Firefox doesn't open it's browser, even if I re-boot. Do I need to re-install? Or is Firefox not working right today (2/8/11)?
The question is pretty self-explainitory, but just to be clear. I've tried the short-cut, the menu-bar, and in the file of my computer, just trying to get it open to the brower. I was just wondering if I have a virus on my computer, need to re-install, or just that Firefox decided not to work today (2/8/11). If you can answer this that would be wonderful.
Thanks ~Friday

Why does Firefox not work here in China anymore, since January of 2015?
I have used Firefox for years, as the fastest and most reliable browser for me, esp in China... not anymore! Last month (unknown to me) a hijacker called Vosteran took over my Firefox browser. I finally realized it and got it cleaned up using Malwarebytes anti-malware, and downloaded a new Firefox... now SAME problem exists, even with Vosteran removed!
Firefox will not allow me into ANY normal sites, saying they don't have the proper security code. This includes my Yahoo front page, email account, ESPN and other common sites that are certainly NOT dangerous. So, WHY does Firefox not work anymore? It is useless to me here in China the way it works now.hello rickinchina, first please make sure that the '''date, time & timezone''' are set correctly on your system and that firefox is set to directly connect to the internet (that's the "'''no proxy'''" setting in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > network > connection - settings...'').
if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
* what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page (but don't do it for real) and inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
* which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
please report back with those two pieces of information. thank you! -

Waiting for Tidbits and Elector to grace my post with there constant negativity and start a war of words as usual... since they love stirring the pot and angering the Windows Phone Community every time they reply to posts. I just can't believe they spend that much time here on the forums replying if they are not a paid Verizon employee or a paid basher from a competing platform.

Well I found nothing wrong in your post. So why even make a statement like the quote I included?
Once more I am a retired government employee. So I have the time to post. Or has my rights been taken away to voice an opinion?
Your posts was great you were not whining about your rights to file complaints to the FCC or FTC etc. One of the best I have read.
And I am not trying to sway you from your phone choice. If you looked at my avitar it shows apple iphones. But I use and have used androids and not Windows phones.
However your numbers of windows phone users all leaving over the issue is miniscule in the number of users of Android and iOS devices.
I have written many times I wish all the devices get updated like iOS devices do. But at present that is not happening
No bashing, no adversarial post just a little common sense is all I use.
And again your post was great.
Good Luck -

HT2523 Google search in the right-click menu doesn't open in default browser
Hi ...,
Please share any suggestion that might help solve this issue.
Thank you in advance!!
KuberaOh, wow that makes sense! Thank you for your reply and tips!!
The link you gave is for Lion, but ok -- still props/kudos!!!
I found this Chrome extension:
"Highlight to Search"
allows you search keywords by highlighting instead of typing them into a search box
Google Highlight to Search is a browser extension that helps you search keywords easily. After you highlight keywords within a web page, you'll see magnifying-glass icon appear below the highlighted keywords. By either clicking on the icon or the keywords itself, search-box with Autocomplete enabled appears for you to search quickly and easily. By installing this extension, you agree to these terms: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/intl/en/gallery_tos.html This extension uses Google Search, and the data related to the query will be handled as described in Google's privacy policy: http://www.google.com/intl/en/privacypolicy.html

