FireFox won't finish downloading/installing

I have been trying to download FireFox for the past two or three hours. I am using Windows XP Pro. A box pops up that says... "you're about to enjoy the very latest in speed," etc and near the bottom is a progress bar that has downloading/installing. These green bars scroll by like its trying to download and then they stop and the little green bars start one by one like it is finally downloading. On the last try, i had about 12-15 little green bars and then... they start scrolling again.... never making it over to the "install" part.... HELP!!! I have used Firefox on a previous computer but for the life of me I can't get it installed on this one.

Use the full version of the Firefox installer instead of the small stub that requires internet access.
Download and save the full Firefox installer to the desktop and start the installation with a double-click on the desktop icon.
You can find the full version of the current Firefox 26.0 release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:

    TRy to close itunes by double tapping the home button then slide up all of the open apps and try again.
    another option is to turn off your ipad, logout from your itunes account and try again downloading the movie. If it still gives you error, call apple support and ask for itunes agent to see if there is something wrong with the movie you are trying to download

    Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • HT201272 my movie won't finish downloading

    I just bought a movie through iTunes and it won't finish downloading on my iPad....anyone know why?

    Check your purchase history to be sure you have purchased it.
    You can click Store>Check for Available downloads to see if it is still waiting to download.
    If not, then report the issue. Apple should resolve in a day or less:

    If it doesn't finish downloading then just click Store>Check For Available Downloads
    There is no need to keep re-buying it.

  • When i buy a app it won't finish downloading

    When i buy a app it says installing but when i go to lanch pad it wont ever finish downloading heres a pick its in top right its bean like that for 3 days and yes i have wifi          

    Did you check if the orientation lock is activated? Double click the home button and bring up the multitask bar, swipe to the right until you see the play controls for music, right next to it is the lock icon for the orientation of the screen, tap on it to unlock. Close the task bar again by hitting the home button.

  • Firefox won't start after installing an update from Apple - what to do?

    I am not computer savvy. When I installed a recent update from Apple on my Mac. Firefox won't open. Safari wouldn't either, but an Apple tech led me through steps to fix it. He didn't know what to try for Firefox.
    == right after update was installed and Mac restarted ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10_4_11; en) AppleWebKit/533.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.1 Safari/533.16

    Then a  clear CMOS would be the next logical troubleshooting step.
    Here is  a link to your motherboard specifications.
    The information on clearing CMOS is at the bottom of the document.
    This is usually the last step before giving up on a motherboard.
    The problem you are facing is motherboard hardware firmware related.

  • Mavericks Won't Finish Download

    I've been trying to get OS X Mavericks to download on my 2013 iMac. When I go to the purchases page, it says it has 8 minutes remaining but that it failed to download. It's not on my launchpad at all and I can't figure out how to get it to finish downloading. I had no problems installing it on my Mac Air.
    Has anyone had the same problem and found a solution?

  • Movie won't finish downloading and won't go away!

    My daughter started a download of a movie and was planning on renting it for a single showing. The movie has never finished downloading and everytime my ITunes syncs up when I start the computer, the downloading resumes and then I get an error message. I really don't want this movie anymore and I have tried to delete it, but it always seems to come back. How do I kill it once and for all.

    Try reset your iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

  • The ipod won't finish downloading updates.

    I am having trouble getting my ipod's (2 of them) and my iphone getting updates.  Here is the problem.  I connect them, click to update.  The computer says 4+ hrs to finish download.   All is well but it seems to stop when the computer goes to sleep.  As long as I messing on the computer, it all goes according to plan.  This happens to the phone and to each of the ipods so it has to be me doing something wrong.  The same thing happned when trying to restore an ipod.  It started and says going to take long hours.  Leave it alone and it just fizzes out.  What am I doing wrong??  Thanks!!!

  • Need help with an app that won't finish downloading to my iPhone 5s

    This app will neither finish downloading, nor will it delete. The app is called Google Translate. please help me. Thank you all in advance.

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Appel logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
