  • Updated to firefox 4, and suddenly can't connect with any browser though I am connected. Error message reads "could not read chrome manifest file."

    i updated firefox and now I can't access the net on any browser. Wireless router everything is connected and up and running. Just not the browsers. uninstalled it, reinstalled it (didn't work), unistalled it again and internet explorer won't work either (not at anypoint after intial update was run. read several peoples simalr problems with the "could not read chrome manifest file" issue and solutions to no avail. uninstall and system restore did not work either. What did it change on my system, and how can I change it back?

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * 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.
    * It may not be necessary to create a new profile, so first try if it works with your current profile and if not then create a new profile.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox 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.

    SO I'VE HAD THIS PROBLEM POP UP TOO!! plays 1-3 seconds then quickly does shorter each time.. then snow...
    looked frick'n everywhere. only 2 things i found that worked.
    1. disable flash in chrome... this worked in the past, but did not fix it this time.
    2. this solution you wont even believe!!! plug in a set of headphones... BOOOM!!! it worked for me. i found it on some message board. youtube/flash looks for an audio output. when it doesnt find it the thing just dies...
    now the question is how to find a solution to stop forcing youtube to look for audio.
    i hope this works for you!!! i didn't believe it until i tried it. i was like no frick'n way!!!

  • Ever since the most recent firefox update, every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it?

    Every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it? When I restart firefox, then the download continues and all is well until I try to download something new (which I do quite often).

    You may well find this article of interest and help in sorting out your problems: [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] The article does contain a link for previous versions, but also points out other troubleshooting advice that may be more appropriate in some instances.
    Another useful article is [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
    I hope you sort out your problems either by downgrading or finding the cause of the problem.

  • Cannot download CoolIris. There am some other sites that I cannot download with Firefox but can with chrome.

    I am using version 3.6 .13
    I cannot download from CoolIris. In the past I've been able to mouse over the picture and CoolIris worked immediately. When I did this today it brought me to the CoolIris website and said I needed to download an update. I tried that four times and Firefox did not show the download taking place. This has happened recently with other sites I wanted to download from using Firefox. However, those same sites can be downloaded easily using chrome.

    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • I'm trying to download Mozilla Firefox, but everytime I try, the download is interrupted by a prompt stating the file is corrupted and it stops the download. Help!

    I'm currently using Internet Explorer and it is SO slow. I went to this site and tried to download Mozilla Firefox. It begins to download and then is interrupted by a window that pops up and says the file is corrupted and it shuts down the entire download. This has happened about five times. Please help!

    The Mozilla site. It's the correct site, I'm sure of it. I'm becoming EXTREMELY irritated with Internet Explorer and haven't even been able to really use the internet on my own laptop because of how many problems I have with IE. I've tried NUMEROUS times a day to download Mozilla Firefox and the SAME thing keeps happening. It'll get to about 3% loaded and say it's an Unknown Publisher and I tell it to run anyway and then immediately after that, it says "Extraction Failed: File Corrupt" and the download stops. PLEASE HELP. PLEASE.

  • Firefox stops download of pdf

    Firefox or ? stops the download of the pdf article ~ 1/2 way through the download. The articles change all the time and I used to be able to read them (~month ago).
    Adobe 9 is installed on my system and I don't recall anything that i've changed that would correlate with the time it stopped downloading.
    Can anyone help me with this, TIA
    update: I found an adobe 9 update that is now installed (said it was security type stuff) and attempted the download again. The first time it gave me a; cannot extract font PNNKNF + FranklinGothic Demi. I accepted and proceeded. It loaded only parts of the headers on each page. I then tried to download a second article (an abridged version of the same article) and it succeeded. I went back and tried the main article and it succeeded this time. I remember all this happening before.
    Am I doing something wrong?

    Looks like an issue with your connection. Could you please let me know the following:
    1. The OS and the version of Adobe Reader on your system.
    2. The browser being used.
    Just to be sure whether or not its an issue with Reader, can you try and do the following:
    1. Open the page: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/update-patch-acrobat-reader-10.html
    2. Right click on the hyperlink "10.0" under the "Vers." column in the "Windows update file information" table.
    3. Click on "Save Link As" or likewise and provide a location to save the PDF.
    Does this work?

  • FastFox, a program that can extend by me selected letters to words or whole sentences, and even draw up tables in Wikipedia, has stopped working in Firefox.

    FastFox, a program that can extend by me selected letters to words or whole sentences, and even draw up tables in Wikipedia, has stopped working in Firefox. FastFox has always worked very well with FastFox, but not anymore. FastFox still works excellent in Mozilla Thunderbird, Google Chrome and Safari, but not in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox 3.6.6. I need help with this because I am disabled after a meningitis caused by medical doctors in 2005. I rely on automatic writing programs, and unfortunately does not the alternative program AllChars work in Windows 7. I do not know of any other similar programs, which write "The United States of America" when I write the code that I have chosen - "USA+". I have not downloaded any new extentions to Firefox.

    Hello Stefan.
    Please contact FastFox's developers for support.

