This is a Windows error when a file is damaged, however please consider seeing a computer technician if you are seeing this in multiple programs.
For Firefox, I can recommend a clean reinstall:
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
WARNING: Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device! See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. 
Please report back to say if this helped you!
Thank you.

Ok so I cant open my Itunes due to Windows Error 2 and the message says to uninstall and re-install Itunes but I'm pretty sure that would wipe the library right? Is there any way to fix the problem and keep my library?

Hi neffn!
I have an article for you that can help you go through that process of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. If you have Windows 7, you will want to see this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
and if you are using Windows XP, you will want to reference this article:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
Note that, as it says in those articles:
iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Josejanko,
You don't supply much info other than your machine is old, so here is some info for you to check thru.
Before doing anything you should have a back up, preferably 2, in the event something goes wrong.
You would have to start by upgrading to Snow Leopard, you would need to buy the disk for about $20 here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Check the the requirements to see if your machine meets them.
You would then need to run the 10.6.8 v1.1 combo update to get it to 10.6.8 Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
You can then access the APP STORE and possibly upgrade to to further OSX.
You may have applications that will not be compatible with any thing past Snow Leopard, you can check those here Upgrading to 10.7 and above, don't forget Rosetta!
http://roaringapps.com/apps
Office 2008 will not work with anything newer than Snow Leopard for an wxample
You may be able to upgrade to Lion or MT Lion or Yosemite, depending on your machine, from the APP STORE.
OS X Lion - Technical Specifications Lion

Getting "Can not open the file due to unknown error(FRM:0007)"

Getting "Can not open the file due to unknown error(FRM:0007)", when refreshing the local copy of Deski report from user docs.
Any assistance
Thanks,
Sasi.

Hi Sasi,
One of the reason for this error is corrupted universe.So you can try following steps and restore copy of universe and then try to import this universe and check whether it works.
1.While importing a universe, a temp file is created in the users local settings temp directory.
2. For example C:\Documents and Settings\brijones\Local Settings\Temp\0dd0b0a7 .
3. File has no extension is relatively the same size as the original universe file.
4.Rename this file to original universe name.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Snehal

Hello,i have a macbook pro and i just recently downloaded facetime, and now i cant use it, it says An internal FaceTime error occurred,i dont know how to fix it, please help.

hello,i have a macbook pro and i just recently downloaded facetime, and now i cant use it, it says An internal FaceTime error occurred,i dont know how to fix it, please help.

If your webcam is powered by USB, make sure it is attached directly to your Mac and not a USB hub. In my case, I had my Rocketfish webcam attached to a peripheral USB hub and it wasn't drawing enough power to operate at capacity. Therefore, Facetime was quitting on me and giving me that exact error message. Once I attached the webcam directly to my Mac USB port, problem solved. Hope that helps.

On linux i cannot open firefox 33 due to exiting with failure status due to previous errors, file exists.

I am a newbie to computers and tried to update my firefox & downloaded it off of mozilla and tried to follow the commands as it was suggested for linux (ubuntu 10.04) to install it. Now when i click on the firefox 33 icon it shows that on command line ouput, tar: file exists, tar: exiting with failure status due to previous errors shows up. What do I need to do to update my current firefox? Please HELP!

Hi jadej740,
There are better forums for this knowledge, as Mozilla does not compile linux packages per build. [http://askubuntu.com/ Ask Ubuntu.com]
They may be able to give you a better answer. [[Install Firefox on Linux]]

I cant use my screen anymore?

My ipod was working fine until I downloaded a couple CD's onto it. Now I cant use the screen. I can turn it off using the home and hold button, but I cant slide to unlock or slide to power off. I tried resetting it and that worked for just a couple hours then went back to not being able to slide to unlock. Theres 16GB but I thought maybe I had too many apps so I deleted all but only 3 of my apps, but its still doing the same thing. It's like the screen doesn't realize that I am slide the button on the screen. How do I fix this?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Done
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I am unable to open firefox 4 properly without an error! HELP!

This is the message I now get everytime I try to open Firefox 4 broswer:
"Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features."
Now I have tried reinstalling it, disabling all the add-ons (including my Webroot), and scanning for every possible problem. I have 21 gig free space, so that's not it either. It does open and go to my home page, but it's jumbled and I can't do anything. Not even come to Mozilla's site. It just opens a tab and does nothing else.
I miss my Firefox already! Please does anyone know why this is happening and how I might fix it??

Okay I just updated the Graphics driver like it suggested in my system details part. No change.

Can only open firefox as admin, otherwise get error to say a security component could not be initilaised. Have tried deleted cert8 file but it is not recreated and still will not open

Had problems with os and now can not open firefox unless I run as admin. Error appears - Could not initialise the application's security component. The most probable cause is problems with files in your browser's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard drive is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the browser and fix the problem. If you continue to use this browser session, you might see incorrect browser behaviour when accessing security features.
I have tried deleting the cert8 db file but it is not recreated when I start firefox again. HD has lots of room. Can you suggest anything else to try please?
thanks, mandi

If deleting or otherwise removing the cert8.db and secmod.db file doesn't help then try a new profile.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Could+not+initialize+the+browser+security+component
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I can not open Firefox. Keep getting the error message "Failed to read the configuration file. Please contact your system administrator." What do I do?

I can not open Firefox. I keep getting the message "Failed to read the configuration file. Please contact your system administrator." I have tried uninstalling Firefox and then reinstalling it but without success. What should I do?

Which Fx version? When you uninstalled Fx, did you reboot computer before reinstall?
Also, check for / delete any leftover files in the Fx programs install folders, before reinstall?
Is your profile in the default location or custom location?
Have you tried creating a new, completely clean profile - to test (then make sure to select that profile to start Fx - from the Profile Manager)? (no addons or plugins installed).
Does the user acct (that Fx fails under) have access ("rights") to all locations - especially for Fx profiles location?

PSE 9 suddenly will not open pse files - due to "program error"

The program was working fine yesterday and now suddenly will not open pse files created yesterday or today. The error message reads "could not complete action due to program error." Am I going to need to deactivate and reinstall - and if so, how do I do that? Will I lose all brushes loaded into presets, all files currently unable to be opened if I do that?

I have the same or at least similar issue - When try
ing to open a Photoshop Elements 9 slideshow I get this message
"This application has requested the Runtime
to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact
this application's support team for further assistance" I first saw this problem today - can't think of why now. I've had the program since last Christmas.
I sure would like a solution as I'm in the midst of a project with it.

How can I fix this, I have installed Firefox again but no help.

How do you remove my compagion in modules? Please reply ASAP . Thanks .

Opening Firefox via Win7 Favorites produces error window, "There was a problem sending the command to the program."

Even though the error window pops up, the chosen website comes up normally in the browser. But I have to close the error window each time. This does not happen with Internet Explorer

Try create a new shortcut.
Go to '''Program Files''' then '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder then '''right click''' on the firefox.exe file and click '''Send to''' then '''Desktop (Create shortcut)''' to create the new shortcut to open Firefox.
thank you

I cannot open Firefox anymore and i have a MAC

I tried to download Internet Explorer for Mac and Firefox crashed. I downloaded another Firefox and it asked me to update some programs and it crashed again. I have Firefox 2.0 as i managed to open that but would really prefer my most recent one. I have never had this problem before and have been using Firefox for years now. I can use Safari and Google Chrome but want Firefox as it has all of my bookmarks and saved things. Help!!! I sent a report but never heard back or got any crash ID.

Does anyone respond to these questions?
