Firefox stopped working after I ok'd some kind of update. Now i need to know how to uninstall and reinstall it . I am on Mac os 10.4.11

The above statement explains my problem, but nothing on you website seems to help me.

re "Apple should have the control panel report the proper IP address"
On clicking Personal web sharing, you get information to the effect:
View this computer’s website at http://10.1.1.4/ or your personal website at http://10.1.1.4/~user/
This is wrong to a user. Others could not enter this URL and get access to the website using this information. This is what I meant by "wrong"--its NOT the IP address that the user should use to view/use the web site. The software already knows its using DHCP, etc., so it should know to present the modem's IP and from memory in the past it did. As a wrote earlier, I used to be able to just copy the IP address given.
What Apple probably need are two statements:
To view this computer’s website from the local network use ...
To view this computer’s website from the internet use ...
Even, then I'd question the use of 10.1.1.4.

Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. Please help!

Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. I don't get a spinning ball, it just stops working at whatever page it's on. I can close the program just fine but when I re-open it, either safari or firefox, it freezes trying to load the hompage. This started a few days ago after trying to stream a movie on my computer. I'm on a Mac Air OS X Version 10.6.8 and have downloaded all updates. When I go into finder, it says I have over 80 gigs available. Is there some other memory cache that I need to check? Thanks so much for your help.

It's not a router problem as I explained in my post. If it was a router problem then I wouldn't have the problem everywhere I go. It is an issue with the software.
Then I guess the millions of people running 10.5.7 with no issues are just hallucinating that their machines are working fine?
I'm not trying to belittle your issues; you're certainly having them and I know first hand how annoying an intermittent AirPort issue can be. (In fact, mine was due to an AirPort driver bug that no one else seemed to suffer from.)
The single best diagnostic you could do is take your system running 10.5.7 to an Apple Store, and try using their in-store network.
If your machine performs flawlessly, it may be a router issue.
If your machine has connectivity issues there, it may be a hardware problem with your machine.
There have been numerous people in multiple threads over the years who swore that an update was buggy because things used to work, but returned later to sheepishly admit that they took their machine in, a problem was found and fixed, and now their Mac works flawlessly with the newer software.
But simply reinstalling 10.5.5 in no way means the explanation of how firmware bugs may be at play here is incorrect.
In the context of that explanation, all you've done is possibly reinstall software that asks to add "2 + 3."

WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS X

WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS.
MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
Thanks

Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

trying to launch photoshop cs3 on a mac running OS10.6.8 i keep getting the error message: Licensing for this product has stopped working you cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT adminstrator or Adobe customer support for help
I already Uninstalled and reinstalled the product and it still does not work.

Hi,
Try to uninstall the software again and you have to manually
Delete the following folders:
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/backup
[Startup Disk]/Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/FLEXnet Publisher/
Go to Applications-->Utilities-->Disk Utility, Open it and Select the MAC HD and then click on Repair permissions.
After that try to run the cleaner tool as mentioned by kglad.
Restart machine and then try to install again.
*** Make sure , you only delete these folders if there is no other adobe applications installed on the machine. As if you have any other Adobe application of the suite ( not free applications ) then it will be a problem.

I still get plug in failure even after uninstall and reinstalled adobe flash to my mac os x 10.7.5 (4 bit) with flash 16.0.0.235 how do I get this fixed??? HELP

I still get plug in failure even after uninstall and reinstalled adobe flash to my mac os x 10.7.5 (4 bit) with flash 16.0.0.235 how do I get this fixed??? HELP

That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

When uninstalling iTunes on your windows computer, there is a specific way it must be done in order to completely uninstall all components of the software. Ensure you follow the article for your correct OS.
Did you do this when uninstalling??

Add-ons for android Firefox stop working after reboot

I have Firefox (ver. 21.0) installed on my Ramos W30 tablet running ICS (4.0.4) and my UG007 android stick running JB (4.1.1). They both have the same problem. After a reboot, the add-ons stop working. If you look at the add-ons, all the info which would show below "options" is gone. The only way I've been able to get them working again is to uninstall and reinstall the add-ons.
Any other way to fix this or prevent this from happening?

