Firefox will not open at all, after the last update (13.08.2015).

After the update (40.0.2 @ 13.08.2015) just used Firefox open. The process is visible in the Task Manager, but does nothing. no window. JUST. NOTHING. It works only in safe mode or when ran as administrator. I tried other computers from home too. Same thing.

How to fix?

Try a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

  • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

  • CC of Photoshop (2015) now closes to the boot after the last update (December 15, 2015)

    After the last update (December 15, 2015) to Photoshop CC (2015), at startup, the little splash screen comes up for a few seconds, then closes.  Photoshop just never came up, and there is no error message from Windows (8.1, fully patched) or Ps.  I look at startup in the Task Manager, I see Photoshop.exe come during these few seconds, then disappear.  While the splash screen is in place, and briefly showing the msgs little progress, happens to one that says "shared components... Initializing." "whereupn it closes.  Everything was working fine yesterday (before the update), and the update process actually all went well for a change, with no error message it is.  The platform is a Toshiba Qosmio laptop, and as far as I see it, there is no update for the graphics drivers, etc.  All other programs (including Ps CS6) work very well.  Suggestions?

    Hi kimmersly,

    Greetings.

    • Right-click on the icon and click on run as administrator, see if it works
    • If it does not, then try reinstalling PS CC 2015
    • Restart the computer, and then check again.

  • Firefox does not open a link after the first; Open ok in new tab front.

    In the last week or two, for reasons not clear to me, Firefox does not open the new links after the first; It is used to open a new connection in new tabs (according to my preference) without problems in the past. Now it does not blink again.

    Over time, I've added new applications and others removed, and, of course, I can't exclude from their role in the problem that I have now. I would appreciate some help to solve this problem.

    You have this problem when running in Firefox SafeMode?

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    I tried to open it with another Windows user.

    I used the creative cloud cleaning tool.

    I deleted all the files of preference (including cache)

    I just reinstalled it again and again, nothing.

    All I get is a Windows notification that there is a problem with the program and Windows to send a crash report.

    Help, please!

    CC programs works except InDesign.

  • Can not load my iPhone after the last update

    Just downloaded latest updates on iPhone 5 and now the phone will not load... someone else live the same.

    I checked all connections and the son... all good.

    Hello Linda,.

    It seems that your phone does not load at the moment. I would use this section of the following article to help you solve this problem:

    Recharge your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    If your device doesn't load or loads slowly

    If you have very low battery and you plug in the power, a black screen or with a red battery may appear for a few minutes. Charge your device for half an hour. If it still doesn't load, follow these steps:

    1. Remove all debris from the charge on the bottom of your device socket, then firmly plug your cable to charge your device. If the port of loading is damaged, your device probably need service.
    2. To a power outlet wall, search for closed connections between your charge cable, USB adapter and outlet or try another outlet. For a computer, verify that it is not in mode 'sleep', then try every USB port on the computer.
    3. Restart your iOS device. If your device does not illuminate or still does not, know what to do.

    * If you are not sure if an accessory is damaged, take it to an Apple Store or the provider of services authorized Apple for evaluation or Contact the Apple Support.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  • Why Firefox will not open a form on the existing web page

    Using Firefox, I go to a web page, and on it, there is a button to click for a contest entry. By clicking on the button should open a form (not a new web page) to fill. Nothing happens. It worked for me in the past, I entered this contest everyday until last Friday (11/22). Saturday (11/23), it wouldn't work.

    I contacted the website and they claim that everything is working well and they tried it on multiple web browsers, with no problems - it works correctly.

    I tried on several browsers, with the same result - no form to complete.

    The sounds that you block or JavaScript $('.col').addClass ('phase2'); to enter the phase2 or there is a problem with the CSS that would make this visible form once you have clicked on the button to enter the phase2.

    It's weird that it happens in other browsers as well, and that startup the computer Safe Mode has no effect.

    You can try to reset (power off / on) of the router.

    You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

    Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from this area you don't want to lose so take note of these passwords and bookmarks.

    You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

    It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

    Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.

    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

    I have a Mac on OS X El Capitan - the laptop and CS6 has been provided by the services of disability United Kingdom studying for my studies (I don't have a disc only my password code because that's the way they provide the software). I bought a subscription to the CC but couldn't afford it for another year so cancelled. Now, I can't open my CS6 as it happens with the CC renew screen. I tried to uninstall CC using the uninstall program on my computer but it won't let me. I am an artist with a large number of Bill and I can't access photoshop or first, or one of my Adobe software and I get extremely worried and anxious, and because of my disability I can not do it somewhere else. Can any member of staff or people smart tech out there advise me please?

    Hi all

    We published a new version of Adobe Bridge (CC 2015) on July 19, 2016. This update is available via the Adobe Creative Cloud application.

    We addressed some crash bridge issues experienced on the launch of the application. Please try the new version and are looking for the crash problems you encountered.

    If you are not able to locate the bridge (CC 2015) on the creative cloud application, you will need to update the creative cloud application and restart your computer.
