Computer crashed while Firefox was updating and corrupted the program so it won't open at all and I can't get my many bookmarks

I have had recurrent problems with my computer crashing for the past several months that I was not able to fix. I was downloading and installing updates for Firefox when the computer suddenly and completely crashed - just an immediate shutdown. When I was able to reboot it, Firefox would no longer open, and I got the following error message, along with the 'bong' sound or an error: C:\ProgramFiles\MozillaFirefox\js3250.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error...." The crash in the middle of the download corrupted Firefox so that it could no longer be accessed. HOW CAN I RECOVER MY FEW HUNDRED IMPORTANT BOOKMARKS? Any help you can give me with this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!! Ron

Do you have a PowerPC processor or an Intel processor?
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and a Mac with an Intel processor.

My computer restarted while I was updating my software from OS4 to OS5 and now my ipod is froze in a way that it shows the symbol that I should connect it to itunes. I connected it but itune is not recognising it. I have tried to reset but it nothing.

My computer restarted while I was updating software from OS4.1 to OS 5. Now my Ipod touch is just frozen. All it shows is the usb connection to itune symbol. Itune does not recognise. I have done the reset but nothing happens after the apple symbol shows up and back to usb and itune symbol. Help please.

See if placing the Ipod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so yu can restore the iPOd.. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Next try DFU Mode.

1) WHAT if I juse JUST ONE Adobe program pretty often?
They have a single use subscription for $20/mo. Similar to upgrading extended version every 1.5 years.
2) WHAT if I created projects like 2 months ago and I didn't use Photoshop for a full month. Who assures us that with the CC series the projects are opened with the old CS ones?Or don't use it every day?
Same problem if you own it. If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month. You can choose not to update and version will be same as when you last used it.
3) WHAT if I don't use Adobe 24/7? and 5) Making an day-based subscription?? Same problem if you own it. If upgrade price is $400 every 1.5 year that is same as $16/month.
4) Adobe, do you think to be the only one making these softwares?
Competition is always a factor in market.
6) After all this mess, you discriminate Europeans, too?
Taxes charged by Governments and municipalities are not controlled by Adobe.

Our apple desktop has hard time getting online after firefox was updated early August- the home pc has no problem, apple had no problem until firefox update.

Home has two desktop computers. Modem and router are near PC in front of house. Apple desk top is in rear location of home. Early August, 2011, firefox was updated from front computer. Since then, apple computer has had inconsistent online experiences. Sometimes it is not possible to get online while front PC has not problem. This is annoying for the apple user. And the problem started only after updating Firefox. Please help! Thnx.

Recently accepted an itunes update and now the program will not launch or open on my computer

I recently accepted an itunes update on my computer - now the application will not launch or open on my computer. any ideas or help?

A few details would help here. What kind of computer? What operating system is it running? What version of iTunes was running previously? Was there an error during installation? What actually happens when you try to launch iTunes now?
Let us know we will keep working with you.
Best of luck.

Firefox won't open at all, and when I try to use the 'run' feature, it says the file has been moved, etc. I use Windows 8 and I can not lose my bookmarks. Help?

Firefox has been working great on my computer for months, and then all the sudden it wouldn't load any pages. So naturally I restarted my computer, but when it restarted Firefox wouldn't open at all. The icon glows for a bit like normal, then it fades and never actually opens. When I try to use the 'run' command, I get this error:
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."
I also tried the same for the file in the x86 folder but it gave the same error, and I went and looked for the files in the location given and they were there.
Firefox didn't crash, so there aren't any other error messages I can give you.
The things I had bookmarked are really important, I can not lose those, but other than that I'm fine with anything else needing to re-installed, etc.
Help please?

But I can't... find... it... It's not there.
Unless you're talking about the entire Mozilla Firefox folder (which isn't what the thing you copied says,) there is no installation folder.

This AM I found that Firefox was longer pinned to the taskbar, found lots of files, got new icon for exe pinned, but none of my bookmarks are there.

Was also seeing little Chinese or Korean characters next to tabs, so I'm thinking previous download was hacked? Never found anything missing before though, so I figured that was just an anomaly.
Anyway, I'm hoping that I can use some of the files that are still hanging around (files I can't open) and thinking they probably have all of my settings stowed away in there - like I see one labeled "cookiejar" and plenty of others that only the program can read.
Please let me know if I need to start from scratch.
Thanks,
JH

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

I have transferred my music to new computer but music is not showing in iTunes - although is on the computer as if I select a song from the folder it will play that song via iTunes. How can I get my music to show?

I have transferred my music to a new computer following the instructions carefully but for whatever reason the music does not show on iTunes on the new computer. The music is there as I can access it via My Computer and if I select a song it will show in iTunes and play - however I can not do this for every single track! Can anyone suggest something I have done wrong????

Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

My itunes won't open at all and has the Error message (13014)

PLEASE HELP!
I recently upgraded my itunes to the itunes 9. Now it won't open even if i try with the option key, but i may be doing the wrong thing. It won't even open when i reboot my computer. It was doing fine at first , but now it won't let access my music at all. Any solutions? I would greatly appreciate it.

No thats not right, iTUnes uses parts of quicktime to play audio and video. You need to go here and download the stand alone version of quicktime. Now apple has recently changed this page to include quicktime with iTUnes and then qwuicktime only. get the one WITHOUT iTUnes,

I can't get firefox to open at all. I can't get it open to do anything on the firefox window such as open it in the safe mode.

A small screen tells me firefox was shutdown and windows was looking for a solution. I deleted Firefox and downloaded another Firefox program and installed it. The same thing happened. What do I do. Windows said it could be a DEP problem. I have no idea what that is. I can open Windows Explorer and use but I don't really like it. Help!!!

OK - undo the changes you made to DEP.
Open Firefox - take a screenshot of any message that appears and post back here

On the taskbar and in the start menu, iTunes only shows a default icon. How can I get the iTunes icon back?

I know it is only a petty thing, but it is really annoying me.
It has only come about since the last update
I have tried rebuilding my Icon cache, and unpinning the shortcuts and creating new ones, neither has worked.
It is really niggling at me - any ideas? I'm on windows 7, and all my updates are current, and my virus scan clear.

By "tabs", do you mean something like this -
If that is what you see, then you may be right-clicking on the icon instead of left-clicking on it.
Right-clicking or Control-clicking on an icon in the Dock will bring up a menu like that (it is a contextual menu, so its content varies a bit from program to program).
Usually, it is necessary to only click an icon in the Dock once in order to start up the program (if it has been quitted) or make it active (if it has not been quitted).

Since I downloaded the first update of OSX Mountain Lion iWork '09 won't open. All that comes up is an error report.

My iWork '09 (pages, numbers, keynote) all won't open since i downloaded the first update for Mountain Lion. When i try to open it, it just comes up with this error report:
Anybody else have this problem? Anybody know how i can fix it? Or even get round it, so i can save my documents in Microseft Word format, so I can use them if/ when i need them elsewhere?

Remove (Uninstall) iWorks then reinstall then the first thing to do is run Sftware update.
Or go to thje Apple Down load site and get the newest updates for iWorks 09.
