Can I fix a corrupt profile?

When I try and start firefox it shows the computer is thinking but then nothing happens. I tried restarting, safe mode, reinstalling. After reading up I found its probably a corrupt file, so I logged onto my computer's guest profile and it worked on there. Is there anyway to get it to work on my original profile? It would be really inconvienient to have to start a new profile for this

IF you want to solve the problems on your original profile, perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles on (don't forget to start Firefox using your Original Profile):
Clear Cookies & Cache
Clear the Network Cache
Use the "Remember History" setting as described in this article -> Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track
Start Firefox in -> Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode to check if your add-ons/extension are causing the problem.
Also see this article -> Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
Check and tell if its working.

    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.

  • I can't fix a corrupted itunes by reinstalling

    When I tried to open iTunes I get a message saying that "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes."  I went to apple.com and downloaded the latest version. When I try to install on my system, I get the message "iTunes can't be installed on this disk. A newer version of iTunes is already installed."
    I tried to delete the version on my system and I get the message “iTunes” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by Mac OS X."
    Anyone have ideas?
    Thanks
    Josh

    Whenever I say I "Rebooted" I always did a shut down/start up. Not a restart.
    What you said works as a temporary fix, but I don't want to keep doing it because:
    1) The drive makes a noise when the computer is shut down indicating the drive was disconnected improperly.
    2) I don't want to shut my computer off after every use, nor do I only want to back up my computer once every few days.

    Hi obarriel,
    that could be a tricky job as LV2013 claims "block diagram can't be opened"!
    Meanwhile you should learn two things:
    - using LLBs isn't recommend practice nowadays (atleast not for storing daily work VIs)
    - make a backup of your works on a regular basis (using SVN/GIT is recommended too…)
    Best regards,

  • How can I fix a corrupted iPhone 4 video file?

    I have a video that i recorded back in October with my iPhone 4, but for some reason now it won't play. It says "The movie could not be opened. The file is not a movie file. I have tried a bunch of different corrupted video repair software programs....i got one to convert a little bit of it (you have to pay over $100 to get the full converted video.) While the video is a nice short little video, it isn't worth $100 to have it ...however, is there another way to fix these? i know it helps to have a video that is a reference video shot around the same time, which i do. if anyone has any suggestions, i would greatly appreciate it.

    The name of the software i used to fix it (the demo only does around 9 seconds worth) is called Video Repair Tool v.1.6. Has anyone found any software similar to this that is cheaper? i believe from what i have read the "moov" file is either corrupted or missing....

  • How can I fix my corrupted hard drive?

    My hard drive is corrupted.  When I boot up my computer, it appears with a question mark inside a folder.
    Then, I pressed "option" while rebooting to get to the Disk Utility.  I verified the disk, and it said it needed repair and hit the repair button; however, the repair button is greyed out.
    I attempted to reinstall my operating system.  It was locked and asking for a Macintosh HD password.  I unlocked the locked drive, and tried again to reinstall my operating system, which shows up as Mountain Lion, which I did have in the past.  Since then, I had upgraded to Yosemite.  I get a message saying that I can't reinstall my operating system since I have had a newer version.
    Any ideas on what I can do?
    Would it work if I erased my operating system, then tried to install it again?  I obviously want wiping the computer to be my last resort.

    Install a new HDD,.
    Ciao.

  • How can I fix a corrupt catalog in photoshop elements 8?

    I am getting a catalog corrupt error in photoshop elements 8. Is it really corrupt or is my version too old now or something? I have years worth of photos in this catalog. The photos are on my hard drive, but is there any way to repair or reconstruct the catalog? Are the tags and albums saved somewhere?

