* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mozilla_Crash_Reporter
If you have submitted crash reports then please post the IDs of one or more crash reports that have this format:
*bp-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
You can find the IDs of the submitted crash reports on the <i>about:crashes</i> page.
*You can open the <b>about:crashes</b> page via the location bar, like you open a website.

  • Firefox crashes when i open it, wont let me on it at all not even in safe mode and it doesnt give me my crash report?

    When i open firefox i get the message Firefox has stopped - A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    I've also tried to go in safe mode. It would crash and give me the same message.
    I've tried opening it by right clicking and clicking run as administrator. It opens then and i tried the solutions it says on the forum to do in safe mode and none of those work.
    I have deleted and reinstalled firefox multiple times.
    Nothing seems to work.
    Also it doesnt give me a crash report.
    I troubleshot it and it said "Issue found incompatible application detected " then it says "incompatible application - firefox is incompatible"

    The problem began because my computer had to be sent in because it wouldnt turn on so i had to get it fixed they replaced the motherboard this was the second time the motherboard was replaced and once they did that my firefox hasnt worked the same. I can go on google chrome but thats not what i prefer to use.
    & when i right click on firefox it says troubleshoot so im assuming its built in to my computer. im not sure.
    I tried the profile manager to create a new profile and that has seemed to work so far. No crashing but it does freeze when i got to facebook and then i have to click ctr alt delete to open task manager to end firefox. It happened twice, the third time i went to google, then twitter and it didnt freeze. I then went to youtube and it froze. So Facebook and youtube make it freeze. Any idea why it does that?
    & thank you so much for helping and responding to me.

  • I'm getting popup notices that Firefox has a problem, and Windows is looking for a solution; then it closes Firefox and says Windows will let me know if it finds a solution. No crash report window comes up.

    Firefox is my default browser on my new laptop, with OS Windows 7. I've now had several instances where a Windows popup comes up saying Firefox has developed a problem and may have to close. It also indicates Windows "is looking for a solution to the problem." No solution is found, however, and Firefox is forced to close, with the happy notice that Windows will let me know if it finds a solution to the problem. If there is any tech data on the crash, I'm not sure where to find it, and no Firefox crash report window comes up. I thought it was an anomaly the first time, but this has now occurred at least 4 times in the past several days.

  • Help my safari doesnt open and gives me a crash report

    help my safari doesn't open and gives me a crash report ever since i downloaded a file from the internet. I have a macbook air (early 2014) with running os x yosemite version 10.10.1

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
    If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.

  • Firefox 5.0 crashed, sent "send crash report" window; window stuck

    Firefox crashed, sent "send crash report" window. Now every time I click on the Firefox icon to start Firefox, the crash report window comes up instead of starting Firefox. Firefox won't open.

    Hello. I have a similar problem to the question of Ryan Vaught, (Firefox crashes upon open - won't send crash report; crash report info summarized below [MY] Firefox version: prior one to 3.6.7 Operating System: Windows XP Provessional). Mine is a bit different tho. Firefox seems to be crashing and my internet crashes right with it. When it does this, it also takes out some Win32 system .exe files. I too have ran AVG (Full Coverage /Purchased one) and then updated to Viper (Sunbelt Software) and it comes up clean of any viruses, etc. Once it crashes and I close Firefox, the crash report request comes up. When I hit send, it says it cannot be sent with no additional information as to why. I just updated Firefox to 3.6.7 and sure hope this helps, but it almost always happens when I am playing games that use flash. I can send a screenshot if you need it and feel free to edit my question if need be. I've checked my Viper settings and can get to all the websites so far trying to rule it out. Deleted my internet set up and then added it back as a new connection (hope that made sense), so I don't know who to be asking this question of, but hoping you may know the answer why I can't send the crash report. Whew! Sorry for the lengthy question/issue. Your help is greatly appreciated!! Carolyn Burnam

    I close firefox with the X like I close all of my applications but every time I close it I get a popup box saying that firefox has crashed do you want to send a crash report and I can type in what happened. Then I can choose to close firefox or restart it.

  • I cannot close firefox without closing the process via the windows task manager.

    The X in the top right corner, the 'Exit' command under 'File', nor right-click+close on the taskbar will close Firefox. I have to press ctrl+alt+del, and close the process manually.

    Try to delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Firefox does not send a crash report.

    Mac OS 10.6.3 Firefox 3.6.7
    Firefox does not send an error report after it crashes. It crashes consistently when accessing certain pages when Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53 10.1.53.64 is enabled, but never sends a crash report.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I noticed the problem in early July 2010 after upgrading Shockwave.

    More information:
    Firefox produces a crash file, but does not send it.
    There are 19 July 2010 reports in /Users/me/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ including 5 from today.
    A plist file was created or modified at the same time that the as the last crash report. It contains OS and Firefox versions.
    The directory /Users/tvd/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Crash Reports/pending is empty. The permission are 700. I am the owner.
    The last report submitted was Mar 4, 2010:
    tail -1 /Users/me/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/Crash\ Reports/submit.log

  • Firefox v 19.0 crash when opening facebook, no error/ crash report, Windows XP Pro

    Just today Firefox has began crashes every time I log into facebook. Unlike other users, it is not creating or sending crash reports when it does this. I can access the main screen and log in but when the first logged in page tries to load it crashes. No other sites seem to be affected. I have tried clearing cookies, and nothing seems to have updated in the last 24 hours (other than maybe firefox as I can't find an update date for it).
    Thanks for any help!

    Fixed! My Java and Flash were fine, it was actually the "Facebook Desktop" plug in which was messing it up. It was fully up to date and hadn't updated recently so I'm not sure why it randomly started causing an issue but disabling it seems to have fixed the problem without any negative side effects!
    Thanks for all the help!

  • I cant actually open firefox, nothing beyond the crash report window

    I've not been able to open the program,
    it keeps erroring out with crash report
    but nothing beyond that
    is there any way of being able to get back into it,
    and access bookmarks rather than just re-installing

    See [[Firefox crashes]] and get a crash Report ID, explained at the end of the article.

  • Get message firefox already running but not responding when trying to launch..tells me to close firefox wondow and try again (no ffox window is open)

    When trying to launch Firefox I get the following message.
    "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
    This is not the first time and I am tired of having to restart my computer. BTW I have Firefox as my default browser, but had to use IE to get to this support site!
    In answer to the next question...every time I TRY to open Firefox.

    Simple fix for you I think--it works for me.
    1. Open your TASK MANAGER (rt click on your taskbar)
    2. Go to PROCESSES
    3. Scroll down until you see "firefox.exe"(or anything with the word Firefox in it)
    4. Click(highlight) the "firefox.exe"
    5. At the bottom right side,click "End Process"
    6. Close the Task Manager and do whatever you were attempting to do.
    Cheers

  • I recently updated Firefox, and since then whenever I try to open Firefox I get a Mozilla Crash Report, and Firefox never opens. I have uninstalled/re-installed, and no luck.

    The long and short of it all is basically in my question, but if you have any specific questions I can answer for more help, please contact me at [email protected]

    Use a clean uninstall tool like Revo Uninstaller to remove the program. After the program is removed go into your programs folder and delete the Mozilla software folder. The last step is to open up regedit, find HKEY...SOFTWARE tab and delete the Mozilla string. After you've done all of those things reinstall Firefox and you should be good to go.
