  • Why does my firefox crash when I'm in the middle of writing an e-mail, and how do I stop it from happening?

    It just did it again! How can I write a simple letter if you keep crashing on me? I'm getting very irritated by this.

    Please provide some Crash Report ID's.

    # We'll see if we can help you figure out what is causing those crashes to happen.
    If you can't open Firefox or keep it open long enough to get the Crash Report ID's, even in the Firefox Safe Mode - see the section entitled - '''''You can't open Firefox because it crashes at startup even in Safe Mode:'''''.

  • Why does Mozilla Firefox use Google as their web search if Google stores everything we search?

    Why does Mozilla Firefox use Google as their search engine if Google stores everything you search and track what you do online? I've got nothing against Firefox, I'm just wondering why.

    I just figured they wouldn't have since they don't track what people do. I figured they were against that.

  • Why does my Shockwave Flash Player stop working on Firefox 27

    Windows 7
    Firefox 27

    Note that you shouldn't confuse the Shockwave Flash plugin and the Shockwave for Director plugin as that are plugin for different content.
    Does the Adobe test page still work?

    Note that you can get a possibly colored Lego icon on the left end of the location bar that indicates that Firefox is blocking a plugin.

  • Why does Mozilla Firefox have lots of cool Themes (full) but only a limited few work on my version of Firefox?

    Just want more themes, the cool ones,please. Is it possible?

    Themes are created by 3rd party developers, not by Firefox. Due to unfamiliarity with the new UI and a lot of dissatisfaction with the new UI which makes creating a full theme harder, a lot of developers haven't updated their themes for Firefox 29 and later versions, or have quit doing themes.

  • Why does mozilla firefox randomly launch by its self in windows 7

    When the PC is idle Mozilla Firefox suddenly opens with me clicking on anything. The operating system is Windows 7

    Are web pages opened when this happens?
    Does this also happen when you set another browser as the default browser or is the other browser that is set as default browser opened instead?

    It hasnt really caused any concern but I would rather sort it out than leave it thanks anyone got an answer please help!

    I had the same type of failure. It was caused by a FF upgrade from V4 to V9.1. Dearing 1955 did not say what version caused the problem. My USB ports started acting up. I could not install the Webcam that was installed before. The HP Scanner of my OJ 8500 stopped working (USB). Did get it to work via Wireless. Removing FF did not clear the problem. Believe I have infected USB driver now.

    I believe you could be right there but Im not sure because it worked fine like 2 days ago, I did however manage to fix it by doing a system restore to about week ago it seemed to clear it up, the only thing that I have installed since then was a Quicktime update, so I believe that chances are something happened while downloading and installing it that may have messed adobe up.
    What I noticed was that Premiere had completley stoped conforming other videos, randomly quit working once I hit the play button or it would just hang up when I pressed play.
    I have no clue what the issue was but I do know that System restore saved me from having a nirvous breakdown

  • My iPhone just randomly stopped working

    Hi everyone, was wondering if anyone has been having this problem.
    What happened was, when i was listening to music on my iStation at home the music randomly stopped, i thought i maybe the iStation stopped working but it turned out that my iPhone had stopped working. I tried to turn the iPhone back on but it didn't work.
    After freaking out for about twenty minutes the screen turned on. It was the screen that appears the first time the iPhone is turned on saying to connect it to iTunes. I did this and restored it and it's working now but i lost many new contacts and many important calender dates.
    Just wanted to know if this has happened to anyone else and if i should be worried that it will do it again.
    Thanks

    I suggest subscribing to mobile me because when you enter a new contact or calendar event it automatically goes to the mobile me server and when you do have to restore your phone those contacts come back as soon as you enter your mobile me information. That was great when I upgraded to the IP4 because until I got home I had all my contacts on my phone without syncing to my computer.
