I cannot get Firefox to open for the past three days--help?

When I click on the Firefox icon, the page comes up, but then there is an error--says page can't load, etc., etc. I have uninstalled Firefox, and reinstalled it, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?

I tried your suggestion of pressing the shift key while launching Firefox. What happened is, this action highlighted in blue several icons on my desktop including Windows Internet Explorer.It then preceded to open Windows Internet Explorer. It was worth a try. I tried the control key while trying to launch FireFox and that did not do anything.

I cannot upload any pictures to Flickr for the past three days, I just get the upload screen which when I click on upload does nothing I'm using PSE12, I have had no problems in the past , I still have had no response to this post and it has been several weeks since initially posted, is there anyone awake at Adobe, can someone give me advice or is there total lack of interest once the product has been purchased I have been a customer of PSE for many year since PSE6 now on 12 but lack of response may cause me to rethink

Turn off your iPad and put it in recovery mode. Try to restore it via iTunes.

There is a problem on Windows 8 with Firefox 19 and AMD Radeon HD 6XXX/7XXX graphic display cards.
This issue is currently being investigated in bug 830531.
*Bug 830531 - [Win8] crash in XPC_WN_Helper_NewResolve mainly with AMD Radeon HD 6290/6310/6320/7290/7310/7340
If you have one of those display cards then best is to stay with or downgrade to Firefox 18.0.2 for now.

Cannot attach files in Hotmail for the past two days

For the past two days I have been unable to attach photos or documents to my e-mails in Hotmail. The icons and options still appear on the screen but I cannot click them.

This has just happened to me. XP SP3, Firefox 3.6.10 . The various attachment icons arent clickable BUT IE8 is ok. When I click `New` to send a new email I notice that the last thing that happens as the new screen appears is that the 5 attatchment icons go a bit smaller than usual.This problem wasnt there on 12 Oct 2010 but is now (16th). On the 13th the autoupdate for all the monthly Microsoft patches ran. No errors. Will have to switch to IE till this is fixed

Hi mcminn_sarah97,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like either the iTunes Store app or Music app are quitting unexpectedly on your iPhone. I recommend restarting the phone first:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, there are a few more steps that you can try.
If the iTunes Store app is quitting unexpectedly, try the steps in this article next:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
If the Music app is quitting unexpectedly, try this step next:
Go to Settings > General > Reset, then choose Reset All Settings: All your preferences and settings are reset.
Reset iPhone settings
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph7a2a9399b
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content

iTunes: Restoring iOS software

All the best,

I have an IPad 1. For the past three days I've played Sims Freeplay without trouble. Today it won't even open. It starts to, then goes black, then all the apps are visible again. Any idea of what is going on?

I have been playing EA's Sims Freeplay for three days. Today the app will not open. It begins to, then goes black, then all the apps are there. FB is doing it now, too. Bookworm plays fine, as do other apps like ebooks and weather bug. I don't know much about what goes on with an IPad, so any help is appreciated.

- check the app store to see if the apps have an update available
- delete and redownload the apps

Apple is not here. Apple does not answer questions here. This is a user to user support forum and the poor behavior that you have exhibited here has caused the ASC forum hosts to remove most of your rants and sarcastic comments about Apple.
If you wish to have someone help you with the issue, then you need to behave and carefully explain what you are encountering when you try to access the iTunes App Store with the iTunes app on a Mac or PC or the App Store app on an iOS device. Please include any alerts that pop up when you try to make your purchase.

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 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".

Started to clear browse history and now I can't open Firefox at all for the past four hours

I am on a MacBook Pro and recently was prompted to upgrade Firefox. Since the upgrade, I found surfing the internet harder as I frequently found Firefox...not crashing...but it would get stuck trying to open up or to open up a new page or site. I looked this up in Firefox support and found something called "hanging" and this sounded like what I was experiencing. Looking through I tried finding the various solutions. Nothing helped. I did try to clear the browsing history. Each time I tried that, it locked up with the spinning thinking wheel. Then, I tried resetting the preferences to clear on exit and then exited. Ever since then, I cannot get Firefox to launch to the internet at all. I get "not responsive" on a right-click. Please help. I love my Firefox. - Lynda

Hello, I have Acrobat XI Pro for which I pay by monthly subscription. Each month, for the past three months or so, at renewal time, I receive a note stating that my trial period has expired and I cannot open my Acrobat Files. I have telephoned three or four times each time this happens and have been told that the matter has been resolved - it has not! At one time I had paid inadvertently for three account for Acrobat XI Pro running at the same time - I only need 1. I'm afraid that I may have just opened a second account by mistake in order to open my files. I repeat, I only require one account. Would you please advise and assure me that this matter has finally been resolved and that I will no longer receive these notifications each month..

I don't work for Adobe but it seems to me you might be signing in to Acrobat with the wrong Adobe ID.
Check the Adobe ID you use in Acrobat.
Check this Adobe ID on Adobe's to make sure that it has an active subscription.
