\my new computer won't install Firefox. What can I do?

I just got a new computer with Windows 8.1. I downloaded the Firefox Setup file, and ran it multiple times, but nothing happens.

The regular download is a small "stub" file that has to connect back to the internet to get more installation files. This sometimes doesn't work or is blocked by local security software.
If your installer has the word "stub" in it, please try downloading the full installer from this page (scroll down to your preferred language):

  • Trying to transfer bookmarks from one hard drive to another. Did not have time to back up before swap-in, and cannot run old hard drive as master (new computer is a Dell). What can I do?

    Don't have anymore to add. Unsure of steps necessary. Computer does, however see and access old drive when set up as a slave, with the newer HD as the master.

    Firefox stores user data in the profile folder. You can copy the data files from the old profile to your current profile. For details on what to copy see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

  • Hp laserjet 1022 windows 7 (64 bit) won't install printer, what can i do?

    1. HP LaserJet 1022 Printer 
    2. Windows 7 64-bit
    3. No Error Message
    4. The only changes made to the system are security upgrades from Windows Updater. This is a new computer and the old one was running XP. 
    I have tried removing the printer, downloading newer software (lj1020-HB-pnp-WIN64-en) and trying to install it, adding the printer through windows and still the printer will not work. The cd version will run until it asks you to plug in the printer and then nothing happens. I even tried leaving it running overnight to see if it would find it and install, but nothing happened. This printer is a workhorse for me and I would like to keep it running, any suggestions on getting this printer recognized and running again?
    This question was solved.

  • New itunes won't install and I can't install older versions

    Hi all,
    I just downloaded the newest version of itunes this morning (I guess it's a newer itunes 11). The installation would not work, and I cannot seem to try it again. I've tried downloading the files from itunes, but it won't download. I've also tried going back to itunes 10, but I get the error: The file "itunes library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by newer version of itunes"
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    i'm using a Mac OS X version 10.5.7
    Then update to 10.5.8 and download Safari 4.0.4.

  • I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice.  Also, a second library was created and it became the default library.  I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open.  what can I do to revert to the old library?

    I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice.  Also, a second library was created and it became the default library.  I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open.  what can I do to revert to the old library?

    Both iPhotos open to a default library (#2) which has 300+ photos,  I attempted to "switch to library" under the file tab in iPhoto and tried to choose "other library" which had most of my photos.  When I attempt to open it, it doesn't do anything.  I can see it and there are 2 libraries but it won't open.
    Have you tried to open your old iPhoto library by double-clicking it directly, instead of using the File menu?  That should work, if you are running iPhoto '11 and the library has been created by that version or an older version.  DO you get an error message, if you select the library directly in the Finder?
    I checked and it is the latest version of iPhoto.
    Is it iPhoto '11, version 6.0.5? "Latest version" is ambiguous, because it will depend on your system version.
    Where is your iPhoto Library stored?

  • My new computer won't recognize my printer (HP4500 Officejet Wireless) in the wireless or wired mode

    MY new computer won't recognize my printer in either the connected or wireless mode.  When I hit "search for printers" it finds my neighbors wireless printer 100 yards away, and another net, but not mine sitting right beside it.

    Hi,
    Have you installed its software abd drivers on your computer yet ? Please use the CD which came with the printer. By the way, what is your Officejet 4500 ? It must be G510something.
    Regards.

  • My Mac won't mount my external HDD after installing Lion - What can I do?

    My Mac won't mount my external HDD after installing Lion - What can I do?
    HDD: Verbatim 3.5'' External HDD  eSATA & USB 2.0 #48802
    I can not find it in Disc Utilities - so I can not repair it.
    I also haven't found any Driver for the HDD to do an update.
    My Mac is running on the most recent updates of OS Lion.
    The HDD worked before. It contains my former Time-Mashine Backups. I would like to use this drive again. It isn't very old yet.
    It would be much appreciated if anyone could help.
    Cheers,

    OK, try restarting in Safe Mode and if that doesn't work try resetting the SMC and PRAM.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • New computer won't let me log in

    I bought a MacBook Pro from a friend. After I transferred all the files over from my old MacBook Pro the new computer won't let me log in. It says my password is incorrect. What should I do?

    I have the disks. She gave them to me when I bought the computer.
    Here's what I'm wondering...
    Since her computer was set to factory settings... and I immediately transferred my MacBook Pro over to her MacBook Pro without first doing all the updates on hers to get it up to the same level of Mac os 10.8 - would that be what's causing the problem or would all those updates have transferred over in the transfer?
    Right now there are 4 installs running on the computer (the one we bought). I figure I'll let them run and see if the applications are back afterwards. If they aren't then perhaps I need to reset to factory settings again, go in and do the updates and THEN transfer over my old computer.
    What do you think?

  • I found an old iPod classic of mine.  It's not synced to my new MacBook Pro.  How can I get the music and photos off of it and on to my new computer?  When I plug it in to my new computer it wants to erase what is on it and transfer from my new computer.

    I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone.  I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer.  Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer.  I don't want to do that.  I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes.  Any help?  Thanks!

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

  • Old computer died and I am trying to install Illustrator CS5 on new computer. Last version I had before CS5 was/is Illustrator 10, which has been installed in new computer. CS5 install says I need CS2,3, or 4 before installing 5, but old computer went dir

    Old computer died and I am trying to install Illustrator CS5 on new computer.
    Last version I had before CS5 was/is Illustrator 10,which has been installed on new computer.
    CS5 install says I need CS2,3 or 4 before installing 5, but old computer went directly from 10 to CS5.
    How can I repeat this 10 to CS5 install?

    It does not seem likely that CS6 was upgraded from version 10.  You might want to check your purchase history in your Adobe account to see if there is some missing link in the chain of purchases you made.
    You can always try contacting Adobe support thru chat to see if they can find information or otherwise assist you in this matter.

  • I have Adobe 5.0, original disk, 6.0 upgrade, original disk, and Adobe CS2. I'd like to install in my new computer with Win.8.1. Can you help?

    I have Adobe 5.0, original disk, 6.0 upgrade, original disk, and Adobe CS2. I'd like to install in my new computer with Win.8.1. Can you help?

    Forget about all the versions you already have (5.0 through to CS2). They will no longer work and the serial numbers are redundant.
    Download the non-activation version of CS2 form the link provided by kglad and use the new non-activation serial number provided at that link. Your existing serial number(s) will no longer work.
    Note: there is no guarantee that CS2 will run well on Win 8.1. Try it and see.

  • I want to use my iPhone 3GS just as an ipod, not a phone. No sym card. New iOS5 won't allow. What do I do? Can I do a hard reset?

    I want to use my iPhone 3GS just as an ipod, not a phone. No sym card. New iOS5 won't allow. What do I do? Can I do a hard reset?

    Hey, as far as I know you need a sim card to activate after a restore
    It however does not have to be a fully working sim card, just not blocked or with a pass code, I repair/refurb. some iPhones and can only advise to try and get a free sim card from a provider supported on your phone and activate it with this,  or maybe someone can lend you theirs for 5 mins?
    To clarify, I have heard there are ways around this, but they sound dubious.
