Firefox 4 beta won't install on Lenovo Vista Ultimate Laptop.

Desktop icon says 4.0 but 3.6 is what you get when you try to launch firefox. It appears that a restart was required for the beta to finish installing.

Issue is resolved.

  • How do I uninstall Firefox Beta and re-install Firefox NOT-Beta, and save all of my bookmarks?

    The constant updates associated with being a beta user are getting really annoying, and I want to opt out. Is it as easy as uninstalling, downloading the latest update of regular Firefox? Will all of my bookmarks and settings be saved?

    Yes, you can uninstall the Firefox beta release and install the full version of the current Firefox 9.0.1 to change the update channel from beta to release.<br />
    Firefox 10 will be released at the end of this month.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a (re)install, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Adobe Reader V9.0 will not install on Windows Vista Ultimate SP1

    I have Windows Vista Ultimate Build 6001 and tried to install adobe reader V9.0. The download was fine but when I run the program (AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe) it returns the error:
    "NOSSO (R) has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available
    Close program"
    So I guess my questions are
    1. Is there a version of adobe reader that will install on windows vista ultimate SP1?
    or
    2. Is there another pdf reader that will work with Vista Ultimate SP1?
    Thanks for any and all assistance!!

    I am getting the exact same error:
    I have a brand new HP xw8600 systems with 64 bit Vista Ultimate installed.
    Via google I found a suggestion to turn on user account control.
    I went to control panel > User Account > Turn User Account Control
    checked the box and restarted the system. I ran the install as the administrator. It was a minor improvement. Instead of the error coming up immediately like it was, I got the OS confirmation asking if I wanted to install the program. I got the failure right have selecting "yes"
    Running out of clues... any help?

  • Oracle 10g install on Windows Vista Ultimate

    Basic question on whether Oracle 10g can be installed on Windows Vista Ultimate. Any link suggesting the same will be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Kaz

    I have installed Oracle Database 10gR2 Enterprise Edition on Vista Business Premium and run it with no issues.
    Suggestion is to download the 'for Vista' version (http://download.oracle.com) and read the install manual (http://tahiti.oracle.com) before installing. The read the Platform Guide for Windows to follow-up management techniques.

Can I check the install log, if so where would it be and what would it be called ?
    Any help and sugestion on what to do next would be appreaciated.

    It doesn't matter if I click the Red X, go under File -> Exit or type Alt + F4 to exit out of Firefox under Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit. It almost always produces an error message that Firefox has stopped working.

  • Firefox won't open, thought maybe deleted, updated all plugins, still no Firefox so downloaded Firefox, but won't install and message box keeps saying to close Firefox so it can install. HELP!

    Last night my Norton told me to get rid of some of my programs so my computer would run faster. My computer was given to me with many programs already installed, and it is hard to tell from the names of programs what they actually do; but I figured if I could remove, then I could re-install if necessary. I removed a few before my brain was able to scream STOP. I cannot now remember which ones. No doubt this has everything to do with Firefox's "absence." (I do know that I did not remove Firefox itself, but possibly a program that plays a supporting role.) I'm dizzy trying to "fix" this, and if I was not able to LOL, I'd be crying all night! Thanks for any help.

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • WIndows beta won't install / deinstall / repair after bookmark import crash

    All,
    after installing the first beta on my (international) Windows XP system, Safari crashed when importing Bookmarks.
    It would not start thereafter.
    I tried to de-install, which failed for some unnamed reason.
    I now am unable to install beta 3.0.2, which aborts the installation process and instructs me to try later again.
    Nothing, including none of the "repair" switches of msiexec, either removes the remains of the old Safari, nor allows me to install the new Safari.
    Any help how I could force installation of the laters Beta, regardless of pre-requisites or checks?
    Greetings,
    - Thomas

    Hi Thomas,
    Ths installer cleanup tool is not the best as depending on your user rights on the system and a few other factors it will only show a subset of the programs installed (as you've found).
    In order to perform a full cleanup (detailed repair) of Safari you can try this from a command prompt:
    msiexec /fausmv {3F9EFA28-D2FE-44B7-8896-0B0FF8DF5517}
    or to remove completely use:
    msiexec /x {3F9EFA28-D2FE-44B7-8896-0B0FF8DF5517}
    The top command tells Windows to Fix All files rewriting User files, Shortcuts, Machine files and rebuilding the Windows Installer Cache (the v option).
    More detail can be found at Microsoft's website if you're interested: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314881
    Feel free to post any error messages you may receive. It might also be a good idea to update to the latest version of Windows Installer (3.1 v2) from: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=84088
    Having said all that, I cannot get Safari to even start once under Windows Vista ... It installs without event but when double clicked the disk does some whirring then the standard "Your application has crashed" dialog appears. Seems Apple are a long way off perfecting Safari on Vista.

    Firefox worked merely hours ago on my computer, had to delete as I explained above because of a dodgy toolbar from some website, deleted firefox, tried re-installing and won't work. Tried links on other help pages to download older firefox version and comes up with page "Whoops are you lost firefox page" and redirects to where I was. Very frustrating. I just want my firefox the way it was ?!

  • ITunes Won't Install On Windows Vista

    Hi,
    About a year ago, I had iTunes on my Windows Vista 32-bit SP2 computer and then I switched to Mac, so I uninstalled iTunes on my Windows Vista computer thinking I wouldn't need it anymore.
    Now I want to install iTunes again on it but, I keep getting this error message: There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
    At this point I really don't know what to do.
    Thanks.
