Firefox "The procedure entry point PK11_Derive With Template nss3.dll" wont start warning message?

Firefox will not start warning message "The procedure entry point PK11_Derive With Template nss3.dll" after IE update and zeroing cookies.

Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that 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.
You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

"The procedure entry point udat_applyPatternRelative...icuin40.dll

Greetings.
After installing the MobileMe Control Panel if received this nice error message once I started MobileMe. It took a while to finally resolve the issue and I am sorry to say that the MobileMe support didn't do quite well.
If you ever run into this issue, search you disk for icuin40.dll files.
If you have more that one, than uninstall the application that installed it. After that uninstall MobileMe Control Panel and iTunes (all components), bounce the system and reinstall iTunes and MobileMe.
Et Voilá! It works. Somehow the wrong icuin40.dll got registered.

'''Edit: '''That was a lot of questions. You might want to just re-run the Firefox 5.0.1 installer to see whether that corrects what appears to be a mismatch of files. I suggest saving the installer to the desktop, restarting Windows to ensure that all file locks are released, and then running the installer. As always, you can download from here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
In your other post, you wrote "I just downloaded FireFox 5.0 today, and none of the icons on my desktop will open. This is the message that I receive. The procedure entry point NS_Set DLL Directory could not be located in dynamic link library Xul.dll."
Can you describe what happens in these different scenarios:
(1) Start Firefox with its own program icon. Error dialog, but Firefox runs normally after you dismiss it? Or no error? Or Firefox won't start?
(2) Firefox not running, double-click shortcut to web site on desktop. Error dialog but Firefox loads the page after you dismiss it? Or Firefox doesn't load the page? Or Firefox never loads??
(3) Firefox running, double-click shortcut to web site on desktop. Error dialog but Firefox loads the page after you dismiss it? Or Firefox doesn't load the page? Or Firefox dies??
(4) Double-click unrelated desktop shortcut. Does this give an error as well?
If you've noticed effects with links in documents or emails outside of Firefox, that could be a clue as well.

After installing a new version of Firefox, I get the error message "The procedure entry point JS_GetOperationLimit could not be located in the dynamic link library js3250.dll" when I try to start firefox. Elsewhere in the forum a complete reinstall is suggested; however, I can't do that because of my company's IT policies. Is there any way to solve this problem WITHOUT a complete reinstall? Thank you!

If you can't reinstall Firefox yourself then you need to contact your IT department and ask them to check the Firefox installation.
It is possible that some files got broken with the latest update.

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

My only option is to click okay in the Error Message Box, but Firefox will not open then.

hi, do you have service pack 3 installed on your xp computer?

I have a problem with ( AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found ) The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be locate in the dynamic link library SWLite3.dll.

I have a problem with ( AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found ) The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be locate in the dynamic link library SWLite3.dll.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Reboot and see if all is well
In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

What do I do when I try to open Fifrefox 4 & get the message: The procedure entry point NS_SetDllDirectory could not be located in the dynamic link library xul.dll?

2 days ago, I got a message about upgrading to Firefox 4.0. I didn't do it immediately, due to lack of time. Later that day, I tried to open Firfox & got the message: Firefox can't start because xul.dll is missing. Reinstall the program to fix this. I tried several times to open Firefox & got the same result. I tried rebooting. Same result. So I opened Internet Explorer & went to the Firefox website & followed the instructions to download Firefox 4. After that, I used it last night & left my laptop hibernating last night, then continued to use it this morning. Then I closed Firefox. When I next tried to reopen Firefox, I got the new message: The procedure entry point NS_SetDllDirectory could not be located in the dynamic link library xul.dll. Again, I can only access the internet with Internet Explorer. Also, I have a done a good many Windows updates over the last 2 days as well. What can I do to get Firefox to open? Thank you for your help.

This is what I did to resolve this problem. First, I uninstalled Firefox 4 & removed the Firefox folder left behind. I made sure to NOT select the option to delete personal information. Next, I backed up all of the important files on my computer. Next, I upgraded my Windows 7 to Service Pack 1, which was pending in my updates folder. Then, I went to Mozilla's website & downloaded Firefox 4 again, making sure to select only the Firefox browser and not Thunderbird too. http://www.mozilla.org/ When prompted to close any open programs, I closed Internet Explorer (which I had used to get to the Mozilla website) and I disabled my Norton anti-virus. I then completed the installation & it works just fine now. It loaded all of my personal data, such as bookmarks, it remembered my password, etc. It's fine for my needs, as I'm not a heavy user of special add-ons & plug-ins. Some of those may not work yet with the new version.

The procedure entry point NSSUTIL_EscapeSize could not be located in the dynamic link library nssutil3.dll

Windows XP with Firefox 18.0.1 wont open when upgraded to latest version.
Error messages were
(1) the procedure entry point PR_SetCurrentThreadName could not be located in the dynamic link library ndpr4.dll (2) the procedure entry point NSSUTIL_EscapeSize could not be located in the dynamic link library nssutil3.dll (3) could not load XPCOM
Ran malware & virus software then removed Firefox via Control panel, then residual folder from Programme files folder and from C:\Documents&Settings\Administrator\Local Folders\ApplicationData\Mozilla.
Sourced & installed ndpr4.dl and nssutil3.dll - fresh reinstall firefox several times - this got rid of error message 1 but not 2 or 3 and still can't open Firefox.
Any solutions?

I have this problem and I am using Zone Alarm Extreme Security with Force Field enabled. I found that by clearing the Virtual Cache in Zone Alarm that this problem went away and was able to run firefox again.
Here is a post I found that addresses the issue sort of.
