I am unable to download or install any addon on Firefox 29.

I am absolutely unable to download any addon in Firefox. I already did the reset, tried to add xpinstall (because I could not find it) and disabled my antivirus and firewall. None of these helped. I am using windows 7. Please, help, I'm going crazy.

Hello, thanks, but it did not help. Actually I have no idea what is going on but the timezone for my area is wrong. I had to choose the timezone for another country because windows seems to think it's another time. So I don't know if this has anything to do. I am however able to download addons in Comodo Dragon so it's more confusing.

    Hi, mayca07.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would need more information regarding the exact issue or errors received to provide a better answer.  However, there are a couple things that I would recommend trying.  Try forcing all open applications to close and restart the device.  Next, go through the section labeled Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the second article below.

    I have the iPhone 4S and have received a notice in the "settings" area indicating a "General" Software Update is available concerning fixes of bugs etc. I am sitting right next to my wi-fi network and am still unable to download and install the iOS7.0.2 download.  You have a website listed on the window but that appears to be a non existant site and I cannot even communicate my problems to you via that site.  What the heck is happening?  Why do you send me boggus info to download and then not allow me the opportunity to do so?  I never had these types of problems with SAMSUNG!

  • I had firefox4.0 installed in my PC. There was a glitch in the browser so I uninstalled it and now when I am trying to re-install any version of firefox, I am unable to.

    This is the message that I see when I try installing any version of Firefox:
    Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous uninstall of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * 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.
    * 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.

  • Unable to install any addons after updating to Firefox 7.0.1

    I am not able to install any addons after updating to firefox 7.0.1. Addons are still working. Addons will start to download but will get stuck at 100% download progress.

    What addons do you already have installed? Could be one of them is interfering with the downloads somehow...

  • Unable to download or run any videos from Youtube

    Unable to download or run any videos from YouTube. I can open the YouTube website, but when I select any videos, even ones I've posted myself in the past, from another computer, the video window opens and shows the "whirling circle" display that indicates it's trying to download, but nothing else happens. Meanwhile on the rest of the website window, other flash data continues to display and update.
    This is not restricted to Firefox; same thing happens with any browser I attempt to use. Could be windows 7 related, but I don't know what other settings to check.

    Try to disable the restrictions and reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again.
    Are you using Wi-Fi? If yes, check your security software settings as well:

  • Unable to install ANY addon.

    Folks,
    I don't add too many but recently I had to rebuild my machine.
    I got some of the addons installed, but suddenly I can't install any.
    I was trying some and dismissed it as "the site is busy" but now I can't seem to install any.
    I have anitvirus programs running and am "clean" - as far as they are concerned - and I am running MBAM now.
    I have the latest version (19.0) and 19.0.2 both won't install any addon. They just seem to "stall".
    I am trying to install either of the australian english dictionary.
    Both just fail.
    Oh, this site seems to have changed since my last visit. There are no graphics, it is "unix" like. And is SLOW AS..... to load. But so are many other sites as well.

    Update:
    MBAM scanned the computer and I got a report.
    It did find a couple of "nasty" files.
    They were deleted and I don't know if they had actually activated.
    But picking a simple one like Australian English dictionary it just doesn't load.
    Am reading the "corrupt file" link now.
    Alas not else much useful to report.

  • I would like to know if it's possible to bring back the status bar in Firefox 4 without having to install any addons.

    Does anybody know how to bring back the status bar in Firefox 4 without having to install any addons? The reason why I ask is that for some reason, when Firefox 4 was made available to the general public to download, Firefox 4 was missing the status bar and also the save and quit message was turned off by default. I got the save and quit message turned back on but I just don't know if it's possible to bring back the status bar without any addons.

    Please read this article:

  • After Downloading and Installing any version of Camera Raw after 8.3 the installation completes but 8.3 remains, how can I resolve this?

    I am using Windows 7 Home Premium, with Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6.. I previously had this same problem installing Camera Raw 8.3  and as a work around back then, Adobe Support manually edited the Registry of my Windows 7 laptop to enable Photoshop CS6 and Bridge CS6 to recognise the Adobe Camera Raw 8.3 software so I could edit my files from my then new Nikon D610 camera...  Now when I receive and install any updates for Camera Raw the installation says it was successful but the old 8.3 version of Adobe Camera Raw remains when launched via Bridge or Photoshop..  which means I am unable to edit any files with the New Nikon D750 , or even the D810, can someone please help me solve this issue once and for good.. Thanks, please?!

    Download the latest version: Parallels Desktop 8.0.18483. Uninstall the one you have then install the new version. The uninstaller will either be in your Applications folder or on the disk image for the version you now have installed.

  • Unable to download and install Adobe Reader

    While trying to download and install Adobe Reader, when I click on OPEN, nothing happens.  When I click on SAVE, I receive the message download failed.  When I retry, a file is downloaded; however, I am unable to open the file.  I am using Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 11.

    I am using WIN XP PRO SP 3.0 32 bit on a desktop....
    I have tried 3 times to re-install Adobe Reader for Windows, but it keeps on telling me that the installation was unsuccessful...I have tried to find out more, I seem to have met all the requirements, and yes I tried that link, too.....
    Any ideas? I know this Q & A was last year,  but maybe you might have found an answer for me, as I uninstalled my current version before I started, now I wish I had left it alone....but I was trying to fix another problem on Firefox, which said I had to re-install anything from Adobe, to see if it would fix my little problem, now I have a bigger problem!!
    The 1st problem was I cannot upload pics on Facebook, now I find I cannot upload a pic for Adobe, (on my profile page)!!!! I can still insert/upload a pic on Word, however....
    I do hope you might be able to help me, as I am a novice when it comes to fixing problems....
    Many thanks....Peace & Love

  • I went to Dell website and there were no listings for Mac so was unable to download printer. Any other ideas????

    I went to Dell Website and there were no listing for Mas so was unable to download anything to help. Any other ideas????

    If you have already downloaded it, have you installed it yet? I know the most recent Flash plug-in isn't optimized for Chrome, but Safari works just fine with it. There should be an arrow pointing down in your upper right hand corner of the screen. If you tap on that, it will list your downloads. Tap on the Flash download and you should be able to follow the prompts to install the plug-in.

  • Unable to download and install adobe acrobat x1

    I bought and installed Adobe Acrobat XI pro from a retail outlet and registered it on my Adobe Account.
    I have no changed computers and was trying to re-install the software, however the disc is scratched and so I was trying to download and install from my adobe online account. As I was unable to locate a download link, I downloaded a trial version and installed it and then fed in my serial number - I now get a message that my serial number is not valid!
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Sammy,
    Can you please share the last 4 digit of your serial number so that we Can confirm that you are using the correct serial number. And the platform you have installed the product is on Windows only?

  • Unable to download and install Adobe FlashPlayer on Windows Vista 32(I think) Using Firefox Browser.

    I have tried approximately thirteen times to download Adobe Flashplayer, and it is not working!!!! I am using a Windows Vista 32(I think it is 32) and using Mozilla Firefox as the browser, but it keeps saying it is unable to install and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to work!!!! I had it on this computer before now, but i had to get it sent into the shop to get worked on and they got rid of it, and now it will not download or install on my computer. Please help! oh, and im not all that great on computers so it is aggravating me and making me want to throw my laptop that something i have done before is deciding not to work.

    Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking the following link and selecting "Save link as".
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Save the file to your Downloads folder.
    Open your Control Panel and click Uninstall A Program under Programs and Features.
    Uninstall the Flash Player plugin from the list.
    Close the Control Panel, reboot and run the installer from your Downloads folder.
