I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I'm attempting to load multiple tabs with Firefox 32.0.3 and am having massive "hang time" issues in terms of the pages loading. It can take multiple minutes for 20-25 tabs to open fully and I'm baffled as to why my loading times have suddenly become so slow.

I'm using a Windows 8 PC with an Intel 7 series processor and 8 GB of ram, so system space isn't an issue; my main extensions for Firefox are TabMix Plus, AdBlock, Flashblock, NoScript, Cookie Controller and DownThemAll. I'm all of several feet from my home router so my connection speed is very good as well.

I'm just seeking options to improve load times that don't involve resetting everything I have set up for work extension-wise. I can handle waiting a minute for pages to load, but 2 or 3 minutes seems...a little much.

Youtube Safety Mode will turn on if Windows Parental Controls are enabled.

If I disable parental controls, safety mode safety mode will turn itself off. But if parental controls are re-enabled, safety mode will turn itself on. If I then try to turn it off manually, it says that it's been disabled, but it still stays on.

The only parental control that's enabled is the time limits. There are no other restrictions enabled. There is no other filtering software installed. It is doing this on three separate machines.

This is a problem specific to Firefox. Chrome and Internet Explorer do not exhibit this behavior. For the moment, they are using Chrome, as I do not wish to turn off parental controls.

This is recent behavior, within the last week or so. Prior to this, it didn't have any problems at all. I don't have an exact date when it started, but it sounds like it was one of the last few upgrades.

Is there a configuration setting to tell Firefox to not look at parental controls?

Why?

SNIP

All of my downloads are suddenly failing. I used Safari and the files I needed did download. I have tried all the suggestions under the "Download Failure" questions and it does not work. I attempted to do this

Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in scanWhenDone. You should now find the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone preference.

But I was unable to find that preference when I searched. Any other suggestions?

I always update Firefox when notified of a new version, but the last 2 or three updates of Firefox would not let me use Real-player down loader. The Real-player "button" did not even show up on earlier ver. of Firefox 32.0.3. Now on this latest Firefox ver 32.0.3 the Real-player "button" shows up but it's not working to down load anything. Am I missing something or do I have to go to Earlier version of Firefox? Any help is appreciated! Thx in Advance.

I've tried clearing cache, removing cookies, even resetting Firefox.... (I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox.) I still keep getting the "loading" icon with the circle dots cycling in the YouTube comments. I included the "troubleshooting information" below.

I've spent about five hours trying to fix this. (I didn't expect to pound on this so long.) Please help. Thank you.

I was browsing in my everyday way last night, and suddenly, all 300 or so bookmarks vanished.

I tried most of the online fixes, but they had no effect. That's a whole year of bookmarks!

Win 7, 64 Bit, Firefox 32.0.3, latest Flash version 15.0.0.167 when playing flash videos (e.g. from vimeo.com) after some minutes I can see a CPU consumption of 100 %; Taskmanager displays the firefox process as being responsible for the CPU consumption

activated add on's: flash plugin and add blocker

There are a few (very few) web sites that I want to have their cookies retained. I don't want these cookies deleted at all. Is there a way to save only certain select cookies and delete all the others?

When I have many tabs open in a window and use the < and > buttons at the ends of the tab bar to scroll left and right, if I click slowly enough one click scrolls one step, but if I click too fast it starts to jump by full window width usually overshooting the target by far.

Currently is is kind of impossible to move say 6 steps to left as clicking 6 times slow enough to not cause that annoying jump just takes a very long time

How do I make it so that one click on the button always moves the tab bar by one step and never does that jump?

I was having a problem in which I kept getting a popup that said "weekly occupational advice" every time I opened firefox but it would be just be a small black popup window. It was suggested to me that it may be malware and that I should reset firefox, so I did by following firefox's support page on reseting. When it reset it said it would save cookies,bookmarks etc. After reseting my tabs were even restored and bookmarks were there also but I had a sinking feeling about my etextbook that I had previously saved for offline use from coursesmart. When I checked "Offline Web content and User Data" under firefox's advanced option setting, it said (is saying) 0 bytes of disk space used and now my offline textbook that I saved is gone!!

