Will not start on New Install. Opening goes straight to Crash reporter

Will not start on New Install. Clicking on icon does not open a window and goes straight to Crash reporter. I cannot access a window to try to open in safe mode (unless there is another method than outlined in the help article).
I run Windows XP and trying to install the latest 15.0.1 version. Before install, I did disable my Symantic virus protection. I have never used Firefox and would like to try it, but I'm having little success so far to even get started.
Please let me know if anyone has any other ideas or need more information from me.

hello Singyt, the bug report associated to this kind of crash indicates that it might be a malware related issue.
your crash report also shows a file named "urixalog.dll", which doesn't turn up any search hits on google, which is also slightly suspicious. could you search for that file on your pc and upload it to a site like virustotal.com in order to analyze it.
please do a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes].
[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]
edit: the bug report also suggests that a monitoring program named spector pro/360/... which essentially acts like malware, might cause the issue. in case you have that installed please remove it. otherwise [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20crashes%20when%20you%20open%20it#w_backdoor-ulrbot-c here] would be a removal guide for urixalog.dll

  • Aperture 3.6 will not start after new install

    Rebuilt my Mac Mini with a clean install of Yosemite 10.10.2 and reinstalled all my apps. Downloaded and installed Aperture from the App Store but it will not start. No crash, just nothing. Does its animated thing when double-clicked in Finder, and goes through the usual launch action from Launchpad, but then nothing. No icon in the dock, does not appear (even momentarily) in Activity Monitor. I have Final Cut Express installed and have seen other launch issues with this combo, but they all seem to result in an Aperture crash. Any ideas?

    Did you install Final Cut Express after you installed MacOS X?  Then install Yosemite again on top of the current system, without reinstalling the applications. See: Aperture 3.x: Aperture unexpectedly quits if Final Cut Express 4 is installed
    Aperture does not work after installing FCE, but if you reinstall MacOS X after installing FCE,  both Aperture and Final Cut Express sgizld work.
    The download of Aperture may be incomplete. If reinstalling the system does not solve this, trash Aperture and download again.

  • OS 9 will not start, but its installed

    I did a software restore on my G4 flat panel mac os 10.2.8. Now classic will not start. I dragged the system folder for mac os 9 to my hard drive, which was located on the mac os 9 install cd. I am unable to start my computer from the os 9 cd. When I open system preferences and under the classic folder it says select a system folder for classic. Under Hard drive the system folder is highlighted. However, when I start classic, i get this white box which says: The system software on the startup disk only functions on the original media, not if copied to another drive. In the background is the much larger box that always shows up when classic starts. But it doesnt start. the white box just appears and I am completely lost. I tried to install os 9, but it says it is already installed and the white box appears again. Please help.

    Medina,
    6 CDs is exactly right, these are your restore discs. You should be able to insert the first one and run the restore program. If I could find my copies of the 6 CD's from my old iMacG4 (now given away) I could tell you exactly where to look, but it's can't see the wood for the trees here.
    Always the last place you look. And now I see what you mean. And this now explains everything.
    I think that the 6 CDs you have are exactly the same as mine, that is they are for a first generation FP iMac. For this iMac you had to boot of the first CD (into OS9 - despite what I assumed earlier). This would explain the presence of an OS9 System Folder on the restore CDs.
    Now if you cannot boot from the first CD, it would suggest that these CDs did not come with your iMac. I'd be a bit perplexed as to how you managed to restore OSX 10.2 (in your first post) and now you're up to OSX 10.3.
    None of this matters though. With a bit of copying you should be able to get a usable OS9 system folder onto your iMac. You'll need about 5G of free disk space.
    On each CD is a Configurations folder. In there is a disk image "iMac HD Disc #", where # is from 1 to 6. You should copy each of these to your iMac internal hard disk, in a folder all of their own. Then mount the first disk image, all the rest should be used as required and you'll end up with an original iMac mounted disk image. You can then copy the System Folder from that to your internal hard disk. Then unmount the disk image and trash the 6 disk image files.
    If you need more detailed instructions, let us know.

