Firefox stopped working a few months ago. Re-installation does not work. Help

Firefox suddenly stopped working. I have tried uninstalling numerous times during the last six months without any success. It appears to download and puts an icon on the desktop but clicking it does not connect me to the internet. Google Chrome and Explorer work but I prefer Firefox. Any ideas to solve this. I am running Microsoft Vista

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • When I copy and paste from Word to my e-mail using Firefox it changes the font and spacing to single and 10pt. It just started doing this a month ago. It does not do it when I am on my laptop or using Explorer. Help, I hate explorer.

    If this were a project that I was involved in, I would recapture the media at the correct frame rate and rebuild the sequences correctly.
    Moving from production, to post production, to delivery is a series of steps, and the success of any particular step is based on having all the preceding steps done correctly.
    Shortcuts and workarounds tend to create awkward and difficult problems, that often only surface late in the process.

    I purchased Lightroom from B&H Photo a few months ago.  I did not instal the software, because I was purchasing a new computer in the near future.  I am now purchasing that computer, but cannot find the software.  B&H suggested that I contact you directly to help me.  I have the receipt, and you can look to see that the program was never used.  It would be great if you could just send me another copy of the software.  Thank you very much.

    Download from Adobe's website
    Win: Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows
    Mac: Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh
    Install then enter your serial number when prompted.
    I have the receipt, and you can look to see that the program was never used.
    The receipt is only of use to B&H. Adobe will have no record of it.
    If you quote an Adobe Lightroom serial number then Adobe can confirm if that serial number has ever been registered. That step should not be required at this stage though. Just install the software.

    You do not have insurance.
    You do have a one year warranty on workmanship and materials.
    Call Apple and set up an appointment to have them look at it.
    They should fix it ot replace it for you.

  • Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

    adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
    If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

    jaroFocb'15 wrote:
    This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful!  My email:  [email protected]  
    Good luck.
    Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer?  It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
    <C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
    If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called:  PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
    If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website.  <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
    Hope this helps.

    I have a Serial Number which worked fine on my MacBook Pro but does not work on my desktop PC (Win 7).  What is the problem?

    You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you.  But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.

  • Adobe AIR 2.0.3 Installer does not work in Firefox 3.6.8 (win7/osx leopard) via badge installer

    Using the Air installer feature of the Air App Badge installer from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_badge_install.html
    does not work in Firefox 3.6.8 on both windows 7 and osx leopard 10.5.8.
    seems to be still functional in firefox windows xp and osx snow leopard 10.6.3
    To reproduce. without having air installed on your windows7 or osx leopard machine, go to http://www.tweetdeck.com/desktop/ and click on the "Download" button to begin air install. the "Yes" and "No" buttons are unresponsive. Air will fail to install.

  • I need to silently install the latest Mozilla firefox on Win7 machines, I do not see any .msi available and the /S or -S commands on the setup.exe installer does not work. Does someone know what can I do?

    I need the silent install of firefox for image deployment.

    For windows 7, you can use the -ms switch. For example, I have a batch file that works great. It contains the following:
    @ECHO.
    @Echo Installing Firefox
    @start /wait "Firefox Setup 3.6.10.exe" -ms
    However this does not seem to work well in windows XP. To get it to work in windows XP, I had to remove the spaces from the firefox installer and run the following command:
    @start /wait FirefoxSetup3.6.10.exe -ms
    If anyone has an easier way to get silent install working under XP (without renaming the firefox installer) please let me know!

  • How to fill out the clipboard under "about:support" when enter button does not work in address bar? Thearrow button does not work either?

    My enter btton does not work in the address bar or search engine. I have done the restart in safe mode...deleted and reinstalled firefox...done the malware/adware checks...still no improvement.
    I was asked to do the "about:support" then click enter for the clipboard to paste the system notes into. That is not an option however because the orginal problem is the enter button not working. Ideas?

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

  • Wireless Works during install.... Does not work after install.

    Hiya!
    I just finally finished semi-installing from live.  it's exciting.  I'm stuck at cli trying to get wireless to work.
    it's really weird.  First-  I only have wireless (it's from my downstairs neighbors).  I used it DURING the install process- downloaded all of the packages, etc etc. 
    But when I start up my computer, I get a [FAIL] by network (it does not start up).   However, if i # ifconfig wlan0 up, the wireless turns on. 
    iwconfig does not work
    and I cannot scan for networks...
    During install, I was able to see the names of every network. 
    There isn't any sort of password for the router I would like to connect to (and connected to before); it's just a linksys. 
    My wireless card is intel 5300 and I'm almost certain I installed the 5000 driver package. 
    Thoughts?
    Perhaps I should go to sleeeeeeep..
