Firefox not working on a new mac (OSX 10.8.2)

Installed firefox on a new mac just a few days old running OS X 10.8.2, browser never is able to connect to a web site. Checked security settings (Apple's Firewall and Little Snitch used) nothing, even created rules to specifically allow the machine to connect to mozilla.org domain and nothing, it never tried actually. Reinstalled, restarted .....any ideas or tips on what to try next would be appreciated.

What's the error your getting

  • Adobe Illustrator CS6 serial number does not work on my new MAC. It does work on my old MAC.

    I have Adobe Illustrator CS6 installed on my new Mac but the serial number does not work.
    Do I need to remove the program on the old Mac first?

    Thanks for you reply
    Then I do not understand why the serial number does not work? I have tried to type it several times.
    Regards

    You can install it on two computers simultaneously, so uninstalling is not needed if it's the only other installation.

  • LightRoom 2 will not install on my new Mac OSX 10.8.2

    I just bought a new Mac OSX 10.8.2 and trying to install my Lightroom 2 - It keeps saying installation failed...... What Can I do to help this install work?

    Correct. AFAIK Lightroom 2 is not compatible with Mac OS 10.8.x. You should upgrade your LR.

  • My photoshop elements serial number is not working on my new mac. I had windows before and returned it for a mac but can't get my serial number to work

    my photoshop elements and Lightroom serial numbers won't work for my new mac. I bought these softwares via download on my windows laptop but returned that laptop because the quality was not great. I decided to buy a mac and now can't use my serial numbers to download the software.

    Whatever you do, don't post your serial here.
    Your entering the 24 digit serial for photoshop elements 12 starting with 1057-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
    I agree with bearcatnat in that i don't know what adobe expects us to do about serials on the forums, since were just users such as yourself and don't work for adobe.

  • Has Firefox been optimzied for the new Mac OSX Lion? I've been having issues using the browser since upgrading to Lion. Issues include using some websites as well as google e-mail...icons do not appear etc.

    when checking mail in google I am not able to 'star' an e-mail or mark it etc. I don't get the option to do that, as I did before upgrading to Mac Osx Lion

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Spotlight is not working on brand new Mac mini

    Hi,
    I got an issue with two brand new Mac minis running 10.7.3 (11D50d):
    Spotlight is not working. I'm only getting the Wikipedia-Search.
    Here's what I did:
    Installation:
    - took the stock Minis and set up two users, admin and user (limited account)
    - updatet the System
    - installed manually: Adobe Reader X, Office 2011, Firefox 12, Flip4Mac, Perian, Cyberduck, Google Earth 6.2 (the installer without the updater), VLC 2
    - installed using AppStore: CalendarBar, TextWrangler, Unarchiever
    - copied a few documents (Word and Excel files) from a PC to the Desktop
    Troubleshooting:
    - tried to restart Spotlight by adding the entire harddrive to privacy using »Spotlight« within the System Preferences
    - that threw an error "no priviliges"
    - started the System from the recovery system (on an USB-thumbdrive) and repaired permissions
    - that did not help
    - tried to restart Spotlight through the Terminal, running the command: sudo mdutil -E /
    - that command returned: No index.
    - the tried: sudo mdutil -i on /
    - returned: Error: unable to perform operation.  (-400) No index.
    - went the hard way
    - unloaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    - erased the Spotlight folder: sudo rm -fr .Spotlight-V100/
    - loaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    That made everything work fine until I did a restart of the System. After the mini restarted I was back at square one...
    Does anyone have an idea how to fix this issue?
    Apple support suggested to reinstall the system. Something I can't do right now, as people need to work on those computers and cannot take a tow hour break...

    Hi Ray Land,
    We can help narrow down the cause.  What operating system are you using on your new Mac Mini? 
    If you are running the Mountain Lion OS, you can download the latest driver here.  An important note is that the current print queue must be deleted before installing the new driver.  This will ensure proper communication.
    If this doesn't work or you need further assistance, please contact us here.

  • AE CC does not work with the new Apple OSX!!!

    whats up????

    We have just released After Effects CC (12.0.1) for Mac OS X v10.9 (Mavericks):
    http://adobe.ly/AE_CC_1201_Mavericks
    IMPORTANT: The After Effects CC (12.0.1) update fixes a crash on Mac OS X (v10.9). There is no need to install this update on any other operating system. After Effects CC (12.1) is coming soon for all operating systems and includes this same fix plus many more features and bug fixes.
    Be sure that you are signed in and have activated the software—i.e., ensure that you are not running After Effects in free trial mode. The update will not work if you are running the application in trial mode.
    This update is only available as a manual download (not through the Creative Cloud automatic update mechanism) to prevent users on versions of Mac OS X other than v10.9 (Mavericks) from installing it unnecessarily.
    Adobe After Effects CS6 (11.0.3) was released a little while ago with this fix, plus fixes for many other crashes and bugs. Details: http://adobe.ly/AE_CS6_1103

  • Firefox will not start, will not open in safe mode, and still will not work after clean reinstall, Mac/OSX

    One moment I was using Firefox the same as I always have. The only difference was that I changed the preferences to erase history when quitting Firefox. When trying to open the program again, it is immediately unresponsive. I attempted opening it in safe mode and a window will appear but never load, and Firefox remains unresponsive. I could not reset Firefox either. I deleted the application and re-downloaded Firefox, but it changed nothing. I am in OSX 10.7.4. Can anyone help?

    Hello chillman4130, try to create a new profile(in case that you profile is corrupted), go (with closed firefox...... it is anyway) to /Applications/Utilities > Open the Terminal application > in the Terminal application, enter the following:

    Press Return
    the above opens Profile Manager, if the profile manager open then see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles#w_creating-a-profile Creating a profile]

  • Any news on CC Particle World not working on the new Macs?

    I discovered to my horror that CC Particle World doesn't work on the early 09 Mac Pros. Something about Adobe stuff not fully workable with the Nehalem processors. Any news on a solution?  I need my particle world!

    We're working on an update that will address this issue. Here's a link to a Technical Support knowledgebase article that says essentially the same thing now and will be updated with more information when we have it.

  • My mission control key does not work with the new Mac update

    The key on the keyboard doesnt work, neither does the button on my dock.  Any help?
    P.S. is anyone else having as much trouble as I am with the new update?

    The pre-2006 Mac models this forum covers cannot run a Mac OS high enough to have Mission Control. If you can identify your Mac to us we can get you moved to a more active forum.

  • Brand new superdrive not working w brand new Mac Book Air

    Hi, just came home from Apple Store today with new computer and superdrive, which is not showing up when plugged in. When I put a CD in it reads it for a few seconds then spits it out. I am on the road so getting to an Apple Store will not be easy for the  next week. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    A number of users have had this issue because the superdrive was upside down.  They were basically putting the CD in "upside down".   Silver side up.
    I Apologize in advance, just thought I'd throw it out there...
