I installed the new Firefox version but it does not open on screen..

It does not automatically open on completion of the install and it does not open when I click on the logo on my desktop or Quick Start bar. It looks like it is starting but nothing happens.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same result.
When I try to uninstall I have to shut down first or the uninstall tells me firefox is running. Starter manager does not show this.

Why not?  What happens when trying to use it?
"Will not work" is useless when asking for help.  Without specifics, no assistance can be provided.

  • I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC transfer program. CS5 started up on the new computer OK, but now does not recognize raw files. Should I uninstall and reinstall again?

    I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC mover ultimate. CS5 appeared to start up normally, I had to insert the serial number from my original CD. However, now the program does not recognize CR files and Adobe bridge is not working properly.  I get messages that CS5 needs to be updated, but the updates fail. What should I do? Should I uninstall CS5 on the new computer, uninstall CS5 on the old computer using the original CD, and then reinstall CS5 using the CD on the new computer?

    Transferring programs does not work well with Adobe applications.  You should install them.
    As far as having the program on different machines goes, you are allowed to have two activated installations so if it is working on the original machine there is no reason to remove it unless you need the space.

  • I uninstalled the old version Firefox then I tried to install the new one. But it asks me to restart my computer to completely uninstall the old version. I had tried to restart my computer for few times but i still cant install the new firefox version.

    I cant install the new version. Everytime i tried to process the program it asks me restart my laptop.

    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).<br />
    If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.
    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * 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 elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I am trying to unistall firefox 20 and install the newest firefox version but it won't unistall. It remembers all my data if I install again.

    I am trying to uninstall Firefox 20 and get the newest version which I think is version 21? It will not let me unistall it when I go to the start menu and hit on unistall a program and then choose Firefox. It shows, " Please wait while firefox is unistalling," but it never uninstalls. The green bar never moves. I tried to uninstall it manually and then install firefox 21 but then firefox 20 came back up (after I installed the new version) with all my saved data. It looked like it did before I uninstalled it manually, or thought I did.
    I don't want any of my data. Just a fresh page!
    I just want the firefox startpage, no google, yahoo, etc... I can't figure this out. Apparently, i am more technically challenged than previously thought!
    If anyone can help, please let me now. I run Windows 7 pavilion notebook.

    *Clean Reinstall
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • HT204365 The new IBook version for iPad is not opening PDF files. Is it going to be fixed?

    The new iBook 2.1.1 version for iPad is not opening PDF files. is it going to be fixed?

    It is not broken. It works for me and it has always worked for me - every version of iBooks in every version of the iOS that I have ever run on my iPad. Therefore - I do not think that it is broken - or it would not work for me - and for countess others using iBooks and the current iOS version 5.1.1.
    What have you done or tried to this point in order to get rectify the situation with iBooks? Have you restarted your iPad, quit iBooks completely and then tried again? Rebooted the device? Uninstalled and reinstalled iBooks?
    Anything at all?

  • Installed Maverick, installed the new iphoto version but it is still not working.. What should I do?

    Hi there!
    I installed Maverick on my macbook pro and iphoto wasn't working anymore. So I did the upgrade on my computer (version 9.5.1) but now when I open Iphoto there is a message saying :
    "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.
    Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete."
    So I still can't access my pictures and I'm scared to loose them all if I do that upgrade... Is there any thing I can do to go back to the old software???
    Thanks for your help!

    Make a back up. Bluntly, only an idiot updates anything without a back up.
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
    Then click yes, and upgrade the app as it requires.

  • Firefox will no longer open on my Mac. I have tried downloading the new 7.0 but it does not prompt movement to the application folder. How to I make it work?

    I have tried multiple times to update the firefox7.0. It appears to download fine but I never get a prompt to move it to the applications folder. Now Firefox will not open at all (it was functioning sporatically over the past several months). How to fix?

    AFAIK cameras offer their own built-in format utility for inserted SD cards.  You should use that.  Otherwise, refer to the manual that came with your camera to determine precisely how your SD cards need to be formatted to work properly.  Personally, I'd suggest Partition Scheme: MBR, and Filesystem: FAT32.
    Try to limit the number of formats you perform on the SD cards, though, as you're reducing their lifespan.  I believe formatting causes re-writes to a portion of the SD card that has fewer read/write cycles than the rest of the card as a whole.

  • Im using 10.4.11 and Ive updated to the new Firefox Version and now can not use Firefox? How do I get my Firefox that I had back?

    That pretty much says it all in the question..
    Thanks

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • How can I extend the time I am timed out on the new Firefox version?

    The new version of Firefox which I recently installed times me out after a very short period of time. I can I extend the time that Firefox times me out to at least one hour of inactivity.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == right after I installed the new Firefox version today

    If you have an Exchange account on your iPad for which the admistrator has specified a limit on how long you can set the auto-lock, the only way to change it is to remove the Exchange account. Once you put the Exchange account back on, the restriction will be back in place. Apple has nothing to do with this.
    Exchange admistrator often require that devices be passcode protected and that the device will autolock so they delete the "Never" setting.

    Are you referring to Australis? <br/>
    http://people.mozilla.org/~shorlander/files/australis-designSpecs/australis-designSpecs-windowsXP-lunaBlue-mainWindow.html
    Firefox Nightly 29.0a1 has that new User Interface. But Australis won't be in a release version until Firefox 30 or 31, well into 2014.
