Firefox closes right after startup, even when starting in safe mode

I have tried all the steps in the "Firefox crashes" article but none of these helped.

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+crashes
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

TS4284 iMac won't start ... Disk0s2: I/O error when starting in safe mode

My iMac started lagging badly with a color wheels spinning round and round, so I rebooted and now it won't startup at all.
All I get is a white/grey screen with the Apple logo and a spinning wheel, but no joy in starting up.
I managed to start in safe mode, but it stopped at the following:
disk0s2: I/O error.
0 [Level 3] [ReadUID 0] [Facility com.apple.system.fs] [ErrType IO] [ErrNo 5] [IOType Read] [PBlkNum 1544944] [LBlkNum 3758] [FSLogMsgId 1702152349] [FSLogMsgOrder First]
0 [Level 3] [ReadUID 0] [Facility com.apple.system.fs] [DevNode root_device] [MountPt /] [FSLogMsgId 1702152349] [FSLogMsgOrder Last]
Don't understand a word of this, but would appreciate any guidance as to what to do? Is it time to take it in to the Apple Store or do I just dump the machine and get a new one?
I wonder if this is not caused by any updates? Would that be possible?

Could the drive be taken out and accessed via a ISB cable so I can at least rescue my iPhone and iPad info?
Without any problem. Just extract the hard drive, buy an enclosure to put the hard drive and connect it to your new computer after setting it up, so you will be able to transfer all your data onto the new Mac. You can find some enclosures in OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/External-Enclosures/

No wireless when starting in Safe mode - iMac 21.5 i5 OS X 10.6.7

On my new iMac i5 21.5" (2011) system when I startup in Safe mode the Airport driver isn't available. On my old iMac 24" system I did have wireless networking when booting to Safe mode.
Is this expected behavior with the new iMac i5 under 10.6.7?

Now it is clear which it wasn't before! We can't see what you have done or not so a good descriptions does help when communicating.
If you have done all you say and some restarts too I would advise you to do the install of 10.6 from the installation disc. Restart the computer and then install the 10.6.6 Combo update. You just install "on top" of what you have. No archiving or formatting.

Firefox crashes after upgrade and wont start in safe mode crash report is Crash ID: bp-4a1fc5e6-6afb-4c5b-9e4e-47ad12130514

I cannot open FF after an upgrade. The first time I tried to upgrade I had to cancel the upgrade before it had finished as I was called away. The second atttempt went to completion OK with no error reports. However, I cannot start FF. I can't try safe mode as if I try to open while holding shift key down the screen asking if I want to open in safe mode flashes by very quickly and goes straight to the crash screen. Ive tried deleting FF and reinstalling (without deleting profile) but same thing happens. I dont want to try deleting including profile as I dont want to lose my history and saved passwords.

Thanks for extremely fast reply. That makes sense as I downgraded to FF16 about a month ago as I was having problems with FF20. That was about the time my company took on the Websense security. FF16 has worked fine so do you think it will work if I go back to FF16? I would have to approach Websence via my company's IT support and they would probably say I shouldn't be using FF anyway!

Firefox crashes constantly after about 5 min (not in Safe mode)

Basic info: using Firefox 14, was working fine until i came back from vacation, fired up my PC, and updated 3 things, Adobe Flash, Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit), and AMD Catalyst control center with the new 12.8 update, then restarted.
Have slowly been attempting to pin down the cause. Uninstalled Flash, firefox still crashes. Tried moving the Mozilla folder to desktop so I could simulate a reset, firefox crashed anyway, so i put the old folder back.
Read some troubleshooting pages on the firefox page and went down the list making sure all was updated and then tried running in Safe mode. So far no crash and we are going on 15 min here, the best I've seen so far.
Note: Just realized my Java version was out of date, uninstalled the old versions and installed the new version. Will see if this helps.
Note 2: Nope, Firefox is still crashing regularly. Java was not the issue. Didn't think so, but was hoping....

Hi edasvangen, try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
(WIN) orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced<br>
(MAC) Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved (or at least greatly improved)?

Firefox crashes on opening and will only start in safe mode

On starting, Firefox gives me 2 options: to reset Firefox or open in Safe mode. If I choose reset, it crashes.
I have restarted the computer, reinstalled Firefox and disables hardware acceleration. I have also checked that Windows update KB 2670838 does not exist on my system.

hello, could you provide your latest few submitted crash reports? please enter '''about:crashes''' into the location bar, copy the latest few report ids from there & paste them here into a forum reply. this will give us a better understanding what may be triggering those crashes.
i'd also recommend to run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

Upgraded to 6.0.2, now get "Firefox had a problem and crashed". Starting in Safe Mode does not help. Now what?

Not sure what version I was running, but it worked fine but I have not been able to get it running again. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results. Have followed the help pages to the point of obtaining the Crash Report... now what?
I did notice the CR seems to think I am running Windows XP but I am actually running Windows 7 (64 bit).

