Will not open in normal mode

Firefox will crash every time I try to open it. It then opens in safe mode. I have reset it and restarted the computer and it still crashes. I have sent over 127 crash reports in December alone. I have tried to reinstall but it stops and says it cannot continue to install. None of my programs that use the internet will open I get a "stopped working" or Launcher stopped working message. (PCMatic, Quicken, Malewarebytes, Superfast PC) and many other programs that I've downloaded and uninstalled after they will not load. Nothing seems to correct the problem
Short of doing a clean install of windows and starting all over again I do not know what to try next.

Will not start in normal mode

Firefox 19.0.2 was running OK. Today will not open in normal mode only safe mode. Uninstalled 19, rebooted, installed fresh copy of 20.0 Same problem. Updated Plugins ( Java, Flash, QuickTime, Silverlight) Restart Firefox same problem. Disabled Plugins, restart, same problem. Change to compatibility mode Windows XP SP3, Firefox opens normally. No extensions enabled. No Addons used. Using default theme
Firefox will not release from RAM when closed. Use Task Manager to End Process. Doesn't allow closing of Firefox. Must reboot.
Have not added any new software or hardware to system.
Submitted multiple Crash reports to Mozilla

Disabling the Hardware Acceleration did the trick!
Thank you!

I have no navigation bar and firefox will not open in safe mode to reset to default config. Reinstalling doesn't work. Any help please.

I have no navigation bar ever since I closed it to gain more space on the screen. It won't re-open. Firefox will not open in safe mode, but opens immediately in normal mode with the new improper config, so I cannot reset to default config. I erased Firefox and re-installed and it still opens with the same faulty config. Why does Firefox not give me the safe mode dialog box, why can I not re-open the nav bar, and how can I do these two things, please? Firefox is currently unusable for me without a nav bar and without access to the default settings in safe mode. I cannot research the extensions I'm running since I have no nav bar to go to Tools, Add-ons, Extensions.

Hit the '''Alt''' key to show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar and Navigation bar, so they have a check-mark.

My safari will not load in normal mode. I can load in safe mode only.

My safari will not load in normal mode. i can only load in safe mode.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Firefox crashes when opening and will not open in safe mode

Recently FF3 started crashing when opening. It will not open in safe mode as well. I have uninstalled it including deleting the install folder and profile folders as well as registry entries. Upon reinstallation is will still not launch in any mode.
I have scanned for malware with several scanners and that has not found anything.
Here is the crash report cause - nsCOMPtr_base::~nsCOMPtr_base() | nsDocShell::SetupNewViewer(nsIContentViewer*)
Anti-virus is Trend Micro Worry Free for Business. I uninstalled it and Firefox and then reinstalled only Firefox and still get the same thing.
I do not know what to try next.

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

ITunes will not open full screen mode in Mavericks

Hello,
Ever since a recent upgrade to Mavericks, iTunes will not open in full screen. When I click the full screen expander in the controls or in View>Enter Full Screen iTunes flashes the library and then back to the movie playing and makes the "funk" sound.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, open System Preferences > General, and make sure that "Close windows when quitting an application" is marked. Then, open iTunes and press the Esc key to get out of full-screen, and close iTunes. The next time it starts, it should be in a classic window

Wireless works FINE in Safe Mode, WILL NOT work in Normal Mode

Hi All:
I've been smashing my head against the wall with this one. I have uninstalled ALL unnecessary applications I could find. Basically all that is left is Windows XP, Drivers and Patches in Add/Remove Programs. I have removed the wireless driver, downloaded a newer one and installed it, still nothing. I have tried it using no Wireless Security on the AP, and also using WPA, and wouldn't work with either in Normal Mode, but worked with both in Safe Mode. I ran a virus and spyware check (before uninstalling Norton), and it came out clean.
The weirest thing is, sometimes it does connect and get an IP in Normal Mode, but when I run a ping to my local gateway, half the packets are lost (timeout), and the ones that do reply I see a response time ranging from 2ms to 5000ms with no other traffic. I have no idea what can be causing this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If all else fails, I will resort to formatting it and installing WinXP from scratch, since I doubt it's hardware.

It appears that some device whose driver does not load in Safe Mode malfunctions.
If this occurs before loading any drivers for added devices, then you'll need service.

