Had an avg problem (still unresolved) now firefox does not come up at all but something in the background is working once I clicked on it - windows XP

I had/have avg toubble and now firefox will not start. I uploaded a new version but made no difference. If I click on it the time symbol comes up for a few seconds and than nothing. When I restart the computer though a small window comes up alerting me not to end the programm till it scaned it. So I figure after clicking on it something must be running in the background. But no symbol comes up on the dectop or in the application manager.
Any ideas?
Regards Franz

Was the message sent from Microsoft Outlook? When you embed an image in a message in Outlook (at least up to version 2003), it creates a hidden attachment for the image and then inserts a "cid" reference to it. If the attachment gets stripped for any reason then the "cid" reference is useless: Outlook does not store the original URL or path to the image.
Edit: By the way, which webmail site has this problem?

What is your anti-virus software?

I updated to iTunes 10.7 and now iTunes does not see my iPod Touch. It says the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver cannot be installed.

I updated to iTunes 10.7 and now iTunes does not see my iPod touch. After the update I got a message that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver could not be installed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes 3 times, but still cannot fix the problem. I have followed the suggested fixes in Apple Support. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Try the actions here for that driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would first do this:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

I loaded a new Firefox because F does not open. That new Firefox does not open. At all. Task Manager tells some loadings, but F not open. I have restarted, cleaned register, but F does not work.

Earlier F crashed, crashed etc. Now it does not start.
I have checked viruses etc.
When I started a new loading, no questions of add-ons or anything.

Do a clean (re)install of the latest Firefox version and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
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
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.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
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.
You may need to remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container 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 and the updater process.

Firefox does not come up when I double click the icon, why not?

I upgraded Adobe but Firefox did not come up afterward. I uninstalled the upgrade but still can't get Firefox. On Start I get an MSN page without a toolbar or any other way to get to anywhere else. I have to close the window and am back at Desktop. Windows Explorer is working, going to wedsites, etc.

What version iOS have you got ? If you are still on the orginal iOS 3 version then you won't get the taskbar.

I just upgraded to v3.6.26 (from v3.6.24 or 25) now Firefox does not open at all - no error, no nothing.

I chose 'restart Firefox' after the upgrade, but it didn't open. I tried double-clicking on the desktop icon, then Start -> Firefox, but absolutely nothing happens. There was something on the upgrade page which I didn't read ( ! ) about Firefox not opening after this upgrade when certain files were missing. Any diagnostic help appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply, but that didn't work. I went to my Norton 2009/2010 settings as per the instructions, and removed Firefox, and re-added it, and it still doesn't open. (I got a message saying 'you're trying to add a program that already has rules'.)
I went back to v3.6.x after initially upgrading to v4 and had so many problems I un-installed and went back to the previous version (internet searching revealed that everyone who had my problems had done the same). The latest versions of Firefox also have myriad problems. I just want it to work! And v3.6.24 DID work. But now, I have no Firefox at all. :-(

Ran firefox update and now firefox does not run correctly.

I ran the latest firefox update 9Firefox Setup Stub 33.0). Now when I start firefox the browser opens and inside of it is black. I cannot see anything to use the browser. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. I have also restarted my computer. I have taken a screen shot of what it looks like.

Currently in version 33, Firefox has implemented a new, faster way of loading webpages. This new feature is called OMTC. However, there are still some tweaks Mozilla developers are making to this.
There is a known issue that Mozilla works on very hard to fix: if you are experiencing black webpages on some sites, here's what you can do to avoid the problem in the meantime:
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
To disable Hardware Acceleration
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options''.
* In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
* In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
Now, exit Firefox, wait a few seconds, and then start it normally.
Please let us know if this solves the problem. Engineering is also gathering more information about the issue would request that you fill out [http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1851506/1c87a6cf309a this survey]
I should also mention that other users with this problem had an embedded intel hd graphics card with an old driver present. Until Mozilla comes up with a fix, if you want Hardware Acceleration in Firefox, you can try to update your driver through the appropriate link below to see if that helps:

Can I get rid of 36? It installed an update and now firefox does not work at all

firefox 36 is seriously broken
It updated on my computer and now does not work at all. I've tried all the suggestions and no help.....going back to IE

