Keeps coming up with not responing how can I fix this

Every time I open up my web browser I get " not responding" and have to wait. I did a refresh for firefox but that did not help. Was hoping the update would have cured that problem but it did not. This has been going on for quite some time and it is getting annoying.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

    If the sum of all your sales taxes equals less than 7.3%, then you have enough.

    Not a nice answer!
    Posting "Check the 'More like this'" area and not simply providing the answer is a great way to make these groups worthless.
    You're ignoring context.  On the old Apple Discussion Groups I never posted replies like that, instead giving people relatively detailed answers.  The new Apple Support Communities made things worse by introducing certain inefficiencies.  Then came Lion.  The flood of messages that came with Lion required a painful choice for any of the people who had been helping here: (1) Give quality responses to a few questions and ignore the rest.  (2) When applicable, give a brief answer such as the one that you found objectionable.  (3) Give up all the other normal activities of life and spend full time trying to answer questions here.
    People who needed help with Lion problems seemed to have trouble discovering existing message threads that described how to solve their problems.  I never posted the suggestion of "Check the 'More like this' area" without verifying that the help that the poster needed could be found there.  Even doing that, what I posted saved me time that I could use to help someone else.
    The people helping here are all volunteers.  None of them is being paid for the time they spend here.  They all have a life outside of Apple Support Communities.  It's arrogant of you to demand that people helping here spend more time than they already do.

    Hello there, graciecloyd.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers a few steps to try when an application is not functioning as expected:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
    Learn more about troubleshooting apps.
    On Step 2, close all applicaitons that are open. On Step 3, if the restart doesn't help resolve the issue, you may also want to try the Reset step in that article as well.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • I have a problem with my ipad. I can make online documentation before but when I updated my iOS, I can't longer make notes. How can I fix this problem?

    I have a problem with my ipad. Before I can make online documentation but when I updated my iOS, I can no longer make notes. How can I fix this?

    What does "online documentation" mean exactly?  Are you using the Notes app to try to create notes in iCloud, for example?
    If so, that should still work in iOS 7.1.
    If not, please tell us specific symptoms of what is (or is not) happening.

  • TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • Speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default.

    speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default. I also have no voice with Safari or any other apps including music!

    If your speaker is broken, then you may need to get a repair done.
    Are you unable to hear anything at all, or is it just one speaker in particular?
    If it is just one speaker, where's it located?

  • Updated my IOS 7 now some of my games are not work, how can I fix this problem?

    I have updated my Ipad to the IOS 7 and now some of my games/apps are not working, how can i fix this or revert back to what I had before?

    I'm afraid you'll have to wait until both Apple and the makers of your games/apps upgrade to new versions.
    Apparently there are still some issues with iOS7 that are being dealt with and the same with some apps.
    As for going back, I don't think you will be able to get this information from these forums...

  • My iTunes was working fine, all my CDs would import fully and quickly. Now they are importing slowly and when the CDs get to the last track they don't import and the CD drive just keeps spinning without doing anything! How can I fix this?

    My iTunes was working fine, all my CDs would import fully and quickly. Now they are importing slowly and when the CDs get to the last track they don't import and the CD drive just keeps spinning without doing anything! How can I fix this?
    I don't want to have to restart or reinstall my iTunes again as I'll have to redo all my playlists etc

    Likely that CD then. Check visually for damage, blemishes, etc., not that there's anything you can really do about those other than return the CD.
    The drive sits there and spins because it is trying to re-read the CD.  iTunes has error correction which is contributing to all this re-reading, I believe, and you may be able to disable that in preferences if you aren't picky about the result.
    You can also try other rippers such as Max or XLD.  I know those have configurable error correction.  I like XLD but it is slightly tricky to use until you find that for some reason the author has put all settings under preferences, not just the set once and forget ones.
