Firefox crashes on my desktop, how can I get on my internet??

I have tried safe mode and everything else. Can't do much without interenet access. Can I delete firefox and get on my computer??

Hi,
You can try to create a [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles new profile] and start Firefox in that. It would also be helpful if you could post the details of the operating system version and the security software installed.

  • My add-ons disappeared from my toolbar when I downloaded Firefox 17 for AOL. How can I get them back on my toolbar?

    I can find all of my add-ons when I click on the Firefox icon on the upper left of my screen and click on add-ons, but they no longer appear on my toolbar where I can click on them and use them with the file I'm working in. They are useless to me now. I disabled the AOL toolbar for one session and the add-ons didn't show up. When I click on the edit buttion on the AOL toolbar, I don't see where I can add the Firefox add-ons. How can I get them back onto my toolbar?

  • I downloaded Day One on my Mac desktop - how can I get it to show

    I have downloaded the app Day One on my Mac dekstop - how can i get it to show on my Macbook Air?
    On the icloud on my Macbook Air?  When I open Icloud on both devices the only icons I have are  mail, contact, calendar, notes, reminders, fine my imac and iwork.  I have no icon for apps or photos.

    Choose Home from the Finder’s Go menu. If you see it there, drag it to the right of the Dock’s dividing line. If not, make a new folder and name it Downloads.

  • Firefox crashes on start up how do I get help when I can't even load it

    Please can someone help me I am running Mozilla Firefox 7 but have been unable to even get to start it up. Every time I try I get a crash report box pop up but it doesn't tell me anything, it doesn't even have a crash ID. I can't even get it to load in safe mode and I can't even get the Firefox location bar up to submit anything about my crash so I am at a loss at what to try next. I have uninstalled then re-installed but to no avail, please can somebody help me !!?. If you need me to tell you anything else please don't hesitate to ask.

    Since a few days we have a lot of crashes with [http://www.trusteer.com/product/trusteer-rapport Trusteer Rapport]. If you have this program, try to disable it and see if that stops the crashing.<br>
    You can stop Rapport using Start Menu > Programs > Trusteer Rapport > Stop Rapport<br>
    You can ask their helpdesk when an updated version of their product will be made available or, if you don't need this software, uninstall it.<br>
    http://www.trusteer.com/support/en/report-problem<br>
    If you do not have Rapport, then we need to have a crash report ID. When you send Mozilla a crash report it just puts it in a giant database. We have no way of looking it up without the Report ID. I have no idea what is wrong without looking up the crash report. Please get the Report ID of your latest crash report.<br>

  • When I go to Firefox the support screen appears, how can I get rid of it?

    I log into Firefox and this mozilla support page appears. One day it wasn't there but now it is and I want it gone, but I can't find any thing on the screen showing me what to do to get rid of it. It just shows Firefox in upper Left corner.

    You can check the home page setting:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
    Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

  • How can i get a refined internet search, only show words that are used in search request

    Can i get a refined search. For example, show only the words that have been entered in the searchbar

    Hi,
    You can try putting the word or phrase inside double quotes (" "). I think this would work in most search engines.

  • How can I get back my internet explorer which has been removed when I have downloaded Mozilla Firefox?

    I want to download Mozilla Firefox as an optional browser as I can only access a website for work through this browser. However, when I downloaded MF, even though I tick that I do not want it as my default browser or homepage, it downloads, but has removed my Internet Explorer connection. This has happened a couple of times now and is very frustrating. I don't know how to get my IE back and keep the option of MF available. MF seems to automatically delete/remove IE when it is downloaded. I am using Windows 8. I would appreciate help and advice to correct this situation. Many thanks.

    Hi, Philipp,
    Thank you very much for your prompt reply and support. The IE icon disappeared immediately after I downloaded MF. I tried to download IE again but without success. In the end all my icons on my start page disappeared, although I do not think this was to do with MF. I had to resort to restoring my lap top to factory settings for the umpteenth time and I have now got IE back but no MF. I will keep your advice and will try again when I am feeling brave enough and have sufficient time to try and download MF again. I am not confident with technical problems and greatly appreciate your help and support.
    Kind regards, K.

  • I NOT download mail on laptop (but leave it for dl to my desktop); how can I get the lapt to recog what it already in its inbox and not add new copies each time

    I use a small Acer laptop on trips. I read email on it, but leave the mail on the server (POP acct at my university) for download at home onto my desktop. My problem is that the laptop does not recognize what it has already copied to my inbox, and so adds a new copy of all mail (that is on server) each time I "get" my mail. Is there some way that I can get it to only "get" what mail it does not already have ?

    try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
    One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

  • I only want one desktop.How can I get rid of a 2nd desktop?

    I have desktops to choose from. I could see where this mught be handy, but riight now I find it downright annoying to suddenly switch desktops because I swiped or did something else to make i switch.
    I cannot find a setting for multiple desktops.

    * Enter Mission Control (You can do this by pressing a key, e.g., F3 in recent MBPs.  See System Preferences, Mission Control for the current keyboard shortcuts.) 
    * You should see the available desktops as little windows along the top of the screen.
    * Hover your cursor over the one you want to delete (hover, not click) until a little x appears.
    * Click the x.

  • Someone was playing on my computer and I don't see the "Do you want Firefox to Remember" bar. How can I get it back so I don't have to remember sign-in information?

    I'm thinking that there is just a simple correction that I need to make.
    Here's what I don't see (what follows if from memory and is not exact).
    Do you want Firefox to Remember?
    This is followed by "always for this site", "never" or "not now"
    I don't ever get that bar anymore AND those sites that I used to be able to automatically get into without entering userid and password, I now have to use my userid and password.
    Can you help?

    * Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
    * You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    * To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    * Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"

  • I need to install 3.6 Firefox to work with SiteBuilder, how can I get a Download for MAC?

    Please send me a link to download the MAC 3.6 version of Firefox. Register.com told me it is the only way to solve a compatibility issue with their ancient SiteBuilder software. I'm stuck until I get it. Thank you

    Here [http://ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.6/mac/ Mozilla releases] you can download firefox 3.6. The setup is in your language folder. Before you install this version i must tell you that is dangerous to install a old version of firefox for your security when you surf the net.

  • With the last upgrades my Firefox has lost all sound, how can I get it Back?.

    I Upgraded to OpenSUSE 13.1 a few months ago. Firefox lost the ability to give me sound with Utube video's. I tried the Tumbleweed upgrade system, but it was not to my liking. So I have done a fresh install from DVD, and most of what I want is working well. Firefox is not playing sounds, where do I look to see what is missing?
    Francis Brighton

    Are other applications able to play sounds? If so, are some things able to produce sound in firefox but not others? For instance, playing a youtube video versus playing an mp3 (which would be easy to test by providing a file:// link to a mp3 on your hd) versus playing a wav or ogg file.
    If firefox is simply unable to play any of these things at all, you may be missing a vital plugin. If it is able to play videos for you but not the associated audio, try starting firefox from a terminal and check to see if there is any output to the terminal (on startup or when playing a audio/video file) that might be relevant.
    If nothing above seems to shed any light on things, you may also want to try running ldd on it as well (in a terminal, try typing ldd $(which firefox) and look for missing libraries).
