second firefox

Hi, I've been in love in this charming firefox for years. Recently, I have a few projects in hand which oblige me to keep track of all the history/Max/cookies. However, because each project is unique, the last thing I want to do is to mix all the archives. Friends me offers to install other browsers, but none of them are as good as firefox. Is it possible that I can run two or more Firefox that they do not share the Max/history/cookies? Please please advise, thank you for your help.

Do you need to run two different versions of Firefox or two independent of the same version instances?

For different versions, you must do a custom installation and install each version in its own folder in program.

Do not create a separate profile for each instance of Firefox you want to open and start instances with the - non-interrupteur command line remotely.

It is also easier and better to have for each version desktop shortcuts to start with his own profile.

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox(1)\firefox.exe -P "profile_1"
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox(2)\firefox.exe -no-remote -P "profile_2"

  • Second firefox.exe appearing in the process in Windows Task Manager...

    Hi all!

    I started facing this problem a few days ago and do not know what is the cause:

    In my Windows Task Manager, there are two firefox.exe that appear under the process (under Applications, Firefox only appears once). I used to complete the process to close each of the firefox.exe that appear and the result was special. Depending on whether one I finish, either the window closes completely as well as all tabs or hangs the tab that is currently open and I get the message: "bad new first: this tab broke down."

    I scanned my computer with AVG for viruses and everything was clean back. I've also scanned with ESET for malware and nothing was found.

    Any idea what I can do to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Firefox abandons his silently http request within 60 seconds

    • Summary

    Firefox abandons its http request in nearly 60 seconds (period till)
    waiting time varies) and says nothing to users. This has happened at a time of
    Nginx and Apache.

    • Environment

    Client browser: Firefox 35.0.1
    Client OS: Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit SP1
    Web server: Apache 2.2.3 - 91 & 1.6.2 - 1 of Nginx
    Server operating system: CentOS 5.11
    PHP: 5.3.3
    FastCGI: spawn-fcgi(3) - 1.6.3 - 1

    • Description of the problem

    I noticed that nginx record 499 http response code so often.

    Nginx is used almost only to two web applications, one based on PHP
    and others on ruby. We encounter this problem in both applications. The server and the client PC belong to the same subnet.

    Since last month, nginx logged 624 errors for Firefox and 16 others
    browsers (IE, almost).

    For the test, so I wrote a simple PHP (see bottom of article) and I tried to access
    Thanks to these two Apache and Nginx with 35.0.1 Firefox and IE 11. IE11
    waited for 120 seconds and returned html successfully through two nginx
    and Apache, but Firefox has failed or the other.

    Let me describe the behavior of Firefox.

    1. Enter the test php url in the address bar, and then press ENTER.
    2. the message "waiting for response from the server" appears in the status bar for a while.
    3. watch the conversation network through Wireshark, signals 'Keep Alive'
    are repeated several times between server and client, and after that,
    4. the message disappears. 'END' signal is sent to the server, the client, just after that. Firebug newspapers 'Aborted' to the almost at the same time.
    5. the responses from the server ' END ACK.

    There is a difference of bit with nginx and Apache behavior after ' END
    ACK "."

    A.Nginx

    Nginx logs '499' error and end the conversation immediately.

    B.Apache is not connect anthying at this stage. After 120 seconds (sleep timer
    in PHP) of the request, it returns html expected. Of course Firefox doesn't make it, but I could confirm both request and response of the "Follow TCP Stream" of Wireshark function. Finally, it is saved with the http status code 200 to the httpd log file.

    I repeated this test several times. Actual expiration time varies from 22
    70 seconds but the results are the same.

    To my knowledge, the browser should display "timeout error".
    After such a situation, but it only shows nothing. If the end user does not
    find out what happened.

    • What I tried to solve the problem
    • Disable all other than firebug extensions.
    • 'network.tcp.keepalive.enabled' set to false in: config.
    • the value "network.http.spdy.enabled" fake, too.
    • the "network.http.response.timeout" value 0.
    • Mobile IPV6 and DNS prefetch, seeing what follows to help.

    • past Timeout to 0 to http.conf to apche.

    My goal is to make our web applications to work correctly in our work environment. I have recommended Firefox to colleagues because it was a very cool application. Change the default brawser is a nightmare for me. Any suggestions are welcome.

    < php test >
    Sleep (120);

    Dear jscher2000

    I saw your site with my Firefox twice and there is no expiration time. After 120 seconds, Firefox has made text "sleep 120 seconds before generating the HTML."

    If this isn't the problem in Firefox, but our network or server or both of them.

    Thanks to you all. I will try to pinpoint the cause of our problem.

  • In Windows 7 Professional, Firefox has suddenly started using more than one symbol in the taskbar... Why?

    After you install Firefox it placed a symbol in the toolbar to launch. When you move the mouse over this symbol it would display then also the tabs that were open in the browser. Then, the program was launched and operating within this Firefox ONE symbol on the task bar... it was never (to a point), more of a symbol.

    Now suddenly he started to open a second Firefox symbol in the toolbar in which the browser really runs and displays the open tabs. In other words, I now have a Firefox symbol in the taskbar to launch the browser and the other, the second symbol in which the browser is running. I don't want because it takes too much space on the taskbar. How can I return to keep Firefox limited to a single symbol in the taskbar at all times?

    The first icon is "pinned" to the Windows 7 taskbar in an earlier version? Could you try unpinning and repinning Firefox and see if that helps?

