I've been using Mozilla for months and now when I click on icon nothing happens. How do I correct this?

I can't get Mozilla to open in order to connect to the internet. I've been using it for months and just yesterday it wouldn't open. I tried to uninstall it to reinstall it but that didn't work. First it kept telling me that Moozilla was still open so I shutdown the computer. I was able to download the latest version, however, it still will not open a web page once clicked upon.

Hi dmra1964,
You might want to take a look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox won't start]. Both of those articles provide a lot of good troubleshooting information.
Hopefully this helps!

  • I cannot download and then bring up Firefox. I had been using it for months but now when I clik on the Icon I get nothing !

    I have been using Firefox for months, but now when I click on the icon I cannot open a page. I tried downloading again but still get tnothing.
    I can get on Explore just fine but I want to get back to using Mozilla Firefox.

    Nothing is worse than IE.
    You can try the following:
    Save your bookmarks.html in
    %userprofile%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles\
    Delete the whole content of the profiles-directory
    Then create a new profile and start FF again. Now you can import your bookmarks.
    Otherwise look here:

  • I have been using pages for months and now I can not get it to open any templet or previous document to open?

    I have been using pages for months and now I can not get it to open any templet or previous document to open?

    A little more information would be helpful.
    What version of Pages are you using? The latest is 4.1 with the update released on July 20. In Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you need at least Pages 4.0.5. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
    If you are running at least Pages 4.0.5 & haven't made any other changes to your Mac since Pages was last working correctly, the likely culprit is corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences & delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plst & restart Pages.

    I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
    I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
    It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard.  I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences.  The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork.  I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
      I’ve been having to this every day now.  Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.

    I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

  • I bought an app which was free. To get the full version I then paid for it. I used it for months and now it's saying I have not got the full version and I no longer have access to the full app like I used to.

    I bought an app which was free. To get the full version I then paid for it. I used it for months and now it's saying I have not got the full version and I no longer have access to the full app like I used to.

    Try contacting the app support of the particular app your using.
    Most apps have an app support button on their app page within itunes.
    If they wont reply within a reasonable amount of time and you feel like the particular app developer has cheated you, bring the issue forward to apple care.
    Note that app developer have their own customer support.

  • Having Installed firefox 5 I am not able to launch Firefox when I click the icon, Nothing happens, I am using windows 7 home

    I have windows 7 home installed. I am using a Mac Book Pro. When i click the icon I can see the hour glass looking to launch but the nothing happens.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Updated ipad 2 and now when i tap my apps nothing happens

    updated ipad 2 and now when i tap on my apps nothing happens.   how do i get them to work again'

    Try this - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.
    or .....
    Download another app on the iPad - any free app will do. See if that gets the other apps working again.

  • I downloaded the latest version of Pages 5.0 and have been using it for days.  Now, when I try to open documents created with this version, I'm advised that I need latest version of Pages to open.  What's going on?

    First time user.  Need help.  I downloaded latest version of Pages 5.0 and have been using it.  Now, when I try to open documents created by it, I'm advised that I have to downoad Pages 5.0.  What's going on?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    You can add the icon of the missing Pages on your Dock or open Pages from the Apple menu > Recent Items list.
    Or you can archive Pages 5 so that it doesn't automatically open.
    If you are unhappy about this review/rate Pages 5 in the App Store.

  • I am getting an error that says "failed attempts to get anything from cdr server" on a website. It just started and now it won't launch the information. How do I correct this?

    This is occurring on the website Virgin Mobile. I was asked to perform some upgrades on my computer and now I am unable to get the content of my call history to display on a screen within this website. The 2nd window will display quickly and then shrink down before showing the call history content.
    The error message then pops up saying "failed two attempts to get anything from cdr server"

    Are you using the original gray-faced OS X DVDs that came with the system (if so, what OS X level does it say on the disk) or a retail copy of OS X 10.6 or another gray-faced OS X disk from another system? You can't use a gray-faced OS X disk from, for example, an iMac or MacBook Pro, to install on your MacBook. 
    Was it originally delivered with an OS X level that is greater than what you're trying to install? You can't install an earlier level than what came with the system.
    Did you boot to the DVD, and use Disk Utility to create one disk partition, then reboot and try to install? 

  • When I click on update the download runs in the background and nothing happens, how do I correct this so I get updates?

    I receive a message box asking if I would like to update Firefox. I click on yes and it goes to the download box with the long horizontal download bar with blue and white moving lines. That never changes...it simply stays with this box, the download bar never changes and it doesn't matter how long I wait for it to complete install it never occurs. The update box appears randomly in time, but it is quite often.

    Hello emckenzie
    If there is an issue with update or permissions '''the better, quickest and safest way''' is to download and install firefox:
    1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    2. '''Trash''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
    3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
    Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

  • How the **** do i get back my library i was just using.No didn't save image or restore been using it for months the same way no tells me to choose or create a library and my previous versions don't recover

    How the **** do i get back my library i was just using.No didn't save image or restore been using it for months the same way no tells me to choose or create a library and my previous versions don't recover.Please help I just deleted all doubles did allmy artwork Etc..

    Do you have a back up?
    If not you're into using file recovery software like  File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
    There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

  • Several sites will not respond any longer when I type or click on them. I have been using Firefox for years and all of a sudden, nothing.

    I have been using Firefox for many years now and have been going to several sites on Firefox. Now, after an update around two days ago, I can't do anything with the sites. The cursor stays an arrow, and doesn't click anything. It's like a blank page with print on it.
    I've tried almost everything, but to no avail. It's too much to copy and paste below.
    Any ideas or help would be very much appreciated.
    Also, http://tesnexus.com is another site, plus a few others, besides google.com.

    Hi Papajack55,
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

    A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

    The beeps could be caused by something as simple as a loose internal wire or connection.  If it is under warranty (not sure how long that is, as WD drives range from 1 to 5 years depending on the model's series - I think "my passport" drives are 3 years) you could contact WD and ask them about it.
    If it is out of warranty, you could also try opening the case and check the connections - the drive may be fine, and there have been posts on TomsHardware forums of people getting the beeps, opening up the case and the drive is fine, just some wire worked loose.

  • I haven't used my iPad 1 for months and now am trying to charge it, but it doesn't seem to be charging. Is the battery no longer good?

    I haven't used my iPad 1 for months and now am trying to charge it, but it doesn't seem to be charging. Is the battery no longer good because it hasn't been used for so long? 

    I just ran into this. You have to make sure you're using an iPad charger (the bricklet is larger) in a wall outlet. Leave it alone for several hours, then do the reset while it's still plugged in (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). It should make a comeback.