That gives Firefox 6.0.2 Crash Report [@ nsHttpHandler::QueryInterface(nsID const&, void**) ] https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/d2eddeb0-5845-4c72-987a-ad0282110917
Unfortunately that is not really getting anywhere yet, you could become the first person to file a bug about that particular crash, but that takes a bit of time and testing.
There is a known problem causing firefox 6 to crash and that is the use of IDvault, that can give more than one crash signature, the software developers regarding ID vault are WhiteSky, and are expecting to release a fix in a few days (if they have not already done so)
Have you tried
* using firefox's [[safe mode]]
* disabling all plugins
Does that help, either by preventing crashes or giving another recognised crash signature. You should also ensure all software is up to date, before trying adding extension software back.
The other common cause of crashes is malware, that includes a particular Trojan that is now known to crash Firefox 6. Check out [[is my firefox problem a result of malware]] you will need to do scans using software or sites with up-to-date scanning software, if you do scan for problems say what sites or software you used and the version of software used. Downgrading firefox versions rarely helps with crashes, it may help with the one specific trojan, but the security risks would then remain, potentially causing even more problems because the browser no longer crashes.

Excel 2013 hangs during startup--Excel 2013 starts in safe mode.

All Com's disabled. Word, Powerpoint, and Publisher 2013 open normally.
Excel 2010 starts normally.

Hi,
Since you said that Excel 2013 can start normally in safe mode, then this issue seems to be caused by some add-in. Disable the add-ins to check the issue.

Firefox closes right after I click anywhere on the page.

I uninstalled and reinstalled firefox for couple of times to solve out my problem. Earlier it was saying that some .ddl is not a valid image. So, I changed the location of installation. Now its opening but when I click anywhere on the firefox window it closes without throwing any erro.

Maybe you have viruses or spyware on your computer. Scan it with antivirus program.

Kernel Panics on startup and when starting in recovery mode

I have a brand new Mac mini late 2014 right out of the box (2.8ghz, 8gb ram, fusion drive)
Upon initial startup the computer froze with a spinning wheel of death during the setup process and then restarted with a kernel panic. The computer kernel panics every time I restart or if I try to go into recovery mode. I live in Ecuador and am about a 10 hr drive from where I bought the computer. Hoping someone might have some insight or can understand any of this panic report. Thanks in advance for any help.

Firefox used to work on my windows 8 machine, now it does not, even starting in safe mode and after un/reinstalling. message "firefox has stopped working".

Firefox used to work fine, then a few days ago it just stopped. When I try to start it, it comes up with a message that "firefox has stopped working". That message comes up over the box that asks if I want to start in safe mode or reset firefox. when i try to close or cancel that message so I can try starting in safe mode, both sets of messages go away.
if I try to start in safe mode using the shift key, the same thing occurs. The same thing occurred after I uninstalled and reinstalled.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program 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 personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

After updating Firefox, it wants to start in safe mode, when you click reset & restart it starts and runs fine, how do I make it stop opening in safe mode?

I recently updated my Firefox to 3.5.9 for Google pack, after doing so Firefox would only open in safe mode. So I started in safe mode that one time. Everafter, when starting firefox it always opens a dialog window about safe mode, I click the option to reset the toolbars and restart, and it starts normally. I'd like to make it stop opening with this dialog, and just open normally without asking about safe mode.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I updated Firefox

See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+is+stuck+in+Safe+Mode
Your Firefox 3.5.9 is 2 versions behind. The current version is Firefox 3.5.11 which includes several security updates. In addition, support and updates for the Firefox 3.5.x series is planned to end in August 2010. Consider upgrading to the latest version Firefox 3.6.8:

OK, with the help of telephonic Support, which I could not
find at
first, I solved it. I already guessed it was the Prefs file,
like I had
about a year ago as wel with Photoshop. Could not find such a
file, but
talking with support it turned out to be the complete
Dreamweaver folder
in Documents and Sttings and inside the folder with my name
et.
After renameing the Dreamweaver folder, Dreamweaver started
and created
a new folder.
Jippie! It's working again.

Firefox won't close without using Task Manager - end process; can't start in safe mode or disable add-ons

I've been having a memory leak/hanging problem for weeks -- FF slowly increases memory usage until it's at almost 100% and then freezes and I have to shut it down via Task Manager/end process.
Last week I updated to FF 12, and I also added the Web Developer 1.1.9 add-on. Now every time I open Firefox it tries to go to the "Web Developer installed" page, but the page never loads. Nothing else will load either.
I can't start in Safe Mode because of the problem with having to close it in Task Manager. I select "restart with add-ons disabled" and it just never opens. The Add-On manager page won't load, so I can't disable Web Developer to see if that's the problem.
I've uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled, and it still goes right back to the Web Developer page when I open the freshly installed copy.
Help, please!

Have you already tried clearing the browser cache, opening a blank tab, and trying to open some other website ?
* [[how to clear the cache]]
Instead of trying to open safe mode from within the User Interface menu have you tried alternative methods such as holding the shift key when you start Firefox. (After checking for running Firefox processes or plugincontainer and killing them if found )
* see [[safe mode]]
* [[firefox hangs]]
If using safemode does not help first of all try creating and using a new profile.
* [[Basic Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile]]_8-make-a-new-profile
If all the above fail then try a clean re-install of Firefox

Firefox closes right after startup, even when starting in safe mode
