Browser will not start. I have to restart my computer each time to use the fire fox browser.
This just happened a few days ago.It's very frustrating.
I recently downloaded new updates for fire fox.

  • For the past few weeks when I place a bid on ebay, Firefox crashes. The bid goes through but I have to restart Firefox each time. I have sent a report each time and asked to be notified and as of yet I have not got a solution to this problem.

    For the past few weeks when I place a bid on ebay, Firefox crashes. The bid goes through but I have to restart Firefox each time. I have sent a report each time and asked to be notified and as of yet I have not got a solution to this problem.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • I have to restart ipad each time for internet access.  Why?

    I have to restart ipad each time for internet access and some games.  Never happened until about 2 weeks ago.  ?

    Firefox is a browser: it doesn't require you to 'sign in'.
    It sounds to me like you have some kind of malware installed if you're required to 'sign in' every time you use it.
    I'd recommend you use Internet Explorer (''assuming that doesn't require you to 'sign in' too'') to go to http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and download the free version. It will quarantine any malware it finds so restart Firefox afterwards to see whether the problem recurs or not.

  • Pavillion G72 Synaptics TouchPad will not start from a restart or a cold bbot.

    After the broken LCD screen was replaced the Synaptics TouchPad will not start up.  I deinstalled and reinstalled driver 15.3.29.0 downloaded from the HP driver web site.  The icon will not display.  In the ICon Notification Area settings, when I choose "show icon and notifications" the response is a message that the icon is inactive.
    If I click on the the shortcut in the startup folder for SynTPEnh.exe the icon displays, disables the TouchPad becasue it detects the wireless mouse (as selected in the checkbox).  After a system restart or cold boot it does not run.
    In System Configuration, whereas all programs start as C:\Program Files\... , the one for SynTPEnh.exe dislays as C:\PROGRA~1\SYNAPT...  Is this the problem/
    I found the same at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run but editing that to match the other programs made no difference.
    What do I need to do to make SynTPEnh.exe start up?
    Thank you

    Running  OS Name    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium   
    Version    6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 Build 7601
    Note also that the Synaptics TouchPad is not listed on the Control Panel under Adjust Your Computer's Settings as.  Should show up as Synaptics TouchPad V7.5

  • My MBP will not start up after restart

    My MBP (late 2011 running 10.8.something - receintly updated) will not start up after I had to do a restart to install Blackberry Desktop software (for my wife, I promise).  It chimes, gets past the grey screen with the Apple logo and then just sits on the login screen but with the background only, no account or anything.  My mouse pointer is there and moves but nothing else.  Anyone have any idea?

    Reboot holding the Shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this is Safe Mode and will disable the at boot kernel extension file that Blackberry installed.
    When you get in uninstall the software using their uninstaller. Then reboot normally again, visit their website for a update if there is one.
    Blackberry/RIM software has been causing issues around here lately.
    If your machine refuses to boot normally again, then run through this list 1-8,, by #8 your machine should be booting normally again.

  • Firefox will not start, have repeatedly reloaded it form your site, on my XP (SP£) PC?

    Desktop icon / exe file will not start Firefox. Have repeatedly downloaded it & works for a short time & then fails. Also experiencing screen freezing, having to restart PC - are these connected?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) 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 and the plugin-container 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.

  • ITunes will not start:  Get same error message ever time...

    I installed iTunes 6 and quicktime and now it will not start up at all. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling as many have. The only difference is I am actually getting an error message. I do not get an hour glass as many have. I have tried deleting the suggested file found at: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info
    This did not work either. I keep getting the following error window, and never see iTunes even try to launch: PLEASE HELP!!!!
    "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienence. If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on may be lost. For more information about this error click here"

    hi Josh!
    "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienence.
    the first thing i check for with one of those is a broken quicktime. does your quicktime currently launch? if it doesn't, try these techniques:

  • Firefox will not start after I restart my computer.

    I can close firefox and restart the program just fine as long as I don't shut down my computer. If I open the profile manager, I can change profiles and this fixes it but this is only a temporary fix.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == just recently

    Hmmmm, http://www.seattlepi.com/ loads fine hear in 10.4.11, FF 3.6.8, but I do see it uses some kind of Flash.
    The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

  • I am running windows 7 on a 64 bit computer. Itunes will not start unless I restart my computer and then sometimes it doesn't want to start. I need some help.

    I am running itunes on a 64 bit computer with Windows 7 installed. The only way I can get itunes to open is to restart my computer. Restarting doesn't always work but that is the only option I have. I can find no problems with my system except this one. All my other programs seem to run and open OK. Any suggestions would be helpful. I am running the latest version of itunes. This issue is on my desktop. I also own an Acer Laptop that is also beginning to act up in the same way.

    Have you checked to see whether the App Store appis hidden via Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'on' ?

  • My MacBook pro will not start. There is computer speak all over the screen. It says Debugger called: panic. Anyone help? Thanks

    I was playing COD4 when the computer locked and told me to force a restart.
    When I try to restart it, it takes forever then the force restart message comes up and it freezes again.
    There is computer language on the screen when this happens with the words " Debugger called:panic"
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Brent

    If you're able to boot, launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search, and select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.

  • Firefox will not start, have to reinstall firefox

    only happened to me after i switch to comcast and use norton anti virus.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
