Firefox won't run after downloading says "File is Corrupt:

I currently use IE and want to switch to Firefox. I click download and run and wait for download to finish.. It says the Fi;e Is corrrupt and ends after the download is complete I have saved the Exec and tried to start it from there with the same results.

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
You may have to disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work or only the real-time (live) scanning of files.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

ITunes won't launch after upgrade - says files are missing

I had trouble upgrading to version 6 but disabled my anti virus software (McAfee) and the upgrade seemed to run OK. After restarting my computer iTunes won't run as it says files are missing and I need to install them. It was all working fine before. I have over 4200 tracks and I'm worried I've lost them although they are all still on my iPod. What do I do next? Please help.

Sorted! Panic over. I ran the download again and everythin seems OK.

Itunes won't run after download

itunes won't run after download. simply asks to acknowledge agreement which I did. help

You appear to be able to backup your contacts without iTunes. Google "backup iphone contacts without itunes".
The way to avoid having to get a tech person in is to get past the idea that your problem (which you still haven't defined) is "beyond my ability to fix". ;-)

Firefox won't install after downloading.

I recently was having troubles with Firefox, I was running Firefox Beta 18 - it started saying it could not update. So after repeat failed attempts, I figured I'd uninstall it and re-install a fresh version. It will download, I can find the file folder, but even when I try to run it as an administrator it won't open the installer. I downloaded three different versions, all do the same. I'm currently running Windows 8 and have had Firefox for over two years on Windows 7. When I upgraded to Windows 8 it transferred seamlessly with no problems. I'd like to be able to use Firefox again.

You can try booting the computer in Safe Mode with Network Support. This can be done by opening msconfig.
# Enter Desktop mode by pressing Windows Logo + D
# Windows Logo + R
# Type ''msconfig'' and press Enter
# Click on the ''Boot'' tab and choose Safe Mode with Network
# Click Apply/OK
Then restart your computer and it should automatically enter Safe Mode with Network Support. From there, find your installer and try running it again. When it's done, make sure to go back to msconfig and uncheck Safe Mode.
Finally, restart the computer.
Hope this helps!

Firefox won't let me download a file that I need to print a coupon

Hello Lisa.
You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

@acdeag - Same here w/ regards to Greasemonkey. I've also got trouble w/ the 1Password browser integration. I can't find much about it either. Extremely frustrating.

New itunes download says file is corrupt and to reinstall

I KNEW I shouldn't upgrade, but I've been getting the notice to upgrade my iTunes for so long I finally went ahead...Well, since I did it over an hour ago I've been getting pop ups (I mean like a hundred of them by now) telling me that the copy of iTunes is corrupt or installed incorrectly and to re-install it. I know NOTHING about all this stuff, but I imagine I'm getting that pop up every time it runs into what it considers a corrupt file.
I have music and covers that I've downloaded to computer then transfered them to my iPod (can you tell I know nothing? I suspect I'm using all the wrong words), PLUS tons and tons of pictures and videos and I'm pretty sure the videos, and even some pictures I've edited, are being considered to be corrupt. So it could be a huge number of files that it's seeing as corrupt.
I'm afraid to re-install iTunes, and I'm afraid to remove it for fear of losing my pictures and videos from my computer. Is that possible? The pictures and videos are in My Pictures on my computer.
The problem could also be the covers I've downloaded--through iTunes, mind you.
My questions, to boil it down, I think are:
What will I lose if I uninstall iTunes and reinstall it? Will I lose what's in my computer, or just what's been downloaded to the iPod?
How can I find which files are corrupt, and once (if) I find them, can I just remove them from iTunes but leave them on my computer?
I hope this all makes sense. If it doesn't, please ask me and I'll try to clarify. Really appreciate any help you can offer.

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?

I have a new MacBook Pro running 10.6.6 and firefox won't launch after downloading

I bought a new MacBookPro and the computer is running fine. I tried running firefox 3.6.12 or 3.6.15. They downloaded (via safari) fine but when I tried to open them (after the permission dialogue box), nothing happens and they fail to launch. All my other programs are running fine so I suspect it is a compatibility problem.
Please advise a solution.

Are you sure your Mac Book Pro has Thunderbolt (lightning symbol next to the port) and not Mini DisplayPort (rectangle symbol)?

I'm using Blackberry Tour 9630, v4.7.1.40, on Verizon service in the US.
