Using Firefox 7 loads Facebook very very slowly whereas Firefox 6.0.2 has no problems nor does IE

When I or my family attempt to load Facebook and the apps it either takes forever or not at all to load. Other websites are slow, but not as bad. This happens only when we upgrade to Firefox 7, but when using Firefox 6.0.2 we do not have any problems what so ever.

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

    Thank you for the link, but I am not sure how this is going to help me: I am not booting straight to an X session, but prefer to log into TTY1 and have my login shell handle everything from there.
    Here is the relevant part of my .zprofile:
    if (( UID )); then
    [[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec systemd --user
    fi
    As far as I understand, your method works if I enable the [email protected] template when actually booting straight to X.

  • The FireFox Browser loads itself very slowly and makes me wonder if it is loading at all. Is there something that can be done to speed up the FF Browser loading?

    FF Browser 5 loads itself very slowly and takes so long with no sign that it is loading that many times I will click it again and later find that it has loaded itself twice.
    Is there anything that I can do to speed the start-up of this browser?
    It seems that if there is not a way to load this browser faster that FireFox would make an add on that would show us that the Browser is in process of loading at the very least. Thank you for your kindness in any way for help in this regard. Best Regards
    Sincerely Walt

    The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time.

    I'm using firefox 4. It's making problem with Bangla font such as on facebook. It shows Bangla font in a very disordered way! what can I do?

    While I was having the problem, I was already using Ovro and had the font "Siyam Rupali" selected. I changed the font to "SolaimanLipi" provided by Prothom Alo and my problems with Facebook, Gmail and Bangla blogs are gone now.

    Try using the Facebook app instead.

  • My iPod loads songs very slowly

    I had some trouble with the battery-life of my iPod, and I thought erasing the whole iPod would cure this, so I've resetted it. After doing this, my iPod, upon connecting it with my PC (Sony Vaio notebook - Windows XP SP2), started loading songs very slowly. Whereas the transfer of a song used to last a fraction of a second, now a song takes up to 30 sec to be transferred. At this speed, uploading my +4000 songs takes ages.
    I've already installed the latest version of iTunes (6.0) and the iPod updater, but nothing seems to help.
    I've connected the iPod to another computer where the iPod was originally linked to. On this computer an old version of iTunes (4.5) was installed and some songs. The transfer went OK. So the problem was with my Sony Vaio.
    I've disabled Norton Internet Security and Norton Antivirus from the Sony but this made no difference.
    Could there be a problem with my firewire-connection to the iPod ? How can I speed it up ? I would certainly appreciate it if someone out there could help me. Many thanks in advance.

    Have you tried another USB port?
    Another computer?
    Another Cable?
    A wall charger?

  • Firefox 28, 29 and 30 load pages very slowly - Google Chrome is OK on the same PC...?

    Windows XP SP2 on a Dell Precision 340, Pentium 4, 2GB RAM, two GeForce MX4000 graphics cards, AVG Internet Security 2014. Broadband connection with download speeds up to about 27Mb/s.
    I get the same symptoms on a homebuilt system with an almost identical spec.
    Internet pages with any graphics at all load very slowly. Reliable websites like BBC News can take at least 30 seconds to open, making Firefox unusable for surfing.
    Google Chrome, on the same PC, opens the same pages in about 4 seconds.
    Firefox running under Ubuntu Studio 9, on the homebuilt PC, is also fine, so I don't think it's my internet connection.
    Firefox 30, on Windows 7 64-bit Professional with Norman Endpoint Security, is fine on my work laptop.
    What's slowng down Firefox 30 on my Windows XP machines please?

  • LSP causes firefox to load pages very slowly

    I'm a developer for a company that produces content filtering software. Our filtering component is an LSP that monitors network traffic. For some time now, we've been experiencing periodic issues with Firefox and our LSP.
    This is not a crash, and Firefox is not frozen. But when you try to load a page, Firefox comes to a point where it just spins trying to access the same socket over and over again. Clearly our LSP is doing something that Firefox doesn't like, but eventually Firefox breaks out of the spinning and loads the page.
    I'd like to know if there is someone involved with Firefox development that I can communicate with to resolve this issue.

