I can't run Mozilla.

I have a Windows XP and I suddenly can't open Mozilla. I have reinstalled Firefox lots of times but it still doesnt work. It just doesn't come up the screen all i get is the message "the specified path is not found". Please help..

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
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.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Can't run JDK 1.5.0 plug-in on Mozilla 1.7.3 (Windows)

    Hi!
    I've just downloaded and installed NetBeans IDE + JDK 5.0 for Windows and can't run any java under Mozilla (v1.7.3).
    What should I do?
    Doesn't this JDK come with the Mozilla plug-in? If so, how do I make it work?
    Should I download and install JRE 1.5.0 also?
    Thanks!

    On windows, at the end of the installation procedure, you should get a dialog asking you if you want to associate the Java plugin with certain browsers. If you missed this the first time around, you might want to uninstall and reinstall Java. I did this yesterday on Windows XP professional, and can run 1.5.0 -compiled applets under Mozilla 1.7.2.

  • Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding.

    Hi, I got the problem with Firefox 27.0.1. I can not run Selenium on Firefox after login a website for automation testing. The browser is not responding. However when I close Nunit, the page is back to be normal. The title is returned to the name of website without "not responding". I sure this problem did not happen on Firefox version 26. I just got this problem when firefox upgrading automatically to version 27. Please help me fix this problem because it is very important for my work. If you need more information pls send your concerns via my email address.
    Thanks so much

    Hi, the work around suggested above should put you in working mode in the meantime. However to help investigate the issue it is possible to analyze what is not loading or taking a long time by analyzing the network traffic or http headers of the Nunit web page.

  • How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

    How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

    The mozilla-derived Firefox-based browser known as Tenfourfox does a fair job and is about due for code upgrade near the end of  this year from version 17 to version 24. Tenfourfox can run in Tiger 10.4.11 + Leopard 10.5.8.
    http://www.tenfourfox.com/
    I have & use both Tenfourfox + SeamonkeyPPC versions in my PPC G4 Macs. (My third choice is iCab...)
    These both play well together and can be run simultaneosly without odd effects, unlike what can happen if you were to run the original Firefox and then launch Tenfourfox; as those share resources. I use SeaMonkey PPC for my web mail login via google Notifier, and have that set as the default browser through use of Safari's preference settings. Even though my first browser choice is Tenfourfox.
    You can choose to 'enable plugins' of stuff that by default is turned off in tenfourfox, for security reasons, such as an older no-longer supported version of adobe's Flash. However, video such as youtube content will often automatically work OK from most sites via Tenfourfox now.
    {There's also a seamonkey 'modern version' for intel-based macs w/ later OS X, not at the seamonkeyPPC site...}
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I have Mac OSX, version 10.4.11; I loaded Firefox 4, lost 3.6.16, and now I found out I can't run Firefox 4. Can I get 3.6.16 back?

    I have Mac OSX, version 10.4.11; I loaded Firefox 4, lost 3.6.16, and now I found out I can't run Firefox 4. Can I get 3.6.16 back? I am not sure what to do. I dragged my old firefox icon to the desktop and it disappeared. The new icon has a white circle with a slash, and won't open because I have an older version Mac

    You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

  • Running Mozilla Foxfire, we get error message:Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. Assertion failed. Program File:common\npn_gate.cpp Expression:pPluginShim.

    When running Mozilla Foxfire we get the error message listed in question. It asks: For information on how your program can cause assertion failure, see Visual C++ documentation on asserts (Pree retry to debug the application - JLT must be enabled. Then offers "Abort" - "Retry" - "Ignore". I do not know what this is telling me to do. Where is Visual C++ documentation on asserts. What do I need to do to keep from getting this error message?

    In the past, this issue was associated with the Flash player's protected mode, and particularly with out-of-date RealPlayer-related add-ons that interacted poorly with Flash 11.3 and higher.
    To see whether you are experiencing a Flash-related interaction, try this: temporarily disable "protected mode" as described in this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    If that bypasses the error, check your other add-ons and remove, disable, or update them. Then allow Flash to run in protected mode as designed, restart Firefox, and test again.

