Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

video lags, 1 solution is build in flash plugin like in waterfox or chrome, its impossible for user to fix, my OS: Win 8.1 all worked fine in waterfox until update 35.0, it got memory leak after that, well it had small memory leak before, but after last update id got worse

i have tried meany things, & i'm not talking about YouTube, i'm talking about anime watching AuEngien & MP4Upload as 2 examples

i have 1sec or 2sec video freeze & then it speeds up to make even the 1sec - 2sec

I have Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.287 and its showing that its out of date. I downloaded the update but its still the same version. Adobe website is showing that my flash is up to date.

For some weeks now I have been having problems with both Firefox and Thunderbird. Neither will load. Sometimes I have been able to load once after a clean reinstall. I have tried: virus scanning and cleaning portable version on different computers (I use a portable version whenever possible but this has become an issue on static computers also) deletion of data folder

Just to rub salt in the wound, when the programs crash and I try to send a report, the error reporter says it is unable to send a report. Have not had time/patience to look into that.

Hello,

How to force firefox to use only one directory like opera 12.17 and older did ?

Opera keeps everything in one folder Below example from my pc C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\My Documents\Opera profil and cache of Opera: C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\My Documents\Opera\profile

Firefox use 3 directories

C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\Application Data\Mozilla C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\My Documents\Firefox

How to run firefox in 1 folder only: C:\Documents and Settings\internet1\My Documents\Firefox?

Cheers

So, I've been having this issue for sometime now. I went through all the help pages, read through all the different ones on Mozilla support and Adobe's official forums, and I haven't been able to stop it from crashing.

It started around a month ago, and I've just been trying to deal with it, but it has gotten to a ridiculous level of hanging. It almost never crashes, but it hangs indefinitely making me have to end it in the process area of the Windows Task Manager. It hangs when I open a new tab, when I'm mid-video, when I just leave it for too long, and randomly whenever it feels like it. And each time it looks different.

I also have some of my most recent crashes here if they are helpful:

So in the past 2-3 weeks Firefox has been really been frustrating to deal with on YouTube.

These are the issues I am having: - When in "My Subscriptions" and trying to hide videos from clicking the arrow in the top right corner, nothing happens. - Using the "Watch Later" button that appears in the lower right corner of the thumbnail does not work. - When in "Watch Later" list cannot rearrange videos by dragging on the three dots on the left of the video tab. - When in "Watch Later" list cannot remove videos by clicking the x in the top right corner of the video tab.

Yesterday only it worked for like a few minutes and then it was back to not working. Is anybody else experiencing these issues? In Chrome it works without a problem. I've been even considering moving to Chrome cause of this which I would hate to do. I thought the new update that came out today would fix this but nope, still nothing.

And on the side note: When will Firefox implement 60 FPS video playing on YouTube? Come on now Mozilla, you're slacking.

I am using Firefox 35.0.1 and I have installed Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.296. As soon as Flash starts, Firefox freezes and unfreezes until it can't be used at all. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the flash player and I have also used Firefox's Refresh option. This problem started a couple of days ago & I don't know what else I can do.

this is what comes up in the error message i keep getting. I have searched for this but can't find it in my machine anywhere:

C:\Users\John\AppData\Local\browser extensions\client.exe

After Microsoft did an update (image attached) the display of many small fonts is nasty (image attached). I see it in no other programs including IE. Not all fonts are bad, just some small ones. Everything on your page here looks fine.

Thanks,

Chris

Hello everyone, sorry for the long post.

For the last 3 days, I have been experiencing a very frustrating issue with videos posted ONLY on Facebook.

Every time I try to open a Facebook video, the Facebook player opens (the one where you can see comments and likes on the right side), and Firefox gives the impression that the video is loading. But after a while, a 'cross' appears in the middle of the screen, below which 'No video with supported format and MIME type found' is written [Kindly refer to the attached screenshot].

Prior to this problem, I had NEVER, in 2 years, experienced any issue whatsoever with playing ANY videos on the Web. Firefox just suddenly decided to stop playing Facebook videos.

