Why do I get "unresponsive script" on facebook and gmail? How do I fix it?

The error message that comes up tells me that I can stop the script.
When I click on this, it goes away but then comes back.
It is making Firefox REALLY slow!

''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''Please create a screenshot of the problem you're seeing by following the guide mentioned at [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]].
Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

  • Installed Trend Micro Titanium and now some sites look scrambled, facebook and espn, how do I fix this?

    Called Trend Micro and said it was Firefox's problem. I am sure that is bull, but can I fix this? I uninstalled Trend and was still having the problem.

    Can you attach a screenshot?

  • I keep getting "Unresponsive Script" errors in random "jsm" files several times a day. Why?

    Several times a day I get "Unresponsive Script" popups as I browse the internet. They're almost always different. Sometimes its in tabbrowser, sometimes it has something to do with a YouTube page I have open, and sometimes it occurs when I try to save a file with the built-in download manager.
    I don't know why it does this so often. I don't have many Addons.
    I also copied the technical information about my browser to help out if it can identify why these Unresponsive Script Errors keep appearing.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")<br />

  • Why do I get a "script error" message from Adobe flash player?  It is installed as a part of my browser.IE 11

    Why do I get a "script error"  from flash player when it is not installed separately?  It is part of my browser--IE 11

    Same error message, I disabled tab mix and made sure I only have the newest version of Java, restarted firefox, now it seems to be fine no error yet on Pogo games or pictures upload to ebay which were the biggest problems besides hanging. I had also had disabled AVG secure search yesterday but that did not solve the issue. Now I will try to add back in AVG search...I have very few adds ons, also the note embedded about re- installing a toolbar went away, my old one did not work with FF4, so I installed Yahoo toolbar but the message still did not go away until I applied this fix. Hopes this helps someone..

  • When using my Gmail account, I often (many times a day) get "Unresponsive Script" errors.

    when using my Gmail account I often (many times daily) get "Unresponsive Script" errors. I have to hit "CONTINUE" button to continue.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    You can try to reset Firefox and create a new profile.

  • Still getting "unresponsive script"

    I have changed the value of dom.max_script_run_time to 1000 and *still* I get "unresponsive script" notices.
    The only time it ever happens is when I am downloading something, and take a moment to create a new folder to hold the new item.
    Then, because there are now 2 dialogs wanting a response (the save box, and the 'unresponsive script' box) Firefox locks up and I cannot click either of the buttons.
    So then I have to do a Force Quit and reopen Firefox.
    Even with a value of 1000 (seconds?) it always interrupts at about the same time as the default value.
    All the Firefox KB suggests is that if changing the value doesn't help, then set it back to the original value - while giving no further suggestions as to how to prevent it happening again.

    I've been using the file picker for years without problem - it's annoying to have that feature whipped out from under me.
    What other application is there that won't give you time to create a folder on the fly?
    The suggestion to create folders first is a *backwards* step. Sure, it's the only practical answer in the meantime, but I'd already figured that out.
    Does no-one have an answer for killing that warning?

    If you must. You can open a new iTunes Store account in the country you are from. In iTunes scroll down and change the country flag icon to your country and registry. If you don't have a credit card from your home country you can use gift cards instead.

  • Why do I get a permanent wait icon and Basic C notice on the task bar on my XP when I burn disks using iTunes?

    Why do I get a permanent wait icon and Basic C notice on the task bar on my XP when I burn disks using iTunes? How do I get rid of the wait icon when I leave iTunes?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • I uploaded the giftcard money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

    Hi chrisd,
    I see that you just purchased an Acrobat Pro subscription. Where you prompted to activate Acrobat when you launched it? When you launch Acrobat, you should see an option to License this Software. Your Adobe ID and password serve as activation credentials. Once you enter those, you should be able to use Acrobat.
    If you're still having trouble, please let us know (it may be that your order is still processing).
    Best,
    Sara

    Hi,
    Depends.
    Is it some sort of Incoming Override you have or their Outgoing IM Style ?
    Go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Alerts
    Select Message Received in the top item/Drop down.
    When selected check that the Apple Script option is Not On
    If it is is the AppleScript Selected the Mix Message Case one ?
    This is iChat 5 only (this particular AppleScript)
    If the Buddy has it set against Send Message they Output Mixed Case IMs so it could be from the other end.

    I am trying to burn an iDVD, but get message menu contains no buttons. How do I fix this issue?

    That essentially means that there's been no videos or slideshows added to the project as each of those items will create a button to play.  What have you added to the project?
