After installing 9.0.1 twice on Win7, Firefox does not open websites in the navigation toolbar. Nothing happens when I put in any normal web address.

Firefox now takes an enormously long time to open now that I have upgraded to 9.0.1. The bigger problem is that the navigation toolbar where I enter web addresses does not function when I hit the enter key or by selecting the small arrow key right next to the web address. Win7 64bit, no detectable viruses.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] 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.

After Photoshop Elements quit working for the second time in three months, I uninstalled it and now cannot get it to reinstall from the disc. Nothing happens when I insert the disc. All I can do is look at the folders and files and see nothing that tells me how to start the installation. Clicking "open with Auto play" gives me irrelevant options, view photos, share, etc. I'm running Windows 8. This program has worked, although buggy, for the past year.

reinstall by clicking setup on your disk or downloading and installing,

After upgrading to 3.6.4 (english) firefox does not open

After upgrading to 3.6.4 (english) firefox does not open when I hit its button. I uninstalled it and reintalled it but the problem remains - My operating sys is VISTA 2 service pack. IE works
Any suggestions?
== Operating system ==
VISTA 2 service pack

I have been using Firefox on a regular basis for many years.
I have two problems with Firefox 3.6.4.
First, it keeps crashing....
I have 4gb of memory on a Windows 7 - HP Laptop and whenever Firefox tries to allocate more than 1.5gb of memory it crashes. What is more interesting is the fact that while Firefox is running on a static page; such, as the google search page...the memory allocation keeps climbing... Even when nothing else is running.....Does anyone see a problem with this. I have tried all the suggestions that I could search for and I have come to one conclusion....the problem is software related and software problems should be fixed with software not by people manually going into an application and toggling something on or off. In other words the mozilla team should be looking at trying to resolve this issue.
So, what programmer did you guys have write the 3.6.4 memory handler - a person who doesn't understand how to allocate and deallocate memory?
Just so you know what I have been describing above about Firefox 3.6.4 is a memory leak, and memory leaks are usually a first sign of poorly written code.
==
My Second Issue is in regards to the newest Firefox Update, which prevents me from going to the internet whenever it's installed because it has a flaw with its Network Proxy module. I have to re-install the original Firefox v3.6.4 to fix this problem.
Solution:
I'm going back to Internet Explorer because the mozilla team can't fix all these issues. I don't have the time to come up with a work around solutions for an inferior piece of software that is supposed to just allow me to browse the internet at anytime....

Mine is hitching on "restoring the window layout" and not moving beyond that. This is bad. Very bad.
Usually that can be fixed by deleting the Layouts folder.
Option-click on the Go menu in the Finder to access the Library folder inside your home folder. Navigate to Application Support/Final Cut Pro, and delete the Layouts folder.
Also, trash your preferences, just in case.

I installed an update of firefox this morning and now it won't open. I have tried to remove it and re-install it and although the icon remains, nothing happens when I click on it.

I was prompted to install an update this morning which I did. After that, Firefox will not open at all. I click the icon and nothing happens. I tried uninstalling it and then re-installing it with no results.

Hello Floyd.
Hopefully this support article is what you need:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
In any case, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

Firefox does not open after first try

When i click on firefox, it does not open. After Several times trying, it might open. Sometimes I have to click open new tabs to open this. Why is this happening?

Hi,
You can try to right-click and Unpin the icon from the taskbar and then Pin it back from the Firefox [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory installation directory], usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\.
Another possible reason could be that the installed security software is delaying the start (McAfee??). You can try to fully trust Firefox and its related processes/files in the different McAfee configuration areas (e.g. process/sub process control, file modification, HIPS etc.). You can also try to disconnect the internet connection, temporarily disable McAfee, restart the computer and check.

Firefox does not open to "maximized" after updating add-ons and performing the restart

After checking for any updates to installed add-ons and, if there should be an update(s) available, and ... after performing the download of the update(s) with a "RESTART FIREFOX" is needed ... Firefox does not restart/reopen to MAXIMIZED. I have to manually maximize Firefox.

