I can' t get firefox to initialize and install on my computer. Any ideas?

I download the program, open it, click yes to run and then my computer just sits there and doesn't install it. Any ideas on what could be wrong?

hello tyzride, please see if you can download and install firefox from the full installer available at https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/

    How can I get itunes to download and install?

    You need to install it - just downloading does not necessarily install it. If you double click it, does it open an installer window? Or, can you simply drag it into your Applications folder (if it is not showing in Launchpad)?
    FWIW, your downloads folder is just a temporary "holding" place for your downloads - once you have installed applications or moved other files where they belong, you can empty that folder.
    PS - If this is what you downloaded, it is a disk image (.dmg) which means you need to double click it; you then need to move the icon and install it.
    Out of curiosity: is it working well? I'm curious because it is rather dated software.

    Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

    Hey haptat1,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPod nano is not displayed in iTunes when connected to your computer. The following articles include troubleshooting steps that may help resolve your issue, depending on the symptoms:

  • I was involutarily upgraded to Firefox 5.0. F5 plug in won't install. This prevents me from accessing my employer's LAN. How can I get F5 plug in to install? Thanks for any help you can give. MH

    What do I do to successfully install F5 plug in? Firefox 5.0 does not seem to accept it
    My level of computer expertise is at the level of a three year-old - three year-old cat rather than a three-year old human. Please take that into account in giving me any instruction.
    Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated...

    For network access plugins, I suggest checking with your employer's IT personnel. They probably have tested this and can let you know whether there is a solution or you should downgrade.
    You can have Firefox ask you before installing updates. To manage your automatic upgrade settings, go here:
    orange Firefox button > Options > Advanced > "Update" mini-tab

  • I can't get Icloud control panel to install on this computer

    I have no problem with Icloud on my desktop pc but I can't get it to install it on my laptop pc.

    I downloaded the installer and it just doesn't work. It stops after I run the program and doesn't even show as if it is running after I hit run when it gets to that step. No next step. No bar showing progress. Nothing except when I go to try to run it again, it says that you can't run it while it is already running. It doens't show up as runniing in the task manager either.

  • I need to backup my favorites (bookmarks) in a configuration so I can put on a flash drive and install on another computer

    I've spent hours looking for the solution

    Use the method in the following link to back them up to a file that you can restore on the other computer - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Backing+up+and+restoring+bookmarks
    This will replace the replace the bookmarks on the second computer with those from the first. If you want to add the bookmarks, keeping any that already exist, you an export them to an HTML file and then import the HTML file on the second computer. For details see these 2 links:
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Exporting+bookmarks+to+an+HTML+file
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Importing+Bookmarks+from+an+HTML+File
    Another option, if you want the 2 computers to remain in sync, you can use the Firefox Sync add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-sync/

  • Can't get rid of login screen on initial startup.  Any Idea's?

    I have an iMac with a 21.5 inch screen, recently upgraded to Lion.  The problem is when I power up in the morning I get a grey screen wanting my password, and below that, the option to sleep, restart or shutdown.  If I restart, it comes right back to the login grey screen.  If I enter my password, it will open up to the normal blue galaxy screen, but doesn't recognize my audio interface.  So I have to restart again and everything is fine.  I only get the grey login page on the initial startup.  I called an Apple technician and he couldn't solve the problem.  I am the only person using my computer, so I dont need to login everyday.  I also re-installed Lion to no effect.  Anyone have any idea's?  login at startup is un-checked.  Thanks!  

    System Preferences->Users & Groups->Login Options->Automatic Login (then choose your account name in the menu)
    If you're sure it's set that way...
    Try creating a new user account and setting Automatic Login to log in to that account. Does it bypass the login screen now? If so, the problem is with your primary user account.

  • After my Macbook has been on for a little, the light goes out on the screen. When I start to close the screen the light comes back on. I can hold it in this position and keep typing/reading indefinitely.any idea what is the problem?

    After my Macbook has  been in  use  for a little while, the light goes off on the screen as if the computer is off.  Then, as I start to close the screen, it comes back on fully.  If I push it back open it cuts off again.  So, I just leave it part way open and turn the laptop at an angle so that I can continue to see the screen & type.  It acts like there is a short.  Any idea what the problem is?

    It does sound like you might have a faulty video connection. See if you can make a Genius Bar appointment at your local Apple Store.

  • I can't get the picture on TV, I have the sound any ideas?

    I have an apple dock with the Av kit.
    I've read other replies on here and I've tried those solutions. The video is set to TV. I'm in the UK so we're PAL here but either PAL or NTSC don't work.
    I have the picture and the sound on the ipod and only sound on the TV.
    Also the sound level is very low even with ipod on full volume and TV up high it's quiet.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I'm having the same problem exactly. I've tried three different cables, and tried connecting them to the "wrong" plugs too. Nothing gets me video. I've selected Video "out", and chose the "AV" input of my TV. Nothing but very faint sound. And the picture continues to show on the iPod.
    Have you solved the problem yet?

  • My iphone syncs with everything but iphoto. It used to but has now stopped. I cannot get the photos from my phone to my computer. any ideas?

    My iphone syncs with everything except iphoto.
    It used to be able to do it, but has now stopped.
    I'm trying to sync photos so I can upgrade my phone, and keep all my photos taken with my old phone.
    But I cannot get the photos from my phone to my computer because when I link my phone to my mac iphoto doesn't recognise it at all.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Lots of folks fix these kinds of issues with a simple restart of the phone. Others require a Reset of the phone.
