Why won't Firefox execute after upgrading beyond version 3.0.10?

Whenever I would try to upgrade to a newer version it will not execute. This happens every time I try to upgrade from 3.0.10.
I can however, always go back and re-install 3.0.10 ok.

Why won't Firefox open after updating? Says to close, but how?

Windows 7. Attempted to update to latest Firefox today, but it won't open on my screen. When I attempt to either use the previous version or delete it, it says to close it first. How do I close something I can't see? Thanks.

See:

Try to run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click firefox.exe: Run as Administrator).<br />
If that doesn't solve the problem then remove the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) to do a clean reinstall.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, 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 and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Why won't kodak5210 scan after upgrading to lion

i have upgraded to lion noe my kodak 5210 won't scan

Can you scan directly through Image Capture? Image Capture should be in your Applications folder. It is possible that some of the scanning software that came with your device is not compatible with Lion (PowerPC code) but ImageCapture might work if that's the case.
If that doesn't work, try removing it and reinstalling.

Why won't Firefox install after downloading?

After numerous attempts to fix an installation of Firefox that hung every time I opened it, I uninstalled it. Now I cannot install from the download after following the instructions.

Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.<br />
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

Why won't firefox launch after updating to 9.00

I have been running Firefox 3.6, Every time I update to any new version I am unable to get firefox to lauch so have ended up back with 3.6. What can be the problem. I desperately want to run a newer version.

Why won't Firefox install after I've downloaded the latest version? I can't get it to open. I have it on Mac with OSX system. It worked before the storm killed the power but now it won't open up at all, using the same methods I used before.

My power was shut off due to a storm. When I fired up my Mac, the Fox was nowhere to be found.

Why won't Pages launch after updating iOS version?

Hello, I just updated our iPad 1 from iOS v4.2.something to v5.1.1, and now Pages starts up, but then promptly exits. I will try to delete and reinstall Pages, but after the big update, I had to reinstall the latest Pages anyways.
Thoughts?

Why won't firefox search?

Why won't firefox search when I type anything into the search bar? It lists everything I've typed in before but when you click search it just sits there doing nothing. If I use the search bar in the top right corner it searches just fine, but nothing from the central search line.
Also what is the line below this for? if I mouse over it I get a pointy finger, but it is blank and remains blank.

If you can't clear that saved form and search history then there may be nothing to clear.
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).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
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.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>
If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
Thanks.

After upgrade to version 20 of Firefox websites do not display anymore. Seems like v20 does not work well with ISA

After upgrade to version 20, we receive the following error when trying to open a website:
Error Code: 502 Proxy Error. The ISA Server denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). (12202)
Everything worked fine in the previous version of Firefox.

Found the fix for this:
Just set the following values to false in about:config.
network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies
network.negotiate-auth.allow-proxies

Go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install flash player.

My computer crashes repeatedly and I get the message pages are not responding do you want to stop, and/or shockwave is not responding do you want to stop. I have Windows XP Service Pack 3, I am having the same issues whether I use Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. My HP Pavilion Desktop has 504 MB of Ram and I am using high speed internet connection. Because it was crashing so much, I used the uninstall program for Flash player to uninstall Flash, I checked my registry and removed anything I saw that was Flash. I then uninstalled Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, then I reinstalled the most recent versions from their websites. I did the same for FlashPlayer and Shockwave Flash. I went to the Adobe website and had them check to see if it was working and it shows I have FlashPlayer 10.3.181.36. The page that shows which version of flash player goes with Windows XP states that I should have 10.3.181.34 (This is what I thought I had before I updated, I was having the same problems). When I went into my computer to see what version I have, it shows 11.5.9.620 Activex and both Flash Player and Flash Player Object is listed as 10.3.181.34. My firewall for Windows is set to medium. I also am running Norton Internet Security. It takes anywhere from 3-6minutes for some of my games to load, and I have to refresh at least 3-4 times in order to play. When I do start to play it freezes frequently and I use escape to free it up. This has been going on for a month. I have no idea what to do. I am not very computer savy and I have been learning as I go.