This problem ... I suspect ... is only when I am using Windows XP Home w/SP3. This problem does not occur when I use Firefox on Ubuntu (Linux). So now, I don't know if there is a problem with Firefox using Windows XP or that the problem is with Windows XP using Firefox. In any case, I will not just do the extra clicking to maximize Firefox after updating the addons and such. Thanks anyway.

Firefox does not show up in the start up menu after dowloading

Every time I download Firefox I look in the start up menu and I can't find any file of Firefox. I have to download it every time I want to use the internet.

I'm not sure why you don't have a "Mozilla Firefox" desktop shortcut after you download and install Firefox. You said that Firefox does not appear in the "startup" menu. You should be looking in the Start '''All Programs''' list for a Mozilla Firefox icon (you may need to scroll up or down). If you don't see it, open the C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox folder and then right-click on firefox.exe and choose either "Pin to Start Menu" or "Send to -> Desktop (create shortcut) if you want a Desktop shortcut and it's missing.

Firefox does not open after I downloaded Microsoft antivirus, why? How to fix it?

Firefox worked fine on my desktop for years but when I downloaded Microsoft antivirus two days ago, Firefox does not work. It will not open anymore.

Thanks LN.
Now that I got an expert's attention, there are two problems that bug me all the time and have not able to get an explanation/solution:
1. After restart, the trackpad lost it's ability to tab and click. I always have to use the mouse to tap the user (myself) to get the tiny signin password window. After that, all trackpad functions work fine. This happens for me through Marverik and now Yosemite.
2. This one only happens recently after Yosemite upgrade. Everytime after restart, I have to reset my Verizon Router manually in order to establish network connection to access internet sites.
Thank you for your help,
...Jeff

Please help resolve...

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
#Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
'''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
* '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
#Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
#In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
#Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
#* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
#* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
#Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
#Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
#Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

After installing 3.6.10 firefox does not open selected web pages just gives garbage web pages at random. Had to use explorer just to get here

after updating to 3.6.10 firefox loads wrong web pages. Had to use explorer to get help. All web pages won't load just bookmarked pages.

Can you clarify something. Is it just bookmarks that you are having problems with, or do you get this problem when clicking on links or typing an address in the location bar.
If it is just bookmarks, a possible cause is a damaged places.sqlite file (the file that stores bookmarks), for details on how to fix that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite
If it is clicking on links, being re-directed on search engines etc, then this can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:

Brand new macbookpro; recent install Yosemite; computer now opens to my name and image but no place to put the password but nothing happens when trying to click on restart etc.

Macbook Pro purchased December 2014.....was fine until update iOS to Yosemite 2 days ago. Now, when turned on my image with my name comes up on the screen...no place to put your password.....at the bottom...restart, but used cursor to click on the restart and also my name, the image etc....nothing happens.
I shutdown to go into the Recovery OS....and got the screen about resetting the password....which doesn't need reset. The third choice seemed more appropriate regarding the keyboard...but could not click on any of them with the cursor.
Spent an hour with Apple support who ended up referring me to an Apple store that's a 100 mile round trip from me. Can't believe they can't help me...and can't believe this is happening to a brand new Mac.....guess Apple is no different than any other computer...install an update or upgrade...and immediately have problems.
Exasperated,
Joe......good thing my Dell is working

Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
In Terminal, type:
resetpassword
...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
Good luck,
Clinton

After Yosemite Firefox does not open a window

After Installation of Yosemite I can't use Firefox anymore. It doesn't open any window, also on the menu bar only the "Firefox" menu appears. Already tried to remove and re-install, no change. Any ideas?

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

After the Firefox 6.0.2 update (up from 6.0), Firefox does not open a tab/page anymore when clicking on links in e-mail(have Thunderbird 6.0.2)

Firefox no longer receives clicks on links in e-mail and others. No response at all. When I click on URL links in Windows, I receive "Windows cannot find http://<an address>. Make sure you typed the name correctly ...". When I click on e-mail links in Thunderbird, I do not get an error but nothing happens.

This problem disappeared after a few days by itself but the last significant change in my PC prior to noticing normal Firefox link behaviour was MS Vista update KB2607712 & restart. This may or may not be the solution to the problem.

After installing 9.0.1 twice on Win7, Firefox does not open websites in the navigation toolbar. Nothing happens when I put in any normal web address.
