I depend on Group Tabs and if/when FireFox crashes sometimes sessionstore.js gets corrupted. I regularly archive copies of that file so I can recover. In one of the latest versions (after 11/8/2014) it appears that you have either changed the method or hidden sessionstore.js somewhere other than on my C:/ drive. it is no longer "findable" with "show hidden files" turned on

1. Will you tell me/us where it is now located or 2. Tell me/us how to recover our sessions

hi about 2 days ago ff stopped working. i type an address into the usual window like i've done a million times, hit enter, and nothing happens. i click on a bookmark, the url shows up in the address window, but nothing happens. there are maybe 3 bookmarks that still work, and all the rest are duds. auto-complete still works, but firefox refuses to take to the address. i get a lot of "flash crashes" (thanks, adobe) so i recently updated flash, and that started the problem. this is why i distrust updates. (for the record, i keep current with firefox updates, even though it is still bloatware that uses 2 GB just to run 3 windows. anyway, any help you could offer would be most... helpful! (not sure why my exclamation points are printing as open-brackets, but hey, whatever, that's the internet) thanks, tim

I know there is another post about this, but the user didn't give too much information, and the "solution" does nothing to help.

I had bunch of tabs open, which I normally do on Firefox without issue, and Firefox automatically updated itself. Shortly after, Firefox crashed while I was trying to access another web page.

Since then, it will constantly crash. If I restart and restore all my tabs, it will normally crash as soon as I try to use a new tab or type in my old ones. If I leave it alone for a while it seems to work for a matter of minutes before crashing again.

I even reset Firefox, but that did nothing for me. It just seems like it wants to crash no matter what I try.

I had just put Firefox as my default web browser (as I had it this way before, but switched to Chrome when too many problems were occurring from a previous update). I had to go right back to Chrome. While I like to keep all my browsers updated, this is simply ridiculous. I have never crashed so many times from doing what a browser is meant to do.

Anyway I can downgrade back to just version 33.0.0 until another version comes out?

I hope to get some direction with FF crashes, I am getting between 10 & 20 crashes per month. Just recently it's gone crazy. I never get any response from crash reports submitted???

After the second-to-last update, I started noticing an increase in browser crashes. The issue is always that the Plugin-Container has stopped working. I understand that the plugin container's function is to prevent such problems, but it does not appear to be working. I have the latest version of Firefox, updates, etc, but that doesn't seem to be helping. Crash reports have been sent to Mozilla, but the problem is ongoing. I use my browser heavily in both standard and incognito mode for business. I've used Firefox for a long time, but if I keep losing information mid-process, I'm going to have to consider other options. If anyone has any experience with the problem or suggestions on a possible solution, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Nomenica

Well, it looks that I may have found out the answer to my question by submitting this question. One has to ask a question, then choose the not-satisfied with answers found option, then go through all the steps to "create an account" in order get registered for Support and to get one's question answered. Seems like a tedious way to sign up for Mozilla tech support, but there it is.

Viewing History list by Date and Site displays a list categorized as Today; Yesterday; Last 7 days (I have no "last month" section. Why ??) That is a very gross categorization Besides, it shows the sites alphabetically and not by date and time Really annoying FF !! (Mac OS Yosemite)

How come the syncing of Bookmarks destroys my bookmarks on my Desktop?

I need to restore the Bookmarks several times a day and a few moments/minutes/ hours later, the restore is gone.

This could not be the meaning of syncing bookmarks between various PC's / platforms?

Arne.

I just bought a new PC and transferred my Firefox Profile from an external drive to my new PC after downloading Firefox. Everything is fine (all my bookmarks and extensions are there), but Firefox will no longer save my passwords, nor were any "saved" from my old profile. I can sign into websites, but no "save password" prompt appears on the page. I'm not in Private Browsing mode. I restarted FF in safe mode and turned off hardware acceleration and still no save prompt.

I am in Canada and have been using firefox without issue for years. After the recent update to firefox when I try to do a search using the firefox search bar, I only get results now from google japan. If I change to yahoo or others I get english search results. However when switching back to google I get japanese search results again. If I go to google.com directly I get english search results like normal. HELP!!!!!! Why is this happening now after all these years????????

