Why are the animated Gifs in Firefox 4 moving so slow and choppy?

When ever I try and look at an animated gif in firefox 4, well, it's just slow and choppy. I google searched and haven't found and remedies to the situation.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

    In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

    ''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
    Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
    '''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    * clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
    There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
    * Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
    * You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
    * "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

  • Why are the graphics/page in facebook suddenly smaller font and images? Is not happening in IE and screen resolution is correct.

    Why are the graphics/page in facebook suddenly smaller font and images? Is not happening in IE and screen resolution is correct.

    I heard back from Nike+ support and they said that there will be newer pics soon and it also appears that this corrected itself for my runs, but not the user pic, I only get girly options, I wouldn't mind a picture of a guy on 'ROIDS!!! Just kidding, but something less feminine or cartoon like, I'm trying to be serious about this and the site should reflect that.

  • Why are the songs downloaded from my computer grayed out and won't play?

    Why are the songs that I downloaded from my pc not playing on my iphone and grayed out?

    Hi sweatt,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    You may find these steps helpful for resolving the issue you're encountering:

  • Why are the animations so choppy?

    I just did an upgrade to Yosemite and the animations (like entering Mission Control) are quite choppy. I have a late 2013 rMBP with 16GB of RAM, 2.6GHz Quad Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M, and 1TB SSD. Mavericks had no issues and was always smooth. I have verified and repaired permissions. I also notice that it helps to disable the automatic graphic switching, but really, that shouldn't be necessary when it was fine before. Has anyone else experienced laggy/choppy animations on Yosemite? I'm hoping we'll see some bug fixes soon.

    I think is too much expensive as well. I do not know but i do not really think that movie developers control the prices. I think Apple control it. I see it fast same as video shops. They had not the prices from movie developers but they had their own prices (atleast in my country). But whatever, its not necessary to know who control the prices cause one (movie industry) or second (Apple) is stupid in this things.
    About 10years back i was registrated in some movie shop i payed about 1$ for movie for a day. Now when i find the prices its on 2$. Apple rental is 5$. Sorry, but in poor countries they rather get the film somewhere on the internet.
    If Apple reduce the prices i guess many people with Apple TV instead of get the film by non-legal way will rent the film for 1.5-2.5$. The movie developers, producers, actors, apple will get some money.
    For example if any movie will be about 2$ for a day. I will rent film every day. In one year they will get about 500$ (if i will not rent every single day) from me only. Now they got 0$ for a year for me because i do not really want to pay 5$ cause its really too much.

  • Why is the current version of Firefox is excruciatingly slow in displaying any words that have been typed in an email, etc...?

    For some reason, and it only happens when using Firefox- not Google Chrome or IE, when typing an email it takes several seconds before the words that I have typed appear in the body of the email. This is true in all of my email accounts. Also, when using any of my GoDaddy email accounts, I am not allowed to enter a subject. Again, this true ONLY when using Firefox (my regular browser!)

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Why are the movies I took on my iPad long and skinny with black edges when I import them into iMovie

    I took several short video clips on my iPad and when I imported them into iMovie they are long and skinny with black on both sides. My other movies from my camcorder fill the frame. How can I convert them to be full frame. They are .mov format from the iPad?

    From what you describe, you probably held your iPad vertically rather than horizontaly when you shot your movie.
    The picture in iMoive is a rectangle oriented horizontally, so it's showing your vertical movie as large as it can.
    If you cropped your vertical picture to fit the horizontal ratio of iMovie you'd have to cut off a lot of the picture.
    Soeone even made a mock PSA about this subject.

  • Why are the APN settings unavailable with 3.1.3 and 4.0?

    I have an officially unlocked iPhone 3GS. The APN settings menu was available for editing with pre 3.1.3 firmware but has disappeared with 3.1.3 and 4.0. I have spoken with Apple where I was told to restore the phone to defaults and start over, this didn't work. The Apple support papers distinctly say that the APN settings should be available for edit with an unlocked phone OR when the telephone provider allows it. As this is an unlocked phone the APN should be available. I use the phone with 2 SIM cards, 1 AT&T and 1 Telstra (Australia) card because of travel hence having the APN available is a great help. The 2 other phones in our family have suffered the same fate so this is obviously a firmware problem, not hardware.
    Any ideas on our to get the APN settings menu back?

