Firefox doesnt work
firefox stop opening, meaning i click on the firefox icon on my desktop and it does not open.
Can you associate this problem with any recent changes, such as updating Firefox or other programs?
Have you shut down and restarted Windows since this problem began?
Could you try starting Firefox in its Safe Mode? Hold down the Shift key when double-clicking the Firefox icon.
If all goes well, you will get a small dialog. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).

Ok I recently upgraded to firefox 5.0, and then when I went to a website that uses windows media player to watch videos and news reports, it said I needed to download the windows media player plug in for firefox. And yet I had already done that in the past. So it directs me to the plug in for windows media player 11, I download and install and it doesnt work. Website repeats the same message, you need to download plug in. It was working fine with firefox 4.0! I use the OS Windows 7, 64bit. Any help please?
Yes I did, at first it identified it as already there, so it gave the option of repairing it, etc, so I uninstalled the Windows Media Player, then Installed it again, and it still doesn't seem to work! I have the same problem with several other plug ins, in the add ons and plug in section of Mozilla tools, I see that say, "incompatible with firefox 5.0" but as days go by those add-ons, that are built by those other websites seem to be repairing it, but I wanted to know for something as important as windows media player plug in, am I the only one getting this problem? :/

You can use the NoSquint extension to set font size (text/page zoom) and text color on web pages.

Firefox doesnt work when LAN cable connected but does with wireless
When connected to the LAN (provided by a cable company) I get server not found messages but woeks okay when using a wireless connection. I have cleared recent history = cache and cookies, rest proxy server to no proxy and put firefox.exe into my firewall exceptions and still no go. I am borrowing the wireless connection, my connection is through the cable.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== within the last 24 hoursHello.
When using a LAN cable, can you connect to the internet using other software (such as download managers, other browsers, IM clients, update software...)? -
I have upgraded to the latest firefox v7.0.1 for windows, when i click on its icon it doesnt open up? I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but nothing happend it still doesnt work?
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.
<u>First: Try a clean install, <sub>(you have had a none standard version installed previously)</sub></u><br /> 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
<u>Second: try a New Profile</u>
*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 -
ive upgrade the firefox and now doesnt work very good. how can i use the older one version? Thanks
Firefox doesn't work very well in what sense ?? Can you explain a bit more about the problems you are facing in using Firefox ??
Might not be related to your problem but some of your Plugins are out-dated

Firefox doesnt seem to work with wifi
For some reason firefox doesnt load any pages. I just got the new beta and Im on wifi on my phone. I have the EVO. So far its been a dud and I just downloaded firefox for the first time on it.
Actually I was wrong its not just WiFi but the network too. For some reason it doesn't navigate at all. It seems there is no data being transmitted when I put in any address

Straming video doesnt work.
Streaming video doesnt work. Video in Skype is OK. Play locally stored video OK in MediaPlayer as well as iTunes. Downloaded Adobe Flash and Shockwave. Still no steraming after restart of PC.
Firefox is upgraded.
Windows XP homeHi,
Can you please cross check the following :
1. The rtmp URL is edited accordingly to point to the correct FMS server instead of localhost etc.
2. The above code snippet should be bundled as an AIR app and published for iOS.
If you are using HTTP instead of RTMP, you need to follow HLS streaming for iOS which makes use of the HTML5 video tags instead of any flash/AIR based applications. Please let us know if you are looking for this.
Thank you ! -
In-browser pdf form doesnt work and look weird
On following page I have a pdf form and it doesnt work and it looks weird(logo changed color, button missing, heading looks weird):
http://www.palomat.dk/Files/Billeder/palomat/formular/Bestilling_PALOMATinlinemappe_DK.pdf
I've have checked and its not just this one pdf form, its all pdf forms that behave strange.
It is something that has started to happend recently and it works fine in both IE and Chrome.
I can see that the design of the pdf viewer has changed, so I am thinking it could have something to do with the fact, that there has been some sort of update of the pdf viewer in firefox or something??Agree. This is a major screw up on Firefox part. Because of this, we switched again to IE. This is the worse thing Firefox could do for themselves and their users.

I have an htc evo shift 4g phone but i like to use the keyboard and the fn but it doesnt work
the fn button means that its the number button on the keyboard but it doesnt work on firefox beta mobile
Yes, I can confirm this problem in the released version. I don't know why apps would handle the hardware keyboard directly; seems Firefox Mobile should just receive the characters from the device. ??
