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???

I switched on my PC and there was an update for realplayer. Since then firefox will not load. It is running according to Task Manager. I've downloaded a another copy of the programme using IE but whilst it loaded as a programme, does not open a window.

Hi again,
Helps if I give the correct link ! The press shift button appears to still work, but the option to start in safe mode from the programs listing of a standard install I do not think exists anymore.
Safe mode will start from a command line, (or a shortcut) and in some circumstances you may need to enter the full path name on a command or shortcut detailed instructions are at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
Remember (at least at this stage) do not make changes when you get the options list, just click on the continue button.
If you think that RealPlayer is causing the problem you could uninstall that for now.
Firefox recent versions are 3.6 4.0 (and 5.0 in beta). There is some debate as to whether creating new profiles or re-installing Firefox is the simplest method of troubleshooting and solving some of these problems, personally I use multiple profiles and multiple versions of Firefox, and tend to forget the required procedures are less than straightforward. For now at least try [[safe mode]] again.

Mac user OS 10.6.8 Firefox 6.0.2. Click the Firefox icon in dock, program does not open new window. Type cmd+N to open new window, cmd+T to open new tab or cmd+L to enter URL, nothing happens. What causes this, and what can be done?

It's strange. The problem apparently resolved itself after I ran TechTool on it. When I clicked on Firefox last night, I had no problem opening a window. Thanks for your help. (As to your previous post, the focus was on Firefox and neither the speed keys nor the menu bar would open a window or tab of allow me to enter a URL to open a window. Strange!)

How can i setup pages to automatically open when double clicked. Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open. The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

Hi Karen,
Sounds like OS X has lost the association between Pages and its files.
Start by quitting Pages, then going to Finder.
In Finder, locate a .pages file. Click on it (once), then press command-I (eye, not one) to Get Info.
In the Info window that opens, expand the Open With section.
In this section, click on the pop-up menu and choose Pages (even if Pages is already shown).
Click the Change All button to associate all files with the .pages extension with Pages.
Close the info window.
Double click any .pages file to check that Pages will now launch and open the file.
Regards,
Barry

FireFox Hello does not open conversation window after partner joined

When I initiate a conversation and my partner joins, I can hear a sound and get a notification, but the conversation window does not change. That means it does not open the larger chat window.
If I then press the Hello button and select the conversation, pressing the link does nothing.
If I then copy&paste the conversation link in a new FireFox tab, I get the chat window, BUT it asks me to "join the conversation". If I do so, it simply says there are already 2 people in the conversation.
It seems to work fine, when somebody else initiates the conversation.
I've disabled all add-ons, except no-script, which I set to accept all scripts. I have no other FireFox versions installed.

Thanks for getting back at all!
It doesn't work with 36.0.4, too.
When I use the Browser Console and press the HELLO button for the first time, I get the following two errors:
''Content Security Policy: The page's settings blocked the loading of a resource at self ("default-src jar:// about: file: chrome:"). about:loopconversation
uncaught exception: document is not associated to any tab <unknown>''
When I initiate a conversation and try to respond on the other computer, I also get a very long error:
"[Dispatcher] Dispatching action caused an exception: " Exception { message: "", result: 2153644038, name: "", filename: "chrome://browser/content/loop/libs/sdk.js", lineNumber: 2931, columnNumber: 0, inner: null, data: null, stack: "OTHelpers.request@chrome://browser/content/loop/libs/sdk.js:2931:4

It looks a bit like "sdk.js" is causing problems.

My firefox does not open new window and pop-up

i can't open new window with firefox. my versian is up-date
please help

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

My computer thinks firefox is running and will not open browser window,error = firefox is already running, you need to terminate the process or restart computer. restart has no effect. what file would make the computer think firefox is running?

Reinstalling does not help. Computer locked up for unkown reason and this has happened ever since when i try to start firefox.
Is there a file I can delete or kill that will terminate this process?

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+is+already+running+but+is+not+responding
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:

I can not open multipule windows of firefox, I cannot open a website from an email.

I use to be able to have several windows open and since the most recent update, I cannot. after I have one window open, if I close it I have to restart my computer in order to open the browser again.

Hi there,
Wow, that sounds very odd indeed! What happens if you press Ctrl+N on your keyboard? Normally you should see a new Firefox window. If nothing happens when you do that, something is definitely wrong with your Firefox.
My advice would be to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if the problem exists there as well. This article has all the details: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If all else fails, here's a method that will almost surely fix the issue: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]
Let me know if any of this helps or if you need more assistance.
Thanks!

How can I email a web page. The older version would enable you to email an entire page contents, but Mavericks does not

When I try to email a Safari web page with Mavericks, some times it does not allow me to send the actual page and its contents. Instead it offers
you to email as a web page, link or PDF file. However, when you send the page, the images do not show up in the email.

Hi,
You can try to right-click on the page and '''Send Link'''.
You can also install [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/?src=search Addon Compatibility Reporter] and try to '''Enable''' the said extension in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Addons'''. Hopefully this will restore at least partial functionality. You may also be able to find alternatives via the search box on the top right of the Addons page, or [https://addons.mozilla.org/ AMO].

After Yosemite Firefox does not open a window

After Installation of Yosemite I can't use Firefox anymore. It doesn't open any window, also on the menu bar only the "Firefox" menu appears. Already tried to remove and re-install, no change. Any ideas?

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? 
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode] 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
If not, see this:

Safari 6.0.4 does not open any pages (but Firefox works)

A couple of days later after the update to 6.0.4, Safari is unable to load any pages.
I have disabled all extensions and run OnyX over it, but without any success.
All options in Proxies in the network preferences are deselected.
Firefox and other applications can use the LAN-Internet-Connection without any issues.
Does it have something to do with another problem, because I can not open the Java Control Panel (it always crashes)
I have a Mac Pro 3.1 running with 10.8.3
Can somebody please help?
Many thanks
Regards
Nils

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
