mozilla: is required by evolution-data-server

I'm not sure if I'm unique but I have both mozilla and firefox installed after the last pacman -Syu and neither of them work.
EMERGENCY!!! My browser is not working!!!
Sorry, just a little melodrama 8-)
But, in fact, it is somewhat of an emergency for me.
I've found that in general pacman -Syu does not work for me. Something requires tweaking afterward. Minor tweaking, or MAJOR tweaking. Mozilla and thunderbird are often at the heart of the trouble and I depend on both of these for daily operations (this is NOT a game machine, although I have a 5 year old and a broken game machine can be a different kind of emergency 8-)
So I've gotten into the habit of getting my machine running AND LEAVING IT ALONE. Unfortunately time does march on, and once I come around to NEEDING to upgrade then it's always a MAJOR tweaking effort.
This kind of brings us up to the present.
mozilla 1.7.7 and mozilla-firefox 1.0.4 are both installed.
If I type mozilla or mozilla-firefox on the command line, nothing happens!
No return to the prompt, no output, nothing (I used to get the Seg Fault mozilla-sh $(1+($PROG)) error with 1.7.7, now I get nothing).
I had prviously just been downgrading mozilla back to 1.7.3 to make things work. Now I'm not allowed to remove firefox, and it conflicts with the older mozilla, so I can't downgrade, so NO MOZILLA!!!!
That brings us completely up to the emergency. I'm posting this with konqueror, which is nice but not adequate for my surfing requirements.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thank You...

  • My Google Homepage IE recognizes an Adobe Flash and my Firefox Google needs its own. Also, I may wish to cancel my Firefox entirely...will anything about that conflict w/a Thunderbird Mozilla internal feature email program, and/or Gmail? Thanks.

    Thank you for reading the above question as it is, plus: I lost my Thunderbird computer internal email feature & was new & did not know how to put Yahoo or other into that function. I signed up for Mozilla Firefox for my Toshiba PC laptop, really liked it, but do not really use it. I restored my Thunderbird program, using Gmail for it...the Yahoo had failed. If I decide to delete my Firefox will that malaffect my Thunderbird Mozilla? Also, for some reason unknown to me, my Firefox does not recognize to use the Adobe Flash in my computer and requires its own...'usual? (I just deleted one of two carried.) Thanks. Lynn

    First, Firefox and Thunderbird are separate programs. You can use one or the other or both. If you decide to uninstall Firefox, that should not have any ill effect on Thunderbird, but of course it's a good idea to make regular backups of your computer just in case.
    Second, Internet Explorer uses a proprietary Flash player, so you do need a different one for Firefox. If you visit Adobe's "about" page using Firefox, it will push the correct plugin to you.

  • I have Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in won't allow me to watch YouTube videos

    Up until last week I had IE9 and was able to download and watch YouTube videos with my son and play Facebook games.  Then one evening I tried to pull up a Yo Gabba Gabba video on YouTube and the video window was blank.  I had watched this video the night before with him, and the only thing I can think of is there was a Flash Player update that tried to download.  I saw several posts that suggested downloading a new broswer, but I waited for 3 nights thinking it was just a glitch.  I finally gave up and sent a pm to one of my friends who is a Internet Service Technician.  She told me to download Mozilla Firefox, which I did, and the problem seemed to be solved.  I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos, as well as play games on Facebook.  And it seemed my pages, pictures, etc. all downloaded 10x faster.  That worked until the next evening and suddenly I once again could not download and watch YouTube videos.
    I checked my system and it found that Adobe had done an automatic update so that instead of just having Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I now had Adobe Flash Player 13 plug-in.  I also noticed that Adobe Air was downloaded on my computer.  I went in and uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in and I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos.  But when I tried to play games on Facebook I was told I would need to install at least Adobe Flash Player 10.0.2.  I went to find that or an older version but each time I tried to download from Adobe I would get the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in version, and once again I was unable to download and watch YouTube videos.  I was, however, able to play the games on Facebook again.
    Remember when I just had Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I was able to do both while having Mozilla Firefox.  I have looked all over the internet and I cannot find recent articles that talk about this problem.  Can someone please tell me what I can do so that I can keep Mozilla Firefox, as it is 10X faster than IE9 and with Firefox my Facebook doesn't crash all of the time?  But I also want to have the ability to download and watch YouTube videos with my son, as well as the play games on Facebook.
    I should also note each time I went to uninstall Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in I received an error message saying there was a conflict with Mozilla Firefox and I first had to shut it down before the uninstall would proceed.  Also, I received a reply on Adobe's Facebook page from a Tech who had me check to see if I had the latest version of Flash Player.  I did have the most recent version.  He then asked me to go to my add-ons and enable Shockwave.  I followed the instructions and it was already enabled (or it said always activate).  Neither of those helped me be able to download and watch YouTube videos.  But I can still play Facebook games.

    What is your current Flash Player version: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html ?

  • Is it true that current version of Mozilla Firefox including its updates can currently cause Windows 7 and/or Windows XP to crash?

    I was advised in the first week of September 2013 by our IT contractor, that the current version of Mozilla FireFox (and its updates) is causing computers with Windows 7 to crash? (NB: specifically, we have Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1, 64bit). Is this still the case, and if not, do we need to upgrade to a newer version of Win7 (if one exists). Also, is there currently a problem with using Mozilla Firefox on a computer with Windows XP Home Edition, version 2002, service pack 3? NB: We have a server and our computers are on a network.
    Thanks heaps, as would really like to change back to FireFox when possible.

    That shouldn't be the case but most likely what I can think of is the graphics driver conflicting with Firefox. We can troubleshoot this issue if you'd like to.

