First firefox wouldn't update now it wont install

For months now, when i started up Firefox i would get a message that it had been unable to update. Today i decided to uninstall and re install it but after it says extracting 0% the window disappears and nothing else happens.

If you got the standard "stub" download, could you try the "full" installer. You can get that from the following page (scroll down to your preferred language):
https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
I think in an earlier thread it was reported that Firefox installers include decompression technology from 7-zip. Is Windows reporting or recording any error involving 7-zip?

  • First It wouldn't sync, Now iTunes wont read it.

    My iPod was fine until I reformatted my computer. Then I plugged it in and tried to add some songs on it. It wanted to restore it so I did. I kept getting an error ever ytime It would start to sync, saying Windows - Delayed write failed and said a bunch of other stuff with it. I kept trying over and over, I even tried putting the music on manually but it kept popping up. Now when I plug it in iTunes wont read it, but My Computer reads it, and an autoplay pops up and starts going through my songs but it never recognizes the iPod.

  • Error when updating, now computer wont recognise.

    I was updating my iPod touch today, itunes downloaded the update for the ipod and when it went to install it apparently had an error and now it wont do squat. It doesnt show up under "my computer" nor iTunes (using usb cable of course).. i have a newer Dell with Windows 7, current update of itunes as well... I've tried to reset the ipod but to no avail.... it turns on but shows a picture of a usb cable with an arrow pointing up towards the "itunes" icon.... ALSO, this is a little older touch, its the 32gb, pre camera version with the sleep button on the top left... H E L P!

    Try here:

    Also try on another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

  • HT3960 My iPhone will not update. it keeps asking me to restore but then says there's an internal error -1. At first it wouldn't update saying there was no SIM Card. This was a used phone that i had the SIM Card replaced

    Got a used iPhone4 to replace my lost one, had the screen replaced and then had the SIM card replaced by Best Buy.
    They had issues in the store connecting to iTunes but the Geek Squad where they wiped it and said all was good.
    Got home to update it and all was good up to the point where i needed to have the phone to work.
    Then it wouldn't recognize there was a SIM card and to restore my phone.
    it comes up now with unable to restore, unknown error -1
    Help please

  • ITunes 10.1.1 Updated, Now iTunes wont open!

    I have recently by way of software updater, updated iTunes to the latest 10.1.1 and now iTunes will not open up on my mac at all. I have never had a problem with this program before. Are they any ways to correct this problem such as downloading the update directly from apple, and if that is the case do I have to uninstall iTunes first or will the downloaded file from apple directly overwrite the previouse problem update file to get me back up and running?

    Make sure this isn't a problem with an older app that you used with iTunes, try the steps here -> iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins

  • Installed Latest update - now it wont turn on - just flashing LED

    I need help please! 
    I had my phone since Feb this year.  It's been great overall.  I've had a few problems with it overheating and draining the battery, but not consistently.
    Anyhow, on Wednesday evening, I did a little looking around and found there was an OS update, so I ran it. 
    Ever since, my phone will not switch back on.  
    The LED is flashing, but not like before, this time the flashing has a pattern to it:  One long flash then five fast flashes. 
    I don't know what this means....  Obvs I can't get any details off my phone because it wont switch on, so please don't ask me what the update was... 
    I need help - there's obviously power there, because the light is flashing. 
    I've tried removing the battery, sim card and micro SD and none of this has helped. 

    This is a an error message, (you probably already realised that), there seems to be no published list of what these mean but I had a similer problem on one of the early Dev phones.  Then the solution was to drain the battery then do a series of longer and longer charges.
    However my suggestion now is to autoload an OS and see if it get's you past the problem.
    If you can't even get to the boot rom stage to install the OS, then come back and I'll dig out what the solution was mentioned above.
    Autoloader info can be found here...

  • Downloaded latest update now Itunes wont open

    I just downloaded the latest update. After restart I now cannot open Itunes as I receive the following message when I try to open it:
    "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your Audio Configuration."
    This message appears within seconds of double clicking Itunes.
    I was playing an older version of Itunes just minutes before the update.
    BTW, I am running Microsoft Vista... wonder if that has anything to do with it?
    Any help would be deeply appreciated. Thanks.

    no, in the case of this error message the problem is typically caused by a broken QuickTime. the article that Jeff linked travhawk too is the first thing to try:

  • Did ios update now phone wont work

    Help!  I just tried to do an update on my iphone 3 (which was prompted when connecting to itunes) but now my phone wont work at all.  It wont configure

    Any specific error messages?
    Try switching off your seurity software and restore the device http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    NB: using that article will erase everything so make sure you have a backup
    try restoring on another computer if this fails, and if that doesn't work either, the device needs hardware repair.

  • Upgraded to firefox 3.6.3 now it wont open when I click on it

    I upgraded to the new firefox saved the application and when I click on the Icon to open the browser it doesn't open. I have tried to uninstalled and re-installed it as well and it still won't open.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • My mail app will not open up, at first firefox would not open now mail

    my mac is realy acting slow....mail will not open...software is OS x lion 10.7.4   on my imac 20 inch mid 2007   will the new mountain lion solve any problems or only make for more.  should I turn my mac off each night  it runs all the time

    Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
    Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
    When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
    The solution has been to:
    1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
    2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
    3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
    Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
    If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
