Can see thumbnails of open tabs but cannot open them at all

Firefox upgraded itself on the weekend.
I have been visiting blogs through the Bloggers' Quilt Festival, which I'm participating in. I tried to leave comments but on the blogspot and blogger blogs was not able to. This morning I saw a bunch of extra thumbnail windows open in Firefox so I closed them, but now the whole of Firefox has shut on me. I can see two or three thumbnails and have a screenshot but I can't actually get them to open.
I saw the advice about starting Firefox in safe mode but that doesn't work from the thumbnails.
Really need help asap because I work from home and work depends on easy fast access that I depend on Firefox for

an alternative way to get into safemode (all other firefox windows have to be closed first): press windows-key + R and open:
firefox.exe -safe-mode

  • I can see the music toolbar moving, but cannot hear any music.

    I can see the music toolbar moving, but cannot hear any music. My phone rings and clicks, so I know some sound works.  Ever since I synced my
    phone on my computer, I cannot hear my music or any videos.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

  • Can receive, send new and forward but cannot reply or reply all in mail all

    I'm using Tiger 10.4.11 and am suddenly experiencing a problem with Mail. I can receive emails and send new but cannot reply or reply all. When I click either the reply or reply all button, nothing happens, not even the spinning ball of death. Have tried the dropdown menu and the keyboard shortcut but same issue.
    Anyone else experienced the same problem or know how to fix this please?

    Ms. Gibbs, welcome to the discussion groups!
    Mail accesses Address Book to make sense of addresses, etc., whether or not you have anything in Address Book. When you start Address Book, are there any problems?
    Another thing to try after that, is kind of a "standard Mail fix to try": rebuild the Envelope Index.
    To do this, quit Mail. Then in Finder, find ~/Library/Mail/Envelope Index and move it to Trash. (~ is your Home Directory.) Then start up Mail. It will say something about importing mail... it is just rebuilding the Envelope Index file.

  • I have set up my Yahoo! account to be used as default mail account on iMac. I am receiving messages, but cannot send them.  All settings appear to be right.  What can I do?

    I have set up my Yahoo! account to be used as default mail account on iMac. I am receiving messages, but cannot send them.  All settings appear to be right.  What can I do?

    The problems I am having are when I use Yahoo! with the iMac mail application.  Yahoo works fine on the browser. 
    The outgoing settings I am using are:
    Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): yahoo.co.uk (Offline)
    Description: yahoo.co.uk
    Server name: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Use default ports (25, 465, 587)
    Use SSL
    Authentication: Password
    User Name:  ********@yahoo.co.uk
    Password: *************
    Of note:
    I cannot stop it from saying Offline after the outgoing mail server.
    I have used the same settings on my ipad and iphone and that works fine.
    Really grateful if you can help.
    Thanks

    Please help! I updated safari and yes it is an older desktop, but now all of the sudden tabs I have open will freeze on me. I can see what is going on, but am unable to type anywhere on the page! I have to shut down safari and then open up a whole new window to even attempt to get it to stop! It is driving me insane not to mention I need my desktop to work properly. I beg for someone to help me with this.

  • My GoDaddy email lost all clickable links - I can see my emails and tabs but there are no links. Explorer works fine...

    The Workspace inbox stopped working. When I refresh or reboot, I can see all my new emails coming in, but cannot open any of them, or any other folder/link for that matter. My GoDaddy account still works on the Mozilla server on my Macintosh desktop, so there must be a setting/plugin on my laptop that has stopped working. GoDaddy works fine when I open IE.

    Just bought Ipad2. Loaded Skype, I can see and hear the other person, but They and I cannot see me...just my audio. Does anyone know where or how to find sype video setting on Ipad app?

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • Just updated to the latest Firefox and now my MSN email will not function. I can see the titles as normal but cannot open individual emails

    Just updated Firefox. Now I cannot open msn emails. Email titles appear as normal but will not open.

    Hello ebarrow
    If there is an issue with update or permissions the better, quickest and safest way is to download and install firefox:
    1. Download with your safari a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    2. '''''Trash''''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
    3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
    Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

  • We can see thumbnails of horizontal photos but can't see full size photos after data transfer to new mac

    hello,
    We just updated to a new mac from a 7 year old Mac because the logic board died. =The Apple reseller did a data transfer and now we cannot see full size photos on our new screen. We see the thumb nails but when we try to open a photo in the photo section of the library we get a black screen with an exclaimation mark. How do we fix this?
    thanks!

    When you first boot your new Mac, it will boot into Setup Assistant. It will walk you through registration and then ask you if you want to migrate. Choose the disk you want to migrate from and choose all settings. No newer apps will be overwritten with older ones. No third party software will be lost. Although you should check compatiblity of apps with ML.

  • Can see Time Capsule in Finder but cannot view contents of it?

    Hi guys,
    I've been having this issue on and off.  Most of the time my Time Capsule works perfectly but sometimes I cannot access the conents saved on it.  I am able to see the TC under 'shared' in Finder but when I try to access the stuff I have saved on it and nothing shows up. The only way I can find to restore visability, is to restart my macbook.  Any one have this same issue?
    Thanks!

  • Home Sharing - Can See Computer on Apple TV but Cannot Browse

    I have a Macbook Air (2011) and Apple TV (2nd generation) and I have successfully set up home sharing. I have the ability to select the Apple TV from iTunes on my Macbook Air and use it to play music/movies. However, when trying to browse the computer from the Apple TV, it attempts to connect and then fails with a generic error message about not being able to reach the compuer. However, I have the computer on, iTunes open, and am listening to music. I even tried it without music to no avail.

    I think I've isolated the problem. The shared videos that are missing from the ipad mini "Videos" app are 1080p. I thought the ipad mini could play 1080p, or at least downcode to somthing it could display.
    Maybe it can't.

  • I can see songs on my iphone but can not see them in itunes

    I have the IOS 7 and iphone is a 4.  I can see songs on my iphone but cannot see them on itunes.  I want to be able to see them so that I can move them to a playlist. 
    thanks for any help.

    If i have to restore my phone, I would loose data. At the momen, that's a last resort to me as everything works fine apart from this music problem.
    Is there a way to fix the database? I can see the music is on my phone with iTunes so it is there in one form or another ...but I can't play it
    Has anyone had the same issue?
    Are there any suggestions?
    If i call Apple support would they be able to help?
