Java is not installing into Firefox even after uninstall/reinstall

I need to take a test for a staffing company. They use Java to administer the test. My Firefox does not see Java even though it is installed in my computer. Neither does the test see Java. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, turned off my security, and even shut down my computer and restarted it. Any ideas how to get Java in? The testing company had the solution of try another computer.

Nope, still no go. Thanks!

Even after uninstalling, reinstalling Firefox, the Firefox profile folder is empty, and I get the message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." I have followed all the directions I can find, on my computer and Firefox Support. Still, the same message comes up, and "firefox" is not shown in my Windows Task Manager.
What can I do?

Delete the profiles.ini file and let Firefox create a new default profile.

Thank you, for that. To be sure, I tried your suggestion, and selected "System Proxy" as the choice, for Thunderbird and Firefox. Rebooted, and looked at the outcome.. NO Joy.. :-(
I believe that I shall send the output of the Error Log in my next post. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction after looking at the Error.log.
Thank you...Toad Hall. If you think of something else to try, I am ALL ears.. I shall keep trying..

Adobe Flash Player won't install into Firefox, even when using the offline installer, and downloading it through Firefox

Ever since the latest update of the Adobe Flash Player, I think it came out this week.
I can't seem to get it to work with Firefox, I have downloaded the installer, it installs successfully, then I check in Firefox to see if it works. It says that I need to install it?!?! I have tried the offline installer of the Adobe Flash Player, I also tried installing it through Firefox (when you click "Install missing plugins"). That just fails instantly.
I posted on the Adobe Forums, but no luck.
I am getting frustrated with this! I have never had problems with installing the Flash Player, and I didn't install this version any different from the previous versions. Flash Player was working well until the latest update of Flash Player was released.
If I go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash, it shows all the Flash Player files, but it's not showing up in the Firefox addon manager, and not working on YouTube, or any other Flash Player sections of sites.
I installed the 64-bit version, because I have a 64-bit Windows.
It works on IE, but not on Firefox.
It seems like it installs fine, but then it doesn't looks like it "installs" it into Firefox. Or whatever...
Also, I have tried uninstalling it with the Adobe 64-bit Uninstaller, restarting my PC after uninstalling, then install the 64-bit Flash Player for Firefox... doesn't work.
I have done EVERYTHING I can do to try and get it to work, no luck...
Please, any help with be appreciated!

Where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 11 for Windows or Macintosh?

I need help. My Firefox will not stop doing this even after i reinstalled. I will shut down firefox and when I open it back up it shows the previous website.

Please Help. This is starting to anger me. I Reinstalled and everything.

You should update your outdated Firefox 13.0.1 version to the current Firefox 17.0.1 release.
I'm not sure what you mean.
Do you mean that Firefox always opens the web pages that were open when you closed Firefox even if you set to open with the home page or a blank page?
Make sure that Firefox closes properly and that there isn't a hanging Firefox or plugin-container process left in the task manager.
*"Hang at exit": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs
*"Firefox hangs when you quit it": https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firefox+hangs
Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

I have lost my itunes library after updating it and keep getting a message saying MSVCR80.dll is not installed when I try to uninstall/reinstall it???

I have lost my itunes library after updating it. Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling it and it gets so far then tells me that it cannot be installed because MSVCR80.dll is not installed on my pc. I have no idea what this is and have googled it, followed links to sites that say they can fix it, only for them to scan, tell me I have 3 thousand issues and then want me to pay $30 dollars to fix it for me. This message also appears on firing up my pc too.
Can anyone help please?

I've been through the exact same thing and cannot seem to get an answer here. When you go to Manage Storage, does it have something at the top like "19.1 GB of 25 GB available"? I only have a Mail account with 5.3 GB in it and a Backups account with 553 MB in it. Obviously, these don't add up to 19.1 GB. There was no change in any of these numbers when I deleted all the same files you mention. With the free Mobile Me storage expiring next month, this is something I'm pretty concerned about.

Are there any dialog boxes popping up behind your Yahoo screen?
I have intermittent problems attaching files in Yahoo mail and this is usually the reason. I'm also using an iMac (10.7.3) and this is likely the problem.
It is generally a Yahoo issue rather than a Mac problem.

Why are some app icons hi-def in the App Store, then pixelated when downloaded? (Even after uninstall/reinstall)? Any way to fix this?

Just as an example, TSN. The icon always appears as hi-def/Retina display in the app store if you search for it or it asks you to update, then when it updates it goes back to being pixelated. I can see if it is an app-specific issue but there are other apps like Bank of America which do the same thing. I don't think it's because they haven't updated the icon because they have, it appears perfect when viewed in the App Store. Uninstall/reinstall did not fix this. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated! It may sound minor, but it makes all the difference visually!

