Firefox wont close properly after a while. Buttons dont work.

I'm having a problem with Firefox recently. Everytime I open Firefox and leave it open for more than 5 minutes the program wont close properly. The red X/minimize buttons stop working. I can close tabs though.
There are two ways for me exit firefox when this happens
1: Clciking file--> exit
2: opening the Taskmanager and stopping Firefox.
Anyone got any idead on what's causing this? Plugin clash? What's the best way to figure it out if it is?

Nah, It's not really a hang, as such. I can keep surfing away for hours with this problem. It only is a problem once I open a menu like the preferences window/addons window or go to close Firefox. If I close Firefox by using the File-->exit method with multiple tabs open it asks me if I want to Save and quit, quit or cancel. It then wont let chose from those. the menu icons highlight but my mouse click doesn't register and wont let me select anything.

  • Wont close properly after using google & wont open again without using taskmanager

    after the last firefox update if I use google a few times firefox doesnt close properly & wont restart unless I either reboot the machine or go into taskmanager & close it down there. It then re-opens correctly but with the last google pages displayed (even if they've been closed down before I attempted to close firefox)
    I'm not the only person with this problem I know of at least one other.

    I have the same problem. If I open a google site, the browser no longer responds and the process must be stopped in task manager.
    This problem occurs on all google websites. For example mail.google.com, google.com and reader.google.ch.

  • My iPod touch wont turn on..but the buttons dont work

    When the buttons broke it was still working,but i had to turn it on with a charger. But now when i plug it in nothing happens!!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    For MAC or PC
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

    I have the exact same problem.  I noticed this started after some windows update just prior to upgrading to Windows 7.  And then it got worse after the upgrade. 
    I'm having to go into the task manager and end the smartmenu.exe application just to stop the nagging volume bar across the middle of the screen and just to use the computer, but the Volume still jumps around rapidly.
    Please, HP read this and help.

  • Sound and brightness buttons dont work anymore

    my sound and brightness buttons dont work any more unless I hold down the function button. This happened after I downloaded the new update I think. Is there any key combination that I could have hit that made this happen?

    Go to System Preferences->KeyBoard & Mouse->KeyBoard and make sure "Use the F1-F12 keys to control software featues" is off. It probably got turned on somehow by the update.

  • Volume button dont work correctly

    Hello,
    I have iPhone 4S on 5.1.1 which I bought in September last year.
    Yesterday when I listen to music with my iPhone I found out the the MINUS volume button dont work correctly.
    It's need to push him hard to decrease the volume. however the PLUS volume button work correctly.
    In addition there is no "click" sound when I press the minus volume button.
    what should I do?
    I live in ISRAEL and there isn't Apple Store here so the only solution for me is to contact the carrier which I bought the iPhone from them but they probably will require payment for the repair.

    sorry but i actually need to use the volume buttons Jujusoccer11
    i've tried resetting already and restoring from back up already but still has the same problem lllaass,
    i'll try restoring to factory defaults now, i hope  it works

  • Qosmio x300 and Win7 - FN buttons dont work

    I reinstalled Windows 7 and now the FN buttons dont work. I have installed the newest version of VAP, the flash card utility is running. So I have no idea.
    Did I forget to install something?
    Or is there a tool who installs all drivers for my Qosmio x300 in one piece?

    Hi
    Normally its enough if you install Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility to use the FN keys. But make sure that both tools are released for Windows 7 and not for old Vista.
    As far as I know if you search for Qosmio X300 on the Toshiba page you will only find VAP for Windows 7. The Flash Cards Support Utility is an older version. I would recommend install a newer version, for example search for Satellite L550. There you can find Flash Cards Support Utility for Windows 7, its version 1.63.0.4

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes, I did try with Xperia Z3 and it works fine for me. If you have tried safe mode, you should perhaps try a software repair on your phone via PC Companion to see if this can help:
    http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/
    In PC Companion you press start on Support Zone > Start on Update the phone/tablet software > Repair phone/tablet (the blue clickable link in the message) > Follow these steps without having your device connected to the PC.
    Follow the instruction that appears in the program and do not connect your device until this guide tells you how to connect it.
