After upgrading to Firefox 18 I can't open Google, Gmail, Google Reader or any other Google website. Other sites work fine.

Sometimes I can't even start Firefox. I've cleared everything, cookies, cache, restarted computer, did a security scan, uninstalled/reinstalled Firefox (deleted all data, bookmarks and everything) and it still won't load.

I have this problem with MOZILLA FIREFOX VER 18.
Older versions were good. When you reinstall it works. However, after sometime it stops.
No issues with Internet explorer.
Please stop pointing to Virus Issues for every failure that Firefox has. My system is clean.

  • After upgrading to 20.0.1 cannot open a new window (CTRL+N) and no add-ons seem to work (apart from adblock plus).

    Unable to open new window (but able to open new tabs).
    Sometimes unable to open Add-ons tab.
    The add-on extensions do not seem to be working, even though they seem to be ENABLED (except adblock plus).
    When restarting in safe mode, or disabling ALL add-ons the browser works normally, thus new windows open, add-on tab opens etc.
    Tried to enable one thing at a time, but it seems that when enabling WHICHEVER TWO add-ons, firefox starts acting "weirdly" (no new windows etc.).
    Tried disabling hardware acceleration, but it didn't solve the problem.
    Tried uninstalling firefox and then reinstalling. At first it all seemed working perfectly well: new windows opened, extensions working etc. But after a couple of restarts (of firefox and computer) it all got back to the same situation.
    Tried uninstalling ALL add-ons and everything worked well. After installing the SECOND add-on and restarting firefox things get "wrong" again.
    It all started after upgrading to Firefox 20.0.1.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • We have an openerp server with webclient, after upgrade of firefox some icons are not oppening submenus as it used to be, while they are still working on internet explorer 8

    We have an ERP application(openerp), where the web client was working very fine.
    After one of the upgrades of firefox, some of the icons on the web page that should open a sub-page for selection of items in the main page are not working any more. We click on them, yet no response
    I donwloaded the fidler and it record any request sent from the PC when clicking those icons.
    I tired internet explorer 8 and the icons are working, so it is not a server side problem

  • After upgrading to ios7 I can't open email attachments when I turn on voice over in accessibility. How can I solve this problem??

    With the new ios7 upgrade I have noticed that some accessibility features are not as strong. In emails I am now unable to open attachments as although I can see them at the bottom of the email when I touch on them voice over reads the paragraph above and does not allow me to open the attachment. Is this a glitch still to be sorted or can someone help me solve it??

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Hi, after updated my firefox, i can't open the download icon

    Today firefox automatically updated the browser. Then i'm downloading something after done the download icon color should change to blue, but it's not. Still grey.

    What happened?

  • After upgrading to CC, I can't open a file in photoshop from LR5 interface.

    Pre CC I could 'edit in' from LR5, but now, when I attempt to 'Edit in -> Photoshop CC' nothing comes across to Photoshop CC.
    Any ideas?

    Hi, I need -
    OS 9's Finder uses File Type and Creator codes embedded in files to determine how the file should be handled - what program to use to open it, and how that program should process the file.
    OSX uses filename extensions rather than File Type and Creator codes.
    As a result, it is not uncommon for a file created in an OSX environment to be displayed as a generic unknown-type document when the machine is booted to OS 9; and for Finder to not know how to handle it when it is double-clicked.
    If you know that a certain program in OS 9 should be able to open a file, try dropping that file onto the icon for that program (or on an alias to that program) - some programs are capable of trying to open a file done that way; others won't even try.
    In most cases, a file created by an OSX app will not be openable by an OS 9 app - this is understandable, given that newer programs often use more advanced formats than older ones, even versions of the same program.
    If you know that you will be transporting a file from OSX to OS 9, try saving it in a form accessible by OS 9 - many programs will offer a list of alternate file formats when you do a Save As of the file, or (in some cases) an Export of it.
    Question: does the Internet connection (Internet Explorer vs. Safari play any role ?)
    It certainly can. If Safari saves a file in a proprietary format, then IE will probably not be able to open it. However, a file saved in plain html should be openable by most any browser.
    You might experiment with the settings in OS 9's File Exchange control panel, particularly the ones listed under PC Exchange. Adjusting some of these, or creating new linkages, may allow OS 9 to handle files which are openable by your OS 9 programs, but which are not identifiable by Finder.

  • I have Firefox pinned to the Task bar in Windows 7. After upgrading to Firefox 9 when I open firefox I get an extra firefox icon in my task bar while having firefox open. It used to show as being open on the icon that is pinned to the task bar.

    * Installed Firefox 9
    * I am running Windows 7 64-bit
    * I have Firefox pinned to the task bar.
    * When Firefox opens, there is a new icon that opens up on the task bar. Normally, Firefox would open within the icon that is pinned to the task bar.
    * When I close Firefox, the extra icon goes away.
    * Firefox is acting like the icon that is pinned to the task bar is not even there.