  • Mac 10.7.3, ff wouldn't open pdf files on google search, tried web soln. get ff running can't run 2nd ff error, reboot, reloaded (12?) ff, HELP

    mac 10.7.3, intel dual proc, ff was running great but not opening pdf files from web pages (just opened new page and blank), found ff forum solutions to delete a file, found such file and deleted it, now ff shows error "ff running, can't run 2 ff at same time", rebooted several times, redownloaded ff several times, can't find any ff or mozilla files of any kind in activity monitor or HD, or any library, or in personal library etc,
    i think i have ff 12 now loaded, HELP, love ff, how to get it run again thanks

    Can you undelete the file you deleted?? Any idea what it was?
    Once you have your Firefox running again, try this recommendation from another thread:
    ''If using a Mac, go to the Firefox Plugins and disable the Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 10.1.3. This is a recent plugin update, and as soon as it was installed I noticed that PDFs wouldn't download.''

  • Why do I get this error message /opt/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: 399: /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: not found

    kubuntu 10.04
    firefox 10.0.2
    I downloaded and installed firefox 10.0.2 but when I...
    1. click the desktop icon nothing happens.
    2. use terminal mode and type firefox I get the following error message:
    /opt/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: 399: /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: not found
    How do I fix this?

    In short, I used kpackagekit to uninstall firefox. Then used synaptic to uninstall firefox. After that I manually scanned the computer for residual DIRs. In the end, I noticed that I still had 3 DIRs containing firefox: /opt/firefox, /usr/lib/firefox-10.0.1, /usr/lib64/firefox-10.0.1
    So removing firefox didn't work as expected.
    As it turns out, the copy of firefox residing in /opt/firefox is v3.5.3, but I have a current version in /usr/lib and /usrlib64. For some reason the, new install didn't replace the copy in /opt/firefox and the /usr/bin scripts firefox and run-mozilla.sh point to /opt/firefox.
    So when I use terminal mode and type firefox I get the cited error message. When I use my desktop icon it hangs.
    My remedy for this was to due the following:
    1. track down the location of the desktop icon: /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
    2. edit the file: sudo pico /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
    3. modify entry to: EXEC=/usr/lib/firefox-10.0.1 /firefox.sh u% ( save and exit)
    4. modify terminal command: firefox
    5. track down the location of the firefox command: /usr/bin/firefox and /usr/bin/
    firefox.ubuntu
    6. remove symbolic link: rm /usr/bin/firefox
    7. remove symbolic link: rm /usr/bin/firefox
    8. create new symbolic link: ln -sT /usr/lib/firefox-10.0.1/firefox.sh firefox
    9. create new symbolic link: ln -sT /usr/lib/firefox-10.0.1/firefox.sh firefox.ubuntu
    Everything works now as it should.
    I believe the cause of this problem was related to the fact that the mozilla-team made a change to the location of their upgrade/update libraries which affected the entries in the file: /etc/apt/sources.list. When the ppa library location changed, my kubuntu version 10.04 didn't make this change and residual copies of firefox were left behind and DIRs /usr/bin and /opt/firefox were not modified.
    Perhaps my experience will help others that tread this path.
    Maybe somebody can explain to me why we need 3 DIRs for firefox: /opt/fire ; /usr/lib ; /usr/lib64

    How can I run two different FireFox versions?
    I want to be able to run FF3.6 and FF10
    But it seems its set up the way that I can only install one of them.

    Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

    Try to set the gfx.content.azure.enabled pref to false or if this didn't help disable Direct2D by setting the gfx.direct2d.disabled pref to true on the about:config page and leave hardware acceleration otherwise enabled.
    That way you still have the benefit from hardware acceleration, but may not suffer from rendering issues.
    You can also try to uninstall Windows update KB2670838 if you have this update.

  • Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

    Question
    Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

    Norton has had over 5 months to work in their Firefox extensions, since the API's were locked for 4.0. Ask Norton why they pull this crap every time Mozilla releases a new version of Firefox. When Firefox 3.6 was released mid-January 2010, it took Norton until almost April to come up with a working version of their Firefox extensions.

    Thank you for your quick response Philipp.
    I have used this extension with previous versions of Firefox and had no issues. Why is this a problem on the latest version? Do you know of another "TimeLineRemove" extension that will work with this version of Firefox? Will reverting to an earlier version of Firefox solve this issue allowing me to continue using "TimeLineRemove"?
