Firefox crashes when Flash on

30 Dec https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1038039 fix got Flash working again, but there is another question. When you try to play a video that will run without Flash, Flash tries to run, and Fx crashes every time. This happens every time that if the Flash is set to 'active' or "tap to play" in the settings. To watch these videos, Flash must be "disabled" in the settings.

An example of site is: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04yf8lw/spiral-series-5-episode-1

This happens in v33.1 Fx and v34.0.1, then perhaps an issue that has been around for a while.

4.2 Android Tablet

This problem seems to have been resolved by Fx v 35.0.1.
Working so far!

    == a site using flash is open

    I use Windows 7 and I have the same problem. When I went to 3.6.4, Firefox would be to lock up whenever I tried to play any flash video. I have tried several sites and it would lock up every time I have to close by the Task Manager. I've updated the Flash Player and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, nothing could solve this problem.

    I read that they supposedly separated the plugins like flash in a separate procedure to keep firefox crash if flash does, but apparently they didn't do this right. I had to go back to Firefox 3.6.3 worm and flash works without any problem in this version. Seems that firefox must correct 3.6.4 since it seems he's messed up video flash for many users, if not most. It is useless if it can't play flash since almost all Web sites use this format!

  • Firefox crashes when during downloads, etc.

  • Firefox crashes when I access my modules page.

    Firefox crashes when I access my modules page. I have to use the Task Manager to unlock it. Some addons (AdBlock) still work. Others (NetVideoHunter) do not have. I would like to delete all the Add-ons and to start over, to see if it makes a difference, but when I access my modules page press the button 'Delete', FireFox crashes - so what am I supposed to do? I love Firefox because it is simple and usually without glitch - until now.

    Hey furdeal - if you want a fresh start, you can simply reset firefox. This will keep your bookmarks, passwords and history, but will remove all extensions and custom preferences.

  • Firefox crashes when you use Google as startup page

    Firefox crashes and gives me an error message general she had to close for some reasons.
    This only happens when I use Google as my home page.
    If I use another Web site as startpage all works well and I can go to Google from here and everything works.
    In short: FF hangs at startup only when you use Google as starpage, I see the Google page briefly and then crashes FF.
    I would really like any solution because I have always used Google start page and you want to keep it this way without having to start with i.e. altavista and go to google from there.

    This seems to be related to the new "doodles" with Olympic events. I hope that the problem will end this week.

  • Firefox crashes when you open no matter what context menu - Save as download window, window options, etc.

    This is the third time I had this problem with firefox...

    Firefox crashes when you try to upload images, files, etc. right click context menu opens (with bookmark, save the page, save the image, options etc) but after selecting an option, save the image or another, the real save as dialog box does not open and firefox crashes.

    say many pages open the download and clear history... I can't do that, trying to open the download hangs there, too. like, trying to open any what other dialogues.

    the first time that this has happened, the only solution I could find was a total wipe and re-install (simple uninstall/reinstall didn't work... it had to be weeded manually in the registry).
    the second time that I got just to rebuild my system, so I just do a fresh install on a fresh OS.

    This time I can't seem to solve the problem of uninstalling and re - install...

    discovered what he was doing!

    After trying safe mode of firefox and safe mode of windows and any number of other things I gave a little upward for a bit there, but I woke up from a dream in the middle of the night thinking ' based on the conduct in question, it * must * be something in the shell that is the cause. " (Sorry, I dream of geek).

    so I grabbed a shell viewer editor - ShelleExView (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html) (had to use a yucky, any browser to download) and gave him a race.

    I have listed all the extensions of the date they were added as a clsid and trying of think back to when the problem started... about a month or so, after a new system, reinstall. and through a little trial and error disabling, I found the culprit.

    It is an overlay Manager icon set by what is called WagerLogic. After looking into the company's name, I have to assume this was related to one of the annoying "just lost real money on our virtual casino" pop-ups that infest the net nefariously scenic for an easy mark as orphaned Dickens.

    I disabled it and voila! Firefox is still in full function.

  • Firefox crashes when I play youtube or flash in the background

    Hello everyone
    Starting last month set by the most recent firefox update I ran into an annoying accidents whenever I play youtube or something using flash for firefox it will crash a few minutes later.
    So I read through the support of mozilla to fix the problem myself and did the following:
    turn off hardware acceleration for firefox and adobe, search of viruses, updated my drivers and even memtest86. All to nothing not done, finally I decided to wait simply the most recent update to fix this bug. So the good news is it fixed the error nvwgf2um.dll but not msmpeg2vdec.dll.

    Here are my five latest bug reports

    Hmm, I would not have thought the external components of video decoding have been at the heart of the problem. The wire 'blocked' in reports is not 'die' in a video decoding function. The most recent four crashed in "garbage collection" or the functions "cycle collector", dealing with the memory. Personally, I find these difficult to understand error reports.

    As a partial solution, you can use an extension that forces Flash on YouTube, as one of the following values:

    Alternatively you can try to disable the MPEG decoding, but some sites are perhaps not able to "fall back" in a different format or Flash and will just error (for example, Twitter videos):

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste media and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference media.directshow.enabled to true to false

    (4) double click on the media.mediasource.mp4.enabled preference from true to false

    (5) double-click the preference media.mediasource.webm.enabled to false to true

    (6) double-click the preference media.windows - media - foundation.enabled from true to false

    The effect of everything that should be blocking MP4/h.264 decoding and place you in the latest format WebM (VP9) YouTube. You can check the result on this page, but that might not show up after leaving Firefox and start it again:

    https://www.YouTube.com/HTML5 (the two h.264 should be red)

    It's not so convenient for other video sites, but I'm curious to know if it helps on YouTube or has the same problems.

  • Firefox crashes when you open new tab

    Crash-ID: bp-681f1751-fc5b-4f14-a30b-f93ed2150407

    I tried:
    Clean install (with the removal of C:prog... \Mozilla)
    Uninstallation and removal of extensions
    Firefox restarted in safe mode without addons/extensions.
    Uninstalling/updating flash/adobe

    Can I start firefox, but when I press on the "+" to open a new tab Firefox closes and the ' Mozilla Crash report ' window opens.
    It seems that firefox it self can open a tab. For example, when I do a new installation, Firefox opens with 2 tabs.

    But when I want to open one that it breaks down and Firefox stops. Its really weird because I've never run this kind of problem before and I don't remember installing anything new until this problem appeared.

    What is the setting of the new tab page?

    You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the topic: config page.
    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    See this article on the page tab (topic: newtab):
