Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

First try to reset Firefox printer settings, if you are still unable to print you can then reset '''all '''firefox printer settings.
You mentioned there is no print.print_printer when you go to about:config. You have to type it in the actual '''filter '''field to pull it up.
Reset firefox printer settings:
1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
2. In the '''Filter''' field, type '''print.print_printer.'''
3. '''Right-click''' on the print.print_printer setting and select '''Reset.'''
4. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
'''The first way was just simple reset of firefox printer settings. However, if it failed to solve the problem then you need a full reset of all firefox printer settings.
1. Open your profile folder:
''At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu (on Windows XP, click on the Help menu) and select Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.''
2. Under the Application Basics section, click on Open Containing Folder. A window with your profile files will open.
''Note: If you are unable to open or use Firefox, follow the instructions in Finding your profile without opening Firefox.
3. At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.
4. In your profile folder, copy the prefs.js file to another folder to make a backup of it.
5. Open the original prefs.js file in a text editor (such as Wordpad).
6. Remove all lines in prefs.js that start with print. and save the file.

Xul runner platform version is not compatible and fire fox will not open - this is after upgrading to v 5

After trying to updat from 4.0 RC2 to 5.0.1 Error message appears
error: Platform version '2.0.1' is not compatible with min version >=5.0 <=5.0.
Have uninstalled and tried to re install earlier version but now get same error message but now get is not compatible with version >=2.0 <=2.0
currently not able to run or load fire fox at all

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up#XULRunner_error_after_an_update
The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.
You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Fire fox will not open and give the message that program is already running when it is not and i have to restart my computer. i am running windows xp and this problem started after the last up date. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program

is this a known issue?

If you close Firefox properly the problem will practically disappear.
To close Firefox properly:
:Closing Firefox ''(#close_firefox)'', avoid getting Firefox already running messages:  To properly shutdown Firefox when multiple windows or closing the
last window use File → Exit/Quit (or Firefox button → Exit).  Closing Firefox with the [X] in the upper right corner closes the window ("Ctrl+W") but that does not necessarily close Firefox if it has subtasks running.  If you want to close and reopen Firefox use the "Restart" within Add-ons if you made a change requiring a restart, or install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/restartless-restart/ Restartless Restart]" ("Ctrl+Alt+R") which will allow you to take Firefox down and restart without having to check the Windows Task Manager to see if Firefox first actually ended. ([http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs Firefox hangs])
In checking the Windows Task Manager be sure to check the "Process" tab not the "Application"tab/

Down loaded Itunes for my win8.1 but will not open, wont conect,how do i fix. thanx

trying to pu Itunes on my new computer win8.1,but it wont work even when it hit fix problem
any help please thanx

I have not seen your error in either my IE or my chrome. I do note that you are using a "strict" Document Type Declaration.
You might try a transitional DTD, which should be more forgiving than the strict:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Other than that, I don't see anything particular (because I don't see the error, either) that would cause the menu to drop vertically instead of horizontally.

Fire fox will not open on my laptop. When I checked my profile, I have two defalt profiles. Help.

Laptop Vista OS. Firefox opens about 10% of the time. Firefox is now opened in safe mode on the laptop. I started to troubleshoot by locating my profile. I found two default profiles. One named "8wc96kd.default-1350623840166" dated 10/18/2012. The other named "negyzq3j.default" dated 1/12/2008, This one has many more folders & files, . Neither one matched the profile on my Desktop XP computer. Thunderbird works well. At 77 years old I don't know what to do now.
Thank you,
Jim
[email protected]

for managing profiles have a look at: [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles|Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

Fire Fox will not open the last page of a multipage forum thread

On various threads it might only go to page 6 of a 7 page thread or it might go to page 12 of a 15 page thread..

3.6 had no such problem

I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:

I have a mac pro wich will not open windows in boot camp i get to the two options select windows but iyt will not load can you help please

i have a mack pro which will not open in windows from boot camp get to the two options and select windows drive but it will not open can you help Please

Hi there, Well, i thing i might have had the same problem (if you dont mean the selecting part, then try keyboad with usb and without if u dont have a macbook pro or so), i did the same and after selecting windows it said "No bootable disk" or " no boot disk" or something like that and the installer wont start when i was trying to install via CD/DVD.
The sulution is to use 2 usb-drives, one for the support drivers from apple and one for the windows it self after burning the CD/DVD to the usb on a PC using the windows own tools and creating a ISO file.
(there might be problems whit CD/DVD install sometimes)
The ISO file on a own USB is the most importat thing!! (and even apple and windows didnt know that but me and a technikal support guy from the store i bought it managed to fix it after like 4 days )
Hope it work now mate!

I have a mac Book that will not open DVD's of Business Presentations. I had my hard drive taken in to the Mac Store and had a new hard drive installed. Since then I cannot open DVD's. What is the application that I need, and the process. Tks

I have a mac book that will not open up DVD's recorded with a presentation. I install the disc in a HP / windows 7 and it works fine. I had my hard drive replaced and since then I cannot open up DVD's. Was there a application that did not get installed? And if so what is the process.

You need DVD Player. It should be in your Applications folder. If it is in there go to System Preferences>CDs & DVDs and for "When you insert a video DVD" make sure DVD Player is selected.

Adoby Acrobat 7.0 opens some times when I close firefox or fire fox will not shut down.

I have recently updated to firefox 4.0.1 and things are running slower and I have noticed that fire fox does not want to shutdown when I close it. Also every so often when I close fire fox my adobe acrobat professional will open randomly.

Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

Cannot open down loads ,i have windows vista , fire fox will not open downloads
