When running an app the Firefox will sudenly go "not responding" and lock up

What more can I say? There is no pattern. I can be running the app successfully and suddenly it goes "pale" and at top says "not responding". A sign may come telling me that and asking if I want to 1) wait for it to work (it seldom does) or 2) close it down, which means I lose all of the programs on the tabs.
WHY DOES IT DO THAT AND HOW CAN IT BE STOPPED?

Firefox browser keeps going into not responding mode and the firefox experts continue to "not respond" to the problem. Firefox 11.0 and W7.

Firefox browser keeps going into not responding mode and the firefox experts continue to "not respond" to the problem. Firefox 11.0 and W7. When will you respond??

Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works find in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. you can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.
Now when Firefox hangs, is this randomly, on specific websites, etc.? You can also read [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-hangs https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-hangs]

hiskebdb,
If it happens when moving an object/text, the issue may be caused by the Chrome Pushbullet extension, see this post #3 by Matt with the solution,

My aux input does not work. When i put in my headphones my mac does not respond, and my speakers just continues as normal. What to do?

I had the same issue. Initially i thought i need to take it to apple for replacing the aux port. But luckily I was able to fix it by resetting the PRAM . To reset the PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Immediately press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
You can try this before you take to apple store. It may work if you are lucky. Good luck

Firefox will go intoa "not responding" freeze mode

When I move from site to site or page to page firefox will go into a freeze and it says "not responding" and I have to wait awhile for it to return to normal. If I use Explorer I do not have that problem

I get a dialog box to allow a cookie from Yahoo mail but it does not respond and locks up the entire browser. All other sites work fine.

The sign in page for yahoo mail wants to set cookies. I get a dialog box that asks to set a second cookie but it is unresponsive, eitehr to check allow or close it. Going to task manage says the site is waiting for input from me but I cannot get the browser to respond in any manner whatsoever.
All other tabs work fine and the yahoo site can be opened with IE fine.

Set up to "Ask me every time" in the Privacy elections. I think I found the problem. Looks like there were two dialog boxes, the second right on top of the first so I could not check the first one so it never got the OK and kept waiting for input.
Seems OK now.

Click firefox drop down, then click options, select tool bar.

Hi sjeure,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would recommend restarting and resetting your device to see if the unexpected app closing still happens:

When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running but not responding and I can't run another Firefox at the same time. I uninstalled and reinstalled. No change. Tried various other suggestions. Help!!

When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running, but not responding and that I should close it before trying to run another Firefox. But I cannot find a way to close Firefox program that is not running as far as I can see. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but that did not work. I've tried various other things, but no luck. I thought programs should stop when the computer is turned off, but that didn't work either.

How are you opening the Profile Manager?

Sounds that Firefox is still or already running.<br />

I bought an iPhone 5s in China and the maps app is different. When I go to the US will I be able to use Apple's native app or will I be stuck with this one?

So I wanted to ask a question that my googlefoo couldn't help me solve.
I bought an iphone at a reputable electronics market here in China and it is an AT&T model phone. I bought it at one of the grey market locations because they were sold out elsewhere. I contacted a friend at AT&T to make sure it is a legit AT&T model. The phone is great and everything works perfectly including maps. But maps are done by Autonavi here in China, not Apple. I downloaded the Mavericks update on my mac and tried some of the new maps features and they wouldn't work with my phone. That's okay since I live in China now but I'll be going back to the USA soon and I wonder what will happen. Will it update the app to Apple's native one or stay with Autonavi. Autonatvi does not have the flyover features and it is not robust in the USA.
Who can help me out here? Has anyone purchased a 5, 5c, or 5s in China and gone elsewhere? Did the maps app change?
Thank you
tl;dr my china iphone has autonavi for maps not apple, when I go to the usa will I get the native app?

I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport" it replies it cannot locate it)
I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
Perhaps iOS Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
Use Google Maps instead
BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top!

When I click onto the firefox webbrowser, I get the message "firefox has stopped working, windows will close the application to find a solution to the problem " This has been going on for several days, I've had to go back IE to access web pages

When I click onto the firefox webbrowser, I get the message "firefox has stopped working, windows will close the application to find a solution to the problem."

I had this exact same problem. I found this fix and it worked for me.
Step 1:
Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll.
Step 2:
Browse and past that file into C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes.
Hope this helps you. I wish I could remember where I saw this originally so I could thank them.
Good Luck.

Next time an app update gets stuck try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons for10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait till your iPad starts on it's own. Try now. Also YouTube is still available. If you can't find it the the app store go to the bottom of the app store page and tap purchased. All your deleted apps will be listed and you can reinstall YouTube from there.

When i click on the Firefox icon, a message about Torbutton appears. Wen i close the messag, i get a proxy error note.

I recently downloaded the latest version (15.0.1) of Firefox for my Mac. When i click on the Firefox icon, i get a display "Important Torbutton Information". It states "Torbutton is now always enabled. Click on the Torbutton for more information". I click on OK. I then get a display that states "THE PROXY SERVER IS REFUSING CONNECTIONS". I believe that i have two problems. 1. How do i fix the Proxy Server.
(2) How do i access Torbutton?

I downloaded Firefox 4; it's in the dock, but when I click on the Firefox symbol, it says I should download Firefox 4; how come?

I don't know how to give any more details than I have. Although there is an icon labeled Firefox 4.0.1 dmg in the dock (It is a square kind of thing that looks like a piece of paper with the upper right corner turned down with a smaller square inside it), it just seems to sit there. When I click on the Firefox symbol (also in the dock), it opens, but with the suggestion that I download Firefox 4. But I already did that. I don't understand what is going on.

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Or you can get Firefox 3.6.16 here: <br />
