"View Source" window immediately closes upon opening

WHen I select either Tools - Web Developer - Page Source" or right-click "View Page Source" the window opens and then immediately closes. I have Firebug loaded. This window action also occurs when I try to "Configure Editors" in FireBug.

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.org/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 the 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.

  • Since the upgrade to FF 5 on OSX 10.6.8 I have no 'Downloads' window and no 'View Source' window.

    Firefox appears to function normally except for the 'Downloads' window and 'View Source' window not being accessible. However, when selected they appear as being active in the 'Windows' menu but cannot be seen on screen.

    Hi,
    I have been through the entire sequence at -

    But still have the same issues. No windows for Downloads or View Source.

  • After updating, several apps close upon opening.Any ideas?

    I recently updated my ipod touch, now several apps close upon opening them. Any ideas?

    - Try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try downloading/installing a free app.  That has worked for some others.

  • How to view source of email message without opening the message?

    In addition to Verizon Email, I use Windows Live Mail.  With Windows Live Mail I can view the source of a message without opening the message.  This way I can find out if the message is legitimate or spam before potentially getting hit with malware from a bogus message by opening it.  I can then set up a blocking rule so a bogus message from either the sender or the domain never appears in my Inbox.  I have not found a way to do this in Verizon EMail. 
    Is there a way to view the source of a message without opening the message in Verizon EMail?  Right clicking just opens the message which I do not want to do.

    computerbug,
    You can get a preview of your email.  Log into the Verizon account and go to email > in the top you will see
    Conversations
    Contacts
    Calendars
    Settings
    Click on settings < General settings > Display and you will see 2 options for email view.
    (Preview is not available, if the resolution is less than 1024 by 768 pixels)

  • How to fix TextEdit window size & location upon open it?

    I'm wondering if I can fix TextEdit's window size and its location upon opening a file?
    I prefer opening my TextEdit at certain size (LxW) and would like it to stay align either on right or left of the screen edge.
    Can I do that? Please help.

    I don't know that you can do that. I've not found a way for newly created documents.
    Note if you disable System Preferences->General->Close windows when quitting an app, then upon restart of TextEdit, all windows will be exactly where you left them.

  • Photoshop is unable to Register/ Auto-Closes upon opening

    Alright,
    I've seen at least one other user with this problem, and it's nothing that can be resolved by signing in and out of the Adobe CC application, or even the Ctrl+Shift+Alt and opening trick.
    So recently I went with the $9.99 a month package for Adobe Creative Cloud containing Photoshop and Lightroom.
    No matter what I try, it won't ever prompt me to input a serial to register Photoshop, therefore any attempts at opening it set off it's anti-piracy measures and make it force-close immediately after opening/ after it finishes loading.
    When I am able to try and register/ finalize registration, it wants me to "complete registration by updating your account information," yet the page continuously loops and clicking "Update and Continue" brings me back to the same page. Which disallows me to register Photoshop.
    This is the reason why I, and possibly others, are unable to use Photoshop, for it auto-closes after fully loading, since it cannot be registered the same way Lightroom is.
    (Lightroom is registered immediately via a prompt message upon first startup asking for a serial code, one of which that is alread inserted/ auto-inserted by the Adobe Creative Cloud application.)
    Upon further investigation to prove my point, on my account the only product registered is Lightroom.
    Picture: http://screencast.com/t/0PTyKbUVLA
    I've tried the customer support chat.
    Multiple times.
    Possibly upwards of 16. Each time the representative went down the same list and copy/ pasted the same answers.
    It's sad that I was the one to narrow it down and have the problem figured out.
    Apparently I have to wait to contact their special support team on Monday to get this resolved.
    Although, it appears the package is "Photoshop Photography Program (For CS3+ customers)," which is not the version listed and advertised all over the site.
    (This package would indicate that I would not be able to use Photoshop since I have not owned Photoshop prior to purchasing this package.)
    Yet the only package that this applies to is this one:
    http://screencast.com/t/pDylveniasI
    This is insanely annoying.
    I would much rather do support via email, and I would also much rather have a more clear product description if the one I selected turned out to have been falsly advertised.
    Message was slightly edited by: MrNameloc

