How to enable hardware acceleration in FireFox 31

Please tell us how to enable hardware acceleration in FireFox 31. All of my graphics and other hardware/software is current and up to date. I also paired to my toolbar to bookmark up to 20 entries less.

FireFox is so slow that a few tabs open cause the 'wheel of doom' suspension whenever I try to enter information or go to another part of the Web site. Sometimes, the breaks are 5 to 10 seconds, sometimes a minute or more.

I don't have this problem on other browsers I use.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey, what helped was reset Firefox functionality. I found the idea on this thread of Mozilla: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1003863

Thank you for your answers!

  • How to enable hardware acceleration in an Adobe AIR application

    Hello

    As the author of this post How to enable hardware acceleration in an air exe? , I try to activate hardware acceleration inside my AIR application

    If the user has disabled hardware acceleration in the sound settings flash drive, context3d.driverInfo will say "Hw_disabled = userDisabled".

    The only way to re-enable is to open Internet Explorer or Firefox and right-click on a flash content, then check "enable hardware acceleration".

    I (we) would like to be able to reactivate directly inside the AIR application (via actionscript code) and not tell the user to open a browser and check some random boxes (cause you know that it is not very easy to use...)

  • How to enable hardware acceleration to play solitare?

    Original title: hardware issues

    When I try to play solitaire. He told me to turn on my hardware acceleration. How can I do this?

    You must ensure that the graphics card is at the height.

    I suspect that you have upgraded to Windows 7, so what you have to do now is obtained from the computer manufacturer site and download and install Windows 7 drivers for your graphics card, or, in the case of a desktop computer, go the manufacturer of graphics card and get the drivers for Windows 7.

    If it is not all, you will have to put up with what you have, or go back to the last known good operating system, or update your computer...

  • How to enable hardware acceleration of storage

    Hello!

    We have a vSphere 4.1 and a 5 with Eternus DX80 CF-Based storage environment vSphere.

    When I go to Setup - storage, I can see that hardware acceleration is "Unknown" or "not supported".

    What should I do to activate hardware acceleration? It is a feature based on the material that I have to order or is it a software feature that I only need to activate?

    If you receive messages on the need to increase "hardware acceleration", it's because you try to run a program/game that requires performance characteristics more that your machine has.

    You will find the graphics driver that is available only on the computer manufacturer site. With that installed, if the messages yet, your computer is not running the program/game and nothing you can do will change...

  • Hardware acceleration in Firefox 27 worked well under XP, but creates problems in W7. Any solution?

    I've updated recently for Windows 7 XP (thanks to MS stopping to support XP). Material remains the same. The drivers are up to date. I installed Firefox 27 since the beginning.
    In Windows XP, I had font smoothing on, even with Windows 7. Windows XP I had no idea of ClearType, I disabled it in Windows 7. In Windows 7, I chose Tahoma as fonts for windows (not that Segoe UI "fonts").
    About Firefox. Under XP I had hardware acceleration (check mark). All fonts were smooth and no problems at all. In Windows 7 when hardware acceleration is enabled, a kind of ghost image appears in full on 14 or 16 px (as in the search field in google or the titles of the results) and bold all. But the fonts look good as in www.adventuregamers.com or support.mozilla.org .
    If I disable hardware acceleration (box unchecked) I solve the problem with ghosting, but letters as in www.adventuregamers.com or support.mozilla.org appear to be "broken", as if some letters are not thick enough and they seem more "light". I might post some screenshots if that would help.

    I tried all the solutions, I found here, including changing some settings on gfx.content.azure.enabled or gfx.direct2d.disabled in all: config from FF in the theme of basic/mode without danger, but without success.

    Any ideas?

    Workaround: FF execution in Windowx XP SP3 Compatibility Mode. For Adobe Flash crashing, add "ProtectedMode = 0" in "Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash/mms.cfg" (Edit with Notepad). Everything works perfectly until now, only the |-| _| x | buttons appear as in XP.
    No problem not noticed until now.

  • How to increase hardware acceleration in windows 8 Pro

    Salvation of WIndows experts, please let me know how to increase windows hardware acceleration in Windows 8 Pro?

