when I try to open the install program for firefox I get error Windows can not file Programs\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe

Sounds quite weird that you can't open profile manager or launch the official Mozilla installer. Probably try to reboot, and to scan for malware?

  • Can not find file: oradim80.exe

    On Linux how to make a Instance,I can not find:oradim80.exe,and
    second why I can not use "oracle database assistant on WINNT"
    null

    oradim80 is a winnt admin utility only. Its purpose is
    to create/modify/delete oracle services and to provide
    the ability for the service to start the database, although
    you can run oradim80 at the command line to start the db. Given
    this purpose it is understandable why linux/unix does not provide
    the oradim utility.
    As far database assistant is concerned I have found that you can
    use the winnt utility to create batch files that can be run in
    the unix/linux environment. You will however, have to edit these
    files and change the directory paths. The utility insists that
    the path convention conform to dos standards. You may also have
    to change the sid name if the name you choose conflicts with a
    sid already on your winnt platform. Oh, don't forget the oratab
    modification.
    I am currently testing the linux non enterprise version of O8. I
    do not know if the enterprise edition has the database assistant
    utility. These gui tools can become addictive, it would be nice
    if oracle would incorporate the database assistant into
    enterprise manager so that you can not only monitor existing db's
    but also create them as well.

  • Windows can not find ' FILE ': error.

    I have downloaded and installed the production version of SQL Developer. (1.0.0.14.67)
    Windows XP SP 2.
    When I started it for the first time I checked all the file association check boxes.
    If I double click on a .sql file the following windows error occurs:
    Windows can not find '<file>'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To Search for a file, click the Start button, and then click search.
    SQL Developer does startup. The error message is closed when the OK button is selected.
    Any Ideas?
    Regards;
    Robert

    Hi Robert,
    Just to confirm, SQL Developer does actually open the file. The only issue is the error message displayed. I have logged a bug for that.
    There is a work around until that is sorted. If you use explorer to associate the file types with SQL Developer, they open without this error.
    Regards

  • CTRL F (Search) opens but will not find content on the active webpage.

    I often use the Search function (CTRL F) on webpages to search for content. Since upgrading to version 31.0 it no longer works. It opens but will not find anything.

    Make sure that "Match case" on the Find bar doesn't have a tick.

  • Windows 8 Recovery USB causes UEFI error: "Grub error: Can't find gpt 7" [FIXED]

    Hello everyone,
    Here is my situation.  I had a dual boot setup on my toshiba S855D (Win 8/Ubuntu 12.10).  After a few months my win 8 install was giving me strange errors.  I decided to do a full reinstall using the recovery USB I made. (I had reinstalled once before)  When I plugged in my USB after restarting the computer (in USB as first boot), I got the error: 'Grub error. Can't find gpt 7' If I tuned off UEFI, the computer could at least detect the USB but not do a reinstall.  Thinking it was a Grub error I formatted the HD (using an ubuntu liveUSB).  The problem persisted. I installed boot-repair on ubuntu and tried that, but no effect.  I have tried to install an updated bios from the CD image in the bios zip, but it wouldn't execute the commands in the ini file.  I even tried to install an old xp disk I had to see if I could install the bios update that way, but the windows install  repeatedly froze.
    Quick version: dual boot (win8/ubuntu)->try to reinstall win8, "error: Grub Error: Can't find gpt 7", when usb is attempted to be booted from. ->Wiped hdd, but problem persisted. -> tried many ways to fix, but nothing works.
    I have been reading many forums for the past few days, and nothing looks to work.  Any and all help would be really helpful.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I finally got it!
    After much poking around the internet, I was finally able to identify my problem.  My bootx64.efi in the EFI/Boot folder wasn't working.  I found this out by putting UEFI shell on another usb and using that to test my *.uefi files.  Thankfully, I had a backup of my EFI folder from my initial Ubuntu install.  This had a backup made my ubuntu. (bkpbootx64.uefi) I ran the backup and the USB worked!  
    On another forum someone (Agent268) said this, which may help.  I'm guessing you need to have a windows pe DVD/USB to make this work though. 
    "You should be able to use DISM to manually reimage this bad boy using the WIM or SWMs on that USB recovery flash drive."
    Hope my research helps someone out there.  Cheers to everyone who looked.

