FP10 very very slow on Firefox 3, WinXp SP3

Hi everybody !
It's been a while I've had this problem on Flash Player, even
before installing FP10 (don't remember when it began but lastly it
has been irritating me a lot more, so here I am to find a solution
with your help ! ^^) :
I'm experiencing very very big lagging with almost all kind
of flash applications. Even with small flash games on the web, my
CPU usage often jumps to 100% until I quit the flash, and I often
runs as slow as 5 or even 2 fps...
I already tried to uninstall and reinstall the Flash Player
with the Adobe uninstaller, but the same problem reappears again...
I'm currently running the Flash Player v10.0.12.36, under
Firefox 3 and Windows XP SP3.
My computer is quite ok for this kind of thing (1.73gHz,
nVidia Geforce 6800GO 256Mb, memory 1Go) so I don't think its a
power problem...
Could someone have an idea on how to solve this very
frustrating problem ?

I've been doing research about this excessively high CPU usage problem (100%!) for weeks because I have also experienced it with my  laptop. Just recently, I have finally found the solution. The problem is not your browser or your OS or your pc's memory. The problem is caused by authorization for flash player.
Read the link (posted below) carefully and follow the steps accordingly. If you have already done steps 1 through 6 with your computer, you can go straight to step 7.

Please let me know also if the link solves your problem. I am sharing this because Adobe seems unable to provide solutions to this, and I don't want to hear people suffer.

  • Flash plays very laggy/slow in firefox.

    I have this problem for a while, The Flash player doesn't work in my Firefox browser. It works great in Chrome and IE.
    When I log on a site that has flash, the mouse cursor gets really heavy and the flash video is very laggy and slow.
    It's not the case on YouTube or any other Video site I try. However if I go to : http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
    the flash animation on the top of the page is laggy and slow.
    I had recently found out that this is also the case with another application I use: CakePoker (http://cakepoker.com/en/Default.aspx).
    It's makes it impossible to play.
    I've been trying to fix it for a while, uninstalled and reinstalled several times, with no success.
    Help please.
    Thanks in advance

    Are you saying it's a well known issue?
    At least It isn't only me...
    Can anyone help me please?

  • Gmail performance is very slow in Firefox 4.

    Gmail performance is very slow in Firefox 4 and much slower when compared to performance in Firefox 3.6.x After clicking a button within the Gmail interface (e.g. refresh, opening an email, sending an email etc.) there is a noticeable wait time in Firefox 4. In Firefox 3.6 and actually in any/all previous versions of Firefox, this was not the case. Using same machine for Firefox 4 as I was for Firefox 3.x. Dell Inspiron Laptop E6400, Dual core Intel 2 GHz, 3.5 GB RAM, 80 GB free HDD space, 32-bit Windows XP SP3. Gmail is set to use HTTPS always.

    Hi GoldMoon,
    (1)
    Refer to your last posting, seems that you've created index which wouldn't help your query performance.
    You need to create index from the field which supplied from your 'WHERE' condition. So if I follow your initial posting in this thread, your index should contains:
    - BUKRS (which will be compared with your company variable)
    - PRCTR (which will be compared with your s_prctr variable)
    - GJAHR (which will be compared with your s_year variable)
    - HKONT (which will be compared with your glcode value in your it_final[])
    - BUDAT (which will be compared with your s_budat range/select option.
    And to follow the BSIS field order, the above index field need to be arranged as follow
    - BUKRS
    - HKONT
    - GJAHR
    - BUDAT
    - PRCTR
    (2).
    Try not to use 'INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS' as it will increase table-memory overhead, but use 'INTO' and make sure the field list and internal table fields is in the same order.
    So, once the index has been created, and 'INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS' has been changed to 'INTO' your selection should looks like this:
    IF NOT it_final[] IS INITIAL.
    SELECT bukrs
              hkont
              augdt
              augbl
              zuonr
              gjahr
              belnr
              buzei
              budat
              werks
              kostl
              aufnr
              shkzg
              dmbtr
              prctr
        FROM bsis
         INTO TABLE it_bseg
          FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it_final
    WHERE bukrs eq company
        AND hkont eq it_final-glcode
        AND gjahr eq s_year
        AND budat in s_budat
        AND prctr eq s_prctr.
    ENDIF.
    Hope it helps

