Why my Firefox flashed to all the time?

I installed the latest version of Firefox on the official site, I'm also re install the flash player for it but who do not have a lot.
Because of flash player, I can see the videos, images GIF etc in Firefox but can't stop flashing Firefox. It is consistently flashing and it flashes most during navigation, especially, when he opened in the background also flashing all over the screen.

Looks like this could be linked to the graphic acceleration and hardware. Please consider the following:

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

Then perform the following steps:

  1. Open the Firefox Options (Preferences on Mac or Linux) as follows:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      then select Options Preferences on Mac or Linux, or Windows.

    • In 28.0 Firefox and earlier versions, click on the Firefox orange upper-left button, then select the 'Options' button or, if there is no button up Firefox, go to tools > Options.
  2. In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
  3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
  4. Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

  • Now, Firefox crashes only all the time

    Firefox has slowed to a crawl... taken advice on the support page to delete and rename the file "places.sqlite" in Manager files in Firefox.

    Firefox does not work at all... ?

    Sorry to hear about the accident. If you get the Mozilla Crash Reporter form, your Firefox could have registered some data that would help to find the cause of the problem. You can submit these data to Mozilla and share with the volunteers of the forum to see if it points to the solution. Please check the support article "Firefox blocks - ask for help" to get the procedure to get these crash report IDs since the topic: block the page and then after the most recent here.

    Note: If Firefox is not stable enough to use the subject: page crashes, the article also describes how to check for submitted crash IDs disk report.

    Also, and/or at the same time, could test you mode without failure of Firefox? Which temporarily disables extensions, hardware acceleration, and a few more advanced features of Firefox that could make it more prone to crashing on some systems.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

  • Shortly after having downloaded a Firefox security update, I started seeing strange problems of coding. Firefox started crashing all the time.

    Crashed happened immediately after the opening, even in Safe Mode. I downloaded the latest version of Firefox, but that did not fix the problem. (Those early coding problems I saw were on 7 bars, etc.) Now I see encoding problems with Safari, which began to regularly crash on me. Need to finish a second thesis soon and that's very bad.

  • Why Firefox from writing so given all the time?

    I'm running Windows 7 x 64 and Firefox 8. In my task manager, I display the bytes of i/o to write to all processes. I found that Firefox is ALWAYS the process with the largest amount of bytes in writing, after that it worked an hour or two even though there are dozens of other processes. The only Web page is Google and all my plugins are disabled.

    Why Firefox from writing so given all the time?

    Firefox can be updated from the database of phishing protection or maintenance with other files as places.sqlite. It should be limited to a point if this was done.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem.

  • Why Firefox 23 keeps freezing briefly all the time?

    Firefox has suddenly started to block briefly for something like 3 seconds all the time when it updated to 23. He does something like every 10 seconds. How can I prevent the really annoying short gel?

    I found Skype click for the call module was originally of the gel. The only reason update 24 order to freeze because the add-on is not compatible. He started to freeze up again as soon as he became compatible so disabing add-on solved the problem.

  • My firefox restarts my PC all the time.

    Hello guys

    My firefox restarts my PC all the time.  It just hangs everything on the computer and restarts without stopping. What to do?
    

    I formatted my computer and I can't use firefox. It restarts my computer all the time, lock screens, freezes and shuts down the entire system.
    How can I remove it and stop the problems I can work normally.
    Can someone tell me what to do? Why is this happening?

    Concerning
    Suzana

    Windows restarts itself could indicate a device driver incompatibility, usually associated with your graphics card.

    Instead to start Firefox normally, hold the SHIFT key to get the Security Mode/Reset dialog box and start safe mode. Then switch your acceleration hardware definition here:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

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

    Safe mode automatically disables hardware acceleration, but this modification should enter into force when you quit Firefox and then start it again normally.

    Any improvement?

  • Firefox sometimes freezes my computer when I go to some sites for about 10 seconds and my hard drive is turned on all the time.

    This happened since I upgraded Firefox 3.6 Firefox 18 when it was released in the 23.0.1 that I have right now. When I go on some heavy such as yahoo news, browser specific websites and my computer will be blocked for about 10 seconds while my HDD is on all the time and the only info on: crashes gives me a link to a page called limitation, which apparently no longer exists. It happens that its manual or automatic cache on size and only seems to happen when its max cache. Depending on the subject: crashes, it happened only 4 times before I went from 3.6 to 18.

    Ive tried turning almost all my addons turned off and that did not work, Ive had harware acceleration turned off for a long time if it's not that. I still have all my plugins off except flash and it does not have anything to do with flash. The report of health of firefox it also count as an accident.

    I worked in fact observe that its almost always the comment system on the pages of Web sites such as disqus. IM blocking them just through them with ghostery and anti-ad element hider.
