Why can't I open Firefox from desk top or Program file?

I can only open Firefox when I right click and open as administrator, not from the desktop shortcut or program file. I had added two users to my laptop, including one guest, after which this problem occurred. I removed the two users, but I still can't open Firefox from shortcut or program file.

Any problems you are having with Dropbox should be through their tech support.  Contact them.

  • I have pinned Firefox 5.0 to my Windows 7 taskbar. Why can I not open Firefox from a "pinned" link?

    I have Firefox 5.0 installed on Windows 7 Ultimate, and the Firefox 5.o icon pinned to the taskbar. With IE9, I can right click the icon, and any site that is in my "pinned" menu can open the browser. This doesn't work with Firefox 5.0. Why?

    I would suggest using the Quick Launch instead with Firefox being one of the first so it shows on the task bar. No preloaded or anything just ready to use.

    I think IE is a browser interface to Windows, Firefox is self-contained and runs on any system.

  • Why can't I open Firefox?

    When I open Firefox the screen advises each time that I need to either restore session or start new one. In either case, my G-mail comes up but the system freezes -- "Mozilla not responding" when I open an e-mail, search or open a website?

    Oh dear! That sounds quite frustrating. I would try uninstalling Firefox and then downloading and installing it again. Hope that helps.

  • Why can't I open pictures from texts

    after downloading new update, i cannot open pictures that are texted

    Well, the free Adobe Reader can do very little more than read PDF files. It can certainly not open JPGs.
    I'll assume that you are getting that message when trying to open your JPG file by double clicking on its icon, which would indicate a file association problem. Reinstalling Reader could solve it, and there are other ways which depend on your operating system, but we don't even know if you are on Mac or Win...

  • Why can't I delete Firefox from my add&remove programmes????

    Every time I go into add &remove programmes and click on remove it just blinks and stays there???? It does nothing???? How do I get it OFF my computer????

    This article has an alternate method for uninstalling when the control panel method doesn't work: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox Uninstalling Firefox | How to | Firefox Help]. (See the box below #5)
    If you are planning to reinstall, you might want to make a backup of your Firefox bookmarks and settings. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

  • Why can't I open pics from Pictures folder using Firefox 4?

    I like to use Firefox to open my pics from my Pictures folder. The previous version allowed my to do this. This new version is not working. When I click on the Firefox option from the "open with" drop down box, nothing happens. Previously, the pic would open in a new tab. It doesn't even open in a new window.

    Snowball99, I don't think that element on the gmail is using flash. I opened up the element on the page and there is no embedded attachment. So, I would like to clarify is this an embedded photo in the email or is this an attached pdf, wav, or doc files.
    The attachment is an icon at the bottom of the email, maybe a screenshot would help: please see [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
    Thank you!

  • Why can't I open "mail" from "home page" any more?

    Until today I could open yahoo! mail from a link in the upper left hand corner of my "home page." The link is gone and now I have to Google "Yahoo! Mail" to open mail. From mail I can go to home page by clicking on the house icon but not vice versa
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Today

    So... You want your home page to be Yahoo! Mail??

  • Why can't I open pdfs from a website

    I have pdfs that I used to be able to download or open from a website.  Now I can't do it.  I have Windows 8.1, 64 bit laptop.  Is there a special 64 bit version of Adobe Reader?  If I try to save a pdf, the "save target as" is greyed out in the window.

    What browser are you using to access these PDFs?  What exactly happens when you are trying to open such a PDF?

  • Why can't I open photos from Iphoto in Photoshop?

  • Why can I not open email from comcast?

    Suddenly I have lost the capacity to open email on my Comcast account.  I can view that I have mail but they will not open.

    FIXED!
    Had the same problem. AOL had been working for months, stopped working for no reason. I checked the settings against aol's instructions and the username was wrong - aol state that the username should not have the @aol.com suffix but it did. The next problem encountered was that the iPad would not let me change the username under outgoing smtp settings. Answer is to do the following:
    Go to settings -> mail ->aol account ->outgoing mail server.
    Turn the primary smtp server off.
    Create a new one for smtp.aol.com with the username without @aol.com at the end and your password.
    The rest of the settings should populate automatically.
    Good luck.

  • Why can't I open Word from different apple login?

    I set my wife up with a separate login on our laptop and I noticed that even with full permissions she cannot access any MS Office applications. The program asks to install itself into the HD every time she opens the application, so she'll install it, the application will close, and then we go through the same problem all over again. Any way we can resolve this issue without her needing to login to my account just Word? Thanks

    The answer to your question is no. As long as the software is on the computer, it should be useable.
    Try signing into the Guest account and see if you have the same problem.  You also might try a Safe Mode restart and see if the problem is still present.
    Starting Up in the Safe Mode
    What is Safe Mode
    The first option may identify it as an account problem and the second option may identify it as 3rd party software.
