I cannot get Firefox to come up--it tells me that it is unable to load.

I have been trying to get on Firefox for several days now, and it always gives me error messages that state:
Unable to connect --
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at home.mysearch.com
Please help!

The Firefox Home app for iOS is not the Firefox browser but rather for to synce with your desktop Firefox to have your Firefox desktop history, bookmarks and open tabs on your iPhone/iPad.

We have no plans to release the full Firefox browser for iOS. The iOS SDK agreement requires apps to use Apple's own JavaScript engine (or none at all, like Opera Mini which downloads pre-rendered pages from Opera's servers and cannot run JavaScript code in the client). Because of this, we have no supported way to distribute Firefox's rendering and JavaScript engine to iPhone users.

  • Why does firefox now tell me that it is unable to load the browser because firefox is already running?

    After the last 2 updates I have had trouble with the browser. It periodically tells me that I am unable to run firefox because the process is already running. I then need to go to the task manager, stop the firefox process before I can launch the browser

  • I cannot get Firefox to come up. It says it is running but cannot find it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Please help.

    When I try to bring Firefox up it does not show that it is. If I shut my computer down it will come up the first time and as long as I leave it open it is okay. When I log out it does not come back up the next time. I am not having trouble with Chrome or Explorer.

  • I cannot get firefox to download -- a box comes up about firefox being a binary file (?) and do I want to save it or cancel -- I was told to save it, which I did but, after saving, I tried to get it to download again and this same box came back up

    Cannot get firefox 4.0 to download - saved binary code download - download still doesn't work - cannot use computer until this is resolved

    For Flash, could you try downloading the "full" installers from this page:
    https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    In the first table, there are two rows for Windows: one for the ActiveX control for IE, and one for the plugin for Firefox. You might want to grab both. And try the .msi files instead of the .exe files to see whether those work better.
    Will either of those install?
    It's odd that on a newly rebuilt system your More System Details shows that you have a user.js file, which is an optional settings files used to override your previous session settings. This is not part of the standard Firefox installation, so if you did not create that file yourself, you may want to investigate or delete it. This article has more information on that: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

  • My Firefox crashed and I cannot get it to come back up. I have a MAC. What now?

    My Firefox crashed. I had been cleaning out some downloads and I don't know if that had anything to do with it but now I cannot get it to come back up. Help.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I have tried removing Firefox but when I try to do that it says that I need to close firefox - but of course it is not open. I have waited a long time but nothing has happened so I am getting desperate Thanks -- Jerry

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * 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.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

  • I cannot get firefox to launch

    I cannot get firefox to launch. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall without luck. Yesterday I did notice that my menu bar was missing and tried to reinstall a Google toolbar, but, had to close the computer before it was finished. Not sure if the two are related.

  • I cannot get Firefox as my homepage, it's covered by Xfinity. Please help.

    ''duplicate - locking - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/835447''
    When Adobe updated it shut my computer down. When it restarted Firefox was not available. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but still cannot get Firefox, still nothing but Xfinity.
    How do I get Firefox back as my homepage?

    Xfinity made itself your Firefox Start Page? You can change that. Check out the tips in this article: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help].
    If that doesn't stick, it's possible you have an Xfinity add-on. You could check here and disable it if you find one:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
    On the left side, click Extensions
    Any luck?

    Have tried to uninstall and reinstall.

    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!

  • I cannot get firefox to open, could security setting interfer? I use AVG

    On Wednesday 9/28 Comcast changed my modem and now I cannot get Firefox to open, when I click my mouse on the icon I get a brief hourglass and that quickly goes away and Firefox doesn't open.

    The extension(s) that AVG installs can certainly be a problem, disable "AVG Safe" for a temporary solution, but it is better to reinstall AVG without the Link Scanner component, and as always be vigilant in rejecting additional crapware, please review all of the following but particularly information concerning "AVG Safe".

  • I dropped my iPad and the screen went blank.  I cannot get it to come back on.

    I dropped my ipad and the screen went blank.  I cannot get it to come back on.

    Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.  If that does not work you need to take the iPad to an Apple store genius bar to have it evaluated by the technicians.

  • I had to change a password stored in Firefox, and now I cannot get Firefox to remember a new password.

    As stated, I was required to change a password, yet the old password still appeared in the field, so I went into settings and deleted the old one, but now I cannot get Firefox to save the new password. And yes, I have wasted a lot of time attempting the "solutions" on the help sites, but nothing has worked. Thank you for any help.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
    The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving form data like name and password.
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox store form data like names and passwords.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered
    Note that Firefox won't auto-fill saved form data automatically when autocomplete=off is used, so you need to double-click the empty name field to get a drop-down list.
