Firefox keeps on crashing - i tried all the solutions
My firefox keeps on crashing. So i decided to reinstall Windows XP install all drivers and update them but unfortunately firefox keeps on crashing.
I've tried all the theories on Firefox to solve it but still it keeps on crashing. This happens any time.
If i can't solve this i don't see no further options to make Chrome my default browser.
Who can provide me a solution?
Thank You very much.
tleg,
Are you sure that you have the latest AMD Radeon HD video drivers?

The send icon is greyed out. This happened after a crash. Tried all the solutions suggested
I was writing an e-mail and had just spell checked. Thunderbird crashed. When it came back up, the send icon is greyed out (as well as the spell check. I ran through all the help suggestions (including the profile removal). The computer I am having trouble with is Lion 10.7.5. I have it also on 10.6.8 (snow leopard). I am about to give up and start using this computer (10.8.5) for mail - pain in the ..... to have to move everything!
Have a look and make sure your accounts still appear in the settings.
Tools menu > account settings.. It might be something is just rubbish following corruption caused by the crash, but I think it would be fairly obvious just scrolling through the account settings if they look like junk. -
As it says above I lost all my bookmarks after upgrading to Firefox 4.
I have tried all the solutions under the Lost Bookmark page and they either do not apply or did not work.
I even found a old backup and imported it and it did not work.
I have seen several people say they have the same problem and have fixed it but never say how.. Please helpI've encountered the same problem; I (reluctantly) upgraded Firefox after years of happily using version 2, and discovered that I should have, apparently, saved my bookmarks before updating.
There is NO "places.sqlite" file anywhere on my hard drive.
Following the procedure at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks#Restoring_bookmark_backups restores the bookmarks folder saved *today*. . . after Firefox reverted to a *two year old file* and saved it over my existing one. (How do I know it's two years old? It has house search information from before my toddler's birth, that's how.)
There is no bookmarkbackups folder.
Searches across my hard drive for the following files turn up nothing useful:
* bookmarks.bak
* bookmarks.html
* bookmarks.html.moztmp
* bookmarks-(date).html
* bookmarks-(date).json
Oh, there *is* a bookmarks.html file that's larger than the 7/2 one that's been created; it is, however, from a transfer from IE bookmarks dated 2006.
None of the rest exit. Even searching for just the extension of .json turns up nothing.
I really, really want my bookmarks back, and I am not thrilled about this; I trusted Firefox not to screw up on an upgrade, and that's the only reason I didn't make a backup before installing. Silly me. -
Flash plugin crashes a lot more frequently since I updated it (the past month or so??) I have tried the latest Firefox version 3 and updated it to version 4.
I have tried all the solutions given such as complete uninstalling or changing the integer to -1I'm not sure anyone here knows more about the Java plugin than you do...
Were you starting the control panel from disk as administrator because it didn't work starting it through the Start menu (if you have Control Panel set to View by Category, the Java control panel is under "Programs"). -
Been trying to restore Ipod touch for days after updating Itunes. Error code #9. Stuck on restore screen. Tried all the solutions posted. Tried on 2 computers, Vista + XP. No device shown on computer. Thanks Apple! Didn't have this problem before update. How about rolling back your update?
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software. -
Hi Everyone, I have tried all the solutions mentioned by apple and still have a white screen with a blinking file folder with a question mark in the center, anyone have any ideas or experienced this?
Nooo or you would use OS X Recovery Mode: Disk Utilty and then Startup Disk.

Firefox tries to open but all that comes up is the Mozilla Crash Reporter and can't open past this point.
Do a clean (re)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Apps quit unexpectedly says thread 0 crash (?) tried all the recommended fixesd
Hi everyone - I know I'm on borrowed time with my 10 year old Mac mini but recently after installing new Camino and most recent Flash plugin that is compatible with 10.4.11 I started to have all apps quit unexpectedly, and so far I noticed it always happens right after trying to access Screen Saver in System Preferences or when I try to play a file in iTunes. I already repaired disk permissions and used disk repair from installer CD. I'm not able to copy the reports for some reason but they all say "thread 0 crash EXC.BAD.INSTRUCTION" The iTunes crash shows " libmathCommon.Adylib" in the reports. Anyone who attempts to help will get points from me - Thanks so much!!!
Hve you tried:
Uninstalling Camino
Repairing permissions
Are you sure you installed the correct version of Flash Player?
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 is for Snow Leopard onwards.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe. -
I have recently switched to Firefox from Google Chrome, and I am finding that I am unable to open any pdf files from the web in any way in Firefox. I cannot download them and open them in Adobe Reader, and I cannot preview them in Firefox, nor can I use the Adobe plugin. I have tried to use the solutions posed by users on this site, but none of them have worked. Any time I make a change to settings to try to solve this issue, the change never allows me to view the pdf file, and the setting reverts to the previous setting after the browser has been restarted. I don't care how I view the file, but I need to either be able to view it as a preview or I need to be able to download it.
I don't know if this is any help I have had a problem where the pdf files were not opening correctly which I think was the problem here. I spent hours of head scratching and have now found out what the problem is. Right click on the Adobe Reader Icon on the desktop. Select properties and then the compatibility tab. You will see the uppermost section in this screen is Compatibility mode. I have Windows 7 and mine was set to Windows XP. I changed that to Windows 7 and now the problem is resolved. In short use the above instructions to check you are using the right compatibility mode for the version of Windows you are using and your troubles should be over!!