    I am very interested in finding out about this - I am in Canada, and here Apple is selling a factory unlocked iPhone 3GS. I just posted this as a question... You can keep an eye on my thread also...
    =================================
    This summer, I was in east europe with my unlocked google nexus one, and was able to happily use local SIM cards - to enable 3G internet functionality, I just needed to configure APN settings as per carrier spec, and - voila, Internet etc...
    This whole experience has left me with the idea, that for a factory-unlocked phone to be Internet 3g functional, it needs the ability/menu choices to set up custom APN settings.
    Apple Canada is offering an iPhone 3GS (8gb) that is factory unlocked, but unless one is able to set/change APN settings, it's kind of useless for internet...
    Does anyone know - does the Canadian Factory Unlocked Apple iPhone 3GS have the APN settings menu? My own Rogers-locked iPhone 3GS does NOT have the ability to set APN settings... Is the ability to view/set APN settings controlled by the carrier (whose sim card I inserted into the iPhone?)??

  • Why are the songs in my itunes library playing at slow speeds?

    Why are the songs in my library playing at slower speeds? They sound likean old casette player with rundown batteries?

    What are your hardware specs?
    OS, version of iTunes, etc....
    Is this on a computer or iOS device?
    iPods can change the playback speeds, but in iTunes on desktop/laptop, it could be caused by other programs.

  • Why are animated GIFs in Firefox 11 slow? I downgraded to Firefox 10 and the animated GIFs suddenly play fine again, so I am positive that the update messed up the playback delay of animated GIFs somewhere.

    Self-explanatory. I am positive that the GIF I am viewing is faster than what it's supposed to be. I viewed the same animated GIF in another browser and it plays fine. It just plays slower in Firefox 11. I downgraded to Firefox 10 and the animated GIFs were fine again. I upgraded back to 11 and yet again the animated GIFs slowed down. This happens for all of my animated GIFs.
    I like viewing my animated GIFs, and since I don't have any problems yet with Firefox 10, I'll be sticking with it for a while...

    Yes I have exactly the same problem, and it has NOT been solved yet in Firefox 14. Please Mozilla, what is the use releasing more and more "major upgrades", Firefox 11, then 12, then 13, then 14 (one per month !) if you don't even care to fix the big problems ? That is just marketing crap, nothing more. You guys used to do amazing job, but the new policy is just unbearable, no offense meant : you need to react !

  • Animated gif is not moving in the FireFox 3.6.3 ?

    why animated gif is not moving in FireFox 3.6.3 ?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Same problem in save mode. An animated gif will not start. No offending plugins or themes are installed.
    But if I right-click on the animation and then on "Grafik-Info anzeigen" (maybe "show grafic info") then as soon as the info window starts the animation, it is also started in the browser!
    And this error does not happen on all machines. My Win7 64bit does it right. My XP 32bit (freshly updated) freezes the animation. Weird world.

  • I've just started using the App Tabs. I think this feature could be handy but why are the sites not updated when I start Firefox. Now I have to manually update the site which is somewhat of a downer. Does any of you know where I'm going wrong?

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

  • WHY ARE THE UK USERS PAYING MORE FOR THE CLOUD SERVICES????

    WHY ARE THE UK USERS PAYING MORE FOR THE CLOUD SERVICES????
    OR IS IT JUST LAZYINESS THAT YOU CHANGE THE DOLLAR SIGN FOR THE POUND?

    it obviously doesn't, but then again some people or organisation only care about price when it comes to purchasing their laptops, and it is hard to justify making a special model for a selected few.
    Sure everything can be done if there is a market for it, but Lenovo won't know how large the market is before hand, as such they are hedging a bet by not moving with the market (which Lenovo have done on many occasions). I guess the finanical return is not the worth the risk for Lenovo to keep the 4:3 or 16:10 screens.
    But this debate has been going back and forth for a long time, so no point bringing it up again and again.
