Restart with no add-ons

How to restart with no add-ons in v29?
Firefox went seriously downhill with this release. Long-standing features are gone.

Hello, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] , click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled....'''
Also you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the '''shift''' key while starting Firefox.
thank you

  • Slow scrolling with all add-ons and extensions disabled, but OK is safe mode

    I have a page for work, with a lot of links, that scrolls very slowly, with a choppy action. It is the same with all add-ons and extensions disabled. But when restarted in safe mode, the scrolling is OK.
    What else does the safe mode block? Or what could be the problem.

    In Firefox 4 and later Safe mode disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
    Try to disable hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • Firefox crashes regularly with different add-ons

    Firefox is crashing with almost any new add-on I install. At first I thought it was a problem with the add-ons, but because it happens so often I suspect it may be something else. I have deleted and changed profiles and I have completely re-installed but I still have the same problem. The most recent add-ons to cause problems have been Zotero and iGoogle Toolbar for Firefox.
    I've included a crash report below, but I'm not sure if that report is relevant to this issue it may have been to do with something else.

    Hi,
    I do have exactly the same problem. Firefox worked fine with all types of Addons. Since then, i upgraded my OS to Snow Leopard, reinstalled FireFox, and reinstalled the different addons. The weird thing is that it lets me install some addons and restard FireFox correctly, but some other addons just crash FireFox at restart.
    Addons that gets installed correclty:
    - Firebug
    - Download StatusBar
    - Siphon SyncAddons
    Addons that crash firefox at restart:
    - ColorZilla
    - XMarks
    My Flash player version is uptodate by the way. (Version d'Adobe Flash Player 10.1)
    Any idea?

  • I cannot download any add-ons--connection faliure with mozilla add ons--not sure what this means or how to fix it

    Hello,
    I have updated Firefox and have 4.0 but I can't seem to add any add-ons. No matter what I try I get the :
    connection faliure with mozilla add ons error message.
    I am on a Mac version 10.5.8
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo

    You have or had an extension installed (MegaUpload toolbar) that has changed the user agent from Firefox/3.6.12 to Firefox/2.0.0.13
    You can check the general.useragent prefs on the about:config page:
    * general.useragent.extra.firefox Firefox/2.0.0.13 MEGAUPLOAD 1.0
    You can open the about:config page via the location bar, just like you open a website.<br />
    Filter: general.useragent<br />
    If general.useragent prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose Reset.

    Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.<br />
    You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.

    See also http://www.java.com/en/download/help/quickstarter.xml - What is Java Quick Starter (JQS)? What is the benefit of running JQS? - 6.0
    Disable the Java Quick Starter extension: Tools -> Addons -> Extensions
    Control Panel -> Java -> Advanced tab -> Miscellaneous -> Java Quick Starter (disable)
    You should update the [[Java]] plugin (Java Plug-in 1.6.0_12) to the latest version (6 U22).

  • SAP shuts down when loggin on with many add-ons if logged on by main screen

    We have 3 custom designed add-ons at the site, where 2 of them are set to start automatically and 1 mandatory.
    It was all ok with 2 add-ons , however with the 3rd the issues started to happen. Listed below is the issue and the way to replicate.
    1.     When logging in through the main screen the add-ons throws errors ( apparently due to not staring up properly such as runtime references lost etc ). The errors are different each time. Ultimately SAP shuts down without letting us do any further action.
    2.     However, if I login through the choose company screen ( click the choose company button on the main screen ) then I don’t have any issues, all add-ons start that are set to automatic and mandatory.
    3.     there are few exceptions :
    a.     When the manager password is “manager” and SAP lets you log on with the blank user id, the main screen log-on is successful with the add-ons starting without issues. ( however if I type user id manager and password manager then still the issue happens )
    b.     When the user is NOT a super user, and when logging in through the main screen NO issues happen. 
    4.     Of course I don’t have any problems with add-ons set to manual, and when started manually, but some add-ons are necessary to be automatic and some need to be mandatory.
    I have tried to delay the add-on connection to the UI with one add-on, however that has no effect.
    my client is concerned with having to logon through the choose company screen.
    any help, workarounds are appreciated.
    regards,
    Indika.

    Hi Indika,
    Thanks for the detailled description of the issue!
    Unfortunately I didn't encounter the issue so far - and I wouldn't know better workarounds from the top of my head...
    I guess you are talking about issues in conjunction with the latest version / patch?
    ...from pracctical experience I know that there's no issue with version 2004...
    ...but this issue should anyway be fixed by SAP Support.
    Did you report it yet?
    Could you tell me the message number?
    Thanks in advance - and sorry for not being able to help better,
    Frank

  • Problems with Dreamweaver Add-ons being installed in Adobe CC 2014 - OSX 10.9.5?

    I have tried to install two add-ons (Photo Gallery for DW and Adv CSS Menu Light) for Dreamweaver CC 2014, but I receive an error notification, stating that they are incompatible with installed Adobe applications.  Both of these add-ons state that they are compatible with Adobe CC 2014, which is what is installed.  I am logged in with an administrator account.  File Sync is turned on.  I have Adobe CC Desktop App 1.9.1.474 which appears to be the latest version.  This is on a iMac 27" Mid 2011 running OSX 10.9.5.  All available system updates have been applied.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the add-ons several times with the same result, on seven different computers of the same build/image.  This is in a classroom environment.  Any recommendations on additional things to try?  Any help is much appreciated!

    More info:  I tried using the Extension Manager CC to get these extensions installed and they each failed out.  One stating that the extension required version 8 or greater of Dreamweaver and the other version 9 or greater.  It would seem to me that, for some reason, either Adobe or the system is not reading the version information correctly of Dreamweaver 2014 which is installed on these workstations.

  • Is there a way to load just iTunes with no add ons?

