Trouble loading firefox. message says "entry point not found".

My Firefox will not load. red X with message pops up, says " Entry Point Not Found. procedure entry point could not be located in the dynamic link library."
my boyfriend clicked on some update and tried to go online (using firefox) while the update was running.

Do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* 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.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the 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.

  • Installed Itunes 10.5.  I try to open Itunes is says Entry point not found.

    I just installed Itunes 10.5 and restarted the computer.  Now when I try to open Itunes is says Entry point not found.  The procedure entry point AVCFAssetCreateWithByteStreamAndOptions could not be located in the dynamic link library AVFoundation.dll.  I have tried to reinstall and repair Itunes 3 times and I still get the same prompt when I try to open up Itunes.  Can anyone help me fix this please?
    Thank you in advance.

    I hope this is of some help to you as I found it when trying to solve my own problems with 10.5

  • I cannot open firefox, error states entry point not found

    I can not open firefox, I downloaded an update and ever since, when I try to open I get the error message "no entry point found" What should I do?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == today ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

    Often that's caused by damage to one of the other software components.
    I'd try the following document first:

  • Can't open Icloud. "The entry point not found".  Can't reinstall until I open Icloud and log out but I can't access it.

    I am trying to re-install Icloud, however I can't redownload until I uninstall Icloud, but I can't uninstall until I log out in the Icloud Control Panel.  The problem is that I can't open Icloud to log out because it says Entry point not found.  I'm having an issue with all aspects of this!

    I see you still have your smc0. I'm working on my first attempt at OSB and Oracle support said we have to remove rmt0, rmt1, smc0 before we can install OSB. They saw it in the device list and said those devices must already be taken.
    Is you setup working for OSB and regular mksysb & sysback too with the Atape.driver?

  • Error message when clicking on links from thunderbird: Firefox.exe – Entry Point Not found

    When I click on any link in a Thunderbird email message I get the error message:
    Firefox.exe – Entry Point Not found
    The procedure entry point ?DllBlocklist_Initialize@@YAXXZ could not be located in the dynamic link library T:\PQligP sFuvy (X86)\pJPpSox HneiCFv\GwCMqTQ.Oqt.
    I tried uninstalling Firefox 27 completely and reinstalling it, and the error is still there. When I uninstall V27 and install the older V26 the error disappears. Id there an issue with V27 trying to work with links from Thunderbird?
    I am on a laptop running Windows 8.1 with all current downloads.

    Thanks for the reply - as best as I can tell it seems to be some kind of incompatibility between Thunderbird V24.3.0 and Firefox V27. If I install Firefox V26 then everything works as it should. I haven't tried installing a previous version of Thunderbird to see if that makes a difference.

    I have a PC computer and an i-phone 4S.  I set up an i-tunes acct online w/ icloud.  After a recent update my PC started receiving an error message on start up.  It says "AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found".  It also says, " The procedure entry point smlTextreaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll".  I click on OK and it moves on.  It doesn't seem to affect my computer, but it's annoying.  Any ideas on correcting this?

    UPDATE - (Made a second post so it'd be clearer)
    I uninstalled Office 2003, then iTunes, then all of the associated software (Mobile Device Support, Apple Update, Quicktime, EVERYTHING)
    Reinstalled Office 2003, then Office 2003's Service Pack 3, then all Microsoft Updates for Office 2003. Then I configured a blank Outlook profile, no data other than the IMAP info for my .Mac/Me account. Then I downloaded (didn't used my existing copy) of iTunes 7.7 and reinstalled. Sync'd phone. Changed MobileMe settings. Told it to sync contacts and calendar with Outlook. It warned me because it was the first sync. Told it to take ALL of the MobileMe data and replace the data on the computer (which was blank.) NOTHING showed up in Outlook. When I tell it to sync Contacts with the Windows Address Book, it works fine.
    In Conclusion, it still won't sync with Outlook, when it's set to Sync with Outlook I still get the annoying MAPI errors. So I switched to to Sync the Contacts with the Windows Address Book, and I'm backing up my WAB file now with my nightly backups.
    I suppose we'll see if it gets fixed when I format/reinstall on Vista Ultimate in the next month or two. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open and willing to try them.
    On a completely unproductive note: Despite my love for Exchange, I hate MAPI.

  • When I turn on my computer,an error message says  "AppleSyncNotifier.exe-entry point not found The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll". Can't access itunes store,sync,buy etc. Help...

The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll"  Cannot access itunes store, sync phone, etc. Two weeks ago did this and Apple support had me remove and reinstall iTunes.

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the libmxl2.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Reboot and see if all is well
    In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "libxml2.dll"
    3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Paste file "libxml2.dll" to the location.
    5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.

    Hello ckkeith65
    If you are having issues with AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe then you would need to uninstall iTunes and its associated software in the order listed in the article below and then reinstall iTunes, as it is part of the installer file.

  • Xcelsius exe won't launch - Entry Point Not Found message given

    -Operating System: Windows XP

    -Office Version: 2007

    -Xcelsius Build number (Help>About Xcelsius): <not accessible>
    -Business Objects Enterprise version/patch level (if applicable): Crystal Reports 12.1.0.892 - SP1
    -Issue Description: Xcelsius exe won't launch - Entry Point Not Found message given
    -Steps to Duplicate: When I try to open Xcelsius.exe, I receive a message box that says "Xcelsius.exe - Entry Point Not Found" "The procedure entry point ?LevelDiffToFirst@CTreeBtnCtrl@@QAEHPAU_TREEITEM@@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library TreeBtnExtDll.dll."
    I have uninstalled and re-installed Xcelsius with the same results.
    Also, when I open Crystal Reports 2008, the "Crystal Reports 2008 SP1 - Software Manager" opens and shows an update available - SP2. When I try to install the update, it downloads and then displays a message the this update is only available for Crystal Reports 2008 SP1. I believe that is my current version.
    After some research, I believe my CR Runtime app may be a different version than what Xcelsius.exe is expecting, but I don't know how to check or fix that. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi
    I think I've managed to fix this error. I compared the TreeBtnExtDll.dll in my Xcelsius directory on the machine that wasn't working and one that was and found that the broken machine was using an older and smaller version of TreeBtnExtDll.dll. 89k and a date in 2008 I think. So I copied my newer version which was 109 k and dated 11/2009 into the C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Xcelsius directory of the broken machines and now xcelsius appears to be working fine.
    I had lots of trouble installing the SP3 release because of the media issues so maybe the install wasn't complete.
    Anyway, I hope this helps you
