I have gone to the page to update plugins. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/?utm_source=firefox-browser&utm_medium=firefox-browser&utm_campaign=plugincheck-update But nothing happens there. Something turns and turns next to the message: "Checking with Mozilla on the status of your plugins Loading Data", but it goes on forever. The problem is the old plugin is blocked so this is a nasty problem.

I have updated QuickTime to 7.7.6, but plugin check still shows 'vulnerable' version 7.6.9.
I tried a couple of times, uninstalled and re-installed QuickTime, rebooted computer, restarted Firefox. I note that Bugzilla has a record: Bug 1109774 - quicktime info in plugincheck to 7.7.6 which states "RESOLVED FIXED ". Maybe not?

Firefox is Blocking Flash and telling me that it's out of date and directs me to that Flash 11 vulnerability page. I'm running Flash 16, and when I checked for updates, it tells me I'm up to date. I upgraded from Firefox 34 to 35, and it didn't clear the condition. Flash is currently set to "Ask to activate" and the only available option Firefox will allow me to reset it to is "Never activate."
(Oh, and I took a screenshot of it, but it's not uploading.

Firefox will sometimes run fine for hours and if I watch the memory use in task manager, it normally uses 250 MB to 325 MD but then it starts to increase the memory use to anywhere from 2500 MB to even as high as 6000 MB and then it crashes. It seems to sometimes depend on what webpage I am on. I have also not been able to get Flash Player to install properly, it goes through the download and install process with no errors but when I look at the add-ons manager it doesn't show up.
I have done complete uninstalls and re-installs many times of both Firefox and Flash Player but it never does fix the problem.

Couldn't watch youtube videos, "Flash outdated", not, uninstalled all Adobe Flash. Youtube vid's took forever, now look good. Why?

For years I have been experiencing frustrating video watching on youtube especially. This was even at slowest speed setting. I have DSL. Not the world's fast, but it is DSL. Videos seemed like I was watching on dial-up. Today I went to watch a video and every video screen would claim that my Adobe Flash Player was not updated and posed a security threat. I tried every kind of Adobe update possible. When I finally got to what seemed like the right Adobe page to install the most up-to-date FlashPlayer, the installer froze up. I had to go into Task Manager and stop the download. Finally, fed up with the whole thing, Google, FlashPlayer, the internet in general, I said to heck with it and uninstalled FlashPlayer entirely. It had just been updated less than 2 months ago. Just for a drill, I went to youtube to try to watch the video I wanted to watch an hour ago, and guess what? It played better than any video I've watched on there in years, with NO FLASHPLAYER seemingly installed. I didn't even have to decrease the speed. It was in HD and I was still seeing smooth video. Now why would that be?

Hi, just recently my Firefox 35 has been crashing at launch even in safe mode on Mac Os X Mavericks 10.9.5 on a Mac Mini 2.3 Ghz Intel Core i5.
I have tried: - deleting firefox and mozilla folders in Application Support - deleting org.mozilla.firefox.plist - uninstalling flash - reinstalling the browser - downgrading to Firefox 34 and the crashes persist. I haven't had other problems with this computer.
can't use on screen arrows to advance pics on photobuckets, etc.
when trying to advance to another picture or video using right arrow on screen, screen goes blank. This has only recently happened.

Every time I log out of my university email, my private email which is also gmail, comes up with the remembered password there (but encrypted, not showing the letters/numbers). Can the university gain access through this to my private email password and account? I use Firefox for the university browsing and email as this was what was recommended by them to use. Many thanks!
How do I stop a recurring issue with fonts displaying incorrectly?

A while ago, I noticed that the fonts on some webpages all of a sudden turned thin and compressed, and many other fonts didn't display correctly. I tried all the usual stuff (restart the computer, clear the cache) and searched around with no solution, so I reset Firefox to its default settings.
This fixed it, but the issue returned later. It goes away every time I refresh Firefox (resetting it to its default settings), but seems to come back a week or so later. Lately, the time it takes for it to come back seems to be getting shorter. I refreshed Firefox last night, but it returned this morning. I refreshed again this morning and it came back this evening.
The problem is most noticeable on Facebook, which I've included some screenshots of. The top is how the fonts normally look, and the bottom is how they look once this problem occurs.

HI,
I am basically computer illiterate when it comes to trouble shooting. I have no clue what it means to check ram for errors or clear my chache or cookies. My Firefox keeps crashing at least every 2 minutes. It says I have the latest version installed. I just, unfortunately, need someone to tell me what to do like you were talking to a 5 year old. OH wait!...a 5 year old could fix my computer!! LOL I just need help. I do not want to use anything but firefox....Help!!! When It crashes a pop up appears and says it's a crash reporter and then my tabs restart when it goes away.
Thanks to anyone who can help. Mandy1965

After the initial setup of a sync account it seems to be impossible to change the sync direction.
I went to the trouble of cleaning up my bookmarks folder. Took a whole afternoon. After synching it in the hope of spreading the new order to my other devices I found that instead the pre-cleanup chaos had returned to my bookmarks.
Well done Mozilla!
Of course I have now disabled sync. Maybe I'll have enough patience to have another go at cleaning up the bookmarks folder sometime.

I've reset my homepage in Firefox/Tools/Options and saved it (google.com). However, Firefox continues to open to AOL email everytime.
I've uninstalled, then reinstalled Firefox twice. The problem persists.
Many youtube videos will not play in Firefox - I get the error message - "no video with supported format and MIME type found"
this is a recent problem - the videos play in Chrome and Explorer, but not in Firefox
