Firefox does not start after auto-upgrade

Firefox worked well until it prompted me to restart after auto upgrade to 3.6.4. No window displayed although the process list showed firefox was running. Can not resolve the problem even I uninstall and download/re-install 3.6.4.
Windows version: windows 7 enterprise 64bits
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== upgraded to 3.6.4 ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; InfoPath.2)

Same issue for me. I also tried to uninstall the firefox, then delete the folder in program files and reinstalled 3.6.3, 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 tried all sort of combinations I can..
Now firefox is not opening for me in both normal or safemode... :-((

Firefox will not start after I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.04.

I was using Firefox without issue on Ubuntu 8.04. I then upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. Firefox would not start after upgrade. Message said it was already running!
I checked the System Monitor and saw it was "sleeping". I ended process. Firefox then would start, however..... I always have to go into System Monitor before I start Firefox to stop it from running (sleeping) even if I already just quit the program or after a fresh reboot.
I do not use a firewall or virus program.
My router has some sort of firewall hardware, and it is the same router I used with 8.04 with no problem.
What is going on? Why is the program sleeping when I try to start it. Why do I always get the message that it is already running (and I have to shut it down) before I can start it.
It is either a Ubuntu problem or a Firefox problem.
Sonny.

Satellite L100-113 does not start after memory upgrade

Hello.
Our integrator bring to our company memory modules KVR800D2S5, but notebook doesn't start :(
I read manual - this notebook supports 533 PC4200 memory modules.
But SO-DIMM 533MHz will be delivered only in a month...
What memory modules we can install to Toshiba L100-113?
Thank you.

Hi
I think the notebook does not power up due to a faulty or not fully compatible memory module.
Please check this 3rd party memory website:
[Memory for Toshiba Satellite L100-113|http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=22360&ft=m&st=3]
As you can see the Satellite L100-113 memory can be upgraded up to 2GB (2x 1GB) and you have to use the DDR2 533MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM

Firefox does not start after upgrade to v35

I updated my browser to v35.0.1 and it seems to go through the installation process, but I cannot open the browser. I see that the installation created shortcuts on the desktop and taskbar, but when I click on those, nothing happens. And I did not see any error messages during installation. I checked task manager to see if firefox process started, but it doesn't. I uninstalled / re-installed several times, but doesn't seem to help

Some work computers have locks against unknown programs. Check that
out.
Start your '''Computer''' in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try '''Safe''' web sites.

SAP does not start after Kernel Upgrade

Hi
We were carrying out the Kernel upgrade on our HPUX 11.23 and Oracle, R3 Quality System. From Kernel 196 to Kernel 221
After carrying taking a backup of the current exe folder we have copied the new exe ( after Uncar )
We restarted the system
We then started the Lsnrctl and it started successfully.
After login in as SIDadm and issuing the startsap command it gives the following error message in the startup log

Can anyone exeperienced such a problem. Would appricate if you could share on how you resolved the same.
Regards,
Milind Karoor

Hi Milind!
Just make sure that you have uncarred both OS dependent and independent files
And also make sure that you copy to the existing folder of RUN (make sure your folder name is RUN)after taking a backup.
As You copy it asks to overwrite, then you overwrite the existing ones.
By doing this some of the files which will not be present in the new Kernel will be present., sometimes this may be also one of the reason
As i have faced the same problem
Thanks,
KIRAN

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: 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" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* 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.

Firefox does not start for very long after clicking!!If another browser is opened Firefox opens after that.

Firefox does not open after clicking on the Firefox icon on my desktop. Occasionally it opens after a very long time and that also a number of pages open at the same time equal to the number of times hat I clicked the icon trying to open. If I open another browser like Google Chrome after trying to open Firefox then Firefox follows it to open much quicker after Google chrome opens.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item: 
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]] 
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''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 [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit 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 others with the same problem.
Thank you.

Firefox will not start, after reboot.

For a few months now Firefox will not start after I reboot my computer. In order to get it to start I click the exe then must go into task manager kill it, click the exe again, kill it again then, from there it will typically start, but sometimes it may take one or two more trys. When clicking the exe firefox will appear in the task manager under processes but will will start with ~7% CPU usage, then quickly drop to zero every time until it does actually open and start. I have ran a full system recovery and started anew after reinstalling mozilla several times failed to fix the problem. I run virus and spyware checks often and come up clean, and also run Chrome as a default browser.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Around the time 3.5 was released

Hello Tom.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5.

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5 on thin clients, also the internet proxy server usename is not accepted for java applets on webpages. However while using Firefox on the servers directly everthing works fine. This issue occurs on a server thin client environment, where the home directories are located on a 5 TB storage connected using SAS cables to the servers.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

TX2500Z touchscreen does not work after Windows7 upgrade from HP specific to S/N, etc on laptop.

My TX2500Z touchscreen does not work after I upgraded to Windows 7. I cannot find any support or drivers, etc. to fix. I bought Windows 7 directly from HP specific to my P/N and S/N on my TX2500Z. Any help? Thanks.

after 2,5 days (spending half a day within the apple shop as well with this problem) i have it all back on track.
i did a lot of different things: trying to remove and reinstall iPhoto; did a SL installation over the old SL I had on my HD; backing up all the data of course before and reformatting my HD and installing a new clean SL version on it + a new clean version of iLife9 with all the updates and than I migrate with migrate assistant all the data and setting with time machine back onto it, but all this didn't work, because it also migrated the error/bug through time machine with it.
so at the end i just installed a brand new, clean SL version on my hard drive, than I did the updates and put all my data, photos, docs, movies, mail, bookmarks, music, etc manual back into the system (drag and drop from my external HD, where i had an exact copy of my internal HD) and did all the settings again in all the different programs.
the only thing i used migrant assistant with time machine for was for the programs. it seems to work now all fine and i even got more free space on my HD, because some of the old stuff i always carried with me but i never used, i didn't take over.
basically everything is clean now. At least i hope and works fine. touch wood!

My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back? Can I somehow undo the update? Thanks

"UPAD lite?"
I expect that you mean some version of iPad.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

RAC does not start after trying to move storage

Hello,
We have a two nodes RAC Oracle 10g and ASM groups defined on one external storage.
RAC does not start after we reformated the storage to RAID 10.

You can see that cluster is not healty from cluvfy output.
