After upgrade to 3.6.9 Firefox would not load

After allowing the update to 3.6.9 Firefox did not automatically reload.
Nor could it be loaded manually.
I restarted my pc to see if that made a difference.
A Firefox update box flashed up and disappeared (sorry I didn't see the detail.
Firefox would still not load.
I downloaded a new Firefox Setup (using IE) and reinstalled.
Works fine now.
Have others experienced problems with this update?

We are currently typing on the computer we have been discussing about in our microblogs; which is a Window 2000 Professional OS. Apparently, the problem is not completely resolved, because we removed the Firefox Browser from it. But due to the update, we are also experiencing Security Certificate Issues as well. Following the update on or around Sept. 10th, 2010, we notice that the Firefox Browser constantly asked for a security certificate verification on frequent web pages we visited. Well, apparently this situation is continuing on a totally different Internet Browser. This computer is clean of virus(es) & malware...so that is not the issue. We suspect that the update from Firefox may have change some internal security configurations in Windows Operating Systems. Noting the Comment from a Window 7 user, the Firefox Bug has possibly caused internal issues in all Windows Operating Systems.

After updating iTunes to latest version, Firefox will not load.

I installed the new version of iTunes that supports ios6 this morning. Right after that Firefox will not start. It flashes some kind of message in the lower right corner that I cannot read. Task Manager says it is running, but not on my screen.

Look in Processes in the Task Manager. If Firefox is running, you see firefox.exe in there. You can remove it from there.

I just upgraded to 4.0 and Firefox would not open

I then uninstalled and reinstalled--same result; now have downloaded 3.6.17 again and I'm up and running again.
Symptoms were: tried to launch program and it went into never-never land. Left for coffee and when I came back it was still not open (approx 10 min). Checked CPU usage which was pegged at 100% for Firefox.exe Nothing else was running. No window, no Firefox minimized bug on the bottom of the page, a big nada.
Too bad, Mozilla. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.
I don't need an answer. Just wanted to make a note. Hopefully something will be posted when the problem is fixed; otherwise I just won't upgrade.

Ok so maybe I am a little slower than most- but the solution is actually on the page referenced in the first reply- the key is, when the customize window is open, that is when you can click and drag the home button to the left side of the screen! You can't move it without the customize window being open, nor is the home button in the customize window.

Firefox would not connect after upgrade. Did system restore (XP) and not firefox wont even start

Firefox would not connect after upgrade from verion 6 to version 7. Did system restore (XP) and now firefox wont even start

Sometimes Firefox will hang during startup or shutdown, and still be running invisibly in the background. Usually in that case, you need to "kill" it either by restarting Windows or using the Windows Task Manager. It sounds as though you are familiar with opening the Processes tab, finding firefox.exe, and using End Process.
If you use an advanced firewall or other security software that tracks which programs are permitted to use the internet, please see these articles:
* [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]]
* [[Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet]]
A couple of other suggestions:
(1) Can you start Firefox in its Safe Mode? Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox. You should get a two-button dialog. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset). Any difference?
(2) In case your regular software missed something that is interfering with Firefox, try the scanning and clean-up tools listed in this article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]

Upgraded to 7.0.1 and then Firefox would not launch.

Upgraded to 7.0.1 last night. Firefox would not launch afterward. Hour glass appears for a few seconds then goes away. I can see on Task Manager that Firefox.exe appears in the Proceses list and then after a few seconds disappears. No browser, no error message. After going through every troubleshooting step I could find I removed 7.0.1, downloaded 3.6.23 from Firefox site and this works fine.

Very strange. So today I log in to my banking site and everything is working properly. Firefox tells me I am running the same version 8.0.1. Who knows! I guess I should just be happy that Firefox works as it should.

I have used Firefox on my computer for several years. Today, after upgrading to the new version, I was not able to open Firefox. I have tried several times uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox. It still will not open! What is wrong?

I have used Firefox on my computer for several years. Today, after upgrading to the new version, I was not able to open Firefox. I have tried several times uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox. It still will not open! Is the new version not compatible with Windows Vista?

I hope that link points to mozilla.com or mozilla.org
You will have to close firefox.exe with the Windows Task Manager from the "Processes" tab of the WTM since you don't have a widow to close.
The best way to close Firefox is through File > Exit, for those who stuck with the "Firefox" button click on the Firefox button then Exit. It is not perfect but it is a lot better than just closing the window with the "X" in the upper right corner

after upgraded to 3.6.6, firefox freezes on flash sites. After several right clicks it seems to unfreeze. Latest flash plugin already installed. Same happens on new profile & after clean mozilla installation. Any idea?

