    Your Windows friend should ask in a Windows forum why his email client won't open attached jpg files. We have no idea what email client he is using or how his Windows security is configured.

    This type of error is typically caused by an incompatible/malfunctioning extension. Try the procedure in the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.
    The AVG safe search add-on is one that has caused this error.

    When did this start?  What was the last thing you changed before problem started?
    Have you tried sending the attachment from a different account.  Have a friend send you an attachment. Get a gmail account.
    Send the email with attachments to two different accounts one to your ipad and the other to a gmail account in a web browser and not on an iPad.  See if you can read the ones to the gmail account.
    You did reboot your ipad?

  • When I open Firefox, the browser does not open. Instead I get a small window that says: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined. How do I fix this?

    I tried to uninstall AVG antiviral software, but it did not uninstall. Next, when I try to open Firefox I get a box popup that says:
    TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined.
    If I click OK in that box, I can then open Firefox.
    Also I can no longer update Java.
    Help!

    Possibly you have "AVG Safe search" extension installed as part of "AVG Free", solution involves reinstalling :AVG Free" without the Link Scanner component see

  • Everytime I open a window in Firefox 4 beta 2 I get a messeage that says TypeError: Components.classes(cid) is undefined, when I click OK it opens up the new window. How can I fix this?

    Everytime I open a window in Firefox 4 beta 2 I get a messeage that says TypeError: Components.classes(cid) is undefined, when I click OK it opens up the new window.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")<br />

  • After I downloaded Firefox 4 and I try to open Firefox, I get this error message, "plug-in object: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined". I click "OK"; Firefox opens and works just fine. Any suggestions??

    Not much to add. Before Firefox will open, I get this error message, "plug-in object: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined". I click the "OK" button; Firefox opens and I have no further problems.
    I use an Apple with OS v. 10.6.7 and had no problems until I downloaded Firefox 4.0

    That indicates you have an add-on that is not compatible with Firefox 4. For details of how to troubleshoot that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • Get error "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" and can't load web pages. Problem with Firefox 5?

    I tried repeatedly to load Firefox 5. The Error "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" keeps coming up. The browser loads but any URL I enter doesn't load. Sites activated by buttons do load. Internet Explorer works.

    07-05-11 When I turned on my laptop (Vista) this morning, I got a Start in Safe Mode and Repair message so I did. It suggested a System Restore, I hit OK. When it started like normal, I waited a few minutes then TRIED to launch Firefox 5.0 but kept getting a Mozilla Crash Report dialogue. So I instead opened Firefox 4.0b12 --error free-- so I could get here to get help. When I tried the Run... firefox.exe -profilemanager step, I get the subject error. When I try to open FF 5.0 in Safe Mode by holding down the shift key simultaneously, I get the subject error and no launch (though no Crash box either). I will try to let the FF 5.0 Updater run when it appears again but it never lets me choose when to Ask Again so I don't think it'll show again until tomorrow. Sigh. Oh, and like someone at a different version of this error blog re WinVista 32bit, now I'm getting the issue of Enter not executing the URL typed in the address bar; I had to click the arrow.
    I hope the Update is to fix this problem.

  • I am getting an error message when I open Firefox 5 (Win.Vista) "TypeError:Components.classes[cid] is undefined." How can I get rid of this? Thank you.

    Only started since the upgrade. Windows Vista Home 32 bit.
    The error message reads:
    "TypeError:Components.classes[cid] is undefined."

    Try the suggested idea above. I just disabled all the add-ons which were not compatible with FF 5 and did a FF restart. That fixed the problem. I then enabled each one, one at a time, with a FF restart until the problem came back. I then disabled that add-on.

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    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).

  • Recently downloaded Firefox 4. Now when loading it, I get this Java Console Message: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined I click OK and everything works OK, but this didn't happen before.

    Please tell me how I can get rid of a Java Console Msg. every time I load Firefox 4 (which I just updated to). This box pops up when trying to load Firefox: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined. I have to click on OK before it will load. ANNOYING. This didn't happen until I updated to Firefox 4.

    That indicates that you have an add-on that is not compatible with Firefox 4. To find out which one, use the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • Since installing Firefox 4, I keep getting this message "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" when a window should open. Also print and print preview don't work properly anymore.

    Since installing the newest version of Firefox, This message "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" appears in a box when a new window should open. Also, what you see in print print preview is not what prints.

    This type of error is usually caused by an add-on you are using that is not compatible. It could be anything from an antivirus link scanner like AVG Safe Search add-on, or McAfee Site Advisor add-on, or something similar. To confirm what add-on is causing this use the procedure in this link:

    Try Disabling the last add-on that was installed prior to upgrading to version 5.0
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Firefox 4.0 displays an error code when launching: "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined", add-ons doesn't work and I can't open any web pages

    Hello
    I've been running Firefox 3.6.16 with no problems at all, and this morning decided to upgrade to Firefox 4.0, as the developer of the them I use, Foxscape, has upgraded it to work with 4.0. The installation appeared to be as normal, but when I launched 4.0, the following error message appeared: error "when launching firefox 4.0 TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined". The browser launched, but while I could go to webpages if they were in my bookmarks, so no problems with my internet connection, but when I typed in a URL (for example google.co.uk) and pressed "go", nothing happened. Similarly, when I tried to go to add-ons, it was as if I hadn't clicked anything. I wondered whether it was an issue with Foxscape (although I've never had any problems before when upgrading, as the standard theme just appears) so I reverted to 3.6.16, switched the theme to standard, then tried upgrading to 4.0 again. The same thing happened, so I'm positive it's got nothing to do with Foxscape.
    I run Windows Vista Home Edition on a Dell Inspiron. I also have IE 9 installed (I installed it a few weeks ago, and it's been running fine with 3.6.16). I've never had any problems with Firefox before; I'm very keen to upgrade to 4.0, and would appreciate your help in fixing this.
    Thanks
