Hi,
Recently my sound stopped working in Firefox. I have tried a range of different videos, all attempts with the same outcome, no sound.
I have checked speaker on taskbar and made sure Firefox sound was enabled. I have also updated my adobe flash player and tried disabling some plugin incase I had a conflict but still no sound. :(
Any ideas how I can fix this problem?
Ok, sorry about that, was just checking!
I would uninstall Firefox completely.
Backup your bookmarks with this; http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/
Then reinstall from here; http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/f.....uirements/ which is the version I am running without issues

Jim, had no probs with 13 at all, all my addons work and the crashing in 12 stopped. I did do a complete reinstall, not the update channel though.
It certainly cured the 'not responding' in the header and the many crashes I was experiencing.
One problem I did come across was the 'all in one side bar' which is now on its way to the landfill site!

Good morning Mike. I'm glad you're having good luck with it.
Actually it's the first Firefox browser I've installed and liked but MAN it really screwed up my system.
All I can say is that it must have installed a virus or malware that trashed IE9.
Of course I created a system restore point before I installed FF.
Unfortunately the Restore point failed to fix my PC even though it reported that the restore point was successful.
SOOOO, I restored with a backup image I had created just 2 days prior to installing FF.
No luck. IE9 was still messed up so I did another backup image that was about 2 weeks older. NOPE, no luck with that one either because IE9 was still trashed.
Well I only had one more backup image which was dated 03/17/2012 so I ran it and Viola!! It restored everything back to normal, although I had a lot of windows updates to install.
Nightmare was finally over.... Whew!!

Jim, Good afternoon.
'SOOOO, I restored with a backup image I had created just 2 days prior to installing FF' !!! Thank the lord for imaging.
Just to note Jim, FF of late has had a Whew problems with updates and they are/can be a pain in the proverbial.
Have you tried http://www.palemoon.org/ this is my second choice for browsing (lesser problems). I run both because they are setup in different ways
Mike
Hi Mike. Yes, Thank GOD for backup images.
As for Palemoon, yes I have tried it but I didn't like it because it didn't seem to have an option to import all my favorites/bookmarks plus it had such a plain-jane look I dumped it.
Heck, I've tried just about every browser out there at one time or another and I just can't seem to find one that I like.
I don't know about FF updates but I read something yesterday on some website (can't remember the link) that said FF13 has a huge bug in it that causes huge problems for some and for others the browser works like a charm. Go figure. My thought was "Huge bug? Yeah, no kidding!". LOL
Jim
Jim, you did not, your input is important.
This is how I did it FF to PM http://download.xmarks.com/download/all
Yep, tried em all IE (I need for certain web access/work), Chrome (yuk), Mathlon (erm much bloated), Opera, worried about the email interface, and Safari...well I went on one once. Never again.
I'm pretty sure cas34 is watching with interest.....
''''Huge bug = Huge hug''''
