I tried to update to 3.6.14 but it was unable to install the update & tried a complete update with "patch apply failed" as a result. it is not listed in the 'unistall program" area of my Windows Vista. how do I uninstall and reinstall Firefox?

I have no other issues withmy computer as I have used PC's for years and am quite familar with their operation. teh questions pretty much says it. After attempting to updat firefox is totally unreliable shuttign down eityher after a few seconds or a few minutes never longer. I curently have version 3.6.13 and the update for 3.6.14 will not install due to a " patch apply failure" as mentioned. I have Windows vista currently and use firefox for the online assignments I do with school, least amount of compactablity issues.

Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,
Mario

  • How do I get rid of the blue "downloading the latest applications" bar which won't go away even after uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox?

    Can't get rid of the blue "downloading the latest applications" bar that seems to be just hanging and won't go away. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but the bar is still there after 2 days. I updated something (can't remember what!) on I.E., and it had the same blue bar, but it had a box I could x out of so it went away on I.E. I don't know why the blue bar is there on Firefox, as I did the update while on I.E.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated an application while on Internet Explorer.

    Annette,
    #In the menu bar, at the top of the Firefox window, Go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions.
    # Locate ''each ''of the following extensions by name and click the disable button
    #Restart Firefox as prompted and see if the undesired toolbar has been removed.
    #The extensions to disable are: '''Crawler Toolbar''', '''MP3 Rocket Toolbar''', '''MSN Toolbar''', '''Search Helper Extension'''
    If you don't need some / all of those toolbars, consider leaving them disabled.
    You can probably remove these toolbars permanently from Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs.

    After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. I suspect corrupt software.  How do I uninstall and reinstall the software?  Adobe's on-line instructions are only for Window devices.

    You can just drag the file to the trash. If you want you can remove  the pdf plug-in from the internet-plug in folder, but that should not be necessary to correct your problem.

  • I am unable to install the latest version of iTunes on window xp?

    I am unable to install the latest version of iTunes on window xp. I get "The application has failede to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem".

    This may be all we know, but the new discussions keep coming in, so I repaet my post of this evening:
    With all the discussion about problems with iTunes 11 for Windows, there is also now the problem of downloading the 11 install file at all. On 2 diff computers today, I have tried to download installer and it gets to "save file" then when clicked simply disappears. Nice magic trick, but not helpful to a long-time (and mostly happy til now) user of iTunes on Windows. If there are such serious problems with the installation and function of this "new" version, what the hex is Apple doing? A new corrected release? When? why all this mess wirth a program that has always worked? How about some answers Apple?

  • I have downloaded the new update for Firefox 3.6 and now cannot connect to the internet. I've checked my firewall and have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, but nothing works.

    After installing the new update for Firefox 3.6, no matter what I do, I cannot connect to the internet using Firefox. I can get on the internet using my other browsers (Google Chrome and Internet Explorer), so Firefox is the only one that doesn't work. I have already checked my firewall and have added and removed Firefox from my firewall to no avail. I've also already uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but so far it hasn't helped.

    I have already tried removing firefox from my firewall. Even when I do that, my firewall doesn't detect firefox and prompt me to add it. And when I manually add it, it still doesn't work anyways. I've already tried the link as well, but it has been unhelpful. :/
    I'm not sure if it matters, but a few weeks before this, I did download Microsoft Security Essentials.

  • Firefox won't open pdf files; uninstalled and reinstalled Firefoxes, updated all extensions,etc. still getting error messages.

    When I attempt to load a .pdf file, a window pops up reading "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (4:4)"
    I have tried rebooting the computer, uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, making sure all plug-ins are updated (they are), disabling every other plug in to see if it was interfering (they weren't -- still got same message), and reinstalling adobe reader (and flash, just for good measure).

  • I couldn't update Firefox so I attempted to do an uninstall and reinstall Firefox 12.0 on Mac OS X 10.7.4 keep getting message A copy is already open.

