Firefox update 10 won't open and the previous version 3.6 won't load any pages. I have done everything this site said to do. HELP?

The last version of Firefox that I had was the one before 3.6. I stopped upgrading due to it always messing up and not working right for me... whether it be due to vista, or just errors on your part. My husband decided to upgrade firefox to the newest one two days ago because the version I had was just "too slow!" Ever since he did that, I cannot get firefox to open. No matter how many times I uninstall it and delete everything mozilla on my computer then reinstall after restarting my computer, it just refuses to open. Every time i try it says that firefox has stopped working. It cant even check for solutions. I then try to click on the icon and I get something that says: firefox.exe - Bad Image C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc80.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.6195_none_d09154e044272b9a\MSVCP80.dll is either not designed to run n windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.
I have tried installing it over and over again several times, same message shows up. So i had clicked on the link to go download the previous version of firefox... what sucks is that the only version on the site is 3.6.27. I have never upgraded to this. So the second i installed that version, i now am able to open up firefox... BUT it is unable to connect. I have internet... a pretty bad ass connection. So my internet is not the problem. I then looked up how to fix that issue and did all 5 things listed under the Firefox cant load pages but other browsers can link. Still nada! I am now stuck using IE and going insane. I am on the verge of throwing my laptop out of the damn window because I have to wait 3 hours for google to load. Nothing is working for me... and it would be appreciated for something more. If i can get help with a ton of details on what to do or how to fix this issue... either version... i would greatly appreciate it. I am going nuts having to put up with IE because my husband decided to update Firefox to a version that sucks with vista!

Here is the system requirements page: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html.
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older has the latest 3.6.x version, and http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ is another option.

  • What is the difference between the new 13" MacBook Pros and the previous version of the 13" MacBook Pro?

    What is the difference between the new 13" MacBook Pros and the previous version of the 13" MacBook Pro?

    Note that iStatPro has not been updated in quite awhile and may not be reading the guts of a totally new system correctly. IIRC, the Late 2011 MBPs were beginning to tax iStatPro already, as they had newer sensors the older code was completely unaware of.
    For strictly measuring temps on the guts of these newer Macs, maybe use Marcel Bresink's free Temperature Monitor? Last updated in March 2012. In my Late 2011 15" MBP, it picks up all 18 sensors...

    Or go whole hog for his Hardware Monitor, for oodles more info from the Mac. Follow the Products link from above.

    See the specs:
    Compare Notebooks - Apple Store (U.S.)
    Compare with your model. If you are within 14 days of purchase you can exchange for the new model for the difference in price, if any. Be sure to have all the original packaging and your receipt.

    The Front camera of my iPod Touch isn't working,I have done everything possible...restart it, up date it...etc. NOTHING WORKS, is there a program or something I can download??

    Your iPod is probably covered by the warranty.  Check here:
    Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
    However, it does not cover misuse such as caused by dropping the iPod.
    - Try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - See if placing the iPod in recovery will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • My itunes won't open, and the FAQ won't help

    this problem may be familiar:
    i downloaded and installed itunes 6 just the other day. after it finished updating i went to open itunes, and it wouldn't open, and it only gave me the error message. i went to the support center and it recognized the problem, telling me to uninstall quicktime and then repair itunes. however i didn't find quicktime in the "add or remove programs" list, despite the fact that it was open and displayed in my computer's toolbar. i exited quicktime and tried repairing itunes again, no luck. i tried opening quicktime again and it wouldn't open, and the uninstaller also doesn't work. i'm thinking my only option now is to uninstall itunes, but i'm really worried that i'd lose 35 gigs of music if i did. 1: is my problem fixable and how, and 2: if i have to uninstall itunes, will i lose all my music? should i back it up?
    thanks.

    it didn't work! i uninstalled itunes and then reinstalled it, and the same problem persists! quicktime still isn't in the add or remove programs list, and it still won't open! this is immensely frustrating. what do i do?

  • PDF Files on desktop won;t open all the way. 11.07 won't download with Maverick 11.06

    I have Maverick 11.0.6.  It quit downloading 11.07 half way through.  Also, some PDF files on my desktop won;t open all the way.  Still show the logo. What is going on?

    The Installer that you had downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5786 is the 11.0.07 patch update for Reader XI. It shows the dialog "choose the copy of Adobe Reader to update" under following scenarios:
    1. When it finds more than one copy of Adobe Reader installed on a system. In this case, You need to choose the application that you use, like browse to Applications directory and choose Adobe Reader if that is the location from where you use the application.
    2. When the installer didn't find any copy of Adobe Reader installed on a system which it needs to update. In this case, you may install Adobe Reader XI version 11.0.07 directly from here get.adobe.com/reader/ from the same machine you intend to use it on.
    Please let us know if any of the above suggestion resolved your problem.

  • After downloading new version of firefox, i didn't like it and attempted to restore my system to a previous time and version of firefox. Now firefox won't open, even the old version isn't there anymore.

    I want to get firefox back, keeping all of the bookmarks.

    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    *Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    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.

    Firefox 16.0.2 is the last version that works on an Intel Mac with the OS X 10.5 operating system.
    * http://download.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/16.0.2/mac/
    Another possibility is to install the Firefox 10.0.12esr (BuildID=20130103094221) version that has more security updates, but misses features present in Firefox 16 (BuildID=20121024073032).

  • Firefox won't open and the steps in tutorial didn't help nor did uninstalling and re-installing

    Hi,
    I have been thru the tutorial and none of the steps solved the problem I am having with firefox. I just installed it on a new computer and it won't open. It says that it cannot run until process is ended or computer is restarted. Restarting and ending the process don't seem to help. The other tutorial step of deleting the lock file doesn't work either as I could not find a lock file.

    Right... Back to square one.
    - Open Internet Explorer, go to "www.mozilla.com" and download the installer for Firefox 3.6.12 and save it to your desktop.
    - To uninstall Firefox, first make sure no "firefox.exe" processes are running on your machine: Open the task manager (invoke it by pressing ctrl-alt-del and choosing the appropriate option), click on the "Processes" tab, click on the heading "Name" to sort all running processes by name.
    Scroll down the list and right-click on the first "firefox.exe" process picking the "Kill process" option. If there's more than one of them, repeat for all instances of "firefox.exe".
    - Now go to the directory C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall and double-click "helper.exe". This should uninstall Firefox completely.
    - Now we're in for the hard part: Go to C:\Dokuments and Settings\[Your User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles. That's where your profile resides. Unless you're using the Profile Manager, chances are you're seeing just one directory "[random string],default". (In my case it's called "4sr92zjz.default", f. ex.).
    If you got any bookmarks you'd like to keep, open this folder, find the file "places.sqlite" and move it to your desktop.
    Now delete the entire contents of your profile folder--you'll need to configure firefox anew. Do keep this window open, you'll need it again in a few moments.
    Go to your desktop, run the installer, start Firefox once, close it again and move your "places.sqlite" file from your desktop to your profile folder.
    Now double-click Firefox and reconfigure it according to your preferences.
    N.B.: Do get "MozBackup". With this application you're able to save and restore a working Firefox profile--for your next mishap ;-)
