I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I recently updated to Firefox 15.0.1, and I'm having a lot of trouble with it constantly freezing. This doesn't happen on any one website and is very random in occurrence. I have already tried running in safe mode and updated flash, and I'm still having the problem. After a few seconds, it may start responding again however, most of the time it continues to hang. In order to close Firefox when this happens, I have to open task manager and end the process because nothing in the browser responds. This has become very annoying, and I would appreciate any help I can get to solve the issue. Thanks!

UPDATE: I've noticed that the freezing seems to happen every time I check my email (Yahoo & Gmail), and when I'm on Pandora. It still occurs randomly at other times, but I noticed it's very consistent with these sites.

When trying to print in Firefox, and when scaling the page size in page setup, the first page prints correctly, but subsequent pages do not scale correctly and are too large for the paper, with parts of the text are being cut off at the top and right. This is not fixed by checking or un-checking the "ignore scaling/shrink to fit page width" in the print window, or by changing the scaling%.

I am running Firefox 15.0.1, on Mac OS 10.5.8.

The same problem happens in the print preview and if I save the print as a .pdf

I have tried all the fixes in the how to's and others in various forums with no improvement.

This happens every time I try to print a document scaled up or down only in Firefox.

When I transfer over my favorites from Internet Explorer, not all of the favorites transfer over. Is there a limit on the number that can be moved over to Firefox? I see all my favorites in the My Favorites file, and on favorites when I open IE, but only half of them transfer over. Is there a cause for this? It is the same on both my machines using Vista and 7. Thank you. Ron

The new JavaScript debugger in Firefox 15 closes immediately when I try to open it.

The Firefox application does not crash. Just the debugger.

Within a fraction of a second, the bottom of the screen shows and then closes a panel.

I tried disabling all extensions, but it didn't help.

I tried the "Reset Firefox" button, but it didn't help.

Issue is in Firefox 15.0.1 on Ubuntu Linux 12.04 on a Compaq Presario CQ62 that has an AMD processor.

My other Ubuntu 12.04 installation on a Macbook Pro does not have this issue.

I restarted my computer this morning, as it was running a bit slugglish. The restart initiated both a Firefox update and a Flash update to the latest versions. I've uninstalled Flash several times with the Flash uninstaller. I've even down-graded to 10.3. Same result. Firefox simply isn't recognizing the install and I'm unable to view any Flash content. On any page that requires it, the 'Install Missing Plugin' button appears. Whether it's 10.3 or the latest 11.4, it doesn't exist in the Add-ons manager. I've installed the latest real Player as well, in case it had something to do with the issue. No apparent connection. No issues with the installations themselves have been experienced - everything proceeds as expected.

Any ideas?

this is coming up on every one of my sites... facebook,yahoo, games on facebook ... so i tried to down load another mozilla firefox and it will not let me do so .. any suggestions?

I used to be able to press full screen and it would be fine and when I closed ff, upon restarting it would restart in full screen. Something has gliched. When I press full screen in regular size, the full screen isn't full, only about 90-95% of screen. I can make it go full screen if I click "maximize " and then full screen , but if at any time the screen isn't maximized, the same thing happens. If I close maximized and full screen it opens with the reduced full screen. I can't move or stretch it out in anything except normal screen, and again, not I click full screen from there. I never had this problem.

from a while i accepted by mistake on some certificate that allowed ads to be in every site i log on. The ads under the name (Ads not by this site). I tried the malware and the ordinary antivirus but nothing work. And i really want to get rid of it. thanks

Since 8/26/12 in one folder bookmarks and sub-folders either disappeared, were rearranged into other folders or "Unsorted Bookmarks", duplicated, old ones from older Netscape folders appeared in newer Mozilla folders, bookmarks and folders were duplicated but the bookmarks in them were either older ones from the past (see Netscape) or were deleted or all the above. The last Netscape folder (version 8) and the Mozilla one have flipped positions, (the latter used to be above the Netscape one). This occurs after every cold PC start. After several trouble shooting attempts it is now happening in all folders. I have to backup the bookmark file into a separate folder in My Documents as the regular backups all seem to be corrupted in the same way. I even purge the data in SYNC and that has done nothing to resolve this. I have deleted the old bookmarks from Netscape 6/7 and the problems still occurs. Deleting duplicates makes things worse. The Places Maintenance add on worked only 2 consecutive days; It is no longer effective. I have to restore the backup I have made each time I use Fire Fox after a cold start.

