Spin the ball of death, have checked all add-ons

Hi, use Firefox 40.0.2 on a Macbook Air the ball of spinning of death all the time recently and have only on Firefox... other browsers are ok. When I disabled all add-ons, the spinning ball will stop. When I laboriously disabled and tested one at a time, the ball turns never went away. How is that possible? Is there anything that I think not or anything else I can try? Here are the screenshots of all my Add-ons. Thank you!!

Maybe it's time to try refresh (called "Reset" in older versions of Firefox) which can resolve many issues by restoring Firefox as his default from factory and save your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.

Note: When you use this feature, you will lose all the extensions, toolbar customizations, and certain preferences. See article Firefox Refresh - reset modules and parameters for more information.

Refresh for Firefox:

  1. Open the troubleshooting information page using one of the following methods:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      and select troubleshooting information. Should open a new tab containing your troubleshooting information.

    • If you are unable to access the Help menu, type Subject: support in your address bar to bring up the troubleshooting information page.
  2. At the top right of the page, you should see a button that says 'Refresh Firefox' ('reset Firefox' in older versions of Firefox). Click on it.
  3. Firefox closes. Once the update process is complete, Firefox will display a window with the imported information.
  4. Click Finish and reopen Firefox.

Before updating, you might want to take note of your Add ons that will be deleted.

This corrects the problem? Please report to us!

Thank you.

  • The drop down menus work intermittently; all add-ons are disabled.

    When I run the cursor over a menu item; File, Edit, history, etc., the drop down menu does not decrease. If I click on the menus, drop down menus will appear and then disappear.

  • I used him copy / paste to add several checkboxes on my form, but now in preview mode when I check the first box it automatically checks all the boxes.  How can I stop this from happening?

    I used him copy / paste to add several checkboxes on my form, but now in preview mode when I check the first box it automatically checks all the boxes.  How can I stop this from happening?

    For later use, it happened because your fields have the same field name, and fields with the same name automatically have the same value.

    So all you had to do was so each had a unique name and it would have worked, but using the command create several fields is preferable because it renames the fields for rename you them.

  • Firefox keeps crashing outside the safe mode (reset, uninstall-reinstall and disable all add-ons do not help)

    I've actually had this problem for over a year now with previous versions. The browser always crashes just after that I start it, but it seems to work fine in safe mode. I tried to reset the Firefox, disable all add-ons mode security and reinstall the application, but none of these methods does not seem to work. Here's the accident reports I after you have installed the latest version of tonight:

  • Even if I have to many Add-ons, only present in my module bar (Adblock Plus). I use Firefox 18.0.1.

    Here are two ways I tried to solve the problem, but not avail, unfortunately:

    Files deleted from my profile as shown on a mozilla support Web site and restarted firefox folder.

    With the help of Revo Unistaller is a deep uninstall (not only removes all the firefox program files but also some registry entries, the user prefs etc), rebooted the machine. Downloaded and installed Mozilla 18.0.1 and added all add-ons that I use mainly. I also tried to use the classic theme of the compact, but back to default to try to solve this problem.

    Not all extension place buttons on a toolbar.

    Some extensions add entries to the main menu and others for the context menu appearing when it applies to the situation.

    Are what extensions you referring that not displayed?

    Alternatively, you can check for problems with the file localstore.rdf.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
    While you are in safe mode;

    Type of topic: preferences #advanced< enter > in the address bar.

    Under Advanced, select General.
    Find and stop using hardware acceleration.

    Search web sites secure. Are there problems?

    Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that turns off temporarily
    hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables
    -Add-ons (extensions and themes). If the problem disappears,
    that tells us something. If it is not the case, this tells us something else.

  • Until I disabled all add-ons, 'New tab' did nothing! Any thoughts?

    {No Biggy}

    NEW TABS.

                           The New Tabs box was totally unresponsive until I restarted Firefox with all Add-Ons Disabled.
    
        The main Add-Ons used were, FlashGot \ with Internet Download Accelerator (IDA), and 1 or 2 resizing tools, to reduce page size which was constantly oversize.
    
        Anyone care to shed a little light on what they think is a probable reason(s) why this occurred?
    

    If it works in Mode safe mode and normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) off and then try to find which extension is the cause by allowing an extension at a time until the problem reappears.

    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit ' (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit)

  • What is the difference between extensions and Plugins and Add-ons?

    I'm sorry if here is not the right place for this post.

    What is the difference between extensions and Plugins and Add-ons? Apparantely, they differ in some sense or aspect, but I do not know how. Please, if it is not too complicated, explain in detail and simple language. Thanks in advance to 1 million.

    Kind regards

    Hi Danesh,

    You should take a look at this article for an explanation. Plugins and extensions are essentially types of Add-ons as well as of the characters and themes.

    Hope this helps!

  • Turn the ball of death since the El Cap download

    Since the upgrade to El Capitan, I had a ball of constant rotation of death very frequently. This happened almost never with Yosemite.

    Hi there Art!

    It seems that your system experiences performance problems after upgrade to El Capitan. I would use these steps to help you nail down if it's a disk problem or maybe a runaway program causes a problem:

    OS X El Capitan: If your Mac runs slowly

    Your computer startup disk has perhaps not enough free space on the disk. To free up disk space, move files to another disk, and then delete files you no longer need the startup disk.

    Exit all apps that you don't use.

    If you have problems with your disk, use disk utility to verify and try and solve problems.

    There is no Google apps that are pre-installed or included on an iPhone, so I don't know exactly what you mean by "original". "."

    However, if, on your iPhone, you go to the App Store, tap updates down to the right, press 'Buy', then select 'not on this phone", you will be able to see the applications that you have downloaded in the past are not on the phone.

    You can also search the app store by "Google". Or find the Gmail in the App Store application, then press the button "Related" for other Google applications.
