Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

  • Installed webutil but can't get it to work - IE just crashes

    As far as I cam make out, I followed the installation instructions, copied files to the right places etc for webutil. But when I try and run my form, IE just crashes out with a runtime error. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm using Forms 10.1.2.02 and IE 8.

    I seem to be getting somewhere now!
    I got past the initial crashing by first of all using the basejpi.htm, and including the jar files in the archive= lines in the config. At runtime I was prompted to accept the RegisterWebutil as coming from a trusted source. I ticked the box 'always trust'. Then I changed my config to use the webutil.htm, and it worked - crashed later, but I got past the initial! I think I might get this to work now. Thanks for the help though especially with the IE settings, as it wouldn't have worked without changing that.

  • Can't get update to work - error message is to input proxy address and proxy details

    I have my printer printing but can't seem to get it to connect to the internet to get any s/w updates.  I'm connected wirelessly and am using Windows XP.  I don't think I have a fixed proxy address.  What to do??

    What printer do you have?

  • Can not get updates to work

    When I go to updates they do not update anything

        Hello aces,
    I can imagine the frustration that you have experienced due to your applications not updating.  Many apps need those constant updates to keep them working efficiently!  Have you tested the connection on Wi-Fi to see if they will update?  There is a setting that will cause applications not to update over the 3G network.  Make sure Data Saver is turned off in the Settings.
    Menu>Settings>Battery and Data Manager>Data Saver>Data Saver>Uncheck.
    Please keep me updated on the status so that we can work further towards a solution, if needed.  I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thank You,

  • CS - Can't get updates to work

    I have installed CS (mac), but the CS2 compatibility update from 05 does not seem to work right. I install the update & all looks good, but when I open Indesign the next time & check for updates, the same CS2 compatibility update is there like I never installed it. I have tried to update several times, but no luck.
    Thanks for the help,
    Matt

    Hi there, this is my first post and apologises if it's not that clear.
    We're having the same issue with the CS 3.0.1 update.
    We've been through the update in the help menu and downloaded the 3.0.1 update directly from the adobe update page.
    The updater says the install was successful but when opening InDesign CS again the update has not been applied?
    Does anyone have any suggestions or a pointer in the right direction would be much appreciated?
    Thanks in advance
    Andy
    sorry I meant to mention I'm on an intel mac 10.4.11.

  • Firefox works perfectly on my home computer except for one user's desk top where it says that Firefox is configured to a proxy server that will not establish a connection. I have tried restarting but I can not get Firefox to work on just one desk top.

    I am running Windows Vista.

    See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
    You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection<br />
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

  • I updated my OS from 10.6.4., to 10.8.2 I want to buy iDVD and I Movie, but bought iPhoto and can't get it to work yet.  Hesistant to buy the others without now having the original applications on my laptop. Do I need to buy the older versions first?

    I updated my OS from 10.6.4., to 10.8.2.  I want to buy iDVD and iMovie, but I bought iPhoto and can't get it to work yet.  I'm hesitant to buy the others without now having the original applications on my laptop. Do I need to buy the older versions first?  They are probably on my Snow Leopard install disc, but I am now running Mt Lion that I bought, and downloaded a few days ago...so I don't want to insert the old OS disc, thinking it might want to reinstall the old OS...  Thanks,

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  

  • Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    You have to look at the email protocol being used.  the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
    Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
    Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

  • I can't play the downloaded iTunes movie on my newly updated iMac to OS X Maverick. Why not? And How can I get it to work? Thanks.

    I can't play the downloaded iTunes movie on my newly updated iMac to OS X Maverick. Why not? And How can I get it to work? Thanks.

    Do you get any error message?
    What actually happens when you open it?
    What app are you trying to play the files inside? Try iTunes.
    I assume these files have DRM from the iTunes store. The Mac needs to be authorized to play them, open iTunes & select Authorize in the store menu, then sign in with the Apple ID that purchased the files.
    Select the iTem in iTunes & get info on it (from the File menu) & you can see the account name that it belongs to.

  • I just updated my phone and it is now stuck with usb cable and itunes logo and itunes on my computer says I have to restore.  Can I get my phone working again without loosing my photos?

    I just updated my phone and it is now stuck with usb cable and itunes logo and itunes on my computer says I have to restore.  Can I get my phone working again without loosing my photos?

    There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
    Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

  • My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
