How can I stop my browser crashing all the time?

My browser shuts down frequently for some unknown reason. Once it crashes at a particular website, or place on a website, I can almost never access that point again, the browser will close every time I try to go there.
I've been using Firefox, but I've tried other browsers, and it happens with all of them. I was getting the message box, "Browser closed unexpectedly", with the option to restore the session or start a new one. I had to download an upgrade, to the newest Firefox, in order to use Turbotax. Now the message is "We're sorry, Firefox crashed unexpectedly", with options to start over or restore session.
If I restore the session, it just crashes again if I try to return to the point I was attempting to access.
There was another person who posted about this same problem, and was advised to use the Disk Utility to repair the disk. I followed the directions, did the disk repair, etc., but it's still closing unexpectedly. It doesn't seem to be happening as often, but I can't access Turbotax now. It closes every time, while I'm waiting for the site to create a secure connection.
I'm on dial-up, too. I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I hope not, as that's my only option at this time. I'm in an area that has frequent power outages, so I shut my machine down whenever I'm not using it. I have been caught by surprise a few times, and the power has gone off while I was using the computer. I don't know if that could have caused this problem to develop.
Anybody know why this happens, or more importantly, how I can fix it?

Thanks, but no, it doesn't help. That's basically trouble-shooting Safari. The problem is with my system, I'm not using Safari, though I've tried it. I tried Safari, Firefox, Opera, and Seamonkey, they all do the same thing, at exactly the same websites.
I know I need to update. I'm on dial-up and haven't been able to update. I don't have someplace or somebody I can go to to access via high-speed. There are no internet cafes around here. There are no Apple stores around here. You can't get an update disk from Apple, which seems really ridiculous to me, but if you don't have high speed access, they don't really seem to care about doing anything whatsoever to help you out.
I realize there are not a lot of us out in the sticks, but we do exist, there really are still places without all the bells and whistles.
Thanks anyway, I'm working on finding out how I might be able to score an update. If can get that, if it still boots me out, I'll re-post.
My thanks to all who responded. I appreciate your time.

Firefox Mobile 18a1 crashes all the time

I have been testing Nightly builds of Firefox Mobile for Android for some time now. Recently (after Ion landed), the browser crashes all the time. I can't even get into about:config or about:crashes long enough to get any useful information or try anything. Is there a way to put the browser in Safe Mode? Any other ideas?

Hey,
Yes, this is known. We've got a couple bug reports on file and have been investigating it this week. See bugs: http://bugzil.la/791781, http://bugzil.la/792342, http://bugzil.la/790139.
The crash you describe sounds like http://bugzil.la/790139 as I came across this too yesterday.
Hopefully we'll see some fixes soon.

Flash player crashes all the time

Hey there
I was interested in chatroulette.com so i visited the site, but when i am connecting to the site my browser crashes all the time. Firefox says something about doing illegal operations with shockwave flash and chrome says that the flash player is causing the browser to crash. I've uninstalld and installd the flash player like a dozen times but it still keeps crashing.
Please, help me.
What do i need to do?

I am running Windows XP and as far as I know no service packs. My firewall is McAfee Firewall Plus. Etrust EZ antivirus is my antivirus program.
In my C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash folder there are 8 files:
Flash10e.ocx
flashplayer.xpt
Flashutil10e
install
NPSWF32.dll
NPSWF32_FlashUtil
uninstall_activeX
uninstall_plugin
I cannot find the addons pages but since Firefox tells me Flash operates illegal actions i think it is enabled. I prefer Firefox.

How can i stop icloud from downloading all my photos onto my iphone 4s each time I sync. Then, how do I delete them from my phone, there are no delete options. I'm slowly going crazy.

Hi iprover,
Let me first say that I am NO EXPERT with anything Apple and really have only started looking into this iCloud stuff a few hours ago because I'm trying to help my mom free up some space on her iCloud. But anyway, here's what I'm learning and what I THINK might be happening to you.
Also, if any Apple support people (do they browse the forums to dish out helpful hints?) or people who probably know infinitely more than me about this stuff, please do chime in and confirm / correct my statements!
This is what I gather.
iCloud for Windows is set up with a local folder (let's call it "C:\Users\Administrator\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream") where iCloud will store photos uploaded to the Photo Stream. This will allow you to view your Photo Stream photos on your PC.
This does not mean that this is a PC backup of your Photo Stream photos, but just a way to view your Photo Stream from your PC. That being said, the general Photo Stream rules apply: 1. No videos are on the photo-stream, and 2. Photos on the Photo Stream will be removed after ~30 days and/or after hitting the Photo Stream limit of 1000 photos.
My guess is that the iCloud Windows App will delete photos from the local folder that are older than ~30 days and/or delete all but the most recent 1000 items if the 1000-item limit is reached.
That is a scary thought! I really hope you did not lose all your pictures, but my guess is that the iCloud local folder is NOT meant for backup but instead is the iCloud Windows App's sandbox for updating and managing Photo Stream photos.
All that being said, I'd say it's important to back up your photos in a separate folder not related to the iCloud local folder.

Since this is an Outlook question, you should ask over on the Microsoft Office for Mac forums.

How to make this work selecting advanced record set dreamweaver complains and crashes all the time

Hi There
I have met a person who does php and sql work but not with dreamweaver. The code I have works but dreamweaver shows me an error with my record sets and it crash all the time.
<?php require_once('../Connections/datexdatabase.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
    $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
return $theValue;
if($_GET['pageID']==''){
    $pageId = 1;
}else{
    $pageId = $_GET['pageID'];
mysql_select_db($database_datexdatabase, $datexdatabase);
$query_rsIndex = "SELECT pages.title, pages.meta_keywords, pages.meta_description, content.header, content.`description`
FROM pages INNER JOIN content ON pages.id = content.page_id WHERE pages.id = ".$pageId." ORDER BY content.order";
$rsIndex = mysql_query($query_rsIndex, $datexdatabase) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsIndex = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsIndex);
$totalRows_rsIndex = mysql_num_rows($rsIndex);
?>
<?php do { ?>
        <?php if($row_rsIndex['header'] != 'Introduction'){ ?>
        <b><?php echo $row_rsIndex['header']; ?></b>
        <?php } ?>
        <p><?php echo$row_rsIndex['description']; ?></p>
        <?php } while ($row_rsIndex = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsIndex)); ?>
<?php
mysql_free_result($rsIndex);
?>
I am able to join the tables in the advanced recordset but i am getting confused with "" FROM pages INNER JOIN content ON pages.id = content.page_id WHERE pages.id = ".$pageId." ORDER BY content.order";"
mysql_select_db($database_datexdatabase, $datexdatabase);
$query_rsIndex = "SELECT pages.title, pages.meta_keywords, pages.meta_description, content.header, content.`description`
FROM pages INNER JOIN content ON pages.id = content.page_id WHERE pages.id = ".$pageId." ORDER BY content.order";
My question is how can I use dreamweaver with the advanced recordset with the pageID without dreamweaver crashing 20 times a day

Do you get any errors in Dreamweaver when it crashes?
What version?
What OS?

Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

Firefox 9.0.1 crashes all the time, I just can't use it anymore. Would it be possible to propose the verion 8 for download ? Thanks

Hi there,
Firefox has been updated on my computer on the 8th of Jan. 2012. It started crashing yesterday, until I almost could not open any site at all. It seems to crash when there are some videos. For example, I watch TV on Zattoo.com, when I go on this site, Firefox crashes all the time especially when I open other windows.
Now I would like to go back to the version 8, but I can not find this version for download. Where could I find it, or could you propose it on your web site ?
Many thanks !

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
