SOUND DISTORTED ON ALL APPLICATION WHEN USING FIREFOX

when I try to use google phone or listen a sound clip from the internet or run a TV episode the sound is distorted.

Disabled the hardware acceleration and that seemed to help. Haven't seen the problem again so far, but will keep an eye out and try the next thing if it comes back.

I have 2 inches of empty space on both sides of the screen on all websites when using firefox. How do I get webpages to fill the screen?

All my webpages on firefox have about 2 inches of empty space on both sides of the screen, but on Internet Explorer there is much less empty space or mostly none at all. How do i fix this?

I can't make out from your low-res screenshot what those gray images in the menu at the left are, but I do not see them and there is nothing int the page source that accounts for them.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Sound distorted and no control when using akg k451's with 'in line remote' cable

Just bought a pair of AKG k451 headphones from Amazon.
The headphones come with 2 different cables, a standard cable, and one with an 'in line remote' for use with Apple products.
The sound is fine with the standard cable, but if I use the 'in line' cable, the sound is distorted and there is no control of volume or play/pause function.
I'm sure I have a problem with my iPhone 4S, as it works fine with both my wifes 4s and my ipad 2.
It almost as if my phone does not like anything with a 'in line' remote.
I'm running latest iOS etc and my phone is over 2 years old.
Is this something that can be fixed, or will I need a new phone?
Any suggestions would be grateful.

shortytenshi,
Caveat--I haven't tried this kind of hookup, and you didn't mention what Soundcard or game console you are using. But let me see if I understand correctly. You have two female RCA audio connectors on your game console. I'm guessing you ran two male-male RCA cables from the console to the two female RCA jacks on the Y splitter. And then you put the stereo plug of the Y-splitter into the Line-In of your SoundBlaster card (what card do you have?) You said you tested the cables, but you mentioned the female jacks, so I assume you mean that you tested the Y-Splitter. Have you verified that the male-male cables are intact and that your game console is puting out stereo on them? And do you have your speakers set to 2.0 and Line-In selected as your REC source and unmuted as your Playback source? Some cards also have a left-right speaker balance. It also would help if you could try recording from some other stereo source both using the same and different cables to test whether the card Line-in jack or cables are at fault.

When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted.. help?

Firefox 3.6.8 and 3.5 (I downgraded to see if that would solve the issue)
Windows 7
Intel Core i5
Flash Player: WIN 10,1,53,64
When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted. The image turns into lines and sometimes it half of the screen of the video. Examples are streaming MLB.tv video and some vimeo videos. The odd thing is that it isn’t all Vimeo videos. Is this a flash issue?
The issue does not happen with Internet Explorer which leads me to believe this is an issue with Firefox. I downgraded to 3.5 and the issue still persists.

My iMac freezes when using Firefox

My iMac freezes when using Firefox. We have to restart our computer.

TutorDaddy, if this Mac is still covered by the initial warranty or under AppleCare, take it in and have it looked at. As the old label used to say, there truly are "no user serviceable parts inside." Kernel panics very usually indicate failing hardware.
I have an older iBook G4 that started developing kernel panics and like you, despite reinstalling the OS from a freshly formatted volume, they kept continuing. I looked at the crash log and saw that in each instance of panic, the last bit of code to be accessed had something to do with AirPort. Knowing that the AirPort software was at then current levels, I surmised the problem to be a bad AirPort networking card which, on that particular model of the iBook, was a very small module attached directly to the logic board. Since the computer was out of AppleCare, I broke the machine down myself (I didn't realize that there could be so many barely visible screws in one machine) and removed the offending piece of hardware. My iBook lives but without WiFi, it now sits as a more or less desktop machine needing an ethernet connection to stay connected to a network.
I do not suggest you break into your iMac. First of all, I'm guessing one would need to be able to pull off the glass and have the necessary glue to reattach it, which is not really available to us consumers. If you're feeling adventurous enough to read the crash logs from each panic, you might be able to surmise the hardware component (or badly written application or library; it can happen) that's causing the panic. If it's a software issue, remove the offending software app and see if the panics return. If it's a hardware issue, it's best to let a competent service tech qualified on Apple hardware to handle it.

After browsing through related problems in the discussions, I saw this link to a third-party web site being handed out. Perhaps you'll find it useful: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html

MBP Error when using Firefox 3.0

When using Firefox 3.0b2 with no other apps open, I get the following error "There was an error writing data to the disk. This error is sometimes caused by a full disk. Please restart this application."
My HD has 104.63 GB free. I regularly do all the daily, weekly, monthly tasks via Onyx. I also religiously run Disk Utility to repair permissions. Ideas?

It's still in beta. Report the crash in detail to the Mozilla team. Always suspect beta-ware before your computer.

The ability to Scroll when using Firefox has suddenly stopped but works ok in IE, microsoft apps etc. Help please?

The mouse driver is Synaptics but this works with all other apps and Internet Explorer, but suddenly stopped when using Firefox and all tabs. Not sure why so can you help?

If it is a laptop, I've heard of vertical and horizontal scrolling being switched on the touch-pad in Firefox. Bring up "Mouse" in the Control panel and see if you can fix there, best if just going there fixes, but that's really pushing luck. If you activate horizontal and deactivate vertical wonder what happens in other applications.
My driver only allows vertical scrolling control along the right edge and does not provide horizontal scrolling at the bottom edge I turn the mousepad off though and use a mouse.

