I keep getting Script Unresponsive error. Firefox is completely unusable now. I am currently typing this on Chrome. Please help!

I am a loyal user of Firefox, having been using it since Firefox 3, but if this problem continues I am going to delete Firefox and move on to other pastures. When asked if this a new question that has been answered already, I lied and said yes it was a new question. I have seen multiples of this same question and the answers have all been the same. The thing is though, I open Firefox and then I try to do anything and it gives me the unresponsive script and freezes up!
It started as a simple irritant yesterday and has progressed to a full out shutdown of Firefox. I can't do anything with it, including solve the flipping problem! I think the only reason I will continue to try to use this useless piece of FAIL is because it has my bookmarks on it and it will be an extreme pain to find them all again and remark them on a different browser... On that note does anyone have any recommendations for a good browser that is NOT Internet Explorer?

After some Windows updates, my Firefox suddenly was crippled with hangs that eventually culminated in the script stop/continue dialog. The only effective workaround was to disable Flash, or less drastically, to disable its protected mode feature. The following pages provide different ways to do that:
* Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
* Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209

I upgraded my old iphone 4s to an iPhone 6+ last Sunday (12/28). I've been trying to restore my settings and whatnot thru the icloud restore, and have been unsuccessful. The Wi-Fi connection isn't the problem, I'm not sure what is. The error message I keep getting is: "couldn't connect to icloud", it's been 5 days!! How do I fix this?

Hi I would Restore New iPhone back to Factory Settings After Restore use same Apple ID & you will get all your Apps &Data back. This will get rid of any bugs. Cheers Brian

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Had my iphone 4 stolen and now have iphone 3g but it wont restore and keeps coming up with error 1015! My laptop has the latest updated version of Itunes? Please help

I had my iphone 4 stolen and have been lent an iphone 3G, I have tried to restore the phone but its coming up with error 1015 and wont restore. I have the current Itunes software on my computer and there are no further updates to be done. Please help

Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state. Very rarely this error is caused by a hardware issue and requires service.

HT2513 I keep getting duplicate Birthday entries in Ical with only one date/entry in the Contacts App. Please help?

I need help deleting one of the duplicate birthdays in Ical on my Macbook Pro?
Sam

What I found was that you have to go all or nothing. I don't have any personal iDevices (just an iPad through work) so the simple solution was to turn off Contact syncing for iCloud. I'm guessing you'll need to remove all your local contacts or, the more tedious solution, remove the birthdays from all the local contacts. As you surmised, iCal seems to use the whole address book, and can't be just a subset of contacts.

Receiving error message: Your Apple TV is not authorized to play this content. Please help

I'm receiving an error message on my Apple TV. I downloaded a movie to my MAC, the Mac and the Apple TV were in sync. My Apple TV shows that the movie is "unwatched" in my movie selection area. When I try to play the movie I am receiving the message "YOUR APPLE TV IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PLAY THIS CONTENT". Has anyone else every had this issue or know how to resolve the problem?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it's the Apple TV 1 you have: This problem seems to have started around October 28, it appears to affect content purchased only on other devices but played on the Apple TV 1.
There have been other workarounds suggested from time to time, but I have found the simplest solution is to purchase something on the Apple TV 1 directly (There may be free content in some locations and this appears to work just as well).
Once the content has been purchased, it will not only play as normal, but will also allow all other content purchased on other devices after October 28 to play as well.
Some have reported that it's necessary to restart the Apple TV before and/or after purchase, but I found it worked without.

I keep getting a popup error message in Ical "server does not recognize name/password

I keep getting a popup error message in Ical "server does not recognize name/password" This started after they did the change to Icloud and extended our subcriptions.
Tricia

I guess that the server name is incorrect, then.
Did it ever work?
Delete the account, reboot the phone, then add it back and be sure you choose Yahoo as the mail server type. Everthing should then fill in automatically except your user name and password.

Firefox has crashed numerous times on me tonight, and I keep getting an unresponsive script error (Script: chrome://devany/content/main.js:254) regardless of what website I'm on. NoScript will not block this script, and it's popping up with an increasing and alarming frequency. It's completely crippled my Firefox, and getting the a large enough window between unresponsive script warnings to get the Troubleshooting Information from Firefox took me a good 20 minutes. It's a very persistent script. I've already re-installed Firefox and restarted my computer, and scanned for viruses/malware. I'm on a Mac, if it makes a difference.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Tonight. I can't say what site I was on, though I first noticed it on DeviantArt and thought it was their new layout producing problems. ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_8; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7

yay, I had this same issue, and I too browsed deviantArt and also have got Deviantanywhere add-on installed. : D
I'm so glad that You've found a solution and shared it with us.
I was really getting worried that I'd done something to get malware installed on my 'puter. *Phew* !!
I'm going to disable DeviantAnywhere after I post this and hopefully this will be fixed for me too!
I actually hadn't kept my firefox up to date. but.. *shh...*
I updated it and after I did, it told me that there was a script running that was not responding. : )
yay for FireFox~

I dont have any Add-ons with my FireFox. After upgrade to the latest version 26.0 I'm keep getting Script error "chrome://global/content/binding/popup.xml:580"

Quite frequently I'm keep getting the error like "Script is not responding....I dont have any Add-ons with my FireFox. After upgrade to the latest version 26.0 I'm keep getting Script error "chrome://global/content/binding/popup.xml:580" Stop or Continue Script.
Currently I don't have any Add-Ons installed in my FireFox, so I can suspect any Add-ons.
I'm facing this issue only after the upgrade to 26.0 recently.

I keep getting script errors when accessing Amazon Seller merchant pages. I get the following A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. Script

I keep getting script errors when accessing Amazon Seller merchant pages. I get the following A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. Script: chrome://spautofill/content/spOverlay.js:150, I also get js210 as well. I have cleared all cookies and history and unistalled Firefaox and reinstalled. Been thru my AVS and set the site as trusted in every possible place. Still get the problem. Do not get it with IE on same PC.
== URL of affected sites ==
https://sellercentral.amazon.co.uk

Same problem but with a different vendor site:
https://www.webvitamins.com/myfavorites.aspx
Not only does the page hang, but the other tabs also hang.
I contacted the vendor and their reply was "we were told that this looks like a script that is used by "Sticky Password", third-party software that must have been installed on your browser. However, our website did not install it and does not have anything to do with it." As far as I can tell, "Sticky Password" is not installed on my Firefox.
Same problem as above occurs, but with IE 8.0.6001.18702. Therefore, it is not unique to Firefox.
CAUSE DETERMINED: Have determined that this problem only occurs when Kaspersky Password Manager is installed. In Firefox, if the "Password Manager Autofill Engine" add-on is disabled, the problem goes away.

Keep getting script errors when on facebook is there a fix for this

Downloaded current version of firefox browser keep get script errors is there a fix for this..???

What kind of script errors do you see?
Do you see them in a pop-up (alert) window?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I'm getting the following error firefox/components/blocklistservice.js:648

when i open a firefox browser in windows xp i'm getting the following error
firefox/components/blocklistservice.js:648
it is asking me to stop the script or continue. why i'm getting this problem. please help me.

That is an indication of an incompatible add-on. I believe that is one of the Zone Alarm add-ons, possibly the Zone Alarm Forcefield.
You will need to contact Zone Alarm to see if they have an update for Firefox 4.
