I updated from Firefox 4.0.1 to 5.0 and cannot access McAfee security

I updated yesterday from Firefox 4.0.1 to 5.0 and I have McAfee Total Protection and now when I access McAfee it is just a white blank screen and I can't access system restore it it also just a white blank screen. I removed Mozilla from programs and still same with system restore and McAfee. Can someone tell me in detail how to fix this?

I did this with the Windows de-installer and it did not work. Is there something more I need to do? Does Mozilla have a program for removing its software that is more complete?

  • I have Firefox 3.6.13 Since the most recent update from Firefox I lost all my book marks and have not been able to place any pages in the book marks. I also do not seem to keep any History. Help!

    I also notice when using a search from the tab on the far right say where Google is that I does not begin a search. When I use a secure email program the normal new window or tab that would open to type the message opens but remains blank. and will not load.
    The server we are connected to crashed soon after I down loaded the new update for Mozilla Firefox. It has been replaced with a new one but I still have the above problems. I prefer to use only Firefox and would apreciate being to utilize the program as I did before. I am not happy with the problem with the new update. Or at least that is how it seems to me.

  • Updater will not install updates from Firefox

    Windows XP, click on Help, About Firefox, Check for updates. They download. Then I click on Apply update. A window appears saying "updater.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." Then I may choose whether to send the error report.
    There has been no update. It will not install.
    Why does this happen? The only way I can get updates from Firefox is to go to Mozilla.com and download.
    I tried the troubleshooting tips in Firefox Help and nothing worked.

    I should have explained that this has been going on for a long time. When I first installed Firefox several years ago their updates installed fine.
    Then they no longer would install, starting in July 2007 when they downloaded Firefox 2.0.0.4. After they installed that, Firefox would not even open, and I got an error message. I had to uninstall and reinstall.
    I figured out over time that I would have to go to their website and download the updates myself, each time they announced that an update needed to be installed. It would then install fine. And Firefox would open as it should. This has been the case for a long time.
    So it does work out doing it this way. It is something of a nuisance, and it would be nice if the updates worked smoothly and automatically, as they used to.
    I thought this might be some problem others users have had and would know how to fix it.
    Thank you.

  • Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

    Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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 updated from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 and ever since Firefox has run somewhat strangely. In particular when on sites with a lot of images like Facebook,etc

    Hello, I am writing as I am experiencing some issues with my favorite web browser after updating to Windows 8.1. Here are some details. I updated from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 and ever since Firefox has run somewhat strangely. In particular when on sites with a lot of images like Facebook. It is like there is some kind of Flikr effect between the desktop and the images and between the images and the browser (almost like old 16 bit video games flikering). It is not too bad but it is an issue. I have tried resetting firefox and restarting the computer. I haven't tried a repair, and I haven't done an uninstall yet.

    thank you for helping, the issue seems to have been caused by the hardware accelerator

  • Jquery content not working after the updates from firefox

    Hi, i've realized that some of my website's banner is not working after the recent updates from firefox, whereas those website's banner is working in google chrome.
    Hope there is a solution for this as i'm using the firefox for years and wish this issues can be settle.

    SlideDeck has a post on how to resolve this error, caused by a bug in this very old version of their library that you're using. See: [http://www.slidedeck.com/blog/firefox-20-update-and-slidedeck-js-weve-got-you-covered/ Firefox 20 update and SlideDeck.js – we’ve got you covered] for more information. As a Pro customer, you were supposed to get an email notice, but... here you are.
    I studied the script before discovering that and found two issues, but there might be more:
    (1) slidedeck.jquery.js detects Firefox 20 as Firefox 2 and halts. Note that this regex is the problem:
    firefox2:F.match(/firefox\/2/)?true:false
    (2) Starting in Firefox 16, the -moz-transform property was unprefixed, that is, you need to use transform for Firefox 16 and later.

  • After automated update from Firefox 4 beta to RC I lost my profile

    After this morning automated update from Firefox 4 beta to the RC the browser created a new profile without importing the existing one .
    So, please help me to recover my data.

    ''it looks like the new version creates the default profile in C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ I've copied the files from the older location (C:\Users\My _user\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\) and the problem is solved.''
    ''if this is the intended behaviour, it sucks!''
    This is not normal behavior. The default Firefox profile folder should still be located here, on Windows Vista: <br>
    C:\Users\< user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>.
    <br>ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows
    Restart the computer and make sure you are logged into Windows as the correct user, by entering '''%USERPROFILE%''' into the Windows Start Menu "Start Search" box. Once you are sure you are logged in as the correct user, try starting Firefox again and see if you are using the old Firefox profile folder (go to Firefox -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Open Containing Folder")
    You can also create a new Firefox profile with a unique name - see [[Managing profiles]] - then find the new profile folder and use the instructions here to copy over your data:

  • Why am I unable to update from firefox 4.0.1 on mac osX 10.6.8 when my Mac meets the requirements?

    I have a Mac OSX (10.6.8) with an 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 16GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory and 2TB hard drive.
    Yet I am unable to upgrade from FireFox version 4.0.1
    I can no longer access my YouTube account, and other websites, because I am told the FireFox version I am running is not compatible.
    Why am I unable to upgrade to the latest version of FireFox?
    Do you just not want Mac owners to run your browser? It seems this is the case as this has been an ongoing issue that should have been resolved already.

    Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' and require at least OS X 10.5 and '''an Intel Mac'''.

  • After updating to firefox 5 all my bookmarks are lost, and I can not find an old places.sqlite file. What happened to my bookmarks?

    I updated from Firefox 3 to Firefox 5 (Windows XP), and all my bookmarks are lost. Maybe I should have thought of making a backup but I did not think of this and previously after an update I could find them again. Now I can not find my bookmarks anywhere, all files in my profile have a date and time from the new installation. Is there any chance of finding my bookmarks somewhere else on my computer? If so, where are they and how can I restore them?

    Thanks for the answer. I read the article but it seems that the solution to my problem is not in there. Apart from the lost bookmarks Firefox is working fine, also I can make new bookmarks and delete them without problems. When I restart Firefox I don't loose them.
    Apparently after installing Firefox 5 everything of Firefox 3 was deleted including my profile. The only bookmark .json file I have is from the new installation, which means it does not contain any of my old bookmarks. It now has today's date and time.
    In my profile I have three 'places' files, now all with today's date and time:
    - places.sqlite (10240 kb)
    - places.sqlite-shm (32 kb)
    - places.sqlite-wal (865 kb)
    But even though places.sqlite is large, it apparently does not contain my old information. Or could it? Then how to get to it?

    Hi there
    I think in this case, you may be best to speak with Microsoft about this, as it does seem like an issue with Office, and not your Mac.
    Follow this link, to find your local Microsoft Support contact number.
    Or perhaps create a new topic in the Microsoft Support Communities
    Good luck

    there is no update from 5.5. to 6.0.
    you could have upgraded from 5.5 to 6.0, but you would know that because you paid money.
    assuming you paid no money for a 6.0 upgrade, you still have your 5.5 license.  uninstall clean and reinstall 5.5 per http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