Hi wskossack, I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with Firefox 36. I am also sorry that we have not been able to get that working for you yet.
If what you really want is to uninstall Firefox we can do that. Of course I have to ask if you would be willing to let my help you to get the most up to date version of Firefox working. But, Firefox is all about the ability to customize. If you want we can install the last version of Firefox and you can use that until the next version comes out or while we work to get Firefox 36 working for you. I will try to cover every option in my reply.
First I will cover uninstalling Firefox. If you want to look at the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer|article click here]] this can be done in about 7 steps
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Firefox and install it again. This will most likely fix any problems you have right now. Because you are asking how to do this I am going to assume that you have not tried this.
If you have Vista or Windows 7:
1) close any open Firefox windows.
2) from the start menu click on control panel
3) click on uninstall a program
4) from this list chose Firefox
5) click on uninstall (this is located turds the top)
If the Uninstall Wizard does not run, you can start it manually by running helper.exe, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
6) in the Firefox uninstall wizard click next and on the next page click uninstall then click finish
7) to remove other files and folders that may not be removed by the uninstall, you must manually delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
The uninstaller does not remove any user data such as history or bookmarks. To completely remove this data, you must manually delete the Firefox folder containing your user profile:
Click the Windows Start button.
Type %APPDATA% in the search field and press enter to open the hidden Roaming folder.
Open the Mozilla folder
Delete the Firefox folder.
Now I am going to go over how to get the last version of Firefox installed on your computer. If you want to look at the [[Install an older version of Firefox|article click here]] . If you decide that this is what you want to do please look at the article for some impotent security information.
Firefox 35.0.1 was the last version of Firefox and you can get it by [https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/35.0.1/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%2035.0.1.exe clicking here] . The link is also in the article. If you do this you will have to disable the auto update. To do this go to options, then go to advance. Under advance there will be a sub tab. You want to go to update. Then you can select to never check or to have it tell you when there is an update.
So the only thing left is for me to help you with any problems you are having with Firefox 36. I hope you will give me a chance. In any case, if you need any more information or help with anything that I went over please let me know.

I have 2 external hard drives, but can not view photos from 1 hard drive in LR5 now. I used this hard drive in LR5 before, but now it does not show up. How do I get the hard drive to show up in LR5?

Any ideas on how to connect hard drive back into LR5?

Hi:
Let's see if I can help you, help me. Operating system is OS X, version 10.8.5.
The photos on hard drive (1) have never been removed from Lightroom (or have they?)They have not been removed from LR.
Could you explain why hard drive (1) stopped appearing in Lightroom, it must have been because you did something, otherwise the photos on hard drive (1) will still appear there.LR always worked great, until I had to upgrade my operating system to get LR5 to work. Then it has been one problem after another.
So, once I ran into this problem and before we started to chat….I simply RE-imported all the photos from (1). They came in fine, except none of their key words came along with them. So my ability to find anything is "0". It was bad enough to have to do the import all over, but the thought of having to re-tag 1000"s of images is overwhelming.
Thanks for your patience.
Kathy

Firefox Does not load most of websites but other browsers does

Hello, I have a problem.. Suddenly my firefox stopped working properly. I didnt install or changed a setting lately but still...

It's a noscript bug. Install the latest development build will solve it. Check http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5699

I recently uninstalled iTunes on my Windows 8. I reinstalled it, now iTunes won't come up. All it says is "The file "itunes library.itl" cannot read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes."

A couple hours ago I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1.2 or the newest version of iOS (not 8). When it finished, I turned it on and it showed a charger at the bottom of the screen and in the middle, an arrow, and at the top it showed the iTunes icon. I've never seen this before, so I took it as I needed to plug my phone up into my laptop? Well the first thing it said when I plugged it in, it said something like it can't be used until it's turned on. I updated it and it messed up even more, which caused me to uninstall all of the apple inc. software. I reinstalled iTunes and now when I try to open it, all it says is "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." First, what does the charger and iTunes icon mean when I try to turn my phone on? And how do I fix iTunes on my laptop?

Hello there, livviboobear.
It sounds like your error message is in regards to having installed an older version of iTunes on your computer. The following Knowledge Base article offers up the step-by-step on how to properly uninstall iTunes:

When I close Firefox, the window closes but the Firefox.exe process and Plug-in Container remain running in the background and have to be shut down using Windows Task Manager.

This happens frequently. Something in Firefox continues to run even when the program is closed. The process has to be stopped before I can open Firefox again.

Thanks. Closing with File/Exit instead of the X closes Firefox properly. AT LAST! A solution!

Had an avg problem (still unresolved) now firefox does not come up at all but something in the background is working once I clicked on it - windows XP
