You may need to reinstall Firefox if files in the Firefox program folder were affected.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*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.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • HT5037 I have just installed version 10.8.3 to our imac and now I can't open iPhoto.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I tried to upgrade it but it dosen't work

    Hello
    We recently installed version 10.8.3 to our 2 year old mac and now we could'nt open iphoto, it told us to install library upgrader, so we did and it still won't work.  any suggestions.?
    thank you in advance

    it told us to install library upgrader, so we did and it still won't work. 
    And have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader after you installed it? First run it, to prepare your iPhotLibrary for upgrading, and then launch iPhoto again to complete the upgrade of your library.
    Regards

  • Why can't I open or read my email in firefox. This problem started last week, and now I have to use internet explorer to read my emails.

    On Oct. 28th problem started when I went to email preview page and could not open or read any emails. I have been using Firefox browser for several years and never had this problem before the above date. If I want to read emails, I have to use Internet Explorer now.

    You may have zoomed the page by accident with Ctrl and the mouse scroll wheel.
    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.

  • Why am I unable to access my new Post Office Account they state that you will not allow and I will have to use Internet Explorer why?

    I have just opened a new account with the Post Office but I am unable to access this on the net. Telephoned Customer Services but say that I will not be able to access through Firefox and will have to use Internet Explorer. Going back to Internet Explorer is not something I want to do because I like Firefox, please explain why Firefox is blocking access if this is true. I have clicked 'allow' but it made no difference and the only message coming up is "timed-out" when I have been much less than 5 mins putting security details. Please advise. Paula

    I doubt if Firefox is blocking access. More than likely, that website is made to use ActiveX, or other proprietary Microsoft code, that only Internet Explorer can handle.
    If you post the address of that "Post Office" website, maybe one of us support helpers can figure out the exact reason for that.

  • SharePoint 2013 - document libraries and newsfeeds are visible when viewed using Internet Explorer running on the server but not from any other machine

    On a single Windows 2012 R2 server I have installed SQL 2012 and SharePoint 2013 SP1 with the latest update roll ups. When I remote desktop to the server using the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using
    Internet Explorer, I'm able to see newsfeeds and document libraries.
    If I connected to a separate Windows 7 machine as  the farm and site collection admin account  and open page http://server_name_here using Internet Explorer, I'm able to view the SharePoint pages except I cannot see any newsfeeds or document libraries.
    There's just blank space where they should be. I have repeated this process on several other machines that are not the server and get the same result on every machine (I've tried other servers, desktops, adding the SharePoint site to the trusted sites list
    in IE, even using firefox). I'm using the same account as I did when I logged onto the server directly. Any thoughts as to what's going on?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the idea, Harsh. What am I looking for?
    It is currently set to the default of http://server_name and http://server_name:port_number (the latter is for Central Admin).
    When I have access to the server, I have always done so the same way, using http://server_name. This was true when I access it from the desktop of the server itself and when I tried to access it from other desktops and servers (the machines where I had the
    issues with the libraries and feeds not showing up). Are there other values I should add?
    I have not tried to add http://server_FQDN as we don't plan on using that to access it but if you think it will help I would be happy to add it.

  • I have been using Internet Explorer and have now downloaded Firefox but cannot find my imported favourites. Where can I find them?

    I have now downloaded Firefox as my default browser and when downloading I asked for my favourites from Internet Explorer to be exported to Firefox. I cannot find anywhere on the Firefox site that allows me to open my favourites. Can you please advise.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • Firefox crashed, can't open it at all, having to go thru internet explorer to use computer. Crashed when two firefox updates were done. Refreshing and rebooting didn't work. How do I fix this so my computer runs again with firefox?

    We heard firefox had crashed, friend 4 hours away has same problem. She got hers fixed but even tho I can get a message that firefox is running , its not functioning so I can use it. Had two updates to do, one automatically, one I started at firefox request. Since then, we can't get on the internet or any programs. Unless you can tell me what's wrong, I'll have to have a computer company come in to fix problem.

    It is always a good idea to back up your bookmarks, if you are able to do that now it may help, and if you are considering using them in an alternative browser it may be a good idea to back them up as HTML as well as the default .json files.
    * see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    Have you read the articles shown in my first message above with the blue clickable links. One of the first things to try is using Firefox in firefox [[safe mode]] which should be available from your program list, BUT when trying that on the first dialogue do not make changes just click on continue.
    *Does that work ?
    * did you see the list of options and click on the continue button ?

  • Opened up Firefox this morning and can't open a single website....have to use Internet Explorer (oh the shame). I tried reinstalling firefox and restarting my computer. Don't know what else to do or why I can't get any internet on Firefox.

    Unable to connect
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.facebook.com.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

  • My email was downloading and the whole program froze. Now I can not open email. What can I do?

    How can I get my email to open? It seems frozen in middle of downloading.

    No. Not without access to a computer running iTunes. You do want to use your own computer so that you can restore from your backup and sync your own content back from iTunes.

  • I got of some cookies and now firefox can't open my web-mail from Medscape. I get "the page isn't redirecting properly" ..

    This problem started right after I deleted lots of cookies, trying to avoid the ad people from getting too much information. My email is from pol.net (from Medscape). I made sure my Privacy settings accept cookies. The problem also occurs in Firefox Safe mode. I even restored the Firefox applications (I have a macBook Pro laptop) from my external hard drive using Time Machine from a backup I did 2 days before I deleted cookies -- NO change, even though checking to see what cookies are on the system appear to show that all the deleted cookies were restored !! My Medscape people CAN access my mail from Firefox---I can't from my bookmarks or URL window using Firefox. The rest of my bookmarks seem to be unaffected. I CAN access my mail from Safari. Please help.

    Did you check the cookie exceptions ([http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Firefox > Preferences] > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions") ?

  • I subscribed to CC ( PS and LR). now i haven't used them yet as i deleted the downloads by my own stupidity. Now i can't open a raw file in camera raw using my own CS5. Also i can't find the link to download again.

    Every time i look at the Adobe link in an email I'm prompted to subscribe to the CC ( but all ready do) getting confused and help PZL 

    Hi Vicky,
    If you have a serial number for CS5 then you can download it via this link: Download CS5 products
    Also, make sure that it is uninstalled from your machine, Windows: Control panel>> Uninstall a Program

  • Dear Fire Fox. I take courses online and like to use your browser to do so. Because you don't allow cut and paste, I have to use internet explorer, frustrating

    can't cut and paste

    Hello,
    There are no hotkeys in Firefox that would stop copying and pasting from happening, so it might be caused by an add-on. '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *Cick the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
