Why can i not fix firefox hanging and unresponsive using firefox troubleshooting methods

Hi
Every web page i open/use, Firefox hangs and becomes unresponsive. It does this 10 times or more while i am trying to browse. I have gone through every step in the troubleshooting issues one by one and several times. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox several times. I have checked CPU, RAM and every other three letters available.
It has hung, been unresponsive, and had white screen 15 times+ while i have been writing this.
I have had my computer taken away and looked at by computer techs, they say it is fine now. No viruses, relevant Malware and relevant security attached.
I use windows 7 premium. This has all just started in the past few months. Laptop is only 18 months old.

Have you tried to disable hardware acceleration?
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
'''If this didnt work, can you post what you have tried to fix this problem.

HT1414 Why can I not text or make and revive calls

Why can I not text or make and revive calls on my iPhone 4

Usually cuz its locked to a network other then the SIM's. Did you swap SIMs today? Or it's not seated properly. Take it out and reinsert carefully.

HT201269 why can I not get my photos and videos stored on my iphone to import to my new Ipad Air?

Why can I not get my photos and videos stored on my iPhone to import onto my new iPad Air ?

We don't know how to answer because we don't know what you are doing.
I can tell you that you cannot connect the two devices together to transfer content. And videos do not work in Photo Stream, but it does work for photos. However, you can only stream photos to the device after you have enabled photo stream on the iPad. Any photos that were already on the phone - before you turned on Photo Stream -will not sync to the iPad.
Look at this app for the videos.

Why can I not edit song titles and artists as I have in the past?

Do you mean by using the 'get info' function and editing the data there? What is happening instead of what used to happen?

Why can Apple NOT fix there stuff in AMERICA?!

I bought an iPhone 4S of apple.com. The same website a mass number of people go to to buy and look at the latest and greatest apple products. I got my phone and have had it for a little while and i broke the screen. I sent it in to apple for repair(i live no where close to a store) and after a week went by waiting on a respnose to my issue, i got online to che ck my status. It said my claim had been cancelled. No reson mentioned, no heads up, not so much as new shipping info for my phone to be returned. I had to call and see what was going on. The told me that because my phone came from Hong Kong that they could not repair it... REALLY!? I bought the device from your website but you cant fix it. If you're not going to fix you stuff then dont ship it from other freaking countries. They said they were not allowed to fix it and i would have to send it back to hong kong for repairs.... Has anyone else had this issue? I wasnt to file a complaint but cant, i want to get a phone that is shipped or made where ever they need them to be done so i can have it fixed here quicker. I WANT BETTER SERVICE!!! They gave me no info, and caused me to be without my work phone for another 2 weeks probably. Oh, and they shipped the phone back they required a signature for delivery. Not an issue usually, nice for extra security. But it has to be in person... I work hours that do not alow me be home to sign for it and they do not allow you to sign the card and leave it for the delivery. Souldnt they give you the choice to take that risk? Especially for an alread broke phone.I am not happy and this has been a crappy experiance that should not happen from a company with the "Apple" reputation. I hope an apple person reads this and gets back with me. I want to be calm and resolve this, ut every effort i have made has failed. BTW, If you dont fix stuff from Hong Kong, then where do the rest of your products come from? and why are they any different?

The manufacturing origin of the iPhone doesn't matter; all iPhones are built in China. The service goes by the country in which the iPhone was sold to the end user. If you purchased the iPhone from an authorized reseller in the US, then Apple should service it in the US.
You should be easily able to prove where you purchased the iPhone by the receipt. Call Apple tech support again, explain the situation, and if they still insist that the iPhone was sold in Hong Kong offer to fax them a copy of the receipt (or forward the email, if you have an email copy of the receipt). If you continue to have problems, ask to speak with someone in Customer Relations.
Regards.

When connecting to icloud, why can i not see my pictures and videos?

Is there not supposed to be an icon for my pictures?
I have my photostream on in my settings

PhotoStream is entirely for use as a method of easily sending photos you've added to or taken on one device onto all your others: it's purely a conduit and not accessible as a gallery.

Why can you not fix your mistake???

