Since the upgrade to firefox 3.6, why can I not even bring it up now?

Since upgrading to firefox 3.6 I have not been able to launch the program. I have uninstalled and re-loaded it yet nothing happens. The exe file is present and the shortcut shows up on my desktop but it refuses to launch, even logged in as the administrater.
Windows Explorer is what I am using to contact you. It is working just fine as well as my other internet programs.
I even went back and restored my computer to an earlier date then 11/5/2010 (the date the upgrade was launched) with no avail.
Can you help me with this situation.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

Since the upgrade to firefox, when in Thunderbird email, clicking on a link in thunderbird does NOT open a window in Firefox. Please fix!!

It used to be when I clicked on a link in Thunderbird, it would open a tab in Firefox. Since the upgrade (?) this no longer works.
Also when opening a new tab in Thunderbird, the new tab would show thumbnails of past sites which was very convenient. Now that doesn't work either.
Any suggestions???

Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Since the upgrade to 8.1.2, I can only use "messaging" in landscape mode and not portrait. Anyone else having this problem?

I unable to view or type messages vertical or portrait mode...it appears to be locked in horizontal or landscape mode. Any suggestions?

What user troubleshooting have you tried? User steps are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. There is no lock for the iPhone in Landscape mode, so I believe a reset should help. Also, double-tap the home button and bring up the multi-tasking bar, find the Messages app and then swipe upwards on the app thumbnail to force it closed.

I have a 3g ipod touch and bought a TV adaptor so as to view the iTunes festival on my TV - Why can I not get the video ? all I get is sound - any thoughts ?

I bought a TV adaptor and docking pod for my iPod touch 3g so as to watch the iTunes festival as my pc will not stream properly. I cannot however get the video all I get is the sound -Any Thoughts would be welcomed.
Cheers
Dave

Hi,
I have the Apple MB128ZA/B Adaptor and the Apple Universal Dock.
My settings read TV SIgnal - PAL
With other videos already on my iPod the video and sound works so I assumed that the iTunes festival stream was probably not compatible but if I am wrong I would be pleased to know.

Why can I not delete old album artwork now?

I was in the process of cleaning up my music library by adding and correcting all the album artwork, and now with this new update and changes to iTunes, I can no longer delete the old album artwork. Is there a reason for this that I am unaware of, or just something Apple missed?

I don't what else you're experiencing with your Mac, but getting album artwork is neither difficult nor secretive. Yes, you need an iTunes account to use the feature, but you don't have to buy anything to use it.
To get album artwork for your entire library, go to the Advanced menu and choose "Get Album Artwork". To get artwork for specific songs or albums, select them in your library, then right-click (with a 2button mouse) or CTRL+click (with a 1button mouse) to bring up the context menu, and choose "Get Album Artwork".
You can also set your preference under the General Tab to "Automatically download missing artwork..." (iTunes>Preferences>General)
BTW, this all works pretty much the same under Windows...
Note that iTunes will not always find the artwork for an album or song, and will occasionally assign incorrect artwork to an album or song. In that case, you'll need to find the artwork and assign it yourself. There are several third party utilities available to help with this, just google "itunes artwork utility" or something...

Why can I not see a table I own inside a procedure

I have a procedure owned by user X as follows:
create or replace procedure ztm_get_debug_level is
vc_pkg_name system_parameter.name%TYPE := 'DEBUG_LEVEL_PKG_BASE_KEYS';
vn_error     services.debug_log_level.debug_level_id%TYPE := 30;
v_debugLevel   system_parameter.number_value%TYPE;
function get_owner return varchar2 is
    cursor c1 is
    select owner from all_tables where table_name = 'SYSTEM_PARAMETER';
    v_Ret_Val VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
    OPEN C1;
    FETCH C1 INTO v_Ret_Val;
    CLOSE C1;
    RETURN v_Ret_Val;
END;
begin
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('AAAA - ' || get_owner);
select s.number_value
into   v_debugLevel
from   system_parameter s
where s.name = vc_pkg_name;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('BBBB');
exception
when no_data_found then
    NULL;
when others then
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('p_get_debug_level.WHEN OTHERS');
   raise;
end;
Table system_parameter is owned by user X.
When I execute I get:
TESTSSG.SUBSCRIPTION.87> exec ztm_get_debug_level
AAAA - X
p_get_debug_level.WHEN OTHERS
BEGIN ztm_get_debug_level; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
ORA-06512: at "SUBSCRIPTION.ZTM_GET_DEBUG_LEVEL", line 32
ORA-06512: at line 1
When I run the query outside the procedure as user X I get a row.
Any ideas?
FYI, there are no public sysnonyms.
DB version: 11.2.0.3.0
Thanks,
Thomas

