[7.0] Firefox still really exist?

I had my running version of Firefox (v6.0.2) set up in the preferences is to update automatically when an update became available (but so he can ask me what I want to do before you install), and 1/2 hour ago when I opened Firefox It prompted me that the version (7.0) last was available and it is strongly recommended that I have install this update , so I clicked on [install now] and I got the installation window and it didn't really start to download the update. Instead, he shouwed the classic thing 'barber shop pole in motion"on the progress indicator and has never advanced to the download. I'll try closing and re-opening Firefox, and if that doesn't work, I'll try [Pref Cleaner] and reset the settings of file type on my MacBook using [Xupport].
Sincerely,
------/ Steve 1.1

Happy that it worked then, thanks for posting back

  • Error, says that Firefox still works little matter what I try

    I looked around a bunch of articles help and discussions, and so far I can't get Firefox to quit to show me this error.

    I get every so often, not every time. I can't identify any consistent factor that would entail. So far I tried a new install (I deleted all FIrefox to my hard drive before reinstalling), ending the process, check the rights to default folder and delete the parent.lock file. Even after all these things, it always gives me error from time to time, maybe one out of every three times that I try to start.

    This isn't a huge problem of internet break, but it's still really frustrating. Is there anything else I can try?

    Thank you!

    A reported possible cause use 'Clear history of Firefox closing' to clear the browsing history, so if you use this and then try to exclude from the history.

  • At startup, Firefox still displays my windows and labels last time, even though I have selected the option to view my homepage.

    Question: Although my option is to show my home page at startup, Firefox still displays my my windows and tabs from last time.

    More details:
    I use Microsoft Surface Pro 3 with Windows Pro 10 and Firefox v 40.0.2
    I chose option to start Firefox to display my home page. Please see attached screenshot. The homepage is the Mozilla Firefox Start Page. However I tried other sites such as www.cognizant.com, www.cnn.com.

    I also tried to start by selecting a blank page. Always on starting Firefox displays the windows and tabs from last time.

    I also deleted the (renamed) prefs.js file and restarted firefox. This step NOT solved this problem.

    Help, please. Thank you

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

    The user.js file will be present if you or a other software created this file and normally will not present.

    You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them .html and .ini and .js and .txt, and you can see only a file name without file extension.
    You can check the file extension (type) in the file properties in Windows Explorer via the context menu.

    Hey Pacovilla,.

    Do you by chance have the LastPass Manager as an add-on of Firefox?
    (You can click the icon settings at the top right and choose Add ons).

    If you do, try to disable it, or from Firefox with no Add-ons to see if it works.

    This add-on seems to cause problems with Facebook on Firefox.

  • How di get rid of A.adsmktng of firefox? uninstalled/reinstalled firefox - still here. Do not have if I launch IE 8

    I started making all kinds of popups wgich seem to A.adsmktng com. I did a boot scan with Avast who can't find any puppies, but was still. Ran A search for the string "A.adsmkt", which turned out in firefox.exe. I refreshed Firefox - the chain was still, but in the OLD FIREFOX/firefox.exe and 3 other files in OLD FIREFOX / but still had. Since I have IE8, but never use it, I uninstalled and then reinstalled Firefox (disturbing thing is that Bookmatks remained). Ran to new firefox and its still there - I typed the address rather than using bookmarks which Im very suspiciouis, because I expected to be deleted during uninstallation.
    If I run IE8 I have no problem and have actually visited a few sites that have pop ups if I leave here with Firefox but with IE8, I get a page "clean." The problem is in Firefox, so how do I get rid of this coz I don't really want to not use IE8 - I'd still far rather with Firefox

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one. Windows 8 already has integrated antivirus.

    More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

  • Firefox is really slow to open the first tab, after that I can open as many tabs as I want to instantly. Why won't the first tab open instantly?

    Tried to reinstall firefox, no anti-virus program, updating, actually I have no program, no plugins, no extension. Firefox has added to the windows firewall that is allowed to pass from the list (which I never did with my vista machine) computer brand new i5 quad core 3.6 khz with windows 8.1 all drivers are up to date. He did take 2 weeks to get 8.1 windows finally installed without locking up and having to reinstall for the 15th time by disabling all Microsoft built in spyware. She was semi stable for 2 days now. When I install kaspersky AV, it adds another couple minutes to launch firefox.

    I was really excited about my new suppose to be faster computer but my 10 year old Q6600 2.4khz with vista is way faster and easier to use.  I know I can't be the only one in the world to have this problem.  I've been all over the internet and I see all the problems people are having with windows 8.1. I've got invitation to upgrade to windows 10 but that just locks up the computer again.  Someone, anyone please HELP!
    

    Solved it myself I think. The computer crashed again, so I took it back to return or repair. It turns out that the motherboard Asus has had an intermittent short circuit. Now, firefox opens perhaps a fraction of a second faster than my vista machine. Beautiful, I touch wood. Thanks to Fred for the answer to my problem. Good luck to all and good hike!

  • Container plugin for firefox still plays the audio ads. I'm deleting it and he returned without permission. How can I get rid of him?

    I got it removed from the location of the file several times. The only solution I found is to stop the process in the Task Manager, but it of a pain and should be repeated several times within minutes of each other. How safely get rid of this to always unless it somehow being added again. Thank you

    Hello
    You talked about the process of container Plugin, so I assume you really mean ads Flash. In this case, you need at least a few options to choose from:
    (1) you can uninstall the Adobe Flash plugin . This will get rid of the real plugin, the Plugin container 'contains', but it will most likely be unwanted side effects: you will not be able to play some Flash games, or watch Flash video on Web sites that use them (e.g. Facebook).
    (2) you could install an ad blocking extension in Firefox, like AdBlock Plus. These lots of ad, Flash extensions block not only those, but they can not and do not all ads block. If this is the path you choose, just head to the Addon Manager, enter 'Adblock' in the search field and install extensions referring to research. I do not use one of them myself, so I give my opinion on which of them, you need to install.
    (3) my personal way preferred: Set Adobe Flash "Click to play" on Firefox. This will keep the Flash Plugin on your computer, but will allow you to opt-in to each page to see what the plugin is set to display (you can always allow websites that you want to enable Flash automatically, it just will not be the default behavior for more).
