Why does Firefox beta4 keep google searching and freeze?

Whenever I click google from my firefox beta4 page Google does the search and then keeps loading and never completes. It allows nothing else to be done except close the window.

Yes, all other web pages that I visit including my bookmarks load with no issues.

Why does Firefox redirect my Google search bar queries to the Google homepage?

Whenever I type a query on the search bar (set to Google), the browser would load the results - then a second later, it redirects the results page to the Google homepage.
How can I prevent this from happening? I would like the results page to stay, as per normal :(

OK, it's the OptimizeGoogle extension. Disabled, and it subsides.
But I never had this problem as recently as last week, even with that extension enabled.

Why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool?

why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool? It has never done this before last night. It filles the Whole lasso seleted box with (what it almost looks like) black and white caution lines. then when I go to zoom out, my zoom option starts to mess up where you cant click and move your mouse to zoom in/out with ease but where you have to click to zoom out (many times).
Can ANYONE help me?

I am using CS5, WIndows 7, I am not sure how to tell if my drivers are up to, and I am more than happy to screen shot it.

Why does my sound keep cutting in and out?

Why does my sound keep cutting in and out?

Yeah Kase12 I was just wondering if you ever figured out what was making this happen...I have tried replacing all the cables and it still does it...Every couple minutes the sound will cut out for a few seconds then come back on and it might be 30 miniutes before it does it again or it might do every 4 minutes theres no pattern to it
.If you figured it out could you please shoot me an email at [email protected] thanks

Why does my ipad keep losing connection and kicking me out of apps?

Why does my ipad keep dropping apps while I am using them like facebook and facetime. It just disconnects and goes to the home screen. Very frustrating!

I have a MacBookPro...my wife has iPad2...and I do nothing with her iPad...
let me ask a dumb question reading here. She plays a lot of Scrabble or word games...goes on Facebook, and has been complaining to me about the games crashing, bringing her sometimes back to the home page.
We followed one piece of advice given here...to hold the start and home buttons simultaneously and reboot. This may work...we'll see.
But...on the advice concerning the apps. When she holds down an App...they vibrate or shake, which I guess is a way to move an app about...drag it. Saw no minus sign. I guess we assumed the app was "closed" sitting dormant on the home screen...and so I know or understand (she not so computer literate), an app sitting on the homescreen is not necessarily closed? Hitting home and bringing the desktop back up, is not necessarily closing out of the app?
thanks...

TS3694 Why does my ipod keeps powering off, and when I turned if on, I have to press down the power button and the screen button at the same time ???

Why does my ipod keeps powering off, when I have to turn it on ... I have to press on the power button and the screen button at the same time ??? over and over again. I just got this in December 2011 as a gift.

I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

Double tap Home button, delete Messages icon on multitask-bar (at the bottom).
then do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Why does Firefox try to launch Adobe and/or Quicktime when I close Firefox? What is it loading into those programs?

When I shut down Firefox, it tries to start Either Adobe Reader, Quicktime, or both. It has done this ever since the first time I installed an used version 4. The applications do not actually launch, as in a window opening, but they are then present as a process in the system, and I have to close them from the Task Manager. It usually launches just one, but, if it's trying to launch one, and I use Task Manager to close it, it then launches the other. If I hurry and stop that one, Firefox reports that it messed up, and wants me to keep using the Internet for its own purposes that have nothing to do with what I was using the Internet for. This never happened under previous versions of Firefox. Do I need to revert to a previous version? I'm running Kaspersky Internet Security, and it shows I have no malware or the like on my computer, which could cause this. So, why is Firefox trying to do things I did not ask it to, and then expecting me to let it phone home to tell about it when I stop it. By the way, out of good practice, I often close down my Internet connection before closing Firefox, (in case I do get something like a Key Logger loaded, to prevent it from sending its final report before the cache is cleared), but this also happens when I have not yet closed my Internet connection before closing Firefox, so I do not think that is the issue, nor should it be. Your question below about when it happens does not provide for the answer "Every time Firefox Closes", so I picked the closest such answer.

This can be caused by clearing the cookies via [[Clear Recent History]].<br />
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings
You can try to exclude the cookies to test that.<br />
You can let all cookies expire when you close Firefox to remove unwanted cookies and keep the ones with an allow exception.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the cookies when you close Firefox then Firefox also tries to clear the cookies from plugins like Flash and starts a plugin-container process for each plugin and possibly for each cookie (?) and that can add extra time if there are a lot of cookies to remove and also can cause an unresponsive script error to appear.

Why does my Ipad keep going black and then back to the apple logo. It eventually goes to the start page but then blacks out again. I have already rebooted several times with no luck!!

Why does my Ipad 2 keep going black ahd back to the apple logo. It eventually goes to the home screen and allows me to try something else but after about 30 seconds it happens again. I have already rebooted several times?

Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

HT201210 why does my phone keeps turning on and off by itself ?

Hi, my phone is been acting weird. My phone keeps turning on and off by itself and it frezzes. What should i do ?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Why does Firefox not open my windows and tabs from last time until I have tried starting 3 or 4 times?

I have this problem with opening Firefox:
My Startup options are set to "When Firefox starts: Show my windows and tabs from last time"
However, each time I start Firefox, by clicking the icon in the Taskbar, it opens with a single blank tab.
I repeat this using "Open New Window" and when I have up to 3 windows, all with single blank tabs open, I close them all. Once more I use "Open New Window" which only then opens with my windows and tabs from last time.
Naturally, this induces initial panic each time, because I dread the thought of losing all my current tabs.
What is going on here?
How can I fix it?
< Firefox 27.0.1 with Windows 7 Home Premium.>

This started happening to me with the upgrade to v30. Previously, new windows did the proper thing of showing previous tabs/windows.
I have history on, not in private mode, and have cleared cache.

Why does my nano keep turning off and on when it is connected to my computer?

When i connect my nano to my computer the nano says that it is connected and nothing happens in Itunes. Then when the nano keeps turning off and on while it is plugged into my computer. What can i do to make itunes recognize my nano so i can add new music?

Please try the following:
Move System Configuration Files
(Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
Go to /Library/Preferences
Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

Why does Firefox beta keep connecting to 173.194.70.* (google), even when no tabs are open and all data reporting and the built in ggl. search is disabled?

I'm worried of google spying. Connections appear in OS Monitor as ESTABLISHED TCP4 connections on port 80, even in background.

Why does firefox have trouble scrolling up and down?

happens in facebook, google+, and even addon screen, and even this screen (the question form i am typing in right now)
when i try to scroll up or down it takes a second or so and then jumps, rather than scrolling

i am curious what autoscrolling does, no difference; the others were checked already
i think it has to do with the memory stack becoming too large, after much browsing, multiple tabs, etc.
it works ok, if it is recently opened with just a few tabs
what really worked for me was:
