Support Forum

So im having a issue here. I love the 3.6.28 Firefox version as its simple and fastest for my Slow PC. I though installed the new 12.0 version as FF decided not to support 3.6 anymore and was hugely disappointed with how slow it is. Anyway my issue: Ive disabled plugin container in 3.6 due to eating up my RAM. Settings: http://kb.mozillazine.org/images/Fx366-OOPP.PNG

Installed FF 12.0 and i now suddenly i see 2x plugin container running at the same time. When i disable it again the same way i did in v 3.6 I cant play my favourite game anymore as its all grey when the game launches. Its called Quakelive.com and is runned through the web. So i went back to v 3.6. Can i work around this somehow? I dont like having the plugin container eating my RAM. And the point it actually did work in the earlier version 3.6 it should work now? What i want is do disable plugin container and still be able to run flash, java etc just like the way i have in v 3.6. I hope someone has an idea. Thanks!

Just recently again, it said that i will be notified only once again before automatic upgrade to 11.0.

Obviously i have no intention to move into new version as they would not support what im doing currently with 3.6, so do i need to disable this forcefull update somewhere before it happens, or will i be able to cancel it once it happens?

Also, as im on this question, is there a way to disable these annoying "update now" popups?

I have Mac OS X 10.4 and Firefox 3.6.28. I keep getting this message when going to different sites. Most times the message disappears so quickly I do not have time to even click on the "allow" button. Sometimes I do click it, but still cannot get to the page! I read some other questions and answers re going to preferences, advanced, general, and clicking the third box under accessibility, regarding "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page". If I "uncheck" the box, the only thing that happens is I don't see the message any more. But it still will not load the page! Can anyone help?? Thank you!!

Today, I was notified to update my Adobe Flash to 11.3.300.257. I did, then I got another notification saying I had to update my Adobe Flash again. So I did again.

When I login to Gmail on Firefox, it opens up my Inbox for a few seconds, then Firefox stops responding. All of my tabs on Firefox gets affected, and eventually Firefox crashes.

I tried disabling Javascript and used Gmail in its basic HTML format, and it didn't crash. But when I re-enabled Javascript to have Gmail set back to its Standard format, Firefox crashes again.

Plus, whenever I don't use Gmail and Firefox is running fine, when I close Firefox, it closes fine but then I get a pop-up window stating that Firefox crashed and needs to send a report.

These problems just started today.

I installed firefox 16 on my laptop, before that I had version 15 and everything was just fine. after insalling the update, some problems came up. first, there is no homepage shown when I start firefox, even though I picked that in the options

second, my bookmarks-toolbar is not shown, I have to disable and enable the bookmark-toolbar to see my bookmarks, that is due every time I close firefox and open it again

third, it seems to me that pages load slower, every new page needs a few seconds to appear, using version 15 page loading was much faster

fourth, there never appears the adress of the internet-page I go to, it always just says "go to a website" so it is much harder to find out the adress of the site

fifth, when I go from one page to another, I can not go back but have to look for the site, for example when I look something up on google and pick a page to look at, to go back to my search results I have to start the search again

I hope there are some solutions for my problems

I have Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 and I was wondering if it support the newest version of Firefox and if it runs alright on there. I haven't been updating it since 3.6.28 because I really didn't like the look and my mom was having all sorts of issues with hers and Adobe. I have recently lost my Norton Toolbar that was on the top when the latest update for 3.6 came out. I'm planning on upgrading soon and wondered if it would work well on it. My moms comp her adobe keeps crashing on there and her browser sometimes doesn't want to reopen after being shut down.

It's really getting annoying. I admittedly have an older computer, but it all works fine for my purposes. I used to get periodic requests from my automatic settings, or from microsoft or firefox or whomever, to update this or that. I'd click and download the upgrade, and life went on. Now I get repeated and unwanted reminders to upgrade my flash player or my firefox system, and I don't need to or want to, in my opinion. And I would like the notices to stop already.

My kids were messing with my computer and must have pushed something and everything disappeared. I need to know how to put an address bar (back button, refresh, ect) back up into the top of my window. Part of the problem is that my computer screen is cracked and I can't see anything in my menu easily. A command that would restore the address bar would help. Thanks.

This box pop ups every time I try to type question in Firefox or Safari or Mac mail.

I went to applications/utilities/javascript (different ones) and I can not find OPTIONS. Do you have a clue to this issue? Thanks

I use Windows 7. I like my Extensions and I'm afraid of losing them in the upgrade. Is there a list of Extensions that I will lose? What alternatives are there for the Google Toolbar? Help.

For whatever reason, Plugincontainer.exe is not starting up at all. Why is it not showing up? I'm pretty sure that my build of Firefox should have it, since it's been a feature for a good while. This is getting annoying because without it, my browser crashes far more often.

Everytime I open Firefox I get two tabs starting. One is my regular homepage and the other is https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/. I fixed the one plug in I wanted to fix but now I can't get rid of the plugincheck tab. The "Automatically check for updates" is disabled in the Tools-options-advanced-updates section of FFox but the extra tab persists.

Yesterday I could download anything and the speed would be the usual which is 125 kbs/sec to 250 kbs/sec. Now is is getting no higher than 17kbs/sec. I have tried running virus scans, malware scans, doing a disk clean, and even cleaned my pc 2 times. The only I haven't tried was doing a system restore. WHen checking the forums at downloadhelper website they said that the slow download is linked to firefox, not them.

I prefer firefox to Internet Explorer 9 but IE lets roboforms6 work whereas ff does not. I have a lifetime paid for subscription to robo and do not like version 7. Unless ff sorts this out I will have to stop using ff.