    Plese, help!

    First of all, if you have Firefox, you were downloading, do not download. Second, Firefox does not come with Ask as the default search. Where do you have Firefox? You should get the source Firefox: Mozilla. Thirdly, there are a lot of Windows programs that will try to implement the search engine toolbars in browsers when install you it if you don't pay close attention to each step of the installation.

    Here, there are tools that should work:

    help....
    

    A number of things.

    First of all, you have ClearType disabled at the system level? Firefox is not its own version of ClearType integrated, unlike IE which applies ClearType even if you turn it off at the level of the system.

    Second, Firefox sometimes displays fonts ugly if it is incompatible with your graphics card driver. The solution is to disable the use of Firefox hardware acceleration. Here's how:

    the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    It takes effect after you quit and then restart Firefox.

    Any difference?

  • Recurring gel due to periodic spikes in CPU usage.

    I am running Firefox v9.0.1 under Win7 Home Premium 64 bit, with a dual core T4400 from Intel (Core 2) CPU clocked at 2.2 GHz, 3 GB of RAM.

    This is a new (mis) behavior for FireFox.
    Problem appears as periodic, temporary freezing of the FireFox UI.
    During these times (during the period up to 30 seconds), FireFox does not display a new, will not respond to mouse clicks, will not be rendering typed text. These gels can affect performance systemwide, degrade the performance of other applications, even with minimal Firefox.
    Initially, I thought that it was due to the mail MS Outlook Web app... but it isn't. The same problem occurs in Firefox sessions that have ever loaded a page from Outlook webmail.

    I made up a few screenshots of the CPU usage and posted the result here. I post a PDF file if I know a site that would allow anonymous posters (more or less) to download a.

    This page consists of images taken from the Process Explorer of Russinovich utility to show the use system resources. There is no use of I/O, which corresponds to the use of the CPU.
    Firefox is without doubt the offending application.
    Every 60 seconds, use Firefox picks of a CPU core, more than 90%. Use Firefox sometimes manages to spread in the second kernel as well (I don't know how he manages to do).

    Info from thread by thread of ProcesExplorer (at the bottom of the image) shows that this excessive use of CPU is not the case in a plugin. It is the form come Firefox, correct.

    As you can see in the treeview ProcessExplorer, I run the PortableApps of FireFox installation. But I don't think this affects the excessive CPU usage. After all, it is never used to do this. And now, after upgrading to v9.0.1, it does.
    In addition, a standard installation of Firefox on the same computer (8.0.1) does NOT have the behavior of excessive CPU usage.

    I'd appreciate any help you can offer to get the Firefox CPU usage to calm down again. I have several users who have switched to Chrome because of this bug.

    Everyone wants firefox run fast and hang free with a minimum of memory and CPU usage, but the ideals tend to conflict as much as Firefox is often used with many extensions and in all probability of tabs masses, which in turn could contain heary image takes over and maybe animations and video.

    Your original truncated screenshot had several containers of plugin, so little firefox was in a State of rest. You ae now mention webmail, and that conceviably would be a contributor to ramp upmemory usage and CPU spices then (CC & GC cycles) memory management.

    Regarding the differences between the use of the two profiles, you have these two profiles to compare, and can provide clues.

    Unfortunately troubleshooting tends to fall back on

    1. from firefox in safe mode and a clean profile.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    Safe mode disables extensions in Firefox 4 and later versions, and disables hardware acceleration.

    If disable hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • Every few minutes, I get a message "not responding" and I can't do anything until he goes.

This always occurs when you browse through my e-mail, but it happens to other sites, whenever I have to type an entry. I have tried disabling all my modules and it still happens. I deleted Firefox and reloaded it and the problem persists. I'm about to go back to Microsoft Explorer, because it is too long to navigate in Firefox.

  • Some open programs appear as separate icon, but some don't

    Hello

    Among the programs that are pinned to my task bar create a storage icon in the task bar while they are open - this was the behavior up to Windows 7. However, most of my programs which are pinned in my taskbar does not create a second icon, while they are open.

    For example, there is an icon for FireFox on my taskbar. I click on it to open an instance of FireFox. It is open, its icon will 'only' is highlighted, but there isn't a second FireFox icon.

    However, if I click on the Safari icon that is also in my bar task, it will appear as a second icon of Safari which is always displayed to the right of the icons that are pinned in my bar tasks.

    Like I said, this is the normal behavior until Windows 7 while most might be thinking this is normal but I like this new behavior of Windows 7 where the icons of open applications are highlighted as opposed to cluttering my taskbar with "redundant"icons."

    My question is how do applications behave like any other?

    Thanks for your help.

    Sam

    P.S. I have also observed that the 'old' behavior seems to occur only with the Apple software i.e. Safari and iTunes. Thank you

    No, no, I'm sorry because I don't understand the point = P. Now I get the thing. Sorry for the previous posts, I have not the thing.

    For the No. 1 behavior is normal, as the icon pinned to the start highlites.

    #2 behavior: You click on the Safari icon, and will appear another icon, right?
    Try this: click on Safari. When it is opened, right-click on the icon that represents the open Safari (not the one that represents the shortcut). Click on pin this program to the taskbar. Then pin the shortcut to the taskbar. Try the same thing with iTunes. If this does not work, try adding (PIN) of the program to the taskbar for all programs in the start menu.

    "I hope that I have now right it your problem =).
