Can't open links in FORUM ?????

Is anyone else having trbl opening links on this forum? Any links left in posts I'm getting blank screens now? I know it used to work ?(

'''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.)''
* 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.''
I hope to hear from you very soon.

Can't open links in Skype, WLM nor saved HTML (Firefox won't respond)

"I can't open links in Skype chat windows when having a Firefox session running in the background, it just flashes the window borders. If i close Firefox and leftclick on the links Firefox automatically opens the link but not while having a session running in the background. Strange thing while having clicked the link and started a new Firefox session it opens the tabs as usual while clicking the links the next few times but closing Firefox again and restarting it and then click on links in Skype window, it doesn't respond. I have to bring the context menu and then choose copy adress."
I see there is no answer for the problem that guy have had and I have the same problem - links from skype and from windows live mail won't open and there's more - FF doesn't open html files that are saved to pc, even thou I just saved em, but when I click on em happens nothing and when I rightclick and choose open with FF happens nothing.
It worked for couple of weeks with no problem and suddenly today links just make skype flash exactly as in christianhbergs description and in windows live mail they are becoming purple but firefox doesn't react.
as soon as I make IE as my default - links are working, but not with firefox.
So I assume the problem is in firefox (not in skype or WLM nor in Win8)
(running Win8 and FF25.0)
And none of the solutions you gave us in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/961242#answer-497345 work.

Can't open links/hyperlinks in my mails....

Maybe its not the right forum, but I havn't been able to find help elsewhere. I'm using Outlook for Mac 2011 but can't open links/hyperlinks in my mails. The cursor turns into a hand as expected, but nothing happens when I try to activate the link. My default browser is Safari. Please help if anyone can..

Hi janjkp,
I don't use Outlook so I cannot test anything here.
Is Outlook the only application that this occurs?
If it is only Outlook, I would suggest that its a setting or bug in Outlook causing the issue.
Instead of just clicking on the link, try Command (or right) Click and see if there is an 'Open Link' or 'Open URL' selection in the contextual menu.
If you can open the link that way, see if there is a setting in the preferences in Outlook that stops links being opened.
Hope this helps

Can't open links/drop screens.

There are a number of sites that I can't open links, or drop screens on. Bodybuilding.com, and watchseries.it are two examples. BB.com I tried to sign up for a competition, and it did not register the submit button at all. Watchseries I tried to click show all links, and it wouldn't. It will however allow me to click other links. I tried removing Firefox, and reinstalling it to no avail.

Hi JZeroX ,
Sorry to bother you after your Firefox problem has been resolved, but I am wondering if you would be able to help us.
Could you first of all search on the computer for all copies of the following files.
# nptnt2.dll
# libinject2.dll,
# libredir2.dll
The first file does appear to have been on your computer. Possibly you will also have the other two.
Search Tips
* These instructions may help http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
* Also note Windows often hides the last part of at least some file names you may need to set Windows to show the full file name. The part of the file name after the last dot is often referred to as the file extension. See http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions#show-hide-file-name-extensions=windows-7
''guigs2'' from the Firefox HelpDesk will probably be following up on this post, but being paid staff is only available in working hours.
For now please try to find the files but do not take any other action, as you appear to have the file disabled, and we an not be certain yet that it is a bad copy.
Perhaps you could post back to say whether you are able to search for these files and whether or not you have found them.
Thanks in advance, John
'''Background Information'''

I can't open links in firefox. I must drag them to the tool bar or right click and open in a new page

I am running Vista and installed a new version of firefox yesterday plus I messed around with trying to block some obnoxious advertising pop up windows. Now I can't open links and must drag them to the browser bar or right click and "open in a new window". How do I fix this? I tried to restart Firefox but it didn't help. thanks!

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 or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Try to open a new window and see if that window works.

Can't open links in pdf file 9.3.2

I have installed Reader 9.3.2 and all of the sudden I can't open links within a pdf file. I get a block message and it doesn't give me the option to choose Allow. When I go to Edit > Preferences > Trust Manager > Settings everything is grayed out. I had to revert back to 9.3.1 for it to work again. Does anyone know the fix for this. Our 9.3.2 install was streamlined into a 9.3.0 msi package and then installed through a GPO.

same problem here.. but I figured it out.. Believe it or not, if you just wait 5-10min it will come up. I also "End-Task" on some exe that start or had "3D"in the name and after that adobe would come up fast when opening pdf's. Think you need to disable some of the internet related items under preferences.

