Why must other users must get admin approval to start Firefox?

Since I had upgraded to latest firefox version, the desktop firefox icon includes a shield and asks for administrator permission to open. I also recently had problem with Windows 7 update process which required many steps to correct; but that was at least a week before my firefox upgrade.

Sorry, I didn't mean to click the button "I have this problem". I have a problem with my mouse. Anyway, yes this is not uncommon. Windows 7 is a very secure operating system because it is completely paranoid about every program. As far as I am aware, this is not Firefox's fault.

  • When I close Firefox and try to restart it, my system thinks it's still running, and I must reboot in order to start Firefox 3.6.11.

    When I close Firefox and try to restart it, my system thinks it's still running, and I must reboot in order to start Firefox 3.6.11. I'm running Windows Vista and this is the only program that has this problem. Another symptom is the program does not show up in my recently used programs list nor is it in the task list once I've closed it, though Windows will not open it because it thinks it's still running.

    I am also using Windows Vista 64 bit and have the same problem..what i do is instead of rebooting the computer press CTRL ALT and DELETE key. start the task manager and go to the Process tab and look for firefox .exe click on it and hit the end process tab. close that window and firefox should run... and this problem started when i upgraded to firefox 3.6.12
    If anyone has a permanent solution please post.

  • Can't log in to any other user account except admin

    I have one computer (out of a lab full of 36 computers) that has a problem creating additional accounts beyond the first.
    I can set up multiple other accounts (either admin, standard, or managed accounts), but I can't log in to any other accounts except the admin account. Here's what I do:
    1. When the computer was unpacked I set up the admin user, and automatic login of the admin user using the usual Apple first run setup windows.
    2. In System Preferences -> Accounts, I click the lock and enter my admin password so I can make other accounts. This works fine.
    3. I create an account and give it a password (I've tried blank passwords too).
    3a. The system warns me that automatic login is turned on (set to the admin user currently). I click the "Keep Automatic Login" button. The other account is now created and all looks well; I can see it's home folder in the Users folder.
    4. I switch to the Login Options view, and choose that other account from the automatic login popup menu.
    4a. The system prompts me for the account password. This is where the problem happens.
    4b. On 35 of the computers, this works fine. One 1 computer, the system warns me that "You did not enter the correct password for your user account." I can click OK there, but nothing I enter for the password works.
    I also tried logging out from the admin user, and I simply can not log in to any other account. I've tried one letter passwords; I've tried blank passwords; I've tried variations on account names; I've tried all-caps; I've tried all-lowercase. I can log in to the admin account with no problems; I can set up as many other accounts as I like, but I can't use any of them.
    Any ideas? Should I just wipe the hard drive and re-install? That's certainly a viable option, but it's baffling me why it's only this one out of 36 computers having the problem.

    Smells like a corrupted OS installation. Two options. Erase & Install or hook it up to a good machine, via target disk mode, and clone the booted machine, using something like Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper!, etc., after erasing and reformatting the calcitrant machine, and see if that fixes things.

  • File Vault Useless when Other User Has Full Admin Rights?

    Question:
    I'm about to send my MacBook Pro in for service. I've backed it up to a bootable clone, but I'd still rather not erase all my stuff, in case they send it back as-is (they do sometimes do that if they don't have to reinstall OSX).
    So, I've given the guest user account full admin privileges on this machine and created it without a password so the AppleCare boys can do what they need to do.
    My question is, is my account secure if it is password protected and encrypted with File Vault?
    Or, if somebody was feeling malicious, couldn't they just reset the password for my account in the guest account preferences or create a new master password for the machine, since the guest account has full admin rights?
    Thanks for any quick answers!

    Hi bscepter;
    If you are that paranoid about your data, the best
    thing for you to do is to remove it off of the
    machine before you send it in.
    Allan
    I'm not "that paranoid" about my data. I was merely curious if File Vault would protect my data should somebody with another admin account want to access or delete it. I mentioned this in my initial post.
    But thanks, anyway.

    2. Since you mentioned this worked fine and nothing else is changed over a year, the possible cause may be like this. Looks like you have some Documentum stuff (or webapp or modules) loaded on this server. I am not much familiar with EMC Documentum stuff, except that we use that as external Content Management repository for Portal Applications. Looking at the full thread dump for thread 0, looks like documentum code is trying to publish something or interact with its documentum server and may be it is not getting the response back. So make sure if any external systems that this WLS interacts are all up and running.

    Getting the following error message when I start Firefox. ''TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined''
    Do not know where to go to fix this. Running my laptop on Windows 7.

    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).

  • Accesing Home folders of other users via an Admin User

    Hello all, the macs at where I work are divided into two hardrives a Mac HD and a Media Drive where all video projects are to be save. Some people continue to save to the Mac HD causing the computers to crash. I am trying to look through home folders via Go Home > MAC HD > Users > Username > Movies when i reach the restircted folder.
    How can This be changed?

    Select the folder you can't access in the Finder and choose Get Info from the File menu. Under Ownership & Permissions, change the owner to yourself and group to admin, set the permissions so that the group has Read & Write access to the folder, and then change the ownership back to its original setting. This should not be done on items outside of account home folders.

