Why is Firefox writing so much data all the time?

I am running Windows 7 x64 and Firefox 8. In my Task Manager I display the I/O Write Bytes of all processes. I have found that Firefox is ALWAYS the Process with the largest amount of write bytes after it has been running an hour or so even though there are dozens of other processes there. The only Web page is Google and all of my plugins are disabled.
Why is Firefox writing so much data all the time?

Firefox may be updating the phishing protection database or do maintenance with other files like places.sqlite. It should stop at some point if that has been done.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem.
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why does Firefox 23 keeps freezing briefly all the time?

    Firefox suddenly started freezing briefly for something like 3 seconds all the time when it updated to 23. It does it something like every 10 seconds. How do I stop the really annoying brief freezing?

    I had already tried disabling HWA before updating to 24 beta but it didn't make any difference. Still kept freezing. At least the problem appears to be fixed in 24 beta. I haven't yet had any more regular freezing problems after updating.

  • IPhone 5 using data all the time

    My husband has had his iPhone 5 for a couple of weeks.  We have Verizon 300 mb plan, as he is mainly just using it for calls and text.  But it is using data all the time!  Today our online Verizon account is showing 59 episodes of data usage.  They are small, but still, why are they there?  All he has done is call and text.  He would like to keep the cellular data on because he texts by talking to it.  He did not send anything close to 59 texts.n was not on the Internet.
    We have turned off practically everything.  Location services, stocks, weather, email, notifications for everything except text and calls.  Stopped it from sending data to Apple.  He has added only 4 apps- cam wow, talking bird, talking cat, and free cell solitaire.  Not signed in for iCloud or Facebook or anything.

    Is Digi a CDMA carrier? or is it GSM/UTMS?
    If CDMA, that's normal. The technology was not designed for data and calling.
    If its GSM, give them a call to seek resolution.

    I have iPhone 4s, after i updated my software to 7.0.4 my wifi stopped working. The wifi icon at the top is gone. Its annoying that i have to us my data all the time. I've tried the network reset, it didn't work. My phone works fine, just a lilttle bit slow before i upadated to 7.0.4. And now not only the wifi, the phone itself is slower than ever. I wish i didn't udgrade to iOs 7. There's too much problems. There's this one time that I can't send iMessage at all.

    Hi s.kouris,
    I'm afraid that unless you are able to contact the previous owner and have him wipe the device, or provide you with his Apple ID password so you can delete the iCloud account, you are out of luck.
    With iOS 7, an Activiation Lock was added to deter thieves. This lock prevents anyone but the owner of the device from deleting the iCloud account and restoring the device:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818
    Unless you are able to reach the original owner and get the device wiped or the iCloud account deleted, you are stuck with a brick.
    Sorry,

  • Why do I have to log in all the time into iCloud every time in spite of clicking the "keep me logged in" box?

    why do I have to log in all the time into iCloud every time in spite of clicking the "keep me logged in" box?

    It is amazing that Apple does nothing about this.  It used to work before but this function (keep me logged in) stopped working a couple of months ago.  Many people seem to have the same problem but Apple seems unable to solve their own problems...

  • Why Mail on Mavericks keeps Writing changes to disc all the time?

    I have updated my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to Mavericks and now my IMAP Gmail account on Mail is having a huge endless "Writing changes to disc" on +/- sometimes with up to 50.000 messages, almost freezing my computer all the time! My Inbox, only has aprox 50 messages, I always move mesages to other folders!
    Everything just worked fine on Mountain Lion and now my Mac is very slow because of this. Only if I close Mail than I have my Mac back... but I need to work with Mail open, so thats not an option.

    I have the same problem.  Since installing Mavericks I have a major issue with Apple Mail drastically slowing my whole system down.  As others have mentioned, basically Mail takes over the computer and I find myself looking at spinning beach balls for minutes at a time.
    From watching the Mail "Activity Window" (accessible from the "Window" menu item), I have discovered that several times a day it starts "Writing changes to disk" (see screenshot) for no apparent reason (it's not as if I have shifted any mailboxes); and that's the time when everything comes to a shuddering halt.  It takes a long time, about half an hour or so, to rewrite 27,000 messages (or some other ginormous number, it varies) to disk, and during that time I'm held up.   This problem never arose with Mountain Lion. 
    Basically it seems to me that Mail has been messed up in Mavericks, and Apple needs to fix it.
    It was suggested to me by the Apple "Support Advisor" that the fault may lie with Gmail, due to some changes Google have made.  But that sounds like it's a cop-out and anyway it's no excuse.  Here are two of the biggest companies in the world who are constantly talking with each other about many things.  If it's true (unlikely) Apple should be able to communicate with Gmail and get it sorted.

