If the "unresponsive script" dialog box appears while another dialog box (e.g. a "Save As" box), the two dialog boxes lock each other out

FF 7.0.1 on MacOSX 10.6.8 (not this machine!)
While doing a "Save As", and while the "Save As" dialog box is showing, a second dialog box "unresponsive script" shows up. I can't deal with the "unresponsive script" box as it doesn't have focus, and I can't complete the "Save As" operation because its script has become unresponsive. I end up having to Force-Quit Firefox via the Activity Monitor.
Any less brutal suggestions?

figured it out:
- power off mac and turn back on while holding down Command + R (dont do it on an external keyboard just to be safe)
- choose the re-install Lion option (I'm sure there is another way to re-install Lion, this is just the way I did it, not saying its the best or only method)
- DO NOT INSTALL MACBOOK (Mid 2012) Software Update 1.0 - THIS SCREWS ADOBE UP!

  • FF 7.0.1 on Mac OSX 10.6.8: I sometimes get the "unresponsive script" dialog box in the top left corner of the screen, so far out that I can see only the bottom right corner of the dialog box. Is there any way of re-centring it?

    FF 7.0.1 on MacOSX 10.6.8 (not this machine!): I sometimes get the "unresponsive script" dialog box jammed into the top left corner of the screen so that only a quarter of it is visible.
    Is there a way of re-centring the dialog box (in particular, when its top edge is off the screen)?
    Thanks!

    There is no way to preserve view preferences.Just remember or annotate the zoom % used in the package.
    You may want to open an MS Connect item asking to add such a feature.
    I can tell you it may not be implemented because a package may be opened on different size monitors.

  • I'm constantly getting the "unresponsive script" warning, what can I do to prevent or resolve the issue?

    == Issue
    ==
    I have another kind of problem with Firefox
    == Description
    ==
    Every time I open a site I get the "unresponsive script" warning. Then randomly throughout my web surfing. It's a constant occurrence. In fact, I've yet to go a single session without receiving a warning. For several days I was logging each message by using print screen, then saving under paint. If these are required to rectify this issue, I'd gladly send them.

  • Firefox came up with the unresponsive script message and now if frozen?

    Firefox came up with the unresponsive script message. I clicked 'stop script' but now Firefox has frozen and is not responding to anything I do. I cannot click on anything. It will not let me close it down, uninstall it or shut down my computer.

    Upgraded to FF 33 and installed English dictionary. Now FF is hanging frequently in www.morningstar.com and I believe elsewhere with the following:
    Warning: Unresponsive Script
    Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js.17006
    I do NOT understand the "chrome" reference.
    This is quite annoying. I upgraded to FF 33 in order to try to get back spell checking in Morningstar posts which I lost back at FF 24, as I recall, but it did NOT solve the problem. Now I have this mess.

  • Lately, when I get the "Unresponsive Script" message, Neither the cancel nor the complete script button will work and Firefox hangs so I have to Force Quit Firefox. What is wrong?

    Here is the link below the message about the unresponsive script:
    Script: chrome://browser/content/tabbrowser.xml:554
    Neither of the buttons will work "Stop Script" or "Continue" and since Firefox is frozen or just hanging, I have to Force Quit. Today I was trying to print off a confirmation for a convention and every time I was ready to print, the Unresponsive Script would show up and freeze the printing too. After 4 times, I finally made a Grab Shot of it to print.

    ive also repaired disk permissions using disk utility and disk warrior.

    hedger,
    How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
    Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

    To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

    How do I turn off the alt scroll zoom? 
    When I'm in Adobe photoshop and illustrator using the pen tool, alt is utilized for another short cut.  I would like to use the alt command for the pen tool instead of zooming into the screen.

    I tend to select things from left to right and every time I am moving in a downward right diagonal motion during lasso selection I am missing a clear view and I am tending to have a more sloppy selection.  All this does is slow me down since I need to go back and hit those areas again.  The big arrowhead just get's in the way.  The original lasso tool with the thin line and small active point at it's lower left was far better for me.
    I don't like turning the cursors to precise because I like to see the active tool icon where my cursor is and as the icon changes as I hold modifier keys down.  If I am forced to get comfortable with using pricise cursors I guess I will, but man, I've never had to do this in my 15 years of photoshop use...
    I would absolutely LOVE to find a way to get the old lasso icon -- without the arrowhead above it.
    Is there any chance this option could be inlcuded in cursor preferences?  I'd give much thanks, Adobe.
