The address wasn't understood. Firefox....

Why can't I download the Creative Cloud for desktop?

Hi there -
Are you attempting to get to the Creative Cloud download page? Some browsers were having trouble opening the link earlier this morning. Try using this direct link: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
What problems specifically are you encountering about the download process? Are you getting any error messages? If possbile, provide a screenshot of any error messages.
Cheers,
Kendall

We have a new computer and I cannot get my garmin running watch to sync with mozilla. The error message that I keep getting is"The address wasn't understood
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (connectagent) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address."
Help please

This is for a special URL that starts with
connectagent://
instead of with
http://
is that right?
Two thoughts:
(1) Could you try changing a setting for your Garmin plugin. Here's what I mean:
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Find your Garmin plugin change "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate".
Your system information seems to list two different versions of a similarly named plugin. I'm not sure whether that is causing a problem.
(2) Does Garmin's documentation specify any extra steps to set up Firefox, other than installing its add-ons?

You need to install the Creative Cloud app/ application manager first.

The address wasn't understood

Hi there. I'm attempting to download a free trial of the Creative Cloud and I'm receiving an error page that reads: "The address wasn't understood Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (aam) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context. You might need to install other software to open this address." What software do I need to install to make this work? Thanks!

im also experiencing the same probelm but i have tried in firefox and safari and also i checked my flashplayer to see if its upto date ??? any ideas :/

When i click a link i get The Address wasn't understood

I use outlook. When I click on a link i get a message that "the address wasn't understood". I need to open links.

Do you mean Outlook, the program that is part of Microsoft Office on your PC, or Outlook, the new Hotmail?
If you right-click > Copy Link Location and then paste it into the address bar, does it start with an unusual protocol? I mean, something other than http or https? If so, Firefox might not be set up to open links with that protocol. What is it?

Trying to install CC apps, getting 'address wasn't understood? error from Firefox.

What should I do?
Thanks!

Hi tshirnjeans,

Thanks

Why is there no address in the Address box after loading Firefox 5, just says Go To Website. It was fine this morning, then I updated to Firefox 5, now there is no address.

The url does not load into the address line when click on a link or open Firefox. It just says "Go to Website". If I open a second tab, then the url will display and when I close the 2nd tab the url to the current page will finally display. However, it is very annoying.

Look, many of us long time users of Firefox ''(12 years for me)'' feel pretty much the same as you do about Australis on the Desktop. I have tested and used the Australis UX Nightly builds from the days right after Firefox 4.0 was released; so Firefox 29 holds no surprises for me.
The best that anyone here in the Firefox Support forum can do is to offer advice on how to modify Firefox 29 or to mention which extensions you can install to to fix what you don't like about the changes. Beyond that, I suggest that you use the Feedback page to let Mozilla know how you feel. https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
"Bad design" ''(in your opinion)'' or not - use it as is, fix what you don't like, or switch to a different browser. Mozilla isn't going to dump Australis over user complaints, even if it would drag Firefox to its' grave.

When clicking on privious sites in the address bar drop down Firefox has started to just reload the current page, is there a fix?

Until recently I could click on resent sites in the address bar drop down, but now it just reloads the current page (still shows icons and addresses for the sites I'm clicking on). I've tired clearing history and cache, is this a known bug?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

How do I get FF to work with Mod Organizer (for mods used with ES: Skyrim)? I get an error message that it can't understand the address given.

I am an avid Elder Scrolls fan and am using the new STEP 2.2.9 setup. They've gone to Mod Organizer (MO) and I cannot seem to get my FF working with the download mod portion of things. I click the "earth" icon, which takes me immediately to the Nexus Mod files page but when I choose a file to download after clicking "Download with Manager" I get this error message:
The address wasn't understood
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (nxm) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address.
The address given, when clicking "Download with Manager" begins with nxm://Skyrim/mods/ The address is such due to trying to download with the manager.
Any help will be greatly appreciated! I've pulled my hair out for the last few hours trying to find a fix. I've disabled Adblock, all other popup blockers and enabled the main address in my exception rules. It's just not working. Ugh!
Thank you in advance!

In order to use ''nxm://'' links, Nexus Mod Manager must be installed and associated with the ''nxm'' protocol.

How can I move the tabs below the address bar in linux/FF 24?

