I can't uninstall Firefox from my computer. I have XP and go to Add or Remove programs, but when I click on Firefox, it just sits there!

My tech guy told me to uninstall Firefox and I've tried about 5 times now, but it won't go away.

What kind of problems do you have that you need to uninstall or possibly reinstall Firefox ?
Most problems are not solved by reinstalling Firefox, but are caused with problems with the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]

When I try to load firefox it only shows in the bar at the bottom of the screen. I can highlight it but when I click on it, it just returns to the bar.

When I try to load firefox it only shows in the bar at the bottom of the screen. I can highlight it but when I click on it, it just returns to the bar. Can't get it to maximize. Please help.

The "System Tray" is located at the very bottom right of your screen and is a list of most/all running applications that will show in this list.
For your SysFader issue, this "may" be the problem:
1 Find the "My Computer" desktop icon and right-click it. A pull-down menu will appear. Select "Properties."
2 Click on the "Advanced" tab. This will load a new page of options.
3 Select the "Visual Effects" tab at the top of the window and deselect "Animate Windows when minimizing and maximizing," "Fade or slide menus into view," "Fade or slide Tool Tips into view" and "Fade out Menu items after checking."
4 Click "OK." This will remove most if not all of the Sysfader effects, at the same time correcting related errors that used to come up during opening a new file or program.

How can I uninstall ePrint from my computer?

I downloaded ePrint for Windows 8 and now I cannot print. This is ridiculous! My printer is an HP Laserjet P1006 and when I try to print a document, my printer doesn't even come up as an option. My printer does not support ePrint. I want things back to what they used to be. I am really angry at this and HP for ruining this. Please someone help me. I need to uninstall ePrint from my computer.
This question was solved.

If HP ePrint is not showing up in your Uninstall a Program window then follow these instructions:
1. Open devices and printers folder.
2. Right click on the HP ePrint printer > On the pop up menu, click remove device.
3. Highlight any other printer in the folder > go to the top task bar > click on Print Server Properties
4. The Print Server Properties Dialogue box will open up. Click on the Ports Tab.
5. Click on Change Driver Settings (box at the very bottom left) > find the HP ePrint driver. (screenshot shots both steps)
5. Click Remove > Remove Driver and Package Dialogue box will open up > Click on Remove Driver and Driver Package.
This should complete the uninstall process for you.

How can I uninstall mozilla from my computer I can not do it from my uninstall program

When I signed on to my computer Mozilla Fire Fox will not come up therefore not able to get into my favorites or anything. I do not know what happened and I can not uninstall from my computer and need to get it off so hopefully I can reinstall and get it to work.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I haven't got Wi-fi or a sim card in it but that doesn't matter because I've already downloaded 1 album and it works. How come these songs won't play?!

I recently updated my iphone software to 6.0.1 and my ringtones did not get added back to the phone. I have connected my phone to my pc to sync but when I click to sync, it does nothing. How can I get my ringtones back on my phone?

I recently updated my iphone software to 6.0.1 and my ringtones did not get restored. The ringtones are lised in my library but I can't get them added to my phone. When I click on the button to sync my phone, it does nothing.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try unchecking the tones and syncing, then re-checking them and syncing again.

I can't uninstall Bonjour from my computer. It keeps giving me this error message "The installation source for this product is unavailable. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it."

I have been trying to upgrade to the new iTunes and it wont let me beacuse it cant find the installation source. So I tried to uninstall everything manually, and it wont even let me do that!

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?

I just upgraded to Firefox 4 and I get this error window that displays off and on screen this what I can read " ug-in object: TypeError:" and the second line "id] is undefined" but when I click the OK button the Firefox opens ok. What's wrong?

I'm running Mac OS 10.6

I also have the same issue with McAfee SiteAdvisor and FF4 on a MacBook Pro running the latest version of Snow Leopard. I have put in a service request with McAfee and will update this post in approx 48 hours unless they respond sooner. Seems like a far to common app to somehow have "missed" testing on a browser release that was scheduled for a while.
