Firefox only works after I re-boot my computer

I just got a new computer last week. It is running Windows 8 - 64 bit. I installed Firefox, used it for a week, set up my bookmarks, etc. and it worked fine. The other day when I logged in and opened Firefox, I couldn't click on anything - nothing would happen - it was like it was frozen. I went into Internet Explorer and also into Google Chrome and they both worked fine - I could click on things and it would do what it was supposed to do. So, I re-booted my computer and then Firefox worked fine. Same thing the next day, Firefox only worked after I re-booted my computer...and also today, same thing. Why is it frozen when I first go into it, but if I re-boot the whole computer, it works? Has me baffled. Any help would be appreciated, because it is my favorite browser. But if this keeps up, I won't be using it anymore. Thank you!
I have my home page set to Yahoo, so that's where it goes when I open it. When I get there, I can't click on my e-mail, nothing in the toolbar, it's totally frozen.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
:[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. Please help!

    Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. I don't get a spinning ball, it just stops working at whatever page it's on. I can close the program just fine but when I re-open it, either safari or firefox, it freezes trying to load the hompage. This started a few days ago after trying to stream a movie on my computer. I'm on a Mac Air OS X Version 10.6.8 and have downloaded all updates. When I go into finder, it says I have over 80 gigs available. Is there some other memory cache that I need to check? Thanks so much for your help.

    It's not a router problem as I explained in my post. If it was a router problem then I wouldn't have the problem everywhere I go. It is an issue with the software.
    Then I guess the millions of people running 10.5.7 with no issues are just hallucinating that their machines are working fine?
    I'm not trying to belittle your issues; you're certainly having them and I know first hand how annoying an intermittent AirPort issue can be. (In fact, mine was due to an AirPort driver bug that no one else seemed to suffer from.)
    The single best diagnostic you could do is take your system running 10.5.7 to an Apple Store, and try using their in-store network.
    If your machine performs flawlessly, it may be a router issue.
    If your machine has connectivity issues there, it may be a hardware problem with your machine.
    There have been numerous people in multiple threads over the years who swore that an update was buggy because things used to work, but returned later to sheepishly admit that they took their machine in, a problem was found and fixed, and now their Mac works flawlessly with the newer software.
    But simply reinstalling 10.5.5 in no way means the explanation of how firmware bugs may be at play here is incorrect.
    In the context of that explanation, all you've done is possibly reinstall software that asks to add "2 + 3."

  • Time Machine backups only work after restart

    Hi
    Getting frustrated as Time Machine backups only work after a restart. Work for a few hours and then get stuck with Backing up: XXMB of XXGB. I have left it on this for many hours ie overnight without completion
    I have a Mid 2014 MBP 13 in running 10.10.2
    I backup onto an external USB via a hub.
    Things I have tried with review of Pondini great site which has helped with different TM backup problems.
    Disk permissions and repair of SSD on MBP (were errors but did not solve issue)
    Direct USB connection
    Backup via Airport Extreme
    Re-index spotlight
    Reformat USB disk
    New USB disk!
    Below is log (backupd filtered) of latest backup attempts including final completed occuring after restart.

    Backup completed successfully.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ 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 and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

  • Adobe Connect Session only works after 5:00 pm

    I have a bizzare situation where my adobe connect session only works after 5:00 pm. I have two other users who tried this and the session just hangs and then there is an error . But when both of us try after 5:00 it works fine. We are using IE 8.0. Also this will work fine in firefox at any time of the day. We have to roll this out to 2,000 users and need to get this working during the day.
    Thanks
    Aurangzeb Nisar

    So there is a troubleshooting error that occurse.
    Then I go through the adobe connect test results and it fails at adobe connection test.
    So here is more details:
    Now I can get it to work when I use the content outside the Saba LMS that I am using.
    But when I use it through the LMS then I get an connect error.
    "Adobe connect connection test" Unable to connect . This only happens through IE 8.0
    When using firefox through Saba LMS it works fine.

  • Accordion menu only working after refreshing

    Hi,
    I created my menu by putting module menu version2 code: {module_menu, version="2", menuId="5475", moduleTemplateGroup="Prodcut Menu"} in a page template. It created the correct format of menu I want:
    <div id="ProductMenu">
         <ul id="ProductMenuList" class="clearfix">
         <li class="ProductOne">       
              <a href="/Products/productone">ProductOne</a>           <ul class="clearfix">
                   <li class="subProductOne1">
                   <li class="subProductOne2">
                   <li class="subProductOne3">               <li class="subProductOne4">
               </ul>
         </li>
         <li class="ProductTwo">         
              <a href="/Products/productone">ProductTwo</a>
               <ul class="clearfix">
                   <li class="subProductTwo1">               <li class="subProductTwo2">               <li class="subProductTwo3">                <li class="subProductTwo4">           </ul>
         </li>
        </ul>
    </div>
    I need to make it an accordion menu. So I used jquery ui. But the accordion menu only works after I refresh the page. Here are the scripts I have at the head of the page template:
    <link href="styles/jquery-ui.css" rel="stylesheet" />
            <script src="javascripts/jquery-1.8.3.js"></script>
            <script src="javascripts/jquery-ui.js"></script>
      <script>$(function() {$( "#ProductMenuList" ).accordion();});
      </script> 
    The link path works absolutely fine and the menu works at localhost. I also tried creating an external js for the script,  and also put it at the end of body. But no luck. Could the code: {module_menu, version="2", menuId="5475", moduleTemplateGroup="Prodcut Menu"} be the reason that makes the script called before page content is created? Any ideas?

