Firefox doesn't work properly

I have a problem with several different pages and while googling something. For example, when I open YouTube the page loads but I can't open any videos or anything else. I can click on them but nothing happens, but if I write the address of a video in address bar it opens normally and I can watch it. This happens on most of the pages I visit. Like Gmail or Facebook, I write my email address and password but nothing happens when I press login or Enter on keyboard.
When I google something I can't open some page I want in another tab by pressing the scroll wheel or by holding Ctrl and clicking on it and also nothing opens when I press the right mouse button on it.
I've tried updating Firefox, uninstalling it and then installing it again, and I can't update any plugins because when I click update, again, nothing happens...
I've installed Chrome and everything works fine there but I don't like Chrome I want to use Mozilla.

Try resetting Firefox. Instructions in this article - [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

Firefox from version 3.6 to 11 beta doesn't work properly with gmail

Gmail doesn't work properly with any version of firefox from 3.6 to 11. I have tried several newer versions of firefox and they ALL DO NOT WORK PROPERLY with GMAIL!!!!!! THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING & ANNOYING!! I can't click on any links or it just keeps saying LOADING when I try to delete a message or even go into the gmail settings.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

I am running Windows XP, SP3. I have tried to run Firefox 4 several times but it doesn't work properly. The main page comes up showing the logo, below that is the search box, and below that is another box with nothing in it.

Since the last update yesterday to firefox 4.0.1 my program "asus security protect manager" doesn't work properly. That means, that the saved keys from several websites not remembered for lock in.

Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
*[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If that works post back for further advice.
Next step, if safe mode did not work.
First: Try a clean install, (you have had a none standard version installed previously) that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
See
* this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
Second: try a New Profile
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
**[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

Why Hotmail Doesn't Work Properly Anymore???

Hotmail recently upgraded their look and as a result, it doesn't work properly via my iphone when I use Safari. It tells me to upgrade my web browser to Safari, IE or Firefox, however my iphone has the newest upgrade available...........so what is the fix?
In short, my hotmail doesn't work properly (Doesn't display emails in the preview pane) so I can't check emails essentially.

See the post abut this that you posted in a few minutes ago. Allan has answered the question.

Safari doesn't work properly with Ebay

Safari doesn't work properly when listing items on Ebay. Fix it.

Hi Occo
I would rather Apple updates Safari
Then tell Apple, this a user to user forum, although I don't think Apple will update just for your problem as hardly anybody is experiencing the same issue, just a couple on this troubleshooting forum.
this IS NOT A EBAY PROBLEM
Please don't use all caps, it is considered shouting. No this may well not be an ebay problem, but it is not a Safari issue either, it is an issue on your Safari and on your computer. Everyone I know has no trouble with ebay at all. In fact Safari 4.0.4 has made it even faster to log in and browse, buy etc.
id rather apple fixed their software
Again, tell Apple, not us, through the Apple feedback page or file a bug report. They will update Safari if and when they decide, but it will not be to fix what is not broken.
Im sure there would be similiar sites that arent compatible with safari
I agree, as stated before that some sites are just lazy in updating their coding, usually not the high traffic sites though. Other sites only update their code for Windows IE and forget the rest of the world. Firefox, Opera, Camino etc. also can't access some sites.
So in conclusion, try Safari and OSX maintenance and if that fails, then try an archive and install. Because there is nothing wrong with Safari 4.0.4 and ebay, or else this forum would be inundated with thousands upon thousands of users complaining and that is not the case.
Cheers and Good Luck

Google News doesn't work properly with Safari 5.1.4

Has anyone else noticed that Google News doesn't work properly with Safari 5.1.4?

Thank you for your response. The more I use 5.1.4 the more problems I am seeing. There are problems with images and layout. I would like to back up to 5.1.3 but the system won't let me. At present I a looking for a solution, or I might just start using Firefox.

My palm m105's touch screen doesn't work properly after a sync.

I dug out my old m105, put new batteries in and start it. On first launch it auto runs the alignment tool, and after touching all the points it goes to the main screen and works fine. No problem till here.
Now, I plug it into my old computer which still has the palm software with my apps, and I run the sync operation (from the palm device sync manager, cause I lost my cradle and I'm connected via the serial cable), and it syncs fine BUT, here comes the problem, when it finishes the sync (successfully) the touch screen is all misaligned. I can't go back to the home screen or do anything useful.

When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

Hmm, that is very strange. I agree with MichelB that it's probably best just to get the PDF, but you can try going to your username>library>preferences and deleting:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the Saved Application States folder and delete anything pertaining to PSE.
Repair permissions and see if that does it.

My Safari doesn't work properly after installing Lion. Don't like it, how can I uninstall? (Cloud not worth it)?

I upgraded ti Lion 10.7.2 for icloud but it's causing other problems with my mac. My Safari doesn't work properly anymore. Wishing I didn't upgrade, anyone know how to fix this or do i just have to uninstall? Thanks,

Wipe the drive clean and install Snow Leopard from your install disk.
Might be less work fixing Safari. Try Resetting Safari.

- Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..

