"firefox already running"problem,uninstalled-reinstalled firefox still no luck,anyone? Thank You

Firefox was not in the processes in the windows task manager but "already running" would always pop up. Uninstalled reinstalled and "firefox already running"came up again.

Do you still have the default profile?

Firefox 3.6 will not open, uninstalled & reinstalled but still unable to open any web browser except IE8

Firefox 3.6 will not open, uninstalled & reinstalled but still unable to open Firefox or any other web browser except IE8

Sorry Chris but I don't even get that far - after download latest Firefox - I cannot get the installation to work. I get dialogue box with "0% extraction" then nothing also cannot get Opera to install. The installation stalls at the same point of extracting the download. The only browser to work is IE8. I think it is more a Java problem as everything worked Ok until I took a Java upgrade.

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 12.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*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.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile 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.

== This happened ==
A few times a week

Firefox is shutting down windows I want to remain open. Example: I am done viewing one window. I click the X to shut the window and it shuts two windows. Every single time, attempt to close one windows, two windows close. Lately, I have been opening several windows with nothing but google search, just so it will shut that window and not something else I want to remain open. I could understand this if I was using tabs, but I am not. This has been going on for over two weeks. I don't like going back to history to open a window, I did not want closed in the first place. Isn't that what 'Windows' is all about? Any ideas?

Since last update of Pages, my Pages app in iPad anda iPhone doesn't open, it closes suddenly. I already deleted it and reinstalled, but still not works.
Can someone help? Do I need to wait for another update?
Thanks

This is my problem that has to originate from the update. So glad that I did not purchase a MacBook! Apple products/apps are appearing to be not different from Windows products.
I have deleted and reinstalled from the device and desktop, resets, etc. When I uninstalled and reinstalled while connected to my desktop, the older version of pages was installed. I was able to see all of my files that were saved to the cloud. I was forced to update again to access any of the saved files. Once updated again, I could no longer open pages. It began, to open and abruptly shut down.

My yahoo account shows emails but they don't open. Then, I can not sign out. My aol account on mozilla firefox does work, however. Thank you.

I can sign on to Yahoo through Google. But thru Mozilla the "move", "delete" "spam" etc. indicators do not work. As I said before, I can not even sign out.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I cannot reply to Apple Support Communities questions? I have already cleared caches and cookies and still no luck?

Click on one of those files, then go to Get Info in Finder: select what application should open such files.

Hi Zac, sorry to hear about your troubles, but that's why us other users are here to try to help in these instances.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this connection drop happens.

You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

Bitte um specifischen Pfad um eine bereits bei 1und1 domain server bei google zu verifizieren. Vielen Dank

Download the html file google provides and put it in the root of your webserver.
Root is where you publish your webpages.
It's the file at the right of your your domainname.
Example:
http://www.yourdomainname.com/index.html
index.html is in the root.
To verify your site and if the google file has a name like dfrrndfbfgn.html, you provide this url to google :
http://www.yourdomainname.com/dfrrndfbfgn.html
Practice. And note that iWeb is not part of it.

I often get this message. Firefox is already running but is not responding.To open a new window you must first close the excisting Firefox process or restart your system.Thankyou Colin.

So this message appears mainly if I were changing web sites.Can't carry on until I have cleared everything from screen,gone on to my Thunderbird e-mail then Firefox will load again.I can then just carry on till next time.

Please look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
The initial problem is solved by killing any process firefox.exe, ( & maybe also plugincontainer.exe) Make sure you always close firefox by using the option Firefox Button -> Exit
You may need to investigate further and clear some of the duplicated files that may exist.

I get this message when I click the icon on the desktop or open a webpage from O.E.

Make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -no-remote switch appended to the command line.

When not on Firefox and go to do it, why am I constantly getting: "Firefox is already running but not responding. To open a new window you must close the existing Firefox process, or restart your computer." Moreover, HOW CAN I STOP IT FROM HAPPENNING???

Every time I have to re-start my computer I need to stop my work. It would sure be nice if you can tell me how to keep this from occurring.
Thank you.

Sounds like Firefox isn't closing down completely when you exit it. <br />