Processor locks up when using Firefox, help!

I am still new to the Mac world and need some help.
I have a 2009 Macbook, with Mac OS X, 10.6.8, Processor is 2.26 and memory is 4gb.
I've noticed lately that when using Firefox I seem to have lock up issues and I can't click anything. The rainbow processor thing just keeps running and running. Often times I cannot even click the Apple icon in the tool bar in order to get to force quit. (I don't know what buttons to push for force quit)
The only way to solve the problem is to hard boot the computer and I know that is not a good thing to do. What is going on with the processor as to why it gives me hang ups when using Firefox? I have about 5-6 windows open and each has about 7-8 tabs open.
Should I upgrade to Mountain Lion? Will that help? Again, any advice or assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated, keep in mind I am not a techie kind of person, so simple terms will be best.
Thanks Apple community.

Ever since I downloaded v12, my computer has been locking up at least twice a DAY. I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything, including Firefox itself, as well as Adobe, and all the plug-ins associated with the application. I've run Spybot, C-Cleaner, and my anti-virus to confirm that there's nothing else wrong with the computer outside Firefox. If the computer is rebooted and Firefox is not opened, the system is fine. But once Firefox has been opened - even if it survives the session and I close Firefox - the computer is about 75% likely to lock up, requiring a hard reboot. I'm running Vista Home edition (32 bit). If anyone has a clue what might help stop this - because I'm quite sure that it's not healthy for my computer to be hard rebooted twice (or more) a day - I'd love to hear it! It's getting waaaay more than annoying, enough so that I'm ready to move to another browser to stop the problem.

I can not attach any attachments to my emails on mobile me when using firefox. It is fine in Safari, but I love Firefox!!! What shoudl I do?

everytime i try and attach something to an email when using firefox, it is impossible. i can only attach attachments in safari.

My computer locks up when using Firefox

When using Firefox my computer periodically locks up. My screen goes blank and everything is unresponsive. I have to to a hard reboot to get my computer back up. I'm using a 64 bit version of Windows 7 and I have the latest version of Firefox installed. I typically don't use any of the plug-ins.

I can't see the body of emails in hotmail when using firefox 37.0.1 I can see them in IE and firefox mobile. Help please

I resend some emails regularly with only slight changes to the email so I usually do a "reply all" or "forward" . Recently I cannot see the text in the body of the emails using FireFox, however I can see the complete email when using FireFox mobile or Internet Explorer. Any ideas what is causing the problem and how to fix it? I have tried to copy and paste the text into a new email but that didn't work.
I am using Windows 7 SP1 Home Premium and FireFox 37.0.1
Any help would be appreciated.

I uninstalled Adobe reader, then did the rest of your suggestions but the problem remains. It is only with 3 emails that get resent daily with slight changes to the text. It is like most of the text has been removed from the email.

I have a mac 10.6 system when using firefox, I can no longer open attachments or downloads. I deleted firefox and reinstalled and it still doesn't work.

When using firefox, I can no longer open attachments, pdf or downloads. A new window will open and it is blank. The only way to open an attachment or pdf is to shut down firefox and use safari. Everything works with safari so I can't understand what went wrong with firefox. I even download adobe reader thinking that would help. I then deleted my original firefox and re downloaded firefox again. It still doesn't work.
I am using a 10.6 operating system on my Mac.

Try to disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

PDF files may also be found under another entry like Portable document.

Why is Windows 7 freezing when using Firefox?

-Has been happening for months now with many attempts to pinpoint cause. Have come to the conclusion that it is Firefox but don't understand why.
-When using Firefox, my entire PC, not just Firefox, will freeze. Sometimes it happens within the first 5min of using Firefox, other times it could happen an hour into a session. A hard restart is the only way to get back to my desktop as I have waited an hour before after a freeze and nothing happens. Mouse pointer won't move, nothing.
-Initially thought it was a hardware issue or an anti-virus issue.
-Reinstalled windows on three different hard drives that all pass the disk check. Still happens
-Installed windows 8 to see if that would fix the problem. Nope, does the same thing on Windows 8.
-Ran Memtest 86+ for 14 hours one night to see if it was my memory. Nope, zero memory errors found
-To be sure I even tried only using one stick of ram in my PC at a time to see if any of the sticks were bad. Nope, it froze with every stick
-Tried changing my anti-virus. It froze with every single one, AVG Free, Avast Free, Microsoft Security Essentials.
-I figured out that my PC only freezes when I am browsing the web in firefox. If I use chrome or Internet explorer, it doesn't happen. These total PC freezes only happen when I am using firefox.
-My only add on/plug in that I am using is Adblock plus besides the default ones that come with Firefox.
-My firefox is up to date, I have reset it and reinstalled it [while only adding Ad Block +] and this still does not fix the problem
-In the windows event log the only thing that happens every time my PC freezes is the Error "Session "Microsoft Security Client OOBE" stopped due to the following error: 0xC000000D", why this would only affect Firefox, I don't know.
-I would like to figure out the cause of this because I would really like to use Firefox again.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might 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.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
Try closing Firefox completely
*Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
*Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
If that does not work, try restarting the system.
If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
*''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
replace those files instead.

Internet explorer opens a new window when using firefox

When using Firefox, Internet explorer sometimes opens the same website or opens up a pop up advertisement.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Noticed it for the last week or so

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.