  • Dell Inspiron 7537 - Sound only works after resuming from suspend

    Hello,
    So my sound does not work after boot, only once I resume from suspend. So, once I turn on my computer, and I load sound, nothing work (everything is unmuted in Alsa) - then if I suspend my computer and resume - the sound works every time.
    I use Alsa and here is my amixer output (before and after suspend is the same) :

  • Add-ons for android Firefox stop working after reboot

    I have Firefox (ver. 21.0) installed on my Ramos W30 tablet running ICS (4.0.4) and my UG007 android stick running JB (4.1.1). They both have the same problem. After a reboot, the add-ons stop working. If you look at the add-ons, all the info which would show below "options" is gone. The only way I've been able to get them working again is to uninstall and reinstall the add-ons.
    Any other way to fix this or prevent this from happening?

    I only use 2 add-ons and it happens with both. I use adblock and tabstothefront. They both stop working after reboot.

  • Firefox stops working after computer goes to sleep 37.0.1

    Running Win7 Home Premium and Firefox 37.0.1. Since this upgrade, when any of my three computers goes to sleep, Firefox stops working. Sometimes the process can be exited, but regardless, Firefox cannot be reloaded and the computer must be rebooted. When the computer has gone to sleep, and Firefox has stopped working, other browsers, such as Explorer also say they cannot connect to the internet. The fact that this problem simultaneously appeared on different computers following this upgrade suggests that this is a Firefox problem. The only way I can avoid this is to exit Firefox after every use. In many cases, the only web page visited during a session is google.

    This is a known issue, and the programers are looking at it.

  • How do i set up my iPhone to chime when a new email arrives? right now, the chime only works after I tap the mail icon

    How do I set up my 4S phone to chime when a new email arrives?  Right now, the chime only sounds after I tap the mail icon.  I need an alert to check my mail.  Comcast mail.  Settings for mail set at "fetch new data". Thank you

    Try if this works for you
    1. Tap Settings on Home Screen
    2. Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    3. Tap on Fetch New Data
    4. Turn "Push" to On
    5. Back to Mail, Contacts, Calendars again
    6. Under "Advanced", make sure that it is set to "Push" for all your mail accounts
    Push means the server will literally push the mails to your iPhone whenever there is new mail. Fetch like the word says is where you have to manually update to receive new mail (what you are doing now)

  • Why is it that Firefox only works on my machine for two months and then it has to be uninstalled and reinstalled before it will work past that 2 month time?

    Since I started using Firefox on a regular basis it seems that every 2 months I have uninstall and then reinstall before I can get this browser to open from the desktop or the program list. Is there another way to open this browser than having to right click on the icon on the desktop and click on "open"?

    What doesn't work after 2 months? Having the issue present next time and contacting us (even if it means using a different browser) would help us troubleshoot your issue. At this moment we can't do much. I would suggest a clean reinstall:
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • Responsibility rules : Agent determination only works after restarting the WF

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing a very strange issue related to agent determination in one of our custom workflow:
    For agent determination we are using a responsibility rule with two parameters "Company code" and "Plant".
    The responsibility rule works well and returns the agents for all the company code.
    Recently I have added few company codes to this responsibility rule in the same way we used to maintain and simulate it . It returns the correct agent for newly added company codes but at run time the agent determination is getting failed and the WF goes into an error because of it. However when i restart the WF via SWPR it works well and the agent determination works well either.
    This is only happening for newly added company codes the old ones agent determination work well at the run-time.
    Pls suggest what could cause this problem. If there is a problem in responsibility rule then why it works after restarting from SWPR.
    Thanks in advance. The helpful/correct answers will be rewarded.
    Regards,
    Him

    Hi Rick,
    Thanks for replying.
    1. Can you replicate this problem in the test system?
    Yes I could replicate this issue in test system and it works fine there.
    2. Is this a true responsibility rule or does e.g. a function module get called?
    We have a responsibility where several responsibilities have been added with two parameters "company codes" and "plant". Every responsibility has a POSITION assigned into it and this position contains the related users.
    This responsibility rule is getting called in one other rule with FM. Here in this another rule we are calling the responsibility rule by using the standard FM  RH_GET_ACTORS to fill the ACTOR_TAB.
    I have tried to simulate both the rules and it returned correct agents but failing at run time.
    Regards,
    Him

  • Wireless only works after "iwlist wlan0 scan"

    I just managed to get wireless working on my laptop, but it does not start on boot.
    I have made a network-profile and referred to it from rc.conf.
    It just gives a timeout error when booting, and the same if I try to start it with netcfg. But if I run "iwlist wlan0 scan" first and then netcfg its running fine.
    Can anyone help me fix this?
    Is something missing when booting?

    iphitus wrote:FightRight: It should still work after rebooting, did you upgrade your kernel or change anything else? Was netcfg2 updated? in which case, you'd need to uncomment it again.
    Hi James
    I have upgrade my Kernel and the netcfg2 scripts but there is still the same problem. Maybe i should uninstall all of these things and reinstall it again.
    The mysterious thing is if i reboot my system i get an error "Wireless assosiation failed". If i open a term and repeat often the commend /etc/rc.d/net-profiles restart sometimes it helps to get a connection. But then i have to set the default route to gateway.
    You see it is all a little bit crazy on my machine.:rolleyes:
