12 Firefox and periodical spinning wheel on MAC OS
12 Firefox on MAC OS 10.7.4 often gets the spinning wheel and crashes temporarily. Just typing this message I've gotten it several times. I sometimes when I switch between tabs too. Google Chrome seems to work very well.
I have the 32-bit mode and disabled hardware acceleration in Firefox. I also deleted the plugin WebEx as suggested on another site. Any ideas what's happening?
First try to empty the Cache and Cookies
then try to delete duplicate Session Restore files

iMac froze on Start up on the Apple logo and the spinning wheel.
Hello
Can someone please help. My iMac started freezing when I clicked on any application or attempted to open anything. I turned it off the power and then turn it back on. Now I just get the apple logo with the spinning wheel down on white background. I tried to close again and reboot hold command + s, Ctrl + r, Ctrl + p + r, but nothing can get past the logo and the spinning wheel. I'm running snow leopard top and it worked fine until a couple of days. I can't on the utility disk or anythong at all. I'm not the most intelligent in the computers and it has me really stumped. Any kind soul can help with some info?
KND regards,
nicheda
Before doing all this, what is your status of backup? You have Time Machine or a clone of your hard drive? If this isn't the case, it may be best to do nothing until you are able to see if you can find a way to save your data if things go from bad to worse.
That said, assuming you are running OSX 10.5.8 (like on your profile) or Snow Leopard (according to the guidelines of this forum), have you tried starting restoring 1 gray disc that came with the Mac or the Snow Leopard installation disc? Insert the startup disk by holding down the c"" key. You may need to push the disc for the CD/DVD drive so that it can swallow the disk when you start if you can't get the Mac to accept the drive in its current state.
If all goes well it will boot from the gray disk, although slowly. Once started go to the Menu utilities > disk utility. Launch disk utility, select Macintosh HD and click on "repair disk". If changes are made click on repair disk again and repeat until you get a clean pass. Once that is done, try to restart normally in the Apple menu.

6.1.6 spinning wheel on Mac 10.7.5 Safari
Again, my computer knows the dreaded spinning wheel Safari! I have had this a year or two ago and so switched to Google Chrome and Firefox but apple told me that Safari has been so much more secure so I went back to Safari without problems for at least 3 months, so far! This is the material I have:
MacBook Pro; 10.7.5 OSX; 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 4 GB
Version of Safari 6.1.6
Can someone help me solve this problem?
I am unlikely to upgrade the operating system apple better advised engineering leave as it.
Why the genius he said you do not upgrade?
Safari/Preferences/Advanced - activate the menu to develop it, then go ahead and empty Caches. Quit/relaunch Safari and test. Then try Safari/history/Show History and remove all items from the history. Quit/relaunch Safari and test. You can also try try Safari Safari/Reset. The downside is that it deletes all cookies. It could upset some sites no longer recognizes your computer as one that has visited the web site. Go to Finder and select your user folder. With this Finder window as the windshield, select Finder/display/display options for presenting or order - J. When the display options opens, check "show the library folder. This should make your visible user library folder in your user folder. Select Library./Caches/com.apple.Safari/Caches.db, and then move it to the trash.
Go to Safari preferences/Extensions and disable all extensions. Test. If correct, enable the extensions one by one until find you which extension is causing the problem.

I interrupted the process of UPDATING FIREFOX, by choosing FORCE QUIT. Firefox file no longer exists in my folder / Library/Application Support. I want to restore (not update) my Firefox and Firefox Profile missing file. Also, I looked in my Time Machine backups, and there are no. FOLDER of FIREFOX in backups of library it.
You have an "Old data Firefox" folder on the desktop?
When you refresh/Reset Firefox then created a new profile and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, data form) are automatically imported.
The current profile folder will be moved to "Old data Firefox" folder on the desktop.
Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, Pref.) that you have made are lost and must be redone.You can use one of them to retrieve an existing profile or create a new default profile for Firefox:
- Remove the profiles.ini file to make Firefox create a new profile (default)
- Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
If you have an existing profile, then click on "Choose a folder" in the Profile Manager and navigate to the location of a profile lost to recover this profile
https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/managing+profiles
You should find the file profiles.ini in this hidden place:
- Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
* C:\Users\ < user > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\ - Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.
- Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
If the file profiles.ini compensation does not work then also check the location of the cache files.
- Windows: * C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
- Mac: ~/Library/Caches/Firefox/Profiles/
- Linux:~/.cache/Mozilla/Firefox/
You can also try to rename/delete the MozillaFirefox folder in the two above mentioned places (main, cache).

I have MAC OS X 10.4.11 and downloaded 7 from FireFox. It has replaced my old version, but I can't run it on 10.4.11. Now, I'm no. FireFox and I prefer Safari. What can I do to recover the old version?
Firefox 4 and later requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
You are unfortunately out of luck with an Intel Mac and OS X 10.4.11
The best would be to upgrade to OS X 10.5 or later if you want to use Firefox 4 and later versions (current is 7.0.1).
There is a third party compatible version Firefox 7 TenFourFox of www.floodgap.com for a PowerPC Mac, but no alternative for an Intel Mac with Mac OS X 10.4.Firefox 3.6.x (Mac OS X 10.4 and later versions) can be found here:
