Wehen I attempt to sign on to Firefox I keep getting a message saying "the update didn't work-and wehn I attempt to do the update, it still does not work.-please provide a fix...

I recently downloaded Firefox 6 onto my Gateway laptop-Windows 7 Premium - and now each time I try to sign on I get an error message which states that the Update could not be downloaded and that I should go to a website and download it manually, which I have done. Each time I try it states that it cannot download the update due to an error and to go to the website and download it (loop).

Thank you for your reply. I have done both methods for setting Firefox as the default browser but it still doesn't seem to be working. Using the Firefox method: the check box is selected for always checking if Firefox is the default and each time it comes up I get the message that is not the default browser. Select that you want it the default browser and it says I have to restart the computer. Shown in the attached pics.
I have also gone to the Windows 7 control panel as described in another post and set Firefox as the default program but it still comes up as not my default program.

Firefox 3.6.3 does not save any history, does not save passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings (ok), started in Safe mode (still does not work).

Firefox 3.6.3 does not save history, nor passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings in Privacy (all ok), I restarted Firefox in Safe mode (it still does not remember history or passwords). Running on XP. I think these problems started when I upgraded to 3.6.3.

I had the same problem after an upgrade to 3.6.3.
I was using password manager for a number of web sites before. Not using cookies but password manager.
After 3.6.3 auto upgrade it did not work.
I could not enter private browsing mode.
When I looked in tools>options>security at my saved passwords the list was blank. The button in the saved passwords dialog that normally says "Show saved passwords" was actually blank (the button was there but there was no text on it).
I did have my old bookmarks and was able to create new ones but oddly the bookmark all tabs menu function wouldn't work.
I decided to reinstall firefox 3.6.3. There is no way something with that many bugs got out!
I was able to get the full firefox executable from http://mozilla.com
I closed all firefox windows and ran the installation.
After re-running the install and starting firefox everything was fine. It must have been a bad download or the original install got messed up somehow.
I hope you have the same good fortune I had!

I have yahoo on firefox, I keep getting a message saying I logged out in another page and asking me to reload. Is this for real or some kind of malware? I've had Yahoo for a great while and no problems before.

The "reload" problem happens when I first load Firefox with "MY YAHOO" as home page.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I could use \Firefox ok but all of a sudden i can no longer use it. I get a message saying there is a problem connecting and although i am connected to the internet and can use other browsers, i cannot use firefox. It is allowed through my firewall.

i think i may have caused this wheni inadvertently pressed upgrade when i had an internet explorer message appear.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Hello, all of a sudden I fell down my system and completely erased all bookmarks. Your progress with restoration does not work, write me of bookmarks could not be loaded. Please advice on everything because I came and they seriously need it.

Did your computer crash or did Firefox crash causing the loss of the bookmarks?
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

This has nothing to do with iPhoto. When I have this type of problem I call tech support for my email service. They probably are the only source of the correct settings

CS3 is unsupported under Windows 8. That said, you'll need to contact Adobe
directly for serial number issues.

I've been working on our church website and all of a sudden this week, my computer will not connect to the site. I keep getting a message saying that the the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?

The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.
