Hi: I'm trying to use the Find My iphone feature on the icloud website. It works fine with Google Chrome and IE but when I go to the icloud.com/find page when running firefox 7 or 8 I get this message: "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete. Script: https://www.icloud.com/system/cloudos/en-us/1FCS29.34215/javascript-packed.js:27" Any suggestions? Thanks.

So I have been having the exact same problem, as soon as apple went to the "icloud." Previous versions of the Find my Iphone site worked fine....

Anyway, to TEMPORARILY SOLVE this problem you can deselect the option "keep me logged in" when you are logging into icloud.com. For some reason this enables everything to work fine, when using the find my iphone site.

If you are like me, and chose that option the first time:

Go to Tools in a firefox window.options.privacy tab.remove individual cookies(looks like a hyperlink middle of the page). then search for and delete all the icloud.com cookies.

Login to icloud.com, and make sure not to check the option to "keep you logged in"

Again its a temp fix, but it makes all the difference if you need to find your phone. Hope this helps, Tom
