Firefox stalls when opened, nothing will load, it says program stopped interacting with windows

Since early 19 August I have been unable to use firefox browser. "A problem caused this program to stop interacting with Windows." Those are the exact words it says right now on firefox failed attempt to load. There are numerous Problem signatures, as it says also. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times but it is not available. Is firefox unaware of the problem? I use windows Vista, and it is the 32 version, not 64. My bookmarks are there, but since it freezes and never loads, I cannot access them. I hate to use I.E. but my login cards with Norton are only compatible with firefox or Internet Explorer. Please provide a solution so I can have internet access again with the most convenient browser until it broke, which was firefox. There was a new something that was available, after it was downloaded, it broke down firefox so that the internet is not available, nor anything else since then from firefox, as it is still for nearly an entire day still crashed. I hate using I.E. and Opera does not have my bookmarks and other saved information I used to be able to have on firefox until it became incompatible with the internet, as nobody is able to access firefox anymore. When will the shutdown of firefox to lose it's interactiveness with windows be restored? Or does firefox plan on permanently being unavailable for all windows users as is now the case? I hate to lose all saved items if firefox is no longer going to function with windows.

If, for some reason, you think [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] is connected w/ Windows Safe Mode, it is not. [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] is a Firefox feature. Just a suggestion that might work...

  • Firefox crashes when opening and will not open in safe mode

    Recently FF3 started crashing when opening. It will not open in safe mode as well. I have uninstalled it including deleting the install folder and profile folders as well as registry entries. Upon reinstallation is will still not launch in any mode.
    I have scanned for malware with several scanners and that has not found anything.
    Here is the crash report cause - nsCOMPtr_base::~nsCOMPtr_base() | nsDocShell::SetupNewViewer(nsIContentViewer*)

  • Firefox "hangs" when opened and will not load first page

    I am running Firefox on Mac OS X and when I open it it hangs and does not load the first page. The whole application does not respond so I can't open it in safe mode or anything. I have to keep force quitting it.

    So no help from any one about this?

  • I tried to download some photos from a corrupted CD and now every time I try to open iPhoto the frame pops up but nothing will load.  I just get the spinning color wheel.  Any ideas???

    I tried to download some photos from a corrupted CD and now every time I try to open iPhoto the frame pops up but nothing will load.  I just get the spinning color wheel.  Any ideas???

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • IPad shows it it is connected to WiFi but it isn't (nothing will load)

    Just accidentally updated my iPad to iOS 7.1.1. Started it up and tried to connect to WiFi. Correct password and the WiFi is working for all different devices, and the iPad appears to connect to it successfully. The icon is there and everything. It's found the IP Address, Router, etc. etc.
    However, absolutely nothing will load (not Safari, App Store, anything). It's not a problem with WiFi - all three of my computers and my phone can connect to this WiFi, it's just my newly updated iPad.
    There are no addons and no this and that. I restored factory settings. No backups or anything.
    I have:
    1) Restarted my router,
    2) Restarted my iPad,
    3) Dropped my iPad into Recovery Mode and restored it to factory settings and tried again,
    4) Dropped my iPad into DFU Mode and restored it to factory settings and tried again,
    5) Turned off my iPad and tried again,
    6) Turned off my WiFi and tried again,
    7) Reset Network Settings and tried again,
    8) Turned off HTTP Proxy and tried again,
    9) Forgotten the Network and tried again.
    So if one of your solutions is one of the nine above, please don't bother answering me.
    Thank you,
    XymphosCraK

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
    Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server. Any difference? If not...
    2. Clear Firefox's Cache Completely
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    3. If needed, remove the site's cookies in this dialog
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    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!
    Thank you.