    Hi,
    The details about the tags and albums are all stored within the catalog so you could try to repair it.
    If you can't load the organizer, try holding down the shift key while you start the organizer and it should open the Catalog Manager and jump to step 3 below.
    Load the organizer
    From the File menu, select Catalog - that should open the Catalog Manager.
    Select you current catalog and click on the Repair button
    When that has finished, click on the Optimize button
    When that is done, click on the Cancel button to close the Catalog Manager.
    Good luck

  • How can I fix a corrupt ssd mbr or gpt

    I have a Runcore 64gb mini pci-e SSD with a USB cable. It is not new but used little. I wanted to make it bootable as a usb device but may have hosed it. What I did: (sorry, this is long)
    Set up a single guid partition, and sucsessfully made a 63gb partition.
    Then I used "erase free space" on the partition.
    Here's where I screwed up. I decided to start over and "secure erased" the drive, not the partition I created, but the whole drive. That was a bone head mistake.
    Well, after that, I could not change the partition and the root drive shows it's 2tb. disk repair says it's good. Funny thing is, I could still see the partition but not repartition.
    I even used Carbon Copy Cloner to put 10.6.7 on the partition. It worked, I could boot to it. But it still won't let me change anything. I kept trying different erase options and continued to say it could't complete the task--until the last time I tried it. Now I can't see the partition. I still see the drive in disk util but can't do anything with it. It shows the same way on a Windows7 machine (2.2 tb).
    After a lot of googling, It seems I have a corrupted MBR but the GPT part that Mac uses was ok...or used to be. Sometimes the drive shows "0" capacity, sometime 2.2tb. Last night I had dreams about MBR's GRUBs and GPTs.  Today, in terminal, I typed "diskutil list" and got: identifier disk2, size 30.5gb (which is the size of the CCC drive I cloned), and the partition name that I originally made which was 63gb.
    All I want to do is clean it off and start over. I don't care about the data. Any Advice? I would like to try something before tossing it. I'm totally willing to try anything since there is no critical data on it.
    If you read all of this, thank you!

    Can anyone at least point me in the right direction? perhaps I posted in the wrong area.

  • Can you fix my "corrupted" ipod? :-(

    Okay,
    PUt my ipod into my coputer thismorning and it says, "your ipod appears to be corrupt" Restore and download newest version of itunes to fix this... which I downloaded.
    So it cleared my ipod(without me telling it to), however, pluging it back in, it still says "corrupt".
    Finally it said, to continue the restore process, connect to external power supply. Which I have now done.
    How is that supposed to help?
    I turned it on, it flashes the apple icon, and then simply says www.apple.com/support/ipod before turning off again.
    Do i have to leave it charge fully?
    will this complete the Restore process?
    How would it have become corrupt? It has never been connected to another computer, only recently to an amplifier via an appropriate ipod cord.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • How can i fix a corrupted garageband file????

    I have here a file that i was working on. I a cd track, and i imported it into the garageband file. After my computer crashed as i was exporting the completed track into itunes, i restarted my computer and when i went to open the garageband file, it said the file was no longer supported. so i opened the file in anycase and was no longer able to use the cd track i had imported. It said that it found 67 audio tracks in 8 bit format. This format os unsupportedd and cannot be played back....can someone help me find some kind of resolution to this issue??

    You'll probably have more luck getting help with this if you post in the GarageBand forum:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/garageband
    Posting here is unnecessarily limiting you to those who would happen to be running GarageBand on a mini.

  • How can I fix a corrupted .f4v file?

    An f4v file I downloaded is set to play for 30 minutes but I can only get through the first 8. I have tried converting it to other formats to no avail. The file size is much larger than would be accounted for by just the 8 minutes that are playing.

    It does sound like you have an error at the 8 min mark.  Since you say the size is larger than 8 min. would suggest you can see if it has errors.
    When you put it on the editor do you see the slider at 1/3 of the way to the right when it is at 8 min.?  If it is all the way to the right it would indicate that is they whole length of the file.
    If it just quits a 8 min. you might try cutting a little bit of the file at this point and try playing it in the editor.  Keep advancing your cut until you get it to play.
    If this does not work then try posting in the flash player froum http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer
    Hope this helps.  Good luck.

