  • Firefox wont run says pc needs to restart to complete installation, it never does- same message when i try to uninstall

    firefox will not open. when I try to uninstall it I get a message that says
    PC needs to restart to complete previous firefox installation
    but when I reboot I get the same message, I can not access Firefox in any manner

    Glad it helped, <br>It probably would have been better to get to the root cause of the problem but if it is working again that is the important thing.
    You could have problems at some later date, and one of the most important things is likely to be your collection of bookmarks. It will be worthwhile regularly making manual backups of those, and keeping them somewhere safe outside of the main firefox folders, if you ever need to do a full uninstall and reinstall, including deletion of old firefox data at least you will then be able to reinstate bookmarks. see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    As an example of what can easily go wrong, and an add-on recommended by another poster see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/787020 thread] ''"I deleted by mistake bookmarks by uninstalling the previous version of Firefox beta 4.011b... Is there anyway to recover them?" ''
    leading to http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/#bb as a method of automatically backing up bookmarks and profile information.

  • Firefox wont run on my computer

    this is the error I am getting "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window."

    ''jscher2000 [[#answer-711684|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    The slightly less simple solution is to try to shut down Firefox using the Windows 7 Task Manager.
    Ctrl+Shift+Esc launches the Task Manager (or you can choose it from the Ctrl+Alt+Del screen), then:
    * try the Applications tab, and End Task on Firefox windows you find there
    * if that does not work, try the Processes tab, and End Process on firefox.exe
    This should crash Firefox out of memory and hopefully let you start it up again without having to shut down/restart Windows.

  • Firefox wont install

    been using firefox on this computer for years. downloaded new version. put it in the applications folder. lost everything firefox. wont run on my architecture. ppc g4 mac os10.5.8

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; '''''yours is a PPC Mac''''') '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher.

  • Flash swf that runs on every browser except in Firefox. Can anyone help me please?

    Hello.
    I have an flash swf in a site that runs on every browser except in Firefox. I get an warning telling me that the page requires a newer version of flash player but i already have the 10,0,32,18 and the swf was published for flash player 9.
    Can anyone help me please?

    The figures you mention only make sense on your intranet.  Are you still using the same wireless router.  The verizon one is somewhat limited as far as max wireless-n performace.  For one thing it only has a 2.4 radio.   I like many people who wanted wireless-n performance before they even added a wireless-n gigabit router, have my own handling my wireless-n network.

  • 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 update it says i have firefox running in back ground then stops but i do not

  • HT5648 OS10.6.8 Firefox 24.0  The new Yahoo mail shows no graphics.  However, the new Yahoo mail displays correctly in Safari and Chrome.  I believe this has to to with the settings for Javascript.  Help me, please.

    OS10.6.8, Firefox 24.0 
    The new Yahoo mail shows no graphics using Firefox 24.0 - just identical rectangles where new icons should be.\.  However, the new Yahoo mail displays correctly in Safari and Chrome.  I believe this has to to with the settings for Javascript.  Those settings aren.t easy to access in the most recent Firefox 24.0 version.   Help me, please.

    The settings for Javascript are either on or off, Fireefox 24 doesn't give you a option to turn off Javascript, unless you installed something like NoScript extension (or some other Javascipt blocking add-on)
    If NoScript, then you need to use the View > Toolbars > Customize and drag the NoScript "Temp Allow All" button to the toolbar area to enable all enabled scripts (including Javascript) on that web page.
    Under the Firefox Help menu is a option to restart with add-ons disabled to see if something you might have installed is causing your problem.
    Reinstall Firefox or create another user account and run Firefox there to try to localize your issue.
    I'm having no problem here on 10.6.8 in Firefox, Chrome or Safari, Yahoo Mail works perfectly.

    My iphone 4s wont turn on,it wont even charge,when it does eventually start to charge the apple icon on the screen will appear for a few seconds then itll disappear, i have tried to do the soft/hard reset but nothing happens, can anyone help me please? do i have a dead iphone on my hands? isit worth me going into the apple store and seeing what they can do or isit pointless? please help!!!

    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

  • I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet bc i cannot lose my photos but tinyumbrella wont work. HELP! please:(

    I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.something (something about the speakers) to get rid of a notification and it went into recovery mode!!! My photos are not backed up or on icloud. i havent restored yet because i cannot lose my photos/videos, etc. but tinyumbrella wont work to exit recovery mode. HELP! please:(
    i tried tinyumbrella (and another similar software) to exit recovery but it only remains on the apple logo stuck there. please is there anything else i can do? i've contacted apple and they have told me the only choice i have is to restore and lose all my data.
    my iphone isn't jailbroken and i've updated before without this problem so i'm not sure what has happened. is there anyyy hope please ???

    First I would try to hold down the power and the home button for about 15sec, but at least as long as the iPhone restarts, if it is still stuck or still in recovery mode then I can suggest you the tool "Wondershare Dr. Fone for iOS", it is both a Windows and Mac tool and I just used it today to get my iPad out of the Recovery mode.
    Tell me if any of these options worked for you.
