Firefox application starts IE instead, cannot open Firefox anyway! Reinstalling does not work.

Today I was browsing webistes of ordinary wallpaper and suddenly my Firefox is crushed, and IE open to its home page. After that, in every way I tried to run Firefox, I had IE open instead. I did a full virus scan, obtained of the Trojans is wiped out, but the problem continues. Tried to restart and finally reinstall FF, but none of it worked. Never seen anything like this, someone knows how to fix this?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your awnser!

That's the strange thing, FF has been installed and configured as the default Internet browser. Later, I downloaded Chrome and had the same problem. The solution I found was to restore my system to an earlier date, I think maybe a virus, who knows... But I got it working now!

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

  • Firefox address bar does not work

    I recently updated my software Kaspersky of Kaspersky Internet Security Kaspersky Total security, 2015 at around the time that Firefox automatically updated from version 35 to 36. I don't know if the update of Kaspersky has nothing to do with the problem, but now the Firefox address bar does not work. I've 'come down' Firefox to version 35, but it still does not work.

    You can add a URL in a window of the Firefox window (Firefox or Google) search engine, and that works, like clicking on the hyperlinks that appear. But the address bar is totally dead! The address in my browser Google toolbar also works OK

    I hope that someone familiar with the operation of Firefox knows how to solve this frustrating problem as I prefer Firefox Google.

    Thanks for the help.

  • CD drive does not open and the light does not work

    original title: single CD player problem

    The problem with my CD player seems to be unique I can't find an answer, or someone else with the same problem online.

    My computer is custom built, the CD player lasted me 1.5 years no problem, not until one day I realize, it does not open and the light does not work on it, I ordered a new drive and installed that one, still does not work. so, I replaced the SATA cable which connects to the motherboard, still does not.

    When I go to my computer the drive appears but when I right click > eject it says: "year error occurred while ejecting CD drive D".  It also appears in devices such as SCSI CdRom Device Manager but I am not sure if it's actually my CD player.

    I also tried troubleshooting http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cd_dvd_drive_problems and no solution.

    WTFFF ideas? I really hope that its not the motherboard

    There are two cables you need to connect to the drive, one for data and one for power.  You must connect both training at work.  If you only have the data cable is plugged and not cable power which would be a possible cause of the problem that you see.

    "Ryanb1290" wrote in the new message: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy... *

    Sorry, im just of knowledge about computer hardware.  you say that I should try a different agreement or another port to plug in?

    I tried to connect on a couple different SATA ports on the motherboard.

    I use CS4. Can I open files CS6? I get 'not available on your system plug-ins' messages and I would like to open anyway, but does not work by clicking OK.

    InDesign CS4 can open the .indd files, .indt and .inx from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open files saved or exported to more recent versions, .idml being understood than non support for features will be lost, text will likely reflow due to differences in the engines of texts between versions and more the gap between versions more likely, there must be significant differences from the original. You need to be sure that CS4 is at version 7.0.6 read the .idml.

  • 29,0 Firefox, print 'selection' does not work.

    When I select a section of a page, then use the "print" button, the 'selection' print option does not work. It is not highlighted in the print menu.

    The button "print" 'action' in Firefox 29 differs from earlier versions. Now, he opens preview print rather than going directly to the box of "native print dialog. That breaks the ability to print a 'selection '.

    My advice is to highlight the selection , then use {Ctrl + P} to start printing until Mozilla fixes the action of the "print" button in a newer version of Firefox.

  • The firefox search bar does not work and when trying to manage search firefox engine crashes and I have to force to leave.

    My search bar does not work. I can enter text and the work of AutoFill, but when I hit enter or click the magnifying glass, nothing happens. (The address bar works). I can't change the search engine of google for other engines by default, but they are looking for either. When I open "Manage search engines" menu opens and I can make changes, but then he won't and I leave firefox to get the strength to normal navigation. It drives me crazy, please help! I tried to restart the search engine, my computer, changed such parameters suggested by other pages, but nothing helped. (Safari search bar works, but I don't use Safari, so I would really like to understand how to solve this problem).

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    Is two weeks.

    I had this same problem. Couldn't Google to search in weeks bar. Drove me crazy.

    Does what you has proposed and made a new profile, but simply copied to a file or folder at a time in the new profile in the Finder and started the profile to test to see if it worked or not for Google.

    It came down to formhistory.sqlite. The second I put that in Trial, the Google bar stopped working. Found out it just saves your form history and past Google searches, so I'm ok with starting over on that. I'll just have to enter my address one more time on the next form I fill out.
    

    I tried just compensation history form and search in Firefox, but that does not solve, so I went ahead and made another new profile and replaced the formhistory.sqlite from this profile file my trial period. It worked, then I did the same thing with 'default '.

    Problem. Solved.

  • How can I put Firefox 10.0.2 to be the default browser in Windows 7, using a script or program Setup. "Firefox.exe - setDefaultBrowser" does NOT work.

    I want to set Firefox as the default browser for all my users.

    I can do this by opening Firefox and go to tools-> Options-> advanced and click on the "Check now" button That works fine, but I need to do this automatically.

    Installation running with the switch - setDefaultBrowser does NOT work. Running "firefox.exe - silent - SetDefaultBrowser" after installation does NOT work.
    Is it still possible? Or are we stuck with IE?

    After the reinstallation of the computer, it seems to work now. Must have been some sort of bug.
    Thank you for your help.

  • My 8 Firefox Menu button does not work and neither does the right click in the window of firefox

    It seems that all drop-down buttons in the browser, including the bookmarks dropdown in the toolbar and the main menu button (firefox), no longer work. This happened after that I upgraded to firefox 8. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times all also the removal of the preferences user and all that but that does not work. But everything seems to work properly in safe mode. So I disabled all my addons in the normal mode, but cela still does not resolve the problem. My right click does not anywhere in the browser window either. And also, although the menus are not displayed, it seems that they are still there because if I click in the area that a the function button active, that's how I was able to disable addons.

    Safe mode disables extensions in Firefox 4 and later versions, and disables hardware acceleration.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    If disable hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

    Yesterday the + tab opens a new tab when you click it. Today, it doesn't. New tab file does not work either. I use OS X El Capitan. I really want to use FireFox as my browser - it's much faster than Chrome. But I'm not going to open a new window every time I want to start something new.

    Continue the behavior mode without failure of Firefox? https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/troubleshoot-Firefox-issues-using-safe-mode

    If Yes, then we can rule out assorted settings, Extensions and themes. Next step is probably malware analyses, but I don't know what scanners are good for Mac OS.

    If not, then it is time to start weeding the themes and Extensions 1 by 1 until the culprit is found.
