I get an error whenever I open Firefox.

Since yesterday I got this error when I opened Firefox:
Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.
Then Firefox crashes and creates a crash repost.
Thought it was a bug with the beta version, so installed v3.6.12. Same thing. Tried uninstalling the whole thing then reinstalling, didn't help.
What can I do?

hello, the file you have referenced appears to be part of Webroot SecureAnywhere - try to remove that software in case you have it installed on your system.

I am getting this error when I open Firefox after DLing Firefox 5 (never seen this in any other previous version): FATAL ERROR : The dynamic C library contained in the extension file could not be found.

Hi there,
I'm getting this error when opening Firefox 5:
FATAL ERROR : The dynamic C library contained in the extension file could not be found.
I've never seen this error before... First time it happened was immediately after DLing Firefox 5 yesterday. I haven't DLed or installed anything else recently.
I see that you already have my system info. Any help is much appreciated!

Just read in another post that there is a known 49 character limit on the file path for QuickTime movies..

I get this error message when opening Firefox "onload error TypeError: TcFfUpdates.getTcPluginsInstance().getNewExtensionsList is not a function"

Each time I open Firefox I get the error message. I have unistalled the product, re-downloaded it and installed it with the same results. Otherwise the browser seems to work well.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I'm trying to extract audio files from my OLYMPUS Digital Voice Recorder VN-6200PC I am getting this error whenever I try to play its file type on my MacBook Pro,"The document "VN622195.WMA" could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized."

I am getting this error whenever I try to play its file type on my MacBook Pro,"The document “VN622195.WMA” could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized."

The mac has no native way to read .wma files (these are Windows Media Audio files). Do a search on the internet for playing wma files on a mac. You will find several links to solution (one is to use flip4mac).

I uninstalled Firefox once, reinstalled it and it ran. I had a problem so I did it again. Now it will not run and I get an error message saying that firefox is running and you can only run one at a time. I can't figure out what is running.

Because of a problem, I uninstalled Firefox once, reinstalled it and it ran. I had a problem so I uninstalled/reinstalled it again. Now it will not run. I get an error message saying that firefox is running and you can only run one at a time. I have uninstalled multiple times and can't figure out what is running. The is only one Firefox installed and it is not open. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.

Whenever I open Firefox 4.0 Beta 6, and try to log onto websites like Hotmail, Facebook RuneScape etc. it won't let me... Help?

Whenever I open Firefox 4.0 Beta 6, and try to long onto websites like Hotmail, Facebook RuneScape etc. it won't let me... I'm finding it frusrtrating and annoying since I cannot use Firefox 4.0 Beta 6. It works on other accounts excluding mine - What is this crap rigged or something? I have to resort to crappy Google Chrome and Safari since it messed up on both of my computers... Here's what it says when I double-click the short-cut: " Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features. " Although, it says the way to help - Can you like, dumb it down for me?
ALSO, here's what it says when I go onto http://runescape.com - It says: An error occurred during a connection to www.runescape.com:443.
Can't connect securely because the SSL protocol has been disabled.
(Error code: ssl_error_ssl_disabled)

See [[Secure Connection Failed]]
Create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

I have uninstalled and re-downloaded firefox 3 times now and each time I get and error message saying that firefox is not a valid windows image? I download it from your website but to no availe

This is the error message I get when I try and open Firefox:
''The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\WSOCK32.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.''

wsock32.dll is a Windows System file which is used to connect to the internet. if you are seeing this error message then its probably because either your Antivirus program might have moved this file to the Virus Chest or this file was Deleted mistakenly. Try Restoring this file from your Anti Virus software or check if it is still available in the Recycle Bin folder.
If above suggestions don't work, see this:
''This error is a tough one as it severely limits the programs or apps that you can run in Windows. This error pops up every time you try to open a program in windows, well not every program but most. Most spyware programs can’t be ran because this error pops up and prevents it.''
''One would think that the solution would be to repair the invalid .dll, but what ended up fixing it for me was extracting a fresh copy of explorer.exe. It looks like explorer.exe had gotten corrupt for some reason and was causing the bad image errors with certain .dll s.''
''To repair the problem open up '''msconfig''', it is actually one of the few programs in windows that would still open. To open it click on Start -> Run ->Type in '''msconfig''' and hit Enter. Once it is open click on the button that says “Expand File”. From there you will select the file that needs replaced and the location of the good file. Most of the time the good file can be found in the i386 folder of your XP install cd. My msconfig didn’t like the directory “C:\Windows\System32\ that was already filled in, so browse to the Windows\system32 directory and it should work just fine.''
''Expand the file, it will look like nothing happened, that is normal. Reboot the computer and you should not get the errors anymore.''
''To be safe, I expanded the Wsock32.dll file as well, so if for some reason your error still persists try expanding the dll file too.''

Check and tell if its working.

Hi Charlotte,
You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

The new disk was installed in France coz I am on holiday there. could there be something I need to change in my settings? I need help urgently as I am trying to finish an assignment and need to be able to access and download from icloud.
