For some reason,firefox is real slow responding,even when I've had in excess of 100Mbps.

That pretty well somes it up...slow.Right now I'm having to use another browser.

You may have ad / mar-ware changing your settings.
First, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
'''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
'''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
know what it is, use a web search.

    for some reason Firefox wont start up i also have Google chrome and that works fine firefox is the only one not working please help.

    The contacts that belong to your exchange accounts and your Google account will not sync with iCloud.  If you want to sync these contacts with iCloud, you would need to copy them to the iCloud account and then disable contact syncing with these other accounts.  (If you didn't disable contacts syncing with these accounts, you would see duplicates of these contacts on your phone -- one from the external account, and one from iCloud.)  If you want to do this, do the following:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your other accounts you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email before proceeding to step 3.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and confirm that this is set to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap your each of your exchange accounts (if you have more than one listed) as well as your Gmail/Google account and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts.  This will remove the contacts from these accounts from your phone.
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from these accounts back to your phone, and to iCloud.  All your contacts should now be in iCloud and be visible on icloud.com.

  • For some reason FCP is now making multi files when I capture called -av

    For some reason FCP is now making multi files when I capture called -av
    I capture one clip but I get 7 files.
    sineparade live-1-av 1.91 GB
    sineparade live-2-av 1.91 GB
    sineparade live-3-av 1.91 GB
    sineparade live-4-av 1.91 GB
    sineparade live-5-av 1.91 GB
    sineparade live-6-av 334.1 MB
    sineparade live-av 1.91 GB
    I don't know why this started in recent captures but it is eating up disk space as it is 7 times larger than it needs to be and only the last one works.

    Is there a way to get these files to be joined together into one file easily. I capture on a FAT32 hard drive but then transfer the files onto my edit machine and would prefer to keep everything archived there as a single file.
    Any programs or scripts that I can use. I have figured out that you can open each file in Quicktime and then save as a self contained file, but I was wondering if there is a better way.

  • I used to work on few open windows with a number of open tags, for some reason firefox stopped opening new window, any reason why?

    I have been using firefox for a while. I usually work on a number of windows (sometimes up to 8) with 8 - 10 tags in each. I was using a trial version of Nero and was triggered for an upgrade which i stopped half way through. I dont know if this has caused this problem. Now I cannot open any link in a new window. It will only open in a new tag of the same window.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == when i stopped an upgrade from Nero

    -> IF you use Privacy Cleanup softwares like CCleaner, DON'T SELECT FIREFOX IN ITS SETTINGS. These softwares can be responsible for Deleting your Firefox Settings.
    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
    * Make sure you are using the '''"Remember History"''' setting as described in this article -> [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    * [[Restore previous session - Configure when Firefox shows your most recent tabs and windows]]
    Check and tell if its working.

  • I cannot change my default search engine, despite trying all your suggestions. A friend suggested an add on- google default but for some reason Firefox is not

    I have recently had the problem of Yahoo search becoming my default search engine. I loathe Yahoo having had many problems with them in the past so refuse to use them. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing...no change. I tried all your suggested fixes and none works. There is now no mention of Yahoo when I go to change search settings, but despite this Yahoo is the default search engine. This is intolerable for me and I am seriously on the verge of removing firefox for good. Stop me!!! I am having to send this in a different search engine as in Mozilla firefox this account is inactive...work that one out! It means there is no point giving you troubleshooting info...

  • For some reason, Firefox is not saving ANY of my history. The back button is working, but I cannot open recently closed tabs, save tabs for previous visits or even view past history - it's just not there. Why won't my computer save history?

    I can navigate backward and forward within one tab, or within one browser session, but as soon as the tab or session closes it's like all record of it is wiped from my computer. I'm not sure if the problem is my computer or firefox, but there doesn't seem to be anything like this mentioned out there and I would really appreciate some help.

    Your useragent says your are running Firefox 3.6.13 -> is that true.
    If not, do the following and post back your new Firefox version:
    * Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
    * If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
    * Filter = general.useragent.
    * Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
    * Then restart Firefox

  • All my plugins keep crashing after I try to use them. The two main ones I really want working are silverlight and adobe flash player but for some reason Firefox 9.0.1 keeps crashing them. All plugins are updated

    All plugins are updated. This has only started happening recently. Plugins seems to launch for a few seconds (no more than 5) and then crash. Chances are that there is more than a problem with just Silverlight and Flash but they are the only two that I really use.