WHAT I ALREADY TRIED: - Reload video pages and play them again (FAILED) - Clear cache, cookies and restart Firefox (FAILED) - Start Firefox in Safe Mode (FAILED) - Uninstall Flash Player, try to play videos with the default Firefox player (any video on the Web would play, but Facebook videos FAILED) - Enable the Open H264 Cisco codec (FAILED) - Changing a few values in about:config *(such as media.directshow.enabled) to true/false (FAILED) - Refresh Firefox from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings (FAILED)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: - I use Firefox 35.0.1 and have no other browser (besides the default Internet Explorer 6 which I never use) - I use Windows XP SP3 Professional - I have not downloaded/installed any software/extension/add-on which could have caused this problem

I still love Firefox, and have no intention of migrating to a competitor's browser, which is why I hope a prompt solution shall be found. As well, I am not considering dropping XP SP3 anytime soon; it is very stable and fulfills my requirements.

Thanking you for your time.

This morning I updated to Firefox 36. All seems well on certain pages, but I am noticing periodic long lags as some of my own websites load. I have done the "reset firefox" and went through the whole process retaining only my permissions.sqlite and cookies.sqlite. Then I began the re-adding of the three extensions I have:

Expire History By Days

Firebug

Places Maintenance

When I had "rebuilt" everything I tried the same trying again and kept finding the same lag. I do delete cache (only) on exit. I have no malware or viruses on my box (it is also a server). With 35.01 I did not have this problem, but with 36 it remains. So I believe I have done everything necessary to make 36 correct, however the problem remains. On was with a YaBB bulletin board which loads in about a second in 35.01 but spins for several seconds before loading on 36. The other is a simple site for one of my clients which should load fast. I ran speed tests on both of these sites and they did not show anything unusual.

The Uri's in question are: http://www.wisearch.com/wcwcwboard/YaBB.pl (speed test a shows 891 microseconds) For me it "spun" for about 5+ seconds. and http://www.glytek.com/ (speed test shows 276 microseconds) Same Lag as above.

I got tired of this and did a reversion via windows restore on the two application data folders and the main program files Mozilla Firefox. Essentially, I am now back on 35.01 and unless something enlightening occurs I guess I am off the "update" boat.

It's too bad...I had been waiting for 36 and was downloading it before it was even showing up on the Mozilla Release Notes page (it is now showing up): https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/releases/

Any ideas?

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.

I Keeping getting this issue even restarting my computer, logging in and out of my profile and reinstalling the latest version of Firefox. I upgraded to the new profile yesterday and that's when the problem started.

Please Help

After the last Firefox update, lots of bookmarks disappeared, and I tried to restore a .jsonlz4 file. On the bookmarks manager window I choose the file, click on the Open button, the notice asking if I want to replace all the bookmarks comes up and I click the OK button.

I wait a while before using the browser again, but as soon as I click anywhere on it, it stops responding. I wait to see if it responds. Sometimes it does (but the same happens again) or a notice for a script comes up and I click on Stop the script. I try to uses the browser and the same happens. I always have to end the process on the window or with Windows Task Manager.

I restart Firefox and notice that many bookmarks are back, but far from being all. Some are also repeated, and others on other folders and many on a different order (!). Then I try to restore the bookmarks on safe mode, but always getting the same result.

What is wrong, and how can I restore the bookmarks, please?

The problem is stated above. So I can use version 35.0.1 without any problem. As soon as I update to Firefox 36, it simply won't open. By won't open I mean when I double click on the icon, it would register in the Task Manager with about 2.6k RAM usage then terminate itself right away.

Here is the spec: Windows 7 64-bits, Windows Firewall, Microsoft Essentials

Yes, I have tried all the solution offered on the forum and troubleshoot, and Yes I tried clean installation, and yes I did re-add Firefox to Firewall exception. The Version 36 just simply won't open. But when I revert it back to 35.0.1, it works perfectly fine.

Would really appreciate any solution.

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.

i have just figured out after searching, that it is not possible to change my email for my firefox sync. it is already a nightmare for me that nokia email provider just simply closes down my account which i use for EVERYTHING in my life... i have somany account to change the email in it, but firefox sync doesn't allow me to do that. i really don't want to lose any details of my mozilla settings, so will it be possible to keep it with a non-existing email? or is there a way to open a new account with a new email and merge my settings to it?

I have one webpage that times out as soon as I log into it. it is the job career site for my state. Other web services do not do this. I want to be able to use Mozilla