I am so upset and disappointed with Verizon customer service right now!!!!
I had an email about upgrading my son's device early for free to the iphone 5c 32gb. I tried to apply it online on Saturday, 8/23/14, around 9/10am. It would not work online and said that the offer could not be validated online. So, I chatted with an agent on the website (Judy) I believe her name was. I explained everything to her and what not, at the end, she told me that I would need to call Verizon. I called and was on hold on and off for about 30 minutes while the lady checked with her supervisor to put in the order, she asked me what color and checked to ensure it was in stock, she verified my home address as shipping, explained that I would have to pay the $30 activation fee on my next bill and told me that the phone would be shipped in 1-2 business days. Here today is Thursday and I had not received the phone. I call Verizon, the first time, someone hung up on me. The second time, I spoke to a guy and he "cold" transferred me to another person, where I had to explain everything again. She told me that I was supposed to accept terms and conditions and since I was already on the phone with her, that she could transfer me to some automated line where I could put my son's number in and follow prompts. When I put the number in, it went to activation of the line instead, I pressed the button for his phone number and it transferred me to someone else. This person, was very polite, just want to put that out there. She then explained to me that they stopped the promotion on Friday and that she could see in notes where I did speak to someone and that she went over the $30 activation and all that stuff even had the color of the phone on the notes and that she had a supervisor approval, BUT she didn't order the phone!!!!! So, the only option, based on the supervisor, was that they could graciously offer me an early upgrade for $99.99. So, I asked to be escalated to the supervisor. She informed me that it would be a 20 minute wait and that she would be in and out while I was waiting. The supervisor, believe his name was Richard, kept stating that he didn't understand how I could feel like they owe me anything because they show the promotion closed early and that all he could do was the $99.99. During our conversation, I had to repeat myself many times because he wanted to "make sure he understood me", He also explained to me that if he couldn't finish a sentence without being interrupted, that he would end the call (now mind you, been on the phone for an hour and a half, had not cussed YET, trying to be patient and hoping they would resolve this. He was a jerk. Not because he couldn't fix the problem, though I am not happy because of that, but the entire time, his voice was very cold, as if it did not matter to him whether I left and went to another cell phone carrier and it was more important for him to contradict me about one of the comments I made about being able to upgrade online, where he felt he needed to say that I could only upgrade early through calling them. I love Verizon service and coverage, but if you guys cannot fix this issue ( I did request to hear from his supervisor (which of course will take 24-48 hours), then I will go with someone who has worse coverage but will fix the problem when they are wrong!!!!!

Ok, so you are saying that it is okay to go thru the ordering process with someone and tell them the phone is in stock and give you one price but then not actually order the phone and not tell you, so you then have to call back and go thru 3 reps before anyone even tells you? Original end date for the promotion is tomorrow. When I spoke to the rep last Saturday she even told me the phones were in stock. Why should I have to pay a different price when I went thru the ordering process and was quoted at only having the $30 activation fee because they stopped something and didn't tell me and they have all of this in the notes!!

Why can you not have the same Siri voice used in the US version in the UK and Global search should be available

I have just recently purchased the new iPhone 4s and it is great.
I am now using Siri a lot,however I don’t like the fact that in the UK only the man's voice is available.
I think we should have a choice of a Lady / a man assistant and not just a man who's voice is the same/ very similar to the one used for voice control on the iPhone 4.
Now that we all know that Siri is useless without an internet connection then why only allow Siri to search for items, businesses, addresses etc only in the country you’re in i.e. the UK.
Where if you just go onto the internet or use the built in maps application you can search anything you self without restriction.
I think Apple should really consider thinkingabout this in there next software update for the iPhone 4s.

I have pinned Firefox 5.0 to my Windows 7 taskbar. Why can I not open Firefox from a "pinned" link?

I have Firefox 5.0 installed on Windows 7 Ultimate, and the Firefox 5.o icon pinned to the taskbar. With IE9, I can right click the icon, and any site that is in my "pinned" menu can open the browser. This doesn't work with Firefox 5.0. Why?

I would suggest using the Quick Launch instead with Firefox being one of the first so it shows on the task bar. No preloaded or anything just ready to use.

I think IE is a browser interface to Windows, Firefox is self-contained and runs on any system.

HT4623 Why can I not get the iPhoto and iMovie apps for free on my new iPad air

I have an iPhone 5 but just got an iPad air for Christmas. I didn't realize I set my iPad up under another Apple ID until my phone was not syncing with my iPad so I erased all content and reset the device to put them both on the same Apple ID. The problem I'm having now is the apps that are supposed to be free like iPhoto and iMovie are saying I have to pay 4.99 for them how do I fix this problem. Cause I did have them installed when I had it set up under the other Apple ID name :(
Thank you

Why can i not pull firefox up as my web browser

when i click the icon it want pull up and i just downloaded it

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.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device

Why can't notes just be synced and available on pc?

I have tried almost every conceivable way to have access to my notes I wrote on my iphone 4 but can't seem to get them over unless I email them individually. I tried setting up a Gmail but that came out worse. Would really REALLY like to have the date/time that is on each note to come up with it when I pull it up on my puter. What a headache! HELP!

I don't believe so.
DRM protection is included with all apps - paid and free, which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps.
You can contact iTunes customer support about transferring all apps from one iTunes account to another, but I wouldn't get my hopes up too much if I were you.

Why can I not install Firefox anymore using -ms?

I use to be able to install the downloaded versions of Mozilla Firefox using a simple switch on the command line. The switch was -ms. It worked great through, I think, version 24.0. No versions after that have worked. Is there a reason? It there an "easy" workaround? I've seen stuff that tells you create a config file and add it to the install. Surely there is an easier way? Anybody know something that will work? Appreciate any help with this.

Thank you so much!! This is exactly what I needed and is working.
Appreciate you taking the time to respond. :o)
