When I start Firefox, I get this alert message "[JavaScript Application] XML tag name mismatch (expected META)". What is this message?
My firefox updated today automatically, and then when it started up, it displayed this alert message:
"[JavaScript Application] XML tag name mismatch (expected META)"
I can press OK and my browser then works just fine and I can go to websites and what-not. I have not run across any problems or anything. I am just wondering what this alert message means and if I should fix it?
I tried closing the browser and pulling it back up, and the same message was displayed. Also, if I open a new window the same message is displayed. But it is only displayed right when I open the browser, and does not show up anytime while using the browser.
If you click the Home button from another page, does the error repeat? If so, what is your home page?
When Firefox starts, it fires up a lot of add-ons. A standard diagnostic for add-on issues is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
Do you still get the message? If not, one of your add-ons might not be fully compatible with Firefox 14 or might need an update.

I have seen this before, a long time ago (several years), and I cannot
remember how/if we resolved it.
If this is an impotant issue to you, I suggest that you open a case with
BEA support.

This is a rather important issue, I have seen another post with a similar problem.
While not being a show-stopper it certainly raises concerns.
The application works ok until the application exits (in both development and
executable form)
Apparently this did not happen with Tux 7.1
It does with 8, I do not have 7.1 so I have no workaround.

This problem started suddenly, and I need to close the error message window so Firefox Browser can start.
I have the latest JavaScript version.Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

When I start Firefox I get an error message
When I go to start Firefox I double-click the icon and it says 'Windows cannot find X:/lib/deploy/jqs/ff/../../../../bin/jqsnotify.exe' with X being the letter of the hard drive.
Also as a quick side note: whenever I try to use a web page that uses java (ej: RuneScape) Firefox will automatically crash without warning.
I would be grateful to receive an answer to both of these questions.
Thanks,
Daniel
P.S. I noticed that I am asked to 'Enter the text from the Tools > Addons > Extensions panel' and when I click on 'Add-ons' Firefox will crash.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I cant rememberHi Daniel,
Sounds like you have a broken install of Java. Try uninstalling all versions of Java from Control Panel -> Add / Remove Programs, and then installing Java again.
Try disabling the Java Quick Starter in Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions / Plug-ins. (If still crashing, try doing it in [[Safe Mode]])
Do you see a Mozilla Crash Reporter dialog when you crash?
For us to see your crash report that you have submitted:
#Go to '''about:crashes''' in the Location Bar.
#Copy the blue links (beginning with bp-) and paste them here.
Finally, for further info, see [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]. -
When I start Firefox, I get an error message instead of my home page: Server not found Firefox ca
The error message is: Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at co108w.col108.mail.live.com.
If I then hit "Home" it goes to the home page. Changing the home page hasn't helped. Resetting Firefox hasn't helped. This just started today. Restarting the computer didn't help.
I'm using Firefox 18.0.2 and Windows 7.
Thanks.Check for malware

When I try to start Firefox, I get the error message "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?" I have rebooted several times to no avail. Get the same message when I try to uninstall Firefox
Just had this same problem. Based on other suggestions I found on the web, went to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox and deleted all files that ended with upgrade and/or delete. Then I was able to uninstall Firefox and then reinstalled. Hope this helps!

When I start iTunes I get the following message. "A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-42404)". I have installed the latest version of iTunes but still get this message. Can anyone help?
Hello mustangcim243,
iTunes has various components bundled with it that it requires for general usage. I advise that we completely remove iTunes and all of these related components, verify that they have been removed, then reinstall. To do so, please follow the steps in this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Note: it is important to remove the 7 components in order. Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
If the above does not resolve your issue, I recommend we reset the SC Info folder:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
(See Step 4: Remove the SC Info folder)
Thanks,

When I start firefox, I get a Dialogue bx saying that Firefox had stopped working and Windows is checking the cause, another dialouge box says that A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify if a solution is found,the problem continues, I have Google Chrome working on my Laptop.
It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

I messed up badly by trying to restore my brand new macbook pro by doing restart then command R and choose disc utility repair now when I start ,all I get is the white screen with a folder and a question mark,What can I do???help please
Can you still boot to the Recovery partition using Command and R whilst booting? Or did you wipe the Recovery partition as well?
If your Recovery partition is still intact, you can simply boot to it and reinstall the OS via the Internet. If you wiped the Recovery partition, you can hold down Command, option and R keys whilst booting and boot into true Internet Recovery mode. You'll be able to reformat the hard drive, erasing all partitions (format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a dingle GUID partition) and then reinstall the OS that shipped with your machine.
Note that you should use a physical Ethernet connection when restoring over the Internet - it's three times slower if you use wifi.
Try your Recovery partition first and if that doesn't work, use Internet Recovery.