Q5 is not starting/booting up. Tried all the solutions. Any suggestion?
Hello,
Around after two-three minutes, from when the battery of my Q5 was remaining around 2 percent, the device restarted automatically while I was typing an email.
While it was rebooting, I plugged in the charger. But somehow there was an infinite loop of rebooting process. The device was rebooting itself as soon as it was started. This happened for three times (three reboots). So while it was booting up for the third time, I unplugged the charger. This time it started normally. I waited for few moments, everything seemed OK, so I plugged it again. It re-started itself after I plugged it in, and started the loop again.
So I removed the charger. I was busy at the moment, but after 15-20 minutes, when I looked at the device, it was turned off. I don’t know why it was turned off though. I mean, whether cuz the battery was drained or cuz of some other reason.
Then I connected it to the charger, but the orange LED didn’t turn up. I waited for few (clock) minutes, no response from LED. I tried to turn on the device by pressing the power key, no response.
Then I turned on the laptop with MS Windows/Link on it, while device was still connected. Windows did not show any sign of a USB device being connected to the laptop. I opened up Link, I tried to reload the software. No luck there as the device can’t be reset as required by Link.
So, I checked if the USB cable was working, by connecting my Bold. I checked my Q5’s charger by connecting Bold to it. Everything was OK.
Then I searched online, and found these/threads solutions:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Q5/Blackberry-Q5-turned-off-and-wont-turn-back-on/...
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Q5/Can-t-start-up-Q5-after-shutdown/m-p/2610451#M6...
What I’ve done so far (before posting here):
• Checked the working state of charger/cable, and plugged it in the outlet (wall, not computer).
• Left the device charging for almost three hours (no any activity from LED during this period)
• After three hours, tried to start the device in usual manner. Held the power key for almost 20 seconds, no reaction from device/LED.
• Pressed both the volume keys simultaneously for almost 30 seconds. No response.
• Tried the last two steps again after disconnecting the device from charger.
Further details:
• All the installed apps, are installed from the BlackBerry World itself. No other apps were installed, not even .apk s.
• No media is stored on device memory, I keep everything on MMC. In total, usually 20 megabytes of the device memory is occupied by “user files”. These files contains only pdf, word, and .txt files.
• At any given moment (at least in last two months), almost 50% of the device memory is free.
I am not sure what the exact problem is. I mean, whether it is hardware or software malfunction. As I’m in India, usually after 20 minutes of charging backside of the device gets a little warm. Today, even after 3 hours of charging, the device is cold.
I do not have any problem to wipe the device clean/reloading the software. I’ve everything backed up; and I use enterprise on other BB device. All I want to do is to get the device started in any way, as soon as possible.
Please help folks!!
Thanks a lot in advance,
Best Regards,
keypaduser.You've done a pretty thorough job of troubleshooting. At this point I'd say it's time to contact your provider and get a warranty exchange (if it's less than a year old.)

I purchased a complete album - yet only 8 of the 11 songs will play. Tried all solutions recommended by Apple and nothing works. Any suggestions
If only three songs on the album are throwing that message at you, that suggests that the tracks are damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
I have tried all the solutions listed in these pages to no avail.
I have tried all of the solutions on these pages and nothing seems to work at all. I have a Netgear WGR612v1 wireless router which works with all my other equipment such as iphone4s, Asus tablet, HTC HD2 phone and my LG Laptop yet I cannot get my ipad to connect at all. Is there a router that does work without having to go through all these solutions or is this the same for all makes and we just have to live with it or return it to the store?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you
ColinThat's not the point. Are there other wifi stations, perhaps your neighbours', in range on the same channel? Use a wifi scanner to see what's in the area.
WPA2 is the best security to use, but it may be useful to test without a password to see if that changes things.
My Netgear router allows for more than wifi LAN; can you set up a unsecured one to test it? Pic from my Router Status page below:
There are also widespread reports on the Netgear site refering to iOS6 and wifi problems. -

I see that nearly 100 people have indicated on the forum that they have experienced this same problem. I am trying to convert from IE9 to Firefox 12, but having to log into my home page every time I open up the browser isn't acceptable. It was never an issue with IE.
I just had this problem too. I hadn't logged out in months until today because I wanted to check another att email account I hardly ever use. After I did this, I had the problem where I had to click "sign in". Then I realized I just did Windows updates this past weekend. I also kept searching and found another post that suggested to go to "Tools > Options > Advanced", and disable the "Use hardware acceleration when available" option. So I unchecked that option and exited Firefox then opened Firefox and it was fixed (I had signed in before exiting). So I decided to go back into Tools and check the box to use hardware acceleration. I exited Firefox and opened it and my att.yahoo home page logged me in without me having to 'click' sign in. I hope this does it for you.

Brush tool automatically jumps when near window edge
Our company is migrating from CS1 to CS3 (finally!). We found a curious issue with the brush tool in Photoshop: in CS1, when you click near the edge of your open file window, it just draws to that point - and stops. That's it. In CS3, when you click
