FIREFOX WONT DOWNLOAD

FIREFOX WONT DOWNLOAD. IHAVE WINDOWS XP PRO OPERATING SYSTEM. I REMOVED A PREVIOUS VERSION OF MOZILLA, BUT I CAN'T GET A NEW CLEAN DOWNLOAD TO START.

Check that you are using an admin account and not a limited account. If your caps lock has jammed it may be difficult to login.
Try to make sure no unnecessary applications are running when you attempt to upgrade, and also ensure Firefox itself is properly closed and has ceased,
Also say what security software software and firewalls you are using, maybe that is blocking downloads or changes to the computer. For more ideas and solutions have a read of the articles
*[[software update failed]]
*[[installing firefox on windows]]
( I am assuming you have succeeded in downloading and then finding on your computer the Firefox install file )

Firefox wont download the update?

You keep offering this up grade but it wont upload?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

Firefox wont download on my Mac Mini

I'm new to my Mini Mac, but not to firefox. But firefox will not download. What am I doing wrong?

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

hello, there's a general regression in firefox 27 that won't allow files to download directly into a root drive. please try to create a subfolder (like ''E:\Downloads'') and set this as default location for downloads...

Firefox wont load any flash player or let me download anything

Firefox wont load any flash player videos and when it does it only buffers so far. I can't download anything like anti-mal/spyware to check if its anything like that.

Try to boot the computer in Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.
Do you have access to another computer to download the anti-mal/spyware programs and put them on a USB stick with the latest updates or their databases?
You can also try to download them via sites like FileHippo.

Norton antivirus wont allow firefox to download because it says it's "adware", can the lenovo ideapad download firefox?

I have a 2003 Lenovo Ideapad run by windows 7 and it wont download firefox. When I click download it asks me if I want to run or save I click run. Then Norton antivirus prevents it from downloading because it says it's "adware". How do I get past this problem??? Thank you for any help it is very much appreciated!

If you are downloading Firefox from [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/features/ Mozilla.org], this download is safe. You can disable your antivirus for the download process.

Trying to download Covenant Eyes & firefox wont let it happen. Please help.

A year ago we downloaded the program from covenanteyes.com using Vista and Firefox. All went well for months.
Since then, our laptop crashed (unrelated reason). All lost.
Started fresh with Windows 7. We are wanting to install Covenant Eyes on new system. Firefox wont let it download. Tried & tried. Covenant Eyes TS says they have seen a lot of this lately & that Firefox is looking at it as spam & blocking it without notice to customer.
My question... Is there any way to inform Firefox so they can stop this & see it as a legit program? We thank you.

Could you describe where the process breaks down? After you sign up, you click a download button, and then... Firefox never displays the dialog to Save or Cancel? Or Firefox appears to be downloading it, but when you go to access the file, it isn't there?
Can you download the program using Internet Explorer? It appears to be a single download that works on all your browsers, so if the solution isn't obvious, you might try that.

Firefox wont load and when I tried downloading firefox 4 it said the program was already in use

I don't have any more details than the fact that I cannot replace my malfunctioning browser with firefox 4. I think the old one was upgrading and then I told it not now and messed it up.

Your system details just say "leopard" Are you running Mac 10.5 (Leopard) on a PPC Mac or an Intel Mac? Firefox 4 requires Mac OS 10.5 (or above) and an Intel processor.
'''If you are on an Intel Mac:''' 
Restart the computer and start Firefox . Does it work now? If not, then:
#Open the Application folder in Finder
#Drag Firefox.app into the Trash (or to a backup location, if you prefer)
#Use Safari or another browser to re-download Firefox 4 from www.mozilla.com
# Install Firefox 4. See [[Installing Firefox on Mac]] for details.
'''If you are on a PPC Mac:''' 
Do the above but, instead of downloading Firefox 4, download and install Firefox 3.6 from www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older.html

Firefox wont open and i can't uninstall it from the control panel

firefox wont open and i can't uninstall it from control panel.When i try to open it i get a message saying "windows cannot access you may not have appropiate permission to access" Have tried to download firefox hoping would clear the old one also tried to open the uninstall wizard by pressing windows key and r but no joy with anything

Hi,
If it was installed as a Firefox extension you can try to '''Remove''' it in Firefox '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Extensions'''.

[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Customizing%20Firefox%20with%20add-ons Customizing Firefox]
On the other hand, if it was installed as a Windows application or Internet Explorer application, you may have to uninstall it via the Windows OS Control Panel, or via the browsers concerned. The [http://answers.microsoft.com/ Windows support] would be helpful.

Q: i have recently aquired an iPhone 3GS and need iTunes do activate it.But iTunes wont download onto my computer

Q: i have recently aquired an iPhone 3GS and need iTunes do activate it.But iTunes wont download onto my computer. I am running Windows Vista Service Pack 2. Please HELP!!

I'd first try experimenting with a different browser. If you've been using IE for the download, try Firefox instead (or vice versa).
If no luck there, there's some other suggestions in the following document. (You're not getting the error message, but your problem here falls into the same general class of download trouble.)
iTunes: Windows reports that "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

ITunes stopped working,C++ library error, removed iTunes, now iTunes wont download

Have been using iTunes for years on laptop with windows vista (32 bit). recently started getting itunes errors such as C++ runtime library error and R6034 error. Itunes stopped working. Read the boards, I deleted itunes and other products from the trouble shooting directions (e.g., bonjour, mobile me etc), and tried to download itunes again. now itunes wont download (I have 20 MB/140MB available memory). stuck at this point - Itunes not on laptop, but cant download new itunes.....

Sorry for the delay. Tried running the fixit program (1 time via internet explorer, 1 time via firefox), the firefox attempt downloaded the fixit program, but when trying to run it I get a pop up window that indicates that the troubleshooter is not available and that the fixit program is invalid or has expired and a new website is given for the new program (same happened with the internet exploere attempt- it directed me to the same window and to the same website)......the website is:
http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/
there are several buttons to choose from and reviewed them- I found the uninstall fix that you described in the windows button. I tried to download and run the fix from both internet explorer and firefox, however after downloading, when i run the program I eventually get the same window that says that the troubleshooter is not available......