  • FP Install Will Not Start after DLM Install

    The FP installation will not start after an apparent DLM installation.  The DLM appears to install and the control panel shows it is present, but the FP installation will not start.  There are no other messages that appear.  A restart and reinstallation attempt installs the DLM again, but still no FP install.  Using XP SP3 and IE 8.0.
    Thx

    Hi mont1228,
    The Adobe Download Manager (DLM) executes the Flash installer in "silent mode" so you shouldn't see a dialog box.  To confirm that Flash was installed successfully, go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and let me know if the animation doesn't appear.

  • Premiere Elements 12 will not start a new project

    I loaded Premiere Elements 12 on my...
    64bit HP Laptop Dv7
    Intel core i7
    Windows 7
    Radeon Graphics (HD 6770m)
    updated Quicktime
    updated display drivers as requested when first installed.
    reloaded PE 12
    Started PE12 but when i click Video Editor and then select New Project the button shows the purple and black lines for about a minute and then stops and nothing happens
    I have almost given up.  I have been trying to load this program on my pc for 5 days.  Nothing but problems.  I have asked pc gurus at work and no one has a clue what could be wrong.
    Why will Adobe Premiere Elements 12 not start on my laptop?
    by the way there is no BadDrivers.txt file to delete that i can find...
    Does anyone have a clue as to why the application would not start?

    Rotary
    It is late where I am so I will give you some things to work on.
    Premiere Elements does not fare well with 2 video cards/graphics cards. Have you disabled the Intel and observed the consequences?
    Determine if the problem is there with and without the antivirus disabled.
    BadDrivers.txt file
    Local Disk C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    in the Premiere Elements Folder will be one file and some folders. You do not want the folders or what is in them. You want that file which is the BadDrivers.txt file. Be sure to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the complete path shown. Be aware that after you open the program again after the file deletion, the program will generate a new BadDrivers.txt file but by that time the problem should be gone (hopefully).
    I would probably be going after the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file -
    Local Disk C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    12.0
    and in the 12.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists.
    Better yet....check out the information in the following blog posts

  • My macbook will not start. when powered up it goes to a blank white screen with a folder with a ? on it

    When I start my computer instead of just going to the main screen it goes straight to a blank white page with a folder with a question mark on it that keeps flashing. What's wrong with it?

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
    With 10.4, 10.5 or 10.6 put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    Or if you are running 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion, boot from the recovery partition (Command +R on boot) and use Disk Utility to repair your OS 10.7 or 10.8 partition.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions. After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • Macbook pro will not start up after installing anti virus program.

    Cannot back up - is there anyway to go back to prior to installation of software (last sunday)?  I took this to the apple store yesterday and they told me I must back up my data so I do not lose it but i cannot get it to start up to do so.  It started several times yesterday but will not today.
    This macbook was purchsed on amazon.com last october in germany and the warranty (per the apple store) started in June when amazon bought this machine from them so nothing is covered.  I am a foreign exchange student (from germany) in michigan for the year and really need to get the computer going and am willing to lose my data if I cannot get it to back up.
    What steps can I take to either get computer up (is there a "safe" mose like a windows product) or is there anything I can so short of wiping system clean myself?
    Please advise and thank you

    Interesting attitude.  Whether they get infected or not is not the point, they will not be very happy to have received it in the first place.
    Safe mode will not work.  I am not sure what to do from here - can I just wipe out the system and reinstall since I cant get the system to start up in safe OR back up my files??
    By "Safe mode will not work" do you mean it crashed in Safe Mode too or do you mean you couldn't get it to go into Safe Mode?
    Try pressing Cmd R during boot. This will boot you into Lion Recovery. You might be able to reinstall Lion without affecting your files.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1533
    You should have your old OS X disk, the one that came with your computer.  You can boot from that disk and perhaps copy your files from the hard drive before you try anything else.  Recovering files this way is not something I've had to do so I can't give much advice.

