Upgraded to firefox 5 but it wont start up on my desktop

I up graded from firefox 3.6 to firefox 5 and now it will not work on my computer. I have tried to start it and nothing happens. I have tried everything on the troubleshooting web site to no avail. I have tried now loading 4 and it won't work either. I have had to switch to Google Chrome. I lost all my bookmarks. I am really disappointed, I have used Firefox for years...
I am running an HP with Windows vista 64 bit.'''bold text'''

1. verify on another Mac first. and another port.
2. very likely dead SATA card
read about it here:
Your dead external hard drive is likely fine! Great hope for your 'faulty' external HD

    You can likely download the last compatible version by:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I have a macbook pro and i put a new hard drive in it but now wont start up but when i firewire it to another mac the hard drive seems to be fine

    i have a macbook pro and i put a 500 gb hard drive but know pro wont start up but when i firewire it to another mac the harddrive seems to be fine

    When you formatted the drive, before installing OSX, did you click Options on the Partition and select Mac GUID Bootable ?
    Just because it mounts as an external does not mean it's a bootable Volume ...

  • I used to play zynga fronteirville on the last firefox but since i upgraded to firefox 4.01 it wont load

    frontierville starts to load then goes blank in firefox 4.01 and it worked good in the last firefox. as i can recall i had tried your firefox 4.0 beta and the same thing happened my computer is an oler 1 running windows xp but i have all the updates and cant see why its not working farmville from the same org. works on 4.01 .if i cant get 4.o1 to work can i still download the firefox before 4.01

    The pogo.com issue was a problem that was in earlier versions of Firefox and has since been fixed from versions 4.0 and above. Upgrade to the latest version of Firefox & it should fix your issue with pogo. The version you are currently on is the version that had known issues affecting pogo & as mentioned was fixed from release 4.0 to current.
    '''To manually check for newest version & update '''
    1. At the top of the Firefox window click the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu and select About Firefox. For Windows XP: Go to the Help menu and select About Firefox.
    2. The About Firefox window will open and Firefox will begin checking for updates. If updates are available, they will begin downloading automatically. If Firefox is already up to date, just close the About Firefox window.
    3. When the updates are downloaded and ready to be installed, click Apply Update. Firefox will be restarted and the updates will be installed.
    Note: Firefox does not automatically update plugins after newest version, You need to update plugins manually.
    '''[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/]'''
    If you need to downgrade to latest stable 3.6 version reference;

  • I have just upgraded to firefox 4, but it does not load up when i press icon

    originally, i upgraded directly frm firefox site and it launched. then after shutting down, it has not loaded up since. i have deleted the old firefox off my laptop and attempted to re-install, but no luck. it still does not load up.
    i have windows 7, and see the spinning wheel (like it is doing something), but nothing happens.

    Just for starters see if you can get Firefox going. Instead of double Left clicking, Right click on Firefox icon>Open.
    If that doesn't work, try opening via Firefox in the Start Menu or Programs List. If that works try creating a new desktop icon.
    Then you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode - Hold down the Shift Key as you double click on the Icon> don't check any of the boxes on the page that appears>Continue. You have now disabled all extensions and also Hardware Acceleration.
    Make sure your plug-ins such as Flash are up-to-date.
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    You should look up "Problematic Extensions"
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions ,
    and try disabling third party toolbars.
    If Firefox works in Safe Mode you have a culprit or conflict. If you are able to, you disable and re-enable extensions progressively until you find the problem. you will need to work your way through this -

  • I upgraded to firefox 4 but it is not suitable for my version of Mac Os and don't know how to get the previous version of firefox back!

    I downloaded the latest version of Firefox (ie 4) on my Apple laptop, but the fact that it is "unsuitable for (my version of) Mac Os " was not revealed to me until I had already replaced the previous version which was suitable. I don't know how to retrieve the version I was using.

    The latest versions of Firefox require at least Mac OS X 10.5 and an Intel processor. You can revert to Firefox 3.6.xx for Mac 10.4 by downloading the installer from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • Upgraded to Firefox 7 but FF logo is missing in Dock (Mac OS 10.6.8)- How do I get it back?

    When I upgraded to latest version of Firefox, the logo disappeared in dock and is replaced with some generic version (i.e. white page with Application "A"). The logo still shows up when I view FF in the Applications folder. I've tried dragging and dropping it back in the dock (from applications folder to the dock) but it didn't work. Still just generic logo. Firefox opens and seems to run fine... but I would like to see the logo back. Any suggestions?

    oops! Tried restarting (still no logo) and THEN replacing from application folder (dragging and dropping into dock)... Viola! Beautiful orange foxy goddess of web browsing returns! ;)