Thanks so much Anonymouseuser. This fixed it. Ironic that the plugin Firefox used to prevent freezes actually causes freezes. This so fixed my problem. http://www.technogadge.com/how-to-stop-firefox-plugin-container-exe-process/

After upgrading to mountain lion my calendar does not print in weekly mode anymore

after upgrading to mountain lion my calendar does not print in weekly mode anymore

I'm having the same problem with both my Vivotek wired network camera and Panasonic wireless network cameras. At first I thought this was an issue with the video framework in Mountain Lion, but if Firefox is working (I haven't tried it yet), it sounds like it may be an objective-c video library that has been changed. It's possible Firefox is using an objective-c interface that calls an objective-c function that isn't called by Safari or IP Camera Viewer, etc., (possibly a function that is on its way to be deprecated) or Firefox could use it's own library that directly calls the video framework.
Could be the Mountain Lion objective-c framework has a buffering issue.
Since this is occuring in both 3rd party software and Apple software, it sounds like it's an Apple issue. 3rd party applications typically utilize the Apple Developer objective-c frameworks to access video frameworks/libraries (for example, MJPEG). Thus, contacting 3rd party developers may not solve the situation (unless they can figure out a temporary bandaid--possibly figuring out the video framework call that Firefox uses and patching their software to do the same (not a simple task), but could still provide more feedback to Apple via their developer status.
Has anyone attempted to record from their cameras via iMovie or Final Cut Pro X HD? I will try mine later tonight to see if it records the hanging. If it does, then it's looking more and more like Apple's the culprit.
My suggestion is for everyone to file a bug report via http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

AFter upgrade, iPhone says tv show (HD) can not play on this iPhone

AFter upgrade, iPhone says tv show (HD) can not play on this iPhone . It is the SNL HD TV SHow will ferrel episode. DOwnloaded from iTunes.

when you bought it, did 2 versions download? For a bunch of shows I bought recently, I got 2 versions - a HD version and a standard (SD) version. To make room, I moved the files off my computer. When I wanted to watch the individual episodes on my iphone, I'd move the SD version back to the computer, and sync it with the iphone. After the recent upgrades - snow leopard, itunes 9, iphone 3.1, something got broken. When I would transfer the SD versions to my computer to sync with the iphone, for some reason something would rename the files with a (HD) tag at the end of the file name (even though they were the SD versions). Removing that tag in finder was all I needed to do to make it work. Odd.

After upgrading to 10.7.2 Mail do not store passwords

After upgrading 10.7.2, Apple Mail do not store mail account passwords and ask them again and again.
What I have tried.
1) When starting mail application and when it ask's account password and ask to save it, I have clicked the box. Only thing what happens is that, at Apple Mail ask's password at the end of the world.
2) If I do not click the box, when Apple Mail ask to store account password, Mail will continue running flawlessy and get new emails like before 10.7.2 upgrade. Of course, if mail is closed and started again, then the endless account password questioning start again.
3) If I open mail preferences and go to the accounts and add account password to the account password field and save it, nothing happens. Nada... Mail do not save account password anywhere and questioning passwords endlessly again.
This is very frustrating. I have work to do, and this ackward situation does not help.

Hi,
I experienced similar behavior (neither Keychain Access nor Safari would start, Chrome cannot access https sites, etc.). It got fixed by following instructions in this article:
http://www.macworld.com/article/163227/2011/10/fix_a_lion_file_opening_hang_in_m ac_os_x_10_7_2.html which I found in this thread: http://att.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=13625027#post13625027
Basically remove the ~/Library/Application Support/Ubiquity and restart. OSX will create a new one with the right permisions.
/cheers

After upgrading to Lion, my Canon 7d can not be found.

After upgrading to Lion, my Canon 7d can not be found. I have used the USB connection to connect to my camera for several years with no problems, until now. I have reset the SMC, by powering off the computer and unplugging everything for approx 30 minutes. There are no new drivers available and any assistance will be appreciated.

I was having the same issue after upgrading to Lion OSX. I searched the web and found many people had the same problem but no solution so...
I called Canon and they told me to run 'Image Capture' its part of the Canon Software Suite so you should have it and then try downloading the pictures like you usually do. I use 'Image Browser' and with 'Image Capture' running in the background it works perfectly now.
Hope this helps!!

After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

After upgrading to Mavericks my Mac Pro does not open my double CD drives when I hit eject in the menu bar it locks up (please Help)?

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

Firefox will not load to the web, even after 2nd download.

I have used firefox as a web browser because our school page works best with it. I have used firefox for over three months. This weekend firefox will not load. The screen message says unable to load web page, try again button is displayed, all to no avail.

I have XP Pro. I tried installing 3.6.15 and could not open it. I did a system restore and 3.6.14 would no longer open. I tried again installing 3.6.15 and got a message that the previous version had not uninstalled properly. Tried uninstalling.
As a precaution I used MozBackup to save my bookmarks etc. and also saved a system restore point.
I then clicked Start, My Computer, drive C, Program Files and deleted the Firefox folder.
I installed 3.6.15 and it is now working fine with all my bookmarks and addons loaded automatically.