  • Firefox 9.0.1 crashes all the time, I just can't use it anymore. Would it be possible to propose the verion 8 for download ? Thanks

    Hi there,
    Firefox has been updated on my computer on the 8th of Jan. 2012. It started crashing yesterday, until I almost could not open any site at all. It seems to crash when there are some videos. For example, I watch TV on Zattoo.com, when I go on this site, Firefox crashes all the time especially when I open other windows.
    Now I would like to go back to the version 8, but I can not find this version for download. Where could I find it, or could you propose it on your web site ?
    Many thanks !

  • Why Lightroom keeps using 30% CPU power all the time?

    Hello all,
    I am relatively new to LIghtRoom.
    I started working on a new set of photos  (400 app.). I opened it as new directory.
    Since then, all the time I work on theses pictures Lightroom keeps using app. 30% of CPU time.
    The over all time I spent on these photos is estimated to be more then 30 hours (yes, I am slow and open each in Photoshop while Lightroom is still opened). So I guess Lightroom finished all the rendering it wished to do.
    My question is why and what it keeps calculating and is there a way to stop it?
    System configuration:
    Single core Intel Pentium 4 CPU, 3.6 GHz (Hyper Threading allowed)
    2 GB RAM
    NVidia 6600 based graphics card (256 MB)
    Both LightRoom 2.3 and PhotoShop CS4 are opened
    Please help - the system is slow anyway. It can realy use those extra CPU power.

    But I get a warning that changes I made to pictures in LR might not be
    visible in other applications. Dose this mean that when I send the picture
    to PhotoShop, or open the raw file later with bridge, all the editing inside
    LR will not show?
    The warning badge can be switched off from within View Options panel (Library module View menu) by unchecking  the option labelled Unsaved Metadata.
    With regard to your question as to whether Lr edits will show in Photoshop and Bridge/ACR - you'll be fine with Photoshop. However, for Lr edits to be visible in Bridge/ACR you will now have to manually save the metadata to each file (i.e. select file(s) then hit Cmd/Ctrl+S to save metadata to file).

    These are likely out-of-memory crashes where all available memory is used up.

  • How do I stop firefox from changing my language all the time?

    It keeps resetting my spellcheck to US English. I have to manually change it in the right click context menu of multi-line text boxes, every time.

    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    If you reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some of your data (bookmarks, passwords, cookies, form data) is automatically imported and your current profile will be moved to the desktop (Old Firefox Data).
    You can recover more data from the old profile (be cautious with doing that).

    Firefox had been "not responding" for the last few months. After a short time, it would respond.
    Lately, however, it is "not responding" and my entire computer needs to be restarted.
    Please help -- I am extremely frustrated.

  • Why does 'slide to answer' not work all the time on iPhone 4

    Hi all,
    I've have a iPhone 4 and I've always had this problem. I always keep my phone up to date. The issue is the 'slide to answer' button is incredibly unreliable causing me at times to miss calls because it doesn't work. Just now my phone was ringing and the 'slide to answer' was totally unresponsive until I pressed the home button, then I had to try sliding it a few times before it successfully answered.
    This last weekend my dad rang me and I couldn't answer the call; the 'slide to answer' button was happy to move precisely half way along before automatically springing back again even though I hadn't taken my finger off it.
    What's wrong with it?  Its not that long ago since I last restored my phone afresh and yet it's still a problem.
    Has anyone got any idea how to fix it?
    Thanks

    There are 3 things you can try.
    Hard reset -Hold home and power button until apple logo is displayed -Release let device reboot -test it out.
    If issue persists -go to Settings>gerneral>reset>reset all settings -test.
    Issue persisting still??
    Last but not least restore and setup as new, this will erase EVERYTHING make sure contacts/calendars are in the iCloud or synced in windows Contacts/Addressbook/outlook, or Addressbook on a mac, and Calendars in Outlook, or iCal
    make sure to transfer your purchases, in iTunes windows or mac - File at top left - Transfer purchases.
    Transfer photos via iPhoto, windows scanner camera wizard, or Windows Photo Gallery
    then follow  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

  • Why does my reminders app lock up all the time?

    I have an iPhone 4 with all the software updates. I have set some reminders and when I get reminded I go in to check them off and it will not let me. I have tried to delete the reminders and the app. I have closed out of the app, restarted my phone and turned completely off. Still I have a reminder from October that reminds me every Sunday and Thursday that I can not get to stop and can not delete. If any one has an idea to get rid of my reminders please help.

  • Firefox 4 .0.1 hangs all the time. Has to be Force Killed

    Firefox hangs almost every time I run it on my Mac Laptop running Mac OS X 10.6.7. I have to force kill it every time. I have disabled all add-ons and also switched from 64bits to 32bits but the problem has not gone away. I am using Safari more and more and I don't want to do that.
