Firefox wont start. Gives error: The procedure entry point PL_ClearArenaPod could not be located in plds4.dll

Complete text of error message when attempting to start Firefox.
The procedure entry point PL_Clear ArenaPod could not be located in the dynamic link library plds4.dll
Firefox never opens before or after the error message.
After I close the error message window, I also get message from ZoneAlarm (my security software) asking me to send them an error report.
I had just accepted an automatic update from Firefox prior to the problems occurring.

Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that 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.
You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

HT203175 Why won't iTunes install properly? It gives the start up error "The procedure entry point JSStringGetUTF8String could not be located in the dynamic link library WebKit.dll"

I can't get iTunes to install/start on my HP laptop. When I start/install the current version, I get the following error "The procedure entry point "JSStringGetUTF8String could not be located in the dynamic link library WebKit.dll". Why isn't this dll included in the distribution? What do I do to get iTunes to install on my 64-bit AMD HP laptop.

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".
Does iTunes launch properly now?
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

I have Windows Vista computer. I am trying to upgrade my ITunes so can share files with other home computer. (Just got the new IPhone). I get this system error: The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerItemDurationChangedNotification could not be located in the dynamic link library AVFoundationCF.dll. Tries system restore and redownloaded...NOW Itunes will not even open. Can anyone help?

I uninstalled Apple Application Support, opened iTunesSetup with WinRar, and went down the list of msi's. AppleApplicationSupport was an install, all the others I did Repair. Did not have to reboot. Works okay now.

Getting Error-- "The procedure entry point _UP_GetActiveTreeCell could not be located in the dynamic link library cvirte.dll" on host machine.

I am trying to build an executible program that will be portable to machines which do not have CVI installed. It works fine on my CVI v9.1 system. However, whether or not I include "Full run-time support" in the build options, I get the error "The procedure entry point _UP_GetActiveTreeCell could not be located in the dynamic link library cvirte.dll" when I try to run it on a machine without CVI. Please help.

To run a CVI application on a system were the CVI IDE is not installed you need to have the CVI RunTime Engine installed. According to the error message at the bottom of this page you may have an older RTE installed in the target system.
To obtain it you can either download the RTE and install in the target system or better let the IDE build a distribution disk that installs all necessary software in it: this guide drives you in creating the appropriate installer for your application: you can find it also in CVI help function.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Hey bcolden,
I would try uninstalling and reinstalling following the directions in here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
This section in particular contains important information in the uninstall process:
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Best,
Delgadoh

Error when trying to start iCS 2.x -- "the procedure entry point _chkesp could not be located in MSVCRT.dll"

When starting the iPlanet Calendar Server(iCS) 2.x on Windows NT, the following
error occurs: 

The procedure entry point _chkesp could not be located in the dynamic link
library MSVCRT.dll

There are two ways to ensure that you have the correct version of the
MSVCRT.dll file. 

<OL>
<LI>Install the latest Netscape Communicator browser, which will update the
MSVCRT.dll file to the
correct version.

<LI>Copy the MSVCRT.dll
file from a system that has the latest Communicator browser to the iCS
system.
</OL>

The calendar server should now start up.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
Not an error message I recognise personally but the error has the same pattern as those discussed in the first and third boxes, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find AVFoundationCF.dll in the Apple Application Support folder. Delete it and then repair Apple Application Support. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

I get the following error "The procedure entry point RtlCaptureContext could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.Dll" Please help. Windows 2000 sp4

Firefox crashes frequently in Facebook.com.
and the error written above happens often and I think they are related??

That entry point is only available in Windows XP and later and not in Windows 2000. 
*http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms680591%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:

* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it happens on Facebook then you can also try to remove gadgets from your Facebook page to see if one of them is causing it.

The procedure entry point slcvs2ptr could note be located

I get an error:
the procedure entry point slcvs2ptr could note be located oraclient9.dll, and oracore9.dll after installing ORacle HTML DB and HTTP Server on a machine with Oracle 9i and Oracle 10G.
I have now de-installed Oracle HTML DB and HTTP Server, and then my software works (which uses OCI)
What can I do to install Oracle HTML DB and HTTP Server without compromising my default Ora9i installation, that I need to have working?

Check your PATH variable, it seems HTML DB and/or HTTP Server brings its own version of these DLLs, which conflicts with the existing one. On Windows, an Oracle installation puts ORACLE_HOME\bin at the top of PATH variable, it may be neccessary to change PATH dynamically according to the used application.

After installing a new version of Firefox, I get the error message "The procedure entry point JS_GetOperationLimit could not be located in the dynamic link library js3250.dll" when I try to start firefox. Elsewhere in the forum a complete reinstall is suggested; however, I can't do that because of my company's IT policies. Is there any way to solve this problem WITHOUT a complete reinstall? Thank you!

If you can't reinstall Firefox yourself then you need to contact your IT department and ask them to check the Firefox installation.
It is possible that some files got broken with the latest update.