What can I do if my CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?

QuestionWhat can I do when if my laptop CD or DVD drive doesn't work properly in Windows 8?
AnswerNote: For help with this issue in Windows 7, please see this article.
To get your CD or DVD drive working correctly, try these suggestions in the order listed.
Reinstall the Driver
Hold the Windows key and press the 'x' key to open a menu in the lower-left. In this menu, select "Device Manager." Expand "DVD/CD-ROM drives." Right-click the entry for the CD/DVD drive nested under "DVD/CD-ROM drives," then select "Uninstall." Finally, restart the computer. The computer will reinstall the drivers for the drive.
Power Cycle
Even when your laptop is off and unplugged, residual power can still be held in some components. While this is normal, clearing it can help with some hardware problems. Perform these steps to complete what’s called a power cycle.
Ensure the laptop is turned off.
Unplug the laptop's AC power cable.
Unplug all wires and peripherals. This includes CDs, DVDs, USB sticks, mice, printers, and any other accessories.
Remove the battery (if the model has a removable battery). If the model does not have a removable battery, check your user's guide to determine if you have a pinhole reset on the bottom. If you do, press this.
Hold down the power button for thirty seconds.
Reattach the battery if removed.
Connect the AC adaptor to the power socket that was confirmed to be working in the first step.
Connect the other end of the AC adaptor to your computer.
Start the computer and test the drive
Microsoft Fix-it
Your computer may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms:
Your CD or DVD drive no longer appears in Windows
Your CD or DVD drive does not read or write and is shown as disabled
The media in your CD or DVD drive cannot be read
The media cannot be written to a CD or DVD inserted into the drive
You receive an error message about your CD or DVD drive
If any of these symptoms apply to your computer, use Microsoft Fix-it troubleshooter available here.
System Restore
Try using System Restore to restore to the most restore point from before the problem arose.
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
System Recovery
If the System Restore doesn't solve the issue, you could try a System Reset. Resetting your laptop to its original, out-of-the-box state is a great way to eliminate software as a possible cause of the problem. Note that doing a system reset will return the laptop to its default conditions, completely wiping your data. Information on how to perform a system recovery can be found in your user's guide.
For more information on performing a recovery, see the following article:
How To: Understanding System Restore, Refresh, Reset, and, Recovery options in Windows 8 + Video
Contact Customer Support
If the drive doesn't work after performing a recovery, it may be due to hardware failure. Please call customer support or seek servicing.

See this Microsoft article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060/en-us For ways to fix manually

Satellite Pro L20 doesn't work properly with USB Fast Track audio i.f.

Hello!
I have used my Fast Track USB on new Toshiba Satellite L40 and I never had problems with it. I could set low latency and I did few songs with it.
Yesterday I bought another notebook, thinking of home recording studio. It's used Toshiba Satellite Pro L20. It doesn't work properly with my interface. When I listen music on Winamp or do anything on Fruity Loops I hear loud clicks, pops, noises. They introduce samples, or they appear during playback or after a sample is stopped.
I noticed, drivers for Satellite Pro L20 are a problem. Its not supported by Toshiba anymore?! The only drivers for chipset are very old and you can download em only from Toshiba website. The chipset is ATI Xpress 200M. Its drivers are with graphic card. Recently I noticed you can download "ATI Catalyst Legacy Display Driver for Windows XP - Motherboard/IGP Drivers 9.11" and CRACK IT to make it possible to install on mobile unit such as L20. Yep its funny but its impossible to do otherwise!
things I have tried and they still not help:
# drivers replacement, original were released in 2004. I installed recent version.
# driver settings, low latency, high latency
# asio and different settings
# pluging the interface to another usb socket.
# trying what happens when I use battery and when I use adapter
# updated bios
# turned off onboard units such as wifi card, sound card
# checked IRQ list
pops still appear.
my config:
Toshiba Satellite Pro L20
Win XP Home SP3
Celeron M 1,5GHz
896Mb ram
M-Audio Fast Track USB, drivers: 6.0.2
Kind regards

Thanks for answer. I still have L40 but I try to run my homerecording on L20. The L40 is now used by whole my family. It's possible to swap them but there's a problem - L20 has Norway keyboard and I'm the only person at home who doesn't often look down while typing. In Poland, we use standard ms keyboard. I'd buy special stickers, it's about only to make special chars get back to their places.
I installed Windows on this computer end set it to best performance possible.
Since I created this thread, guys from M-Audio support tried to solve my problem - nothing helped. I think potential solutions are exhausted.

Hp laserjet P1006 doesn't work properly

my Hp laserjet P1006 doesn't work properly on my windows 7(64-bit) and whenever I try to print a page the orange light just flashes and then the green light flashes and then it doesn't print at all.I've tryed everyway including reinstalling the software or even turning it off and then turning it on.Pleaseeeee.............help!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello
I understand you are no longer able to print with the P1006 on Win8.1.
Did you uninstall the P1006 first?
If not uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
Both drivers are the same if you look at the version on the website and should still work with the Win8.1.
If you need more assistance just let me know.