    Is there a way to load iTunes only without add ons?

    Hi topelovely,
    Were you finding that Muse was overwriting the pages with custom code even when none of the following applied?
    - The page was changed
    - Something used by the page was changed (e.g., styles, swatches, etc.)
    - You were using a new version of Muse
    Thanks,
    Abhishek

  • Firefox 21.0 on OS X 10.8.4 still has a memory leak that occurs with no Add ons, 1 tab and leads to 3GB of memory usage in 10 minutes.

    While using Firefox 21.0 on OS X 10.8.4 with 4GB RAM, Firefox memory usage marches up and up until at 3GB (on my iMac) Firefox hangs and is 100% non-responsive and must be killed with Force Quit. It takes 10 minutes to occur.
    No Add Ons
    One tab

    John99,
    Unfortunately, the problem was WORSE in FF 22.0. I regressed to FF21.0 and shut off automatic updates. I may even go back to FF3.6, which is the last one where I didn't see this problem.
    Thank you for trying but as a longstanding developer I know that pervasive memory leaks is a sign of a broken development process. Thank you for trying...

  • I am having trouble with incompatible add-ons with Firefox 5 and I don't want 5 now because of it

    I got a thing to upgrade Firefox and now my toolbars don't work and I don't want the new Firefox now because of it. How do I go back to previous version?

  • Change original home page with my add ons & themes

    How do I replace the original homepage with one that has my add ons and themes

    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>jzip</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset all <i>jzip</i> related prefs via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • Firefox crashing with no add-ons or plug-ins

    Yesterday, I removed all of my add-ons and deleted all of my plug-ins except for Mozilla Default. Firefox ran smoothly all day yesterday after that. Now today, it's beginning crashing again. (RtlpWaitForCriticalSection | RtlEnterCriticalSection) is the signature of the crash. I don't know what's causing this at all. There is nothing left that could be contributing to this as far as I can tell.

  • Website not loading properly in Firefox. I have cleared my cache, restarted Firefox with no Add-Ons, tried Ctrl-F5 on the tab, nothing. But loads properly on IE

    On Firefox, the product image on the left won't show at all:
    example page:
    http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?GrpTyp=PRD&ItemID=1760d67&DeptID=70752&CatID=70827&SO=0&PCatID=70752&CatSel=4294953304|tables&NOffset=0&Ne=4294957900+5+586+1031+877+1274+838+580+8+18+1545&CatTyp=RLE&Dep=FURNITURE&N=4294953304&Pcat=FURNITURE&Cat=Living+Room&Nao=0&PSO=0&bcCat=3&CmCatId=70752|70827&sa=1
    However, on Internet Explorer 9, it works perfectly, which is how I narrowed it down to being a Firefox problem.

    Is the problem with images in particular? There are several possibilities.
    If it only affects the jcpenney site, try this: right-click the page, choose View Page Info, then click Permissions. Check the first line on this tab. Usually, it is set to "Use default". If that is not checked, click that checkbox, OK the change, then reload the page. Any luck?
    If it affects multiple or random sites, check out this article: [[Images or animations do not show]].
    Any luck?

  • My Norton anti-virus not compatible with firefox add-ons anymore? I can't update without Norton being disabled your warning tells me.

    You sent me a software update. It tells me you found an incompatible add-on. It further tells me that my Norton Vulnerability Protection 11.3.0.9-5 won't work with this update, and will be disabled. I'm suppose to wait until they're compatible and then you will update and re-enable my Norton Protection?? I don't know that much about computers but I do know I need to protect it. I just bought this Norton Anti-Virus Protection at Christmas and now you are telling me it's no good? What am I suppose to do in the meantime? Like I said, I don't know much about this so please use simple terms and be specific.
    Thank You!
    Suzanne Noonan

    That link is for the tool bar, not the vulnerability protection component. The latter is a known issue with Symantec and apparently was a conscious decision on their part on getting patches out in a timely manner at the expense of breaking some functionality.

  • How can I check whether new versions of Firefox are compatible with my add-ons? I specifically need to know this regarding Zotero as I would very much hate to loose my reference data base when changing from one version of Firefox to the next ...

    Is there an add-on that can help me with this? Or do I just install the new version and hope for the best?

    Firefox 9.0.1 is a real old version and is no longer supported - Firefox 24.0 is the current release version.
    Open the Add-0ns manager tab and click on '''More''' for each extension that you have installed. Near the bottom of each "More" there should be a link that will take you to the download page where you can verify compatibility.
    Or use this extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/is-it-compatible/ - but I'm not sure how well it will work when you are so many versions 'behind the curve'.

  • IE crashes when closing, doesn't happen with Reader add-ons disabled

    I'm currently testing out Adobe Reader v11.0.2 before installing it to all the computers at the school.  It seems to be working perfectly fine.  Internet Explorer on the test computer crashes every time I try to close it.  While trouble-shooting that error, it turns out to be a problem with Adobe Reader add-on.  When I disable it, IE closes just fine.  When I re-enable the Reader add-on, IE starts to crash again.
    OS: Vista Business 32-bit
    IE: 8
    Need any other info?

    I'm not viewing any kind of PDF.  I simply open Internet Explorer, view any website, and then close IE.  As it is closing, it pops up a message saying that an error has occurred.  When I disable the Adobe Reader add-on, it doesn't crash. 
    Here is the event log from the Windows Application Log Event Viewer...
      Faulting application iexplore.exe, version 8.0.6001.19412, time stamp 0x51306ca3, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18541, time stamp 0x4ec3e3d5, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x0003dd6d, process id 0xfc4, application start time 0x01ce4c32936d4d09.
    I have uninstalled Reader 11 and the problem has completely disappeared.  I'll play with this some more, but it looks like we won't be using this version here at the school any time soon.
