  • Downloaded updated Firefox and now I can't open Firefox at all, it keeps telling me to reboot. I have rebooted 5 times. Any ideas?

    I had Firebox 3.6 Just downloaded the updated Firefox 9.0. Everything seemed to run fine in the intallation but I can not open the browser. It keeps prompting me to reboot to finish the installation. I have rebooted and shut down completely. It continues to prompt me to reboot. I really need the brower to open, I'm going to lose all my bookmarks and I hate Internet Explorer.

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that 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.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    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've just updated firefox and now it will not open at all. Please help!

    I use gmail and a couple of days ago I started having trouble accessing it and in fact any google related site. Apparently my version of firefox was not supported so I updated to the current version this morning but then found that firefox would not open at all. There are no error messages. I have tried restoring my settings to those of yesterday but although my system says I have returned to the old version 3.5.15 it still will not open. I can now only access the internet by using an ancient version of Microsoft Internet Explorer - which is also not supported by gmail. Although I'm limping on I could really do with some help!!

    Perhaps give one of the following documents a try:

  • Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router

    Recently I update Firefox and now I can't acces to my router main page any more.
    Before I get a window that ask me to add an exception, cause the certificate ... as I check the remember the exception it always ask me for the exception. was not so bad as I have ask any time for the exception and finally I have acces to it . But now NO WAY !!!
    I still go to internet, all my computers are connected but I could'nt reach the router to change some settings and add news computers ( my settings are very secure on my router to add a device I have to enter the MAC address). I still get my printer at 192.168.3.141, the modem at 192.168.1.1 but when I want to go to the router main page 192.168.3.1, I get this message :
    Secure Connection Failed
    An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.3.1. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s). (Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
    I read that FF change some settings on the new versions and last time I enter on my router without problems was on October 10.
    Now I have installed the 33.0.1 my OS Is XP.
    PLEASE HELP WITH THAT ISSUE
    EDIT: I suspect that my problem have to be with the certificate manager because I see it change a lot on this version, and have a place to add exception security like the old one that I use to have to check in the past.
    it look like the same problem as me:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1042889
    I don't understand almost nothing about certificates then I didn't find any tutorial explaining how to deal with. Also I sow that was totally diferent have some ssl things to check and now is a OCSP ??? for me all still chinesse (lol) I only want someting very simple: reach my router !!!.
    I only see on authorities many times my router address, I try to add an exception and say the certificate couldn't be found. I don't know how to play with all this settings , but I'm shure have relation to my problem.
    Sorry, my english it's not the best.

    [SOLVED)
    @the-edmeister That work !!! thank you very much. I have to put it at SSLv3 option to this work.
    I have a question for you. How I could figure out to work with that in the future? could I add an exception on the certificates? or something like that to still let me enter on my router web page? or how I could figure out to make any change on tomato router to still work with the new standard? .

    I updated Firefox and now Realplayer can't download any videos( download button in upper right corner of video don't pop up and there is no download option if I right click) if I use Internet explorer it works fine, I also went in to make sure I had it checked to pop up it is?! So it's not just youtube for me its all videos!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the last firefox update
    ''locking due to the age of this thread''

    haven't tried it myself but saw this earlier in a blog somewhere:
    "try retro installing FF v3.6.3",
    makes sense 'cos I've only been experiencing the same problem with mozilla & realplayer combo since updating to latest FF v3.6.4
    noted that under IE realplayer plugin still works fine, button to 'download this video' comes on as before.....
    from what I read retro install will pick up all your bookmarks etc. do no worries there
    naughty, NAUGHTY mozilla people! you were 'bombproof' until today....what happened? good luck sorting it out though!!!! I still luv you!

  • I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated.

    I updated Firefox and now it will not open at all. The hourglass shows that it's working but then nothing. I went to add/remove and removed mozilla and reinstalled it and still the same thing. It worked fine before I updated. Now I can't even remove the program at all. Why is this happening?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    Mine does the same thing occasionally, is your phone jailbroken? Sometimes it will work if you delete the book and reinstall it or put your phone into airplane mode then turn it back off.

  • I updated Firefox and now I can't attach files to an e-mail in gmail. I have tried multiple files with no success but have no problems in Chrome.

    See above.

    Try to clear cache and cookies by doing the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

  • I just update Firefox, and now I can't get Greasemonkey D of A Powertools to work! my computer, but it still won't come up. HELP! Is there anyway for me to go back to the earlier version of Firefox that let me use this?

  • I upgraded to 10.0.1 on my macbook pro and now I can only open a single window -- what happened?

    Since upgrading to 10.0.1 I have not been able to open more than one window in firefox. If i have a window already open going to "open" does nothing. This is extremely frustrating. I'm using a macbook pro.
    I remember this happening some time ago and the fix involved setting an option somewhere ...

    It's been so long since I bought my macbook pro in August of 2010, but I do remember the iwork disk that had pages, numbers, and keynote on it, but I can't find the disk in my closet.  I did not realize that when I took my computer in to the genius bar to upgrade to Snow Leopard, and then to download Yosemite, that I would lose these applications.  I had no reason to open pages when I emptied my hard drive to upgrade to Snow Leopard, so I don't know if I kept iwork when I upgraded to Snow Leopard at the Genius Bar.  I had file vault on with my external drive on, and since removed it before the upgrade, but now all my documents are unable to open on my external drive.  ****.  So now the new problem is how do I undo file vault in a new OS 10.10 when encoded in 6.8?  Can I take my external drive in to Genius Bar?  
    I bought my macbook pro at Best Buy, but can't remember if iwork came with this computer, or with an older mac I bought.  Can anyone check to see if I have a valid key code, and will insertion of an iwork disc allow me to use pages with Yosmite?

  • Until very recently I used to be able to open multiple browsing windows in Firefox, but now I can only open one window & if I close down the session & try to reopen Firefox it doesn't open

    I can restart Firefox only after rebooting my laptop.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")<br />

    Firefox doesn't install new versions of plugins, but Flash may update itself automatically.<br />
    You are still one version behind on Flash, current is Flash 10.1 r85<br />
    If the Flash player didn't update properly then you need to download the full version and run the installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as ...)
    Flash Global Notifications Settings Panel:<br />
    *http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.html
    You are more versions behind on Java updates with having Java 6 U11, current is 6 U22.
    *Java Plug-in 1.6.0_11 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)
    Update the [[Java]] plugin to the latest version.

  • Downloaded update for Firefox and now I can't get rid of AOL.

    Downloaded update for Firefox and now I can't get rid of AOL. I have tried to delete anything associated with AOL and when restart Firefox.....there's AOL again. I even reinstalled Firefox.......there it was again.

    Where does AOL show up -- home page?
    I think the first thing to check is whether you have any AOL-related add-ons. These might override your regular settings. You can review and disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Note that in most cases, you need to use the Restart Firefox link to actually deactivate the extension you chose to disable.
    Next, to fix your home page, try the steps in this article: [[How to set the home page]].
    If there is a problem with your search providers being switched from Google to AOL, try this extension:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Any improvement?
