A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, 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 and the updater process.

I just installed firefox; when I click the icon, nothing happens.

In case you haven't solved this by now...
Sometimes your security software will block new programs from accessing the internet. Are you getting any alerts along those lines?
Sometimes Firefox will stall during startup and never display its window. In that case, you may need to manually "kill" the firefox.exe process using the Windows Task Manager before trying to start Firefox again.
You can display the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc. Windows 8.1 has a different display than Windows 7, so I have to go by memory. If you see a tab named Applications, check that one first. Then check Processes, and finally check Details. If you find Firefox or firefox.exe on any of those tabs, select it and End Process (or other action to shut it down).
After you are done with the Task Manager, try starting Firefox up again.

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace

Firefox does not load up, open up when I click the icon, or when I go to firefox using the start menu.

I downloaded firefox 4 and used it for a few days and then it ceased to open up when I clicked the icon or went through the start menu. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and it still does not open.

Have you tried opening in Safe Mode - Hold down the Shift key as you double click.
Your Ask Toolbar is a known problem.
If Safe Mode works you can work your way through this -

Firefox will suddenly not open when I click the icon, even though I have used Firefox on this computer for several months with no issues.

I have always used Firefox with no problems but suddenly the window will not even open when I click the Firefox icon. No error windows appear either.

Hi pkuhne-
I am not sure why your Firefox stopped working all of a sudden. I would recommend uninstalling and then re-installing Firefox.
1) Get new download: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
2) Uninstall your current Firefox version.
3) Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
4) 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.
Hope that helps

Installed Lightroom CC but when I click on icon nothing happens.

I installed the new Lightroom CC but when I click on the desktop icon nothing happens. Any idea why not?

To All who signing out and signing in isn't resolving for you and are on Windows,
This could still be licensing related---
What if you try renaming both the SLCache and SLStore folders prior to launching Lightroom?
Locations of both of these folders are located in Solution 3 of this document: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/unable-launch-lightroom-55.html
If you'd like to change permissions first as a test, then renaming the folders and report back the findings of both methods, that'd be great!
Let us know how it goes.

Pete

I am no longer able to open new tabs. When I click the button, nothing happens. Help!

Clicking "Open a new tab" in my browser does nothing. However, if I right click a link from an existing tab and then click open a new tab, the new tab opens and the page loads. The button on the browser, the one with the + in the middle, it does nothing. HELP!

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened. The Ask toolbar can be installed as part of Foxit.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Firefox will no longer save a Bitmap. When I click "SAVE AS" , nothing happens.

When I right-click on an Internet image, and on the drop-down box, select SAVE AS. No box appears to show the current name of the image, or to allow me to enter a name of my choice. ... and image is not save anywhere. Up to now it has always worked perfectly.

You can try to clear the cache.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
You can also check for issues with the mimeTypes.rdf file.

Somehow my "IPhoto" icon now says "Preview". When I click on "Preview" nothing opens up except the bar says Preview. When I click on the Preview on the bar, a box opens up with different items, except when I click on any of them, there is nothing there. The only thing that work is the "quit preview". However, it is still there where my IPhoto icon should be. I can't get into my IPhoto. How do I get rid of this "Preview" and how did it end up taking over the IPhoto icon???
If you go to your Applications folder and double click on iPhoto what happen?

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 extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

IPhoto is not showing up when I click the icon

IPhoto is not responding when I click the icon. It loads and shows at the top of my header, but nothing shows up on the screen. I am able to see my photos in FINDER under iPhoto library, but not within the iPhoto program. I have already attempted to "repair my iPhoto library" and attempted to put my start up disc of iLife '11 in the drive, but it will not let me install. Any suggestions?

If the Menu bar up top is showing iPhoto then the usual reason is that the window had disappeared from sight behind the dock or similar.
Try going to SystemPreferences/Displays and choosing another resolution for your display. This will force the Mac to redraw the screen and the various windows should then show up in the centre. You can then change it back.
