Mozilla was crashing every few seconds and I couldn't install the update. I removed the old to install the new and now I can't install - getting error messages that close themselves.

When I try to install I receive this message:
"Firefox has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will clsoe the program and notify you if a solution is available."
This happens when I select RUN to install Firefox 9.0.1
I removed the old version because it was crashing everytime I tried to use it and it wouldn't let me update with the new.
I HATE IE, and need my Firefox back --- I am dead in the water for work without it.

Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
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.

    It was working fine and I had no problems, and then one day I tried opening a window and it froze. When I tried quiting the program my whole window went black. The x to the close the window doesn't work. The only option I have in my tool bar is Firefox and nothing happens when I try to quit firefox. Every time I try to shut down my computer Firefox prevents it. I haven't updated Firefox yet, so it's an older program, but only by a month or two. What's going on and how do I fix it?

    This is the first time it's ever happened. I downloaded the new operating system for Firefox but I can't install it until the Firefox currently running on my laptop quits, which it won't.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to change email address on my Apple ID since the email registered for the account has been hacked and I can't access it anymore. The email I want to change to is connected to another Apple ID I created about 4 years ago, though I successfully changed the email on that account as well. So the email I would like to use for my main Apple ID shouldn't be "locked" anymore.
    Though, when trying to change the email on my Apple ID I get an error message (in Swedish, so this is a direct translate from google): "This e-mail address is your email address for notification. It can not be used as the Apple ID or primary email. Choose a different address."
    I'm not really sure what this means or how I can fix this.
    It means exactly what it says... The email Address is in Use. You cannot re-use it.

  • Keep getting error message that iphoto has detected inconsistencies and needs to rebuild

    while adding photos to library keep getting error message that iphoto has detected inconsistencies and needs to rebuild the library..how do I fix?

    By rebuilding your library.
    Back up your iPhoto library before you do that.
    If iPhoto is open, quit it.
    Hold down the Option and Command keys while you open iPhoto (click the iPhoto icon in the Dock).
    The Photo Library First Aid window opens.
    Click "Rebuild database" and click the "rebuild" button.
    If this does not solve the problem, see "option 2" in Terence Devlin's post here:
    Re: i keep getting the message iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your library but after repairing it it just quits

  • ARD crashes every few seconds

    I have recently noticed that I have an 11GB crash log for ARDAgent on a Panther server. When try to access the server over ARD I get a message saying that it is reconnecting every few seconds. ARD states the version as 3.1 and gives information about the server but it's status is VNC On. Which is strange because VNC access is switched off!
    I'm now deleting the crash log daily and ARD access is pretty unusable. I have all ARD options enabled except VNC, and there are no firewalls switched on between client and server.
    Other Macs on the network continue to work with ARD just fine.
    Any ideas?
    Chris.

    Now reolved, following the guidance from Brian Nesse in the thread "ARD Agent continually crashing".

  • Unable to send emails, get error message that access to server is denied...problem began a few days ago

    For the past few days, since the Thunderbird update, I have been unable to send any emails from my thunderbird account. I have also tried going into my juno account online, and any emails that I send out come back with the mailer demon response - tha the email did not go through. With help from Juno I have tried to reconfigure my account, turn off my Anti-Virus and Firewall (Norton 360) changed my password many times, but nothing is working.
    This is the error message that I receive...An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: Access denied...4664b9656464c9c921b121b9b9c5354d11b420a93520358d357984a56d99d1cd24a07174e57559e0b1f00c7149f025b925ed4d45140c20f5.... Please check the message and try again.
    In the past, I have received this message and was told by Juno to change my password. When I did that, I was again able to send out emails. But this time nothing has worked. I even tried a system restore to go back before the Thunderbird update, but that did not help either. I really need to use my email, and just can't imagine what has happened to it. I am not sure if this is a problem for Thunderbird or for Juno my email server. Please advise. thanks.

    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try the following:
    *Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Windows 8], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-vista Windows Vista], [http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true" Windows XP], [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 OSX]
    ; If safe mode for the operating system fixes the issue, there's other software in your computer that's causing problems. Possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as program updates.
    Note that Norton's is notorious for not being "off" when their interface says they are. Safe mode with networking guarantees that.

  • When attempting to play songs on itunes, getting error message that file cannot be found and asked if i want to locate it.  not sure where it went. do have new computer and all files were transferred to new machine.

    I just tried to play some songs that i have in itunes and i get an error message that says file can't be located.  It appears to be on about half the songs of the thousands I have in there.  I do have a new computer and transferred the itunes library about a month ago.  I have successfully managed ipod on new computer.  I wonder if it is a licensing issue but this is just the second computer althought the third hard drive these songs have been on.  It is affecting songs loaded from CD's and purchased from itunes on the old computer alike.

    When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. You'll have to locate the file manually if it is still available. For more information refer to the following article:
