FireFox will NOT load dependably. One day it loads, although barely, the next day it will not load at all [like today].

See the question/statement.
FireFox, for a number of months now, will not load two days in a row. One day it might load, then next it will not. This has been going on for way too long.
I do NOT like having to use MS Explorer.
Can yu please fix YOUR software?
Regards,
Doug Mercer

You could try the new Reset feature. This duplicates certain key data from your active settings folder into a new one, bypassing some add-ons and custom settings. Your plugins will still be active, but could be disabled manually if you like.
More information in this article: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]].
If the new settings folder has the same problem, you can switch back to your current folder, if you like, using Firefox's Profile Manager. (See [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]] -- don't delete anything just yet; use this dialog to switch back and forth as needed.)
Does it work better after a reset?

Suddenly I cannot print from firefox. It was printing one day and would not communicate with the printer the next.

Suddenly I cannot print any web pages from Firefox. It was printing one day and not communicating with the printer the next. Did not happen with an upgrade to Firefox or plugins. Printer dialog came up but nothing sent to printer.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== suddenly- no known reason

I cannot print from Firefox either all of a sudden. Maybe first thing in the AM, it will print something but then, that's it. I am running OX 10.5 too and using Firefox 3.6.8. I am ready to stop using this!! I like it but it is frustrating. I am on my mac all day for work and cannot find a solution to this Firefox problelm. Maybe Mozilla can help me. Anyone have any answers? I use a HP Laserjet 2300L.
Thanks.

Abdussalam.A,
you mentioned that Terminal does not work at all for your MacBook Pro. What currently happens when you run Terminal? In what way does it not work?

Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider. When the logo appears let go of the buttons.

Mozilla or firefox quits 10.3 after one day of installation

I tried to install mozilla on my ibook 10.3.9 and after one day it starts quiting. I deleted the fist one and it still quits.
I did permission repair, macgenitor and removed all the files by locating them with the command apple F before reinstalling.
thank you.
both: imac and ibook Mac OS X (10.3.8)

Which version of FireFox? If it's not 1.5.0.6 then download and install that version.
Close down FireFox and search your hard drive for the following and then delete and empty the trash:
- org.mozilla.firefox.plist
- Firefox (only the one in Caches! Only delete the ones in Application Support and Applications if you want to reinstall FireFox again)
Restart Firefox. Does it still crash? If so when? Do you get any error message? Can you surf in Firefox at all? Is it just certain sites that it crashes on? If so then post a URL we can test. Do other browsers (eg. Safari) work OK? Are you having problems with any other applications? Have you installed any extensions in FireFox? If so then update them and deinstall those that appear to be incompatible. Deinstall all of them if you still have problems.
There should be a crash log somewhere: open the Console application and press the Logs button. Look under ~/Library/CrashReporter and/or /Library/CrashReporter. The data will probably not be understandable, but there's a chance that something is immediately obvious - maybe a 'file missing' or similar? You can post the contents here if you don't understand anything.
It occurs to me that it might be a Java problem - especially if only certain sites appear to be affected. And you have problems with other applications. I seem to be OK, but others apparently have had a problem with a Java update, see: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301380

Firefox does not open at all and crashes. What is wrong?

Up until recently Firefox was working fine. When I try to open Firefox no window opens, no page loads, all I get it the crash reporter telling me that Firefox had a problem and crashed. I have un-installed and re-installed Firefox once thinking this would help. It didn't. The only thing I can think of is that it might be my Norton software. Even then I had Norton before Firefox started crashing.

Firefox does not open at all! Troubleshooting solutions do not work.

My operating system is Windows XP. Firefox installed a new update two days ago. It caused Firefox to crash repeatedly and was a pain in the bum, but seemed to sort itself out after three restarts and a lot of frustration.
Turned my computer on again today (two days later) and when I double click Firefox, the egg timer shows for about two seconds, but the program doesn't open. Neither will it open if I right click and select Run, or if I open it from the Start menu.
I've restarted my computer, that has made no difference.
I started to copy my profile information and make a new profile, as the troubleshooting guide suggested. However, when I get to the point where you run the Firefox Executable file, I get an error message apologising for Firefox crashing, and offering to report the problem to Mozilla. This has happened three times.
I can't reset Firefox, because it doesn't open.
Apparently uninstalling and reinstalling won't help, and I don't want to lose my bookmarks. Any suggestions?
Thansks!

Firefox does not open at all since I updated to version 3.6.4, not even when I re-download it.

Firefox crashes (does not open at all) since I updated to version 3.6.4. Not even when I re-downloaded it several times. Now, even the old version doesn't start. I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.4. It doesn't show that pop up window that explains why it crashed. It just stops and quits.

Can I get rid of 36? It installed an update and now firefox does not work at all

firefox 36 is seriously broken
It updated on my computer and now does not work at all. I've tried all the suggestions and no help.....going back to IE

Hi wskossack, I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with Firefox 36. I am also sorry that we have not been able to get that working for you yet.
If what you really want is to uninstall Firefox we can do that. Of course I have to ask if you would be willing to let my help you to get the most up to date version of Firefox working. But, Firefox is all about the ability to customize. If you want we can install the last version of Firefox and you can use that until the next version comes out or while we work to get Firefox 36 working for you. I will try to cover every option in my reply.
First I will cover uninstalling Firefox. If you want to look at the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer|article click here]] this can be done in about 7 steps
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Firefox and install it again. This will most likely fix any problems you have right now. Because you are asking how to do this I am going to assume that you have not tried this.
If you have Vista or Windows 7:
1) close any open Firefox windows.
2) from the start menu click on control panel
3) click on uninstall a program
4) from this list chose Firefox
5) click on uninstall (this is located turds the top)
If the Uninstall Wizard does not run, you can start it manually by running helper.exe, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
6) in the Firefox uninstall wizard click next and on the next page click uninstall then click finish
7) to remove other files and folders that may not be removed by the uninstall, you must manually delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
The uninstaller does not remove any user data such as history or bookmarks. To completely remove this data, you must manually delete the Firefox folder containing your user profile:
Click the Windows Start button.
Type %APPDATA% in the search field and press enter to open the hidden Roaming folder.
Open the Mozilla folder
Delete the Firefox folder.
Now I am going to go over how to get the last version of Firefox installed on your computer. If you want to look at the [[Install an older version of Firefox|article click here]] . If you decide that this is what you want to do please look at the article for some impotent security information.
Firefox 35.0.1 was the last version of Firefox and you can get it by [https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/35.0.1/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%2035.0.1.exe clicking here] . The link is also in the article. If you do this you will have to disable the auto update. To do this go to options, then go to advance. Under advance there will be a sub tab. You want to go to update. Then you can select to never check or to have it tell you when there is an update.
So the only thing left is for me to help you with any problems you are having with Firefox 36. I hope you will give me a chance. In any case, if you need any more information or help with anything that I went over please let me know.
