BBC Radio iPlayerwill not work with latest version of Firefox.

I have updated all necessary software (Flashplayer, etc.) and am forced to use Internet Explorer to listen to BBC Radio. Earlier versions of Firefox do not have this problem. I am not a computer programer, just a user. I have used Firefox for years and been able to listened to BBC Radio for years. I've read all the advice on various Firefox fora and not found anything useful in solving this problem. It seems to be a problem intrinsic to the latest version of Firefox itself. Will this problem be fixed in the near future? It seems to have been going on for the better part of a year in both the US and UK. If not, why not?
My expertise is in chemistry, not computers. I need a browser that works. I'd like that browser to be Firefox, but I don't have any more time to spend on trying to fix this problem. Using two different browsers is not working for me. Please fix this.

Before I suggest you to revert back to Firefox 28.
Try this
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#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).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#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.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
WARNING: Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Why is Hotmail Calendar not working with latest version of Firefox

I was prompted to load the 'latest' version of Firefox this morning, which I duly did. Since then my Hotmail account has worked fine for send and receive but I cannot access my calendar. Screen simply says "loading...." and never actually loads.
I have shut my lap top down fully and rebooted but the situation remains the same.
I have 2 Hotmail accounts and this problem is the same for both. Please could you advise.

RTMP Netstream NOT working with latest version of flash Player

Let me preface this by saying: This is definitely a bug either with latest Adobe Flash Player or the streaming Media Server (in this case Real Helix):
In the latest version of the Flash player (10.1.82.76) Code that worked previously in version 10.1.53.64 does not work now. This is basic code to connect to an RTMP server (Real Helix) using Netstream class. NOW the video does not even display and there is no error message . THIS ONLY OCCURS in a BROWSER . Also I am using swfobject to display the flash and I tried with latest version and the old 1.4.1 version.
Adobe please look into this, Is this possibly a problem with Real Helix OR Flash Player itself......I can't imagine nobody has come across this before?!
private function init():void
 video = new Video();
 NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
 nc = new NetConnection();
 nc.client = this;
 nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
 nc.connect(rtmppath);
 //---BEGIN: Video Handling methods ----------------------------------------------
 private function onBWDone():void
 private function checkConnect (e:NetStatusEvent):void
 trace(flag_Running);
 if(flag_Running)
 return;
 var msg:Boolean=false;
 msg = (e.info.code=="NetConnection.Connect.Success");
 flag_Running=true;
 if (msg)
 ns = new NetStream(nc);
 ns.client = {onMetaData:ns_onMetaData, onCuePoint:ns_onCuePoint,onPlayStatus:ns_onPlayStatus,netStatus:onNetStatus};
 ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
 ns.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
 ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,onNetstreamStatus); //only handles errors right now
 //vidDisplay is a Video object in the library (Video - actionscript controlled)
 vidDisplay.attachNetStream(ns);
 // set the smoothing value from the constant
 vidDisplay.smoothing = SMOOTHING;
 setVolume(DEFAULT_VOLUME);
 bolLoaded = true;
 trace("NetConnection.Connect.Success");
 cur_state = STATE_CONNECTED;
 callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_VID_INIT_DONE,null);
 else
 trace("Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);
 callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_ERROR,null,"Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);

This is confirmed as a REAL HELIX Bug. Here is what I recevied from them:
This has already been fixed (not yet released). For existing servers to work with the
latest Flash player (10.1.82.76) you need to add the following to the top level of
your server config file
<List Name="RTMP">
 <List Name="Scheme2">
 <List Name="Versions">
 <Var v1="0x80000702"/>
 </List>
 </List>
</List>
I put this in the config file and restarted the server, and it worked!

The SiriusXM player does not work under latest version of Firefox. Is Mozilla aware of this?

When I installed the latest version of Firefox my SiriusXM player stopped working. SiriusXM Tech support says that their player will not work with the latest version of FireFox. Is Mozilla aware of this and will it be fixed in the future. I am also having the same problem with certain radio stations that stream their broadcasts.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

My web pplication does not working with new version of firefox 31. It uses heatmap.js plugin for leaflet.js to build temperature map.