Hi,

I accidentally cleared my Firefox history (using a third party tool) and i wanted to re-sync my history from the web, but it seems like it didn't happen..

I even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox again, but to no avail (i think some settings where not deleted during the uninstall process).

Can someone tell me how i can re-sync my Firefox history from the web?

thanks, Aurelian

I read the previous thread about this problem under FF 32 but wasn't able to respond there, so I'm starting a new thread.

I have had this problem for some time, back under FF 32. I even downloaded and reinstalled FF and when that didn't work, did the reset procedure. The update to 33.1.1 hasn't helped.

I'm running OS X 10.6.8 and Apple Mail v. 4.6. I keep FF open on my desktop after starting it. Usually it works OK when first started but then stops opening links or becomes erratic, sometimes opening them and sometimes not.

Any help/suggestions/news about this issue will be much appreciated.

I can't see some things on my screen, like: - horizontal and verticle lines on my email (Horde @ Uniserve) - check boxes on my email landing page - Google Doodles - Facebook stickers, to send or sent to me - Facebook emoticons, to send or sent to me. + on some pages optional boxes are missing so have to move my cursor around to find the links.

I had about 20-30 tabs open, but that has never been an issue. Firefox was slow to load an active page, and suggested restore. I clicked restore and tried to reopen firefox. the main page came up and then crashed. I tried again and it crashed again. I opened in safe mode, and it crashed. I uninstalled from the app folder, opened opera to download and reinstall, and it still crashed. That was two days ago. I cleaned everything off the computer related to firefox in the spotlight search, and uninstalled and reinstalled. It opened for a little longer, and crashed again.

Hello everyone,

when I watch a high quality stream (for example on twitch.tv), Firefox is really slowing. It can take 10 seconds just to open a new tab (or to switch to an already open one) and sometimes Firefox hangs for 30 secs.

I can watch the same stream on Chrome at the same time without any problem...

I allready reset all the settings of firefox to default (with about:support) , but it didn't change anything. My processor is not used that much, neither is my graphic card...

What can I do ?

I am using Firefox 33.1.1 with windows 7. Flash, Java and graphic driver are up to date.

Ok, so whilst using Firefox, lately adobe flash player has been crashing upon opening a YouTube video. This could be when i click a video and the new page opens and freezes, or when I actually get to the video but it then crashes. Alongside this, sometimes the videos are delayed to start, as in the video starts bufferng but doesn't actually start playing until later.

I've tried many proposed solutions but none seem to have worked

(Tried: New profile Clean Install Clear cache,cookies, etc.. Disable plugins Addons (video without flash, etc...) Protected mode (for FF and Flash) Virus scans (had nothing bad that was scanned) Disable/ Enable hardware acceleration Updating Flash (i'm using the latest version... 15.0.0.233)

Alongside this, i've tried using Chrome which also gives similar results, crash, hanging or the video delay at the start.

What could be wrong?

Heres a crash report i submitted (the latest one)

When I'm using Google+ Hangouts, after a while the window starts glitching out. When I mouse over anything clickable the chat scrolls up by itself, the chat box moves halfway up the window and the video/webcam area goes half black/white then it all goes back to normal a split second later. This keeps happening until I refresh, but then it starts happening again. http://i7.minus.com/iFkcflNZvwmx5.png That's a screenshot of how it looks.

Nothing I've tried has solved it. I've reset firefox, re-installed, created new profiles, restarted my computer, all my drivers are up to date, my memory and cpu usage is minimal. Everything else works fine it's just this that doesn't.

The problem I've been experiencing is, as usual, a peculiar one. Since I upgraded to Version 33, most websites work fine whilst others take several minutes to load, during which the browser freezes but not in the manner that indicates a crash; more like loading a page is so slow it backs up the whole application. I had this issue as well on earlier versions, but they were nowhere this severe.

Though I can't identify the cause because no crash report is created, I've identified the problem happening (so far) on the following sites:

http://www.hmv.com

http://www.play.com

http://www.gamestop.co.uk

Particularly in this Holiday season this is a problem, because if people can't use Firefox without it having a nervous breakdown, then there's something wrong with the version.

P.S.: I couldn't add Troubleshooting Information due to a bug with downloading the plugin (probably a broken link)
