Hello Donald.
Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
As for your issue, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

When I click on the Firefox icon, I get a message saying there is a problem loading page.
Can you try to update to Firefox 18?
*Help > About Firefox
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/update-firefox-latest-version
A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) 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 and the plugin-container 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.

I have tried to download and run Firefox on my MAC OS 10.6.7 several times and have run into this error message every time:
"A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time". A search through the computer does not fine another copy of Firefox and there is no window open or evidence of the program open.
When I got this computer a year ago I copied the hard drive from the old computer onto the new and the old computer had a copy of Firefox on it and the program worked on that computer. It would not run on the new computer so I thought maybe it was due to the Intel chip so I deleted the program and downloaded the newest version at the time. This is when I started getting the error message and subsequent attempts have yielded the same results.
Can you be of help?See:

I installed 4.0, it wouldn't open, not even in safe mode, not in any mode; it wouldn't open at all. So I installed it again,(no I didn't uninstall it first, first,I couldn't , ti wouldn't let me.) wi I tried opening the second one, the page would come up, but I got the message "problem with loading", work off line, try again. (tried many times)I was able to uninstall this one, or both, it was gone. So I searched for and found 3.6.17 and installed it, Goal, score, it works, my tool bar is just as it was, great... this is the rub, Mozilla/Firefox, no longer supports 3.6.17, so I have to change/upgrade. Can someone tell me how????? System runs windows XP, system is about 8 or 10 years old, some upgrades, but I think only to the memory, any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks so muchClear Cookies & Cache

I got a new MacBookPro a couple of weeks ago, and am unable to get Firefox to load GMail. I've tried lots of the suggestions on here, but none seem to work. I have to use Firefox in order to have access to class through Blackboard, but I can't get my e-mail. It is becoming frustrating.
You could of course use Safari your default browser as a quick method of accessing gmail until you figure out the Firefox problem. (More than one browser may be used on a Mac or other computer).
Is this the only site you have problems with ? and does Safari work ok ?
Often this problem requires the page to be reloaded
* try pressing the shift key as you reload the page
Another problem is sometimes the cookies for that site need clearing

The message states: The page isn't redirecting properly. Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. * This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Using Firefox version 3.6.12forget it....got it figured out.

this all happened after updating to the latest version of mozilla firefox. I have a Dell XP400 if that makes a difference.
That issue can be caused by the McAfee Site Advisor extension
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I had a pop up on opening firefox that I should upgrade to 3.16, so I did.
After extracting installing, when I click the firefox icon on the desktop, I get a download page to 3.16.
I uninstalled Firefox. Restarted the machine and downloaded the Beta4.
After it installed, when I click the firefox icon on the desktop, I get to the download page of 3.16.First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore). -
no link to open access to the internet. I used Yahoo Messenger, clicked on the 'mail icon' and since Firefox is my default it opened and I was able to continue from there. If I try to click File, open New Page, I get the "problem loading webpage" and "connection timed out" messages
changed my homepage to Yahoo. Now Firrefox works but still cannot access ANYTHING 'Google"!

When I click on an email link in Firefox, I get a message in the far left corner of my screen that says "mail to:email address". Outlook doesn't automatically open like it does in Internet Explorer. I've made Outlook my default email in Windows 7.

Every time Firefox opened
== When I upgraded to Windows 7.See this:

when I click on a link to open something in a new window, it opens a new window but it's blank!!! it's driving me nuts and I did update Firefox, but since I thought that was the problem I decided to install an older version of Firefox instead. please help!!!
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
There are other things that need attention.
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.
# Shockwave Flash 10.0 r32
# Java Plug-in 1.6.0_06 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

when I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message 'You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document'. When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers. can't purchase or update?
Trying re-purchasing. won't let me. says to check for updates?
any suggestionsIt sounds to me as though you are attempting to open a Pages 09 document with the Pages 08 application. If you do have Pages 09 on your computer, it may be that for some reason an existing Pages 08 application is invoked accidentally.