Itunes will not open in recovery mode

My ipad was corrupted and froze so I tried to use recovery mode to restore. However, iTunes does not open after connecting ipad to PC. I connect the cable while pressing home button and when the iTunes logo as well as the cable picture is on then try to start iTunes but it does not start. I can see in task manager that iTunes is an active process but it will not start on pc. I can start iTunes when device is not connected. When I connect ipad while iTunes is on, it does not recognize the device. I have removed and re-installed iTunes twice already. Please help.

Reload the current iTunes onto your computer from

Error 404, website not found. Uninstalled, installed, firewall fixed to allow programs. Will not open in safe mode.

Google chrome works fine, but Firefox gets an error code 404. Windows Firewall is configured to allow the program, I have uninstalled/reinstalled, and it won't open, not even in safe mode. Still a 404 code. The same thing is happening to Safari. I can't fix settings in Firefox if it doesn't open. Any other suggestions?

Once Firefox is open, if you press Ctrl+n to open a new window, does it show the same error or does it work and show your home page?
'''No! I get the same error.''' Check your home page setting as the URL may be corrupted. These articles should point the way:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
Any improvement?
'''Yes! That works.''' Check for a hijacked shortcut. Here's how:
Right-click your Firefox shortcut/icon > Properties > Shortcut tab. The "Target" for 32-bit Windows 7 should be this (no more, no less):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
If anything else follows that, remove it. Save your change and test the icon again.

Firefox will not start, will not open in safe mode, and still will not work after clean reinstall, Mac/OSX

One moment I was using Firefox the same as I always have. The only difference was that I changed the preferences to erase history when quitting Firefox. When trying to open the program again, it is immediately unresponsive. I attempted opening it in safe mode and a window will appear but never load, and Firefox remains unresponsive. I could not reset Firefox either. I deleted the application and re-downloaded Firefox, but it changed nothing. I am in OSX 10.7.4. Can anyone help?

Hello chillman4130, try to create a new profile(in case that you profile is corrupted), go (with closed firefox...... it is anyway) to /Applications/Utilities > Open the Terminal application > in the Terminal application, enter the following:
* /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -p
Press Return
the above opens Profile Manager, if the profile manager open then see : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles#w_creating-a-profile Creating a profile]
then see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile Recovering important data from an old profile]

thank you

Upgraded to newest version of Firefox all the links were broken, it will not open in Safe Mode or anywhere else-before I uninstall it I'd like to access save my user names and and passwords from websites- can i access them without opening the browser

i can not launch browser toget version info or anything else, when it upgraded to newest version it stopped working-i've tried launching in Safe Mode and have tried all icons

You can save a copy of your passwords file, but I don't think you can open it without Firefox.
Your passwords file is in your profile folder. You might want to make a backup copy of the whole folder. Info on locating the folder: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles Profiles | How to | Firefox Help].
You may want to try reinstalling Firefox 3.6. You can download the installer from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older

Firefox will not open, it goes right to crash reporter, and it will not open in safe mode(crash reporter again).

I added adblock, that seemed to work OK. The same day I was tracking down slow download speeds with my ISP and they had me go to, I think...I can't remember to well, the tools menu and erase cookies, passwords, etc. I don't remember what else was erased,
in order to "speed up my browser". Maybe I shouldn't have blindly done that. Anyway, when I tried to start Firefox it just goes straight to the crash reporter. It opens fine under Admin and other users.

Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox doesn't usually solve anything, because most problems are contained in the profile.

Based on the value of the ''keyword.URL'' preference, it looks like your system is either infected with malware, or was at some point in the past. You also seem to have a user JS file, which could prevent you from modifying certain preferences.

I upgraded to Firefox 12.0. Now, my Gmail calendar will not open in edit mode. I reverted to Explorer, and the calendar does open there. What is the remedy?

I upgraded to Firefox 12.0. Now, when I attempt to reach my Gmail calendar, it only comes up in read-only mode. I temporarily went to Explorer. the calendar comes up in edit mode without issue. What should be my next steps to resolve this?

Glad it worked, Thanks for posting back. It is a simple solution but often overlooked. I have often myself wasted time on looking for more complex solutions.