There is site for heatmap.js: http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/heatmapjs/example-heatmap-leaflet.html
It has example for leaflet layer.
After update firefox to version 31 I could not see temperature map in browser for this example. But with previous version of firefox I could see it.
My web application users leaflet.js and heatmap.js plugin. It users the same code as on the example page.
After updating firefox version it saying "your script take too long time to run. Continue?" again and again and temperature map does not appear.
I use leaflet-0.7.2.js and heatmap-1.0.js plugin for leaflet.

Seems to be working here.
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

HP Simplepass not working with any version of Firefox

Long story short, after I upgraded to Firefox 6 and discovered my HP Simplepass doesn't work, I reverted back to Firefox 3.6 but can't get any version of HP Simplepass to work. I originally had the Digital Persona version, which I upgraded to the EgisTec version. I currently have version EgisTec 7.0.74.0 installed (supposed to work with FF 4.0 and no luck). I have tried older versions of HP Simplepass with no luck as well. I also tried to go back to my original Digital Persona version, but can't get it to reinstall (1722...error as discussed in other posts here). I can't seem to overcome that either. Any suggestions? I am pulling my hair out.

It is up to HP to make that program compatible with Firefox.
That application last worked in Firefox 3.5, but HP was always very lax in updating it for a new version of Firefox. Usually they didn't bother to update it until like halfway through the "run" of a particular Firefox version. It worked for like 6 months and then a new version of Firefox was released, and it didn't work for like 6 months until HP got around to fixing it - then the cycle repeated.

Flash no longer works with latest version of Firefox and Flash on my iMac?

I keep getting the "You need to install or upgrade Flash player..." many times when I try to watch a Flash video. Well, it is already installed.
Also, on those sites where it might work, first I get a greyed screen with a place for me to click. When I click, I sometimes see the video.

Can't get Dish Anywhere to work on latest version of Firefox

Dish Anywhere won't work with latest version of Firefox

If you have to ask what Dish Anywhere is, I doubt you would be able to help. We subscribe to Dish Network at home and they have a box to install on the cable box itself that allows you to get Dish Network on any device...cell phone...notebook/tablet...etc. It works on all devices except notebook which has Firefox as default browser. Now, mind you, on the same notebook, Dish Anywhere does work with Internet Explorer, but I HATE Internet Explorer....so...hence the question about why doesn't it work with Firefox? It's obviously a Firefox issue.

Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

Hello, I have iMac Itel i3, from Oct, 2010 and have OS 10.6.7 and multiple users.
About 3-4 days ago the Mail icon in dock had question mark and was accidently removed, along with program on my user. Oops.
1. Mail 4.4 is on other users and works fine, but for me it does not work and tells me V4.3 does not work with latest OS X.
2. I reloaded software from my user with original disks (Oct, 2010) and got Mail 4.3 again. Mail 4.3 did not work with latest OS. I am unable to load Mail. Gives Yellow error message.
" You have Mail version 4.3 (1081/1084). It can’t be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.7 (Build 10J869). For more information, click the Help button."
3. Tried to update software and look for update for mail 4.3 on Apple site to no success.
Hate to go to MS-Entorage ( I may need to learn something new and alien) mail program since contracts are in Mail/Address Book.
Ideas?

Matt,
I would download and run the 10.6.7 combo update.

My Lingualeo add-on works wrong with latest versions of Firefox

Hi! This add-on allows to translate English words into Russian and remember them to study later as shown in attached screenshot. After latest upgrades of Firefox it doesn't show list of possible translations, so I can't pick any translation and remember it. I have installed Firefox 34.0 and this fixed my problem. Can I do something to make lingualeo work properly with latest version of Firefox?

Sorry if my formulation was incorrect. I'm not a developer of this add-on, I'm just its user and it helped me to study English :) Can I do anything as a user (except downgrading Firefox)?

Youtube and BBC iPlayer are not working with Flash

Hi there Guys,
When I started this search I had a full head of hair :( I have read hundreds and houndreds of webpages talking about Flash and FireFox and at this point I just can't get them to work together.
I am very reluctant to change my browser as to be honest with you I love Firefox but at this point I am in desperation. I have read webpages which they remove this plug-in and that plug-in, change databases, remove this file and delete that file, called this old and remove that. And still nothing happens it just does not work.
The version of Firefox I am running 35.0.1
the version of Flash I am writing is 16.0.0.305
but every time I try to visit YouTube and/or the BBC's website nothing works HELP!!!!
I would really just do not know what to do.
Thank you for reading and I hope somebody can help.
John
