Firefox no longer works on my laptop and I've used it for year.

As stated above, I have been using Firefox for many, many years and it just stopped working about 3 or 4 weeks ago. It can't load any pages.

Although I don't have this problem, will offer my 2 cents. Can't see how a bug would cause this but I'm guessing that you might be running an older version of FF which is no longer supported. Is that the case in your situation? I use 3.6.23.

  • Update to Firefox 4 has frozen. Computer still indicates CPU and memory usuage but it never finishes. Previous Firefox no longer works. Upon restart and clicking Firefox, updater just goes into same frozen state. Updater appears to be defective.

    CPU usuage is at 13%, memory for Firefox updater is 28,348K. Have tried shutting down and restarting. Everything looks normal except that the start menu shows Firefox twice. At this point there is no CPU usuage and Firefox is not running. Clicking on Firefox seems to start up the updater (same CPU and memory as during original update), but there is no window. Only taskmanager indicates anything is running. The other Firefox icon in the start menu has no effect other than to list Firefox twice in the taskmanager, but the new one has no CPU or memory.

    Ive downgraded from FF4 to 3.6 at this point. The CPU usage is out of control on OS X.

  • Cap loc doesn´t work or light up and when I use shift for cap, it sounds like a typewriter typing

    I have a 2011 model and am running Lion.  My cap lock does not work or light.  When I use he shift to cap a letter, it makes a sound like a typewriter, wierd.  Also when I depress the shift, the symbols on top of the numbers are not as designated.  In order the get the @ sign, I have to depress the option key for it to appear.  The other symbols do not appear correct when I am typing when I depress the shift.  I have to hunt for what key will give me the correct symbol  Very Aggraviating.  I hope I have made myself clear.  I am 70 and not to literate on comps and then an APPLE.  That was my dream and I got but now am having this problem.....  Could anyone please help me.  If you need more info, please let me know as I don´t always make myself clear, so says my husband.

    Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Modifier Keys. It should look like this:
    If not, press :Restore Defaults".
    With regards to the sound of typewriter, if it's not an actual mechanical sound, by which I mean it's a computer generated sound, you might have installed some application like Typewriter Sound:

    Is that the case? Removing it should solve the problem.

  • Firefox no longer working with Multibox

    http://www.liamsmart.co.uk/Downloads/multiBox/ used to work with Firefox. I last tested it successfully about September 2012, with whatever the current version of Firefox was.
    I tested it tonight, with 21.0 and it was not working.
    It works with current versions of IE and Opera.
    I reinstalled Firefox version 20.0 and that does not work either.
    I had Firefox version 12.0 on a laptop and it was working tonight.
    I upgraded the laptop version to 21.0 and it no longer works.

  • Every time I TRY to start firefox 18-19 I get an error message : Firefox has stopped working - close the program and check online for a solution - or - close ..

    Every time I TRY to start firefox 18-19 I get an error message : "Firefox has stopped working" - "close the program and check online for a solution" - or - "close the program" this happens TWICE every time I try to start firefox. Eventually after a random number of tries firefox will start normaly. I am useing firefox 19.0.2 now bit I belive it started when I upgraded to firefox 18 but am not sure, it might have been when I upgraded to firefox 19 ... but it has been happening for a very long time and I cannot find any helpfule solutions online.
    I have tried a Clean reinstall but it did not help.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''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 [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the 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 other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • APPLE DOCKING STATION NO LONGER WORKS WITH TOUCH 3G and 4G after ios 4.2.1

    APPLE DOCKING STATION NO LONGER WORKS WITH TOUCH 3G and 4G after ios 4.2.1 update.
    I have both of these touches. I updated both 3g and 4g to ios 4.2.1 and poof...no docking station support other than charging, no audio and no remote function. My av/cable works with the tv, and the headphone jack still outputs audio, just no auido through the Apple dock and hte remote is dead. I purchased the dock from the apple store last year and it was working with both ipod 3g and 4g grrrrr...
    Is Apple now in the bug trade business?, trade one for another....
    Anyone else have this problem?

    My iPod Touch 3G running 4.2.1 works fine with the Apple docking station.
    Perhaps you have a loose cable somewhere and/or a dead battery in your controller?

  • I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and have found that some of my software no longer works, notably Image Browser and also the Epson Scanner Perfection 3490 software. Is there a 'patch' or way to allow me to use these programmes especially the scanner.

    I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and have found that some of my software no longer works, notably Image Browser and also the Epson Scanner Perfection 3490 software. Is there a 'patch' or way to allow me to use these programmes especially the scanner.

    Apple discontinued support for PowerPC apps with Lion, I think, so you're out of luck there. No patch coming, unfortunately. Best to upgrade whatever old applications you have or, since it seems like you're using some relatively old software, scout around for replacements that give you the functionality you need.
    Go to Apple menu > System Preferences > Print & Scan and select your scanner from the list--if it's not there you'll need to add it (start with the little plus icon). Once you have it in the list you can click on the Open Scanner button and a pretty barebones scanner driver will load for you. But Image Capture (as mentioned previously), found in your Applications folder, will probably do the job as adequately, or better, than your old scanner software.

  • The synchronisation of iphone 4S to windows 7/64 bit does no longer work; kalender, individual ringtones and contacts get not sychronized in both directions. I tried reset on working configuration, deinstallation of itunes - nothing worked

    The synchronisation of iphone 4S to windows 7/64 bit does no longer work; kalender, individual ringtones and contacts get not sychronized in both directions. I tried reset on working configuration, deinstallation of itunes - nothing worked - what can be done to solve?

    Couple of things to check:
    You are using Outlook 2003, 2007 or 2010
    You have selected to sync Calendars and Contacts with Outlook on the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings
    You have selected your Outlook calendar as the default claendar on your iPhone (in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar)
    If all that is correct and iTunes still won't sync correctly, you might have to try reinstalling Outlook.  Another option is to enable iCloud syncing with Outlook (see http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/).  This requires Outlook 2007 or 2010.  If you decide to sync using iCloud but sure to disable contacts and calendar syncing in iTunes on the Info tab of your sync settings.  Do not try to sync with both Outlook and iCloud or you will end up with duplicates in your contacts and calendar.
    For syncing Ringtones confirm that:
    The file is really a ringtone (right-click the file in iTunes, select Get Info, on the Summary tab it should say "Kind: Ringtone".
    You have checked each of the ringtones you want to sync
    You have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos" on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings
    You have checked Sync Tones on the Tones tab of your iTunes sync settings

  • Existing Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message on the iPhone after iOS 6

    After the IOS 6 update on my iPhone the Apple ID is not longer working with Face Time and Message. Each time I try to log in I receive the message that the password or the user is not right. But they are, because on all other devices and all other parts of the iPhone (iCloud, AppStore, iTunes) they are working. Other Apple IDs are working fine.
    What's wrong? Any idea?
    Thanks

    It sounds like you restored from an old back-up.  Did you back-up just before your software update?  It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
    In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
    Sorry for your losses.
    Cheers
