• Firefox keeps "Does not respond" when I try to load anything

  When I close and open Firefox again when I go on a website and for example I'll click on a picture, it doesn't crash but it does not and after about 30 seconds it works, often happens now and I reset my firefox but still it keeps it and it's quite annoying. After awhile, it seems to install and it works, but I rather would not happen because this has never happened before.

  NOTE that selects the solution does not work for everyone, maybe it's not a problem of fx 16
  _{Comment by a moderator of forum-J99}

  It seems to be something unique to 16.0.1.

   I tried all the usual things, rebooting, uninstalling and downloading 16.0.1 and even resetting Firefox to its defaults, but all to no avail.  It just kept freezing and saying 'Not Responding' for about 30 seconds, happening so often as to make the browser effectively unusable.
  

  Finally, I uninstalled 16.0.1 and replaced it with beta 17.0

  That did the trick, and now it works quite well.

  Seems that there is a bug in 16.0.1 that Mozilla needs to fix. The update of 16.0. 16.0.1 hurry too soon?

• Why Firefox Sync does not work on my home network, but at work?

  Firefox Sync on my laptop does not work when my laptop is connected to my home network, but for example if I'm at my desk.

  The internet connection in my house is fine, I can surf the web with this same Firefox on IPv4 and IPv6, DNS etc. also works. Connection to accounts.firefox.com works also, as Firefox for the sync account. Only the synchronization process runs aground. On my desktop at home, I have exactly the same problems. When I open https://sync-209-us-west-2.sync.services.mozilla.com/ in a browser tab, I see a confirmation message that synchronization runs on this server, so apparently the network path between my computer and this server is free.

  After investigation with Wireshark, I see the TLS negotiation successfully, then packages the client was able to respond and after some time, the server closes the connection (encrypted alert). Apparently, no content is transferred between the client and the server. I have attached a screenshot of how Wireshark sees the conversation between the server and the client (sending pictures here did not work so I put on the web: http://ibin.co/1zXABHKdj5mA).

  To exclude a possible configuration problem or bad module, I created a clean Firefox profile and logged into my account in Firefox, but this shows exactly the same problems.

  Fun fact: Firefox on my Android phone will sync on my home network.

  Below, I will link two logs, a successful synchronization (corporate network) and a synchronization failed (home network):
  Sync @ Office: http://pastebin.com/rZmfrbdL
  Sync @ home: http://pastebin.com/a3KUCevJ

  The problem seems to be with your ISP - you can refer to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1118958 and they may be able to find a workaround by changing your diet or to help you configure a different MTU for the network.

  I hope this helps.

• Why Firefox 5 will not see the Windows Media Player Plugin?

  Hello useful Mozilla expert,

  When I click on a link to play a standard WMV video in Firefox 5, in the movie player window it is said 'Click here to download the'.

  When I click on 'Click here to download the plugin' in Firefox 5, I get a panel of Firefox that says I need to Windows Media Player 11, but I already Windows Media Player 12 and the browser Firefox WMP plugin installed on this computer... it worked fine in Firefox 3.6.

  If I then click to install the Windows Media Player 11 plugin, it goes to another Firefox sign that says: ' no plug-ins have been installed, Windows Media Player 11 - no available '. Then, there is a "manual install" button, and when I click, it takes me to a third party plugin site called 'InteroperabilityBridges.com' which has a plugin Firefox WMP dated April 2007 available.

  Here is the link he gives... http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/Windows-Media-Player-Firefox-plugin-download

  When I check my Panel "programs and features" in Windows 7 on my control panel, I can see that I have already installed something called, "Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin" installed and it is dated 10/24/2010 and it is version 1.0.0.8

  Despite having already the required plugin installed and showing in my control panel, programs and features, this WMP plugin does not appear on my plugins Firefox 5 Panel. So I tried to re - install with the installer of origin and available to the above URL Setup (they seem to be the same, except my installer of origin has a date of 2010).

  I also tried the 'fix' option in the setup of the plugin... it still does not appear in Firefox 5, nor this browser will play a WMV file in the integrated test related troubleshooting page plugin Mozilla WMP player, or other pages that embedded the WMV players.

  So the question is, why is Firefox 5 demanding I install a Windows Media Player plug-in older, version 1.0.0.8 of 2007 when I have already installed...? and why it won't work?

  I went through all the troubleshooting information in Mozilla and go to the page dedicated to this subject and nothing works...

  http://blogs.technet.com/b/Port25/archive/2007/04/16/Windows-Media-Player-plug-in-for-Firefox.aspx

  What is the solution? The upgrade again for the 3rd time in the last 2 months, this is not an option... I'm tired of going through all the difficult steps of the upgrade and find what has changed and rejected another upgrade of the browser Mozilla and re - install plugins, extensions, modules and customizations and repair everything that does not work, as I always do now with Firefox 5.