Today I think firefox automatically installed a new version and after that it said my adobe flash was old so I had to update that. Now I can't open links in a new window.

Firefox doesn't install new versions of plugins, but Flash may update itself automatically. 
You are still one version behind on Flash, current is Flash 10.1 r85 
If the Flash player didn't update properly then you need to download the full version and run the installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as ...)
Flash Global Notifications Settings Panel: 
*http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.html
You are more versions behind on Java updates with having Java 6 U11, current is 6 U22.

Update the [[Java]] plugin to the latest version.

Gnome-Terminal can't open links anymore

Hey
I'm using Awesome as "DE" and gnome-terminal as my default terminal.
The Problem is that I can't open links in gnome-terminal anymore (through right click->open link). I get the Error:
Could not open the address "$Link"
Operation not supported
In the "gnome-default-applications-properties" I set "Custom" and used "chromium" as command.
Does somebody maybe know what the problem could be or at least where I can get a bit more error logs?
greetings
vIiRuS

What is the output when you run 'x-www-browser' in a console? It *should* work as I just had to investigate the very same issue this past weekend and it cleared up the problem for me.
Edit: Oh wait, I just re-read your first post...instead of right-clicking, try control+click. That's what I use.

[Solved] Thunderbird can't open link in Firefox after update

Today there were updates for Thunderbird and Firefox (and a few other). After that Thunderbird can't open links with Firefox. If I click on a link nothing happen. I started Thunderbird from terminal, and when I clicked on a link I got this message:
** (thunderbird-bin:6130): WARNING **: Could not launch default application for URI: Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-7.0/firefox" (No such file or directory)
I checked /usr/lib and the folder for Firefox was directly under it, no folder "firefox-version" in between. I guess one must change the path somewhere for Thunderbird to find Firefox. Where to change that? I have looked both in the menus in Thunderbird, and in the Thunderbird folders in my home and in /usr/lib, but I don't see the path to Firefox anywhere.

Unfortunately I have no idea what needs fixing. Have you tried to reboot?

Can not open links while in browser?

So, I can't click on links with the cursor while I am in browser, if it highlights the link I can right click and hit open link, but can not just click with the trackball, does anyone know how to fix this?

I asked your device operating system release?
lol, no, not a virus.
The most recent OS release you're likely running contains a bug. Just hover over the link and press Menu > Get Link.
it's be fixed in a later release.

Can't open some blogs, forums, websites and livestreams, but with Internet Exprorer I can?!

When I try to open some blogs, forums, websites and livestreams, they can not be opened. Specifically, as it is trying to redirect me to another link and it's always the same: gostats.com? But even this address does not open, but it just tries to load all the time, but without success. I haven't got such problems when all the same IP address is opened through Intenet Exprorer. Is this a problem with Firefox, or a virus, or something else?

More information. This morning, after waiting for a long time I got an error message from Foxnews.com that the page name was in error and showed some links to some news stories. Tried two of the Foxnews.com links and they worked.
The error message is:
Page Not Found
The page you are looking for has either moved or is no longer available, but
you may be interested in the content below.
So it looks like its the main page that causes the problem and it may be a Foxnews.com web site problem?
Still not working this morning so I tried "private browsing" and that worked.
So I tried two things and the second one fixed it, at least for now.
So first clear your cache. See "Tools", "Clear Recent History" and check the details to make sure you only clear "Cache" and whatever else you want cleared. I only cleared the cache.
But I didn't see "Clear recent history" I thought I could only do it in "Options". So I did it through "Tools", "Options", "Advanced", "Network" tab then under "Network Storage" click the "Clear Now" button.
So try and see if that works.
Otherwise I tried clearing all of the Foxnews cookies first. But that didn't seem to help by itself. So only clear them out if you have to. And add a comment here so other people know if they need to do both.