  • How do I fix a corrupt domain?

    Hi there,
    Came across this last night and, whilst not the end of the world, it's inconvenient.
    I just bought a 13" MBP running SL, and am wanting to use it to update my iWeb blog instead of the iMac G5 (leopard). I copied the "domain" file from the iMac to a USB and transferred it to the corresponding folder on the MBP. Opened iWeb - hey presto, the files were all there and looking exactly as I expected.
    I created a new entry, attempted to publish, and got the dreaded "Publish error: An unknown error occurred" pop-up.
    Searched the interwebz for a solution, and found one to determine if the problem was with the transferred domain file - moved the domain file on the MBP to a new folder, deleted the User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iweb.plist file, restarted, opened iWeb, created a new site and published to a local folder etc etc). A-OK, therefore problem seems to be with the transferred domain file being corrupt
    My question is - How can I fix this corrupted domain file so I can use the MBP for iWeb'ing?

    Chris Wever wrote:
    I tried to post a new entry on my blog (on the original Mac) and still got the publishing error. Shall I admit defeat yet?
    Chris ~ Not yet. Since problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums, it might be useful to see whether removing the Blog page on your MBP enables you to successfully publish the rest of your site...
    First make a backup of your Domain file:
    _Backing up your Domain file_
    ...then open iWeb and delete the Blog page. Then republish your website by choosing +Publish Entire Site+ from the File menu.
    NOTE: If it successfully publishes, you will have determined that the problem is indeed in the Blog page. But having removed that page from your site, you may not be able to restore ANY of your blog by restoring from your backup and republishing — because you'll probably get the error again on both Macs.
    By the way, for a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
    _To blog or not to blog_

  • How do I fix a corrupt user profile

    Hi,
       I have a user profile that is corrupt. In CA, under People, Manage User Profiles, I can't find the broken user profile but when I try to create profile again with New Profile. It won't let me. As it says the Profile exists already. How do I
    fix this broken profile in SharePoint 2013? Thanks.
    SPYliu

    I've had to use code like the above to delete user profiles before - however - I would strongly suggest excluding the loop from the above code - otherwise you'll be deleting ALL user profiles - which doesn't seem to be what you want to do
    - e.g:
    /* Load required Assemblies for SharePoint Server and User Profile */
    [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName(“Microsoft.Office.Server”)
    [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName(“Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles”)
    /* Central Adminstration URL or any Web Application*/
    $url = "http://myserver:Port"
    /* Create a new Context Object */
    $contextWeb = New-Object
    Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("http://servername");
    /* Get the right Service Context */
    $ServerContext = [Microsoft.Office.Server.ServerContext]::GetContext($contextWeb);
    /* create a new connection to the UserProfileManager */
    $UserProfileManager = New-Object
    Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($ServerContext);
    /* Remove Profile */ $UserProfileManager.RemoveUserProfile("CONTOSO\joesmith");

  • How can i fix corrupted logins.json file ?

    Hello. My computer had crashed. So i installed another windows on crashed C drive
    Later i copied my entire profile folder to another drive and reinstalled windows clean
    Now i copied back my entire firefox folder
    Everything works however firefox can't see any passwords. It creates are file logins.json.corrupt
    When i check file with notepad++ i can see saved password sites etc.
    So maybe only small part of it is corrupted however i don't know how to fix
    How can i fix it ? It is extremely important for me
    At least save the working part of the file

    Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder and no longer use the signons.sqlite file. You can force Firefox to reimport the passwords from the signons.sqlite file.
    • reset the '''signon.importedFromSqlite''' pref on the '''about:config''' page to the default value via the right-click context menu
    • delete the '''logins.json''' file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed
    When you restart Firefox then you should have the '''signon.importedFromSqlite''' pref with the value set to true and you should have the passwords imported in the Password Manager unless there may have been errors.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
