Is it normal for Firefox to have to load basically everytime it opens?

I just need to know if there is something wrong with my phone or firefox installation on my HTC EVO that it has to load every time it opens. The default EVO browser seems to stay open and is much quicker start up and I just love firefox and hope it can do the same.

This happens because Firefox uses more memory (RAM) than the default browser, and Android automatically closes apps in the background when their memory is needed for other activities. We're working on making Firefox use less memory so it will stay open longer, and also on making it start faster.

  • Using the HTML Validator for Firefox, I have found that every page I open has errors, not just the ones I have designed; why?

    Even using it on this page there are 5 errors geneated.
    I am using HTML Tidy.
    Is there something wrong? Am I using it incorrectly?

    I checked and agree this page does not pass validation

    That validator is an official w3.org validator

    I suppose it could be expected these pages would pass validation. I will mark this for escalation lets see what HelpDesk's observations are on that.
    I also note that ''html tidy'' appears to be a utility originating from w3.org

  • Can' open my Yahoo mail after Nightly updated, have to load basic mail, will open in Internet Explorer

    It will not open any of my mail unless I revert to basic mail worked fine til last Nightly update.

    You need to go back to the 5/27 Nightly build. There was a change in the code and broke Yahoo. Nightly builds can break '''anything''' at '''anytime'''. For anyone using the Nightly builds, this is common knowledge.
    Anyway, go back to the 5/27 nightly and stay there until this is fixed:

    You can watch this bug if you want:

    But if something breaks in nightly again, please don't be surprised. Just go back to the previous day's nightly.

    Is it normal for someone to have general diffuculty charging an ipad?  I see the "not charging" message even when I am using the charger and cord that came in the original box, plugged into a wall socket directly.  It is normal for me to plug it in overnight and to see no charge whatsoever the next day.  I have never had so much trouble using a friggin charger in my life.  It just seems to be exceedingly finicky.  What am I missing?

    Charging your iPad should not be problematic. It should be an easy thing to do using the charger provided with your iPad connected to a known good wall outlet.
    The charging problem you are experiencing is most like caused by:
    1. A faulty charger
    2. A faulty cable
    3. A bad wall outlet
    4. A problem in the iPad.
    The first three of these are easiest to eliminate. Try a for ends charger and cable. Make absolutely sure your outlet is good. Try other outlets.
    If the charger, cable and outlet a proven to be good then the problem lies in the iPad.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • I have downloaded itunes, however everytime I open it up deos not detect my internet connection even though it is running?

    I have downloaded itunes, however everytime I open it up deos not detect my internet connection even though it is running.  I can goto other sites when I open up explorer, but itunes just will not connect.  Could someone assist?  I have windows 7.

    Set it up with SMB compliant names.. that means, short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Set a different name for 2.4ghz and 5ghz..
    Set security to WPA2 personal with pure alphanumeric password.. 10-20 characters is usually plenty.
    Set wireless channel for 2.4ghz to manual and try channels 11, 6, 1 in that order.

  • Is it normal for Firefox Mobile to refresh the Android home screen?

    Firefox always causes my Android home screen to refresh every time I close out of it. Why does this happen is it normal?
    Note: I have an HTC Merge.
    this happens even with a fresh install of FF with no add on's.

    Yes, It'll be charged to your Google account. There's no guarantee of anything. It works for my HTC EVO 4G, that's all I can tell you. You should read the reviews of this app in Play Store before you go ahead and buy it. Of course, you'll have to install as an add-on in Dolphin HD as well.

  • Am getting message saying something is trying to upload unsecure update for Firefox. Have scanned system with Avast but no reported problems

    During a browsing session looking for spares for garden machinery I got a message saying something was trying to upload an unsecure update to Firefox. Have scanned system with Avast and a couple of other malware programs but have no reported threats. As far as I am aware my browser is fully up to date.

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.<br />
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.<br />

    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Firefox keeps acting like it crashed everytime I open it.

    Every time I start my computer & open Firefox, instead of pulling up my home page, it acts as if it just crashed and brings up the page that shows it crashed/is trying to re-open my previously opened tabs. (Page displays: "Well, this is embarrassing. Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page." Then it lists all the tabs I had opened the last time I had my computer on). I have deleted Firefox & downloaded a previous version, and that corrected the problem for a few days. Now the same problem is back. How do I fix this?

    A possible cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.
    Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.
    If this still doesn't work properly then you can consider to disable crash recovery, but note that you will lose open tabs in case a real crash occurs.

Actually, my phone is still in Warranty, that's why I'm pretty sure that I don't have to pay for the services that will be perform. But still I'm into looking other solution to prevent bringing my phone to Nokia Care.
    First, I had already an experience with the Nokia Care Center when I have repair my 1st N96 which took a month but they failed to repair, thus my service provider, Smart Communications, just replace the device with a new one.

  • Is it normal to get logged out of sync after the browser is closed? In other words I have relog into it everytime I open up Firefox.

    After I have created an account, set everything up, and close the browser, next time I open up firefox, it says set up sync, instead of sync. Then I have to set up sync> I already have and account>I don't have the device with me> etc.

  • Trying to upgrade to V.8, cannot open Firefox. Have uninstalled, loaded 8 again then 7 , 9 and finally 6. The program will not run. Operating Windows 7. When I try to uninstall, I am asked to 'close Firefox' but it isn't open ( Task Manager confirms).

    Firefox 8 won't open. The Windows 'wheel' which indicates a program is opening spins for about 5 seconds and then stops and nothing happens. I have spent several hours uninstalling and then loading different versions but still the same thing happens. I frequently switch off and restart the computer but nothing happens. I have changed the Windows firewall to allow Firefox, again nothing happens.

    In the task manager, are you looking at Processes? That is where you find Firefox listed when you see no interface, not in Applications.
    This page might have some useful information about that problem.
