I cannot refresh pages in firefox anymore since i updated to firefox 4.0

I cannot refresh pages. Not when I opened a file, nor when i have open a webpage.
When i want to refresh a file, i have to reopen it again.

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload (Refresh) buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again. For more details on customizing the toolbar see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar
You can also press F5 to reload a page.

I have a 80gb ipod classic and i cannot get it to sync anymore since I updated my itunes. Does anyone have any suggestions on what i should do?

Does the device show up in Windows Explorer when connected?
Have you tried going into Control Panel > Programs & Features > iTunes > Repair?
Have you proved the cable with a different device, or the device's connectivity with a different computer?

Since I updated to FireFox 9 all the link icons have disappeared

When I open a new tab, the cursor doesn't go automatically into the navigation field anymore, since I have reinstalled Firefox yesterday. Is there a fix?

Did you remove your personal data when uninstalling and have created a new default profile folder?
It is possible that you previously had an extension that set focus to the location bar.

For some reason, I cannot seem to print to my printer Dell 1355cnw from Firefox anymore. I'm using Firefox version 13.0 on a Mac 10.6.8. Any thoughts or ideas?

For some reason, I cannot seem to print to my printer Dell 1355cnw from Firefox anymore. I'm using Firefox version 13.0 on a Mac 10.6.8. I recently upgraded my printer from another Dell network printer, which worked absolutely fine. Any thoughts or ideas would be hugely appreciated?

Since the last update of firefox, the time has been 25 to 35 seconds to enter bookmarks or even the time it takes to page down when it used to take a few seconds. can you check why it taking so long since the update on firefox.

since the last update a few days ago of firefox, the time has been 25 to 35 seconds to enter bookmarks or even the time it takes to page down when it used to take a few seconds. can you tell me why it taking so long since the update on firefox. may another update is in order.

I have now done pretty much every suggestion that even vaguely applies in the various helpful link provided. Thanks for the ongoing help. =)
I have managed to get FireFox's start-up memory usage down to about 100,000K, however it appears that memory usage keeps creeping up the longer FireFox is open. (It seems to top out around 500,000K.) And I'm not talking open for many hours or days - but rather for minutes and possibly up to a couple hours. (Based on how long I've been fiddling with all this so far.)
On the plus side, it does not appear GreaseMonkey is the culprit since with it active or disabled this memory creep still occurs. Although having GreaseMonkey enabled definitely increases the rate of memory creep. Though once it has creeped up to 150,000+K, disabling GM does not make it drop back down to the starting 100,000K.
I should point out I run a MacBook Pro and use Bootcamp to partition the hard drive and run it as a Windows 7 PC about half the time. I am running it literally as a PC or, alternately, as a Mac depending on which hard drive I choose to load. (I'm not "windowing" it.) This problem exists regardless of whether I am using the PC or the Mac. These repairs have been made currently on the PC side, and I will attempt them all again on the Mac side. I find it odd that this enormous memory drain has occurred on 3 different computers at the same time. (The two "halves" of my home laptop as well as the PC at my work place.)

Cannot dowload YOUTUBE Videos through RealPlayer anymore since your update...I can through IE, which I hate!

Since I updated to Firefox 5.0 , I am unable to download YOUTUBE Videos through RealPlayer...that download Icon has disappeared. I opened I.E. and guess what! I can still download through them...however I absolutely HATE I.E. and love Firefox.
What has changed? What did you guys do?

Dear Pat, please forgive my total ignorance about programs. I'm confused as to why when I had only my Windows Media Player with a plain Adobe I could watch all videos and such, and now suddenly I can't watch them unless I install the Adobe Flash Player and a number of other programs too???
I try to avoid using up so much more memory as programs take, as my computer is pretty old (though works well) and it doesn't have much capacity for installing more memory.
"If you want to play Youtube videos, you will need Adobe Flash Player."
If there's no other choice, I'll install Adobe Flash Player, but will this be sufficient to view videos/Youtube, etc. without having to install more programs?
"If you want to play downloadable videos such as MPEG files, you will need Windows Media Player."
Does "downloadable videos such as MPEG files," mean to copy a video to another place via downloading it? I wondered how to do that when sometimes people ask me to email them a video and didn't know I could use the Windows Media Player which I already have...
"For other file formats you may need other players such as QuickTime or Real Player."
Would you kindly tell me which are the "other file formats" and how can I tell if they are really necessary for me?
"To see what version of Flash Player you have, click on this link http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/ "
I must not have it since each time I try to open a video or Youtube it doesnt let me view it and a flashing popup urges me to "GET THE LATEST FLASH PLAYER".
"P.S. If you don't need/use Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition, you can uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs."
Thank you for telling me, I've uninstalled it and am happy! :) Also thank you for alerting me to NOT install Adobe Media Player.
So far I haven't been able to open any of the videos, Youtube, etc. I receive, so will appreciate it so much if you and/or others could help me understand this, for which, my deepest thanks!! :) Adela

Since the update on Firefox 6.0...

