Firefox tends to freeze and/or crash when using adobe 9 to make or save pdfs

When using adobe acrobat 9 pro, I have had the experience of Firefox freezing in a "thinking mode" or just straight crashing when printing a pdf of a web page, or even saving a pdf that downloaded. Sometimes, an error stating adobe acrobat plugin failed will load, but not always.

Thank you for your answer, we did not start the deployment of FF3 yet.
FF3 support is still under development (for NW 7.1)
Do you mean that Firefox 3 will not be supported on NW 7.0 ?

  • Work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying over to photoshop

    work is lost after illustrator freezes and then crashes when copying items over to photoshop, then when re-opening the illustrator file it gets to the end of reading the file to open then quits again? this keeps happening!

    afrill,
    It seems that you file has become corrupted.
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way.
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error -occurred-pdf2dtp-file-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
    Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

  • Firefox crashes when using Adobe Flash

    I am using the newest version of Firefox (5.0.1) and the newest version of Adobe Flash (10.3.183.5) without any other add-ons. For some reason Firefox keeps crashing when playing Flash. Anything from Youtube, Flash webpages, online games, etc. It's not just the Flash add-on that crashes, but the entire browser.
    I have to force it to close it via Task Manager (Windows 7 Professional).
    When looking at the crash reports (about:crashes), it says there are none.
    I have tried restarting, uninstalling both add-on and browser and I have even reinstalled my entire operating system. Nothing has changed.
    This is obviously not my fault. Please fix this.

    Hi roy6640,
    Have you looked at the Knowledge Base articles [[Troubleshooting plugins]] or [[Using the Adobe Reader plugin with Firefox]]? There is some good information in there. You may want to try reinstalling the plugin as well or updating it if it is out of date.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Firefox freezing, and eventually crashing when opening a tab?

    Just yesterday this started, at first youtube videos froze the browser (but I could still hear them playing) and now I can't even open a tab without firefox freezing and just eventually having to end the process. It was working perfectly before yesterday.

    Can you run Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]? If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
    Also, please go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page. Some of them are out of date and you'll need to update those first before we can proceed further.
    By the way, you can view Youtube videos in HTML5 now instead of in Flash. All you need to do is to click the link at the foot of this page: http://www.youtube.com/html5 There's nothing to download and you don't have to fill in any forms. The player will switch automatically once you click that link.

  • Firefox will freeze and become unresponsive when using google search from google website

    Whenever I use google, which is often since it is my homepage, unless the thing I want to search for is within the first couple of auto-searches that pop up when I'm typing, the auto search will stop and if I press enter or click the search icon Firefox will freeze and I have to shut it down and try again. However, I have no problems when I try it with Firefox in Private browsing.

  • Safari and Firefox crash when using Adobe Shockwave

    Hi
    I have done some research and it seems that this is an old problem but I haven't managed to find a solution. I am trying to watch an animation that uses Adobe Shockwave. I have run it on my old PC using explorer and there isn't a problem bit when i run it on my Mac it shuts down the browser and says there is an error with the IMLLib plug-in.
    Does anyone know what this means?
    I have uninstalled everything and installed latest versions of everything and still it kicks me out!!!
    Any tips advice or info would be very much appreciated!

    Hi Fireflower,
    Welcome to Discussions!
    Just to clarify, do you mean Adobe Shockwave or Adobe Flash? Could you give us an example of an animation that you've tried to watch unsuccessfully?

  • Illustrator CS6 crashing when using Image Trace - Make on Mac OSX

    Hi all,
    I have a user on a new mac that is just a few months old. It has all Mac updates and all Adobe updates, has passed all Mac hardware tests (and a separate memory test) and I ran the disk permissions check yesterday.
    The issue is that whenever she uses Image Trace - Make illustrator will crash completely. It doesn't give the spinning wheel of death, it just closes. This happens every time on any image file. While we haven't run every possible command on Illustrator I'm sure, this is the only command that crashes the program.
    I have tried deleting the preferences file, but it did not make any difference.
    On the crash report, it does give me a details option which gives a heck of a lot of info but I don't know what parts are relevant exactly so I'll refrain from posting the entire thing.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Have you submitted the crash log to Adobe? If yes than can you please tell me what ID you used during the submission of the crash log.
    If possible can you join the connect session:

  • Firefox will not open and keeps crashing when I attempt to open it, why?

