Why does Mozilla always shows (Not Responding)

When things stop moving, it will say Mozzilla (Not Responding) and then every thing stops. Sometimes if I wait I will get to move it some but in keeps coming up all the time. I've seen the reason for that listed before on Firefox a month or two ago but I kept putting it off because I was getting the Not Responding message again.

I see flowplayer playing this MP4 file.

  • Why does itunes always show my iphone as connected when it is not

    When I plug in one of our Apple devices to sync to our home computer, etc., iTunes shows the device I want to sync, but it also always shows my iphone as plugged in too. (At the top where it says Devices). Not a big deal, but is there a way to remove this instead of always hitting the eject button?

    Do you have wifi sync enabled for those devices?
    Select the device, click the Summary tab.
    If it is enabled, there's no need to eject the device, even with the cable plugged in.

  • Why does firefox hang or not respond when I am using disable third party cookies setting

    I have, by process of elimination, realized that when using the setting "allow third party cookies - 'never' ", causing my firefox to hang so much that I cannot use it. I have used that setting "allow third party cookies - 'never' ", for as long as it has been available. Over that last few months, I have been having problems with firefox hanging and getting the message "firefox not responding". It became very annoying, causing me to look for a solution. I read through the kb and tried many solutions. I can now say that when I change the cookie settting to "always" the problem goes away. It is helped only slightly by using the "from visited" setting. How can I fix this? I don't want all the cookies but I cannot surf with this problem constantly.

    The problem is that "third party" includes both related servers and advertising networks; the setting is too crude to accomplish the objective of blocking tracking cookies that you don't want.
    My compromise is to accept all third party cookies, but set cookie lifetime to "Keep until: I close Firefox." As a result, tracking is limited in time, even if during any given session I can be seen on different sites. (I also use the NoScript extension, so many ads driven by scripts never load.)

  • Why does my ipod touch not respond to my touch to slide open or shut off it off?

    I was playing on the ipod and it went totally dead and i charged it and now it wont let me slide it open or wont shut it off the slide doesnt slide ?

    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.

  • What is a Profile Mismatch and why does it always show up?

    b Question
    Every time I open a file I get a prompt which reads: Embedded Profile Mismatch.
    Embedded: Camera RGB Profile
    Working: Adobe RGB (1998)
    I always choose the default, which is the "embedded profile (instead of working space).
    I have no idea what any of this means. I know that it started doing this after I chose something recommended in a Photoshop book.
    Can someone please show me how to get rid of this prompt and point me in the direction of information that will help me choose the best profile?
    b Answer supplied by Richard Rose
    First the good news - your work flow is Color Managed.
    Now the bad news - You have no idea what that means, nor how you are achieving that desirable situation.
    You really need to start at the beginning and learn what color management is all about. For some reason lots of people get very confused and mislead trying to wrap their brains around the subject. It's really quite simple.
    There are many named "color spaces" in which to work in Photoshop. you have chosen Adobe RGB (1998). You chose that color space in Photoshop CS under "Color Settings."
    That's a good "general purpose" color space to use. It's very useful for workers preparing images intended for color reproduction in print (on a printing press). But it'll do for almost any use you have for your images. If your images are destined mostly for the Web, working in sRGB might be good. (I recommend just staying in Adobe RGB 1998)
    The "short answer" as to why Photoshop needs to work in some particular "color space" is that the program must "translate" colors from their source (a digital camera, a scanner, a a graphics program) into a destination (display on a computer monitor screen, a particular printer, output for printing press reproduction, etc).
    There are many compromises that take place in that translation process, and the requirements for all the possible conditions that must be satisfied (hue, saturation, how light or dark the image appears) cannot always be met. Something has to give somewhere.
    Named color spaces (Adobe RGB, sRGB, Color Match RGB, Ekta Space, etc) make a number of assumptions and decisions about how color translations (conversions) should be carried out before Photoshop ever gets its hands on the image, and makes it much easier for Photoshop to carry out the conversions and maintain accuracy in converting (for instance) from a digital camera's idea of an image to the needs of your computer monitor (so you can see an accurate resemblance of the image) to the needs of a printing press, so that the image looks correct in a magazine.
    The conversion process is carried out with the aid of "profiles." A profile is a set of data that is embedded in an image file that describes to any program that wants to read it, what the image data means in terms of color.
    Without the profile, your digital camera's RGB file simply contains arbitrary RGB values. Yes, a particular pixel with high R values will be reddish, and another pixel with high B values will be blue, but the actual red or blue of those pixels as they relate to the original scene is unknown. The camera profile embedded in your file lets Photoshop know, to a high level of accuracy, just what hue of red, and just how much saturation is present, and how light or dark the red was in the scene. The profile's coding of this information is based on a color measurement system called CIE which uses several different mathematical models to carry out some VERY complicated computations. There are CIE Lab models, CIE XYZ, and others. These models are as close to an "absolute" color reference system as we have.
    Thank God you are using camera files that actually have profiles! When you open such a file, Photoshop is "warning" you that the image information is in a color space other than the default Adobe RGB space. You told Photoshop to warn you about such "mismatch" when you set Color Management Policies in the Color Settings section.
    Photoshop is telling you that "something" needs to be done. It can honor the camera's color space, from it's own frame of reference (Adobe RGB 1998) and work on the image, accurately handling the color information for screen display and eventual output. That's what you tell it to do when you "accept" the embedded profile. That's not bad, everything will work correctly, because Photoshop will have made internal conversions that remain active as long as the file is open, but there is something you have to keep in mind - when you save the file, Photoshop will save the original camera profile with it. Then if you open the file again, the same "warning" will occur.
    That camera profile is as valid and useful as any other profile, but because it is not a commonly recognized color space may cause a problem in some other workflow. (Notice I said MAY. ICC color profiles SHOULD be ok in any program)
    It is probably better to choose "Convert to working profile" on opening the file. From that point on, nothing will appear different to you, because nothing has really changed. Photoshop will handle the file as it did before, internally converting the color information as necessary with regard to its working space. But when you save the file, the Adobe RGB 1998 profile will be embedded in it. If you re-open it, you will get no mismatch warning, and the file will be recognized by most other image handling programs as having a "standard" color space.