    Hi Sabir,

    Hardware acceleration can be increased or decreased. It can only be enabled or disabled. It also depends on the graphics card. Some graphics cards do not support hardware acceleration.

    Please read the following steps to check if the graphics card supports acceleration hardware or not and to allow:

    a. on the desktop, press the Windows key + X and select Control Panel.

    b. in icons view, click view , and then click change display settings, in the left pane.

    c. click on Advanced settings.

    In the advanced settings window, if the Troubleshooting tab is present, then the graphics card supports hardware acceleration.

    b. click the Troubleshooting and move the Hardware Acceleration complete.

    c. click OK and restart the computer to save the settings.

    I hope this information is useful. Please get back to us with the State of the question.

  • Problem with fonts. If enable hardware acceleration "BOLD" fonts look weird, but if I turn it off, "BOLD" fonts seem good, but normal fonts look weird

    Title.

    With hardware acceleration: http://imgur.com/jHRk6Yl words 'empty' look and really weird air instead of being "BOLD". But if I disable it, normal fonts look "weird" in some Web sites (not all) and are difficult to read.
    Any solution?

    Hmm, another user Windows 10 reported this after installing some Helvetica fonts.

    In your screenshot, the text 'blue indicated' is the following style rule:

    font-family: "helvetica neue",arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
    

    So I guess you have Helvetica Neue installed locally, which seems to have strange problems in Firefox.

    If you don't want to remove this font on your system, you can use custom style rules for Firefox overrides Arial, which is what I see on Windows 7 on this page. I saw the first time that documented in this article (from 2010!):

  • How to disable hardware acceleration for the only area?

    Firefox is a great product and I had not any problems so far that I couldn't solve... but:

    Microsoft updated the interface of Hotmail user, Firefox will crash now, whenever I have send an email from this site. This can be "solved" by disabling hardware acceleration, but I don't want to have to endure the inconvenience of it just because of a site... My graphics driver is updated.

    So my question: is it possible to create a work around for this problem? I doubt that the hardware acceleration may be disabled for a single site, but maybe there is a way that allows me to start a new instance of Firefox without hardware acceleration or something like that so I don't have to not go to options, turn off, restart Firefox, check/send emails, go to options again and restart again... any ideas?

    Hello, Bloodthorn, sorry, but the hardware acceleration may NOT be disabled for a single site (and I would like that too if possible), try Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition and disable hardware acceleration in a portable version.

    Thank you

  • How to enable flash player on firefox to always turn on by default

    So, while browsing the internet and watching flash videos became unresponsive and I stopped and sent the accident report. When I refreshed the videos to buffer again, I was invited to allow flash (Shockwave Player) to run. I never changed this setting to ask to activate before and I did it for me without my consent. When I tried to change that setting back always activate, the option is greyed out so I am not in a position to actually chose this option and continue my day. I'd not have to deal with this, because in my school, flash is heavily used and this has become a very big trouble that I would have corrected. Otherwise I will be forced to stop using Firefox, because it's too much an extra to have hassle to deal with. Also when updated to the latest version of flash player it does not correct the problem.

    Due to a vulnerability declared in the current version of Adobe (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/prod.../apsa15-04.html), Mozilla has soft-blocked the latest version of the Shockwave Flash plugin. Therefore, you must enable on trusted sites to use instead of being able to set Firefox to allow all sites use Flash automatically.

    If you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. Your choice: for a current or permanent use.

    But the page might be using Flash only followed or playing a video ad. If you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification, it will just sit there in case you want later.

  • How do I activate hardware acceleration for playing solitaire?

    Before playing Solitaire, a screen to make sure that hardware acceleration is turned on. How can I do this?

    Well, I have just explained how you enable hardware acceleration.  If there is no such setting in display properties and then it is not available (or is already at full throttle, and didn't need adjustment).  If you have questions about how the game can give you this message when you cannot set hardware acceleration on your system, I recommend that you contact Support technique Dell for an explanation.  Maybe there is another way on their system to activate hardware acceleration or maybe this message appear on all systems with the game installled if is possible to adjust the hardware acceleration.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