    I have had several crash reports sent to me by firefox and I have not gone to any sites that I don't normally go to. I want to know why it keeps to this and what I need to do to get this situation fixed. I have sent crash reports and uninstalled/reinstalled this program and nothing has been fixed. I need to use this site so that I can use my bookmarks and do my work.

    How to Enter iPhone Recovery Mode
    1) Connect the USB cable used to sync your device to your computer, but do not connect it to your iPhone.
    2) Turn your iPhone off by holding down the sleep/hold button in the top right corner until the slider appears at the top. Slide it. If your phone won't respond to that, hold the sleep/wake button and the home button together until the screen goes dark.
    3) When the phone is off, hold down the home button and connect the USB cable (which should still be attached to your computer) to the dock connector. The iPhone will turn on and display the Apple logo. Keep holding the home button until the iTunes logo/USB cable appear on the screen. You can let it go then. The phone is now in recovery mode.
    4) If the red empty battery icon appears onscreen, let the phone charge for a few minutes and then restart this process.
    5) When the phone is in recovery mode, a window will pop up in iTunes saying that the phone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored.

  • Firefox 3.6.13 installed ok, crashes when using HOTMAIL (loads okay, any attempt to enter INBOX crashes Firefox totally. Reinstalled 4x, no change

    Using modern HP desktop with Windows.... updated to Fiurefox 3.6.13 this AM. Now I can open HOTMAIL okay, but when I click on any of the goto buttons (eg INBOX) Firefox crashes, apologizes, and we go through it all again. I have uninstalled Firefox 4x, reinstalled 4x with fresh downloads. What's up?

  • Fix for illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop crashing when using keys place

    I suffered too long and couldn't find a solution under I read this. I wanted to pass it on to you so I can give back.
    Everytime in illustrator when I tried to relink my files or place something, it would crash. In InDesign the same thing if I exported. I know there are many more, but those were the ones that I was using. Go here:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402521.html
    viola!!

    Nini's probably right. But I remember having the same sort of trouble in Illy5. There was some sort of conflict between Acrobat and Illy so that when you had been using Acrobat and then switched back to Illy it became impossible to place images or select already placed images without Illy crashing. The crash was so pervasive that you had to restart your machine to get things back on track; it wasn't enough to just restart Illy. We never discovered the reason but the problem disappeared on upgrading to Illy6.

  • Treo 755P from TELUS freezes and/or reboots when using bluetooth headset

    My treo 755P has worked fine for almost a year. I recently purchased a Motorola H870 headset.  Since then the phone freezes up and/or reboots several times a day. Sometimes when I am dialing and sometimes apparently randomly.  I have worked with my provider, TELUS, but have no resolution. I am using the latest Palm desktop software and I have tried a hard reset on the phone.  Any other ideas??
    Thanks.

    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

    Hi..  Welcome to the Palm forums.  Lets put things in order here:
    1- got 755p and worked fine for almost a year
    2- purchased Motorola H870 and 755p starts freezing.
    Bottom line here is that you 755p worked find until the H870 was introduced.  This headset is not on Palms bluetooth compatibility list.  For the list see this link:   http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/nua/launchKB.asp?c=44829 .
    I would recommend that you do a hard reset and do not sync or use the H870 for atleast 24hrs.  If the 755p works fine that will confirm the H870 is the problem.  If your still having the problem then you will need to look at a repair/replacment. 

  • Has anyone else experienced InDesign CC and 2014 crashing when using Data Merge?

    I have already tried the Shift+Ctrl+Alt+Cmd keystroke upon start-up and saying "yes" to clearing the preferences, but unlike previously where this solved the issue (a few months back, until Adobe released an update which meant this was no longer needed) this hasn't worked. I have also tried using both a CSV and a TXT file as the source file, same crash.
    Anyone found a solution? I am using Mac OSX.9. Same thing happens on a colleagues Mac, so isn't my machine.

    This is about all the information I could provide, hence why I was asking a general question. If I'd known what steps to take I wouldn't be asking. I have solved the problem, it seemed to be the InDesign file, not the data file.
