Firefox takes time loading and keeps stopping every few seconds, but only in the last week

I have had updates for Windows and wonder if there is a clash between the two. I also seem to be getting more errors thn I ever had. I have tried uninstalling FF and reinstalling it and the results are still the same. It is damm annoying to have had such a great website that just seems to have malfunctioned overnight 25 April seems to have been the date, anything changed at your end

hey try a smc reset
EDIT (smc reset
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.)
if that doesnt help look at replacing the batteries in your magic mouse and try it then
if the issue still presists take it into a apple store and they can test it there to see whats up

  • Firefox is locking up VERY frequently after every few seconds unless I minimize the window and maximize it again. But then in a few seconds it locks up again, unable to click anything or DO anything

    Firefox is locking up VERY frequently after every few seconds unless I minimize the window and maximize it again. But then in a few seconds it locks up again, I am unable to click anything or DO anything and it is becoming extremely annoying! Ya'll just released a new version that I'd hoped would have fixed this issue, apparently not...and I also can't select an option in a drop down box, I have to use my keyboard to do so...

    Yeah I'm seeing this as well. A force quit and relaunch seems to solve the problem for a while.
    IMHO the app has just gone downhill in the last few years. Useful tools like browser history from the back button are hidden / rendered useless (click and hold doesn't work so well from a track pad), and it's performance just isn't what it used to be.

  • When I play either music or movies on my ipod touch it stops every few seconds and I have to restart the song/film.  AT the same time, it won't hold a volume contol.  It jumps louder or softer, or simply jams on either very low or maximum volume.  Help

    No one here is going to do anything about it. Send feedback to Apple.

  • In the external Quick Time Player the clips stop every few seconds. What to do?

    In the last weeks I cannot play YouTube clips in the browser but only in the external Quick Time Player. But the clips stop every few seconds. What to do?

    If YouTube videos are buffering in you browser, then it sounds more like a problem with your Internet speed.
    If you contact your Internet Service Provider, they should be more than happy to help.

  • My ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  does not happen with any other streaming video service.

    my ipad streaming purchased video from itunes stops every few seconds.  This does not happen with any other streaming video service.  I have restarted and rebooted already. 

    I've tried both things, but video still stutters.. Have also tried removing profile, and complete reinstall of firefox.
    I'm on 24 Mbit cable and the only user atm. IE and Chrome seems to work without stuttering.
    I've having this stuttering every ~5th second, like a small "1/4 sec buffering".

  • Iphone 4 keeps restarting every 3 min but only when being used

    Iphone 4 keeps restarting every 3 min but only when being used, it doesn't matter what I do with it, it has to restart itself during usage, it's so annoying. I have restored but still no luck, currently trying to update the software once I've finished downloading it but I know it will keep restarting when connected to itunes.
    Anyways when I do decided to bring it to the apple store would I need to bring the receipt with me?
    because i dont have it anymore only the phone, box charger and usb
    thanks

    No. The warranty is tied to the device, not the individual & all iphone 4's are still under warranty.

    droid ultra wont turn on  blk screen and phone vibrates every few seconds

        Hello es1040,
    The Droid Ultra is an awesome device with a wide range of features to enjoy. We're excited to partner with you and get your phone on so you can enjoy said features. Is there any physical or liquid damage on the device? Also, is the device charged? I would suggest doing a reset to get the phone back to normal. Here's a link on how to do so.

  • My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position.  In vertical, it works fine.  I have powered off and on, checked that Safari Instant is on, and cleared Safari cache.  Any help will be appreciated.

    My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position.   Vertically, it works fine.  I have powered off and then back on.  I have checked that Safari instant is on, and I have cleared Safari cache.  Nothing has worked so far.

