im trying to uninstal firefox so i went to my control pannel clicked on add or remove progams then clicked on mozzola firefox and clicked remove it said it was still running so i clicked ctrl alt dlt and clicked task manager and ended firefox from running and when i did that the box to uninstall firefox exited so i clicked it again and the program started running again i dont know what to do i need firefox uninstalled

I assume you are using windows. There are two options:
1. Try restarting your computer and then try uninstalling.
2. Firefox might be a program that starts immediately upon booting. In that case, go to the task manager, end all tasks that firefox is running. Then try uninstalling firefox

    my ipod nano 7th generation won't play anything and when i click "radio" it says to plug in headphones when they're in. Can anyone help me with this problem?

    Get a flashlight and make sure there is no obstruction/dirt/debris in the Nano headphone jack. Be sure you plug the headphones all the way in, the plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Nano.

  • HT204406 I purchased an album from itunes, and put it in a playlist. icloud status lists all the songs as purchased, and when I click on "Update itunes Match", this playlist will not update. There is a cloud to the right of the playlist name.

    I purchased an album from the itunes store, and put it in a playlist. icloud status listed all the songs as purchased, instead of the usual "Waiting". When I clicked on "Update itunes Match", everything updated except this playlist. There is a cloud to the right of the playlist name. This has never happened before.
    Any ideas?

    I deleted the songs from my desktop (iMac), then I used itunes match to reload the songs back on my desktop from my laptop. When they reappeared on my desktop, then I right-clicked on the songs and clicked on the option to add to icloud. This however did not work, and they just duplicated into icloud, but they were "greyed out" and unuseable. I hope I'm explaining myself clearly? In other words, the songs seem to be trying to go into the cloud, but they are greyed out in my library and cannot download. It is as if they are ghosts? My songs do play fine when I transfer them via itunes match, and everything appears normal. They just won't transfer via the cloud. As I said before, every other song in my library always work fine via the could, but only the songs off this one album that I bought from itunes in 07' will not work???

  • Droid Razr M , after update to 4.4.2 my "Phone" widget on my homepage no longer works.. shows android and when I click on it  says "app not installed"

    hello all, I just got my phone on Monday, this morning I was prompted to update the software, when I did, my homepage "phone app" no longer works.  It now shows the android robot above the word "phone" and when I click on it, it says "app isnt installed"

    It needs to be updated or reinstalled, i would just go ahead and do a reset on the phone although probably should check your "playstore" first and at the top left there should be 3 horizontal lines click, then my apps, then anything that still says update go ahead and update. then turn phone off and on. doesn't work. can try holding a place on mainscreen where there is no icon and add widget should come up and see if there it is in there just looks different or something . if not factory reset

  • I have Windows Vista and when i click uninstall windows asks for permission then the usual uninstall process does not take place please help Carl

    I cant uninstall Firefox in the normal way please help, the operating system on my pc is Vista I can only get as far as allowing windows permission then nothing happens

    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.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component, such as Apple Application Support, won't install normally.

  • HT1657 I rented a movie and now I cannot figure out how to watch it on Apple TV.  We did the update yesterday.  I used to go under the "Movies" tab and click Play.  It has the original options now and when I click "Rent" it says already rented, not downlo

    I rented a movie from ITunes yesterday and now I cannot figure out how to watch it on Apple TV.  I have done this before, and to watch it later on, I would go back under the "Movies" option, find the movie, and there would be a Play option available.  We did the update to Apple TV yesterday.  Now when I go back to the movie, I see the original options. Preview, Rent, Buy, etc.  When I click on Rent again, it says the movie has already been rented but not downloaded. It instructs me to go under Settings/Downloads/Check Downloads, but there is nothing under Settings about Downloads.  I found an option to Check for Rentals, but when I click on that option, it just keeps searching, with no results.  Any ideas?  This worked before the update, even though it took forever to download a movie....

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

  • I am trying to update Firefox. When I click on "dowload" the box pops up and says "save file" or "cancel". Usually it says "Run" or "open".. how do I fix this so I can do the update ?

    Not sure if this problem is with firefox or with my computer in general. I can't seem to get the download to work because the only option I get is to "save" the file, not "run" or "open"... Thank you for your help

    Firefox does not have a built-in "Run" option on downloads for security reasons. If you "Run" an item, your anti-virus/anti-spyware may not have an opportunity to fully examine the contents until it is already installed on your hard drive. Result: damage, if infected, is already installed on your system.
    With that in mind, you can install the following add-on, but you accept the risk mentioned above ('''NOTE:''' the developer has not updated this product -- OR any of his other 7 extensions -- to be compatible beyond Firefox 3.6.x; therefore, when you upgrade to a more current version of Firefox, you may lose the functionality of the add-on if the developer does not update it.):

  • When i try to open firefox i keep getting a message that says that it is still running and i need to close it before i can access it. i have rebooted the system checked profiles and cannot use firefox - what should i do?

    i keep getting the same error message which prevents me from opening firefox. how can i rectify it?
    Message: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

    Did you find the Firefox profile folder?

    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders, use %APPDATA% in the File name field<br />

  • ITunes will not open in Windows 7 for one User. All I get is the Licence Agreement pane and when I click YES nothing further happens. I have set up a second user and iTunes opens without problem in that User window.

    Clearly something is blocking the main user(administrator) from opening the iTunes programme and I cannot find a solution.

    Many thanks for your reply. Yes I carried out the suggested procedure in safe mode , which did not resolve the issue and so this is what led me to set up a second User account. iTunes opened without problem in this second account and so I looked at the User-specific troubleshooting but I just could not locate the iTunes Preference files no matter how much searching I did.
    I also tried uninstalling and re-installing but the problem persists. Would be very grateful for any further advice.

    After altering the "Processes" list in Task manager, almost all of my programs show the iTunes icon, and when I click on, for example, Firefox, iTunes will load. Uninstalling iTunes restores the normal loading of other programs, but re-installation of iTunes makes the problem recur. Any answers?

    First I'd set up a System Restore point. Then try applying the LNK registry fix from the following document:
    File Association Fixes for Windows 7
    Does that get your icons back to normal?

    Firefox crashes when I click help > troubleshoot information. It's also not sending crash reports. I really can't be any more specific or straightforward than I am being right now. I have reinstalled multiple times. I've tried the same thing in safe mode. Cache and history and cookies are cleared. Hardware Acceleration is disabled. All of it.

    I'm not having this problem with Chrome.

  • I keep getting a notice on opening Firefox for the first time saying I need to update and when I click on it the thing keeps saying it is connecting. It does not look like a real Firefox request so I've been closing it.

    Every morning when I turn on my computer and start Firefox I get a notice that I need to update Firefox. When I click to do so it just keeps running saying "Connecting".
    I do have a Print Screen of it and would send it if you want.

    If you have problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    You may need to remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
    Do a clean (re-)install:
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * 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 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox 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.
