Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]] 
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

New Macbook Pro does not start up after updating...HELP!!!

Hi,
My new Macbook Pro does not start up after it got updated. The first time I used it, it was perfect. I updated it and restarted it when it told me to but it doesn't boot. It shows an apple and a spinning circle when it turns on but that's it.
Can somebody please help me?

You should probably post your question in the MacBook Pro discussions:

Firefox will not open at all. I only get the Mozilla Crash Reporter over and over.

After updating yesterday, Firefox will not open. I repeatedly get the Mozilla Crash Reporter. I've scanned my computer for malware, I've tried to open it in safe mode (it won't), I've completely uninstalled and reinstalled Mozilla, but nothing works. Each time I reinstall, I still get the Mozilla Crash Reporter. The program will not open at all.
I ran my crash ID. Here is the info: bp-eff196eb-ed21-45ee-83c6-e0fc42130123

hello, this crash is caused by Websense Endpoint security software that is running on the system. please try to install all the updates for this program that are available...

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5.

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5 on thin clients, also the internet proxy server usename is not accepted for java applets on webpages. However while using Firefox on the servers directly everthing works fine. This issue occurs on a server thin client environment, where the home directories are located on a 5 TB storage connected using SAS cables to the servers.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

IPhoto does not start up after upgrading

On my new iMac iPhoto does not start up after migrating. Upgrade from iPhoto 6/Snow Leopard > Lion 10.7.1 with iPhoto 9.1.5. When the conversion is finished I can see the new library, it works allright. And with packet-inspection (or how is that called in English) all maps & data seems to be OK; I can check the seperate pics.
But: iPhoto won't start up a second time (grey screen with infinite spinning wait cursor). The same thing is happening when I add a new library and drop in some pictures.
What can cause this problem?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

TD

i have to use "kill -9 PID" to kill all those 3 firefox-processes. this happens with me everyday when i try to access firefox. any solution ?

when i run it it asks if i wawnt to start a new session and when i click on any of the choices it hangs and nothing happens.
even in safe mode when it is supposed to start it stil hangs and no window is oppened...
this happened when i updated to firefox 2.0.0.4...
Make sure firefox is actually stopped (check "ps axww" output for it). Kill it if it's still running somewhere.
Check your firefox profile area for files named "lock" and ".parentlock". Delete them if you find any.

[solved]firefox does not start anymore: (firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING

Hi All,
Firefox has always worked on the laptop of my girfrind, until yesterday. When I run firefox from the command line I get the following message, and firefox does not start.
ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$ firefox
(firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use
ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$
Versions:

When I move .mozilla, firefox starts without problem, so there must be something wrong with the information in ~/.mozilla:
$ mv .mozilla/ .mozilla-moved
ingeborg@laptop:~$ firefox

Any Idea's how I can figure out what file is causing this problem in .mozilla?
What does code 4358 and 4852 from firefox mean?
Best regards,
Cedric

I have reproduced the problem:
1)Move (or remove) ~/.mozilla
2)goto this website : http://toolbar.zynga.com/install/farmville/
3)login with a valid facebook acount
4)Click install, and then click allow, install now, restart namoraka, restart, finish, and then click save and quit.
Now firefox does not start anymore.
Is it usefull when I make a tar file of .mozilla and post it here?
Best regards,

Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time when I start it although i have already set it so (on Macbook)

Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time, although i have already set it so (on a Macbook) (newest version)

If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I just downloaded Firefox 4 and I run Windows 7 Ultimate and it crashes before it loads up I double click the link and it brings up the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" everytime I try to start it.

Basically I downloaded Firefox 4 when it was a beta and now after it's been released and everytime I double click the shortcut or the direct link in the start menu and it shows my mouse with the loading icon and then it pops up the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" and I've submitted multiple reports and got nothing back and I now can't revert back to pre-4.0 Firefox to even just use it while the problem is rectified.

Your best bet would be to uninstall the BETA and install the actual release, instructions as follows.
* Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0] and download a fresh installation file to the desktop. If necessary, download the file with IE8 or 9, but choose to save it to your desktop when you see the prompt.
* Hit '''CTRL+SHIFT+ESC''' to bring up '''Task Manager''', go to the '''Processes '''list and see if you can find '''firefox.exe''' running in there. If you do, right click it and choose "'''Kill Process'''".
* Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to '''Mozilla Firefox''' and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
* Then reboot and delete the folder called '''Mozilla Firefox''' at this location: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
If you prefer to install the previous secure version which is v3.6.16, use the following link, otherwise the procedure is the same: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16]

I got a new Macbook pro in March and transferred all of my old files into the new macbook from my old one. But ever since then, my iPhoto just does not open up. It says 'error' every time I try to open it, but I am still able to attach the iPhotos saved to emails. Help! How do I get my iPhoto back?

Thanks, Sig.
The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem. Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page. Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them.
(I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

Try restarting your computer and your router.