I prefer the tabs to be under the address bar on my Firefox. Previously I could simply click or unclick an option to do this, and it remained the same as I upgraded. However, I recently moved to Linux Mint 16, and it had Firefox 24 already installed. I synched my bookmarks, but was unable to locate the option to move the tabs. I actually have the roomy bookmarks toolbar, and the tabs previously sat below it. Ideally, I would like to get them there again.

You can use the Classic Theme Restorer extension in Firefox 29 and later to restore some lost features including tabs on top.

Is it possible to change the address in the replacement program for the ipod nano 1G?

I 'm already sign up in the replacement program of the ipod nano 6G and the emply box has already been send. But later, I noticed that the address wasn't complet. So my question is if and how I could change my address.

There currently isn't any contact information or support from Apple in regards to this specific replacement scheme. I know it's quite frustrating, but Apple have not offered the best customer care in this situation. My only other piece of advice would be to go to an Apple store if possible. Speak to somebody and explain your situation..they may be kind enough to call through for you.
I am positive that there is not any means to contact Apple via an online form or by email.

I want FF 4 back and don't want to spend 30 minutes finding it! -- just send me the address, cut the cute crap, and just let me download a program that works before I switch to Chrome

this is bull---- this question has been asked a million times, my friends and I said that we'd give you until to day to get it together or we'd migrae backt o FF 4 - so I'm moving - what's the address to get to firefox four?

Can't get Firefox to open a new tab as my homepage or a specific url. Alwatys get 'The address isn't valid'

When opening a new tab, I keep getting 'The Address isn't valid'. Went through all the fixes given in previous threads, changing the url in about:config, running Firefox in safe mode (problem still exists with plugins disabled) resetting Firefox, changed newtab settings to about:home etc, restarted, deleted cookies. Nothing seems to work. Some other program seems to be overriding the Firefox settings. May be a virus. I am using the latest McAfee software.
I once had an add-on that brought up thumbnails with a new tab but I removed that a while back.
On the right hand side search bar of firefox I can see that Bing is one of the dropdown search engine choices not that it should make a difference but I thougth they were sometimes a bit aggresive.
Anyhow, would love to know if there is a solution as it's making me suspicious of having an undetected visus or hijacking.

Thanks for your relpy but I've already tried these solutions and no joy. I tried them again there just to be sure but still no good.
In the mean time I installed a plug-in that does this for me. I used My Homepage 1.2 and it's done the business.
Still don't know what was causing the problem. (And it wasn't a typo, I checked and copied and pasted urls from other locations...)

LOVE FIREFOX HAVE TWO SHIRTS AVID MEMBER SENSE 2000. Why do i have to get "google" in google search engine every time to type in the address?

LOVE FIREFOX. HAVE TWO SHIRTS, AND AN AVID MEMBER SENSE 2000. Why do i have to get "google" in google search engine every time to type in the address? It wasn't always this way. :-(

Can you clarify where you need to make this change?
Which searches aren't working for you?
*searching via the location bar (pref: keyword.URL)
*search bar on the Navigation Toolbar
*search bar on the about:home page (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename)
*other search bar (e.g. added by extension)
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

All the lettlers on my desktop and in the address bar appear as symbols. Also, I can't run firefox because it keeps giving me a crash report. I'm running Vista, if that helps.

This is my parent's computer. Here are the facts: After using facebook the previous evening, the next time the computer was used all of the desktop displayed symbols instead of letters/words. Upon trying to open Firefox a window labeled Firefox crash report opened. No matter what options you choose (send report, don't send, etc) when you click on an option, another Firefox crash report window opens. So I can't open Firefox. Simple solution would be to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it; however, it is very hard to navigate the computer with no words and all symbols. I am able to open up Internet Explorer, but anything in the address bar or search bar also appears as symbols. If I were to type in a specific site in the address bar, the site will load properly in words but the address bar still shows symbols. After much playing around, I was able to update Avast antivirus and run a full scan and nothing was found. I updated Malware Bytes and ran in for an hour but it never fully finished running before I had to leave. Please help.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
Try to toggle some Boolean gfx.font_rendering prefs on the about:config page to disable some features.
Filter: gfx
Some to try:
* set gfx.direct2d.disabled to true to disable Direct2D
* set gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading to false.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

The address wasn't understood. Firefox....
