Firefox refuses to go to any website, won't open bookmarks, just won't work. Oh HELP!!!!!

I tried to open Firefox this morning and got a message saying that the installation was malformed (huh?!?!?!?). It opens but refuses to go to any website, it won't open any of my bookmarks, and it won't allow me to refresh or do ANYTHING AT ALL. I am running Mac OS 10.4.11 and I have ordered Snow Leopard but it hasn't arrived. Meanwhile, I'm unable to upgrade Firefox until Snow Leopard arrives...is there ANYTHING I can do to get my Firefox back in the meantime? Help.....!

  • Since updating to Firefox 4 on my OSX 10.5.8 mac Firefox will not go to any website

    Since updating to Firefox 4 on my OSX 10.5.8 mac Firefox will not go to any website. Firefox will launch but it won't load anything, the page is entirely blank - no home page loads - nothing. Also - It will not let me install any add ons. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. other apps such as Safari and Mail work as normal. I need Firefox - please help if you can. Thanks

    You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

    Firefox will not connect to any website *at all* since upgrading to latest version. No mention of Firefox anywhere in firewall- and anti-malware-related services (Intego VirusBarrier X6 V10.6.13).

    I had this issue. I went to c:\program files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
    I renamed my plugins folder to plugins.old.
    It recreated the Plugins folder and all was good again. I have since reinstalled the plugins I've been prompted to install.

    Hi efacg,
    Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
    If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

    If it is the third party apps crashing - try downloading another app - any free app is fine. See if that resets the other apps.

    Shouldn't be having a problem, then. That's the version for ML. Try taking your question to the Safari forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/safari - that's where all the Safari experts hang out.

    Sydneybling it does sound like your security software is interfering with the process of installing and utilizing your Adobe Creative applications.  I would recommend that you try temporarily disabling your security software and utilizing the directions listed at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html to install InDesign CC.

  • HT1338 My mail won't open but it won't close on my finder bar...won't let me shut down my Mac.

    My mail won't open but it won't close on my finder bar...won't let me shut down my Mac.

    Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu and shut it down from there. If that doesn't work, save and close everything you can, and then use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process.

  • On a Mac (10.6.4), Firefox asks to download/save any websites with an .asp extension. How do I get these sites to display properly?

    Any website that uses the .asp suffix will not open within the browser. Instead, firefox asks to download the website. If I choose to open the .asp file with firefox in the download prompt, I end up in a loop of asking to download/open. The asp websites work fine in Safari.

  • Firefox will not connect to any website but other browsers can

    I installed firefox on my new advent laptop running windows 7 but it will not connect to any websites. I can connect using chrome or ie no problem but i always preferred firefox as a browser, i have tried changing settings and turning off my firewall but still having no luck

    Okay, here is my answer to this problem. At least it fixed my problem and firefox now works fine.
    Prior to this problem I was running zonealarm (free firewall) everything worked fine until I removed zonealarm free and installed Comodo free firewall. That is when the trouble started. firefox failed and IE kept working. I tried everything posted here nothing worked for me.
    I resorted to "REGEDIT" and removed everything in my registry that regedit would allow that had the name of "zonealarm" on it. Didn't even have to reboot my system, firefox worked first thing. Everything else is fine also.
    [note: this is not a slam against Lavasoft's ZoneAlarm firewall. It is just that UNINSTALL programs do not always do a thorough job of removing parts of programs in your systems and registry cleaner programs do not pick them up either.]
    USE CARE, "REGEDIT" IS A POWERFUL AND DANGEROUS TOOL TO USE ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE NOT A SOMEWHAT ADVANCED USER. USE CARE WITH "REGEDIT!"
    Good luck.

  • Firefox quit working will not open any websites at all. Bookmarks and Menu are gone too.

    Mozilla was updating itself and zonealarm wanted me to allow it while I was in middle of a online school test question so I clicked deny just to try and finish the test. This did nothing but keep opening the zonealarm window to see if the update could be done, which I finally did but now mozilla is not working on any websites and i've uninstalled it and reinstalled it and also added the update settings but its not working. passwords and now im basically locked out of them.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • My computer refuses to access almost any website with a .gov ending?

    I have been trying to access numerous government websites for a research project, and my computer will not load almost any website with a .gov ending. Although it will access things like the NIH, the FBI and the CDC, it refuses to acces some of the other main government sites, like the Department of Justice, the Department of Education or other departmental sites. I just tried to load the site on another computer, and it worked. Any ideas what I could do to fix this?
