What is the reason for a slow Firefox on a new powerful laptop? (with no other programs running and with no infection of viruses or adwares)

''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/914529''
With about 1500 bookmarks and just 4 active Firefox extensions on my new laptop (Dell XPS L502, Core i7, 6GB of RAM, Win7 64-bit Ultimate) my Firefox boots up and works real slow. by slow I mean it boots up in 15 seconds; and with 3 tabs open when I switch tabs, it takes 5 seconds to switch to the new tab some of the times!). Internet Explorer and Chrome work much faster and I think this is not normal for Firefox. what can be the problem?
Can this be because of my VGA card? my system has 2 VGA's; the 2GB GT540M Nvidia graphic card which is not active by default for Firefox and an Intel on-board VGA which is working by default for normal usages like browsing.
I do not think this is a virus or anything, I have Updated malware and virus protection; and my RAM and CPU are not more than 25% loaded when running Firefox.

What is the reason for query take more time to execute

Hi,
What is the reason for the query take more time inside procedure.
but if i execute that query alone then it excute within a minutes.
query includes update and insert.

I have a insert and update query when I execute
without Procedure then that query execute faster but
If I execute inside procedure then It takes 2 hours
to execute.Put you watch 2 hours back and the problem will disappear.
do you understand what I want to say?I understood what you wanted to say and I understood you didn't understood what I said.
What does the procedure, what does the query, how can you say the query does the same as the procedure that takes longer. You didn't say anything useful to have an idea of what you're talking about.
Everyone knows what means that something is slower than something else, but it means nothing if you don't say what you're talking about.
To begin with something take a look at this
When your query takes too long ...
especially the part regarding the trace.

When I try to install CS6 Design and Web Premium from a disk I get this message "We are unable to validate this serial number..." What is the reason for this?

I purchased a disk copy of CS6 Design and Web Premium from a reputable seller last week and when I try to install it with the serial number I got it says "We are unable to validate this serial number for CS6 Design and Web Premium. Please contact Customer Support." What is the reason for this?
Is the serial number invalid?

Hi Ned,
Thanks for the suggestion. I eventually got in touch with Adobe Technical Support and it turned out that my Adobe Application Manager was not the latest version. They downloaded the latest version and installed it and that seemed to solve the problem. I was able to install my CS6 Creative Suite and validate the serial number. All seems to be going well at the moment.

How can i get to know what is the reason for implausible meater reading?

Hi All,
I am new to this SAP -ISU.
can any body tell me how can i get the reason for implausible meater reading.
my requirement is to get the unbilled meters becasuse of unrealibility of meter reader.
here what i understood is if meater reading is not in a position to bill so it means meater reading may be in implausible state. so i want to know the reason for implausible meater reading so that i get the meters which are not billed because of unreliasility of meter reader.
in which table these reasons get store.
if any body knows about these please reply me ASAP.
Thanks in Advance.

At the very least, you will receive EXACTLY the same product you sent in. You may get a newer product. It's Apple's choice.

What's the reason for " 'Writing XMP Metadata' did not complete successfully

I rightclicked an image and selected "save metadata to file" and got this not-so-very-informative error message. What could be the cause? The file is there and it is not write protected.
Adobe - what about giving some more information when LR encounters errors?
Win XP, LR 1.3.1

While read only is the most likely cause, I have been trying to track down a similar problem which so far I can only equate to the creation time of the file ending in 00.
For example, I have a file taken at 6/13/2006 1:00:00 PM
If I do Metadata -> Edit Capture Time...
and set the time to be 6/13/2006 1:00:01 PM
Then click twice on the Resolve Conflicts button for Metadata, the second one works. Both times I tell it to overwrite the metadata on disk. My assumption is that the data processing logic has issues reading in entries like:
2006-06-13T13:00:00-08:00
I would even go so far as speculating it treats them as just the day and drops the hour / minute portion. The reason for this conjecture is that I stumbled on this issue when exporting images would occasionally have 2006/06/13 12:00AM as the timestamp and when I checked which ones had problems, they all were taken at 00 seconds into the minute.
Henrik, if you are still having this problem, does the file happen to have a 00 second creation timestamp? If so, try changing it by a second and I would be curious if you it starts working for you too.
Cheers,
John

What is the reason for this error? after export part of movie broken

hi, i cannot find the reason for this strange error that happaned to me for the first time, you can see the outcome here:
http://picasaweb.google.com/p.cardash/IMovieBug/photo#5164317113276584274
after exporting in imovie to h264 .mov file, from HDV project, resolution is twisted, plus, the part that was supposed to fit hole screen, is black and sometimes with little graphic errors.
i tried about 10 times, with different setting, resolutions, and other parameteres.
after exporting for ipod, everything is ok, in m4v format.
what is wrong? i use the same method for creating and also for exporting, as in previous projects. i didnt use any new transitions, efects nor titles...
any thoughts?
best to You,
Piotr

ok, i think that i know where is the problem, but i still dont what is it
ive copied my file to a new mac with just installed imovie and everything is the same,exactly the same output. so 100% positively the problem is within the particular project.
i didnt check my mackbook with TT, since i dont have it and dont want to pay i thought its for free
i`ll try later to figure out what wrong and what part of the project is bad.
for now, i think i hate imovie again :)) piece of..
let me know how your case ended.

What is the reason for nokia viberation..?!

Hi, guys..
My phone, Asha 303..
Iam asking about all nokia mobile, is there any known reason for why all nokia phones disable vibertion option automatically when charging the phone???
* it comes in my mind that there is danger for electric rays or network danger or (SAR), so what the real reason for that thing???

yasfer21 wrote:
I cannot find in any phone brand userguide or manual saying that the phone vibrating on a hard surface is a feature.
Seriously this argument is pointless. What is it that you are fighting for anyway? @ViRUS2013
P.S. We're not actually fighting, it's just as expression.
The topic is subjective. I'm on neither side.
I'm not fighting for anything. I just find your reasons for why Nokia chooses to disable vibration while charging to be really far-fetched and inconclusive and would like the discussion to continue until we come up with an idea that sounds reasonable or we get an official response. I mean, isn't that what people does on forums anyway? Open debate and all...
So far I think it might be related to the battery, maybe it's dangerous for the battery to vibrate while it's charging and the particles inside are moving or it gets hot while charging, but that's just my uninformed opinion.
farby wrote:
Not sure what this discussion is all about ?? My Lumia vibrates on incoming calls even while on charging (so not ALL Nokia phones)
If the vibration alert is getting disabled while charging certain models, IMHO I will be on the OP and ViRUS2013 's side.
What Lumia do you have? Does it have a removable back cover?

Was surprised as you when I scratched my first Nokia this way.
What model was it? I mean, Nokia is well-known for the quality and durability of its devices so it really amazes me that a phone can get scratches just by vibrating on a nightstand

What is the remedy for a slow running iMac?

What is the remedy for a very slow running iMac?

Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable. Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the slowdown.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Step 2
Launch the Console application in the same way as above, and select “kernel.log” from the file list. Post the dozen or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
If there are runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Do not post many repetitions of the same message.

either something got damaged when you installed the hard drive or you need to perform a pram reset (other possibilites could have occured, these are the ones I think)
