  • Is there an explanation why Firefox became slow after I upgraded my phone Android 4.0?

    On the previous version of Android (2.3; Gingerbread) browser was really great, but now it is slow. Loading pages is fine, also the rendering of images. He moves within websites that are slow. Firefox usually records the movement, but only moves when I release my finger from the screen. This is the only problem I have, but unfortunately our brands it is unusable at the moment.

  • Firefox starts slow, but works well in safe mode with all the running addons - why?

    Then... all of a sudden my Firefox (v. 38.0.1) is really laggy, with slow-to-respond buttons, scrolling etc. So I manually disable all addons, but nothing helped. Then I try safe mode and it works very well. Large. So I turn on my addons again one by one, until they are all allowed and it still works fine. My conclusion: it isn't the addons. What is what is the cause? I have updated all my addons and just Silverlight, Flash, Google updater, Shockwave and some others.
    One solution would be for this mode - Safe with addons running - being my default start mode, but I can't work out how to do it. Is no huge problem because I can make Firefox work perfectly, but it's a little bit of your time.
    Any ideas?

  • Firefox is slow

    I was running firefox 37.0.2 with kaspersky antivirus 2013 and zonealarm pro and had no problems. After that I updated to kaspersky antivirus 2015. I tried to start firefox and it took a long time to load up. When I try to search something on google, it takes a long time to load a page. So I tried to refresh and it didn't work so I tried to upgrade to the latest version of 38.0.1, also did not work. So ive installed kaspersky anti-virus 2013 again and again, firefox is slow. Ive tried refresh characteristic, clean the cache, clear the acceleration hardware and even went to firefox 34. None of them worked.
    When I run firefox with Pei firefox.exe and select a profile, firefox works fine, but when I launch it from bar tasks, it is very slow to start to the top and loading pages. And when I try to delete a profile, it ask me to delete the files. If I try to do, it freezes as well. So I can only manually delete new profiles.

    Thanks for the help. I removed kaspersky antivirus and zonealarm firewall pro and installed kaspersky internet security and it works well. I think the last patch of kaspersky antivirus 2013 (patch L) is causing a conflict with zonealarm pro.

  • 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.

  • Firefox is slow--particularly unresponsive in private mode

    Firefox is slow to respond. Particularly bad in private mode. Have tried all the recommended fixes. What now...

    What have you tried?

    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 startup window Mode safe or make changes.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • 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.

    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

  • 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 the update did slow my MacBook pro down so

    Why the update did slow my MacBook pro down so much? What could be in the last update of El Capitan to slow my Mid 2010 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro 2.66 down so much?   He has never run it slow before! Everything takes more time in all areas. Could I have made a mistake during the download and installation?  If so is it possible to force a re - install the latest update?

    I don't know if I can restore back after an update of this size. Everyone has similar problems or have thoughts on what could be wrong? I know it's far from being a State of the art Macbook Pro. But it was working fine before the update.

    Any thoughts would be really appreciated. I can't afford to buy anything newer right now.

    You may need to use questions Troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode (click on "Safe Mode" and reading) to locate the problem. Firefox Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, place you in the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > Themes before start Safe Mode. When you enter Safe Mode, do not check all the items in the window, just click "continue mode without failure." A test to see if the problem you are experiencing is fixed.

    If the problem does not occur in mode without failure, then disable all your Extensions and Plug-ins, and then try to find out who is causing by allowing both the problem reappears. You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change via file > restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use 'Disable all add-ons' on the start safe mode window.

  • Is the another great category why my computer is slow?

    I get a lot of beach and the General slow balls spinning this month.

    One thing I checked last week my storage status. 237 free GB to 999 GB and 618 for which is the category "other"!  I hate this wave "other" category. Here is a screenshot.

    You can see that I have barely keep anything on my internal drive. I don't have a lot of applications. The ones I use regularly is Mail, Safari, Lightroom and Photoshop.

    A few years ago I learned about a procedure in disk utility to completely erase the disk space, but when I went to do, I couldn't find more, as El Capitan got rid of him. Is there something similar I can do?

    Is this large amount of yellow on the bar as alarming as it looks and probably why my computer is slow?

    Thank you!

    p.s. in another thread, I will post about a glitch that happens with my trash. Maybe it's related.

    The function of Secure Erase of Trash was removed to El Capitan. One of the reasons was that it worked as expected. The other is that it reduces the life expectancy of the SSD.

    I would suggest your download and install OmniDiskSweeper. When you rum ODS, it will tell you the names of the files and folders that use the most space. You can then decide for yourself or ask us what can be detected or moved.

    The first step in the process must be a full backup of everything.
