Since updates last week Firefox crashes each time open google maps even in safe mode

Last week Firefox updated itself and there was a java update too. Since then I have been unable to access google maps within my browser, every time I get the grey background and then FF crashes. Have tried clearing cookies, safe mode, disabled the few plugins installed and a complete reinstall... same problem.
Totally fed up with this

OK tried with a new profile - same problem :-(

Firefox crashes when I open in both regular and safe mode, i am on windows vista help!

The crash ID is
bp-319da289-3ff9-4ac8-943a-c15462110923

The problem began because my computer had to be sent in because it wouldnt turn on so i had to get it fixed they replaced the motherboard this was the second time the motherboard was replaced and once they did that my firefox hasnt worked the same. I can go on google chrome but thats not what i prefer to use.
& when i right click on firefox it says troubleshoot so im assuming its built in to my computer. im not sure.
I tried the profile manager to create a new profile and that has seemed to work so far. No crashing but it does freeze when i got to facebook and then i have to click ctr alt delete to open task manager to end firefox. It happened twice, the third time i went to google, then twitter and it didnt freeze. I then went to youtube and it froze. So Facebook and youtube make it freeze. Any idea why it does that?
& thank you so much for helping and responding to me.

Hi there,
You could try performing a clean installation: [[Knowledge Base Article]] :
Some Firefox issues can be resolved by downloading a new Firefox installer from Mozilla.com, then closing Firefox, deleting the Firefox application folder (program files) and reinstalling Firefox. If this does not help, or if you would rather completely remove Firefox and start over instead of completing all the troubleshooting steps, follow these steps:
1. Download the latest official version of Firefox from Mozilla.com.
* You should avoid unofficial download sites that bundle Firefox with other software such as the Google Toolbar.
2. If you wish to retain your current profile, you should make a backup copy of it. See Backing up your information for instructions.
3. Uninstall Firefox and make sure you remove the Firefox application (program) folder and your Firefox personal data (user data and settings) - see Uninstalling Firefox for instructions.
4. Reinstall Firefox - see Installing Firefox for instructions.
5. When Firefox is started for the first time, the Import Wizard will appear and a new profile will be created.
6. Verify that the issue no longer appears.
7. If you made a backup of your old profile and wish to restore your old information, see Recovering important data from an old profile. For troubleshooting purposes, only copy the files corresponding to your bookmarks and saved passwords.
8. Reinstall your extensions and themes one by one to determine if any specific one is causing the issue.

HT1222 security update 2014-001 1.0 will not load. Not even in safe mode. Says to contact manufacturer?

I have downloaded the latest Security Update from the Apps store, TWICe and neither time has it taken when installing. I then kept clicking and found a version specific to Mountain Lion, which I downloaded. That didn;t take on installation either, not even in Safe Mode. I have a VERY small amount of GB's per month (10 GB) and am increasingly frustrated with having tod ownload stuff that doesn't seem to work. AND the #1 hovering on the App symbol in the dock drives me nuts. Especially after downloading the same update now THREE TIMES?! Can anyon e help me to understand what's going on, or indeed how to make this thing work?

Same here.
Using AppStore twice: "unknown error"
I thought it might be because the AppStore installation didn't have access to my system keychain for administrator privileges, so I downloading manually, opened the DMG and ran the installer. I got the prompt for my password and the installer went almost to the end, including the "optimizing" step, but still same result:
The installation failed
The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
MacBook Pro 15"
OS X 10.8.5
2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1333MHz DDR3
So how does one contact the manufacturer?
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I have noticed many more application crashes (on launch, on quit or at random times), spinning beachballs and use of the Force Quit hotkeys. Maybe Apple should pay more attention to its computer business instead of playing in the fashion biz.

No wifi since update last week on 4s

Since the last update my wifi is completely greyed out so can't select a network. Have tried apple's fix, which worked for all of 20mins. Any other suggestions before I take it in to Apple tomorrow.

If you search this forum, you'll find literally hundreds of threads on this issue with many homemade solutions.

Firefox crashes each time it tries to open. I am running in safe mode now. How do i fix. I have latest crash ID.

This crash is usually caused by to malware and the involved randomly named file in your case is kefuphhe.dll as you can see in the modules list of the crash report.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

If the malware scanners didn't catch it then try this steps:
Try to use MSConfig and disable that file to prevent it from getting started.
*http://www.howtogeek.com/74523/how-to-disable-startup-programs-in-windows/
Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) to see if that allows to locate and remove the file either manually or with a malware scanner.
You will have to search the Windows registry (Ctrl+F) for references to that file and export and remove involved keys to avoid startup issues with missing files or alternatively use a registry cleaner like CCleaner.
If you are not comfortable with editing the registry then it is best to skip this step.

Since about a week Firefox crashes regularly. Now nearly everyday at first use and sometimes later

Now its nearly every day at first use and sometimes later while working. Firefox is running all day as I use it together with Firebug for webdesign. So many tabs open :-)

Firebug probably should not be used unnecessarily, it can interact with other extensions and cause problems. Multiple java console may also potentially cause problems or security risks.

Try Firefox in [[safe mode]] and without Firebug. Presumably you will have read [[firefox crashes]] Do you only get crashes when firebug is enabled ?
As a web developer and Firebug user you may even be able to discover Steps To Reproduce and post those in the bug yourself.

I only installed Firefox last week because IE didn't allow me to develop our website. This week Firefox is causing my computer to "stall" unless in safe mode!

I am running Windows XP (don't laugh) and have been quite happy with IE.
I have tried disabling all plug-ins and have reset a number of times, but to no avail.
Both the mouse and keyboard stop responding for a second or two before they briefly jump back into action and the keep going like this - starting and stalling - which makes Firefox totally unusable!
There seems to be no great load on the CPU when this happens and no demand on the memory!

