Firefox won't open localhost files, it downloads the file instead and then won't show images, IE9 localhost works fine.

I have installed XAMPP to preview web pages locally. Everything works fine in IE9 but not in Firefox. When I load a localhost page Firefox downloads the file, then displays the downloaded file without showing images within the page.
So, in IE9 the address bar looks like this (correctly): http://localhost/my_sites/WebMaestro/Exercises/Lesson8/changeImage.html
In Firefox the address bar looks like this: file:///C:/Users/Rog/AppData/Local/Temp/changeImage-3.html

Are you using a Firefox extension like '''Auto Save Document ''' ? If you are using then you need to disable it. The documents are stored as html-text only (no embedded objects like pictures etc.) As a result the images don't appear on browser.

  • Firefox 3.6 won't open, it comes up in the task manager and then disappears after about 3 seconds

    Firefox 3.6 will not open, I have noticed that it loads in the task manager in windows vista 32 bit, after 3 seconds it then disappears and won't open, I have reinstalled firefox, all this did was to loose all my passwords and bookmarks, I have disabled my anti virus which is kaspersky internet security 2011, firefox still won't open, I have uninstalled various programmes and that does not work and I have loaded my laptop into safe mode and firefox still won't open,
    if anyone can help then it will be most appreciated because I am so frustrated, everything I do seems not to work with firefox, yet my other browser which is safari works every time, there was only a problem with firefox 3 days ago, I have been using firefox for over 1 and half years with no problems, I have also have scanned my pc for viruses but this has not solved the problem.

    Do any of the possible causes listed at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+hangs#Hang_at_exit fit?
    Your Firefox settings and info are kept in a folder separate from the Firefox program, called your profile folder. Try creating a test profile, to see if the problem still occurs. See [[Managing profiles]]

    Thanks for the reply with additional information.
    Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
    being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
    that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
    to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
    Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
    But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
    Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
    version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
    a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
    b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
    driver version roll back.
    Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
    Thanks.

    Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
    later versions of Premiere Elements.

    OK, then I'd suggest you ask for assistance in the iPhoto forum:

    This isn't an iTunes Store issue, so this isn't the forum where you'll be most likey to get help.

    Why not? We can not see you so you have to give us details
    Did you run the iPhoto Library upgrader after you installed it - if not backup your iphoto library and go to the utilities folder in your Applications folder and double click on the iphoto library upgrader and RUN i - then launch iphoto 9.6 to complete the upgrade

  • When opening in filled PDF form, the data flashes and then blanks.  Adobe  Reader XI

    When opening in filled PDF form, the data flashes and then blanks.  Adobe  Reader XI
    I filled in this form with important data.  And saved it.  I have since opened it and printed it again.  Now when I open it the fields become blank  I can see them for a split second as it clears them.
    I believe I have updated to Reader XI since I filled it in.

    Hi Pat,
    Are you using Adobe Reader XI? And not Acrobat. It does not ask me to save the form if there are unsaved changes.
    I have used previous versions of reader for saving this form data and it did allow me to save it with ctrl+s. And those versions did prompt me to save the changes before closing.
    I guess I should not have updated the reader.

    - 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.

  • Help Firefox will not "open containing folder" for downloaded .rar files

    I have to open a file that is in my FF downloads but none of the .RAR files will open the containing folder. I have quite a few .rar files none of them will open. Windows 7 PC

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • 1.5.6 library won't open now that I download the 2.0 trial

    I downloaded the 2.0 trial when it came out and put a few files in it to play around with. I left the 1.5.6 application on the computer since the 2.0 trial wouldn't allow me to use the 1.5.6 library. I would drag the 1.5.6 library onto the 1.5.6 application in the dock, however, though I used the 1.5.6 library with 1.5.6 earlier today I can not now load it in 1.5.6. A little popup comes up and tells me that i can't use it because it is a newer library, yet if I try to load it in 2.0 it won't let me update the library.
    I NEED the 1.5.6 library as it houses all my photos. My vault is on another drive, one ironically that I can not get to at the moment (location redundancy).
    What can I do?

    I retained Aperture 1.5.6 when I activated Aperture 2.0, too. I renamed the older version by adding the version number.
    When I double-click on the icon for either version of Aperture it attempts to open the last library that was used by either version. I get around the problem by right-clicking (or Ctrl-clicking) on the library icon instead, then choosing which version of Aperture to use from the dropdown menu.

  • Firefox won't start. The program is running in the task manager processes, but the application won't open. I have restarted the computer, uninstalled and reinstalled, now I am lost!!!

    I have a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop running Windows Vista Home edition. Firefox was working properly just as it has for years. All of a sudden when you click on the icon, nothing appears. I open task manager, no applications show. I go to processes, there is firefox32. I kill the process and start over...endless loop. I shut the computer down and restarted. Same issue. I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled, same issue. I idon't know what else to try.

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
