Cannot open FF at all, causes pc to freeze. Only happened since recent update

After updating FF, have not been able to load FF. It causes complete pc to freeze. Have tried deleting FF and re installing in Kaspersky, still no luck. Ned to open FF to get to bookmarks. Am having to use chrome for now, but want FF as have used it for years without problems. Have this problem only on laptop running vista premium. Desktop running xp does not have this problem !

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

    Every time I try to open Safari it closes before I can type a website address, only started since update.

    Hi lpgn,
    If you are having issues launching Safari on your iPad after a recent update, you may want to try resetting the saved information in Safari. You may find the following helpful:
    Follow these steps to clear information from your device:
    To clear your history from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Clear History.
    To clear all cookies from Safari, tap Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies and Data.
    To clear other stored information from Safari, tap Advanced > Website Data > Remove All Website Data.

  • CANNOT USE COMPUTER AT ALL AFTER LOG IN. Only happening now.

    Well, I turn on my computer tonight, and guess what? After I log in, it takes me to a set up assistant, as if I only installed Leopard now. I complete this set up assistant, and go back to the login screen. I log in, and get the same set up window again! It keeps repeating, no matter what account I am on. This is terrible because I have no access what so ever to my computer's files at all.

    This is my history with the MAC this week.
    1st Login issues with 10.4.x
    Could not find my 10.4 DVD, So I went to Best Buy and picked up a copy of 10.5.
    Installed it changed my password no issues.
    WRONG.
    Installed the new update now my keychains are broke, I've tried the fix all of them but cannot seem to get it back.
    I was able to change my account login with out any issues but this keychain issue will not go away.
    I've tried to modify it and change it was per the Support site under the KeyChain manager with the same result.
    Does anyone really know how to fix this because it's starting to tick me off.
    Someone better get a hold of Steve here before I go see Bill again.

    Hi, InsaneCharlie. 
    Thanks for the question.  I see you have uninstalled iTunes and want this program back.  Start with completely uninstalling iTunes if present and all of it's components in the order specified in the article below.  Once this is done, download and install iTunes.  If none of your data was modified in the iTunes media folder, then your data should be present upon installation.

  • When i first open firefox homepage (opens with google) after 3 seconds page freezes and cannoct be closed. i have to open seconed homepage to shot pc down. this has only happened since i installed firfox 4. what do i do to fix this

    when i first open firefox homepage (opens with google as set by firefox) after about 3 seconds the page freezes and cannot be closed or minimised. i have to open second homepage to shut pc down or continue to use pc. this has only happened since i installed firefox 4. what do i do to fix this

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Since recent updates, I have noticed that my apps close automatically when I am distracted. In some cases it is time consuming to sign back in and get back to the task I was doing. Is it possible to change a setting so the apps will stay open?

    Since recent updates of iOS, I have noticed when using my iPad that my apps close automatically when I have to leave the room or am otherwise distracted for a few minutes. It is sometimes time consuming to sign back in and get back to the task where i left off. Is there a setting I can change so it will keep the apps open until I am ready to close them? Thanks for your help.

    Did you have this problem before Restoring you iPad?
    If you did then did you restore with a backup. You may have reinstalled something that is conflicting in this back up
    If not then sounds like either something went array with the clean install or a hardware issue.
    I know it's long winded but have you tired a clean install then downloading the apps again?

    my ipod classic 170gig disconnects when i open itunes? any ideas? It only happened since i uploaded new itunes version?

    The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device.  Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up.  It keeps syncing to the old library...
