Since updating to 3.6.22 web pages are very very slow to load and downloads too how can I go back to my healthy computer please?

Last week I updated to Firefox 3.6.22 (?)and since then a whole host of problems have occurred:
web pages are taking forever to load
downloads (like ccleaner and registry booster) wont work
some programs I've used often aren't working correctly (MS Picture manager)
I would like to uninstall 3.6.22 and get back to having a healthy computer again.
Today the web page problem became extreme - pages simply not loading at al and so I have just reloaded 3.6.22 in case something was wrong the first time.
Suggestions please!
I'm not that tech savvy and don't know if the installed plugins you've listed below are correct.....

Firefox 4.0 was released in March, over 3 months ago. If you have some add-ons that haven't been updated yet for Firefox 4.0, much less for Firefox 5.0, it is time for you to find similar replacements for those add-ons. IMHO, extensions like that should be considered as "abandoned" by their developer.

When I click "edit" to manage content on a web page, I see code instead of text and images. How can I fix this?

I edit content on www.fomh.org. Until recently, I could sign in as administrator, click "edit" in the editable area of a web page, and proceed to update text and images. I have been using Firefox to do this for several years. Now when I attempt to do this, I see all the html code in the editable area instead of the text and images.
I am using Mac OS 10.6.8

What is the content of that window?
Can you attach a screenshot?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

AFTER UPGRADING TO LATEST VERSION OF FIREFOX( FOR MAC) ALL WEB SITES ARE VERY SLOW TO LOAD. I HAVE NO PROBLE WITH SAFARI. WHAT DO I DO?

confirmed e-mail [email protected]

Yours is the first complaint about Firefox on 10.8 I've seen, so I'm inclined to think it's a issue with your machine, or a bad download/update or something.

Since upgrading to ios8, pages very slow to load, and can no longer read items in my reading list when offline. ?????

SI since upgrading to ios8, Safari pages are very slow to load, Kindle crashes upon opening, and I can no longer read saved artices from my reading list when offline. Big disappointment. Is it possible to downgrade to previous ios?

I actually managed to fix it! But unfortunately I don't know what I was that I did that helped.
Anyways, this is kind of what I did.
1. I tried to reset form bakup via iTunes, no change.
2. I tried to reset as a new iPhone, problem still there and reading list also as bookmarks!? (several hundred)
3. Noticed that I could delete a bookmark, once in a while, the other times I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
4. Because I figured that it was a memory problem, I thought it made sense to delete as many as possible, witch I did.
5. Noticed that it was more likely that I coould delete a bookmark if I restarted Safari.
6. Notice that it was even more likely that I could delete a bookmark if I turned the Safari sync with iCould off (with option detete information on iPhone) and then back on again.
7. When I was about half way through deleting the bookmark list I suddenly discovered that all but one of the items in my reading list was 'waiting' and one was downloading. I kind of was 'unstuck' now.
8. I started to delete items in my reading list, but every other time I got the 'Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed.' message.
9. It took a while to delete all bookmarks and items in the reading list.
Hope you guys could use the info here to fix your problems too!

PS CC 2014 very slow to load and operate after 2014.2 update

I updated my Photoshop CC 2014 64bit today. It was working perfectly up to the update. Since the update, PSCC 2014 has been very, very slow to load and slow in use. I have uninstalled PS used the PS Cleaner and reinstalled through CC Desktop. The speed problem remains. Interestingly, 3D is the Menu feature that seems to take the longest to load. In other words, the program eventually loads, but 3D appears 6 or 7 seconds later. I don't know if this is significant. The setup was working fine up to the update.
Grateful for any ideas about what may be the problem and what I can do about it.
My system is a 3770K, with 32Gb ram, x4 SSDs one dedicated to OS and programs and the others to data, and an Asus GTX660 (2Gb) graphics card. I am using the latest driver from the Nvidia site. OS is Windows 7 64bit.
I am getting no error messages - just great sluggishness.
Thanks.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I had to get some sleep.
Changing "sniffer" made no difference I'm afraid. I have put it back to "sniffer.exe" having tried reopening with "~sniffer" twice with no success.
Resources. The maximum cpu resource used during the period from clicking the desktop icon to the menus in the program becoming usable is 23%.
At the end of the splash screen when "initializing panels" is briefly on the splash screen, the line for the resource meter for the cpu went red and said "not responding" - the red disappeared once the workspace was active:
Do you need anything more?