  • "Fast Web View" not supported in Acrobat X plug-in for FireFox/Chrome

    The Acrobat X plug-in for displaying PDFs in FireFox/Chrome does NOT support fast web view.   This means that PDFs don't display until after the entire file has been download.
    For example, try viewing this document in either IE(Windows) or Safari(Mac):
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/PDFReference.pdf
    Notice how it opens very quickly, and then you can scroll around and view all the content as the PDF content strreams in?  In Safari you can see the download progress like you used to be able to see in all versions of the acrobat plug-in.  Note also that in the IE version, although fast web view is working, you cannot see the download progress like you used to be able to... Thats an issue, but not nearly as bad as the real issue...
    Now try clicking the same link in either FireFox or Chrome (note that in Chrome you need to be sure that Chrome's PDF viewer is turned off and the acrobat plug-in is enabled).  Note that the PDF is not displayed until the entire file is downloaded.
    This feature is VITAL for viewing large documents online.  I'm astonished that this has not been reported by other users.
    Adobe -- PLEASE be sure that this gets fixed in the next update to Reader X!!  I was shocked to see that it was not fixed in 10.1.

    WHY would you want to disable this? Linearized "Fast Web View" enabled PDF are the right and proper type of document to be created.

  • I cannot seem to download the Firefox browser because the download screen doesn't produce any window for me to click on to run or save.

    When attempting to download the Firefox browser, I click on the big green button to download, then I am taken to the next page which says it should begin in a few seconds. Nothing happens. I click where it says to click if nothing happens and nothing happens. I tried this using both Google Chrome and IE. I have an internet connection, but cannot get it to work. HELP!!! And yes, I did turn off my pop-up blocker just to be sure.

  • Facebook images, profile photos, cover photos are not loading. Only small blue square with question mark. Same thing in Safari, FireFox, Chrome.

    Since July on MacBook Pro facebook images, profile photos, cover photos are not loading. Only small blue square with question mark. Same thing in Safari, FireFox, Chrome. Everything is up to date including last version of Adobe Flash. And watching YouTube also a problem. Video is skipping, freezing for few seconds and jumps forward. At the same time on Toshiba with Windows Vista under the same account, same wi-fi connection everything works fine.
    Please help with sugesstions to fix the issue.

    Seems like problem is solved but it might be temporarily. Anyway. Click on the image, it will open facebook photo browser. Image is not loading so right click on the blue box with question mark, save image as. It will start downloading but without any success since browser do not see the image. After this attempt refresh the page and close all tabs with facebook. Try to open facebook once again. For some reason after this weird actions all images displayed properly. Do not know for how long but now it works.

  • Javascript suddenly stopped functioning in Firefox?

    I'm working with a site that stopped working in Firefox randomly. This piece of code is populating into the html each time I try to update, and I'm trying to understand it. I haven't made any changes to the javascript used in the site but whatever this is has completely disabled all the site elements that use javascript. The kicker is that it only happens in Firefox. Chrome works perfectly. I've been poring over the html all day and this is the only thing that's wrong with it- I'm at my wit's end, any ideas?
    <script type="text/javascript" id="RTCEarlyScript"> window.oldSetTimeout=window.setTimeout;window.setTimeout=function(func,delay){return window.oldSetTimeout(function(){try{if(!document.documentElement.getAttribute('stopTimers ')){if(typeof func=='string') {var nfunc = new Function(func); nfunc();} else func();}}catch(ex){}},delay);};  window.oldSetInterval=window.setInterval;window.setInterval=function(func,delay){return window.oldSetInterval(function(){try{if(!document.documentElement.getAttribute('stopTimer s')){if(typeof func=='string') {var nfunc = new Function(func); nfunc();} else func();}}catch(ex){}},delay);}; </script>

    That was actually the first thing I checked and it's all enabled, but what you said sparked the idea that something else about the browser had to be interfering so I went down the line with the Firefox extensions on the computer I'm testing on, and sure enough, one of them was recently updated and has a bad string of code in it.
    -headdesk- Now if only I'd done this 8 hours ago.
    Thank you!

  • How do I stop the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading after upgrading to ver. 6.0?

    I upgraded from Firefox 3 point something or other (if I could remember exactly, I'd tell you) about 2 weeks ago to version 6.0. Thereafter, Firefox always starts up with two pages; one is a page declaring "Your Firefox is up to Date" and, on another tab, the default home page for Firefox. (the Google one)
    It has continued to do that ever since, and I cannot find a way to stop the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading at start-up.
    I'm running a pc with WinXP Professional w/Service pak 3.

    A suggestion for stopping the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading at startup.
    Use MozBackup for this; get it at http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/.
    A good user friendly tutorial on it's use can be found at http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/2418/backup-your-mozilla-based-software-with-mozbackup/.
    Download MozBackup and read through the howtogeek tutorial.
    Exit Firefox.
    Open MozBackup and start the procedure.
    Follow the procedure except for a part where you RESTORE the profile; in the Components selection window in MozBackup, UNCHECK the "General settings" box (you remember the General tab in the Tools/Options window in Firefox where your homepage info is kept?)
    Continue with the procedure to the end.
    When you re-open Firefox, you should be getting the Google homepage without the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page.
    Go to Tools/Options/Privacy tab. If it looks different than what it used to, ie: you used to have the option to not accept cookies, etc and now you don't, open the drop-down menu in the Hisory portion there and click on "Use custom settings for history", which will provide options for more control.
