Tried everying above- still Firefox makes Facebook freeze and I have to shut it down and start back up.

Yes, I have tried resetting Firefox.
Okay, with that out of the way, I have also disabled all extensions and add-ons when that also did not work.
STILL... I will be typing happily away in Facebook and the screen will just freeze. It will not unfreeze, so I have to shut Firefox down and start it again. It often freezes when something I am typing resembles something FB has a link for. For example, I might type, "I am going to the movies today to see Noah," and then the hyperlink to Noah will appear below it and it will freeze. That is the most common time it freezes (95% of the time) but it is not the only time. I can't even select that hyperlink even if I wanted to. But, with a hyperlink being a possibility, it will freeze. For example, if I type, "I want to say thanks" it will freeze because there might be a hyperlink called, "say thanks." See?
I have put a lot of work and care into my bookmarks and I don't want to lose them by having to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Even if I did, would that even help?
Thanks. Please answer soon. I am tired of having to use Explorer for every time I want to go to Facebook.

  • Hi, I read all about  my Mac book doesn't recognize my iPhone. I tried every advice, still it doesn't work.  I have on MacBook the newest version of iTunes and work with iPhone 3 gs. The line says, you need iTunes higher than 10.6.3. It will not download.

    Hi, my problem: my iphone3gs is not recognized by my MacBook, although I tried every single step you suggested. It happened only shortly, before it worked perfectly. What to do?

    Your OS can not run iTunes higher than the version that you have now, thus no 10.6.3.

  • When I try to access my add-ons, firefox freezes and I have to shut it down

    I never used to have any problems but started getting script errors. I have repaired this but now I cannot access my add-ons. Every time I click on it in the Tools menu, Firefox completely freezes and I have to shut it down.

    Do you have the Personas Plus 1.6 extension? If you do that one is known to conflict with Google Toolbar and cause the sort of problems that you are having.
    Try starting Firefox in [[safe mode]] to see if you can access the add-ons manager. If you can and have Persona Plus, try disabling/uninstalling it whilst in safe mode. If you do not have that add-on, another one may be causing problems, to try to track down which one see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
    Another thing you can try is deleting the files that store details on installed add-ons, if one of them is corrupt it can cause problems. To do that first open your profile folder, for how to do that see the [[profiles]] article.
    After you have opened the profile folder, close Firefox and delete extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini and compatibility.ini. When you re-start Firefox those files will be re-created.

    you do have to actually define the area to be bounced in the dialogue window that comes up - there are some discrepencies in the way that the program behaves like that,
    Apart from the "Include Audio Tail" function, which can leave Logic bouncing for a very, very long time, there are generally, no discrepancies regarding the Bounce Locators:
    If Cycle is enabled, the bounce locators will be set to the cycle locators.
    If Cycle is off, and regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set to the selection.
    If cycle is off, and no regions are selected, the bounce locators will be set from the Project Start to the project end.
    It is smart to actually check that the bounce locators are set where you would like them to be.

    If you get caught with a bounce that does not stop, Command . (period) should do the trick.

  • I've asked this before, but the spinning wheel is still there and sometimes it freezes up to where I have to shut it down manually.

    I've asked this before, but the spinning wheel is still there and sometimes it freezes up to where I have to shut it down manually.  Can someone tell me how to fix this!! I dont really know how to find certain places to check on things.

    The feature media.windows-media-foundation.enabled by default is true, did you have to set it back? Please also check out version 29 it just came out this week.

  • My time capsule cannot connect to my system and I get an error msg -6753. I also get a clicking noise when I start up. I've tried every thing from re setting, un plugging and re setting but nothing works. Anybody have the same problem ?

    A "clicking noise" is often a sign that a hard drive is malfunctioning. Suggest that you power down the device and take it to an Apple store to have them take a look, or contact Customer Service at Apple for instructions.

  • I installed the latest iTunes update. Now iTunes won't recognize my iPod. I tried every step in the trouble-shooting list and nothing works. Apple wants to charge me $35 just to ask them a question. What should i do?

    I have tried every step in the trouble-shooting list, and nothing helps. What should I do?

    I am having this same issue.  I have avoided updating it for months and now that I finally did this is what happens!!  My Ipod goes into charge mode, but then as soon as iTunes opens up to sync it says it knows there is an ipod connected but does not recognize it and it will stop charging and just go to the main screen that comes up when you turn ipod on.  I even tried Uninstalling and reinstalling like it says and that doesn't work.  When I uninstall it, it will let my ipod charge when I connect it to computer.  But as soon as I install iTunes again and try to connect it, it tells me the same thing.  Now I know why I never update to newer versions, so angry right now.  Apple needs to fix this problem cause I've had my ipod for less than a year!!

Because this is becoming ridiculous real quick! Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me answer this question!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.
    <!-- VERY important to include-->
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>

  • Hello, my mac book air won't update. Every time i try it goes onto the purple starry screen and stays that way for hours, so i just have to shut it down. I have deleted a lot on my laptop so there is enough space, please help?

    I believe that system has a hall sensor on it to detect when the lid is closed so it can put the system to sleep and/or disable the monitor so it can be used with an external monitor only. If the sensor is marginal or has a bad cable, it may intermittently cut the monitor on and off, and may likewise put the system to sleep. One way to check would be to plug in an external monitor and if the laptop's screen cuts off or doesn't show up, start using the trackpad and press on a non-typing key like the shift key. If the external display suddenly pops and becomes active while the laptop display remains black, it's probably a problem with the sensor or the cable/connection. You might be able to fool the sensor into kicking on and off by moving a magnet over it. It's located on the left had side of the base with the unit opened up, and right over the audio output plug.
    I know of some people that put a small magnet right over the hall sensor's location so the laptop display turns off and they use the system with an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. If fooling with magnets, make sure they're small and don't get them close to the hard drive because a strong magnet can wipe them out.
    I don't know if this will help you much, but it might.

    You didn't say which model of iPod Nano that you have, but generally there should be a lock setting, that can be turned on or off, to prevent accidental changes in settings. And, there is also a setting to turn on or off a feature called, "Shake to Shuffle." It allows you to change songs by just shaking the iPod.

    recently recieved a second hand Iphone 4. I was testing the Camera, the rear one worked perfectly fine, however when i pressed the switch button the front facing camera shutter freezed and started flickering. In order to get it back to the rear camera I have to reset my settings. Does anyone know why the front facing camera is doing this and how i can fix it.
    iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1

    I would ask the person you received it from if they've had this issue.
    You can completely close out of the camera, then do a reset, hold down the home/power button together until yo usee the apple logo and then release, then wait for you phone to boot back up.