I only use 2 add-ons and it happens with both. I use adblock and tabstothefront. They both stop working after reboot.

Firefox stops working after computer goes to sleep 37.0.1

Running Win7 Home Premium and Firefox 37.0.1. Since this upgrade, when any of my three computers goes to sleep, Firefox stops working. Sometimes the process can be exited, but regardless, Firefox cannot be reloaded and the computer must be rebooted. When the computer has gone to sleep, and Firefox has stopped working, other browsers, such as Explorer also say they cannot connect to the internet. The fact that this problem simultaneously appeared on different computers following this upgrade suggests that this is a Firefox problem. The only way I can avoid this is to exit Firefox after every use. In many cases, the only web page visited during a session is google.

This is a known issue, and the programers are looking at it.

FireFox stopped working after I tried to update my settings

I have just built a new computer; x58 Gigabyte, 920 cpu, windows 7 Ultimate. I downloaded and installed the latest version of Firefox and everything was working great. I updated my bookmarks and everything still worked fine. I tried to update my personal settings by copying a file in my personal folder and Firefox stopped working. "Can't run because it is already running". I rebooted, no help. I removed and reinstalled no help. I am at your mercy please don't make me use Internet Explorer
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== today ==

Is there a '''parent.lock''' file in your Profile folder?
If so, delete that file.

Why has Broken Sword 2.5 stopped working after OS X Lion 10.7.5 update?

Dear users,
Would any know why the fangame Broken Sword 2.5 stopped working after I decided to update my OS X Lion up to 10.7.5?
Should this be a prompt for me to re-install the game after copying my save files?
Thankfully ScummVM seems to be okay ...
This sort of brings back memories of Windows.
Thank you

The savefiles were no where to be found, not even in the Application Support folder.
I re-installed the .dmg file and chose "Replace" after dragging the App icon in to the Applications folder ... And still no results

After successful installation of iTunes 10.6.1, iTunes will not open. Tried complete uninstall and reinstall, still not working. Cannot sync iPad or access iTunes at all. Any suggestions?

After successfully installing the iTunes upgrade to 10.6.1, Now I cannot open and access itunes. I have tried a complete uninstall and reinstall and it is still not working. I have looked through many support communities for answers. I added an iPad 2 almost a year ago and all was fine until my upgrade to the "cloud services" and upgrade to new version. I have been without iTunes on my PC for a month. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

I too have only recently encountered this problem. I have been able to burn disks before but it keeps making all these weird sounds. It might be a hardware problem but the fact that everything else that uses a disk works I doubt it.

How to uninstall and reinstall if firefox is my only internet connection

getting directed to bad place when accessing internet. Did virus scan, found nothing.
How can I uninstall and reinstall firefox since I have no other internet connection. I DO NOT was to load internet explorer.

Bad redirects can result from a variety of causes, including (1) system level malware, (2) system level settings changes, (3) bad Firefox add-on, (4) Firefox settings changes, (5) other (depending on the nature of the redirect).
Here's what I suggest for tracking it down:
(1) Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
(2) Then, in Firefox, open the '''Add-ons page''' using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins. Set nonessential and unrecognized plugins to "Never Activate".
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
(3) Check your '''Firefox connection setting''' in the Options dialog here:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
The default of "Use system proxy settings" should piggyback on your Windows/IE "LAN" connection settings, but you also can try "No Proxy" to see whether that works better.
(4) Search for remaining issues with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Are you able to get rid of the unwanted redirect?

Laptop shut down during firefox update and now will not start up - did a uninstall and reinstall and still will not start up

firefox was installing an update and i accidently hit the power button and so it shut down in the middle of the update. after i started my computer again, firefox would not start up. i tried to download it hoping the update would complete but it still would not start up when i clicked on the icon. so i tried to delete it and it would not delete said it was open, so i shut down and restarted the computer. then it deleted using the control panel remove program option. after that i logged onto IE to mozilla.org and downloaded it, afterward it still would not open up or connect to the internet.

Hi meekprm-
It sounds like you've tried to do the right thing- by uninstalling and then reinstalling. I'm hoping that you can look over the steps I usually suggest and see if there is anything different that may help you get a fresh version of Firefox installed.
* Get the latest version: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
* Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
* Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