How pixelated could the app look like? The only reason why the app icon could look pixelated, is if you are using the iPhone 4 or iPod Touch 4th generation. They obviously have an upscaled resolution, so the apps could not have been upscaled when downloading... I am not sure about this issue...
Like you said, it is a minor issue...

Could not bring up Firefox even after reinstalled the application. Still get "Could not initialize security componets" msg

I initial received the msg that Firefox is still running in the background and won't open. I check the Task Mgr and Firefox was not running. My storage is only 50% utilized. I finally reinstall Firefox and the new msg "Could not initialize the application security component......." come up. I tried rename the cert8 and the secmod files but still receiving the same "Could not.........." msg. Please help and thanks for your time.

Try to rename the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
If that didn't help then remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) as well.

Lightroom 3: file changes not propagating into Finder even after saving metadata?

Hello,
I have recently purchased Lightroom 3 and have spent the past couple days educating myself on the program. I have developed a file in Lightroom and I am now trying to open it in Photoshop Elements 10. I am running into two problems.
1. I have defined Elements as an additional external editor. When I try to launch the photo in Elements, Elements launches, but the file never actually opens in the program. My options are as follows: Edit a copy w/ Lightroom Adj., PSD format, sRGB, 8 bits, Res 240, stack with Orig.. When I click edit, the PSD is created and visible within the Lightroom library. I can drag and drop the PSD into Elements as a workaround.
2. When I look at the (.NEF/.jpg) file in Finder, none of my changes are apparent. I have saved the metadata both manually, and updated my preferences to automatically update the metadata into an xmp file. This is the bigger problem for me because I would like to edit my photo's in both programs.
Can anyone shed some light on why I am having these problems?
Thanks!
Angelique

Thanks Lee. Yes, I knew it was non-destructive, but I thought I saw on a tutorial that if you saved the metadata, it was embedded in the file as opposed to just in the Lightroom db, and that subsequently, other products (like Elements) would/should be able to recognize it. It makes sense that Finder wouldn't see it, but I do wonder as to why Elements didn't see it (when I finally dragged and dropped from finder).
Regardless, I exported to .dng and was able to open it Elements with the changed visible.
Thank you so much for your response. I am going to open a new thread as to why I am having the problem listed in point 1.
Thanks again!
Angelique

Java Applets not working using IE 6 after uninstalling software

I uninstalled some software on WinXP using Add/Remove, however the software still left remnants on my system. I tried to removing all the entries in the registry with RegEdit....I will confess I am a rookie with that tool, however now IE 6 will not launch Java Applets on the web sites I visit.
I also have Mozilla Firefox 8 installed and Java Applets work fine using that browser. Do I have to reinstall WinXP to correct IE 6, or is there an easier alternative?
Thanks for any suggestions

After removing malware Firefox is still broken even after uninstall/reinstall, yet other browsers have no problems with links opening multiple unwanted windows.

I removed malware from my new Windows 7 pro 64 bit PC. I have reinstalled Firefox multiple times to try and resolve the problem, even deleting the Mozilla folder from programs on the C drive. Whenever I click on a link on a webpage in Firefox, multiple unwanted tabs and windows open up making Firefox virtually unusable. Resetting Firefox doesn't help. I installed Chrome and do not get these popups. The malware must have caused some damage related to Firefox that will not allow Firefox to function normally even with a fresh install. I would prefer to use Firefox.
I don't recall the name of the malware.

The cause is most likely the preferences file in your profile folder. That file contains your personal settings, so it doesn't get deleted when you reinstall/update Firefox. The reset feature also retains your preferences file.
Instead of doing a mass delete of all your settings, you can try identify the culprits and reset them individually.
# In the [[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page.
# Click on the '''Status''' column, to sort your preferences by status, and group all the ''user set'' preferences together. They should appear in bold.
# If you see any preference that look suspicious, just '''right-click''' on it, and select '''Reset'''.
If you're still not sure which ones to reset, you can post most of them here easily. Go to '''Help > Troubleshooting Information''' then click '''Copy text to Clipboard'''. Open a reply to this post, and go to '''Edit > Paste''' to paste the info from your Troubleshooting Information page.

Firefox always says using old version even after running the upgrade programme. Even after uninstalling & reinstalling? Why?

Every time I open Firefox the message "using old version" appears I have tried uninstalling the program and then reinstalling but no change, When I use Firefox as my browser a message appears to say you are using an old version of Firefox. This is just fustrating what can I do to correct?
