I try to open firefox but it says firfox is all ready open. As a result, I have to restart computer.

This happened with 4.0 and previous version.

You could try Ctrl - Shift - Esc to open the Task Manager. Click the Processes TAB. Click the Image Name column header to sort the list. Locate firefox.exe. Right click it and click 'End Process'. Then try opening Firefox again.
No need to reboot.

Elements 13 will open ok once , I then have to restart computer to reopen it again.re without restarting.

Just installed elements 13 on a windows 7 64 bit machine that has all current updates installed.The program will open once and is usable, after closing the program and trying to reopen it it wont open. Starting task manager shows the program as still running , you cant end the program in task manager. If i restart the computer the program will open up again and function ok until i close it and it wont reopen without a restart of the computer.I have tried running it as administrator , no help.

Please try this: Copy the files formhistory.sqlite (or formhistory) and places.sqlite (or places) if they exist and delete the entire Mozilla folder in %APPDATA% and also the Firefox folder in Program Files. [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing%20up%20your%20information Please see this.]

Its possible that the server can be down now. Have you ever used it before? If you want, try resseting the phone by just holding the sleep/wake key and the home button together for 10 seconds. Then wait 5 seconds when it turns off and press the sleep/wake button to turn it back on. Then try it again. Let me know what the results are.

When I try to update Firefox it repeatedly says Firefox must be closed to proceed with install. I even get the same message when I try to uninstall the existing version of firefox. How do I close Firefox???

When I try to update Firefox it repeatedly says Firefox must be closed to proceed with install even tho Firefox is closed. I get the same message when I try to uninstall the existing version of Firefox. How do I close Firefox??? The same thing happens when I try to update other programs. When a program is off what else do I have to do to turn it off??

If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or have other problems with updating to update then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Hello there, SamanthaYikwai.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some basic steps to try for reinstalling an app:
iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
Reinstall the app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
Delete the app.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store and download the app again.
Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
If the download stops, you can resume it.
If the issue persists, then you may want to try and sync the application to your iOS device using your computer by following the information in this article, under the section "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC":
Download past purchases

Hi my MacBook is freezing whenever I try to open an application. I have tried resetting the system management controller, however no success. How can I wipe my hardrive and reinstall it again. PS: I no longer have the installation CDs, can I download it from Apple?

To get replacement installation disks, call Apple. Have the serial number of your MBP ready and a credit card. There is a fee.

I suggest that you take the MBP into an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation. There are liquid sensors inside and they should check if any have been activated. This may give you a clue as to what you may expect regarding future reliability.