    I attempted to uninstall and reinstall Firefox get message Firefox already open

    I could not open Firefox 13.0.1 when I updated to Mac OS X 10.7.4
    I receive the following prompt:
    '''A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at this time.'''
    I created a new OS user:
    System Preferences> Users & Groups> click on the "+" symbol, bottom left to create new user & save profile.
    Log out of current profile and log in to new OS user profile.
    Open Firefox in new user to see if the application opens.
    In my case the application opened. I then logged out of the new user profile and logged back into my old profile & followed the directions in the following weblink:
    The following link resolved the issue:
    '''http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Accessing_the_Profile_Manager'''
    Scroll down to: Accessing the Profile Manager > Mac OS X
    Close the application completely and make sure that it is not running in the background. Assuming the program is installed in the "Applications" folder, launch Terminal ("Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal") and enter the command starting with / after the prompt in Terminal:
    (Firefox) '''/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -profilemanager'''
    I then deleted the old profile and created a new profile.
    I was then able to open Firefox.

  • How do I uninstall and reinstall all of iMovie 10.0? When launched the screen is only a blank gray window.

    I was in the process of editing a video and the screen when to random lines.  After a restart, the computer is fine, but iMovie won't start up anymore.  When iMovie is launched there is only a blank grey window that is shown.  The menus are still accessable from the top of the screen, but the window never changes.  I deleted iMovie and reinstalled it from the App Store, but when launched the same thing happens. What other items need to be deleted and reinstalled? Has anyone else had a similar issue?

    I have a MacBook Air with an Intel HD 3000 graphics card.  To clarify, I was able to install and use iMovie 10.0.  Something happened while I was working in the program and iMovie crashed.  Now when I launch iMovie I only get a grey window, that typically would have shown the library of projects and preview screen.
    In old school Mac, there were preference files that could be corrupt and might need to be deleted.  But, I'm unfamiliar with all the extra files that have been installed when iMovie was installed.

  • My itunes wont work in WIndows 7.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but it doesnt' work.  It consistently won't open, freezes, or opens and will play songs but only comes up as the shape of itunes in a kinda see thru box. Any tips?

    My itunes won't work on my Windows 7 anymore.  I have already uninstalled and reinstalled SEVERAL times, but to no avail.  It consistantly freezes, won't open or doesn't work correctly.  The only way I can get it to close anymore is to go to the task manager and 'end process' itunes.  I do get an error at the beginning saying " the registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing.  This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software.  Please re-install itunes."  I have searched the internet for possible fixes to no avail.  Please help...anyone!

    Lets see whether this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?

  • How do I uninstall and reinstall the trial?

    I've downloaded PS CC and Bridge. It decided where to install itself, C:\Progam files. I can't work with anything with it there. I need to uninstall and reinstall without haveing to go through the long download wait. How do I do this?

    It decided where to install itself, C:\Progam files.
    On a Mac, and I have no reason to believe it being different on Windows, there is a moment in the procedure that lets you decide where to install it. Default is the standard application folder so if you missed this option for choice it will be installed there.
    I can't work with anything with it there. I need to uninstall and reinstall without haveing to go through the long download wait.
    Maybe the Windows guys will have a better idea but if you decide to use another drive to me the safest option would be an official uninstall and download the lot again. I don't know how it works on the PC but there are a lot of different components installed to various locations, moving the application folder to another folder is one thing, to another drive is maybe one step to far for consistent correct behavior of these pretty complicated applications.

  • Some websites are saying I need to enable cookies when it is enabled already. I already tried deleting the cookie, deleting all cookies, clearing my cache, and uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. How do I fix this?

    I am trying to access my school's library database. When I log in to access the library, it tells me that the site needs to verify me by sending me a cookie. There's a link to log in again, but when I click it, it says "404 not found". My privacy settings already have cookies enabled, and I tried deleting the cookie and revisiting the site but the same thing happens. I also tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it, but that didn't work either. I am able to access the library on my iPod Touch, and I've tried other browsers on this compute and I can't access them on other browsers either. So it is clearly some issue with my computer that is preventing me from accessing this library. I don't know how else I can resolve this issue and I need to do so ASAP because my inability to access the library off campus is severely hampering my ability to get my work done.
