After installing 4.0 firefox will not load from short cut or program

ckicking ico or program will not load. reinstall 4.0 works but when closed it will not reopen.

Do you get any error messages?
Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that there isn't a hanging Firefox or plugin-container process left in the task manager.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.

You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe mode:
*On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox

Firefox will not load any web page, other programs will. Continuously "connecting"

Firefox will not load any pages, but Google Chrome will. Firefox will 'load' the home page, but with any other site, the tab will continuously circle and say "connecting". I have tried clearing my cache, starting in safe mode, and restarting my computer. So far, nothing is working.

Update..when I open firefox from scratch, the main firefox pages on the home page seem to work. But as soon as I try to go anywhere else, IE going to a website in the address bar or even trying to access the defauly bookmark links, it just sits there loading but never brings anything up.

After installing mavericks, the iMac will not wake from sleep properly (at all)

I've upgraded to 10.9 (late 2012 21" iMac), and I notice in the morning when the iMac has been sleeping overnight, it will not wake up,
During the day, if it sleeps for a few hours, it seems fine, and wakes normally, prompting me to type my password,
In the morning however, I hit a key (on my wireless keyboard), and the display wakes up, I get a dark grey screen, and see the loading circle (not the beachball) in the middle, and see the cursor for a few seconds, before it then disappears, and reappears.
This cycle repeats itself,
The 'fix' is to do a forced shutdown by holding the powwer button until it shuts down, and then restart.
Anyone else find this problem/find a solution?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Explorer 8 was loaded after a XP service pack 3 install. Now Firefox will not load...

We had MS 2000 loaded but a client's site would only support Explorer 7 or above. We loaded XP with SP-2. Then we could not get out on Explorer, but could still get out on Firefox.
After this we got a SP- 3 upgrade request. After loading SP-3, MS offered Explorer 8. We did not check to see if we could still get out on FireFox. We can get out on Explorer 8, but not Firefox.
After the Explorer 8 load, we double click on Firefox but task manager never show it trying to load.

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] 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.

After upgrading to 9.0.1 Mozilla Firefox for my pc, Firefox will not load any web pages.

After upgrading to 9.0.1 Mozilla Firefox on my pc, Firefox will not load any web pages whatsoever, not even itself. My OS is Windows Vista 64. Thanks for any help. (Having to use Internet Explorer presently.)

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache/ Clear Cookies & Cache]
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* Update All your Firefox Plugins -> [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/]
** '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''
Check and tell if its working.

Firefox will not load to the web, even after 2nd download.

I have used firefox as a web browser because our school page works best with it. I have used firefox for over three months. This weekend firefox will not load. The screen message says unable to load web page, try again button is displayed, all to no avail.

I have XP Pro. I tried installing 3.6.15 and could not open it. I did a system restore and 3.6.14 would no longer open. I tried again installing 3.6.15 and got a message that the previous version had not uninstalled properly. Tried uninstalling.
As a precaution I used MozBackup to save my bookmarks etc. and also saved a system restore point.
I then clicked Start, My Computer, drive C, Program Files and deleted the Firefox folder.
I installed 3.6.15 and it is now working fine with all my bookmarks and addons loaded automatically.

Removed working Firefox 7, Installed Firefox 10.0, Firefox will not load. When I click on icon, firefox.exe process shows briefly in task manager, then goes away....no errors, nothing

Removed working Firefox 7, Installed Firefox 10.0, Firefox will not load. When I click on icon, firefox.exe process shows briefly in task manager, then goes away....no errors, nothing. Never see browser panel at all. Also tried to install Firefox 9.0, but the same result was observed.

Rather difficult to say what the problem may be at present but for general info please have a look at
* [[safe mode]]
*[[firefox will not start]]
*[[firefox hangs]]
Note sometimes you may have to wait a while for firefox to shutdown completly, and if it has hung then as explained in the above articles you may need to kill any firefox.exe process that is still running (and maybe plugincontainer.exe)
Try starting firefox in [[safe mode]] e.g. by holding down shift key
* do not make any changes in the first window, just click on continue ? Do you get as far as seeing the options window for safe mode ?
If firefox is crashing see [[firefox crashes]], this is easier to work through if you can get firefox to start without crashing on startup. Currently some firefox users are finding Firefox 10 crashes on startup, and a new version Firefox 10.0.1 is being released very soon to deal with this and another cause of hangs.
Not saying any of this applies to your case but recent issues include
* ask tool bar causing hangs if video is used none English versions [/forums/contributors/708073]
* possibly some crashes do not start the crash reporter and other issues [/forums/contributors/708122?page=2#post-45059]
* some general info about current crashes [/questions/917748#answer-308124]

Java console not accessible, will not load from FFx tools dropdown menu (had same prob with 3.6.15). Latest Java installed and IS accessible thru control panel

XP OS, have NoScript installed, disabled, Java console still will not load from FFx.

I followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?
Regards

After last Windows update, Firefox will not work

I am running Vista Business OS. and FF beta 4.x
After the latest updates (installed automatically) on Wed, April 27, Firefox will not load. When I click on the icon, I get the "busy" and then.......nothing. It does show as a running process, but nothing comes up on the screen. I have re-downloaded and re-installed it, but nothing. IE does come up, but Chrome does not.
It seems like MS blocked FF with the latest updates.
If I revert to the restore point before the updates were installed, FF works fine.
Help!

I uninstalled KB 2446708 (Security Update for .NET Framework 4) ... took forever to uninstall, like 20 minutes.... And now Firefox starts up normally!
By the way, my Firefox is version 3.6.17, running on Windows Vista 64bit. I try to avoid all the new updates like IE9. Perhaps I should try avoiding .NET Framework 4 as well.

After upgrading to 27, firefox will not start. Saw an error message during the upgrade process.

After upgrading to 27, firefox will not start. Saw an error message during the upgrade process but cannot remember.
Tried to run firefox.exe -P but receive error message:
XML Parsing error: undefined entity
Location: chrome://mozapps/content/profile/profileSelection.xul
Line number 18, Column 1:
<dialog
^
Running on Windows XP SP3. No problem whatsoever before upgrading to 27. Sending this from Chrome as I cannot open Firefox at all.

Thanks jschaer2000: after starting it once in safe mode, I closed Mozilla and tried several restarts in normal mode. So far, all worked:-)
Thank you very much again.
Still the automatic update process bothers me: it took me several days to discover the reason to the malfunction, since when I removed the problematic version from Add and Remove Programs, I didn't pay attention at first that it was another version, not v26 which I installed from my folder.
In addition, I like to save the installation files before I run new programs and if I didn't have v26 exe file, I couldn't have operated Mozilla at all. Not that it was fun to remove and install again each time v27 didn't react, but it was better than nothing, I still prefer Mozilla over its competition.

Firefox will not load no matter what I try (safe mode whatever). It only loads if I run it inside Comodo sandbox! How do I get it to run the normal way?

Firefox will not load the normal way (clicking on a link or running it from Run window or even running it in safe mode). It only runs if I dig down to the installed directory, right-click firefox.exe and select "Run inside Comodo Sandbox". I have Comodo Internet Security Suite installed but this does not happen with other programs. Do send in your suggestions. Re-install did not help.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
