I continually get "Firefox not Resonding ', I tried different solutions, none has worked so far. What should I do?
I have used Firefox for a long time and have as my default browser. However the continual 'Firefox is not responding' makes me stupid.
My OS is Windows 10 and my version of Firefox 41.0.1
I tried various solutions, which none have worked so far, including renaming them the places.sqlite.old places.sqlite, uncheck "use hardware acceleration etc." and many others. I also have minimal active plugins.
The sites I used to visit are mainly new type sites, although of course there are others such as sports facilities, youtube etc...
I know that others have had this problem and some seem to have had their particular problem diagnosed, but despite all my efforts, I can't locate an answer that solved my.
I appreciate any help you might be able to give, and I am grateful for your interest to help me solve the problem.
Kind regards
Alan
A little more on the topic of Flash: since Flash can cause this problem and it is used everywhere around the web, I suggest the following to minimize potential problems with Flash in your troubleshooting:
(1) to avoid unnecessary pain on the sites where the Flash is not really essential, try to set the Flash on Click-to-Play (Ask 'activation'). This will delay the Flash start on a page, until you approve.
To set 'Ask to activate', open the page modules using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.
With this setting, when you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and usually (but not always) one of the following values: a link in a gray rectangle dark in the page or an information bar sliding between the toolbar and in the page area.
The plugin notification in the address bar icon usually resembles a little Lego block, dark gray. (If it is red, Flash must update.)
The delay in the activation of Flash can help distinguish between the problems caused on the initial page load, put in folds and script activation vs Flash/loading bar.
If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the notification icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.
But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! He will just stand here in case you want to use it later.
(2) a common cause of errors in script does not work in Windows Vista and later is the feature of mode of the Flash player plugin. This feature has the security benefits, but it seems to have serious compatibility problems on some systems. You can disable it using the page modules. Either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, find 'Shockwave Flash' and click on the link for more. Then uncheck the box for "Enable Adobe Flash protected mode" and try it for a day to see if that helps you.

Continuous freezing Firefox, I researched and tried several solutions that have failed.
I use Firefox 7.0.1 on Windows 7. I always at least 3 tabs open: mail of Yahoo, eBay and PayPal. I also usually have Facebook and Twitter open, I tired close each tab individually to see if it was the Web site of the origin of the problem and the problem persists. . I researched my problem for about an hour and found many people having similar problems. I think that my Firefox is "suspended" as shown here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20hangs. Unfortunately the few details I have tried did not solve my problem. I run Firefox in safe mode with all plugins disabled and the problem still occurred. I checked to see if if it was the CPU, my computer uses normally 1-2% for normal navigation but when Firefox blocks it jumps up to 12%. These blockages produce even if Firefox is idle. For example, I am currently using Chrome to tell you about my problem and Firefox froze just for about 45 seconds. These blockages occur approximately every 5 minutes, sometimes less sometimes more. I'm not using an AVG toolbar and my browser is not set to compatibility mode. Please let me know what it is I can do to fix this Chrome and IE are not suitable for the way I work.

Install the module, run at least the option mentioned in the article, I ran all. When finished, you can uninstall the extension, without having taken Firefox down, the extension is one of the new JetPack extensions. (Firefox 8 - Nov 8, 2011 - should not have that particular problem).

Suddenly icloud calendar does not load on my Lenovo PC. Has worked for months; iCloud contacts and photos both continue to operate. Any suggestions?
Hi scschwind,
I understand that you are having problems with your iCloud calendar on your Windows computer. Here is an article for you that will help you solve this problem:
Microsoft Windows (Microsoft Outlook)
After each step, check to see if the problem persists.
Check the system requirements
Make sure that your PC meets the system iCloud.
Check your Internet connection
- Try to go to www.apple.com. If you are unable to connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events does not update in Outlook. Get help with your Internet connection.
- Try to open a secure Web site to your PC to see if you can access the ports 80 and 443. If the site does not open, you do not have access. Contact your ISP for help. Safari requires access to port 443 to push updates between iCloud and your devices.
Check your settings
ICloud opened for Windows and make sure that you are connected to the same iCloud account that you use on your other supported devices.
Update Outlook
If you have recently made changes in Outlook that are not updated on your other devices (or vice versa), click the Refresh button on Outlook.
Turn off iCloud calendar and turn it back on
- Close Outlook.
- ICloud opened for Windows.
- Uncheck the Mail, Contacts, calendars, & tasks and click on apply.
- Wait a few seconds. Select Mail, Contacts, calendars, & tasks and click on apply.
- Open Outlook.
Make sure that the Outlook Add-in iCloud is enabled in Outlook
In Outlook 2010 and later:
- Click on the file menu.
- Click Options in the left panel.
- Click on add-ins in the left panel of the window Options in Outlook.
- Look at the list of add-ins in the section Active Application Add-Ins.
- Select the Outlook Add-in iCloud.
In Outlook 2007:
- On the Tools menu, select Management Center.
- Select Add-ins in the left column.
- Look at the list of add-ins in the section Active Application Add-Ins.
- Select the Outlook Add-in iCloud.
Make sure that iCloud is not your default account in Outlook
- In Outlook 2010 and later, select file > Info > Account Settings > data files. If iCloud is listed as default account in the comments column, select another account and click on set as default.
- In Outlook 2007, select file > data file management > data files. If iCloud is listed as default account in the comments column, select another account and click on set as default.
Restart your computer
After you restart your computer, see if you solved the problem.
Find your calendar in Microsoft Outlook
- Make sure that the calendar is enabled in iCloud for Windows.
- Locate your data in the iCloud folder in Outlook. You can also view your data in deleted items in your Outlook folder list.
If you find your calendar data in the deleted items folder, it is not because iCloud deleted your data. When you turn on Mail, Contacts, calendars, & tasks in iCloud for Windows, iCloud copy your calendar for the default Outlook .pst file data in iCloud. Then iCloud removes the calendar of the .pst file data by placing it in the folder deleted in Outlook items. Calendar data then moves to the iCloud data set in Outlook so that iCloud can push data to and from Outlook.