  • Everything  OK for me on, but when I send to other users, they get problems

    Hi,
    I did some music to video (advert), put the music on the quicktime movie ok and everything is playing fine on my machine. I sent the movies to one client - everything was Ok, another client couldn't open the files. I re-sent an edit to the first client, this time they couldn't get sound.
    Now, everything seems fine on my macbook pro, so does anyone know why other people are experiencing problems opening, and listening to my files.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Not sure what made the recording. I mean apart from my own macbook pro adding the soundtrack.
    Any suggestions as to what I should do. Should I re-install quicktime, components?
    I'm at a bit of a loss here as to what I should do, so any suggestions would be great.
    Thanks

  • ¿Why can other users in my pc view and restore my last session even if they're not administrators?

    my pc (OS Windows Vista) has 3 different users. today i closed my session and casually log on with another user, when i opened the browser i had the option to restore my last session so i did it and surprisingly it opened the last session (including the inbox of my email) of my administrator account. so, what should i do if i don't want to have more privacy?

    Don't change the permissions on the Home folder or you might end up with various issues.
    Open the Terminal and type this command:ls -ale /Users/username The folder with a single . at the end is your home folder. It should look like this drwxr-xr-x+ and the Access Control Lists (ACLs) that it prints below the home folder should be: 0: group:everyone deny delete
    If you create a folder directly inside of your home folder, it will inherit the permissions of the home folder, except it won't use the same ACLs. You would need to change the permissions to match the other folders. The default permissions and ACLs are:ls -ale /Users/testuser/
    drwxr-xr-x+ 13 testuser staff 442 Apr 18 07:09 .
    0: group:everyone deny delete
    drwx------+ 3 testuser staff 102 Jul 20 2008 Desktop

    drwx------+ 4 testuser staff 136 Jul 20 2008 Pictures
    0: group:everyone deny delete
    drwxr-xr-x+ 5 testuser staff 170 Jul 20 2008 Public
    0: group:everyone deny delete
    drwxr-xr-x+ 5 testuser staff 170 Jul 20 2008 Sites
    0: group:everyone deny delete I did cut out some of the output. The first line is the home folder (indicated by a .) You'll also have the Users folder, . ., and some hidden files.
    If you have any extra ACLs, that may be why she can see into the folders.

  • I get an error when starting firefox on several user profiles: the bookmarks and history are not functional something about the file being in use.

    Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 workstations, the appdata folder is redirected to a network share at \\server\profiles and several users are unable to use bookmarks getting an error about the file being in use. I'm wondering if maybe my antivirus (Trend Micro) or my backups (Symantec) might be locking up the places.sqlite for these users? Though I don't understand why it would be for some users and not others. I can't be the first one and I'm not coming up with anything searching google endlessly. Anybody else run into this?

    hello, yes this is likely caused by an external program locking access to the bookmarks/history database. you could try renaming the file in question & see if it is working when it is regenerated, this will clear bookmarks and the history though, so keep a backup...

    I want an address bar so i dont have to do searches to get to a website have looked at the help pages and cant find out how to get one i thought it would be automatic so why dont i have one

    ''Missing Location bar''
    Part of the problem in looking for solutions is that Firefox calls it the Location bar.
    Use the "Alt" key to show menus, then View > Toolbars > (check) Location bar
    See item #2 in restoring Menu bar and '''other''' toolbars
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

  • WLS 10.0 cannot get Admin Console to start

    Hi,
    We have WLS 10.0 with Jrocket on a Windows Server.
    We have two domains and they have been working fine for well over a year until this morning. I cannot bring up the Admin Console for the 2 domains. The domains are setup to start up automatically and they get stopped and started every Saturday. This week the restart seems to have failed, The services were showing as started but we could not login into the WLS Admin Console or the web applications that the domains host.
    As far as i know nothing should have changed with the server.
    Event viewer is not showing any issues.
    I tried to start the WLS for the 'da' domain from the cmd line and am now seeing the following in the AdminServer.log (FYI, the domain log is not being created). I have had to remove some lines to make the post :

    There is enough memory, and the CPU usaage does not get too high.
    I have searched the forums and cant find what could be causing the blocking.
    The startup hangs at the following line :
    <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000365> <Server state changed to STARTING>
    doing a Ctrl-C to stop the startup then produces the dump entries in the adminserver.log file :
    There is no error or warning in the adminserver.log file.
    What should I be checking to find out what is going on ? is this a known issue ?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    1. Looking carefully at the following 3 lines in server statup logs, after 2:20:39 PM GST, server waited like for 16 mts like 2:36:43 and invoked the Force Shutdown. Possible reasons I gave below.
    ####<Feb 14, 2010 2:20:37 PM GST> <Info> <netuix> <ePIMSEDMS2> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '3' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <1266142837729> <BEA-423101> <[console] Initializing the NetUIx container>

    2. Since you mentioned this worked fine and nothing else is changed over a year, the possible cause may be like this. Looks like you have some Documentum stuff (or webapp or modules) loaded on this server. I am not much familiar with EMC Documentum stuff, except that we use that as external Content Management repository for Portal Applications. Looking at the full thread dump for thread 0, looks like documentum code is trying to publish something or interact with its documentum server and may be it is not getting the response back. So make sure if any external systems that this WLS interacts are all up and running.