  • Search field in Open dialog will not find pages documents but will find identical Microsoft word documents

    This is a new one. Problem seen on iMac and Mac Pro.
    1) Create a new Pages document (newest version).
    2) Save to the Desktop
    3) Export as MS Word document with the same identical name
    4) Close the Pages documents
    5) Quit Pages
    6) Open Pages
    7) Choose File : Open
    8) In the search field in the upper right corner of Open dialog. Enter the name of the document just saved.
    9) Only the MS Word document is listed. the Pages document is not shown, even when Filename contains is selected
    If anyone knows how to fix this problem. please comment on this request.
    thanks

    thanks for testing. I do realize that the two test files will show up in the Open dialog as it opens to the Desktop folder. But what happens if it opens up in another folder and you need to locate a Pages file where you don't know the location, you remember the name. You would go to the search field in the upper right corner of the Open dialog and enter the name. In the Open dialog, the name would be listed and you can choose the one to open. In my tests, the search field would only show the MS Word document, not the Pages i.e. only one would be listed not two. Also, Filenames is an option that does appear in the search field in the Pages Open dialog.
    The examples files I created are called "This is a test". The content of the file is "This is a test" (without the quotes in both). the search field in the Open dialog is suppose to locate the text in the documents if enclosed in quotes which it does for the Word document but still will not find the pages document. You can click Filenames while entering in the search field and the same occurs, only locates the Word doc, not the Pages doc.
    thanks again

  • The Firefox find function seems to have become CAPS or non-caps specific, so that typing a word in non-caps will not find matching words with one or more capital letter.

    The find function seems to have changed in Firefox. Before, when doing a (CTRL + F) find, the search was not CAPS-specific or non-caps-specific. In other words, if I typed in "firefox" (no caps), it would find the words "firefox", Firefox", or "FIREFOX", regardless of capitalization. Now, however, the find function will only match the exact same capitalization. This totally undermines the usefulness of the function, and is a major hassle. Please fix it.

  • Lightroom 6 Develope Module will not load files, can't see photos.

    Lightroom Develop Module will not show files. I can see photos in library, film strip. I'm fully paid member of adobe cloud and registered. I've signed out and in again but this did not resolve the issue. The problem happened after moving from lightroom 5.7 to 6. All worked OK in 5.7, using canon 5D mark 2 CR2 files version 2.2. I have photoshop 2015 CC and when I go to camera raw ( version 9 ) The photos do not show here as well. Both are blue boxes with an X across the page just like in the Develop Module in Lightroom 6. Again files could be seen in ACR photoshop 2014. As am using the latest updates of lightroom and photoshop creative Cloud, not sure why I can't see files in the develop module in lightroom and in camera raw in photoshop ?
    By Michael.

    I'm no expert on GPUs and graphics cards, so I suggest you read this thread:
    GPU notes for Lightroom CC (2015)
    My impression. though, is that most people don't experience a huge speed improvement using the GPU, myself included.
    But this will probably change in future versions, at the moment only certain functions in the Develop module use the GPU.
    As for differences in GPU support between Photosop and LR, I assume that PS supports older and less powerful GPUs than Lightroom does.
    Edit: But the bottom line is that LR doesn't support GPU acceleration with you graphics card, so leave it off.

    Hey,
    if you know the name(s) of the root folder(s) you want to access (eg. by making a note on the Windows side) then you can make them appear by just doing Shift-Command-G in Finder ("Go to Folder…"), and entering the full path to the required folders.  You can then navigate all the contents as normal.

    Photos 10.10.3 will not let me play or move my videos and keeps sending a message saying "can not find file". What do I do to get the videos back? It is only during videos that I previously uploaded off my phone. It loads them and tells me how long they are but when I go to press play it says can not find file. I have restarted my computer, what else can I do?

    Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
    In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
    Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
    What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem.
