Firefox 4 won't run, no solution helps, had to remove and revert to 3.6 which works fine. When will bugs be out of firefox 4. I give up on it. Safe mode, reinstall, etc all never open

on a vista computer running system suite11 for antispyware nothing I could do would get firefox 4 to run. I downloaded it severeal times after uninstalling, closed the previous attempt at firefox.exe to try again and even tried safe mode though none was successful. I used chrome to do most of this that i don't like as well but it works. In desparation i reverted to Firefox 3.6 which installed and works fine now. I cannot figure out what it is that prevents Firefox 4 from running and am done wasting time. I will use the older version and when no longer supported go to IE or Chrome exclusively

I'm having this problem. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I updated to Firefox 4 from 3.6. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but got the same "Firefox has crashed" error. I sent in the report.

  • I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

    I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine.  I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.   I just get barely audible static.  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
    Thanks!

    Please help!

    You placed your incomplete problem statement as the title rather than as the content of your posting and it got cut off.
    Your CS3 Design Standard serial number is only valid for the CS3 Design Standard package of software.  You cannoit download individual components of it and use the serial number for them.  You need to install them thru the Suite.

  • Mail won't send mail when in wireless mode but works fine when wired

    Ok, this happens all the time. I have several pop email accounts, all of which work fine when I am hooked in to an ethernet cable, but Apple Mail won't send any of my outgoing mail form any of my accounts when i'm am working wirelessly.
    I always get a message like:
    Cannot send message using server smtp.name.net
    I try to switch servers and I cycle through all of them, getting them same message, followed by things like:
    The server response was: 5.1.2 Bad or missing RCPT domain k39sm5757680wah
    Any advice.

    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
    You may use “network locations” to more easily switch between network settings if necessary, as described here:

    I had this issue. I went to c:\program files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
    I renamed my plugins folder to plugins.old.
    It recreated the Plugins folder and all was good again. I have since reinstalled the plugins I've been prompted to install.

  • Why does firefox keep crashing? I ran a scan and there was no spyware or malware. I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox. It doesn't happen in safe mode.

    For some unknown reason firefox keeps crashing on my laptop computer. I mostly just use the internet for surfing and for emailing. It is very frustrating when I am trying to write an email and firefox crashes. I have unistalled and reinstalled firefox. I ran a McAfee scan on the computer and it has no problems with spyware or malware. It doesn't crash in safemode either. I am in safe mode now otherwise it would have crashed multiple times while getting to this page and typing this message.

    If Firefox crashes frequently but stops crashing when you are in Safe Mode that is a pretty sure sign that there is something wrong with your individual setup of Firefox on your Windows 7 machine.
    (The 99 others claiming to have the same problem this week probably have their own distinct and separate problems - if you are one of those 99 it may make sense to start your own questions about your problems, if you do not see suitable answers).
    Many malware problems would continue even in Firefox's [[safe mode]], so the good news is that malware may not be your problem.
    Note that safe mode does not disable plugins, you may wish to consider testing with your plugins disabled, just in case they are interacting with something. To temporarily disable plugins use
    * '''Firefox button -> Add-ons -> |Plugins|'''
    You do not list the Firefox extensions that are in use, maybe one of them is a problem. I suggest you try Firefox with half of them disabled, if that solves the problem, the troublesome add-on may be in the other half, disable them all and then try with half of the other half enabled. (If you have more than a handful of add-ons it is faster testing like that than enabling or disabling one at a time)
    One very important question is how do you know Firefox is crashing ? <br/>will you please explain exactly what happens, and what if any error messages you are seeing. (If firefox freezes/hangs that may be different from Firefox or the OS crashing, and require different solutions).
    On a general note the following articles may help with troubleshooting:
    * [[basic troubleshooting]]
    * [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_%28Firefox%29]]
    and if the problem is a true crash
    * see [[firefox crashes]]

  • Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    When you open Firefox in Safe Mode, it automatically disables your custom settings, themes, and add-ons. THOSE changes are temporary.
    However, if you click any of the boxes underneath the line, "You can make some or all of these changes permanent", and then choose "Make Changes and Restart", everything you checked will be forever changed, even when you start Firefox again in 'normal' mode. [See attached image for a preview of the Safe Mode options].
    To be clear:
    1. If you check any of the boxes but do NOT select "Make changes and restart", those things will not be changed at all in safe mode.
    2. If you select any of the boxes and you DO select "Make changes and restart", you will permanently lose any of the items you checked (bookmarks (except for backups), user preferences, etc.).
    If you performed the action in step 2 above, you will only be able to restore those things if you have a previously created back-up of your Mozilla Profiles folder (not the same as the Firefox program folder).
    Hope this helps.

    Michael,
    Thanks. I haven't mixed down the audio or checked the number of tracks in Prefs. Good points.
    As far as a mixdown goes, I'll definitely give it a try, though I wonder whether or not the tracks will be recognized during mix down recording - given that you can't hear either of those segments in playback. Just have to try.
    Re the preferred number of allowed tracks - I'll go check as soon as I send this off, but I'm not sure that applies in this case, since the two Channels containing the segments that are pinked out are not in additional tracks. I should have mentioned that other audio clips and segments on the same Channels in the SAME tracks ARE heard in playback. As are two additional track in the 2nd Sequence. It's only when the two sequences are joined that the pink tinted segments can't be heard. Within the sequence the same audio cuts playback as they should. Thanks again &
    Best regards,
    David
