Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Won't uninstall, Couldn't Read Application.ini issue, Won't start up..

    Tried to uninstall version 3.6.1.3, wouldn't complete uninstallation. Installed Beta 4, now it won't work. I have had multiple issues trying to start it (XULRunner issue) and I am not a computer geek. Don't know how to really uninstall and re-install, except the little button on the computer.. It has been kinda crashing/ slow/ Unable to find Server for about a week now. All of this fun stuff with Firefox began today.
    Can't even start in Safe mode. ARG!

  • I get a "Couldn't read application.ini" message when trying to get on Firefox. What can I do?

    I am not able to use Firefox as my browser because of this message. Some of my files were deleted to make room. Is there any way to recover this?

    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

  • Resolve error in Firefox 7.0.1 - executing an auto log-on produces the following error message: XULRunner-Couldn't load XRE function?

    Following an upgrade from Firefox 6.0.2 to Firefox 7.0, this error appeared in response to accessing Firefox! Executing an auto log-on produces the following error message: XULRunner-Couldn't load XRE functions.
    Also, following an upgrade from V7.0 to V7.0.1, the same error occurs.
    Following the In-place Upgrade from Vista Home Premium x64 to Win 7 HP x64, the RoboForm2Go taskbar is no longer on the program display page, rather it is confined to the bottom taskbar. This is likely due to a reported incompatibility between Roboform2Go and Firefox v7.0 (and 7.0.1).
    Further, there was a failure of RoboForm2Go Log-ins from the bottom quick-start taskbar.

  • Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Unistall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Uninstall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

  • Open specific PDF document in Windows 8.1 Reader Application without File Associating

    I have a user case where i need to be able to open one spesific PDF document without changing "File Associating" from Adobe Reader. Is there a good way to open the reader app and a document from CMD or simular? I know I manual can use "Open
    With" but this is not a option because I need to do this in one operation from a shortcut on the start screen.

    Hi,
    For command option, you may find adobe reader application path, 
    just like that:

  • In 10.8, the file info window's "Kind:" read "Application"/etc. for 64-bit items and "Application (32-bit)"/etc. for 32-bit items. The "(32-bit)" part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    In 10.8, the file info window’s “Kind:” read “Application”/etc. for 64-bit items and “Application (32-bit)”/etc. for 32-bit items.
    The “(32-bit)” part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    1. Launch System Information into its 'report' mode. (A quick way to do this is by holding down the option key while clicking on the Apple menu item, which causes "About this Mac" to change to that.)
    2. From the list on the left, under "Software" click on "Applications." (If you don't see the Applications item, click on "Show more information" from the "File" menu.)
    3. Wait a minute or so for the report to finish.
    4. The last column in the report is "64-bit (Intel)." (You may need to scroll the window to the right to see it.) Click on that heading to sort the list alphabetically. Anything with a "no" is 32 bit.

  • Couldn't read from socket error: Is this a bug in Java?

    I have been facing this grave problem for a long time now. After establishing a socket connection with some server:port say 207.123.17.20:1865, I get this error "Couldn't read from socket" as an IOException. I can neither read or send any packets to the server after receiving this error. On checking whether the socket connection is alive or not, I print socket.getAddress() and it returns me the ip of the server to which it is connected. The specification says that receiving this error means the socket was closed by the server. If it so then how I am able to print the server address after receiving this error? How can I get around this problem? Plz. help...

    watertownjordan said:
    If your computer (client) killed the connection, it should throw an error >pointing to the OS closing the connection. but what if my client app cntrl alt del while the server is waiting to here from the client.
    my client may sit idle for hours and then contact again. i want to keep their socket connected but if they cntrl alt del then i want to close the socket so the thread on the server side can be exited.
    the way i solved this was to send an "i'm still here" message to the serv in a timer every 10 seconds and set the time out on the server side to 30 seconds.
    i used a syncronized boolean variable like so:
        volatile private boolean out1busy = false;
        private synchronized boolean getOut1busy(){
         return out1busy;
        private synchronized void setOut1busy(boolean on){
         out1busy = on;
        }then in the timer i do this
            while (getOut1busy()) try { Thread.sleep(40); } catch (InterruptedException ex) {}
            setOut1busy(true);
            lobbyOut.println("-1");
            setOut1busy(false);it seems to work fine but the loop using the thread.sleep does not seem right and i know very little about this all.
    i'm basically asking the same thing as Chintan.Kanal
    Is there any way I can test whether the socket connection is alive from the server side?
    does my approach above have flaws.
    again it seems to work but i am not very Java savy lol.

  • Are plugins able to create graphical controls children to the Acrobat/Reader application?

