    Hi there,
    You could try performing a clean installation: [[Knowledge Base Article]] :
    Some Firefox issues can be resolved by downloading a new Firefox installer from Mozilla.com, then closing Firefox, deleting the Firefox application folder (program files) and reinstalling Firefox. If this does not help, or if you would rather completely remove Firefox and start over instead of completing all the troubleshooting steps, follow these steps:
    1. Download the latest official version of Firefox from Mozilla.com.
    * You should avoid unofficial download sites that bundle Firefox with other software such as the Google Toolbar.
    2. If you wish to retain your current profile, you should make a backup copy of it. See Backing up your information for instructions.
    3. Uninstall Firefox and make sure you remove the Firefox application (program) folder and your Firefox personal data (user data and settings) - see Uninstalling Firefox for instructions.
    4. Reinstall Firefox - see Installing Firefox for instructions.
    5. When Firefox is started for the first time, the Import Wizard will appear and a new profile will be created.
    6. Verify that the issue no longer appears.
    7. If you made a backup of your old profile and wish to restore your old information, see Recovering important data from an old profile. For troubleshooting purposes, only copy the files corresponding to your bookmarks and saved passwords.
    8. Reinstall your extensions and themes one by one to determine if any specific one is causing the issue.

  • I lost my ipod at the arena todat and I need to know how to find it ! thanks .

    I lost my ipod touch today at the arena and i need to know how to find it ! thanks

    Keep looking.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • When using facebook my words are really small so i need to know how i can make them back larger

    Somehow I changed the size of my characters only when using facebook, so I would like to know how to change them back to regular size because they are really small. It's only like this when using facebook on firefox because I tried on internet explorer and it's fine.

    ctrl-+ is the easiest way (as in, hold down ctrl and press the + key, multiple times if needed). It might be [mac button]-+ on macs, I'm not sure.

  • I've just upgraded to 7.1 and I need to know, How do I get the page that shows me current eventsand sports to open when I start Firefox?

    also when will 7.1 be compatible with Yahoo?

    Hello Jane.
    No, that feature is not in Firefox. You may want to install an extension that lets you do that, though. For example, this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/9275/

  • Firefox is using large amounts of CPU time and disk access, and I need to know how to shut down most of this so I can actually use the browser.

    Firefox is a very busy piece of software. It's using large amounts of CPU time and disk access. It puts my usage at low priority, so I have to wait for some time to be able to use my pointer or keyboard. I don't know what it uses all that CPU and disk access time for, but it's of no use to me. It often takes off with massive use of resources when I'm not doing anything, and I may not have use of my pointer for several minutes. How can I shut down most of this so I can use the browser to get my work done. I just want to use the web site access part of the software, and drop all the extra. I don't want Firefox to be able to recover after a crash. I just want to browse with a minimum of interference from Firefox. I would think that this is the most commonly asked question.

    Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources

  • I am having to reinstall Adobe Pro because of a hard drive failure. I have lost the License Key and need to know how to retrieve it so I can reinstall the product.

    How do I retrieve the Adobe Pro License key/# so I can reinstall on my computer. I had to have the hard drive replaced due to failure and don't have the necessary information to reinstall Adobe Pro.

    As this was a 1,000 USD + purchase I did registered back in 2008 when I got my copy of "Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium". And now I'm in the same situation as you. I did go to manage my account and found my serial number.
    My disk crashed completely and I got everything back and running from my Time Machine backup. A few days ago Illustrator said there was a licensing issue. I tried all their gradual solutions up to the very last one: Reinstalling.
    I did that and inserted the Serial number; it worked. Now that I'm opening the Adobe Acrobat Pro it requires me to input the serial and it says is invalid!
    Anyone has an idea about this?

  • I got angry and erased both safari and firefox from my laptop. I am on my mom's computer now and I need to know how to get it back on my computer?

    Please help me figure out how to re-install either firefox or safari. I erased both of the applications and my laptop has no internet.

    I assume you say "no internet" access because of no browser.
    This terminal command will download Safari Version 5.0.5 to your home folder from terminal.app ( no browser)  copy and paste:
    curl -o Safari.dmg -R http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/Safari5/041-0564.20110413.Fi9pb/Safari5.0.5SnowLeopard.dmg
    note: you can cd to Desktop to download to Desktop instead of home folder, before you start the above download:
    cd to Desktop
    After download is complete click the .dmg and install as usual.
