Every time I have tried to install firefox 6.0, it has blue screen crashed my system - can you help?

I am using an old computer but it has dual processors and 4 gb of ram. I am using Windows XP home edition, sp2 atm. I have a Galaxy 200 vid card, sound-blaster X-Fi, Gigabyte mother board. Atm, all I have is IE 6.
After the blue screen crash, I had trouble rebooting my computer. When I was able to reboot, the firefox 6.0 would not run and I could not uninstall it. I did a restore system and was finally able to uninstall it - at the time I still had the 5.0 installer on my desktop so I installed it- I don't have it now.
I tried the firefox 6.0 before I had gotten all the updates for sp3- as I have had trouble getting the last windows updates to install.
I am not a techie - what I have done is trial and error to try to get my software to work. I would either like to get a working version of firefox 6.0 or a safe download of firefox 4.0 as that worked and I had no problems with it.
Can you assist?

Can you attach a screenshot or link to the instructions you are following?
You are on the 3.6 release and Firefox 7.0.1 is out. You can download and install the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ if you would like to update now. The 3.6 version will be maintained for a while longer, but you should update when you can.

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here - I've asked the hosts to remove the card code from your post.
    As it's a £25 card I assume that your account is also based in the UK (cards are country-specific). If it is and the page that you posted from doesn't help (the code on my card is longer, so is it possible that you've scratched some of it off ?) then you will need to try contacting iTunes support (you will need to give them as much of the serial number and activation code from the card as you can read) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes

    I am unable to access my iTunes store through my iTunes account. Every time I have tried it gives me an error ' cannot, connect to iTunes'

    check to see if you are online
    check to see if you can access secured websites (https) on your computer / device
    if this is on a computer with windows configuring your antivirus / firewall to not block itunes some times will help, also resetting your tcp/ip might fix it (open command prompt as an administrator, type: "netsh reset winsock" hit enter, restart computer

  • Every day I have to re-install firefox

    Every day I have to re-install Firefox, the link won't work. So I have to remove Firefox then re-install.
    Also Flash Player keeps crashing. I am using Windows Vista 64bit. I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, and Java.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    If the above Support Article does not resolve it... then you have a problem.
    Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
    Be sure to make an appointment first...
    Note:
    That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

  • I have tried to install Mountain Lion but it has failed to install properly

    I have tried to install mountain lion but it has failed to install

    If you open Finder and open your Applications folder list, under the alphabetically listed "I"'s you should see an application called "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app", if it downloaded OK.  This is the package that you double click on to begin installation of Mountain Lion.  Have you already done this?
    Hope this helps

    I'm still confuse  with this iCloud mail. I have 2 device which is iPhone and iPad, why every time I receive a mail from my iPhone it doesn't show on my iPad? Can you maybe help me out here thank you

    The iphone and ipad must be connected to the same icloud account.  Are you by chance using different IDs to connect from each device?

  • Every time I install an update of itunes, I get an error message saying: "/System/Library/Extensions/WkClassicNotSeizeDriver.Kext" was not installed Correctly. Has any one had it? Can you help me?

    Every time I install an update of itunes, I get an error message saying: "/System/Library/Extensions/WkClassicNotSeizeDriver.Kext" was not installed Correctly. Has any one had it? Can you help me?

    Find out what that third party software the kext file belongs to and update or use the developers method to uninstall the third party software responsible for it.
    I suspect it's a iTunes extension perhaps?
    You also can use the manual method of Finder > Go > Computer and opening your drive, then your  System/Library/Extensions folder and looking for the file and moving it out onto the desktop, you will need to be in Admin user and use your password, then reboot to clear the random access memory. However this method doesn't remove the parent program you still need to do that.
    How to uninstall/install software on your Mac
    The kext file wasn't loaded, so it's not running, but removing it from the Extensions folder or uninstalling what put it there will solve your notification problem as that's all it appears to be.

  • Why do I keep losing audio/recorded tracks and SFX in my projects? I have tried: Saving as archive file/searching package contents etc. to no avail. Can anyone help?

    Why do I keep losing audio/recorded tracks and SFX in my projects? I have tried: Saving as archive file/searching package contents etc. to no avail. Can anyone help? It keeps telling me 'Audio file not found', and seems to be different tracks in the same project each time too.

    I also have this problem using Garageband in a school network situation when students open their project on one station, save it to their network drive, and later open it at a different station.  90% of the time there will be no issue, but sometimes audio files are lost. (Garageband '11, iMacs)
    That sounds like it might be a failure of the students to perform a Save As and check Archive Project when they do. This asks GB to pull all the files it needs into the associated .band document rather than point to them externally (and then risk not having them be there).

  • All my photos in the iphoto have disappeared, not sure if this related to any iphoto upgrade or other issue, tried to find the photos through the finder (JPG or photo) but failed, can you help me to get back my photos please?

    All my photos in the iphoto have disappeared, not sure if this related to any iphoto upgrade or other issue, tried to find the photos through the finder (JPG or photo) but failed, can you help me to get back my photos please?

    Help us to help you: There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance. (And no, more exclamation marks do not get help faster or make your issue seem urgent. They just make it seem like you have a stuck key )

    Yep, as Michael mentioned, iTunes is accessing the internet matching the total bytes of the CD to the data base. Happens to me when I burn a disk in Roxio Toast 7, then mount it to listen to the recording in iTunes. Some of the strangest names appear.
    At first I couldn't imagine where these exotic names were coming from until I realized the app. was accessing the Gracenote CDDB (CD database). Unfortunately, you cannot deselect this process within iTunes. As Michael suggested disconnect your machine from the Internet before inserting the CD.

  • I cannot get .arw or jpeg files from my Sony A6000 to be taken into my Lightroom 4.4 via the normal "synchronise" process.  I have updated my Pc to Adobe RAW/DNG 8.4 with no improvement.  Can you help please?

    With regards to your .arw files:
    You need to either purchase and install Lightroom 5.4 -- OR -- download and install and use the FREE Adobe DNG Converter version 8.4, did you actually launch and use the DNG Converter?
    There should be no problem importing JPG files into Lightroom from your camera, what happens when you try? Is there an error message?

    That's not quite the proper way as far as I can tell. Usually, one boots directly into the Recovery HD using COMMAND and R keys at startup. If you cannot do that then most likely there is a problem with the hard drive. Since this is a new computer i would make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.