Firefox and Thunderbird do not communicate anymore : I can't open links from TB emails ( a href... ) and can't send mail from FF pages (mailto)

Hi there,
Please excuse me if a make a few mistakes, I am French ;)
I come here because firefox and thunderbird are not working together anymore. This is what happens :
- Firefox and Thunderbird are opened
- I click on a link in an email
- A few seconds after that a Firefox windows pops up. The title is : "Close Firefox", the content is : "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
Second case :
- Firefox is closed and Thunderbird is open
- I click on a link in an email
- A few seconds after that a Firefox windows pops up as expected. Firefox opens the link as expected but doesn't opens the other tabs as usual (when i start FF it re-opens previous tabs)
Third case :
- Firefox and Thunderbird are opened
- I click on a link to send an email (<a href="mailto:......@.....">)
- A few seconds after that a Thunderbird windows pops up. The title is : "Close Thunderbird", the content is : "Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
As in the second case, if TB is closed when i click on the mailto, TB opens properly and send the email.
If Internet Explorer is set as my default browser, it works fine for "Thunderbird -> link -> IE" but the "IE-> mailto -> TB" still doesn't work.
I already looked up for some answers on google but can't find something which works.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Vincent

Check the target field in the Firefox desktop shortcut and make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -no-remote switch or have set the environment variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 (Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment variables).
Always make sure to start at least the default profile without the -no-remote command line switch.
If you need to have more than one profile open at the same time then start subsequent instances with the -no-remote command line switch.
You can not send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the -no-remote switch.
In such a case you need to drag links in a Firefox window or paste the link in the location bar.

Can not open linked files - word documents

Hi,
Currently running SLED10sp1 with Adobe Reader 7.0.8 at a school. Some educational CDs use PDF documents with links to various files on the CD, especially word .doc files.
For example, one of the CDs has a start.pdf file in the root of the CD. When you open it it has a menu of a couple of categories. When you click on one of the categories it open activities.pdf which has an index of various subjects.
When you click on one of the subjects Adobe Reader says "Adobe Reader could not open 'act-01-01.doc' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
Click "OK" - the only option.
Adobe Reader says "The application "/media/path/do/act-01-01.doc" is set to be launched by this PDF file. The file may contain programs, macros, or viruses that could potentially harm your computer. Only open the file if you are sure it is safe. If this file was placed by a trusted person or program, you can click Open to view the file."
Buttons available are "Do not show this message again", "Do Not Open" and "Open".
Clicking Open does nothing.
When double clicking act-01-01.doc file from Nautilus it opens fine using OpenOffice.org 2.1's Writer.
When running Adobe Reader from the command line the following output is generated when clicking on the link to act-01-01.doc:
sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
sh: -c: line 0: `DISPLAY=localhost:10.0 ; export DISPLAY ; ( ) &'
Then when the "Open" button is clicked:
sh: /media/0731401689/technology/activities/chap01/act-01-01.doc: cannot execute binary file
The "Allow documents to open other files and launch other application" tick box is ticked in the Preferences.
Can someone please help.
Thanks.
Regards,
Rob

Thanks Salil, that works for one CD, the other CDs have spaces in files and directories and it looks like Adobe Reader doesn't know how to deal with the spaces.
For example:
In a terminal I execute:
acroread /media/MQ_9_NSW_5_3_SE/PDF/MQ9\ NSW\ 5_3\ Tech\ files.pdf
When I click on any of the links that link to a word doc files Adobe Reader exhibits the exact same behaviour as in my initial post.
This is the path of the file Adobe Reader tries to open:
/media/MQ_9_NSW_5_3_SE/Technology files/MQ9 NSW 5_3 TI GC programs/TI GC word docs/010-CoinflipTI.doc.
When I click open, this is what echos in the terminal:
sh: /media/MQ_9_NSW_5_3_SE/Technology: No such file or directory
I hope there is a workaround for this because the mime fix only helped me with 1 out of about 10 CDs.
For Adobe Reader to open Excel documents would I append:
application/msexel; ooffice "%s"
to /etc/mailcap?
Thanks in advanced.
Regards,
Rob