    Hello,
    in the documentation I read 
      Acrobat Viewer layer 
    The Acrobat Viewer (AV) layer enables plug-ins to control Acrobat and modify its user interface. Using AV methods, you can, for example, add menus and menu commands, add buttons to toolbars, open and close files, display simple dialog boxes, and perform many other application-level tasks.
    I ask if it is possible that a plugin creates a graphical control like others applications can usually do and put it as a legitimate child of the Acrobat/Reader application, for example over a pdf page, and get events and so on.
    Thanks in advance

    Sure.

  • My Reader application on Mac crashes as soon as I connect my PRS-T1 to the USB.

    As soon I connect my PRS-T1 into USB and the Reader program starts syncing the Reader application (on my MAC) crashes. It happens every time, and I cannot sync books or anything.
    I have updated the reader and reinstalled my reader application on my mac and the PRS-t1 is running the latest firmware.

    Hi jaglaser,
    Perform the following troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.
    Disconnect the Reader Digital Book from the computer and close the Reader software. Once disconnected, remove any memory cards you may have installed in your Reader.
    Reconnect the reader and test it for proper functionality. If you are still having the problem, continue to the next step.
    Disconnect the Reader Digital Book from the computer and format the Internal Memory of Reader Digital Book.
    If the problem still happens, turn off your Reader digital book and do a Hard Reset (https://us.en.kb.sony.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/31628/c/65%2C66/kw/31628). After doing a Hard Reset, it will be necessary to authorize your unit again.
    If possible, install the Reader software on another computer to test.
    If my post answers your question, please mark it as an "Accepted Solution."

  • Console logs: Couldn't read user-specified computer name

    Last night I was experiencing frozen apps, was unable to open web pages and could not open the Apple menu to Restart computer. Somehow I eventually managed to Restart and everything seemed OK.
    When I checked in Console logs tonight, I saw this message:
    Couldn't read user-specified Computer name; using default using default "Macintosh 00145112d484. local instead"
    I found BDAqua"s reply to a similar problem dated 4/14/08 - "Try editing it in both places in Sharing Pref pane." However, I could not find what I exactly had to edit!
    I would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks.

    Hi there,
    However, I could not find what I exactly had to edit!

    Then click on the edit button to verify, it'll have the .local after it here.

  • One way sync from Outlook Express gets Unable to read application data error

    I have a BB Flip, 8220, and am trying to use Outlook Express as my Contacts organizer.  I have started Outlook express "vanilla" and only have one records in Outlook Express.  I have 34 records in my BB Contacts.  When I run synchronize (and again, I am trying to do this one way, from Express to BB) I get the error "Unable to read application data", "Processing Device Address Book", "Record 34 of 34 Records".
    I have read many of the threads.  I have checked the RIM.log file and it says one way sync.  Any clues on how to fix this?  I am on Desktop 4.6, do I need to upgrade to 4.7?
    Please advise.
    Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well I fixed the problem.  What I did was run a Backup using the desktop mgr software, I then ran a restore, but I used the Advanced option so that I could open the ipd backup file and then select just the contacts database and push that from my computer to the device (using the right arrow copy button in the middle of the Advanced window thingy).  I then reran the Sync and it WORKED!
    Doing the backup and restore must have fixed the corrupted record on my phone.  Wonderful.  I was nervous, but it worked jst fine.

  • Deleting old Adobe Reader applications...

    I have downloaded the newest Adobe Reader application but still show multiple older versions of Adobe Reader(7.08 & 8) in my Applications folder.
    Can I delete and trash these without losing some necessary files to run the 9 version only...?
    I also run Classic 9 OS occasionally for older applications and in that Application folder there is an Acrobat Reader 5.0 which I don't know if I need to have or if I can update it to a newer version that would work with Classic 9.

    I would say to play it safe you might want to delete the Acrobat files (maybe archive them just to be safe) before doing your upgrade. I don't know but it is possible the Acrobat Reader installer may have an uninstall button. Programs like Acrobat and Office like to put files all over the place so if you really want to make sure all the old is gone you would need to do a lot of manual weeding. However, it is slightly possible that when you run the installer it might ask if you want to get rid of earlier versions. Try running the installer part way and see what options it offers. Usually you can cancel before installing if you decide you need to do something before installing.
    Now, there's OS9 and there's Classic. OS9 is when you boot to OS9 and OS9 is totally in control. When you boot to OSX and run Classic, it is OSX that is really in control and it is pretending (emulating) OS9 +at the same time+. If you start a program written for OSX while in Classic it will just start the program in OSX. If you actually boot to OS9 then it is extremely unlikely it will run the OSX version. There were some programs written around the transition period that would run on both, but I doubt any recent release would. The bottom line is, if all you do is run Classic then you could also get rid of your version 5 too.