    Okay -- it fixed itself.  Without any intervention, after all else had failed, and I was willing to live evermore with vertical searches.  If only everything else in my house mysteriously recovered from the broken state.
    Have no idea what was/is going on with the disappearing keypad.

    make sure it's not being connected to by any of the other two
    one can only connect 1 device at the time and just by waking up sometimes a headset connects to a device
    automaticly
    then forget the bluetooth device in OS X and put the headset in pairing mode / discovery mode and connect with it once again with the mac

  • I am halfway through my 4s contract and wanted to buy a 5, but only see the 64 gig available to me for 649 but that requires a 2 year contract. Where can I buy w ou getting locked into a contract and for how much?

    I am halfway through my 4s contract and wanted to buy a 5, but only see the 64 gig available to me for 649 but that requires a 2 year contract. Where can I buy w ou getting locked into a contract and for how much?

    Your contract is with your service provider - it has nothing at all to do with Apple.
    You can buy a contract free and/or unlocked iPhone from Apple and use it with whatever carrier you wish.  Your contract terms with your current service provider remain in effect for your iPhone 4s though, so if you cancel with them (or port your number out, which accomplishes the same thing) you will owe them early termination fees and so forth.
    Even if you pay full retail but want to use the phone with your current service provider, you are still obligated to complete the terms of your existing contract.

  • Why is my 24-inch LED display flashing black (and sometimes scrambles) every few seconds?

    I have recently upgraded to a new iMac: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7. 4 GB 1333 MHz DDr3. AMD Radeon HD 6970M. 1024 MB. Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4. I have it attached to a 24-inch Cinema Display.
    Before I switched to my new iMac, it would blink black a couple of times a day. This was going on for a LONG time, but was not a big deal. However, now that I have switched to the new iMac, it is every few seconds. And it has now added the "scrambled" screen to it's repertoire. Fun. And, as I am typing this...it just went black and has not come back on.
    I've read a few threads on this happening, but haven't found any substantial evidence as to what is causing this. It's beyond annoying. Has anyone learned anything new?

    Okay. Murphy's Law. As soon as I posted this, I found an answer (hopefully!). My situation fit the criteria at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4045?viewlocale=en_US and I installed the update and so far, so good. I'll keep you posted.

  • T500 wireless connects and disconnect​s every few seconds

    The machine has the Intel 5100 adapter in it, and runs W7 x64. There are numerous other devices using wireless in the same house, including two T61ps, which do not have this problem.
    The T500 is using the latest Access Connections for W7, and the latest Intel drivers (the machine is 10 days old, and is fully updated using Lenovo System Update and Windows Update. Not much 3rd party software yet due to this and another problem with the T500.)
    Every few seconds, the wireless will disconnect, then reconnect immediately. I have tried turning off power management for the wireless adapter, including telling Windows not to power it off for power savings. This occurs running on AC power, haven't tried on battery. (This is irritating enough as it is, but it makes W7's Windows Explorer keep moving things up and down in the display as the network items disappear and reappear.)

    Hi Graham,
    Try increasing the roaming of your wireless card from aggressive to low and power output to maximum in the power management option.
    Hope it helps.

  • How do I count and display events every few seconds and then convert the counted values into events per minute? (for a heart rate monitor)

    Hi everyone,
    I'm building a heart rate monitor as a final year project with my lab partner using the NI USB-6009 and Labview 2009. We have managed to obtain a signal using a photo transciever, smooth it out and count the events, however the count is incremental.
    We wish to count the number of pulses we obtain for a few seconds (5-10 for example) and then use this value to obtain a pulse rate in beats per minute (e.g. 10 pulses in the first 10 seconds would give an estimated BPM of 60 etc etc).
    Does anybody have ides on how we could implement this? We have tried timed loops, elapsed time VI's and other things but nothing gives us what we need.
    Thanks in advance for any help that is offered.
    Jeshua Graham.

    We are very new to Labview. We are taking a raw signal from our DAQ and then using VIs to filter and then trigger counts on rising edges. I have attached our vi file to this post for you to look at (I hope that is what you mean by code).