  • Firefox (3.6.10) is very sluggish/slow and hangs up

    All of a sudden Firefox (3.6.10) is very sluggish/slow and hangs up
    I've been using Firefox (very actively) for over a year now and all of a sudden (yesterday) it began to act very sluggishly. On sites I have always visited frequently it hangs up for periods of 15-90 seconds or more, won't scroll down, won't open hot links, slowly opens new tabs ...
    I rebooted my PC (multiple times), powered down my modem and router, ran a Norton disk optimization - essentially making sure it was not an outside factor effecting Firefox's performance. (Note: I am using a cable connection.)
    I then ran a side by side speed comparison with Internet explorer (on my 2nd monitor) going to the same web sites, and IE had no problems/hang-ups.
    FYI I only have a couple of add ins/extensions (Java, Microsoft Framework, Norton, No Squint, & RealPlayer) and none of those are new within the past few weeks at least.
    Any ideas on what could be causing this? How to fix? (As I much prefer Firefox to any Microsoft product.)
    Thanks.

    Yes, FF gets sluggish from time to time. Sorry but it's the fact! FF also cannot render some websites properly (especially v3.6.10). I'm a big fan of all Mozilla software but FF 3.6.10 makes me very disappointed.

    Hi sb00349044,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with your Firefox OS device. Can you please specify the device Model and Version?
    If your device is one of the Firefox OS Tablets from the contribution program, please be aware that those builds are still being improved and ironed out. If that is the case, please follow the guidelines for the contributor program to report issues with the device.

  • G5 Dual - DVD Reader has gone very very slow after Leopard

    After 1 Migrate install and 1 clean install, I notice that reinstalling apps is taking 4/5 times as long as they should it's as if my DVD Reader has gone very very slow. I thought at first it was the migration that had caused FCPS2 to reinstall slow.
    (Sony DVD RW AW-G170A 4 months old) on G5 Dual 2's)
    FCPS2 wanted 19-hrs to install, I waited 6 hrs and then gave up. Luckily or unluckily as the case may be I used the time install Leo on my other Macs.
    In the end I have installed Apps over the Firewire network connected to my other G5 Dual with the stock DVD drive, they are installing fast now.

    Some more info about my setup:
    *Simultaneous Dual band AEBS:*
    Radio Mode: 802.11n only (5 GHz) - 802.11b/g
    Radio Channel Selection: Manual - 161 (5GHz), 6(2.4GHz)
    *Airport Express:*
    Wireless mode: Extend a wireless network
    Allow wireless clients checked under the name of the network (same as for AEBS).
    Both are WPA/WPA2 Personal security. And both the routers were upgraded to 7.4.2 firmware this morning with the hope that it will help.
    *N Devices (both working fine):*
    Apple TV 40GB
    2009 Model Mac Mini upgraded to Snow Leopard - working perfectly.
    *G Devices:*
    Thinkpad running WinXP
    Dell Laptop running WinXP
    Acer Netbook running WinXP
    iPod Touch
    iPhone 3G
    Linksys webcam
    _All of the above are working fine_.
    +2008 model Mac mini -+ upgrade to Snow Leopard shows extremely slow wifi connection that it is unusable. It takes 20min to load apple homepage. When I boot from the clone of my Leopard lying on my external drive, it works perfectly.
    I compared the settings between all the tabs of Network-->Airport-->Advanced and they are identical between Snow Leopard and Leopard mode except that SL doesn't have the "Apple Talk" tab.
    Appreciate any help to debug this.

  • Since upgrading to 7.0.1; when opening a new tab, system is very, very slow - not sure where to look to fix the issues. Prior, I would have tabs pop open.

    I really do not have a lot more details to add to the question; in opening more than one tab; system is very, very slow either from trying to open when on-line or trying to open a link embedded in an email. Did not have an issue before the upgrade.

    Problem solved, I think, though not internally to Firefox and not for earlier Windows versions: Windows 7 preserves former version of files and folders. right click on the filen ame or foldername and select "restore previous version". At this juncture, I have copied the previous and current versions of the folder so I can try them out and if necessary move the sessionstore file from one to another.

