How to stop my pages from freezing on Firefox?

I noticed I've been having a lot of crashes and my pages keep freezing when I use Firefox. This started with the recent Firefox updates...I have version 3.6.7 right now. Sometimes a message pops up about some problem with plugin...I've also recently downloaded the latest Flash plugin but a few times, it says I need to reinstall it.
I also cannot export Favorites from Firefox to Internet Explorer 8 because it says there are problems when I tried it.

  • How to stop my page from scrolling vertically

    I currently have my page configured so that the header, footer, and links on the left hand side are all framed and positioned absolutely. This allows me to just have the content in the center of my page scroll.
    It works wonderfully, however on some pages (such as one where I have a photo gallery), the page will scroll past the gallery, and either appears very long, or the content stops, and you can see the background of the page. It's difficult to explain, so I have included photos to demonstrate. I would simply like to prevent my page from scrolling PAST the content (gallery in this case) and onto the excess space.
    Even if I extend the min-length or max-length value of the page, it only makes the white area even longer so it scrolls even further down the screen. Any suggestions would be apprecaited, and I can include the .css and html if necessary as well.
    Regards,
    -Dave

    I'm sorry Nancy, I'm not exactly sure how to do that.
    You can view my page at http://www.dvionline.com
    but obviously you can't see the .css in there.
    If it makes it anymore clear, I have posted it here:

  • How to stop a page from loading?

    Does anyone know if there's a way to stop a webpage from loading (i.e. before it finishes)..? This page, for example:
    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/gameflash/2011/06/04/36460_recap.h tml
    When I click on the "X" (or type Cmd+period) i want to cease ALL communication with whatever website is in the address bar. I don't want periodic updates, i dont' want animated ads to finish loading, i don't want my screen rearranged.... nothing. I WANT TO TERMINATE ALL CONTACT WITH THAT WEBSITE until such time that i might click on "reload".  And i should be able to do this without having to yank out my ethernet cable.
    This may be a more general problem that applies to Firefox as well. 

    Huh, i didn't realize the escape key did something different than Cmd+period. It seems to work but i'll have to try it with some of the peskier websites.... Thanks.

  • How to stop my iPad from freezing when sending photos?

    My iPad is frozen. 
    This is the third time it's has happened in four days. The first two times were accidents; the third time was induced.
    What happens is when I attach three images from iPhoto to an email and hit send,  Mail freezes.
    The only way I've discovered to get out of this is to hold the Home button and the Off button until it re-starts and tells you to plug it back into another computer and re-load everything.
    I have a 1 on 1 at the Apple Store in the AM but wondered if anyone else had similar experience, and if so how did you fix the problem?
    I bought the iPad as a light weight alternative to take to Italy this summer.  I can't have this happen there, for I'll have no way to re-load everything because I'll only have the 'dead' iPad.
    thanks,
    Hal

  • How do I transfer Pages from one user account to another

    How do you transfer Pages from one user account to another on the same Mac?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you haven't modified anything, Pages is installed on /Applications. All users have access to this folder, identified as "Applications" on the Finder sidebar, so you don't have to move anything, because Pages will work on all your users.
    If you have installed Pages on ~/Applications (being ~ your user folder), then you have to move Pages to /Applications. After doing this, you will be able to access to Pages on all users

    the getAppletContext() method of the Applet class will get you an AppletContext, with which you can call the ShowDocument(URL url) or ShowDocument(URL url, String target) method...
    check it out at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/applet/AppletContext.html

    How to block a page (from a business job searching website) from appearing on my screen without me searching for it?

    Look under:
    System preferences > Network > WiFi > ( Advanced ) > DNS
    System Preferences > Network > Ethernet > ( Advanced ) > DNS
    There should be two or more IP addresses there.
    Those addresses should be EXACTLY the ones your current ISP provided when you signed up for service. They do not start with 85 or 86 -- those are hacker sites.
    If you are in the US, you could also use OpenDNS:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220

    You don't. The Mac version of Pages works on Macs - not on iPad.

  • How to stop Time Machine from backing up Temp Files?

    Hi folks!
    I am trying to find out how to stop Time Machine from constantly backing up 'useless' temporary files accumulated from web browsing? Although I don't change or add large files to my HD, Time Machine backs up hundreds of MBs every hour. Those file amounts make sense when I consider that I browse a lot to YouTube, SoundCloud, etc to watch videos or listen to music - I just don't want them to be backed up.
    Under Time Machine Options I already excluded the following items from backups:
    ~/Library/Caches
    /Library/Caches
    ~/Downloads
    But even though I did this weeks ago, Time Machine stills finds large files to be backed up every hour and my only guess is that I am still missing a location where either Safari or Firefox - the two web browsers I use - store temporary files.
    Can you help?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Are you sure you need that? There are no viruses that run on OSX. None. Zip. Zero.
    If you're running Windoze on your Mac, that's the same as running it on a PC, so it needs all the same anti-everything stuff you'd use on a PC.
    There is some "malware," such as Trojans, for Macs, though. But (unlike viruses that can get onto your system without your knowledge), you must approve their installation (via your Admin password) and/or operation (via the "This application was downloaded from the internet ..." prompt).
    Appropriately enough, some of these Trojans are included in pirated versions of Apple software, such as iWork!
    For the gory details, see Thomas Reed's [Mac Virus Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/macvirus].
    Thanks a lot again!
    You're quite welcome, and thanks for posting back.

  • How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

    I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
    while a dialog is showing.
    When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
    I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

    If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
    Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
    if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
    JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
    JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
    ... code here ...
    As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

    How  to stop  the users from changing User Profile

    Hai,
    It is not possible to restrict SU3 to display, because it has only S_TCODE has the authorization object.
    If you really want to restrict users from changing their profile you have to remove the SU3 access and give SU1 or SU2 which gives access only to Personnel details and Parameters.
    Hope this helps.
