I can't get Firefox to load. When I click on the icon the page doesn't load and it is not responding

My FF stalled so I closed the window. When I click on the ff icon, the page comes up but the page is blank and when I right click the f icon it says the application is not responding

From your question I am going to assume that this is the first time that you've encountered this issue. Applications, like Firefox, can become responsive for various reasons. I would suggest killing the Firefox process. If you're not familiar with the steps to do so you can simply reboot your system.

When clicking "Save image as" how can I get Firefox to auto add a (1) (2) etc at the end of the filename if an image with the same filename already exists?

How can I get Firefox to automatically rename images when clicking "Save image as" on the menu, when an image with the same file name already exists in the folder??

Hello,
That is not a feature that is supported natively within Firefox but there are various add-ons which I think will do the job you need.
The one I have used is [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-slide-show/?src=search Web Slide Show]. This is primarily an add-on for viewing a slideshow of images when they are presented as thumbnails on a web page. However once you are in the slideshow there is a download button which will download all the images in the slideshow. It will automatically rename the images if an image with the same name already exists in the folder.
If you don't like that add-on then here are some others that may do the same job:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-download-%E2%85%B1/?src=search Image Download II]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/image-picker/ Image Picker]
I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. That is now an outdated version. To get the latest security updates I suggest updating to version 24. See the support article here: [[Update Firefox to the latest version]].

I can no longer get Firefox to display when I click the tab. The toolbar shows me firefox is up and running but cannot get the page to expand.

This all happened after a windows update. It started when a pop-up I was wanting to see wouldn't come up but was showing in the toolbar below that it was up. I could click on the toolbar screen and it would shoot over to the right side out of view. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and now I can't get the browser to do anything up idle in the toolbar!!

After this, you probably will be buying some access control software...
First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that fix it? If not, try creating a new (blank) profile: [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
To move key settings like bookmarks from your damaged profile to the new profile, see: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile Recovering important data from an old profile].
Hope this helps.

Firefox 6. When right clicking a tab no drop-down menu appears. Why do I not have the option to pin, unpin, etc.

I'm using Firefox 6 with all current updates. This is on a desktop pc running Windows XP (Service Pack 3).
At some previous time I was able to pin tabs - I pinned three. Lately I do not have a drop-down menu when right clicking on a pinned or unpinned tab. The feature is just not there.

Try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

When I click on the app, it close straight away, even if I download a free app it is still the same. I really need to fix it fast!!!

Try this...
Turn the Pod Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the iPod On.
If, after this, you are still having issues then try the Steps in the above Link for Troubleshooting Apps...

I have downloaded firefox, the icon is in the tray and on the desktop, when clicked neither of them open
I'm running windows 7professional. it has worked before, but I have just installed more ram, because firefox seems to use a lot of RAM

Locate the Firefox program directory and selecting the <code>firefox.exe</code> file from this folder.
Try starting Windows in Safe Mode with network connections enabled.

How can I get Firefox version 5? I use an application for banking that doesn't work with version 6 yet.

I am using an application for banking with Bank of America that doesn't work with Firefox 6 so I need to install Firefox 5 until Bank of America can update their app to work with Firefox 6. Can you tell me how to find the download for Firefox 5?
Thank you

I have an old iPhoto version and it still works with Mavericks, the version before yours, that is puzzling.

Hi i was wondering wether i can retrieve (get back) any photos when they have been deleted (by the way it wernt backed up)

This is my first ever comment

If you don't have a backup or never imported your pics to your computer, then no you can't retrieve it.

I can't get Firefox to open on another person's desktop on the same computer.

My sister and I share a computer. I downloaded 4.0 on my desktop.
Her Firefox old or new will not open. I tried to download 4.0 from her desktop. Several times. It just will not open. The said thing is she lost all her bookmarks.
I uninstalled and retried etc,

Did you try a new profile?
Did you check all security software?

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

Try this as a first step; 
Clear the Cache '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"''''' 
and 
Remove Cookies '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"''''' 
If there is still a problem,
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
While you are in safe mode;
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.

How can I get Firefox to NOT use DDE? If I uncheck it in Windows XP "Folder options" it keeps getting re-checked. When checked, it takes minutes to get Firefox to open on a page linked from Outlook.

Do you mean to create a clickable hyperlink while composing a new mail?
Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic. 
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button). 
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink. 
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

How can I get firefox to shut down automatically when not in use for an hour

How can I get firefox to shut down automatically when not in use for an hour

Sorry, there is no feature for that built into Firefox, and I haven't seen an add-on to add that feature to Firefox.

We are running firefox 3.0.5. When I log onto any of our machines I can't get Firefox to run. I get the Close Firefox popup and the message Firefox is already running

I can't get firefox to run on any machines. My colleagues can.
I can't find any trace of Firefox running and it still complains
that there is an existing firefox process running.

Also, and although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