  • AW6 is very very slow at opening PICT Docs

    I have noticed that AppleWorks 6 is very very slow at opening Apple PICT Documents. The memory of AW6 jumps up tp over 1GB and it takes several minutes (if at all) to open these files. Which happen to open fine in OS 9.
    Any idea what has happened to cause these files to not open or be very very slow? The original file is only 22KB.
    I have noticed some of my drawing programs (Canvas x) fails to open these as well. However, Canvas 5 (OS 9) works fine.
    I have a G4 with OS 10.4.9 and 986MB.
    Thanks

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • W/ this latest version, getting MANY "the connection was reset" pages, plus VERY VERY VERY slow loading. I'm running Windows 7 on a new Dell. What is up w/ that?

    w/ this latest version, getting MANY "the connection was reset" pages, plus VERY VERY VERY slow loading. I'm running Windows 7 on a new Dell. What is up w/ that?
    I don't know how else to phrase that. I'm a pretty good user, but after defragging, backing up, and getting rid of a bunch of files that "may" slow down performance of firefox, the fact is, "the connection was reset" comes up five or six times a day--AND the browser is going slow as molasses. I haven't had this much trouble since before I got my new dell.

    hello whatagem123, it is never a good idea to stick with outdated versions of firefox just for the sake of addons, as this will put the integrity of your system and your the personal data on it at risk - there are various [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html known security vulnerabilities (some of them highly critical)] that were fixed in later versions!
    so please [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] & [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ update your plugins] (your java plugin has security vulnerabilities that are actively and widely exploited on the web).
    afterwards i'd recommend resetting firefox - this will keep your bookmarks and passwords but will get rid of most other customizations. this might well fix both the issues you've described in your question...

  • Internet Browsing Very, Very Slow/Incomplete Page Loads

    _*The Computers:*_
    MacPro 2008 dual quad core and MacBookPro 2.66 mid 2009 both running OS 10.5.8.
    _*The Problem:*_
    The Mac Pro which is hard wired is very very slow and many times will time out before it can load a page or will only load part of the page (lots of little boxes with question marks in them or page loads part of the way and stops)and the wheel just keeps spinning. Sometimes I can hit the x and reload and it will work just fine. Sometimes, this does not help. The MacBook Pro which is wireless behaves the same way.
    _*The Internet Set Up:*_
    DSL line runs from wall to Surewest (ISP) router, then out to a 5 port Dlink switch. From the switch I run straight into the Mac Pro and to the Airport Express. The Airport Express is about 2.5 years old. It runs b/g while the MacBook Pro has draft N capability. I noticed that since I replaced my older MacBook Pro which was b/g, the new one shows a much stronger signal, which is why I can't understand why its slower.
    _*The Testing:*_
    I don't think its my ISP because when I run speedtest.net, I get what I always get, 3mb/s download and I have run that test many, many times over the last few days. The only change has been in the ping. It used to be consistently 16-17 ms and now it varies going as high as 24-26 ms. I have no clue if that is indicative of a problem. Data downloads, including iTunes work just fine.
    _*Potential Culprit:*_
    The only other change was that this weekend, I downloaded xmarks (formerly foxmarks) to unify and coordinate my bookmarks across both computers. I have since run the xmarks uninstaller on both machines and deleted the online account. However, it has not made any difference.
    _*Attempted Solutions:*_
    I already rebooted the Airport Express and changed the channel from auto to a higher number. No effect.
    _*Other Possible Solutions:*_
    I will reboot the ISP modem tonight.
    I am also considering uninstalling and reinstalling Safari with the thought that xmarks somehow screwed it up, but I also had the problem in Firefox in which I did not install xmarks. If I pull the Safari bookmark.plst file before I uninstall Safari, I should be able to just drop it in to the fresh install and keep my bookmarks.
    Someone suggested that I switch to Open DNS. This is beyond my area of expertise so to speak, so I am a little afraid to mess with it. If one of you wouldn't mind giving me a more complete explanation and instructions, I would appreciate it.
    Any other thoughts, advice or things to try? Thanks for the assistance.

