When opening Firefox I get a Java Scripts error message and Firefox will not always open

When opening Firefox browser I get an error message from JavaScript Application: "TypeError:components{cid} is undefined. Sometimes the Firefox browser will not open; sometimes it does. Very annoying!!
Richard

This can be caused by an add-on that says it is compatible with Firefox 4 but isn't quite compatible. This thread has more information: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/729606 Javascript pop errors stating: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].
Does that help?

  • When I click on firefox I get a java script error that says "TypeError: Components.classes[TvtPwmComponent_CID] is undefined", what does that mean?

    Whenever I click on firefox, or when a pop-up occurs, I get a java script error that says, "TypeError: Components.classes[TvtPwmComponent_CID] is undefined". I don't know why. It first occurred while I was on ESPN while trying to watch college games live.

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

  • When opening new page on latest version, I get two Java Script error messages.

    Mac Snow Leopard
    Error Messages are:
    [JavaScript Application]
    Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) [nsIFileInputStream.init]" nsresult: "0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://1clickweather/content/js/utils/filemanager.js :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 233" data: no]
    I hit OK then:

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab.<br />
    You need an extension if you want to open a page in that tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • When logging into FaceTime I get an error message and it will not log in.

    After downloading Lion, when I tried to log into FaceTime it kept giving me an error message,
    'The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later.'
    This is with multiple AppleIDs and my ID works on other machines.

    Having same issue here!

  • After the most recent update for my Wndows 7 computer, every time I load a page I get a Java script error message. How can I fix this?

    The pop-up window states Error: Syntax error. This happens on almost every page that I load. It's also happening on my windows xp laptop... and it seems that it has something to do with the most recent Microsoft updates that just went through.

    hello Kakkirox, this error message is likely caused by your social fixer addon. please go to http://socialfixer.com/blog/category/releasenotes/ and update it to the newest version - this should fix the issue...

  • When you go to File and click Send Link a small box appears with an error message and it will not send the link.

    See above.

    Hi,
    Please try this: '''Tools''' (or '''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Applications'''. Look for or start typing '''mailto''' in the search box and for the '''Action''' change it to the desired mail client (the application that opens up in Explorer) if the value is different.

  • Updated to Firefox 35.0 recently and I keep getting a Java Application error message everytime I pull up a new page

    This is more of a heads-up rather than a ques
    tion.
    I recently update Firefox to version 35. My computer operating system is Windows 7 Starter. Since adding the update every page I pull up I get a Java script error message "Error: 'console' getter called on an object that does not implement window interface."
    I followed the steps for trouble shooting extensions and managed to isolate the problem. It was an add-on extension for Youtube Auto HD 1.4. The message no longer pops up.
    I hope others out there find this helpful.

    Sorry didn't noticed it was solved.

  • When opening firefox 3.6.8 I get a java script error at line 323

    When trying to open Firefox 3.6.8, I get a java script error:
    [JavaScript Error: "dir is null" {file: "file:///C:/Users/My%20Computer/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/lk5mbar9.default/extensions/%7B0538E3E3-7E9B-4d49-8831-A227C80A7AD3%7D/components/nsForecastfox.js" line: 323}]' when calling method: [ffIDiskService::get]
    If I cancel the error message, FF opens, but then my google search bar will not search & then FF freezes up. I'm using Windows7.

    That is a problem with the Forecastfox extension.
    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).

  • Trying to update iTunes but keep getting the error messag "the url could not be opened" when it's always worked fine in the past. What does this mean?

    Trying to update my iTunes but keep getting the error message "the URL could not be opened" what does this mean and how do I resolve this? It's always worked fine in the past!

    Select a broken track and press ctrl-i to Get Info. Look on the summary tab for the location where iTunes "thinks" the file should be. Where is it really? Post back the two locations and I can suggest the best approach.

  • Recieving java script error messages

    Every time I open Firefox, I get a JavaScript Application error message that says; Error: TypeError; CSSAndUICompatability_avg.ShowUIElementsByFilter is not a function

    That could be due to Malware. Check the [[Is my Firefox problem a result of malware]] article. You should probably download and run both [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free Malwarebytes] and [http://www.superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html SUPERAntiSpyware].

  • My macbook is loaded with microsoft work and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    my macbook is loaded with microsoft word for macs and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open. This is what it says:
    The application Microsof Word quit eunexpectedly.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    The joys of Microsoft!
    Maybe the preferences file is corrupted.  You should be able to find the Word preferences file in the folder:
    your user name/Library/Preferences
    Its name is com.microsoft.Word.plist
    I suggest you drag this another folder and try Word again. 
    If that doesn't work then you might find clearing the cache files will fix the problem.  You can do this manually but I never bother. Instead I use a program like Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner (shareware) or Onyx (free). These programs do lots of other maintenance jobs so it's worth having at least one of them.

  • When I want to get an app, an error message comes up saying I need 3.0 software update.  How do I get my ipod updated in itunes, when itunes says my ipod is already updated?

    When I want to get an app, an error message comes up saying I need 3.0 software update.  How do I get my ipod updated in itunes, when itunes says my ipod is already updated?
    OR if I cannot update to software 3.0, how can I find apps that will work just for my ipod touch?

    It sounds like you have a 1G iPod Touch, in which case you can only upgrade to iOS version 3.1.  Here is a link to purchase the update.

  • App Store can no longer be opened.  Immediate crash and error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem"

    App Store won't open, error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem".  I haven't been able to update anything for a week or so.  I have used Disk Utility, Drive Genius, deleting the .plist, all to no avail.  My Mac Mail hasn't worked since the upgrade to Mavericks.  Mavericks can't see my LaCie Cloudbox.  Can any of these be solved by me? 

    I have the same error "XXXX App cannot be opened because of a problem". And I also cannot open iTunes and get the error "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes."
    Only Apple apps seem to be at issue here...
    Repairing Permissions did not fix this.
    I noticed this after the last Software update. Is there no fix other than re-installing?
    Not happy that an Apple software update killed all my apps...
