  • Firefox does not start in Windows Vista. It can be seen in the task manager that the process is running. But nothing happens. After deleting the process it still does not work.

    Are there any issues with Firefox 10 and Vista? IE works.

    Hi webero,
    There are no Known Issues that I am aware of. You should take a look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] and our article called [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox will not start].
    Hopefully this helps!

    when i run it it asks if i wawnt to start a new session and when i click on any of the choices it hangs and nothing happens.
    even in safe mode when it is supposed to start it stil hangs and no window is oppened...
    this happened when i updated to firefox 2.0.0.4...
    Make sure firefox is actually stopped (check "ps axww" output for it). Kill it if it's still running somewhere.
    Check your firefox profile area for files named "lock" and ".parentlock". Delete them if you find any.

    Same thing happens when i click restart.
    No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

    Did the crash reporter send any crash reports?<br />
    You can see the crash reports in this folder:
    "C:\Users\&lt;user&gt;\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
    See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br /><br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]<br /><br />
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"<br /><br />
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)<br /><br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox<br /><br />
    If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * 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.

  • After upgrading to Lion Image Capture does not work, even though it is intel software.  Gives error 9931.  What gives?

    After upgrading to Lion, Image Capture does not work, even though it is intel software.  Gives error 9931.  What gives?

    Ouch, if it is indeed damaged, then sadly you need to restore the whole danged huge OS!
    Didn't used to be this way before Lion/10.7.
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

  • Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5.

    Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5 on thin clients, also the internet proxy server usename is not accepted for java applets on webpages. However while using Firefox on the servers directly everthing works fine. This issue occurs on a server thin client environment, where the home directories are located on a 5 TB storage connected using SAS cables to the servers.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
    See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

  • Firefox does not start when I click, but consume a lot of resourcein task manager

    Hello,
    Since a few days, when I click Firefox, it does not start anymore (browser Windows does not appear anymore).
    Also, I noticed that after I click, my computer makes a lot of noise et becomes slow & gets almost blocked: I can see that in the task manager/processes, firefox is there and consume a lot of memory ressources.
    Can you help ?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Thanks for you reply. What you propose me is to create a new profile and transfer the files from the old profiles to the new.
    I am not interested by this option as I want to keep my current profile as I am using programs working on this profile and also have Firefox working on this profile.
    But I have a new information which might help. I did not see it during my last tentative but after a few minutes after Mozilla launch, there was like a bug report which were generated.
    I copy paste below. Hope that it can help :

  • [solved]firefox does not start anymore: (firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING

    Hi All,
    Firefox has always worked on the laptop of my girfrind, until yesterday. When I run firefox from the command line I get the following message, and firefox does not start.
    ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$ firefox
    (firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use

    When I move .mozilla, firefox starts without problem, so there must be something wrong with the information in ~/.mozilla:

    Any Idea's how I can figure out what file is causing this problem in .mozilla?
    What does code 4358 and 4852 from firefox mean?
    Best regards,
    Cedric

    I have reproduced the problem:
    1)Move (or remove) ~/.mozilla
    2)goto this website : http://toolbar.zynga.com/install/farmville/
    3)login with a valid facebook acount
    4)Click install, and then click allow, install now, restart namoraka, restart, finish, and then click save and quit.
    Now firefox does not start anymore.
    Is it usefull when I make a tar file of .mozilla and post it here?
    Best regards,

    <Email Edited by Host>

    As these are public forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support,  I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post - it's not a good idea to post it unless you like spam email.
    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account - a rescue email address is not the same as an alternate/secondary email address, they are different addresses/settings on an account.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    Thanks for your help. I had tried starting Firefox in safe-mode before I posted this request, but it did not work. I tried to restore the system to an earlier version, but that made everything worse. Two accounts were unusable and one sort of worked, so I reloaded the operating system and now firefox works, for how long, I don't know. But thanks again for your suggestion.

  • Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

    Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I deleted the password from the view password window.

    The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

    Can anyone tell me the root cause and workaround for this issue?
