Why Firefox does not start the Lync online meeting anymore when updated to the version 21.0?

The version 20 worked well. Now the one and only choise is "Get me out of here". I renew the certificate but even "I understand the risks" did not help in the version 21. Now I have to run IE to get the online meeting opened.

hello Seppva, please try this: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''plugins.load_appdir_plugins'''. double-click it and change its value to '''true''' (a restart of the browser might be necessary afterwards for the change to take effect).
some background on the issue is explained in http://www.ghacks.net/2013/05/15/why-you-may-have-lost-access-to-plugins-or-extensions-in-firefox-21/

Firefox does not prompt me to clear private data when I close the program

Firefox used to pop up a window and ask if I want to clear private data whenever I quit from the program. Now there is no prompt from Firefox anymore. I checked the settings and it still has "clear history when Firefox closes" selected.
So is this normal?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Recently, less than a month.

Same thing happens when i click restart.
No difference when i run it in Safe mode. And it won't let me create a new profile either. Is there anyway else i can extract my bookmarks? This is driving me crazy!

Did the crash reporter send any crash reports? 
You can see the crash reports in this folder:
"C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports"
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad
See also [[Firefox crashes when you open it]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]] 
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" 
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files) 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox 
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5.

Firefox does not start by clicking on the icon in RHEL 5 on thin clients, also the internet proxy server usename is not accepted for java applets on webpages. However while using Firefox on the servers directly everthing works fine. This issue occurs on a server thin client environment, where the home directories are located on a 5 TB storage connected using SAS cables to the servers.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I deleted the password from the view password window.

The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

My firefox does not start even though i created a new profile.What is the solution?

My firefox does not start and when i debug, its showing a win32 exception error. what should i do?

this happened when i updated to firefox 2.0.0.4...
Make sure firefox is actually stopped (check "ps axww" output for it). Kill it if it's still running somewhere.
Check your firefox profile area for files named "lock" and ".parentlock". Delete them if you find any.

[solved]firefox does not start anymore: (firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING

Hi All,
Firefox has always worked on the laptop of my girfrind, until yesterday. When I run firefox from the command line I get the following message, and firefox does not start.
ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$ firefox
(firefox:4358): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use
ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$
Versions:
ingeborg@laptop:/storage/home/ingeborg$ firefox -v
Mozilla Firefox 3.6.12, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2010 mozilla.org
$ uname -a
Linux laptop 2.6.35-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Oct 30 19:57:05 UTC 2010 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6670 @ 2.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
When I move .mozilla, firefox starts without problem, so there must be something wrong with the information in ~/.mozilla:
$ mv .mozilla/ .mozilla-moved
ingeborg@laptop:~$ firefox
(firefox:4852): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use
(firefox:4852): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use

Any Idea's how I can figure out what file is causing this problem in .mozilla?
What does code 4358 and 4852 from firefox mean?
Best regards,
Cedric

I have reproduced the problem:
1)Move (or remove) ~/.mozilla
2)goto this website : http://toolbar.zynga.com/install/farmville/
3)login with a valid facebook acount
4)Click install, and then click allow, install now, restart namoraka, restart, finish, and then click save and quit.
Now firefox does not start anymore.
Is it usefull when I make a tar file of .mozilla and post it here?
Best regards,
Cedric

Clicking on a link in Mac Mail Firefox does not open in front of Mail--it used too. The link does open but I have to click on the Firefox icon in the Tray to bring it to full screen. Can you please help

Thanks Jason, I had the same problem and did exactly the steps above. Problem solved! You rock! :)

Firefox does not remember our usernames for hotmail anymore

Since our update to Firefox 4.0, Firefox does not remember our usernames for Hotmail anymore. Only the last used username is remembered.
We don't have problems with other websites regarding this.
So why is it only with Hotmail?
I cleared all cookies, but no change....
Can you help us out?

You can't save the name and password from Hotmail via the Password Manager in current Firefox versions. Hotmail (live.com) uses JavaScript to create the login form. 
You should be able to use save form data to save user names and other form data like I posted above.
Don't you get a drop down list that shows previously entered names?
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

You could try a SMC reset:

If no change, do what Allan advises.
Caio.

My airport express seems to be broken -- light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset". Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow.

AX light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset". Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow. I assume this is a goner?

Unfortunately, based on your description, I would have to second that your Express is a "goner." However, before giving up on the unit, be sure that you attempt a "factory default" reset at least 3x just to be sure.

I just installed Yosemite. iPhoto is gone, and Photos does not open. Instead, I am prompted to update to the latest version. The App Store tells me that is not available in the US. What do I do? Cannot access any photos.

Firefox does not start in Windows Vista. It can be seen in the task manager that the process is running. But nothing happens. After deleting the process it still does not work.

Are there any issues with Firefox 10 and Vista? IE works.

Hi webero,
There are no Known Issues that I am aware of. You should take a look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] and our article called [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox will not start].
Hopefully this helps!
