Firefox will not open in browser but will on iPad
I have a good signal to the router and iPad works well. The PC will not open any browser (Firefox, explorer internet), and Thunderbird opens but will not connect and times out.
So I cannot reinstall Firefox or Thunderbird. I can get messages on my iPad but not the PC.
I have scanned the PC and have no virus or malware.
Any ideas of what to do next please?
You weren't very clear about what you are trying to do, but there is no Firefox for iOS devices - iPad and the iPhone.
You can download Firefox for PC's and MacOSX computers / laptops here:

Will not open email links, but will when closed?
Using MS Office 2011 for Mac: Outlook links will not open in Firefox even though Firefox is running in the background - clicking on the link brings Firefox to the forefront, but it doesn't actually do anything.
However, if I quit Firefox then the Outlook link will open? Firefox is my default browser.
Cheers,
Alansudo mv /usr/bin/firefox /usr/bin/firefox_old; sudo ln -s /usr/bin/firefox-4.0 /usr/bin/firefox
installed this in terminal and it works now. -
PS CS6 will not open new files, but will re-open old ones
For no apparent reason, and all of a sudden, PS CS6 on this PC will not open any previously unopened psd files. It will open them if I've opened them before. Running win7, have all the latest drivers, versions, etc, including the latest video drivers. Same files will open on my laptop with CS6 no problem. Also files open in CS5 no problem. I did the ctrl+shift+alt deal to reset PS, no help. Any ideas other than reinstall the suite? Is there a way to just reinstall PS?
Thanks,
RayThe system info follows. The only change I've made was switching the gpu mode from "advanced" to "normal". It functions this way, but not when set to advanced.

I get dialogue box with "0% extraction" then nothing also cannot get Opera to install. The installation stalls at the same point of extracting the download. The only browser to work is IE8. I think it is more a Java problem as everything worked Ok until I took a Java upgrade.

I Just bought iMovie for yosmite and the program will not open.. I will like a fix or a refund.. i am getting tired of these problems...
Welcome to the world of downloaded software. There are no refunds.
Back in the good old days when software was purchased on disk one could sell it (legally).
Please describe your problem. Give us some details to go from. Are you using iMovie 06, or something newer? -

Bookmarked PDF's will not open in browser window
I just got the latest FF 3.6.6 and installed Nitro from Adobe so that I could open PDF's in the browser. Before upgrading, I could bookmark a PDF and it would still open it in the window. Now it wants to save it. How do I fix this? I bookmark a lot of PDF's because I don't want to save them on my computer, and I use them over and over for my writing.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to 3.6 and got Nitro add on1. Nitro is NOT an Adobe product.
2. It is an alternative to Adobe Acrobat.
3.It currently does not have the ability to display in a browser tab; see 3rd item below.
<u>Company's web site</u>: http://www.nitroreader.com/
<u>User forum</u> (click "Help" at the top of the Company's web site): http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf?from_gsfn=true
<u>User forum thread; no in-browser display</u>: http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf/topics/launching_pdfs_in_the_browser_window
You should be able to open PDF files from the internet directly in a separate Nitro window (not a tab in Firefox) if you change your settings on the Application panel (Tools > Options > Applications for "...PDF Document" content type(s). Read the following 2 articles carefully:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+file+types
http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
<u>The PDF file will NOT open within Firefox because no browser plugin is provided by the company, but instead</u> will open the Nitro program in a separate window and display the PDF there.
Somewhat general instructions; I do not have Nitro, so I am guessing at some names and locations on your hard drive and what you will see on the Applications panel. In the Applications panel, use the pull down arrow (see step 4 in the above article, Managing File Types), click "Use Other".
-If Nitro <u>IS on the pop-up list</u>, click on Nitro, click OK.
-If Nitro is NOT on the pop-up list, click Browse, go to your installation folder for Nitro (probably on C: drive in your Programs folder), open the Nitro folder, double-click on the executable that will open the Nitro program; nitro.exe/nitroreader.exe (whatever the file is named; you might want to find and open the Nitro program before you begin the process to know the exact executable file name to double-click). -
PDFs will not open in Browser with Adobe Reader 9
I am using Vista Ultimate x64 (SP1) using IE7. I am using the 32-bit version of the browser. I have selected "Display PDF in browser" on the Internet settings tab of the Adobe Reader 9.
Every time I select a PDF document, it forces me to save the document to the hard drive and open it from the hard drive. It will not open the PDF in the browser. How do I fix this problem??
The above procedure did work in Windows XP (32-bit), but does not appear to work in Vista (64-bit).I have a similar problem using Adobe Reader 9 with Vista 64. I am also using the 32 bit version of IE7. Every time I click on a pdf to open in IE7 the screen remains white without starting Adobe Reader 9 in IE7 browser window.
Using Adobe Reader independantly works without any problem. Only the IE7 plugin does not seem to work. I reinstalled Adobe Reader 9 but without any effect. Adobe Reader 8 works. How comes? -
Will not open comic strips but does open political cartoons
Safari v5.1 has one problem; When opening MSNBC.com it will open political cartoons and other graphics OK, but will not open the comics section. Firefox has no problems with that, so I assume that the problem is within safari.
Nope, but it worked for years up to about a month ago. It should work, and it doesn't.