    I was on their Chat Support yesterday for 6 hours. Possibly a bit longer.
    Anyways, after waiting 4 hours for the Technician, the technician walked me through uninstalling Adobe CC and re-installing, but before he had me 'trash' the old preferences.
    Below is the file path (highlighted in blue, obviously), and the items that were changed.
    opm.db was deleted after changing the OOBE folder by adding the '.old' to it. (In the picture you can see the new versus the old...)
    Then afterwards they had me to make sure Adobe CC would not run, then had me to un-install it and re-install. Then had me to un-install Photoshop and re-install.
    (Well, they had me to un-install Photoshop CC, delete Adobe CC's preferences, un-install Adobe CC, re-install Adobe CC, then re-install Photoshop.)
    http://screencast.com/t/hjaPTVD2wl
    Did not work for me. You/ anyone else could try and save yourself 6+ hours in their support chat.
    They even assured me that, on their end, Photoshop had been registered on two machines already under my account; Meanwhile everytime I view my Adobe Products and Services, it still only lists Lightroom.
    Trying to convince them that it's registration is pretty hard. I've seen people with cracks of Photoshop CC, didn't work because Adobe CC keeps re-installing itself if it isn't allowed to be connected to the internet. (They were having the same problem as us; Opening Photoshop had it auto-close, and since Adobe CC cloned itself the anti-piracy measures kicked in causing Photoshop to do this.) However, since the cracks only install the trial version, it's still functional for 30 days. Therefore if you're able to find a trial version of Photoshop, or maybe even get a pirated copy, you'll be prompted to put in a Serial; Then possibly ask Adobe for your Serial, register and activate Photoshop, and maybe it'll work.
    Only reason why I suggest a cracked copy is because you are able to actually download the trial without signing into Adobe CC.
    Plus, it will actually give you a prompt to input a serial key. Unlike the Adobe CC installer.

  • How to view source of e-mail without opening so I don't get a virus

    I want to be able to look at my e-mail, see who it is from, and delete if from an unwanted source.  Can this be done?  Thanks

    Just to provide a third opinion, the others are 100% correct. Viewing a message in Mail will not infect you with anything. Of course, it should go without saying (but often needs to be said) that you shouldn't open any attachments. Keep in mind that someone you know could become infected with something that sends itself to you. (That happened years ago with the Leap malware that spread through iChat, but has not yet happened on a Mac with e-mail. It always could, though.) So, don't necessarily trust an attachment just because it came from someone you know.
    For more on this topic, see my Mac Malware Guide.

  • Lastest version (Windows desktop) crashes upon opening

    Brand new FF - just downloaded and installed today. Windows 7 Home Premium, x64 Dell computer.
    As soon as I open Firefox, I get "Firefox has stopped working" dialog box.
    I've uninstalled/reinstalled. I have zero extensions. Default plug-ins. Ran in Windows XP SP3 compatability mode, ran as administrator - nothing worked. I can run the browser in safe mode, but that doesn't help me if I want to use an extension ever. no malware or virus - all those scans came back clean.

    iTunes stops working and closes upon opening with Match on, works fine with match off

    I am having the very same problem with iTunes, I'm running Windows 7 64 bit and started having the problem after the latest update. I just upgraded to the new 5s and was syncing everything to it, so I figured that I would update my itunes software as well. Which I never do after updating one time and had trouble with it on my old laptop and had to rollback to a older version of itunes. I have tried every suggestion that has been posted in the Apple Discussion area and on other websites no luck what so ever. I figured I will wait till Apple comes out with another update and try again. In the post above I am having the exact problem with iTunes.  I'd love to know what thef-ing problem is because this is extremely annoying!

  • View Source stops working when running multiple instances in FF4

    I run two instances of FF each under its own profile. I have different add-on, etc, for each.
    Since upgrading to FF4, View Source is not working in the second instance. After pressing Command-U or otherwise choosing View Source, nothing happens. If I go to the "Window" menu, I see a window listed "Source of ..." but this window is not visible in any way and I can't find it or switch to it.

    Seems to work ok for me but I am using windows XP. I have firefox 3.6 & 4.0 both open, and both have now opened view source windows. Possibly some combination of extensions causes the problem.

  • Findow Window won't stay open

    When I try to open the Mac HD via Double Click or RtClick Open, and ditto if I click the Finder icon in the doc, the Finder window appears for a fraction of a second and then closes. I went to Disk Utility and Verified Disk & Verified Permissions - returns all is OK.
    I have an external drive attached and that window opens perfectly,as does my iDisk icon. However if I click on the Mac HD from within the window I open via the external drive, the window immediately closes.
    How can I get the window to stay open?

    The problem was that the HD was too full. As soon as I freed up some space, the window would stay open. I used the Activity Monitor to discover that my storage space was over 96% used. I deleted and transfered files to external hd and all works jes fine.
