Java pulgin is enablesed and still not working with firefox but is working with my explorer browser

Java 1.7.0_10 from Oracle Corp is working with my Explorer but when I go to a sight with Firefox, it shows that its not installed. When I go into Firefox's plug-ins, it shows that its enabled....How do I fix this?

Your plugins list only shows the Java Deployment plugin and not the Java plugin. 
A possible cause is that the Java installer failed to create the necessary registry keys that Firefox uses to scan for plugins.
See this page about a possible JavaFX installation causing this.

Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now.

Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now. I have cleared the cache and cookies multiple times, updated flash player, did a virus and malware scan, allowed java script, allowed mozilla in the Windows firewall, contacted Zynga multiple times, and yet Farmville still will not load using Firefox, my main and preferred browser. I'm very frustrated and want this fixed.

Thanks for the advice cor-el, but if you would read the info I posted, I already did that, SEVERAL TIMES. That's not the solution unfortunately.

Java is not working with Firefox (but is working with Safari)

My computer is showing that Java is not enabled via Firefox. When I try to go into Tools/Add-ons, I see that there is no Java plug-in on that list (though I previously had no problem with Java). When I run software update on my Mac, it tells me my software is all up to date. Not sure what else to do. Java is working in Safari, so the problem is clearly with Firefox. I've tried disabling all my plug-ins, and clearing my cache. Nothing has helped.

Apple has removed support for the Java Plugin2 with the latest Java Update 10 for OS X 10.5 Java version, so the Java plugin is no longer available for Firefox versions and other browsers like Google Chrome that require the Java Plugin2.
There will be fix for this in Firefox 6 or in Firefox 5.0.1 if that version will be released, so that Firefox will find the plugin again.
I don't know if all Java applets will still be working on OS X 10.5 with this fix (Apple recommends updating to OS X 10.6).

URL Does Not Work in Firefox, but DOES Work in Other Browsers

The following URL does NOT work in Firefox. However, it DOES work in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome:
https://www.ascap.com/ace/
The main ASCAP URL works just fine. The problem seems to be confined to this link alone. Please fix; thank you!

There is a server redirect on this URL.

When I close the last tab I am sent to my desk top and do not stay on Firefox, but if I hit the open button again it says Firefox is running??

This started this last weekend. When I close the last tab instead of staying on Firefox it goes directly to my desktop. If I hit the Firefox icon again I get a message saying that Firefox is still running and that I should restart. But if I just hit open again it reopens or shows Firefox home page again. How do I stop this?

Set the pref browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window, you need to use "File > Close Window" or the close X on the title bar.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.
You may need to wait a bit longer before restarting Firefox.

Some logins don't work in Firefox but do work in other browsers

I have a couple of sites that the logins don't work when I use Firefox but work perfectly if I use another browser such as Chrome or IE. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox including reinstalling back levels but nothing works. Any suggestions?

In what way are those sites not working?
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Also check the cookies exceptions to make sure that you aren't blocking cookies.
If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Deleting+cookies
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

My chatt on parelliclub don´t work with firefox but it works on explorer why?

When I go into chatt at parelli the java load and then everything gets black so I can´t chatt anymore with firefox. I have allways could before. So I tried the explorer and there it worked.

Did you ask "parelliclub" if they are compatible with Firefox 3.6.8?

Links or buttons do not respond in Firefox but do respond in Internet Explorer

Sometimes and increasingly more often, links or buttons do not respond in Firefox, no new tab opens just nothing happens. But in Internet Explorer, the links or buttons respond normally and everything runs smoothly.
What is the cause then ?

No answer yet ????

Are you kidding us? My passwords don´t work anymore with Firefox, but they do with other browsers! What a shame!

I have 4 e-mail accounts and I always relied on Firefox because I just love it. All of a sudden, a few hours ago, all my accounts have become inaccessible on Firefox. When I tried to login I was received with a window entitled "Firefox - Choose User Profile" giving one of 2 choices "default - (13 digits)" and "default - (13 others digits)". None of them is known to me and no explanations were given as to what would happen if I choose the one or the other. My blind choice gave me a horrific experience: I have become totally unknown to Firefox and all my data is gone!
Well, it´s OK with me if Firefox wants to quit business, but why in such a rude way to us who trusted you?
It is fully possible to access all my accounts with any other browser, but all my data, my favorites, my routines are gone!
It needs a very convincing apology for me to go back to Firefox.
Even if this is an accidental failure, it will be hard to trust you again. I am loosing much time and must re-organize myself and my mail. You cannot imagine what this will cost me!
How can you do this?

First, calm down. No need to throw a rampage. Go to options > Security: Under passwords make sure remember passwords is checked. If it is go to saved passwords, find the websites in question delete them and then re-enter your login info. It seems that another Firefox profile has been created on your machine, I would suggesting clicking on one to see if it is your original profile if not, then choose the other. Please read this article. (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles)

Why can't I sign on to the gannett online forums with firefox but it works with IE?

When I try to logon to my local newspaper's websites (they are gannett papers) It just hangs at the logon popup and will not allow me access.

To be honest - Apple did a miserable job in designing the user accounts on Apple Store, iTunes app profile, Apple ID profile and Apple discussion groups profile. You can't even change the password in discussion groups. You have to go through "forgot password" to reset it. I tried it once and never received the reset-email. Total misery.
Anyway, I had the same issue with not being able to sign into Apple Store app. In the end I resolved it by CLIKING on the PURCHASES button in iTunes, then it asked me for password and then I was able to make purchases etc..

I use Earthlink mailbox, and I want my email links to open with Firefox, but they open with Internet Explorer; how to fix?

I am using Windows XP 2002 operating system; Earthlink mailbox program for email with AT&T Broadband.
I want to have Firefox as my default browser, but my email links open with Internet Explorer. I have followed the Firefox help page to set Firefox as my browser, but the problem remains.
Do you know how to fix this? Is it a problem with Earthlink?

I have Microsoft Outlook also with Firefox and can open just about every link, url, company page, etc via the email links. First, make sure you have noted the email as NOT JUNK so that the links are activated by Outlook. Second, Firefox needs to your default browser for the links to open in Firefox rather than IE. There are some links from Microsoft that may ignore the default and open in IE but not all anymore. I have a Sony laptop which ignores the default browser and opens all of its support information from its VAIO software loaded on the computer in IE. Besides that though, over 95% of my items will open in my default brwser selection, which is currently Firefox.
Go to this link to make sure Firefox is your default browser.
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+make+Firefox+the+default+browser?s=Make+Firefox+the+default+browser+&as=s
Or this link to make any browswer of your choice the default.
