When starting Firefox 3.6.11 the CPU goes to 100%.
After upgrading from 3.6.10 to 3.6.11 I'm unable to start Firefox in a reasonable period of time (3 minutes). The CPU goes to 100% for one of my 4 cores, when left to its own, the Firefox window appears after 18 minutes 43 seconds. My CPU is a Q6700 (Quad 2.66Ghz).
How can I go back to 3.6.10??

After installing a new version of Firefox, I get the error message "The procedure entry point JS_GetOperationLimit could not be located in the dynamic link library js3250.dll" when I try to start firefox. Elsewhere in the forum a complete reinstall is suggested; however, I can't do that because of my company's IT policies. Is there any way to solve this problem WITHOUT a complete reinstall? Thank you!

It is possible that some files got broken with the latest update. -
When I start Firefox, I only get the background of my browser in the Firefox window. I the normal window for 1 second, but then it changes in only the background window. So without toolbar, or navigation. I already reinstalled it, but that doesn't fix the problem.
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Since the version 20.0 update when starting firefox I have frequently got the error message "firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs" This has not occurred with previous versions. If I click on the box "restore" and close firefox the problem reoccurs if I click close I lose the bookmark sidebar. I am so sick and tired of these frequent and buggy updates (every one since 17.0 have caused norton 360 to stop detecting tracking cookies for several weeks and or broken the norton toolbar) that I will uninstall firefox and switch to another browser if this does not change.

Hi,
You can try to install the latest version over the current one: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ -
when starting firefox, it flashes for one second on the screen and disappears.
Hey rsmccown,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox won't start] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.
Hopefully this helps! -
Downloading images used to go automatically to the last folder used to save images, even when reopening Firefox. In just the past few days, possibly coinciding wih the most recent updates, the folder defaults to the 'Downloads' folder. This is most annoying. What happened? Internet Explorer 8.0 did the same thing. This was one of the reasons why I started using Firefox to download all images. I went into Tools>Options and it only lets me set another folder. I dont want to set a specific folder I want it to always go to the last folder used. So what gives?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== possibly when the most recent updates were installed, a few days agoThanks jscher 2000. I guess I didn't make it clear. "It restarts with all the addons activated, and resumes with the tabs that were open before closing it." IE, it's running fine now with all the extensions activated. Everything is OK now.
So something in the Firefox code was causing the bad behavior. It's not essential that I find out what the problem was - I'm just curious. And if anybody else has this same problem, it might be nice to have it corrected at the source. -

When starting firefox, it takes a long and gives me an error message
When starting firefox, I wait a long time and then get the following message:
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595
If I press "stop script" several times, the web page will finally load. This does not happen with IE, but I hate IE.See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/761982

Is it possible to switch off all addons by default when starting firefox?
Firefox often runs quite slowly but resetting appears to solve the problem. I tried to identify any problmatic addon but was unsuccessful
'''''Is it possible to switch off all addons by default when starting firefox?'''''
Not really. You can start Firefox in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode?esab=a&s=Safe+Mode&r=1&as=s SafeMode], but you would need to restart Firefox to enable your addons. -
I can only get my bookmarks to appear in safe mode when starting firefox normally they do not appear
# Question
i can only get my bookmarks to appear in safe mode when starting firefox normally they do not appearExtensions can sometimes be the cause of problems. If the problem does not occur in Safe Mode, then you can disable your extensions one-by-one until you find out which one is causing the problem. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

When starting to install they stop the process and say encountered many problems try re installing
When starting to install they stop the process and say "encountered many problems try re installing" and system not modified
Try this:
1. Boot from your Panther Installer Disk. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
7. Once the formatting has completed quit DU to return to the installer. Proceed with the installation of Panther. -
FireFox CPU goes to 100% by backgroundshift
Sorry for my bad english..
Running a simple scrollroutine my cpu use is low :Hello,
if you have your note for a year or more and did not take it for an internal heatsink clean and essentials parts, yet.
One possible problem here is: Heatsink blocked with dust (CPU goes to 100% state svchost takes all resources)
90% of the high temperatures problems, unexpected shutdowns, 100%CPU all the time without running background processes, very hot keyboard area, freezing programs, are caused by the heatsink blocked with dust.
The normal temperature for the processor is between 55C and 79C. For the motherboard is around 55C~60C. When the heatsink is blocked those temperatures can reach 99C (processor) and around 80C (motherboard). Measure in Celsius degrees.
You can check it out how "hot" your Qosmio is.
Download the Everest ultimate 2006 edition V 3.50.761, look for it with Google search.
Run it and see the temperatures for CPU, Processor and motherboard on your Qosmio:
See:
http://www.rabayjr.com/vista/qosmioeverest.jpg
Run the System stability test (find it under tools menu) for 10 minutes aprox.
Watch the temperatures at taskar. If it reachs more than 92C for the processor on stress mode, its time to clean the heatsink and all essential parts of your Qosmio. Attempt to the processor fan RPM, too, if they run fast and noisy, you really must perform a clean.
But it depends on the ambient environment, for a 30C summer day the processor temperature almost get the 90C. this is normal in stress mode. And the fans run without noise. Slow RPM mode.
All measured in Celsius degrees, for Farenheith please convert it.