    Hi coverton,
    I did pm you:
    You may not easily see this. Initially I do no want to answer your question on the forum, as an answer may then deter others from replying. This is not something that I understand but my suggestions are:
    you say for some time you have had a problem <br>
    if this is a Firefox regression which version did it occur on <br>
    file a bug on bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=dupes|Firefox
    <br> or you may in fact find it is a known issue, an example of a bug fixed in Firefox 13 is
    <br>Bug 712363 - SSL connections do not work correctly when not managed by the socket transport service (including especially when the socket is not non-blocking)
    <br>have a look through the mailing lists and forums you may find a useful one http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/
    <br>also consider looking on the various mozillazine forums http://forums.mozillazine.org/index.php
    This sort of problem is probably slightly outside the range of problems we attempt to solve on this forum.
    My view is that basically if the problem clearly does not exist in one version of firefox, but does from a certain later version then there was some sort of change, and if that was not intentional it is a regression and appropriate to file a bug for. <br/> ( If the change was intentional there will almost definitely be a bug filed documenting the change. )
    If you do post a bug suggestions would be
    * First try it in the latest nightly just in case the problem was fixed. http://nightly.mozilla.org/
    *Try to narrow down a regression window,<br/>so please test in Firefox 10 and 11.
    *There is a tool for narrowing down regressions by automatically downloading a bissected range of Nightly builds and running them in turn with a dialogue to confirm or otherwise that there is a problem (last time I tried the tool I had a problem with it but it was probably user error, or is now fixed )
    ** see https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression
    Obviously you will need to rule out that it is due to changes in third party software, and to demonstrate the problem you will need some reproducible steps, so it could be appropriate to try discussing the problem on a forum in order to build some sort of test case prior to filing a bug.
    As you have asked here it would be useful to know what happens so please post back if you file a bug or find a forum or mailing list that provides a solution.
    Good Luck
    P.S. <br/> I note you filed '''''Bug 756216 - LSP Causes Firefox to Load pages slowly '''''

  • Firefox is slow in responding to commands and loads pages very slowly.

    I'm unable to use Firefox most of the time because commands are slow in running( like Scrolling down a page.). Most pages take forever to load and while they are doing so. Navigation crawls to a stop. I'm now using Chromium by Google because it's faster and I can continue to work the page while it finishes loading.

    Thanks for replying Sisham.
    My system meets all the requirements. I agree with you that with a better hardware installed the software will be much more usable, but I feel that, since my system is OK with the requirements, Illustrator should work much better, at least on the basic tasks. I'm especially concerned because Illustrator CS6 worked fine, and that version of Illustrator has got the same system requirements, so I'm not sure that with a better hardware the program would run normally.
    There's no difference in managing complex files with multiple linked images or small low resolution files with a couple of objects: I have this delay in zooming and panning, selecting, moving objects...
    I'm wondering if I should check any specific setting inside the program.

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1 loads pages very slowly with Windows XP 64 bit version

    Our company has purchased Dell Precision T3500 workstations with Intel XEON processor and 6 Gb of RAM. The operating system is Windows XP 64-bit version. The systems came with Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1. Each one of these workstations load PDF files into Acrobat very slowly. Does anyone have a answer why?

    c.  Right click on the ethernet controller and click "Update Driver"
    d.  Click "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)"
    e.  Click "Dont search.  I will choose the driver to install."
    f.  Double click the "Network Adapter" entry, and then click "Have Disk..."
    g.  Select the directory which you extracted the driver files to
    i.  You will get messages saying that Windows cannot verify that the driver matches your hardware, and that the driver is not WHQL certified.  Ignore these and click "Continue"/"Install Anyways" and your RealTek RTL8169/8110 ethernet adapter will spring to life
    after i have done this the pc just stops. and if i reboot it stops at the loading screen :/ can you tell me whats wrong i got a k8t neo serie card and windows 64 bit edition

  • Previous version of Firefox killed Zone Alarm - has this problem been corrected?

