Firefox 7 at launch get Windows error dialog "cannot find" URL
After upgrading to Firefox 7.0.1, on cold-launch of any URL via [Start][Favorites] menu, get *Windows* "cannot find" URL dialog BUT page DOES load in Firefox without problem. Cold-launch = Firefox not pre-loaded.
Still happens if I have IE8 open to the same URL prior to Firefox launch from [Start][Favorites].
I have tried suggestions on Help pages, did NOT fix.
'''UPDATE:''' Just got to work, and Firefox 7 does NOT have this problem.
'''UPDATE:''' Completely uninstalled Firefox 7, including \Apps Data\Mozilla folder, then reinstalled. Problem still there.
'''THANKS, the Registry edits worked.'''
Just unchecking '''Use DDE''' did not work, they just came back.
'''COMMENT:''' Wonder why upgrading to Firefox 7 caused this behavior, and just on my home desktop (''WinXP SP3''). This did '''not''' on my work desktop.
'''UPDATE:'''
Mentioned the my WinXP system at work did not have the problem.
Discovered that I did NOT have '''Empty Cache Button 1.9''' Add-on installed. AFTER installing it FF did have the same problem as my home system.
So it's the '''Empty Cache Button 1.9''' that screws-up the Windows DDE.

Firefox V4 opens Windows error message "Cannot find...."
I updated Firefox to version 4. Now, every time I open Firefox a Windows Error popup appears stating...
Windows cannot find
'https://login.yahoo.com/config/login_verify2?.intl=us&rand=832809823&i=IWZkZHNKIXRzZnNydEpidXV4dSF0ZEqOZHh4fH5iU356YmNYcnM%3d&.src=ym'
In spite of the error message, Firefox proceeds to open normally and takes me to Yahoo.com. Closing the error message has no affect pro or con...so, the message is merely a nuisance. I've tried everything I can think of to permanently remove it with no success. Running a deep scan to find out if it is a virus didn't find anything. Am using XP Home edition. By the way, I get a similar Windows error message when I try to open GMAIL, and Firefox then opens my GMAIL account. Weird.
Am hoping someone can tell me how to prevent these messages from appearing. Thanks in advance!Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows) -
When I try to open a .jpeg in Bridge CC2014, I get the error message cannot find Photoshop CS6.
I have associated my .jpegs with Photoshop CC2014. I had to do this manually. Now, every other program opens them in Photoshop, except Adobe Bridge CC 2014.
If I try to Open a .jpeg (or any other file associated with Photoshop) Photoshop from bridge, it says It cannot find the photoshop cs6.exe file. Of course not! I uninstalled it before I installed CC. Maybe two years ago. And now Bridge CC2014 goes looking for that as the CS6 default Photoshop.exe?I finally got it to work by going into Bridge->Edit>Preferences>Default settings. After choosing a file that is supposed to open in Photoshop, I chose to change it and browsed to Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop CC2014 and manually linking each filetype to the photoshop.exe.
I have spent the better part of a week getting Adobe software to work again after the Adobe CC2014 install. I will never trust Adobe CC updates again. They failed to warn me that CC2014 installs as a completely different copy rather than an update of CC. As a result, I ended up uninstalling CC apps after installing 2014. A mess that has cost me more than *30 hours* of chasing around forums, manually re-associating files. Even a registry hack! Found by a user, not by adobe.
Ordinary users shouldn't have to do this sort of thing after a normal install from the Creative Cloud panel. The genius software engineers at Adobe are being totally undercut by the keystone cops in the cc updates and install department. -

If your Mac is stuck in that screen, press Alt, Command and Esc keys, and force quit the app you are using to install that update (probably, App Store). Then, restart your Mac and try to install the update again, but now without opening Safari before -
Every time I TRY to start firefox 18-19 I get an error message : "Firefox has stopped working" - "close the program and check online for a solution" - or - "close the program" this happens TWICE every time I try to start firefox. Eventually after a random number of tries firefox will start normaly.

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you! -
I keep trying to load firefox 6 and keep getting this error - The requested URL /cse?cx=partner-pub-3540673482024757:xbhdw8hkfz5&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=&sa=Search was not found on this server. That’s all we know. in English
Bookmark and use this;
Download the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Mozilla Search Reset]''' {web link}
This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up
and then resets your search preferences and home page
to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This
affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
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:

I have tried a Clean reinstall but it did not help.Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
I tried to upgrade itunes and i get windows error 7
i tried to upgrade itunes and i get windows error 7 - it says "The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerEnableHardwareAcceleratedVideoDecoderKey could not be located in the dynamic link library AVFoundationCF.dll
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

I keep getting the error 306 cannot connect to the iTunes Network when downloading songs on iTunes. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps from the forums and my technical issues are still unresolved. I have Windows 7. Please help!!
iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1490 ) and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
To reset iTunes Store cache:
In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
Click the Advanced tab.
Click the "Reset cache" button.
Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
Open iTunes.
Access iTunes preferences:
On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Click the Parental Controls tab.
Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.