Bridge CS5 will not open camera raw - but hangs!!
Just installed CS 5 web premium upgrade from CS4 web P - but Bridge CS5 will not open camera raw - it hangs!! - but camera raw can open via Photoshop ext. 64 bit on my Windows 7 pc.
Whats wrong???
Bent MedvindIn that case I would try resetting Bridge preferences by holding down Ctrl as you start Bridge.
Before that, ensure that there isn't a hidden copy of Bridge running under Task Manager > Processes. -
InfoPath 2013 form will not open in browser
Greetings All,
I have a scenario where I have created a InfoPath 2013 form and it will not open in the browser; it always opens it in the rich InfoPath client.
The only thing I have done differently here is to apply a content type, from the content type hub, to the form library. I am doing this because I was to reference the same content type in a records center; which would allow me to easily move instances
of the form data file to a records library.
When I exclude the whole custom content type thing, the form publishes and can be opened in the browser without issue.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance...Hi Bob, at the risk of sounding too obvious, do you have your library set to open documents in the browser, and in the InfoPath settings?
cameron rautmann
Hi Cameron,
Yes, it is. What I have been able to determine is; there is something special about the Form content type. If I create my own content type, derived from From, it won't work. Very weird.

Safari 4.1.1 Will Not Open a Browser Window
When I open Safari it loads but no window appears. I've done all the things that this forum has told me to do including clearing the cache, resetting safari, and deleting the Webpageicons.db file. Still it will not open a window. If I try to open a bookmark it crashes.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
We're other Mac users here, asking questions and sharing solutions.
Your problem may be with the Community Toolbar.
It's a terrible app/plugin that messes up Macs like the plague.
Did you ever install a customized toolbar? Like a Facebook one? Or for watching sports?
Here's how to search and destroy:
Close Safari.
Check here for CT Loader
Locate and delete:
HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
It may not be in every single location, but get it out where ever you find it.
Restart Safari. Any Better? -

Safari will not open bookmark pages (nor will it post question!)9th time
Ok. I interrupted someone elses thread - partly I think because of the problem I am having it self in that it was - grab the page while you can! Any page.. and type like mad quick before it changes it's mind.
The problem - I recently got wire free netgear. Safari was working fine. In fact better than on my previous lap which would quite often tell me I was using an "unsupported browser".
Over the last few days Safari often refuses to open bookmarks and also sometimes headings on a web page e.g. after getting to the Apple page "Support" "Discussion".
So to get the pages I want I go to Google(if it decides to open my bookmark google) and try and re find bookmarks that it was opening perfectly well previously.
It tells me it cannot open the page as I am not connected to the internet. The internet connect is showing me that I am connected and when I go through diagnosis it often tells me that the internet connection seems to be working ok. But safari still will not open the page and is teling me I am not connected and so I go around in circles - and eventual open Opera in desperation which seems to work fine.
Having said all that Opera then started doing the same. I have contacted my broadband and they say that some people are experiencing problems with their emails at the moment. So I'm not sure now whether it is a bug in my browsers or a server problem or something else. It doesn't seem SO bad today but it is still a problem. Any ideas for a solution very grateful.Gawd, how have you managed not to update it?! The current version is Version 3.1.2 (4525.22)!
Small wonder it won't work with 10.4.11.
Have you ever used Software Updater to check whether there are any updates available for your Mac?
I would recommend that you download the latest version from here:
http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
But please make sure that you download the version for Tiger and not for Leopard.
BUT before you do so, and before you install it, please go through the following routine:
Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two.
Background information here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
and here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck

If all is OK, install the new Safari, and REBOOT, then repair permissions again.
