps happening..
    Everytime I have to Force-Quit something and it generates a report I get this message.
    Safari crashes, System Profiler crashes, almost every application seems to crash. This NEVER happened with Tiger.
    Can anyone provide any insight as to why this is happening and why I get this message. Hardware checks out ok. I think somehow it may be USB related because sometimes when I unplug the hub after a "hang" it clears up.
    The problem reports are unable to "gather system configuration information" and never get sent to Apple.
    Please let me know any usb diagnostics I can run? Here's what's connected to the USB HUB....

    If you're running Mac OS X 10.5.8 as your profile says, there will almost certainly never be any more software updates, and there's no point in submitting bug reports because the bugs will never be fixed.

  • I installed the latest version of Firefox last night. It worked 3-4 times flawlessly. Now, it crashes at startup and gives me a box with crash detail report. How can I fix this?

    I have a brand new HP dv8t laptop that is straight from the manufacturer 2 days ago.
    Last night, I attempted to download and installed the latest version of Firefox. After installing, it worked great for an hour or so (3.4 different sessions).
    Then, this morning when I came back to the computer, Firefox crashes at startup and gives me the option of finding a solution online or quitting the program.
    How aggravating!
    I have installed this same version on 2 other computers that I own, without any issue.
    I have attempted to uninstall Firefox from the dv8 and reinstalling, to no avail.
    I cannot find the crash report, but I do this see this message once the app crashes:

    Please help! I cant stand iE anymore and I'm so lost without Firefox!

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

  • Crashes on Startup and to the best of my knowledge, unfixable.

    Its a random chance at the start of a random day that it crashes on startup, freeze then crash. The only plugins i have installed are Java and Shockwave flash. I tried every method possible to the best of my knowledge but nothing worked. Eventually it let me back on, but it is still annoying regardless, as it happens nearly every time i start up Firefox.

    If you are actually seeing Firefx crash hopefully it is generating and submitting Crash Reports; and the crash ID's would potentially be useful, they start with '''bp-''' and are obtained by navigating to ''about:crashes''
    We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
    #Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
    #Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box.

  • Adobe Premiere CS5 Crashes at startup and cannot update

    My Premiere pro CS5 keeps crashing at startup and I tried to update it but it says “inapplicable” and won’t allow update....
    I tried uninstalling as well but still doesnt work....

    For the first issue, try this:
    Go to the following locations
    Location 1: When in Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Location 2: Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
    Location 3: Documents > Adobe
    In all the locations, rename the 'Adobe' folders to 'OldAdobe'
    Launch Premiere, accept the License Agreement and see if it works.
    Note: You will lose your customized workspaces and keyboard shortcuts.
    For the second issue, try this:
    If you succeed to launch Premiere Pro, Go to Help > Updates and try to update from there. If you are not able to launch Premiere Pro and have any other CS5 app such as After Effects, open that and go to Help > Updates and see if you are able to update from there.
    Thanks,
    Rameez

  • Firefox keeps remembering a website and won't allow me to log out and will not return to login page. been to cookies, saved passord options, nothing helps

    firefox keeps remembering a website and won't allow me to log out and will not return to login page. been to cookies, saved password options, says no password is saved but it is. nothing helps

    It might be that you are logged in with HTTP authentication (either basic or digest). This authentication is arranged by the browser, so you would have seen a pop-up dialog asking for a user name and password while logging in. It seems that these are cached by the browser and it requires you to restart the browser to log out...
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication
    http://www.tolaris.com/2009/09/08/logging-out-of-http-auth-with-firefox/
    Because I found that having to restart the browser quite annoying I stumbled on this question and also on the HTTP Logout add-on that allows you to log out without restarting your browser. Not many sites use HTTP Authentication, but you might give it a try.

  • Unable to send crash/error problem report

    Hi There,
    I have recently noticed that when a program I am running either force quits on it's own or I have to manually force quit the program, I am unable to send crash/error problem report to Apple. This has happened for all my programs from Safari and iTunes to recently Microsoft Word. The crashing messed up my internet as I had to give up using Firefox (because it kept crashing and wouldn't send a report) so I downloaded Chrome.
    Yesterday, Microsoft Word had to force quit because I manually quit the program but it never closed. It kept running in the background at 192% under my operating processes. When I force quit Word, it gave me the option to report the problem or ignore it. I chose to send a report but once that Problem Report screen loaded, it would not let me send to Apple, stating "Your submission could not be submitted. Please try again later."
    I have tried numerous times since all to no avail. As I mentioned, this happens on a lot of programs lately and I don't know what to do to fix it. Below are the specs of my Macbook. I can copy the problem details, but is lengthy.
    Any help/feedback is greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Apple is apparently no longer accepting crash reports for 'Leopard' OS X 10.5.8.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17544781#17544781
    Typical disk-maintenance activities when crashes occur include using Verify, and Repair Permissions on your hard drive (probably labeled Macintosh HD), using Disk Utility.
    10% to 15% of hard-drive capacity is generally acknowledged as the minimum amount of free space needed for adequate performance.

  • Error message firefox has encounted a problem and will close send don't send

    error signature code 0xc000000d flags 0x00000000
    When I go to the web I get this error message: Firefox has encountered a problem and will close send or don't send .When you click either it closes

    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 does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

  • Parallels xp unable to send problem report?

    Parallels desktop 7
    I have old version of XP, parallels does not detect (virtual machine is  not available) when I locate, set up.exe is grey
    I am unable to send problem report? please check network settings and try again, my network settings are working, I'm sendint this thread?? emails sending and recieving, any help would be really appreciated
    Tks
    Gary

    You ain't gonna believe this but:
    In 2006 I tried half heartedly to set up parallels and just took a look at a response I got, it suggested.
    There's a bug in the Apple firmware in the Mac Pro that prevents the hardware virtualization support that's built into the processor from being used. Since you will be running a VM (Virtual Machine) to install your guest OS, hardware virtualization support will let your VM run directly on the processor hardware. Without Vt-X support, software emulation is required, which is many times slower.
    Sometimes, putting your Mac to sleep and waking it up will allow getting around the Apple bug and allow Vt-X to work, speeding up your VM.
    Well I just put mine to sleep and the bloody thing downloaded perfectly, go figure.
    Shootist, you were perfectly correct, I was just frustrated and was trying anything.
    Actually Tempelton, I put it here and parallels because I think it's a combo problem, but, thanks for your help anyway mate. Also, I do like a little Robert Johnson matter of fact the Blues Bros were real good at sweet home chicago too
    Thanks all

  • When in googlemail firefox keeps connecting dropping out and reconnecting,and crashing.

    When in googlemail inbox, Firefox constantly keeps dropping out and reconnecting,(as seen in the tab) and often crashes when one is writing or sending a message.

    Try to start Firefox with the about:blank page by creating a copy of the current Firefox desktop shortcut and add a space and <b>-url "about:blank"</b> to the target field.
    Try to delete the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder to prevent restoring the crashed session.