Hello MaleXLR, try to '''Turn off hardware acceleration''' and check it again (it is in the link '''feer56 gave us in his reply''')
(in safe mode hardware acceleration is disable)
''I am running Windows XP ('''don't laugh''')''
why we laugh ? xp is great (i have it also!!!)
thank you

Firefox crashes constantly after about 5 min (not in Safe mode)

Basic info: using Firefox 14, was working fine until i came back from vacation, fired up my PC, and updated 3 things, Adobe Flash, Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit), and AMD Catalyst control center with the new 12.8 update, then restarted.
Have slowly been attempting to pin down the cause. Uninstalled Flash, firefox still crashes. Tried moving the Mozilla folder to desktop so I could simulate a reset, firefox crashed anyway, so i put the old folder back.
Read some troubleshooting pages on the firefox page and went down the list making sure all was updated and then tried running in Safe mode. So far no crash and we are going on 15 min here, the best I've seen so far.
Note: Just realized my Java version was out of date, uninstalled the old versions and installed the new version. Will see if this helps.
Note 2: Nope, Firefox is still crashing regularly. Java was not the issue. Didn't think so, but was hoping....

Hi edasvangen, try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
(WIN) orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced<br>
(MAC) Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved (or at least greatly improved)?

Firefox plug in container has stopped working, even in safe mode with plug ins disabled

My firefox keeps crashing every 5 - 10 minutes. Sometimes I get a windows error message saying "firefox plugin container stopped working", but most times I don't. These are the actions I've taken so far, with no effect:
1. Updated all my plug-ins
2. Run firefox in safe mode with plug-ins disabled
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled firefox
4. Run an AVG scan which turned up nothing
Can anyone offer advice on how to fix this (very annoying) problem?
I've had to write this in IE because firefox wouldn't stay open long enough for me to copy and paste it into the text box.

Try creating a new Profile by following the steps from [[Managing Profiles]] [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and also [[The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed]]

Firefox hangs when opening Tools - Options, even in Safe Mode

I've just upgraded to Firefox 3.6.13. Prior to upgrading I removed all add ons. I went to Tools -> Options to check the settings and Firefox hung. I had to end it with Ctrl-Alt-Del. This happened several times. Then I started Firefox in Safe Mode and attempted to view Tools -> Options again. Firefox hung. It does not try to submit any crash reports (apart from the automatic Microsoft report that occurs when you end a program manually).
I can browse websites ok, open PDFs, view Flash, etc. I just can't view my options!

Thanks for the note about profile locations.
I deleted mimeType.rdf in my existing profile, still have the same issue - can't view Tools -> Options for the Applications tab, or download a file. Same goes for a new profile - the same issues arise.
Firefox never does crash, I can leave it in this hung state for hours (I left it in a 'not responding' state last night and it was still hung this morning).
I was going to add a screen shot to this post but Firefox hung when I clicked on the 'Browse' button. Perhaps this is an issue when FF tries to interact with my directory structure? Does that get us any leads on what's wrong?
FYI, I currently have my antivirus disabled & not running in the task bar just in case that was interfering somehow.

Firefox 5 craches when loading any website, even in safe mode

Every time after I opening Firefox 5, if I don't enter any links its works. but few second after I entered a link and firefox begins to load it, Firefox is not responding to anything. this problems happens even when I open Firefox in safe mode.
I don't know anything more about it, ther is no message about crach, there is no reports in about:crashes, its just hanging every time.

Please read the [[Basic Troubleshooting]] article to try and narrow down the cause.

Since update last week, unable to resize popup windows?

I used to be able to right click in the bar above the address bar and click Size and move any one of the sides in or out to resize the popup window. Now since the upgrade, it will let me select Size but won't let me size the window, it doesnt go anywhere. Please help!

Hi hgehring76, were you previously using Firefox 12 (released about 8 weeks ago) or the much earlier Firefox 3.6?
Can you check this hidden preference and make sure it is set to "true": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resizing_popups

Firefox crashes each time I'm trying to buy items on Ebay.

After I won an item on ebay and I am transferred to the payment page. When I try IE, it works fine, so I suppose it's a Firefox problem not ebay's.
== Crash ID(s) ==
31189aad-3084-4472-b579-fb8542100612

See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/399985 and https://support.mozilla.com/nl/forum/1/682558
Check for an extension called '''The Browser Highlighter''' in Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions and disable it.
Edit: I see now from Troubleshooting Information that you do have the problematic extension. This can also cause poor startup performance and other problems in Firefox.

Brand new w701ds crashes each time open second monitor

Hello. Just got my new w701ds in the mail today, and everytime I open the second monitor (or boot with it open), I get the blue screen of death and it crashes. Of course, it can't be more disapointed then to buy a product for a specific feature, and then that feature does not work. Is this known? Is it a dud? Any ideas before I send it back?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. Try to update all the hardware drivers and BIOS. For GPU and others, use drivers on Lenovo website to isolate the problems and check whether any 3rd party or oem driver causes this.
2. If it doesn't work, you can call Lenovo Service Center and report a case and they will resolve the problems for you. If still unsatisfied after repair or something, you can consider to get a full refund according to Lenovo. (Within 30 days after purchase)
I am not too sure how well is the service of Lenovo Customer Service at your region. Hopefully they can provide you an satisfactory services and fix your w701ds. AFAIK, W701ds is an flagship and awesome machine and Lenovo being the only one making a dual-screen mobile workstations, I don't think there will be other manufacturers making dual-screen mobile workstations.
Best Regards
Peter
