  Firefox crashes repeatedly
  Crash ID: bp-0d558271-ea4d-42ca-b561-528c02131003

  Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

  You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

  Then perform the following steps:

  • Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
  • In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
  • You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
  • Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

  In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

  • Troubleshoot extensions, themes, and issues of hardware acceleration to resolve common problems of Firefox
  • Update your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL

  The report please come back shortly.

• Firefox crashes repeatedly since Version 29 was intalled

  Hi all
  I had at least one accident per week since Version 29 became operational. I'm not too happy, especially since the recent accidents seem would have cost me a few periods of my recent history that I might need for reference tracking for my writing.

  Here is the latest list of accidents:

  As you can see from the dates of the frequency of crashing is way up since the beginning of May. I know it's only once a week or more, but it's still very embarrassing - especially when the information is disappearing. It's bothers me a lot. I know that I ignored some steps recommended in the page web https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-troubleshoot-prevent-and-get-help . But what I would really some clues as to why this is happening. Unfortunately, my experience with computer programming only goes so far and I find the text of incomprehensible accident reports - perhaps someone here could glance and see if they can find something important. I will say that I'm also growing use of memory over time and I had a few crashes and slowdowns during this month as well.

  I start to wonder if Firefox has just released itself specced out of reach of my seriously old material - if this is the case Just tell me and I'll see if I can fall back to a previous version because I do not in any case the interface V. 29 - I got to use the Restorer of classic theme Add on to return to something I can live with that and it still doesn't seem right of me. I want to emphasize that I have Asperger's Syndrome and I do really badly in the face of the changes in my visual environment,

  Yours Sincerely,
  Kaelkitty.
  .

  Edited to add: as far as I can tell, all of the plug-ins and extensions are up-to-date. I can't update my drivers more for this system because no new is produced for this material.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
  While you are in safe mode;
  Press < Alt > or < F10 > to display the toolbar.
  Followed;

  Windows; Tools > Options
  Linux; Edit > Preferences
  Mac; name of the application > Preferences

  Then Advanced > General.
  Find and stop using hardware acceleration.

  Dig safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

  Each of these error reports is caused by something related to Covenant eyes monitoring

  You have something like that installed on your PC?
  Or is that what Firefox crashing on the CovenantEyes.com site?
  I had Firefox "blocks" repeatedly while this Web site has been opened in Firefox.

• Firefox crashes soon after startup

  Asked me to restart my laptop (64 bit) of Windows 7 to apply an update to my Norton protection product. In my view, an update of Firefox has been applied recently as well.

  After the restart, Firefox crashes repeatedly. I can usually do much after Firefox restarts before it crashes again.

  Hi Matt & Omnisilver

  I followed all the troubleshooting steps in the links you provided & thought that was included in my original post, but it seems that after the first half.

  In any case, I restarted again, and up to now things seem stable, even with extensive extensions, so I think that my problems are solved.

  Thanks for your answers,
  Julie

• Firefox crashes

  After the update to firefox43.1 this morning (19 December), firefox is in constant crash mode. I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 or 4 times still nothing does not. When I click to open it, a minimized screen appears with two 'new tab' button located in the upper part and the start of firefox tab page (3rd from the left).

  This hangs there for a few moments, then I get firefox crashed and had to close the message. What happened today at least a dozen times. It worked perfectly until this last updated and I had to download Google Chrome
  just to get in line... and it sucks. I really want to come back on Firefox... Please help. I tried to attach images/screen-dumpsters and file errors, but they do not load upward.

  Thank you.

  Nick G

  Hi, please try pressing the windows key + R and open: cmd.exe - in the console that opens the type in the following command: netsh winsock reset. then press on enter, restart the system once, and see if that would improve the situation...

  Firefox has slowed to a crawl... taken advice on the support page to delete and rename the file "places.sqlite" in Manager files in Firefox. Now Firefox only crashes all the time. guess my decision to go back to the Explorer was made for me... can not solve the new versions of FIrefox crashes, slowness, errors... now only breaks down and the "places.sqlite. old"file I saved is gone now, so cannot yet go back to it...

  Firefox does not work at all... ?

  Sorry to hear about the accident. If you get the Mozilla Crash Reporter form, your Firefox could have registered some data that would help to find the cause of the problem. You can submit these data to Mozilla and share with the volunteers of the forum to see if it points to the solution. Please check the support article "Firefox blocks - ask for help" to get the procedure to get these crash report IDs since the topic: block the page and then after the most recent here.

  Note: If Firefox is not stable enough to use the subject: page crashes, the article also describes how to check for submitted crash IDs disk report.

  Also, and/or at the same time, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? Which temporarily disables extensions, hardware acceleration, and a few more advanced features of Firefox that could make it more prone to crashing on some systems.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any less crashy?

• Developer Edition of Firefox crashes every time when text in bold in the wordpress Editor.

• YouTube makes Firefox crashes

  When I run a youtube video after a while, firefox crashes.
  Sometimes, it's when I change position video on youtube.
  Sometimes, it's after I close the youtube tab.
  This happens even in safe mode.

  You can try to disable GStreamer support by setting media.gstreamer.enabled to false on the topic: config page to force YouTube to use the Flash plugin in case there is a problem with the media player of HTML5.

  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.

  I can confirm that the update of Invincea published in (bug 1219242) has solved the problem of Firefox crashing on the machine that this report was originally on.

• Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes

  Everytime I open Firefox I get a message: "an attempt to change your home page has been blocked" and firefox crashes.
  I unintalled (on my MAC) and reinstalled twice. Makes no difference. Any suggestions?

  Could you try starting Firefox in Safe Mode? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the option key when starting Firefox.

  If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  and OK reboot.

  Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

  Any improvement?

  While you are in Mode without failure, you could copy a list of your extensions and paste them into an answer? The best place for this is the support information page - either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
  • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information

• Firefox crashes at the start even in safe mode

  Firefox crashes and makes internet Explorer and also chromium at startup. Chrome works however after reintallation, but may break after a reboot.
  It was produced after an update of the anti-virus (avast and avg) both demanded a restart of the computer.
  I turned off the antivirus and reinstalled the browser (latest version), but it still crashes.

  I think I solved the problem!

  It seems to be the new version of "protection avg: zen ', it is to play with all web browsers, is not search for viruses, closes the network connection and not to repair...
  So I removed it and everything seems to work normally...

  Should have known that avg was problem since all the headaches began after its update.

  Thanks for all the help!

• Ubuntu 15.04: firefox crashes, plugin-container using 90% CPU, 11 GB of RAM

  Once in a while (maybe once a week on average), Firefox crashes suddenly, and check the 'top' shows that the plugin-container uses 90% and more of CPU and RAM (I have 12 GB of RAM). So I kill firefox and when I restart, it works normally again.

  For extensions, I only LeechBlock (and changes of Ubuntu). For plugins I have Flash, Java, OpenH264 Video Codec and (apparently) iTunes application detector. Flash and Java are both updated.

  Because the problem somewhat rare occurrence, I was not able to reproduce, or to track down any kind of cause, but I thought he deserved the description anyway; a web search doesn't show anyone else reported the same problem.

  FredMcD not know if the OP was using Firefox on Windows and not on Linux as only your first link is applicable.

  The Flash Player and Java Plugins can be guilty. You must set them to "Ask to activate" so that they will work when you allow.

  I have a strong enough Linux system I find Flash Player setting to "Ask to activate" can still make a big difference as the Flash videos and ads will not play unless so authorized and I (i5 - 4690 k and 16 GB of Ram).