    Thanks! I still don't understand the concept of "saving power" in this context. Does that relate to a laptop running on battery, and some popups consume more battery power? Or does this refer to CPU capacity?  I have never had any issue that I know of in these areas. I would understand the warning if it cautioned me about insufficient bandwidth, but that doesn't seem to apply here. In any case, am glad to find that this is a feature and not a bug.

  • Why does iCal always show 12:00am when I print calendar?

    When I print a calendar month or email an event, the info shows a time of 12:00AM, as well as the actual correct time of appointment.  Can I change something in Preferences to rectify this problem?  Or what are other suggestions to fix this?

    Damon's post is correct, but you don't have to disable the Time Zone to get this to work. Just set the time zone there in addition to the clock app. (I had choosen a time zone in the clock app, but the Date & Time - Time Zone value was empty and I was 'losing' 3 hours.)
    Settings -> General -> Date & Time -> Time Zone -> (Enter/pick a city)
    It just works (now)!

    Mozilla shows NOT RESPONDING until it loads the pages completely, for FACEBOOK and checking EMAILS on yahoo and google.
    You can't do anything, you should just wait.

    I'm getting a similar error over here. Sporadically some sites won't load specifically in Safari; they open just fine in Opera, Firefox and Camino though. This is really annoying.
    It's pretty clear it's nothing network related…

  • Why does my edit button not show in Address Book?

    I have installed Lion on my laptop; however, I am not able to edit any Address Book entries. After doing some research, I have learned that I am missing the "Edit Button" that is supposed to appear on a contact that will enable editing.  My Edit button does not appear - I have only "Add Contact" and "Share" buttons.  Why does my edit button not appear?
    I have not noticed any other issues with Lion.
    Thanks!

    Try this:
    Select "Go" from the finder whilst holding down the Alt key and "Library will drop down in the list.
    Library/preferences/ and delete this :  com.apple.AddressBook.plist
    re-start your comp and it should work.
    This . plist will re-create itself when re resart all nice and clean and fresh.
    Should work, it does for most things.
    Good Luck

  • I get a message that Mozilla/Firefox is not responding. Why is this?

    Often when I try to go to another page, the screen freezes and the message pops up that Mozilla/Firefox is not responding. If I wait long enough the page loads.

    Greetings.
    # You could have too much software clogging your os.
    # You might have lacking system resources (ram, cpu etc)
    # You might have a malware, virus problems.
    # You might have add-on problems.
    Try using IE with the same loads you are using Firefox. It you get notable performance differences you then it is Firefox and you can get specific help on that.
    Cheers

  • Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on?

    Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on? First off they are not even pop ups....your crap blocks everything and don't save user names &/or passwords when you have it checked. Also in your tutorials about solving this issue says it has the word "OPTION" .......no, it never says option to allow you to bypass it and etc. Only thing is says is "ALLOW" . That would be nice , but the problem is it will not allow it from then on. It only allows it right then and then you have to refresh...after that to open again it blocks it again.....HOW STUPID?!!!!!
    It always say that this is preventing this page from automatically redirecting to another page. THIS IS WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO...GO TO ANOTHER PAGE........I DON'T NEED YOUr BROWSERS PERMISSION TO DO THAT. THAT IS WHAT A *%#$&*(&*%$$%% BROWSER IS FOR TO GO TO OTHER PAGES......THEY ARE NOT POP UPS!!!!!
    YOU STUPID BROWSER ACTUALLY BLOCKS EVERYTHING AND THAT SUX!!!
    HELP!!