Since the update on Firefox 6.0, all web pages with Flash content dont work anymore. Firefox freezes and I have to shut it down with the Task Manager. There always remain a plugin-container process opened, which I cant even terminate in the Taks Manager. Pls dont release updates if they are no stable or not enough tested. I would like to stick to one broweser, but if FF continues to have such problems I am gonna switch to Opera.

Flash player works ok for me on an XP with Firefox 6, and other Firefox versions. Possibly it is something on your computer interfering with the use of Flashplayer, or maybe even a malware problem. Maybe the hardware acceleration settings of Firefox or FlashPlayer are a problem, or what about the Bit Torrent accelerator I see mentioned in your system details.
It would certainly be worth looking for any background tasks or downloads your computer is doing when you see problems.

Ever since I updated to Firefox 7.1, my computer won't go to the internet when I double-click the Mozillz Firefox icon, like it normally does; I have to restart my computer to be able to access the internet. Why?

There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page to log you in automatically. 
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server. 
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you anymore and you need to sign in once again.

Why do I get Partially Encrypted Webpage since I updated to Firefox Version 16; when they were Fully Encryptrd before updating ?

Since I updated to Firefox Version 16 on October 20, 2012; every Secure webpage I go to warns that it is Partially Encrypted. These are webpages I have been to many times before without any problem.
How can you Bank Online when this happens ?
Does someone have any ideas on how to correct this problem ?
Thanks in advance.

You shouldn't get such a warning on every web page.
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I have several very important school related documents on my iPad in the Pages app. Ever since i updated to iOS5, i can no longer open any documents in Pages that I made before I updated. Please help

I have several very important school related documents on my iPad in the Pages app. Ever since i updated to iOS5, i can no longer open any documents in Pages that I made before I updated. Please help

Without the iPad connected, open up iTunes on your computer. Go to iTunes/Preferences/Devices and delete the backups that you're absolutely certain do not have the documents. Refer to figure below.
iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "NO" to creating a backup. (You don't want to create a new backup that does not have the docs.) You will then be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad. This time, say "yes."
Repeat all of the above as required until you get the docs.

Ever since I updated to Firefox 4.0, I can no longer open links in a new tab by holding ctrl and clicking the link. Any help?

Ever since I updated to Firefox 4.0, I can no longer open links in a new tab by holding ctrl and clicking the link. The only way I can open a link in a new tab is if I right click a link and select "open in a new tab" in the dropdown menu, but ctrl + click is so much easier and faster. Any clue how to fix this?

Some other users have fingered the Ask toolbar as the cause of this problem. You can try disabling or removing it here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Does that help?

I have pretty much the same problem. Disabling hardware acceleration does NOT fix it. Firefox has never been this unstable. What's going on??

Since I updated to firefox 3.6 I keep gettin multiple popup windows. This did not happen until after the update. The popups appear as regular windows so popup blockers can not stop them.

Since I updated to firefox 3.6 I keep gettin multiple pop up windows. This did not happen until after the update. The pop ups appear as regular windows so pop up blockers can not stop them. Why has the new update made my laptop more vulnerable. updates are supposed to be improvements!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== as soon as I updated to ver 3.6

Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged.
What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed.

Since I updated to Firefox 8 on Mac OSX 10.4.11, Firefox will not open anymore (not even previous versions downloaded via Safari). I get the error message 'You cannot use Firefox with this version of Mac OSX' (translated from Dutch).

I have tried creating a new profile, problem remains the same.
None of the 3 accounts on this desktop can use Firefox anymore. This has never been a problem. Today (14.11.11) I updated Firefox to 8, and nothing anymore. Via Safari I downloaded Firefox 7 to reinstall, same error message.

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do have) '''''and''''' OSX 10.5 or higher (your version is OSX 10.4).

The good news is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.