    Greetings,
    Deleting and then reinstalling Safari is not a solution, so I would strongly advise against it. It's very rare that the application you're having a problem with using is the actual problem; rather, it's something the program relies on that is causing the problem. Instead, try this:
    Quit Safari if it's running and open System Preferences>Network>Advanced.
    In the DNS Server window, make sure IPv6 is turned off, and enter these two DNS servers to replace the ones you currently have (if any):
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    click Apply Now and quit System Preferences.
    Next, do these things in order:
    1. Go to Home/Library/Cookies and delete the Cookies.plist file.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Web Page Previews and delete the contents of that folder.
    4. If you don't want to use the Top Sites feature, open Terminal and paste in this command:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSnapshotsUpdatePolicy -int 2
    5. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    6. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    7. Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete these files (if you have them):
    Downloads.plist
    History.plist
    Form Values
    LastSession.plist
    WebpageIcons.db
    Then Repair Disk Permisions, restart Safari and see if the speed is improved.

  • Since the latest version was downloaded to my pc, the games i play on facebook are VERY VERY SLOW, how do i speed it up?

    since the latest version of firefox was downloaded to my pc, ALL the games I like to play on FaceBook are VERY VERY slow.
    it didnt do this before the download. how can i fix this so it is like it was before?

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Exchange 2013 CU5 , Exchange Power Shell very very very slow reasponse when using get command.

    Exchange 2013 CU5 , Exchange Power Shell very very very slow reasponse when using get command.
    First my organize has Exchange on 2 site like
    site A (internet facing) : 2CAS 2 MB all are Services pack1
    site B (DR Site , no user active on this site) : 2CAS 2MB all are Services pack 1
    so today I upgrade Exchange 2013 from SP1 to CU5 start on "site B" and I found this issue and the details is....
    When I open EMS on any CU5 for query something (like get-mailboxdatabasecopystatus) the response return very slow and some query will not return at all (like get-owavirtualdirectory).
    But If I using EMS on SP1. Everything is ok then I try to use EMS on SP1 connect to CU5 and try to query something. the result is
    some query command cannot return for any result that are server on siteB (just some query command)
    Problem
    EMS on CU5 return very slow result.
    EMS on SP1 still ok.
    Does anyone face this problem before for CU5??? Please help me figure this out. Thank you
    reply from Social.technet

    Hi,
    Have you used the above cmdlets to check your Exchange server health?
    "all other command that I ran on EMS didn't logged on event viewer.", my environment is the same with you. I use Exchange 2013, only errors will be displayed in MSExchange Management. Actually, it is not related to slow EMS response.
    Hope it helps.

    Hi erastyle,
    Actually the Licensing information for the package is missing hence it is not launching any applications. You need to Reserialize the products using APTEE which you can find it on the Machine where you have created the package. If you dont have the access to that Machine then please download and install Creative Cloud Packager and it will download APTEE in the below mentioned location.

  • My macbook pro is running very slow and very very hot

    hi everyone I have a 13 inch mid 2012 MacBook pro,
    it is running very very slow and extremely hot, I downloaded a program called smc fan control and it is reading the internal temperature of my computer as 80 degrees Celsius. I was looking on the forums and saw that I should run an apple hardware test. which I have done and it is coming up with Error 4/MOT/4/40000002: EXHAUST-2003
    what does this mean? is it something to do with my fan?
    also there is a very strange clicking noise when I lift the mac up or if its on its side and sometimes it just randomly freezes,  the computer does not respond and then it restarts.
    what do I do?
    please help!

    " the fan didn't seem congested with dust, at least not enough to cause any malfunction."
    The lint and crap builds up in the heat exchanger radiator. It's the grilled thing at the output of the fan.
    https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Unibody+Mid+2012+Fan+Replacemen t/10367
    Look at step 6. It's that grilled thing at the top of the fan. If you remove the fan that radiator is probably clogged with lint. Brush it all away and if possible blow out the fan with compressed air. Make sure the fan turns freely and doesn't feel stiff.

    This isn't a MBP radiator but the problem will look like this.

    I am very disappointed in Mozilla Firefox latest update. Is your policy to support hackers by allowing the tab bar to be permanently on.