In the space where it says "the following websites are allowed to save data for offline use" is now empty, whereas previously it said the course smart website address.

My history is still there, and I can see that I opened the offline textbook a few days ago but now it doesn't open.

Please help. My offline textbook is allowed to be downloaded in an offline setting in only ONE browser and since it was only on firefox, I am not able to access it offline in other browsers. :(

As a side note: my addons are also somehow deleted, because I had Adblock and Dictionary and now those are not present.

Using Firefox 32.0.3 on my 27" iMac works fine. About two months ago I purchased a top of the line 15" MacBook Pro laptop. The operating system is still OSX 10.9.5 On this 15" screen the height of the toolbars is too small, the toolbar icons are very small, the text size is small (I can increase the text size in a window using Control+, but the increase is temporary. The text returns to the small size if I exit and restart Firefox. Very annoying). Using the application Pocket opens a sidebar, where the text size is so small (about 1mm high!) that I can hardly read it. I tried to find the solution to my problem, but I couldn't. Please advise.

I'm using firefox 32.0.3 right now. Every sites work fine but i cannot open onlinesbi.com. It say "The connection has timed out" on firefox but open fine in other browsers including internet explorer. I reset firefox 2 times but still the problem exists. However it will open in lower version of firefox. Please look through the problem.

Starting Thursday, September 26, I cannot login to gmail. I stay logged into gmail continuously, rarely logging out. Starting yesterday, I noticed that my email was not up when I clicked on the Firefox tab that should have had my gmail account opened. Instead, I was at the login screen. I logged on and once the screen is populated, showing my in-box and the initial tabs and emails, before I can click on anything, the screen automatically reverts to the login screen. No error or message is ever given.

I started by trying all the typical restart browser, clear browser history & cache type fixes. Nothing worked. Today I am still unable to login to my gmail from my desktop computer. I can access email from my tablet or my phone with no problems but gmail from my computer is dead in the water. I rebooted. No change. I logged off of my Windows profile and logged into my wife's. I can login to gmail just fine from her profile using Firefox. When I'm logged into my profile I cannot. I can login using any other browser you can think of. I tried a default reset. No luck. I completely uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. No dice. This definitely seems like a Firefox issue, but limited only to my profile. What gives?

Has anyone else experienced this issue or have does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

The Error Console that opens with every new window is the one that was used in older versions of Firefox not the newer Web Console or Browser Console. Also, "devtools.errorconsole.enabled" is set to "false"

It starts about a week ago. Firstly, Ctrl+Shift+Tab worked normally, and Ctrl+Tab don't. Then both of them disables. I use Firefox on two different PCs, and on the second one these hotkeys do their job as well.

Hello,

after reinstalling my OS and moving my old Profile folder content into the new predesigned folder, I noticed that my Firefox Theme ceased to work.

My favourite Theme is this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/squaresincolors/ but after some inspection, I've found out that many others don't work correctly either. It seems they only load the background, but not the image (see screenshot). Some other Themes, however, work correctly. (Working: Cheerful frogs, Printania, etc.; Not working: COLOR & VIBRANCY , etc.)

I've tried the Help section and these Q&A's, but to no amount: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1016773 , https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1019704v , https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/unable-install-add-ons-or-extensions and so on. I reinstalled, restarted, refreshed. Nothing.

Could anyone please come up with a potentionally helpful suggestion? Thank you.

when trying to upload images to eBay to sell items the browse button on the standard uploader does not do anything, this works fine in IE and the basic upload also works well in both. I have cleared all cache and cookies but still not working.

I have not been able to get Java to work after the new update (update 33.0). I've tried every solution posted on Mozilla Supportforum and other tech-forums. I've completely removed Java (even with help of registry repairing software) and reinstalled it at least 5 times. Even this does not help. All I get from websites running Java is that "You need a program to show this content. Download Java here". This even happens after I have installed Java (Runtime Environment).

This has not only happend to me, but my sister, my dad (we are a Firefox family) and my mom. Even some of my friends complain about this same thing.

Is there a problem with this latest update? Because on my other computer I have the 32.x (something, don't remember the exact version, but it is not updated to the latest 33.0 version) and Java works just fine.

Any suggestions? Or is there an update coming soon, with a fix?
