I downloaded Firefox, can't get it to open, show up in Apps folder or dock, or run the program...help?

I downloaded Firefox, shows up on desktop and need to drag it to my Applications folder on my Mac. I did, and it doesn't show up with the icon that it shows on here, and when I click on it in the Apps folder to open, it doesn't. It also doesn't let me drag it into my dock...help???

Do you see that toolbar in View > Toolbars ?

  • HT4623 Itunes update failed; tried to reinstall; get error message that I need to confirm I have authority to run the program?

    I plugged my iPad to my computer this morning and it said there was a new version of IOS available. Tried to install.
    Install failed.
    Now itunes won't open:  "The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
    Went to www.itunes.com, downloaded and tried to install.  Install failis saying I need to verify that I have credentials to run the program. Choices: Abort, Try again, Ignore.  Needless to say the only choice that works in Abort, so I can't connect my iPad to iTunes.
    Is there a way to uninstall the program and then try again?
    Or other fix?

  • I downloaded firefox,i cant get it to open, yet when i tried to delete it, windows explorer says firefox is running, even though i have no internet on

    i was at a hotel using wireless, but suddenly my computer shut down, saying something about a blue screen, when i turned it back on, it wouldnt fully load the games i play on facebook, so i tried a lot of things, then i downloaded mozzilla, nothing happens when i click on it so i tried to delete it but my computer says its running and i have to close it first, but i cant cos i cant get it to open!!!!!!!

    Many thanks for responding. Your suggestion led me to this website:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20is%20already%20running%20but%20is%20not%20responding
    which infers the problem exists and seems to confirm the only way is to restart the machine.
    Not being computer literate I cannot tell whether or not you can get around the 'lock/unlock' problem! What I need is an easy 'fix' but there does not appear to be one!!
    Thanks for trying!

  • How do I get you to stop showing me all this unwanted crap and just run the damned browser?

    I have 3.6 downloaded but it wont run because I can't get passed all the other crap customizing and just run the damned browser. That is all I am interested in, none of the other bull crap. What is so hard to understand? Keep it simple stupid. All I need is the Browser OKAY! Everybody in the world don't want that crap! Make it simple for people like me who hate this computer generation because it is all becoming about laziness and stupidity. Computers make people stupid not better. They are only a tool but technology and so called educators have taken the usefullness to far and most kids can't do math or history without some kind of cheating device. What are you gonna do when the computers die and the internet fails? Get a pen and paper, read some books and take a few investigative notes. Computers are not the answer to our problems.

    Make sure that the getpersonas.com site is listed as an install exception:

  • IBook (iPad 2) download error - can't get book to open

    I went to the iBook Store and tried to download a 'Sample' of the book: Mac OS X Lion, by Robin Williams (Peachpit Press), but the download crashed.  I was left with a book icon with the little blue progress bar at 100% but it's stuck there.  Can't delete it, can't open it.  So I then decide to buy the full book and it's download crashes too.  When the book icon appears, I open it but it's just a book with two blank pages and no pages will turn.  I can get to the Contents page but every section heading is double-listed.  Clearly everything is messed up.  How can I solve this?  I don't want to trash the iBook app as I am in the middle of reading another book and don't want to lose my place or bookmarks.  Thanks.

    Try shutting down the iBook app completely by double clicking the home button, when the multi-task window opens find the iBook app then hold you finger on it for a few seconds it will start to wiggle and a red minus sign will show up in the upper left corner tap the minus sign to close the app, then try the iBook app.

    I tried to download a Licensing update, but can't get that to open.????
    My machine had originally been a clone of another Mac. Not it looks like a brand new computer.
    Possibly there is something in system preferences to change? I turned off Firewall and allow downloads from all parties.
    Thank You for you help!

    150:30 means the licensing failed. Photoshop can't be moved like other programs from another drive or from backup.
    I would suggest a reinstall to fix it. Anytime you move Photoshop from from drive to another, it breaks licensing. A install is the quickest way. to fix it.
    When you are done with the install, apply all CS4 updates.  Product updates

  • How can I get files to open automatically upon download?

    I would like files I download to open automatically and for the download window to be turned off. I know how to turn off the download window, but cannot get files to automatically download.

    Hi JJMack. Thanks for getting back to me.
    I think I've created confusion about what I want. All I want is to end up with a file that is flattened so that I can save it as a tiff without getting a warning that it contains layers. Please correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve always assumed I should always flatten a file before I save it as a tiff unless I specifically want to retain layers or transparency. I’m only talking here of files that open with a single layer: ie. Layer 1. I assume that if I don’t flatten such files the resultant files will be unnecessarily big?
    The only reason I keep saying I want a Background layer is that I know that a flattened file will only have a Background layer. I don’t have any desire for a Background layer per se. I certainly don’t want to add extra layers - quite the opposite.
    So perhaps the question I should have asked should have been:
    How can I get files to open 'ready-flattened' by default so I can save them directly to tiff without having to manually flatten them every time?
    Cheers