  It seems that as soon as I get most things squared away in a new browser from Mozilla, then they came out with three new releases, so when I'm still struggling with the FF5 version (as I am now) there will be version 9 I get annoying constant 'reminders' upgrade to.

  Thank you

• Why Firefox icon is not displayed in my browser?

  Then at the place where it says file I used to be able to see the Firefox Logo, now I'm more, why? The reason why I ask this is because 01/06/2015 a program called Crossbrowse showed on my computer, is an undesirable element that I can't get rid of, and I was wondering if it has something to do with the missing logo, took over my settings?

  Current releases (29 and following) the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the bar of three Firefox Menu button at the right end of the Navigation bar in Firefox and this button are always visible if the Menu bar is visible or hidden.

  You can enable or disable switch title bar via the "Title bar" button at the bottom left in the palette to customize window.

• Is why firefox doesn't not save already passwords stored after upgrade to 33.0, all settings appropriate to have this happen are selected and have been in the previous version.

  After that I upgraded to 33.0 FF, none of my previous website names to user or password have been saved when I rode the. None! I have reviewed the FAQ answers and looked carefully at my 'Privacy' settings and they are all together to get FF to register user names and/or password. My cookies settings are «remember history...» "-" don't forget search... story '-'accept cookies... " "" Accept third-party cookies / never - and "Keep until I close FF" "

  I need to select ' keep up: they expire ' for cookies?

• Why Firefox (ONLY) does not require approval (Microsoft user account control) to work with Windows 7?

  The 'pop-up' Microsoft Security window began to show two days ago, whenever I start Firefox. No other program does require this authorization. There has been NO change to the computer (hardware or software).

  Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.

  Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".

  Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

  • Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
  • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected

  Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) folder.

• Why Firefox 5 does not read the video tags HTML5?

  Trying to get HTML5 video to work in Firefox 4 and 5. It does not work. I used Fireogg to process the video, but all I get is a large "X" on the screen. The code I am using works in Safari, Opera and Chrome. This has happened for months now and I don't appreciate having to go through hoops to do such a simple thing for Firefox. This is absurd. All other browsers work. Find the code below.

  You are welcome

• Why Firefox 4 does not support Norton Passcards?

  Download Firefox 4 and find it does not support the State of Norton toolbar. This means that I can't use Norton Passcards so that he has always worked with the previous version. If I go back to version 3 cards working again? If this isn't the case, I'll have to uninstall Firefox and return to Internet Explorer.

  Symantec made an update for their Add-ons to work in Firefox 4, but they only reported them as being compatible with Firefox 4.0, they need to update them to let their work in Firefox 4.0.1.

  While this is either not currently a feature of Firefox Sync, that can be included in a later version.

• Windows 7 Professional 64 bit constantly "not responding".

  As requested by Adam - Support Engineer starts a new thread to an old unsolved problem. Windows 7 Professional 64 bit constantly freezes showing a message "no answer." The gel can last from 10 seconds to a minute about. It happens with all the applications on my system, including but not limited to: IE, Windows Explorer, Notepad, All Office 2007 Pro (MS Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.), MS Calculator, MS Solitaire, Editpad, Acrobat Reader,... I tried all of the suggestions I found that applies to my system. Nothing has worked. I reinstalled Windows at least half a dozen times.

  System Specs:
  MB - ASUS M4A79T Deluxe rev 1.02 G
  BIOS - worm 3205
  Processor - AMD Athlon (TM) II X rev 4 965 RB - Black edition C3
  Video - ATI Radeon HD 5870

  (SATA) HARD drive - backup - Seagate ST3160812AS
  DVD - LG GSA-H55L
  DVD - LG GSA - 4163B

  I forgot to update this. If anyone is interested the problem was hardware related. Have 2 players of DVD IDE was originally the system sometimes does not detect or lose contact with one or two hard drives. I've had the same 2 DVD connected to an another MB before the upgrade and they work very well together. I changed the old to a dvd SATA and that solved a problem. Don't know if this is a bios or Windows issue. The second problem was that the video card cannot have been well installed. This MB has a foam strip along the Panel of e/s that I really had to compress in order to align the screw holes in the Mo with those in the case. This fact is difficult to insert the cards, because there is not much space for the mounting bracket slide between the Mo and the case. I had to really force to get it in. To make sure that the video card was sitting properly, I loosened the screws MB, installed the card and then tighten the screws. This also gave permission, that I need to insert a USB 3.0 card later without having to fight with him.