  • Adobe flashplayer won't continue downloading until I close Mozilla Foxfire,Adobe says it's conflicting the download. How do I close Mozilla Firefox?

    Adobe flashplayer won't continue downloading until I close Mozilla Foxfire. Adobe says it's conflicting the download. How do I close Mozilla Firefox so I can finish my download of Adobe Flash Player? And then how will I turn Foxfire back on once Adobe Flash Player is done downloading?

    To close Firefox, in the menus select "File > Exit", you can start Firefox by using the same shortcut that you used to open Firefox originally.
    I would ignore the instructions from Adobe. Adobe uses its own download manager but it is not required. All you need to do to install Adobe Flash is download the Adobe Flash manual installer and run it. For details on doing that see the Adobe troubleshooting article - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller

  • Will Mozilla firefox conflict at all with my Macbook Pro operating system?

    Will Mozilla Firefox conflict with my Mountain Lion operating system and Safari?

    No, why should it?
    Any program you install can contact the Internet, if you don't like the Safari web browser (and many don't) then your certainly free to install a alternative.
    Just don't install a web browser from AppStore, because Apple has a 4-8 week delay while they review all apps there, leaving a window of opportunity for your machine to be hacked.
    Security Issues Warning List
    Harden your Mac against malware attacks
    Apple is notoriously slow in issuing security updates for OS X, Safari, iTunes etc, doing so many months (or in one case 3 years) after being notified of the issue.
    https://krebsonsecurity.com/2011/11/apple-took-3-years-to-fix-finfisher-trojan-h ole/
    To install Firefox you'll likely have to head to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Security > General and where it says Downloads select "Anywhere" (you can always turn it back later)
    Then visit this page, check the status of your plugins and there also is a download for Firefox on the same page.
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    It will be in your Downloads folder and you open that, double click the installer or package to open it to show the program and drag it to your Applications folder, then from there drag a icon (alias) to the Dock so you can access it quickly.
    Firefox has tons of Add-ons, more than anyone else.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
    Plus tons of persona's that dress up the browser
    https://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/gallery/All/Movers/100
    It's a customizable browser, there are already many themes others made
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/complete-themes/
    It also auto updates by itself and the add-ons, security issues are fixed very rapidly and can come out within hours of a exploit being known.
    So it gets updated very fast, unlike Safari which is glacial.

  • How do I get Mozilla Firefox to download for GB version because all I keep getting is the US version, which is conflicting with AYI on Facebook.

    How do I get Mozilla Firefox GB version to download? because all I keep getting is the US version, which is conflicting with AYI (Are You Interested) on Facebook. Which won't allow me to access my messages, browse and see who's viewed me on this site. But I have had Mozilla Firefox before (English version) and it as allowed me acces to AYI on Facebook. so I cannot understand why the US version won't allow the same access to AYI on Facebook?

    You can download Firefox in many different languages.<br>
    You can view the available languages [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ here].

  • An Incompatible Browser Has Been Detected need Windows 7 - Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x and 3.6.x

    I'm trying to apply for FASFA student aid. When I click on the "apply now" button the "An Incompatible Browser Has Been Detected" page displays. The Mozilla Firefox requirements for Windows 7 is the 3.5.x and3.6 x version. I had already downloaded the 5.0. Have probably made a mess of things, I think I disabled the 5.0 but need the 3.5x etc. to be able to complete the FASFA form.

    You could install the portable Firefox version 3.6 to avoid a conflict with the newer version. If you can contact the person running the page itself, you could advise him that Firefox is now up to version 6, and version 7 will be available soon.

  • A program called pc keeper has attached itself to my Mozilla Firefox, and I am no longer able to use it. Even uninstalling and reinstalling is a no fix.

    Yesterday I discovered a pop-up attached to my Mozilla Firefox, it was essentially a white box, with a grey bar inside, which I dangerously clicked as it would not allow me to close or access my Mozilla. Clicking the box revealed an ad for something call PC Keeper which now also shows in my remembered links as being in a second window. I was forced to shut down my computer to close the Mozilla, making all my links unavailable to me, and ultimately had to uninstall it from my computer. I attempted to reinstall a new version, but, again found this PC Keeper attached to it, it's white window firmly locking everything up, and forcing me again to uninstall the program. Please, find me a way to once more have my Mozilla without this PC Keeper.

    You seem to have an idea that a virus will break your laptop, which isn't true. Viruses do not cause physical damage to a computer, anything they do is software related, all of which can be undone.
    I think that you may be leaving your Firefox profile intact when you uninstall Firefox, is that true? Are you checking the box "Delete user data" when you uninstall Firefox?
    Don't just give up, this is something we can resolve if you will just work with us :) and i promise, your computer will not be damaged and you won't have to buy a new one. I've spent 6 years removing viruses and never had one so bad a computer had to be replaced

  • How do I enable some scripts to run in some programs/websites and what happened to the status bar of my Mozilla Firefox 4?

    Well, first of all, I was tying to create a web-based computer game in Notepad in H.T.M.L., C++, and JavaScript codes. But when I tried to open the completed product, Firefox only came up with a blank page. What do I do with this? And also, I unwittingly removed the "Status Bar" on the bottom side of my browser(the one that always says "Transferring data from/to..."), and when I tried to bring it back up, I couldn't because I don't know how, since I'm new to Mozilla Firefox 4. If you could help me with these problems, Then I would greatly appreciate it.

    You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)<br />
    Also check the Options of Status-4-Evar in Firefox (or Tools) > Add-ons
