Firefox will no longer open any website, not even a Mozilla support page. Resetting, even with add-ons disabled, has not helped.

The question explains the whole thing. No web page will open at all, except for the blank Firefox page. Typing in an address, clicking on a site in the history, opening a new tab and working from it - nothing works. I've reset it twice, restarted with add-ons disabled. All with the same result. (I just clicked on the Show Details link at the bottom of this page, and nothing happened.

Suddenly Can't Open PDFs. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab.

Suddenly Can't Open PDFs in Firefox. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab. Nice timing, with finals and everything where I need to view PDFs of practice tests.

Mozilla Firefox did not do their job, here. I am an editor and am constantly online. Now, I have to go to Safari to download PDFs. I reinstalled an earlier version of Firefox to get rid of the problem, but somehow Firefox has deactivated my PDF download feature. This is a total wreck and I am so angry I could spit. Stop launching new products until you have fully tested them. Customers are not your guinea pigs. Please fix this now- and fire a few idiots on the way- the ones who let this happen.

After upgrading to the latest Firefox (3.6.6) today, the browser will no longer open any websites, I just get a blank page

After upgrading to the latest version of FF, I can no longer access any webpages. The IE browser does work though.

I had to go back to the last install file I had on hand, which was 3.0.9 because FF "denied proxy" after upgrading. Once I get that message, the program won't even open until I install an older version. Upgrading again yields the same results.

Firefox will no longer open on my Mac. I have tried downloading the new 7.0 but it does not prompt movement to the application folder. How to I make it work?

I have tried multiple times to update the firefox7.0. It appears to download fine but I never get a prompt to move it to the applications folder. Now Firefox will not open at all (it was functioning sporatically over the past several months). How to fix?

AFAIK cameras offer their own built-in format utility for inserted SD cards. You should use that. Otherwise, refer to the manual that came with your camera to determine precisely how your SD cards need to be formatted to work properly. Personally, I'd suggest Partition Scheme: MBR, and Filesystem: FAT32.
Try to limit the number of formats you perform on the SD cards, though, as you're reducing their lifespan. I believe formatting causes re-writes to a portion of the SD card that has fewer read/write cycles than the rest of the card as a whole.

I updated to Firefox 7 and now the scrollwheel on my touchpad doesn't work. Have tried updating my device driver, and restarting with add ons disabled. Please help!

OS- Windows 7
Upgraded from Firefox 3. I tried updating to FF 4 a while ago and had the same problem, so I went back to 3. Decided it was time to upgrade and the problem recurred. Please help!

Try to modify the pref ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it. See "details" box for full description.

Firefox will no longer open completely. My home page appears, but I can't do anything with it--can't use "Help," can't search the Web, can't even use "Sign Out." I have to close it entirely to get out of it. A box comes up and says "Yahoo Mail is loading especially slowly" and tells me my computer speed is slow. But this is the same computer I've always used for Firefox, and Yahoo comes up quickly and completey through Internet Explorer (which is how I'm sending this message). Can anyone help me load Firefox so that it works? I even downloaded the latest version of Firefox, but it makes no difference. Thanks.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
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.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
You can also try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.

Firefox will no longer open. all proceedures have been tried. there's an error in generating a crash report. If I reinstall firefox from scratch, will I loose all bookmarks?

I had power hits that cycled my computer a few times. I had to do a recovery from a week ago. Firefox will no longer start. A crash report pop-up shows an error and cannot send a report. I'm assuming the program will have to be reinstalled. Will I loose all previous bookmarks. Doing a windows search for bookmarks only shows about 1/3 of saved bookmarks. Are they gone too.

I gambled, and all bookmarks returned.

Having a problem with Add-ons I did not install and now can't uninstall.

Lately I have experienced problems with re-directing and other issues with Mozilla. I looked in my add-ons list and there are several things there that i did not add manually. (I have been having much trouble with ITunes and noticed a plug in in mozilla and want to know if it is necessary.) Is there a way to keep this from happening? I have been using mozilla for years and liked it when I could do a basic install without any add-ons that I did not request. Here is a list of the things that are troubling me - I am sure a few may be necessary. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me with this?

For camera problem try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I do not understand what you mean about your update problem

My Firefox will no longer open a new tab when i click on it or when i use the shortcut.

I have tried looking through all the setting that it gave me and i can not find when it wont let me open a new tab. All the settings i have are the default settings and before it happened i hadn't even been into the setting so its not like i was messing with them and then it messed up it just happened one time. I do not have any viruses or anything because i use 3 different virus scans and they say my computer its clean. Also my virus scanning programs are up to date i updated them today.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

No,
the MacPro is the muscle machine and not constrained by power or cooling limitations like the MacBoo Pro is.
OR AT LEAST BE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR REALLY HEAVY STUFF?
If you press the MacBook Pro like a desktop machine, it will blow fans like a hurricane but will do the job eventually.
The longer you blow fans on a laptop, the sooner it clogs up with crippling dust and shortens the life of the machine.
You'll need the top end 15" or better, not the 13" as it has no dedicated graphics, only CPU graphics.
Preferably if you just now getting into video, you should be considering Avid on a Windows 7 tower, it's because Apple has been ignoring the MacPro for hardware updates to improve it and it seems like they don't want to carry it anymore. Also the last Final Cut Pro version had Hollywood up in arms as Apple removed a lot of required abilities to make it more "consumer friendly" which upset the Pro market who likes control.
Apple is focusing on the consumer computing market and getting away from the "Pro" market which needs the heavier hardware to handle video needs. They stopped selling the X-RAID and the X-Server, so Apple really isn't a "computer" company any longer.
Sure you can use a MacBook Pro and a external monitor for doing home movies and such occasionally, but if your into serious production you need to consdier other options now.
There is nothing wrong in getting a MacBook Air and a Windows 7 professional video tower too.

I recently started Firefox with Add-ons disabled in an attempt to discover why it is loading so slowly. Now, the Add-ons aren't loading automatically. Prior to starting in Safe Mode everything was working perfectly Thank you for your help!

Firefox 4.0.1
Windows XP SP3 Up to date

try the 15 - 15 option, see in the above link you gave us :
http://mike.kaply.com/2012/02/21/understanding-add-on-scopes/
the : Add-ons are only disabled by default '''if they were not explicitly installed by the user'''. '''So if an external application places an add-on into the user’s profile directory, it is disabled by default'''.
(it is in extensions.autoDisableScopes area )

When I open firefox or try to open any website I get the Error 404 message stating page not found, how do I correct this?

When opening firefox the error 404 immediatly comes up and NO websites (bookmarked or not) will come up, the error 404 message repeatedly comes up. I have deleted and re-installed different firefox versions and nothing has worked yet. What else can I try?

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.
