Firefox doesn't work right under my normal login account, but is fine under another account. How do I clear my account settings in my normal account?

Shortly after installing FF4.0, it rendered a local (on my hard drive) website incorrectly. One page, with frames, has more than 1000 list entries each containing a link to another page. The links suddenly become plain text after a few hundred lines of rendered text. Other browsers render the page correctly, as FF did earlier as well.
Then FF began to crash. When I googled "firefox crashes" it crashed as I clicked the mozilla site link provided by google.
I followed various trouble-shooting pages on the mozilla site, but could not isolate the problem to any extension or plug-in. The problems persisted even with no plugins and no extensions. I backed off to FF3.6.12 and got the same problems. I logged into a different account and the problems disappeared.
I clearly need to completely uninstall FF in my main login account and reinstall it but I haven't been able to find all the files that need to be trashed.
What do I do?
best,
Lou

Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
Note:   If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help). 
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.

  • Flash doesn't work right under IE7 !

    For some reason, the Flash's ActionScript command
    ExternalInterface.call("window.location.href.toString") to get the
    URL of the current active page doesn't work under Internet Explorer
    7. (Adding an id doesn't seam to do the trick... although i am not
    sure what value to give to this id) See code ...
    I posted my problem in the flash forum but nobody answered...
    Maybe someone here had the problem and was able to find some work
    around !
    I created a simple swf file with a simple actionscript on the
    first frame to demonstrate the problem. Using the html code i also
    paste below, you can reproduce the problem in less than 1 min.
    Thanks for any help !

  • When trying to read emails on hotmail on firefox, the "back" button on my mouse doesn't work right. It works fine if I use internet explorer. This started about three days ago.

    Also doesn't work right when I try to click on the inbox. I sometimes just get a blank screen. Seems to work fine on every other site except Hotmail.

    Nothing changed after clearing cashe and cookies and restarting in safe mode.

  • I upgraded to Mountain Lion and now Firefox doesn't work, also it asked to install Java to run Adobe Illustrator

    I just upgraded my iMac from OS 10.7.5 to 10.8.3. Firefox was my default browser and has all my bookmarks. Now when I try to load a page, the content is all jumbled and doesn't display correctly. I just updated Firefox to 20.0 but it still doesn't work right.
    Also, the first time after upgrading, Adobe Illustrator wouldn't start unless I installed Java. Isn't that the program that should be disabled because of security issues? Or has that been resolved?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I think I figured out Firefox, I went under Help > Troubleshooting Information > Reset Firefox.
    I only have one account on my computer. Honestly I don't even really know how multiple accounts work. I've never played around with it. I already allowed Java - should I disable it?

  • Printing (or print preview) a Pie Flash Chart in Firefox doesn't work

    Are you printing from the Flash right-click menu or through Firefox? I don't think Firefox prints Flash regions when you print the entire page.

  • 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.

  • Palatino superscript doesn't work right

    Palatino is my favorite font. But since installing Mavericks, superscripting doesn't work right in Microsoft Word. When Palatino type that is 14 points or smaller is superscripted, instead of being reduced a couple of points it is made extremely tiny. Also, instead of being raised to the top of the line, it appears in the middle (vertically) of the line. Since I use endnotes a lot, this effectively destroys the Palatino font for me.
    According to Get Info, this particular font is Copyright © 1991-99, 2006 Apple Computer, Inc. Copyright © 1991-92 Type Solutions, Inc., so I've had it for a long time. Is there an updated version that will fix this problem? I don't have this problem in other programs, including PowerPoint. I use Office 2011.
    Here is an enlarged image of the superscript (st):
    <img src="http://ti.org/images/Superscript.png">

    I think folks are looking for a solution.
    And I have given one. The Palatino font supplied with Mavericks is no good. The only fix is to replace it with an older version. If you don't have one, you can't fix it.
    Do you agree that Restore Standard Fonts...works ... Yes? No?
    No. That option only attempts to remove fonts from the System and root Library folders that are included with OS X. It doesn't give you an option to restore OS X supplied fonts that are missing.
    I have to presume you installed Mavericks over Mountain Lion. In Mavericks, Palatino is installed to the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder. In ML, that same (correctly working) font is installed to the /Library/Fonts/ folder.
    Presuming this scenario is correct, the working version of Palatino in the /Library/Fonts/ folder was already active. When resolving conflicts in Font Book, the active font is always the one left active. Which would mean it removed the broken, Mavericks installed version.
    As noted above, I fully tested and have proven the Mavericks version of Palatino is bad. I have multiple versions of this font. They are from:
    OS 9
    MS Office 2011
    Lion
    Mountain Lion
    Mavericks
    Adobe Type 1 PostScript
    Adobe OpenType PostScript
    I used Suitcase Fusion to activate one version at a time. Testing in Word, InDesign and other apps, they all behaved as expected until using the Mavericks supplied version.

  • DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

    I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac.  It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows.  However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right.  I have four text menus.  In the DVD player, none of those are navigable.  Arrowing up or down doesn't work.  You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display.  Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work?  I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
    Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd.  They're using Movie Maker.  It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec.  Any ideas on that?

    The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS).  If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
    You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation.  (In button routing, each button points to another.)  Where does it break down?
    On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse?  In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working.  Does the computer "remote" option work?  If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
    If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk.  Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview?  Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder.  (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

  • Media player doesn't work right , code# cood1197

    Why won't any of my music play on windows media player and rip any music to my ipod  recovered august since then player  doesn't work right now. product bv545aa#aba  serial# 4ce1031lws ,model # p6754y & getting code # cood1197 & are there any free updates for player ?  thank you.

    I haven't had a problem with either.  I have switched to using MixZing as my player because it also allows me to work with the contents of my SD card and has a nice equalizer function that really works well with a quality pair of headphones or when plugged into my home stereo.  It's available on the Marketplace.
    I do know that with Youtube, I get much less buffering if I pull videos through the WiFi function when attached to my home network.
