Why is Firefox 12.0 slowwww then?

Links take foreever to open.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

If you have F - Secure browser Protection then see:

Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if it works.

  • Why does Firefox Mac returns 'Server not found' for a website but Safari on Mac same load site without any problems?

    The financial company Web site www.gmo.com will not appear in Firefox 32.0.02. Server not found is the only result. Safari loads Web site without any problem and Firefox for Windows computer in the House support the site without problem. All the other sites I have access, including banks, Amazon, etc. loads normally.

    What/why the Mac of Firefox version would not be able to to connect/load this site?

    The company of people told me that no one else has reported this problem and other people in my company can access the site. And they cannot reproduce the problem.

    My ISP provider could not see anything from their point of view. And access all computers to the modem/router in the House everything without any problems.

    Anyone have any ideas on what would cause this or how to go about troubleshooting?

    Thank you for your time.

    Looks like it's something on the computer. There are cookies that must be removed individually from the Firefox profile.

    To do this, go to the Firefox Menu, tap Preferences, then tap privacy and then delete cookies or cookies see the. You can search the sites that gives you problems and remove them. Restart Firefox.

    It could also be that you add a DNS server for your connection. 8.8.8.8 is google, but I don't know if this would affect given that the server is not found, not that there is no link, that's why it does not sound like a connection problem, but a cache problem. Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

  • Why is Firefox always update my browser when it is configured to never updated?

    Three months if you are using Firefox version 15.01 I asked the same question (which is still published here on Firefox support at > > https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/933437?esab=a & s = why + does + firefox + update + my + browser & r = 7 & as = s < <) I was wondering why my browser has been updated despite being configured to never update and told me.

    All 15 Firefox are beta right now. The Stable of Firefox version (now) is Firefox 14.0.1. Go to www.getfirefox.comand download the final version of Firefox it. Uninstall the beta version and then install the downloaded.* version you

    I've apologized for my ignorance and passed to the most recent stable version 16.01 and faithful to the word of Firefox Support, did not have my browser updated since... last few days when I first noticed the browser has been configured to be updated. I was overwhelmed by this discovery, but let it go, leaving some one-time glitch. But when I logged in again, the configuration ever update that I put my Firefox version 16.01 was still once configured to have set browser to date.

    I'm logged on and outside many times since and every time despite having set to never to be updated was in a position to update.

    So my question is, despite the use of the stable version of 16.01, how can I stop Firefox update my browser and even more annoying, how I've let him walk back after that I have disable the browser up-to-date?

    I love Firefox too never give it up, don't like Chrome, certainly not, IE what version
    a Firefox user since 2005.

    Any help, assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.

  • I uninstalled Firefox on my computer, then I reinstalled and tried to run, but this message appeared, "failed to load your Firefox profile,"

    I uninstalled Firefox on my computer, then I reinstalled and tried to run, but this message appeared, "failed to load your Firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible"and Firefox does not open.

    I tried press windows key + R on my computer and open %appdata%\Mozilla\ - and rename the folder labeled "Firefox", but he said that "the action cannot be complete because the folder or the file that is open in another program" I didn't open it and try to restart the pc, but still no help

    A likely cause is a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

    • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
      C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

    You can use one of them to make the Creation/use of a new default profile for Firefox:

    • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
    • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
    • Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

  • I have to be able to open many profiles at the same time. Chrome for this. Why not Firefox?

    I knew that there are years you may have multiple profiles in Firefox, and given that Chrome is really stuffy handling games like Farmville 2 lately (don't know why, but Firefox is the browser recommended Zynga anyway), I decided to set up the profiles of boards and profile shortcuts. But there is a BIG problem. With Chrome, when I put in place of shortcuts to profiles that Chrome allows you to do in a single click, by the way, if I have a profile already open, I can open windows in all separate profiles using their shortcuts. In Firefox, I can't. If I have an open profile, the other shortcuts simply open windows in the same already open profile. This is not acceptable. It's not as if profiles are in the same directory. They are in separate directories and that there should be no problem with the opening of two or more profiles at the same time.

    You can use the - No.-remote command line switch to open another instance of Firefox with its own profile and run multiple instances of Firefox at the same time.

  • Why Mozilla Firefox uses Google as their search on the web if Google stores everything we look for?

    Why Mozilla Firefox use Google as their search engine if Google stores everything you are looking for and tracking what you do online? I have nothing against Firefox, I wonder why.

    This partnership is as old as Firefox itself, but each user can use any search engine they cars not to use - no reason, you should use Google simply because it is the default in Firefox.

    The search engines in the search bar can be removed.

    The search engine used in the Awesome Bar can be changed through subject: config.

    The search engine on the subject: home page can be changed, although not as easily as with the Awesome Bar.

    As to 'why', who knows? When Google offered to help Mozilla with financial support through their search engine is the search engine by default for Firefox, Mozilla had to say no to something that any other search engine is also at this time?

  • Why does firefox 16.0.1 allows me not to click on the buttons in the top 40mm under the banners, if I can get to them by tab to a button, and then press 'Enter '?

    It doesn't matter what web page I'm on, top 40mm or so of the screen is a dead zone to click on buttons or links. for example, in Google, I can click a link further down the page and are transferred to the new article - but if I had to move the element to the top more near the top of the page the link would no longer operate.

    I can go to a link by repeated use of the "Tab" key until the button or the link is shown and then press 'Enter' to use the link, but this is potentially very time-consuming if there are many links on the page.

    I use a Toshiba Satellite L750 loaded with Windows 7 and Firefox 16.0.

    Problems with the buttons and links at the top of the page does not can be caused by an extension as the toolbar Yahoo! or Babylon that spans both down and covers the top of the browser window and therefore links and buttons in this part of the screen not clickable.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

    I found it. I saw a strange "free file converter" program in my program configuration panel. I noticed that popups had a banner announced a free file converter, which had the same icon as the one I had seen. I went to my computer program section and did an uninstall. I didn't uninstall and then tried to take me to their Web page. I have X'ed the page before it got far and clicked on finish on the uninstall program. The problem has not shown since. I have no idea how the file got there.

    Hi R - VR

    I work for SUMO, but I'm not a developer of Firefox. So unfortunately I can't solve your issue.

    This forum is not for questions of programming, but I don't know the right forum to ask them. I'll send a Firefox developer who might know the answer, or who knows the appropriate place to ask this question. And I'll ask him to respond here.

    See you soon!