Shockwave 10 on Firefox Not Working
After receiving a message from Adobe Update that there was a
new version of Shockwave, I followed the link, but Firefox failed
to automatically install the plugin. So I tried manual
installation, but when I ran the executable, it just said
"Congratulations! You have successfully installed the Shockwave
Player" without even letting me select the browser I wanted to
install for. No page or confirmation movie popped up. So I went
back to the automatic installation page to see if it had worked,
but it says I need to click on the IE info bar; I am using Firefox,
not IE, and there is no bar or message at all. Shockwave does show
up in my Add/Remove Programs list and np32dsw.dll is in my Firefox
plugins folder, but it still does not work, and it seems that it
doesn't support Firefox, because it thinks that I am using IE. I
only found one site with a fix, but it was removed for legal
reasons. Is there a way to get Shockwave 10 to work with
Firefox?All your internal stuff like scripts etc should be relative referenced. The issue does occur in IE it just behaves a bit differently Greg.
Cross domain is not a browser thing but a web thing.
Certificates will not validate when you have this sort of thing occur.
If your using 3rd party services like google fonts you should look to use // instead of http:// in front of the URL. -
Hi,
I have recently downloaded mozilla firefox, and installed this as per your website. However, once installed the shortcut for mozilla, is not working. Instead of showing the orange fox/blue symbol, the symbol looks like a square box with a green background and a very miniture list of what would usually pop up when you right click on something. If you double click on the program (too open and use it), an error message comes up and says "Missing Shortcut: Windows is searching for firefox.exe. To locate the file yourself, click Browse." There then is the browse... and cancel button. So in the end firefox doesn't actually work, can you help with this? I have tried to re-download/re-install it however this has not fixed the problem.Make sure you keep an eye on the Help | Check For Updates menu. The latest version is 3.6.16 downloadable from [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Firefox: Older Versions] but it may be updated from time to time. You always get the choice of whether you want to update to v4.0 or not, so don't be afraid of checking.

I was having issues with Firefox opening. I opened my Safari browser to troubleshoot and after looking for solutions to Firefox not opening, I opened the firefox profile manager. The directions instructed me to create a new profile and then delete my old one (and save old files). I did that and then upon restarting firefox all my bookmarks, history, passwords etc. were gone. When I looked at the folders in my profile file, they all had creation dates of only a few minutes prior. Did I lose it all? I followed the instructions, I don't understand where all my information went.
Did you use the Profile Manager or did you use reset to create that new profile?
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
A reset tries to import some data from the old profile and then moves the profile to the desktop, but if you use the Profile Manager then you need to copy that data yourself to the new profile.
If you've deleted the old profile before making sure that your data has been recovered then you've lost that personal data.

New firefox not working well at all!
Since this new version Firefox takes an excessive amount of time to start up, and seems to crash all the time. Trying to go to my bank every time tried to input, user name etc screen would fade and would get message "Firefox not responding". Other things noted does not open my home page when I start, this just started to happen today. Was not opening my home page when I opened another tab, that was from install, Just does not work for me would like to keep using but if I cant even go to my bank then there is no point.
If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
* see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers
'''https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration'''
* disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
'''https://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround'''
* disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Firefox not working with gmail
i tried to load gmail, but the standard view does not load, only the basic html version.
whereas it loads perfectly internet explorer 9 or firefox v4.
tried reinstalling, clearing cookies etc.. nothing changed.
even tried "network.http.spdy.enabled" to false as given on http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/928888#answer-339203 but nothing happened.
got error:
with gmail-
Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version. Upgrade to a modern browser, such as Google Chrome.

has gmail stopped supporting firefox new versions? i dont want to switch to chrome? wat can i do?
am using windows xp sp3This is silly (and stupid). Why should I have to go to IE anything? Firefox worked fine with gmail until I went to this new version (16), I went to the beta version and gmail still did not work. I thought you guys were supposed to be unbiased? I should be able to use one program for my mail and my internet and not lose any of my cookies or services. I went to you guys because I was able to use all the services without any problems, now need two services so I can use my mail (no, I am not changing mail services...I like gmail and have a very set and established email address. It would cause a lot of problems trying to get my friends to memorize a new one...we like the one I have now).
It should not be THAT DIFFICULT to allow access to gmail. Work with each other, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish. Thank you, NukeGeek -
Firefox Not Working on Some Websites (Ex: Hotmail, GMX, WoWhead)
Whenever I log into Hotmail, I am unable to open any of my e-mails. When I go to GMX, the page just loads indefinitely. When I search for something on WoWHead, I can't see anything under the "Contribution" or "Related" fields.
It appears that some sort of plug-in is not working correctly, I am assuming JavaScript. I completely uninstalled both firefox and Java, then reinstalled them. It did not correct the problem. I am also having these problems with IE.When I reinstalled, I tried it without AddOns. I've also ran Firefox in safemode, along with Internet Explorer. It still didn't work.
Hotmail and GMX Mail work with Internet Explorer, except for that I am experiencing the same problems with both Firefox and IE.