My changes to a duplicated page are not syncing up in the Creative Cloud. How can I fix this?

I'm using Adobe Proto on an iPad. I created one page and successfully viewed it in the Creative Cloud. Then I duplicated that 1st page so I could work on the next page in that project. I made some changes to the 2nd page and then synced the project with the Creative Cloud again.
Once I try to view the 2nd page in the Creative Cloud, it's still an exact copy of the 1st page. In other words, my changes on the 2nd page don't show up. I've tried synching the project many times and I get the same result. Tried opening the project from another browser, same result.
My changes to a duplicated page are not syncing up in the Creative Cloud. How can I fix this?
Thank you.

Yes, I'm 99% certain the project is being synced. If I duplicate more than the one page so that I end up with more than 2 pages, I still see every single page that I duplicated and made changes as the initial version of the page.
I duplicated that 1st page again so that I have 3 pages. I made changes to the 3rd one and I'm still not seeing those changes when I look at the page in Creative Cloud. I see the new, 3rd page, so that should mean the project is being synced, correct?

Just restored my iPhone from iCloud. My wife and I have always shared one iCloud ID. But since my restore, when a call comes in, it rings on both my phone and hers. How can I make this stop?

Just restored my iPhone 5 from iCloud. My wife and I have always shared one iCloud ID. But since my restore, when a call comes in, it rings on both my phone and hers. How can I make this stop? We had it all set up fine before the restore, and there was a trick to it in the settings. I've noticed that since my restore, her phone has picked up what looks like the symbol of a phone in the upper right corner of the display, right next to the Bluetooth symbol.

Hi Big Slick,
Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
It sounds like your iPhones may be using a new feature in iOS 8 called Continuity. The following article and information explains how to set up this feature for phone calls. You can review the information on the setup to reverse this effect. My suggestion would be to turn off FaceTime on one of the devices.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
Phone calls
With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
Cheers,
Joe

Since download of Firefox Hello desktop & laptop both on Windows 7 are very slow even after refresh, download history removed and anti virus software turned off

Since download of Firefox Hello my home desktop & laptop, both on Windows 7, are very slow to open. I have refreshed firefox, removed download history and turned off the anti virus software in extensions. All the plugins are up to date. Can we revert back to Firefox without Firefox Hello?

Firefox Hello is simply a wrapper for technology already in Firefox, it doesn't negatively impact performance if you aren't using it. Are you saying that your entire computer is slow or just Firefox?

With FF6 &plugin updates, incl JavaSE6&FlashPlayer11, some Flash loops,see#1, hang when loading. Doesn't happen n my IE7 w/ Flash9. Also,various whole web pages r very slow to open,#2. Same w/ FF7, even FF8 hoping for a fix there!Tried everything,HELP!

2)http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ 
3)My DSL bandwidth & speed are very adequate. 
4)By the way, your silly Submit Feedback button in your silly "Firefox Made Me Sad" page didn't work either. That's why I registered to try using this "Ask a New Question" page. Am I optimistic about getting a real, working answer to my problem? Are you in your frantic haste to keep up with Google Chrome with your [not too wonderful] Rapid Releases so busy that you can't keep up with your faithful users problems? Time and you will soon tell by your answer!
Don't drive me back to IE, PLEASE!

The web pages are coming larger than my screen and I have no scroll bars?

when I open firefox the web pages exceed the physical screen even the icons are flowing outside the perameter. I no longer have a scrol bar to scroll. My google chrome is fine so it is a firefox problem

It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off. 
Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window. 
If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.

My websites are very slow to load since the update

Is anyone else having slow uploading of pages

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Ihave used Firefox for years with great success. But since I updated to Firefox 4.0.1, it has become almost unusable. It is agonizingly slow for me, and crashes constantly. Can I go back to the previous version of Firefox?

I am using windows XP, and have a DSL connection that is not very fast. I think the new version of Firefox may be too complex and have too many things going on for my connection.
The last version worked flawlessly. I had no problems until updating to Firefox 4.0.1, but now I can barely use it.

Try a new Profile.
