My Firefox seems to be crashing every time I try to open multiple windows that seem to load slowly, overwhelm Firefox and make the whole thing crash.

For example, it seems to happen a lot while on the Entertainment Weekly website, (though it happens often on others as well). If I am reading a page and try to pre-load several other articles into new tabs to read as well, it sometimes seems that opening more than a couple of tabs will cause my browser to crash completely while they are trying to load.
Here are my last five crash reports, if that helps:

Unfortunately the linked crash report wasn't send or is empty (@ EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump) and doesn't include any data, so it is not possible to find the cause of the crash.
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    Thanks!

    Dear Linc,
    Thank you for the advice, John Blanchard1  and Linc Davis
    As suggested in your reference thread I removed "/Library/Printers/hp/PDEs/hpPostScriptPDE.plugin" and the problem has been resolved.
    I am guessing the the plug-in for the hp printers got corrupted and effected every thing, or became unsuitable when I installed an Apple update. I would be most grateful if you can confirm how the problem was coursed so I can understand and learn from this experiance.

  • TS2755 Messages Beta Crashes every time I try to open it. Lion on iMac totally up to date and tried downloading messages Beta again and installed..no go. help?

    I cannot seem to get Messages on my iMac to work at all.  Never had any app crash on opening.  Cant get to a menu of any kind to do anything with it as it crashes on opening.  help?  Dont know if Mountain Lion later this summer will fix or not?

    Hi,
    Could you tell me a few things please ?
    Were you using iChat before ?
    After Downloading and Installing the first time did you restart your computer like it said ?
    When you downloaded it again did you Uninstall it first from the Messages Menu (Back to iChat) ?
    Each time Apple have released a new OS the iChat application has also had a new version.
    Lion had iChat 6.  Messages Beta is called version 6.1 (it also shows as iChat in several places).
    It is likely that the non beta version will be a new numbered version.
    At this point try this one thing.
    Open the Applications/Utilities folder and find Activity Monitor and launch it
    In the list of apps and items running find IMAgent  (it will not have an icon as it is a system side support app for FaceTime and ichat/Messages).
    Select it then use the Quit button top left
    Confirm Force Quit.
    It will restart and appear near the top of the list again.
    Will Messages launch now ?

  • Speed grade CS6 crashes every time I try to open it

    I looked up my Speed Grade CS6 and it stated it worked with OS6.8 and OS7. Well, mine will not open, it crashes every time i try to open it.  I have and older Mac Pro 1.1 and can back door it and different processor but am I wasting my time and money I don't have? Help!

    Not on Mac myself, but I've seen several issues on new installs that can be a pain. First ... there's some permissions on the Mac that can with some of the OS releases get set wrong ... similar to the way on the PC side of things some folks have to set it to "run as Administrator account" or something like that. Sorry but I don't know the precise language or location of that setting.
    Second, on installation some times there can be garbage created in pref settings that can cause this ... trying to remember ... it's I think holding shift-alt- while starting the program that gets it by the prefs & setup files, which sometimes fixes this.
    Third, at times you just need to uninstall/reinstall. Best done using Adobe's CC Cleaner tool, as it deletes all the preference/setup files that typical OS uninstalls don't get. And are realistically the things you most want GONE to fix this.

  • Muse crashes every time I try to open a project.

    I was working on a file this morning and saved it on my desktop
    I then went to open it on my laptop and Muse crashes every time I try to open it.

    Thanks for the quick response.
    Yes, on Google Drive.
    I just your answer to a post involving this after I posted this one, about it corrupting the file while syncing.
    I went back and downloaded a previous version of the file from Google Drive and all works fine now.
    Thanks for the solution!

  • Numbers for iPad crashes every time I try to open the date and time keyboard.

    I had numbers 1.6.2 installed on my iPad 2 with 5.1.1
    I can use every feature without problems, but when I try to open the date time keyboard input method it crashes invariably. I tried to fiddle with language, keyboard, region settings and calendar as noted in other posts b to no avail.
    Any idea?

    Hello, I have the same problem. I have an iPad2 with OS 6.01 and Papers, Numbers and Keynote crash every time I try to open a file. Furthermore, I saved the Getting Started file and when when I tried to open it again  the software crashes. Any idea about what is going on?

  • I installed the latest itunes update, 11.4.0.18. Now itunes crashes every time I try to open it.

    I installed the latest itunes update, 11.4.0.18. Now itunes crashes every time I try to open it.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    Do you have iOS 5.1.1 on your original iPad? If not update the iOS.
    You might also try quitting the app and then reset the pad.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Still no joy? Delete the Keynote app, reset the iPad and then reinstall Keynote. You will not have to pay for downloading it again.

  • Why Does iTunes 6 crash every time I try to open it????

    I'm ready to tear my hair out. This is NOT what I want to be doing at 11:43PM. It all started because I wanted to download the song "Wild Thing" the other night. I got a message indicating to download it I have to upgrade to iTunes 6. Given that it's a free upgrade, why not. After a couple of days of assorted problems doing the installation, finally got that right (or so it seemed).
    However, every time I click to open iTunes, it immediately crashes. When I click to report the crash to Microsoft and follow the link, I get this message (my narrative continues after the Microsoft info below).
    Solution found: contact Apple Computer to obtain the update
    Problem description

    I've even tried temporarily shutting down antivirus and antispyware before installing. No dice. Same problem.
    Is this software just buggy or what? I don't WANT to troubleshoot. I just want to access my iTunes library!!! I need 2 or 3 simple steps to make this work. I didn't even want to download iTunes 6. I was perfectly happy with the prior version.

    Go back to a version of iTunes that worked for you. When I upgraded to 6.0.2, I crashed every time I plugged an iPod in. I went back to 6.0.1, and everything works fine now. Make sure you completely uninstall your current "upgrade" of iTunes, then go to http://www.filehippo.com/download_itunes/
    to get a prior version of iTunes for installation.
    Please respond if this works. Seems like problems after the 6.0.2 release of iTunes for Windows have been rampant. Like you, I assumed that every upgrade of iTunes was automatically an improvement. Not so, at least for me and a lot of other users.
    Good luck.