Thanks Frank,
SYSTEM_PARAMETER is a table owned by X. If I qualify the select statement by adding the owner it works, but of course I do not want to do that. Here is the DDL for creating SYSTEM_PARAMETER:
create table SYSTEM_PARAMETER
name         VARCHAR2(256) not null,
date_value   DATE,
number_value NUMBER,
string_value VARCHAR2(512),
comments     VARCHAR2(512)
alter table SYSTEM_PARAMETER add constraint PK_SYSTEM_PARAMETER primary key (NAME);
Again, if I rewrite the procedure to the following (only difference is the red X.), it works:
create or replace procedure ztm_get_debug_level is
vc_pkg_name system_parameter.name%TYPE := 'DEBUG_LEVEL_PKG_BASE_KEYS';
vn_error     services.debug_log_level.debug_level_id%TYPE := 30;
v_debugLevel   system_parameter.number_value%TYPE;
function get_owner return varchar2 is
    cursor c1 is
    select owner from all_tables where table_name = 'SYSTEM_PARAMETER';
    v_Ret_Val VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
    OPEN C1;
    FETCH C1 INTO v_Ret_Val;
    CLOSE C1;
    RETURN v_Ret_Val;
END;
begin
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('AAAA - ' || get_owner);
select s.number_value
into   v_debugLevel
from   X.system_parameter s
where s.name = vc_pkg_name;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('BBBB');
exception
when no_data_found then
    NULL;
when others then
   DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('p_get_debug_level.WHEN OTHERS');
   raise;
end;
This procedure exists in 4 other environments where there are no issues. It can't be a privileges issue as the table is owned by user X and as you can see by the lookup (which was added for debug) against ALL_TABLES the owner is clearly X. So, why can X not select from it's own table unless we include the owner?
Thanks,
Thomas

The F5 Networks Host Plugin no longer works since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 and this is a major problem. what needs to be done to correct this?

When attempting to login to a GlasPac (auto glass) website, it requires an F5 Plugin to be installed. This has been working in the past using Firefox 3.x.x and now since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 it says the plugin in not compatibable with Firefox 4 and will not load it so I am dead in the water !!!!!!! The FF 4.0 upgrade has caused this serious situation ... what needs to be done to rectify it ???
Thanx in advance ... Denny

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

Try this as a first step; 
Clear the Cache '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"''''' 
and 
Remove Cookies '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"''''' 
If there is still a problem,
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
While you are in safe mode;
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.

Since the last 3 upgrades (thru Firefox 7.0) I can't print a web page. This is true using 2 different printers. I have an iMac 10.6.8.

Since the last 3 upgrades (thru Firefox 7.0) I can't print a web page. This is true using 2 different printers. I have an iMac 10.6.8.

Just read that the default memory storage on FF is set to 5 mbs. You can up that by clicking on tools, advanced and overriding the default and set it to 50 mbs (if you use lots of tabs) or 10 mbs (if you use just a few).
I open a blank tab and clear the cache periodically, while I am working. I can have several tabs open and watch videos on Youtube, by doing this. Have you cleared your cache?
Since I have an older computer, I've also used CCleaner for years. I use it often, but always before signing off. You can get it free...search for CCleaner, download from Pirifoam free. I didn't change any of the settings and it clears crap left behind from uninstalling programs, clears all browsers at once of: cookies, history, passwords, etc. I love it!
I had freezing, before using the "open blank tab, clear the cache" thing. Now I have no problems. Plus, as I said...you can change the default memory usage for FF and that should help too.
Hope this helps! Good luck! :)

Upgrading to firefox 5 and updating my plug-ins helped a bit. Frog is less 'sticky' now, but it's not solved the problem. Java needs to be up to speed or the frog goes into stasis....

That issue can be caused by the McAfee Site Advisor extension

Since the last update of firefox, the time has been 25 to 35 seconds to enter bookmarks or even the time it takes to page down when it used to take a few seconds. can you check why it taking so long since the update on firefox.

since the last update a few days ago of firefox, the time has been 25 to 35 seconds to enter bookmarks or even the time it takes to page down when it used to take a few seconds. can you tell me why it taking so long since the update on firefox. may another update is in order.

I have now done pretty much every suggestion that even vaguely applies in the various helpful link provided. Thanks for the ongoing help. =)
I have managed to get FireFox's start-up memory usage down to about 100,000K, however it appears that memory usage keeps creeping up the longer FireFox is open. (It seems to top out around 500,000K.) And I'm not talking open for many hours or days - but rather for minutes and possibly up to a couple hours. (Based on how long I've been fiddling with all this so far.)
On the plus side, it does not appear GreaseMonkey is the culprit since with it active or disabled this memory creep still occurs. Although having GreaseMonkey enabled definitely increases the rate of memory creep. Though once it has creeped up to 150,000+K, disabling GM does not make it drop back down to the starting 100,000K.
I should point out I run a MacBook Pro and use Bootcamp to partition the hard drive and run it as a Windows 7 PC about half the time. I am running it literally as a PC or, alternately, as a Mac depending on which hard drive I choose to load. (I'm not "windowing" it.) This problem exists regardless of whether I am using the PC or the Mac. These repairs have been made currently on the PC side, and I will attempt them all again on the Mac side. I find it odd that this enormous memory drain has occurred on 3 different computers at the same time. (The two "halves" of my home laptop as well as the PC at my work place.)

Since the upgrade to firefox 3.6, why can I not even bring it up now?
