MY energy and wasting my chances of earning a living as I author DVD's for people/small businesses. I didn't want to kill the process for fear that I would ruin the DVD burn if the program decided to kick back into normal function. My Encore has been stuck on NOT RESPONDING for the last 20 mins. After it finished rendering the videos, it began to process and burn them on to the blank disc.that's when it decided to stop responding. Right now, as I am typing this, I was authoring a DVD in Encore.

When it comes to Photoshop, Word or Firefox, usually the NOT RESPONDING lasts for a few seconds and then kicks back to normal, but then the program is sluggish for the rest of it's use. I'll be working in each program and after about 15-20 mins of a nice smooth work flow, suddenly these (and other) programs will say NOT RESPONDING. Ok, so I may be using a program like MS Word or Photoshop or, as I am currently using Adobe Encore to burn a DVD. This laptop is but a year old and the problems have been pretty much from the day it came out of the box. Step 2: Navigate to Extensions > Manage Your Extensions.I have the NOT RESPONDING issue happening all the time in EVERYTHING from programs to Firefox and Internet Explorer. Step 1: Open Firefox and go to the Add-ons menu.


If you have dozens of Firefox extensions installed, it can be difficult to figure out which one of them is causing the issue.īecause of that, the easiest solution is to disable all extensions and then enable only the ones you need one at a time. However, some might not be actively maintained, could be out of date, or develop incompatibilities with new Firefox builds. Using extensions, one can add more features to the basic Firefox interface and functionality. Disable Firefox ExtensionsĮxtensions play a vital role in the Firefox ecosystem. Choose any option and macOS will completely close Firefox. The system will ask you to Quit or Force Quit the app. Step 2: Select Firefox from the Activity Monitor menu and tap on the x mark above. Step 1: Use Command + Space keys and search for Activity Monitor from the Spotlight Search. Go through the steps below to completely close Firefox on Mac. MacOS uses Activity Monitor to keep track of all the services currently running on the device. That will close all running Firefox processes, free up RAM space, and allow you to relaunch Firefox.
