• Firefox has becomes slow and unresponsive after that I tried to install the addons (not installed)?

  I recently format my computer and reinstall windows 7, since it was the only way I know of to solve the problem with Firefox (I already had this problem too). I download the latest version of firefox 33.0.2 and install it. This version was super fast. But becomes slow and unresponsive when I tried to install the Add-ons. I visited the official site of firefox and searching for addons, when I tried to install addons, Firefox crashed. Therefore, it has becomes quite slow and cannot restore previous sessions. Even to type my email address, it takes more than 5 minutes and reacts more frequently (after typing each letter).
  I want to know if this is due to some viruses, or this version of firefox is not "stable".

  Hey there,

  We are sorry to hear that Firefox crashes. To better help you, please follow the steps below to provide us with crash IDs to help us learn more about your accident.

  1. Enter Subject: hangs in the Firefox address bar and press ENTER. A list of submitted Crash reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent report ID begins with bp - and then back to your forum question but that stick in the box of "Post a response. (Please do not take a screenshot of your plant, just copy and paste the ID image below is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like)

  

  Once you have done so, you could try the Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

  If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

  If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

  When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

  

  If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  I hope this helps!

• Satellite A100 - Internet becomes slower after 10 minutes

  Hello

  the Satellite A100 worked well for a few years, the internet has become suddenly too slow after 10 minutes of the start.
  The laptop switched on the first time that the internet works very well the 10 first minutes then becomes slower and slower until almost no packets are received but the connection does not completely down.

  Suspected spyware, rootkit, is cleaning up, and then installed from the disk recovery

  Then I tried the same thing. Uninstalled the connection to the local network and then reinstalled from the Device Manager, nothing.
  I figured that the Ethernet port is a failure. Then I used an adapter usb-to-Ethernet D - Link is completely independent of the integrated Ethernet hardware. Nothing, same behavior, working, first fine then Firefox displays a downtime

  The modem, cable, internet are all very well since I have tested with a PC and a laptop Fujitsu (5 years) and they all work very well. Even the D-Link works fine.
  The Toshiba pc diagnostic tool specifically says "Network Fail", but it crashes exactly?

  An idea or a similar experience?

  Hello

  Hmmmmm... It sounds quite complicated.
  What is with WLAN? Have you noticed the same behavior using the WIFI connection?

• I think to buy a new MacBook to replace my MacBook pro mid-2010, which still runs but becomes slow.  They say the current MacBook pro without retina display (which I don't think I need) is an old system and may be obsolete soon - true?

  I'm buying a new MacBook to replace my mid-2010 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel core 2 duo, 4 GB of memory, which always runs, but becomes slow.   I don't think I need retina display (if I have a lot of photos and films on the subject), but I was told that the MacBook Pro without screen retina was an old system that Apple could not support much longer. Is this true?

  Barbara cfrompa says:

  Apple only can answer such a question, and the terms of use for these forums discourage us discuss what Apple plans to do.

  I too have a MBP 2010.  I installed an SSD and that increased performance.  Consider that as an option.

  You may experience other problems that slows down your MBP.  Before commit you the important cash for a new MBP, examine the potential software problems that may be responsible for the poor performance.  With the SSD, my 2010 works better than the day he came out of the box.

• I restored Firefox to its default settings, but the slowness, crashing and nonresponse are not resolved

  Hello colleagues-Firefox users.

  I followed the Commission indicated in the Support article on the slow, crash, etc. by restoring Firefox to its default settings. But the problems go away. The remains of the slow browser and still gives me error messages on a non-compliant script or plugin and crashes. To make matters worse I don't see the menu on the top tool bar items, I was so used to using, such as file, editing, display, etc.. I very often used the display menu to zoom on texts that are too small for me to read. Now I can not do. I tried to drag icons in the menu on the upper right of the page on the top tool bar above the address bar, but it is not the same thing as what I used to use before, and there is no File, Edit, View, tools in the menu icons. So now I see my g-mail Inbox in tiny little characters. I tried to use the Magnifier suggested in the troubleshooting of support page, but it's too heavy so I gave up.

  Would someone kindly please help me with these questions? Thank you much in advance.

  Kind regards
  Tom Graciano (globmart)

  If the zoom is your problem so just try to use the keyboard.
  Hold down the control (Ctrl) key + "+" to zoom in any window.
  Otherwise if the crash occurs suddenly so just try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox with the update. You brought a lot of changes manually, it might create problem. So reinstall once and check whether it is at your service.

• Equium A100 has recently become slow - files were changed

  Hello

  I have a new A100 equium with windows xp edition on it (preloaded) media center. Recently, it has become slow, especially when I click on 'my computer' and my c drive, it takes forever to open the window, especially when I try and do a right click on these icons. It is so bad that the window hangs and I have to open the Task Manager to close. Someone has any idea how to resolve this issue?

  Also, I get a message saying sometimes "files required for windows to run correctly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.» To maintain system stability, windows must restore the original versions of these files. Insert your now. »

  CANY anyone help with this? Its scared me a bit. Where can I get these original files?

  No idea why it happened oh perhaps the BONE is affected by a virus or malware
  However, the operating system said that there is something wrong with the file system.

  So my first thought is the reinstallation of the OS from the Toshiba restore CD.
  Check it out if it will work. If it is then maybe there is something wrong with the HARD drive itself

• EA6500 BECOMES SLOW INTERNET

  After you have installed the EA6500 router, my internet has become slow. I have connected my PC to the router by ethernet cable and I disconnected all of the Wi - Fi device and measured 8, 75 MB. So I connected the modem cable directly on the PC (no router) and measured 17, 8 MB. Why the EA6500 goes down fast? Could someone help me? Note: my firmware is 1.1.28.146856.

  It's more than likely the solution. Download and upload in media prioritization parameters settings limit the speed of networks together values they are willing to, then in the case of several devices try to access the internet, priority devices have priority over other devices.

  To work around the limitation of speed, you can set two values '0' to indicate the router to not limit the maximum download & upload, or find your maximum speed of connections and input the correct values. I say you understand because that due to various circumstances, that your internet connection is perhaps not able to realize what your internet plan, or it may exceed what it is supposed to be like mine don't. You can of course just go with what it is supposed to be so, nothing wrong with that.

  Edit: If I remember correctly, the reason that this, he must keep the coherent connection and, with the known maximum rates, the router can better determine exactly how to limit devices non-priority when there is to do.

• The response of the mouse becomes slow and I get the low battery warning

  The response of the mouse becomes slow and I get the low battery warning.  Until this started happening batteries have been change less than a month.

  Hello

  1. What is the brand of mouse and the model?

  2 have you ever done any recent software or changes to the hardware to the computer?

  If you use the Microsoft mouse, I suggest you follow these methods:

  Troubleshoot a wireless mouse that does not correctly:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/321122

  Troubleshoot the incidents of the response to the mouse or wireless keyboard:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/838398

  Use the following tips to get more life on the batteries in the keyboard and mouse:

  a. use the mouse on a surface of clear color. With the help of the mouse above a black surface can deplete the battery at a faster pace.

  b. do not use the mouse on a glass surface.

  c. when replacing the batteries, use alkaline batteries. Other types, may not last as long.

  d. when wireless devices are not in use, store them near the computer.

  I hope this helps!
