sorry if i posted to wrong board.. :-x
Firefox has been moved from testing to current now. You'll have to update your db with a -Sy.
So pacman -Sy mozilla-firefox will work.

I have Mozilla Firefox installed, w/. my Home Page setup to be opened on It every time. I can open a new window on It too, but when I open a new tab, every time open this new tab w/. Untitled Page. I wanna It opening w/. my Home Page.
Firefox is coded to open new tabs in a blank page. That may change in Firefox 4. I don't know.
In the meantime, there is an add-on called Tab Mix Plus that I think provides that option. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122/ -

Why won't Mozilla Firefox install a plug-in?
Hey there.
I have been trying to install a certain plug-in for Firefox, so I can watch a video which is featured on a website. It's called the '''DivX Web Player''' plug-in.
Each time I click on the play button, the video screen changes to grey with text that says: ''A plug-in is needed to display this content. Install plugin...''
I have clicked on the installation link and have run through the installation steps several times now. Each time I restart Firefox and return to the website, the same message is displayed. I have also made sure that my Firefox is up-to-date; version 9.0.1. I'm running Firefox on Windows 7.
If anyone has any solutions that I can try, that would be appreciated. Also, I have searched through the help topics, but have found nothing of use.Also,
After restarting Firefox, please check if the plugin download and installation was successful, by going to '''Tools''' ('''Alt '''+ '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Plugins''' (on the left). -

This is what follows the first statement;
"Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections".
*Check the proxy settings to make sure they are correct. (Done)
*Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working.
I have called COMCAST, my internet service provider and they said there is nothing they can do for me.
I would appreciate an answer to this problemThe default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't always work properly on Windows XP and in such a case it is better to select "No proxy".
You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection<br />
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy"
See "Firefox connection settings":

How do I block unwanted 'sponsored' emails? Was ok until new Mozilla Firefox installed yesterday!
Ad blocker is already ticked. But since Mozilla updated yesterday I keep on getting 'sponsored' emails that I don't want. I cannot mark these as spam because that option is not available. I can only open them (which I don't want to do). However if I refresh the page they vanish for a while and then suddenly reappear!!
Please help.I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and<BR>
add-ons were changed / reset. Try this;
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
<BR>While you are in safe mode;<BR>
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''.<BR>
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.<BR>
Then check ALL of your settings. Browser and add-ons. Then restart.<BR><BR><BR>
Any other problem with your e-mail you may have to take up with your e-mail

wants the page displayed. -

Is updater.exe a Mozilla Firefox file? Symantec keeps blocking it.
Symantec Endpoint is asking me whether I want to remove this file from my PC or allow the file. what should I do?
Hello,
Mozilla does have an updater, but "updater.exe" is a very generic name, for instance:
* http://www.shouldiremoveit.com/Better-Experience-102105-program.aspx
If the updater is located in the Mozilla Firefox install directory, then it is most likely safe.
* Default install directory for 64 bit computers: ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\''
* Default install directory for 32 bit computers: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\'' -
Can I have two mozilla´s installed on my computer??
I share the computer with a cousin, and, I would like to know if it is possible to have two mozilla firefox installed on my computer and with two languages different, portuguese and english ?? Is that possible?? If yes, HOW??
To install the second language version, download the installer from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
To install it you need to use the [[custom installation of Firefox on Windows]], and choose a different destination folder.
You should also create different user profiles for the two versions (profiles store user data and settings). To do that see the following http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
You also need to create shortcuts for each version that load the correct profile, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile
If you want the Brazilian Portuguese version there is another way to do this. There are language packs that can be added to Firefox, but for Portuguese only the Brazilian Portuguese language pack available.
You can install the Brazilian Portuguese language pack onto the English version of Firefox, it is available from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/
Now install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1333/ Quick Locale Switcher] add-on to enable you to switch between the two language versions. -
Hi, I have been having problems with Internet Explorer 8 using Windows 7 so wanted to install Firefox but unable to as get a message saying error creating directory c:\programme files (x86)\mozilla firefox\searchplugins
Thank you guig2! Followed your bleepingcomputer.com link above and found the problem was my permissions on C:\Users\Bill\AppData\Local/Temp. It was not "Full Control" for my User or Administrator. Updated the two lines to permit full control for folder, subfolder and files. Ran perfect.

I downloaded and extracted the latest ESR file (Version 10.0.7) this morning. Running SETUP.EXE with no command line switches fails to install Firefox. Ths installation log indicates that the installation has taken 1 second to complete execution. In the Installation log I see the following:
DLL Registration
** ERROR Registering: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\AccessibleMarshal.dll **
In the C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox folder there is an uninstall folder as well as an install.log file. No other files or folders exist. Mozilla Firefox does appear in the Programs and Features but shows an icon associated with an unknown application.
I am logged in with a low-rights account but running the SETUP.EXE executable from an elevated command prompt. This should be sufficient to elevate the DLL registration.
Running on Windows 7 SP1 with all applicable updates. I've noticed several other people that have experienced this issue but nobody has a solution.
Thanks in advance for any help!Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
*C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 10.0.x ESR: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

The happens when I attemp to install Mozilla Firefox 4.0 on a classified network. Initially when I try to install Firefox 4.0, a screen comes up saying that I need administrative privileges to install. Then when I cancel my logon username/password administrative screen, the installation process lets me continue and I can install the Firefox 4.0 software. I would like to know if Firefox 4.0 might encounter problems later on a classified network if Im able to install the software initially.
hello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly

I recently installed firefox so I could use an adblocker. It installed just fine, and it worked just fine for about three days. Then yesterday it stopped opening. I'm on a Toshiba running Windows 7. The icon highlights when I click on it, but then it stops and won't open the browser at all. When I try to run it with the manual command "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p, I get the error message, "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location." I installed it to that location, and I don't need a disk. I'm connected to the Internet just fine and my other browsers (Chrome and IE) work the same as always. But they're swamped with ads and I really was happy wih Firefox when it was opening...how can I fix this issue?
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you! -
We downloaded firefox 5.0.1 last night, began working with it. It did fine. After about an hour, I turned off my computer. When I turned on my computer, I click on Mozilla Firefox and it won't start. I get this error message, " Error: Platform version '5.0' is not compatible with minVersion >=5.0.1 maxVersion <=5.0.1" from XUL Runner. What do I need to do to fix it?
The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />
Do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