    While installing the previous version update of Firefox it showed a box on the screen saying it had found an incompatible file in Zone Alarm Ultimate Security and was deleting it. No further explanation - and no way for me to say 'yes' or 'no'. Sure enough, the ZA panel showed that I was not protected. Unacceptable. Went to IE, with the MS firewall and anti virus, crossed my fingers, toes, eyes etc and got back on line. Finally managed to download Zone Alarm again - took a big chunk out of my monthly Verizon data allowance. Switched to Chrome, it plays nicely with ZA, but I would much rather use Firefox. So - has this foul-up been corrected. Is it safe to come back to Firefox? May 23, 2014

    Thanks for the explanation - and I must admit, somewhat more polite than my post. I don't want to have to again go through the trauma of having to keep my firewall/anti-virus program working properly, I guess I'm stuck with Chrome.

  • Firefox and Thunderbird are using a lot of memory and load pages very slowly!

    CPU levels are going through the roof when using Thunderbird and Firefox.
    Both programs are freshly installed on a new and also freshly installed version of windows 7!
    Loading of my pages is taking forever and most pages don't load at all.
    My email is [email protected]
    My notebook got so hot that it turned itself off!
    Memory is above 250 KB for firefox and Thunderbird above 150 kb!

    I do not have a ComObjects folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files. That is not part of Firefox.
    wscript.exe is a utility included with Windows to run scripts at the system level. It generally is not used by major programs. If update.exe is starting up with Windows, you may be able to find the script that wscript.exe is running using [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx Autoruns].
    It definitely sounds viral. I suggest deleting the update.exe file, although Windows might prevent you from doing that until you kill all related processes. And if you have a persistent infection, the file may be restored or re-downloaded.
    It might be easiest to seek assistance from a forum more dedicated to malware cleanups such as the following:

  • Firefox 4.0 loads pages very slowly - will this be fixed soon?

    I upgraded to version 4.0 and it is much slower in page loading then any of your previous versions. Are you going to be fixing this problem soon? Or do I need to look for a different web browser to use... Very disappointing! So much for FASTER than before - NOT!

    It will work again if McAfee does a full update...

  • Pages on Safari not completely rendering/loading and very slowly.

    I own an iPhone 5 which was on 7.1.2. I updated to 8.1 on release and everything seems fine except for one major issue. Safari seems to strangely only render certain parts of pages. This is especially noticeable on pages with many images and links. Safari also seems to load pages a bit slower as well as videos in general, but the main problem is if you try to load a page with lots of pictures or elements, parts of them will not load and will be blank. I did not have this issue on 7.1.2.
    Please note that I have already factory restored the iPhone 5 as brand new, and have no loaded or installed anything onto it at all while testing this.
    I took an iPhone 4S I own which is still on 7.1.2, and on the same exact WiFi network, was able to load the page completely. While my iPhone 5 on 8.1 misses a few links. This happens everytime I load a page, the iPhone 4S on 7.1.2 loads the whole page, the iPhone 5 on 8.1 misses some. Not only this. The iPhone 4S, an older iPhone with a weaker CPU and less RAM loads pages much FASTER. I was BLOWN AWAY at how much faster my old iPhone 4S was loading pages than my iPhone 5. When my iPhone 5 was on 7.1.2 it was always faster.
    It may not seem noticeable at first, but when you load that first busy webpage, you will notice that it does not all come up, and Safari no longer has the "spinning" wheel which says its trying to load.
    This also carries over into Chrome and other third party web browsers which try to render web pages.
    Can anyone else confirm this issue? I regret updating to 8.1 at this point, new keyboards aren't worth a device which will not load an entire web page. If you're reading this its probably too late, but in case you haven't, DO NOT UPDATE from 7.1.2 (or 8.0.2 if this was an issue then) if you value Safari being fast and accurate. Lets hope Apple fixes this.

    I'm still seeing random reports about this, can anyone else confirm? I wonder if its device specific not everyone has the issue, but my 4S on 7.1.2 is still beating my iOS 8.1 iPhone 5 on the same Wi-Finetwork and not having issues with not loading all images on screen.