I just want to use copy/paste with my mouse. Why can't you make it just a toggle in Firefox? Why do I have to enter someone else's resume in my user.js file?? That makes even LESS sense.

For Firefox:

   Quit Firefox. If you have Quick Launch running (in Windows, an icon in the toolbar), quit that too.
   Find your Firefox profile directory.
   Open the user.js file from that directory in a text editor. If there's no user.js file, create one.
   Add these lines to user.js:

  [edit: removed personal information]

Note: The preference is site as well as protocol specific. For example:

user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.mozilla.org")

is not the same as:

user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "https://www.mozilla.org")

This is because the first uses HTTP while the second uses HTTPS.

If you want to allow multiple URLs to access the Paste operation, separate the URLs with a space. For example:

user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites",

"https://www.mozilla.org https://developer.mozilla.org")

I often use the shortcut Alt FWF to create new directories on Windows.

When FF 15 is set as default it alters the File New menu from Windows Explorer.

It inserts a "Firefox HTML document" item.

This item seems to sabotage the above key combination. It intercepts the last F.

In addition I object to the naming which is plain wrong, for me.

I have deleted the registry key that inserts this thing. Unfortunately it re-appears.

I want to stop this behaviour.

How do I kill this. (Other than by making another browser the default.)

I am running Firefox 15.0.1 on Windows 7 64-bit I have Java plugin version SE7 U7, which I reinstalled and confirmed is current. However, when the Java plugin (Java(TM) Platform SE 7 U7 10.7.2.11) is disabled, then I get message when checking my plugins, "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version". When I re-enable this plugin, the error message is not present. Thus it is misleading as the correct version is installed but disabled.

I have some sort of bug what underlines random words in a page, as it is a link. When you put your mouse on it it gives an add for Apple product. When you click it you will be redirected to a website. http://buyorbury.com/page/sur/sur-22/NL/winner-ipad.php?engsec=4

I want my TABS below the addres bar, there is no option for "tabs on top" anymore and I simply want them below the address bar. My y580 still has the tabs below but my asus g75vw has the tabs on top and the tabs on top" option is not there. WHat can I do?

I have FF 15.0.1 freshly installed on a new Win7-PC (home premium 64bit).

I have tried to install Adobe Flash from their site as well as through the automatically proposed add-on. Both claim it was "installed successfully". But when I check the addon-list, it's not there. Restarting firefox doesn't work.

I have some other plugins (pdf-reader) and extensions (ghostery, adblock) installed and they are working fine.

FF keeps me asking to install the plugin. I install it, and it's not there - asking me to install it. And so on. Could keep me busy for hours ;-(

Please help! Thanks :)

PDF files not downloaded or displayed i Firefox in version 15.0.1. A white blank page is just displayed. This is reported back to me from many users and not just on my computer.

I have my bookmarks set as a fixed sidebar. In versions 2.0 and 3.0, when I open the tabs they would start to the right of the bookmarks sidebar. Now with v15.0 I see that it forces the bookmark sidebar down, and places a tab right above it. I've tried the about:config settings on Tabs and bookmarks with no luck. All I want is to have the behavior just like it was in 2.0. That is, the bookmark sidemark is fixed and the tabs bar beginning at the right of it. I can see where the developers thought it would make sense to extend the tab bar all the way from the extreme left of the browser page to the extreme right. But I like it confined in a define quadrant. Thanks.
