Firefox opens, but only gives a white/grey screen and does not do anything further

I have re-started and re-installed Firefox, but nothing works. When I try to delete the profiles via run command, there pops up a little black window, but nothing further. Please tell me how to get Firefox working again. Thanks!

hello pvisser, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • I-Pod touch only gives me the Apple symbol and will not respond to anything tried, including the "restore" method. Any clues? Thanks

    I-Pod touch will not respond. I tried to "restore" it through I-Tunes and update which took nearly two hours, but it still only gives me the Apple symbol and does nothing else whatsoever. It seems completely locked up. Any help? thanks much!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I am the administrator on my computer but my new hard drive is locked and does not give me permission to unlock

    I am the administrator on my computer but my new hard drive is locked and does not give me permission to unlock. How do I fix this? I already tried fixing permissions.

    Whoops! I don't know why but this time when I clicked on the lock it opened and I was able to fix the problem. I am curious tho' as to why this happened.

  • I have a white/grey screen and none of the suggested operations have helped, what should I do?

    I have a white/grey screen and none of the suggested options have worked - I have tried all the suggestions on Apple support

    Ok, I've had this problem before and contacted Applecare support and they told me that it was an issue with the RAM inside the Mac or something like that. They told me to refresh the ram, and it fixed the problem so that's what I'd recommend.  Here's how to do it.
    Hit Power button, then press and hold Command + R + Option + P at the same time.
    This resets the residual ram that is causing the start up to hang.
    Try that, I hope it works for you.

  • I have upgraded my MAC OS to 10.6.8.  FCP 5.0 still runs great, but Soundtrack Pro 1.01 opens, but operates at a glacial pace.  It does not functionally operate.  What can be done to remedy this?

    I have upgraded my MAC OS to 10.6.8. 
    Final Cut Pro 5.0 still runs great, but Soundtrack Pro 1.01 opens, but operates at a glacial pace.  It does not functionally operate. 
    What can be done to remedy this?

    Depending on the configuration of the computer hardware and software
    you may need to consider upgrade the RAM by installing more capacity.
    Also, in the same vane, choose to consider upgrade the hard drive to
    one of faster transfer, such as SSD, hybrid, or fusion; if not already at
    least 7200-RPM and not too full of saved content.
    Since no information is given about the model build configuration of Mac
    there may be other suggestions to make it work better. Usually an OS X
    upgrade requires one to look at the hardware resources available to it.
    The OS X works best with more memory: new higher capacity chips.
    This may be possible, and they should be high quality from reputable
    vender who has tested them on Apple in OS X, such as OWC or Crucial.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Why if you open multiple applications, my phone became a white screen and can not do anything

    why if you open multiple applications, my phone became a white screen and can not do anything ?

    That is not normal. Very few apps are actually running in the background. What troubleshooting steps have you taken? Have you reset the phone by simultaneously pressing the Home and power buttons until the apple appears? Restored from back up? Restored as new?

  • Ibookg4 will not go past the grey screen and will not accept a disc

    my ibook will not go past the grey screen and will not accept a disc

    Have you tried starting up in Safe Mode? If not, I suggest that you give it a try. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
    If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
    Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
    See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

  • When I open my MacBook Air the keyboard comes up along with the screen and does not stay still?!

    When I open my MacBook Air the keyboard comes up along with the screen and does not stay still. So I need to hold down the keyboard while i open it. Other than that it works fine despite the fact that the fan noise some times is loud and sometimes it's getting warm at the base. I wonder if this can be fixed if i go to one of the apple branches.

    Yes. Take the computer to the Apple store to have it fixed.

  • My password lock cannot be turned off (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot set to "simple" password (4 digits) for the same reason (button greyed out)

    Today, I got a message from my iphone 4 telling me that my password was expired and that I had to change it.
    Now I am forced to enter a 8 character long password and I cannot turn off the password lock (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot change to "simple" code.
    I am so upset that I am considering throwing the bloody thing to the rubbish bin
    Can you help?

    Have a work Exchange account on your phone? These policies can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone. There is nothing you can do to change this except delete the Exchange account.

    Ok, sounds like the safe mode boot worked... You probably don't want to always be in safe mode though (some reduced functionality) so does it do a normal boot now? If not, you should then reboot into safe mode and run Disk Utility. Then select Macintosh HD on the left hand side, and click the Verify Disk button. If needed, it will ask you to Repair Disk. If there are errors found, Repair Disk again until there are none. Then try another normal boot and reply with result, wether good or bad.