    Before attempting the steps below, I would highly suggest you visit the latest known issues for the current version, specifically FF 9 release notes.
    See:
    [[Latest Firefox issues]]
    1. Unpin the old firefox icon
    2. Go to c:\Program File (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
    3. Double click on "firefox.exe" (FF window & icon will appear in supertaskbar)
    4. Pin this new icon by right clicking > Pin to Taskbar (Firefox Icon turns into whitebox)
    5. Make sure that you see the hidden folders
    [[windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Show-hidden-files]]
    6. Go to C:\Users\%yourusername%\AppData\Local
    7. Delete "IconCache.db"
    8. Open the taskmanager
    9. Kill explorer.exe by clicking on End Process
    10. In the taskmanager, File -> New Task (Run...) --> write "explorer.exe" without the quotation mark, press ok

  • Can't open camera RAW image in CS4/Bridge with Win 8.1.  Worked fine with XP

    I upgraded from Win XP to 8.1 and got a new computer in the process.  I'm using CS4, and I think that works okay, except it does not recognize a RAW file.  Bridge won't open thumbnails for RAW files, and if I try to open one it doesn't open it in Bridge; it goes straight to CS4 and that says it's 'not the right kind of document'. It doesn't matter if the file is on the hard drive or on a Canon card in a reader. Bridge will display thumbnails for JPG files and open them in CS4.  It will not show the thumbnails for TIF files, but it will open them in CS4. How do I fix this?

    I did all that, in the order you recommended.  I downloaded, expanded and installed all three updates. I then checked the start page for CS4 and it is at 11.0.2. I also rebooted, but Bridge still won't display thumbnails of RAW files, will not open a RAW file in Bridge but sends it to CS4 which still says it is not the right kind of document.  If I try to open a RAW file in CS4 directly, I do get thumbnails, but it won't open the file.  On a more positive note, I called a friend who also has CS4 and who also recently bought a new computer.  However, his is a laptop with Win 8 Professional. He had not tried to use Photoshop since he got the new laptop, and he discovered that he had the very same problem. However, downloading the updates fixed him right up. My new machine is a desktop with Win 8.1.  What do I do now?

  • Lost Ability to Scroll After Upgrading to Firefox 6.0.2

    I've lost the ability to scroll using my mouse (touchpad on a Lenovo T400) after upgrading to Firefox 6.0.2. I still have the ability to scroll in every other application (IE, Word, etc.) and previously had the ability to scroll in the prior version of Firefox. I'm operating Windows XP and have already checked to make sure my mouse settings are correct. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Flash does not appear in the plugins list. It works fine in other browsers. /Library/Internet plug-ins/Flash Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt exist. I can't find the flash plugin elsewhere (profile/plugins, in the App package)
    I created a new profile to test if the profile was at fault. The plugin still did not load. Firefox finds the plugin but in [profile]/pluginreg.dat it adds it under [INVALID]:
    [INVALID]

  • After upgrading to firefox 7, I can't use many of the features on my schools secure website. So, how do I install a previous version of firefox?

    After upgrading to firefox 8, I can't use many of the functions on my schools website like opening the textbook and sending emails. I spoke the school's tech. support & they informed me that my version of firefox was not compatible with their system. So, how do I install a previous version of firefox (firefox 6 to be exact)?

    You can download Firefox 6.0.2 for Mac OS X 10.5 from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/6.0.2/
    Backup your '''Profiles''' folder before new installation.
    edit: replaced random third-party download site link.

  • What can I do about this: After upgrading to firefox 6, I get this error. TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined???

    What can I do about this:
    After upgrading to firefox 6, I get this error.
    When I click to open Firefox, A box open with the following error:
    JAVASCRIPT Application
    TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined?
    After I click close on the box, then Firefox will start. I really just want to get the error fixed so that when I want firefox open, I don't have to see this box anymore.

    You need to figure out which add-on is causing that error and disable it until the developer of that add-on fixes it. There may be an error message about that in the Error Console, accessed through the Web Developer menu item or through {Ctrl + Shft + J}.

  • Can't get past home page of instructables after upgrading to firefox 13

    I can load the home page, but if i click on anything past it, it acts like it continually loads, nothing comes up on the page, it sticks at "Transferring data from www.instructables.com..." or "Read www.instructables.com" it seems to only have happened after upgrading to firefox 13. I have an old version of firefox aurora that came with the tor browser suite and tried instructables on there. worked perfect, and i was going to instructables on a regular basis before the update, so it's gotta be from the update right? what can i do to fix it?
    P.S. It's not just the specific URL under "URL of affected site" because none of the pages will load after the home page.

    did that solve the issue? i still believe it has more likely to do something with faulty cache (maybe the restart of the browser really triggered it );
    if it was an issue with dns prefetching it would be rather strage since you already were on the domain instructables.com & wouldn't have had to resolve the domain for the subsites again. and since the server, your isp or your local hardware might not support ipv6 fully yet, it can always cause some glitches too...

  • After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I cannot open my File Maker Pro files. Can I use Numbers to open these files?

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I cannot open my File Maker Pro files. Can I use Numbers to open these files?

    Numbers is a spreadsheet program and FileMaker is a database program, so you probably can't use Numbers to open them unless you had first exported them from FileMaker in a spreadsheet-compatible format.
    If you upgraded from 10.6 Snow Leopard or earlier and your old copy of FileMaker won't open anymore, it might be a PowerPC application that is not compatible with 10.7 and later. If that is the case, to work with your FileMaker files you should upgrade your copy of FileMaker to the latest version, which seems to be FileMaker 12.
