  Start with some basic troubleshooting.

  Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

  If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

  When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

  

  If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

• Windows Firefox will not close.

  Hello
  I am running windows 8.1 and Firefox 38.0.1. whenever I click on the Red 'x' to close Firefox, Firefox will not close. If I want to close all tabs, Firefox does not close the last tab. If I try to merge windows (by dragging the tab of a window in a different window) Firefox will create a blank tab on the window where I dragged the dragged tab. So far, the only way to close the Fire Fox is click on the close button or to stop by the Task Manager. When I re - open Firefox Windows and previous tabs are also there, and I'm still not able to close them. I restarted my PC and reinstalled Firefox (uninstalled and re-download). However, after downloading Firefox... the same windows will be opened, with the same tabs! It's horrible!

• The computer date went before a day, switched back and now Firefox will not record history.

  Hey guys! My brothers and sisters have decided to play a trick on me and changed my computer to the front of a week time (panic ensued). I changed it to the current date, 07/30/2104 21:18 (at time of writing), and now Firefox will not trace of my story. Just one day, I changed the time on the computer to the front and then Firefox will begin to record history. Changed, there again at the present time and also return one day and it will not save. Story work for Google Chrome and Internet Explorer.

  TL:Dr - Firefox became the TARDIS and stepped forward in time to save the history.

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

• InDesign CS6 will not retain any preferences

  One of my users has been recently updated for CS5 Design and Web Premium CS6.  The first problem is that the InDesign program crashes from time to time for no apparent reason.  Second, the InDesign program will not retain the preferences.  If the program crashes and is restarted, the preferences are lost.  In addition, if the program is normally closed and reopened, preferences are lost.  This started happening about a month ago and before that, there is no problem.

  I have searced forums and the internet for a solution and while I could find similar problems with other users, I can not find a solution.  Re-setting the program did not produce a resolution.  If anyone can help with this frustrating problem.

  Lisa, all of the experts from Adobe here are useless. They bombard you with questions, and theories.  I am a computer scientist of operations who was responsible for resolving problems and issues of the software. I have do this usually by the process of elimination.  Most of these people is applications users who call the IT operations people to solve their problems, when this stuff happens.

  Here's what I did to fix the problem.  I saved all the users of windows profile settings to a different folder.  Then I deleted the windows end-user user profile.  He then recorded in the PC and his profile has been recreated.  He was then able to configure its settings in InDesign.  These preferences and settings are now retained when it disconnects, stops, restarts, etc...

  I know this isn't the best solution, but only slightly.  The key is to make sure you have saved/backed up all data users and their user in windows profile settings.

  Good luck!!!

• I deleted internet explore and now my computer and firefox will not work/really slow. How to fix?

  I thought I had a virus on my Internet explore and the tech in the street guy told me to download firefox and remove internet Explorer. When I did it, firefox will not load but shows up in my task manager everytime I try to open it. My computer is very slow now and firefox does not open...

  Sometimes my computer is running slow also. If Firefox will do it, see if you can download internet explorer from there, but as you said that it was slow, it might take some time.

• Firefox will not hold, but shows in the Task Manager, after updating graphics drivers from AMD 13.1.

  Hello

  After update for drivers AMD 13.1 on my 5770, Firefox will not launch; It doesn't, however, appears in the Task Manager. I want to emphasize that it will boot into Windows safe mode; When I opened it in safe mode, I used this time to deactivate all plugins, modules, extensions and created a new profile. This did not help. I also tried launching Firefox in its safe mode and had no luck with that either.

  I encountered this problem once before, when trying to upgrade to an earlier version. I think I was moving from 12.1 to 12.4, but I'm not 100% sure of that. In the end, my solution was then to retrograde back to my previous driver. The steps mentioned in the previous paragraph has not helped at that time, not do a complete reinstall.

  experience of 15 years, and that computer repair baffled me.

  Thanks to all those who might be able to help.

  Eventually the relevant specifications.
  Windows 7 Ultimate x 64
  AMD Phenom II x 4
  Ram 6BG
  Chart AMD 5770, running catalyst 13.1