When I open Firefox I get the following error: firefox.exe application error - The instruction at 0x02c38690 referenced memory at 0x02c38690 - The memory could not be written - Click on OK to terminate the program.
If you click on OK it closes Firefox - You can not reopen Firefox until you reboot the computer. Then it starts all over again.
The same happens if I click the "X" instead on the error window.Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

My toolbar is missing and there is a button at the top left that asks me to "Please re-install the Toolbar" but when I click on it nothing happens???
Then when I start Mozilla I get a long delay before it launches and a script running error "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595"
How do I solve these issues???No idea - and you provide no clues
what version of iPHoto do you have? Of the OS? is the iPhoto icon you are speaking of in the Dock?
re-read your post and try to provide information using standard Mac terms since we can not see you or your computer and only have your worrds to let us try to help you
Somehow my "IPhoto" icon now says "Preview". When I click on "Preview" nothing opens up except the bar says Preview. When I click on the Preview on the bar, a box opens up with different items, except when I click on any of them, there is nothing there. The only thing that work is the "quit preview". However, it is still there where my IPhoto icon should be. I can't get into my IPhoto. How do I get rid of this "Preview" and how did it end up taking over the IPhoto icon???
If you go to your Applications folder and double click on iPhoto what happen?

Above question covers it. I've tried reinstalling Firefox, clearing cache, history, etc. but still happens. I've created app tabs and when I restart Firefox, they are gone. Running Windows XP.
It is probably because you are not properly closing Firefox. Restarting your system would make sure that Firefox had terminated, but you do not have to do that.
To properly close Firefox on Windows systems, use
:File > Exit or "Firefox:" button > Exit
When you get the message "Firefox is already running" it is too late, and you must force termination of Firefox through the Windows Task Manager before restarting Firefox. Windows 7 has a keyboard shortcut to save you a step "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then on "Processes" tab, select "firefox.exe" and use the "End Process" button. More thorough would be to right-click on the "firefox.exec" and choose "End Process Tree".
You would find firefox.exe in a Mozilla folder in your program files, but y0u would not want to delete it there, you would need to use the Control Panel which you have already identified and do it from there -- but generally you would not need to do that, and there is nothing in what you have posted to indicate that you should. But if you did do that, then don't let the install start Firefox for you as you would want to use you existing desktop icon or method of starting Firefox, and should decline having Firefox install start Firefox for you. When the install starts then invoke Firefox in your normal manner. This should eliminate problems of creating a new profile rather than using your old profile. -
I have tried reinstalling numerous times but I keep getting the same message and I cannot use the burning feature. I have other burning software on my computer but it has always been there. This problem just started recently. Please help!
This same thing happened to me about two months. ago. I bought a new harddrive for my previously-fried netbook, and when I installed iTunes it gave me the missing registry business. So I came online and looked for solutions. This solution led to a different 'can't burn' error in iTunes, and I found a solution to that one, and it was like I was running in circles for a solid two weeks. Finally I managed to fix the problem, but after trying it hundreds of times I couldn't tell you which solution won out. Well, everything was fine and dandy, until I upgraded iTunes last night. Now its back to the same registry settings problem, and I want to maim something. Someone please help me ;___;

I get this message whenever I open firefox or a new tab. Anything I had tabbed to the top has gone, and the original homepage which shows all my recent visits is invalid. The full message is:
The address isn't valid
The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.
Web addresses are usually written like http://www.example.com/
Make sure that you're using forward slashes (i.e. /).
Try Again.
Help mee!!!Hi fredmcd-hotmail
It's not that I'm typing anything in wrong, it's when I first open Firefox or a new tab. Instead of displaying the firefox page showing my recently viewed websites it's just an invalid URL. Why would I be blocked from this page?
Thanks
