I can't watch Flash videos because Firefox uses too much CPU.

Firefox has become untenable because it uses too much CPU and disrupts the Flash videos.

I tried to disable or change the values of the plugins. Install older versions. Nothing helps. It just sucks. Makes me want to get out the lungs of someone.

Updated to Firefox 8.0.1 - http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

  • How to stop sharing folder Windows Media Player executable because it uses too much CPU?

    How can I disable the network share (wmp.share) because he is constantly using too much CPU? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    You can view these methods:
    Method 1:
    I recommend you perform the clean boot.

    Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

    See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Method 2:
    I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service . If its status is started , double-click the service, and then click stop .
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this folder, rename the folder Media Player as Old Media Player . If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

  • Firefox using too much memory

  • Linux, Firefox 21.0 and the last flash for LINUX (11.2). I can't view youtube videos because firefox has disabled the plugin. Help!

    An hour ago, I watched with happiness of the videos from youtube on Linux using Firefox 20.0 and 11.2 flash. I've just updated firefox and it of now my blocking flash and invites me to update. The problem is I can't update because 11.2 is the LATEST version of the flash for firefox plugin, there is no other version.

    Is there a way to prevent the deactivation of my firefox plugin?

    The directory structure, at least for linux, seems to have changed for version 21. I have my distribution of firefox / opt/firefox /, and so far I keep the plugin flash in/opt/firefox/plugins /. Verse 21, the plugin directory should be/opt/firefox/browser/plugins/EC directory does not exist by default. You can create or mv just the old directory of plugin to the new location

    $ cd/opt/firefox / #(ou partout où votre firefox est installé)
    $ mv plugins / browser /.

    Icons / directory has also been moved to that subdirectory, that's why my office firefox button was not correctly displayed after the update.

    -The main thing that firefox really should do is to archive the previous version of firefox, whenever there is an update. It is ridiculous to have to deal with this kind of issue immediately after an update when you have important work to do on time! To do a simple option to temporarily return to the previous version of firefox. It would be trivial to implement and could be used when a new release breaks something.

  • I can't watch the videos on Firefox since the upgrade.

    Since the upgrade to the latest version of Firefox, I can't watch videos. I checked to see that all my drivers are up to date, including Adobe, but nothing seems to help!

    If anyone has a solution I would be very happy. Right now I use Chrome when I want to see a video on YouTube for example.

    Thank you. I just deleted Real Player, and now the videos work fine.

  • I can't watch the videos on Firefox. No problem see on Chrome. How can I fix?

    I'm used to be able to see the videos on Firefox but not now. I see them fine on Chrome.

    There is a recent problem with Adobe Flash, which can be faulty here. Please see that 11.3 Flash does not load video in Firefox . Let us know if that fixes the problem.

  • Can't watch youtube videos in firefox browser

    When I try to watch any youtube video in Firefox, I get a black square where the video is meant to be. I tried solutions in the areas of appropriate assistance without success that I can not find the firefox tool button to activate javascript. I also have the latest version of the shockwave player. How can I go about fixing this problem?

    It is a problem caused by an add-on/extension installed. Recently, I helped another person to solve the same problem.

    Launch FireFox in Mode safe mode, which disables all add-on/extensions & trying to watch the same videos again. Then select just each module individually again until the problem resurfaced surface to identify the add-on causing the problem.

  • Firefox uses too much RAM

    After the update to Firefox 23 I had a lot of problems. The major problem I had is that Firefox uses up to the amount of memory RAM (from 2 GB for less than 5 tabs assets/load) and ends up crashing. After a few tests, I found that when I closed the tabs that about 2 to 3% of what Firefox started using when I opened the tab is unloaded. Using the about command: memory, I discovered that xpcom uses the more this 1 GB RAM passes after awhile of navigation.

    a user here reported ghostery as a source for leaking memory - you can keep this option disabled for a while and watch the use of resources...

  • I can see videos from Youtube with IE 9 (I installed Flash). But I can't watch the videos on Youtube using FF (3.6.23). Please notify

    Can I use the add-on in IE for two browsers?

    "It is not a waste of resources necessary to download what appears to be the same program."

    It's just another problem with IE as it's the only browser using the ActiveX version.

    Flash will show in Firefox Add - ons > Plugins like "Shockwave Flash".

  • Firefox using too much processor power and memory after that I have closed it

    I always clicked on 'X', the red top right of firefox to close. Lately when I do it, my CPU/RAM usage goes up dramatically and ff never really closed, slowing down my whole computer. It's really annoying, and the only way I know to stop it is to complete the process on ff with windows Task Manager. Any suggestions as to what could be the problem?

    If we consider the problem is resolved you can mark it as you please.

    However note that Norton Internet Security, by default, is likely to run 'pulse updates' not really a topic to discuss here, except to say that this activity may well continue, depending on your settings with Norton, regardless of whether or not you have the toolbar installed Norton.

    I currently have a paid for version of Norton installed.

    My understanding is that Norton bar refers to the password management etc for safe research and general connection with the site of Norton.

    • The Norton Toolbar is not compatible with the current beta of firefox 4
    • I don't know if there are other harmful effects on firefox
    • In itself remove the toolbar will not stop Norton software affecting the use of firefox (but this is of course to ensure the safety, I do not pretend you remove, only that you take into account its CPU cost wise)
  • Can not find AcerCloud customer to remove. It uses too much CPU and I even do not use.

    HI, I'm trying so my hand on streaming and running programs is fine on my cpu and is not more than 70%. However, I noticed that AcerCloud Client (32-bit) sometimes decides to examine the CPU usage, often maing my CPU 100% usage and I even do not use.  Normally I would not have noticed but my streaming (OBS) software crashes and disconnects me when the CPU usage becomes too high and it's really frustrating, especially since I don't even use the program.

    I picked it out, but in my list of programs he isn't here.  I removed Acer portal because I thought it was her.

    Where is AcerCloud customer?  I want to remove it since its origin a nuisance and I'm not using it anyway.  I win 10.  Help, please

    Hello

    Try to remove all the software listed on this page. With them, you can also remove the acer clouds.

    Also try to navigate to C:\Program cloud\ Acer and see if you find one kind configuration here which could allow you to uninstall. Also, if you don't find anything, try the Program Files (x 86) folder.

  • Why firefox uses so much memory?

    For several months, Firefox has eaten memory like crazy. Once I get more than 5 tabs open or that you have Firefox running for more than an hour, the memory usage hit about a GB. If I continue to let go beyond that, it will hit 1.5 to 2 GB and it made my gel set office. I got to keep the Task Manager and every hour or so just kill Firefox and restart. Preventing it from crashing my whole desktop computer. It's definitely worse when I opened Google products, especially maps and Docs. GMail is generally OK.

    I tried to disable literally every add-on and Extension (including Flash and Adblock).

    I'm on Windows 7, I have 4 GB of RAM installed. I am on version 40.0 Firefox, but this has happened through a few updates now (I think the problem started around March or April). I also tried to back - rev Firefox and go to the latest version, that I had before the problems started, but that did nothing either.

    Chrome works fine on this machine without any similar problems - but I prefer Firefox!
