Firefox won't open how can I reset or fix it if I cannot open Firefox?

Firefox worked fine yesterday, did not do any changes. Today it will not open at all. How can I reset or change anything if I cannot open the program. Please help. Also other browsers open fine. I am running window xp.

Firefox doesn't give any error message, it just stalls or never shows up?
If you haven't already, could you check the tips in this article: [[Firefox won't start - find solutions]].
If you want to try starting Firefox in its Safe Mode, you can hold down the Shift key while double-clicking the Firefox icon. You should get a small dialog with the choices of Safe Mode and Reset. I suggest trying Safe Mode first.

    How can I reset my security question and I cannot create a new account because I have £18 on the account that I can't remember the security questions to

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • The screen of my Ipod touch is black and won't respond, how can I reset it?

    I have an Ipod Touch 5th Gen. I still have one of the older IOS updates, but I'm not exactly sure which one. I went to go turn my Ipod on because the screen was completely black, and nothing happened. So I then plugged it in thinking it was dead. So a while later I tried to turn it on again and still nothing. Is there anyway I can reset it to get back into it? Please help!!
    Thanks ahead of time!

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Firefox is starting in the 32 bit mode it says Firefox*32.. How can i get rid of this?

    Firefox is starting in the 32 bit mode it says Firefox*32.. How can i get rid of this? Whenever i close Firefox and restart my computer it goes back to normal.There is also another problem associated with this which is that whenever Firefox is in 32 bit mod I listen to music the sound always comes unclear like clogged up.When i restart my computer its not 32 bit anymore the sound gets back to normal.I am using Windows 7.

    Hi,
    If 32-bit Firefox was installed, it will be always listed as such. If both 32-bit and 64-bit were installed, please make sure to start the correct one. Usually the 32-bit would be installed in '''Computer''' > '''?:\Program Files (x86)''' > '''Mozilla Firefox''', and the 64-bit in '''Computer''' > '''?:\Program Files'''. You can also type '''about:''' in the location bar and look in '''Build identifier:'''

  • How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?

    How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?
    I have seen this question asked previously and it seems there is no answer.
    I know that one can change each individual web page (that reset defaults back to 100%) and, alternatively and apparently one can load an add-on to fix the default size at Full Zoom.
    ... But any hints on how to achieve a DEFAULT 125% zoom would be much appreciated.

    Press CTRL + 0
    Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
    After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
    If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
    You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
    If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
    You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
    [[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
    [[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

  • I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the defaul for opening a project?

    I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the default for opening a project?

    scottypet
    For Premiere Elements 11 and 12, you cannot change its default project preset from NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or its PAL counterpart PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 to something else.
    For each project, you can set the project preset manually if you do not want the program to take over setting the project preset based
    on the properties of the first drag to the Timeline.
    To set the project preset manually, open the project to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
    In the Change Settings area, change the project preset. Before you exit that area, be sure to have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in the new project dialog.
    Then you import your source media, using the appropriate Add Media choice.
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
    If you want a version of Premiere Elements that uses the default project preset of NTSC DV Standard or its PAL counterpart PAL DV Standard, then you need to look to a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 11.
    Please let me know if you have any further questions on this or need clarification.
    Thank you.

  • How can I reset the open firmware password?

    I wanted to installed Mac OS X Lion from scratch on my newly purchased MBP 15,4"
    I put the installESD.dmg on a USB pendrive, then I boot on it. I used Disk utility to erase en encrypte my drive, and at the same time I set the Open firmware password.
    I launched the installation process, after a while the computer reboot but I got an error:
    there was a problem installing mac os x try reinstalling
    I google this error and found many people who solved this issue by erasing the PRAM using the shortcut: cmd + opt + P + R. I'm asked to enter the password which I did but it's still keeping asking for the password so I guess its wrong which is weird cause I typed it in few minutes ago, so I might have done twice a typing error or I don't know.
    So my question is how can I reset this password to be able to install my OS? (I cannot access to any OS cause the installation process failed).
    Thnak you for your help

    Yes I did use the disk utility to restore the dmg on my USB drive. The USB drive is perfectly fine, I can boot on it without any problem, well before setting this open firmware password I could do it.
    Now the situation is:
    No system installed,
    Lock with a password
    I have the disk to install SL but I cannot boot on the DVD because it is asking me for this password.

  • How can I get my wireless keyboard battery access to open. It's like the bloody thing has seized up and won't open?

    How can I get my wireless keyboard battery access to open. It's like the bloody thing has seized up and won't open? Tried the coin...nope.  Tried a screw driver...nope! Even tried WD-40 - nope! Or does this mean it's now in the boat anchor pile!

    They are designed for coins... is this your first time changing the battery? Make sure you are twisting in the right direction and make sure you are pushing down on it and applying pressure at the same time you turn.

  • How can I reset my IPad?  It won't take my code and it is the only one I know I have.

    How can I reset my IPad?  I've tried twice and had the passcode that I use to unlock my IPad rejected.  Should I be using my apple.com password?  I'm afraid to try again as it might lock the IPad.  I don't remember any other code.  My Wifi and 3G won't work.

    Your password for your Apple ID is not the same as the passcode for the screen lock on your iPad unless you set it that way deliberately, enabling the extra-long passcodes (the standard is a four-digit number). If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
