I reinstalled Firefox and it won't work anymore

I reinstalled firefox since Adblock had stopped working. Before that, apart from adblock, everything was fine. Once reinstalled, Firefox opens and all I get is a black screen. I am still able to reduce it or close it bit nothing else comes up. I ve reinstalled it again and exact same problem. I have no idea what happened...

hello MOIM, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - first please try [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|updating your graphics driver]], or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.

I have spent hours trying to install Adobe Flash on Firefox and it won't work.

Seems a common problem.
What OS are you using, Windows 8 64 bit or something? Win 8 has an embedded Flash Player on it, and I have been told here that if this is the case, installing a new version of Flash Player is not necessary, but Fire Fox needs the plug in. They came out with a Flash Player plug in for use with Fire Fox that includes a debugger, but I have not tried it yet. (see below).
I have tried installing Flash Player 11.8.800.994 and 11.7.70.224...... and all crash. I think maybe some anti virus software needs to be disabled to allow installation, or the anti virus thinks its malware. I am also not sure if I need to also install Shockwave Flash for the whole thing to work?
Not sure the following will help and I am about to try it because I am going round in circles, too.
If 11.7 extended support release works for you, would you please update your success by adding a reply at the bottom of your original post, and let us know what you did that worked?
Good luck!
Announcement: Attention: Please read for important changes to Flash Player 10.3
Hide Details
Beginning July 9th, 2013 we will be updating the version of our "extended support release" from Flash Player 10.3 to Flash Player 11.7 for Mac and Windows. To continue to stay current with all available security updates you will need to install the 11.7 extended support release or update to the most recent available release (11.8, etc.) For full details, please see this blog post:

Update 32bit - 64 bit and network won't work anymore

Hi
I update (means clean install) Vista Business 32 bit to 64 bit and after that the network connection
won't work anymore. Problem is that vista won't get the IP-address from DHCP (tried in small office network with some cheap Zyxel and big corporate network with expensive stuff) and said that the connection is limited and network is unidentified. I try to
solve this problem with google and already try some regedit things, update Vista with SP2, update network controller driver and
try to limit speed & duplex to 100 Mbps and 10 Mbps but non of those works. Checked
also with linux and the computer gets the IP which mean that the network adapter works and there have to be some problems with this Vista Business 64 bit.
Does someone have any clues what is the problem and how to fix it?

Hi Thalian,
If you specify a static IP address, can you connect to Internet?
Meanwhile, what’s result of network troubleshooter?

UPGRADING TO 7.6 AND ITUNES WON'T WORK ANYMORE

When i tried to upgrade itunes to itunes 7.6 the installation and everything went smoothly, however when it was finished i went to open itunes and every time i do so something comes up saying itunes is configuring with windows. It always ends in saying there was an installation problem. I've done everything along the lines of uninstalling and restoring my computer. PLEASE somebody tell me what I did wrong?!? I NEED MY ITUNES!

I did a system restore under the accessiblity option under accesories in the start menu.
It took a very long time but it at least let me get my itunes back with no errors.
I'm not sure what the problem was but now it's working so i'm not complaining.
I'm not updating to 7.6 until I absolutelly have to. Hopefully, they will work out all the kinks before I have to update to it.

Got the Stratosphere update, and USB won't work anymore

Hi all.
At a loss here. I did the update today for the OS...and other than fixing the annoying cb# issue, and the change to the unlock, what I'm stumped on is when I connect to my PC, via USB, I get "Sorry! Process com.android.settings stoped unexpectely. Try again" and a force close box.
If I got to the USB Settings in the Settings area, it also faults when I tap on the USB settings.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

I'm with you, jrh4054. As I posted here: https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/868896#868896, I find that even though I get the error, I can still access the phone from my computer via USB to manage files. I plan to just ignore it, assuming that the functionality remains the same. It seems that it does not even occur every time. No way it's worth a factory reset.
The "debug" option that has been mentioned is found here: https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/862342#862342. I'm honestly not sure what it is supposed to accomplish.
As mkracing66 pointed out, I discovered today that if I go to Settings > USB Settings, I get the same error when I tap on the USB settings. That seems to be where the problem is really located.
Many, many people seem to be encountering this error. Looks to me like a matter of an update that was almost ready to roll out, but not quite. Will there be a fix? I'd sure like to think so, but we'll see.

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.

I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

I still cannot view flash players in firefox after uninstalling and reinstalling firefox and flash multiple times. how do i fix this issue perminantly?

I can go into chrome without any issues and watch any video without any problem. the second i get into firefox nothing works. i have had this issue on and off for years. i really do not see why you cannot fix this if everybody else can. i have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and flash player multiple times. nothing seems to work. I am truly getting really tired of this same problem year after year, i stay with firefox because you are privacy conscience and are being more so consistently. i do not know what other details to tell you other than this just keeps happening and it is making it very tough to do anything on firefox when i cannot use a simple thing such as flash player. as i said, if the other browsers can fix this i see no reason why firefox cannot year after year. i hope there is a simple fix for this problem because it has basically halted a lot of my work on the net as i will no longer use google or microsoft. thank you

Firefox does not play videos. That is the job of the plugins.

My netflix isn't working on my MacBook Pro. I tried 3 different browsers and it won't work on any of them. It said I have to update my Adobe player, which I did, but it still won't work.

My netflix won't play on my computer. At first it wouldn't work in Safari and it gave me a redirect failure (too many redirects). Then I tried it in Chrome and it won't work in there. It work for a few days in Firefox and now that doesn't work either. I have a MacBook Pro OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I just updated because I thought that would help. I tried clearing my history/cache but that didn't work. Do I have a Mac version of a virus? Help! What is wrong?
Also, I noticed when I log into my computer with my password when I first turn my computer on, The password box is slightly off center the first time, then I type my password, then it comes up again looking centered like it's supposed to. What is happening???

fromg googling it might have something to do with messed up fonts. I can get firefox to work as root though! 0_o.

Just an idea: Have you tried to use Firefox from Mozilla. I mean, download it and give it a try?
I have always done that, from my days in Slack, till this day and have to say that I NEVER have had a problem with Firefox, Java or plugins.
It may be a very biased opinion (since I have never had problems) but I think it may be worth to try.

I had somebody work on my OS 10.9.2 to speed it up. He failed and now Preview, Textedit, App Store, Mail and Contacts do not work anymore. I can still use Safari, Firefox and iPhoto etc. How do I get it fix I can still use Safari, Firefox and ed again?

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

Hi again CueBallMcDraw,
What operating system are you on? If your issue isn't related to your subscription being in a pending state (as I discussed in your other post), we'll look closer at what's going on with your system. But, I suspect you're going to be fine once your order finishes processing.
Please let us know how it goes.

Cut & Paste - Undo and Redo won't work

Cut & Paste - Undo and Redo won't work in DreamWeaver -
this happened suddenly today. Frustrating. Did I set something by
accident?
Reinstalled and chose "repair" - rebooted, reinstalled java,
an intuition. Nothing has worked so far.
Any ideas?

What a coincidence. I have kept Java off my main machine for
two
years, but installed it last week for an app that required
it. I've
used FW since version 3 and have never seen it be buggy, but
the past
couple of days I have had intermittent problems with copy and
paste.
Java goes tomorrow. I'm on XP Pro SP2, how about yo?

I reinstalled Firefox and it won't work anymore