  • Macbook pro will not start from the install disk

    I have a 13 macbook pro that i am giving to my sister. I am trying to wipe my info and put hers on it. I followed the directions on the apple website and it wouldn't work. I realized that i was using the install disk from my imac. Now that I am using the correct install disk it gets stuck with a gray screen with the apple logo. It stays in this state until the screen goes black and does nothing. I also went into system preferences and told it to start using the install disk now it wont even start it just gets stuck on the gray screen. please help.

    Hold down "C" while the computer turns on, then choose the DVD.

  • My iPhone will not start after new software update. Freeze on apple screen

    I updated the phone software today through the new software update directly from the phone and it will not restart past the apple screen. I have tried a hard restart, no dice.
    wish I had waited.

    Got it back up and working by putting in recovery mode and restoring through itunes, but lost lots of settings and app. info. I took about 4 efforts to resync after restore, not sure why, certainly not smooth or intuitive. 2 hours of my life I wish I had back.

  • Firefox was working, then when I clicked the icon to open, it said it needed to restart to complete a previous installation. After restart, it will not start at all, goes straight to crash report in regular and safe mode.

    The only recent changes to the PC are:
    Ran latest Microsoft updates.
    Installed Halo2, F1 and TinTin games (all purchased from store, installed off original CD)
    Installed DirectX
    Installed Microsoft Games for Windows Live and reditributable
    Installed Visual C++ 2005 redistributable.
    Have tried new installation of FF, won't install, repeats dialog about needing to restart to complete a previous installation (see question above)

    let's try swapping out your QuickTime.
    head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.

    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

  • Will not print a new window opened from an https: site eg phone bill. will print in IE

    When I try to print monthly statements, they open in a new window, click print and it starts the printer and then comment"an unexpected error occured" I can do this in IE8 with no problems. My printer is a Canon mf4380dn. I never had this problem with my previous Canon AIO printer
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I try to print my monthly statements

    kate2006,
    Verify that the ink cartridges are intact and securely inserted into the printhead, then make the same print.
    1. Lift the printer access door, then remove the ink cartridges from the printhead.
    2. Verify that the label on the ink cartridges is intact, and the cartridges are not damaged.
    3. Insert the ink cartridges into the printhead, then press down firmly until you hear them click into position.
    4. Close the printer access door, then make the same print.
    If that doesn't work try:
    Clean the printhead, then print a demo sheet.
    1. Verify that inkjet paper is loaded in the paper trays.
    2. Press Menu.
    3. Select Clean Printhead, then press OK.
    4. Select Deep Clean, then press OK. The On/Off light flashes green during the cleaning procedure.
    5. When the On/Off light glows a steady green, select Print Demo Sheet, then press Start.
    I hope that helps

  • HotSync will not start with new Tungsten E2

    I'm upgrading my old Tungsten T2 device with an E2.  Following the upgrade instructions, I set up the E2 last night and let it charge overnight, then this evening did a final HotSync with the T2, and ran the installation program on the CD that came with the E2.  At the point where the installer asks me to press the HotSync button on the USB cable I did so, and Windows popped up the notice in the system tray that a new USB device and that the Palm Handheld device was ready for use.  After that, nothing.  A minute or two later the E2 times out and tells me that "The connection between your device and the desktop could not be established.  Please check your setup and try again."
    I've tried re-installing the software, upgrading to Palm Desktop 6.2 from the web site,and restarting the computer several times, but I can never get the HotSync manager to respond to the E2.
    By contrast, the HotSync manager will still synchronize with my old T2.
    Post relates to: Tungsten E2
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Palm Desktop is running on Windows XP.  I have been using version 4.1.0 which came with my T2.  For the E2 I've tried versions 4.1.0, 4.1.4e, and 6.2.
    I should point out that Windows XP in turn is running in VMware Workstation 6.5, on a Fedora 10 (Linux 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10) host.  Last Sunday I tried booting Windows XP natively (which was a royal pain, since I have to switch hard drives to do so), installing Palm Desktop 6.2 there, and hotsyncing.  That configuration worked, as far as the device being able to connect to the PC.
    Unfortunately it only synced my to-do list and a few 3rd-party programs; it lost all of my memos, contacts, calendar events, and photos.  But that's another topic.
