GChat no longer works on my Mozilla Firefox browser, but works on Chrome...
I read the response from Chris Ilias another question similar to mine and we tried the solutions provided on this thread. Clear the cookies/cache, restart firefox in safe mode with disabled... modules etc. I have not been able to solve this problem and have inserted my firefox details my Clipboard below. Only other thing I can think is the removal of Firefox and re - install, but then I would lose my favorites, right?

Why you use such an old version of Firefox? Upgrade to at least 28 could solve the problem where you have heard of the Interface of Firefox 29 new and do not want to. This link will be 29.0.1, but if you want 28, it can be downloaded via the link install an older version of Firefox .
Please try to update at least 28 Firefox before you continue troubleshooting. Symantec extensions are known to be very problematic. Please try to delete it as it is not necessary to run Norton.
In regards to your bookmarks, no, uninstall and reinstall Firefox will not solve the issue and it will not delete your bookmarks unless you specify that you want to delete. There is a checkbox indicating "Delete my personal data" and is disabled by default.

I recently installed Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 11 - 11.4.402.265 and when I open my Mozilla Firefox browser I get this message flashing on my screen: "Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working" and then "Windows is checking for a solution"
It flashes several times then stops usually but not always.
It happens every time I try to open a new page.
I solved this problem by uninstalling Adobe Flash Player 11 and install Adobe Flash Player 10.3. However, now my IE browser again wants me to install Adobe Flash Player 11. Although I do not often use my IE browser, I DON'T have to use sometimes. Is there a Firefox 15.0 update to fix this problem?
First of all, the Flash of the IE is totally different than the flash used in Firefox. You can update one without affecting the other.
Now, there is a problem right now with Flash 11.3 and 11.4 in Firefox. Downgraded to 10.3 is an acceptable solution for the moment. Adobe publishes the updates (slowly) that solve the problems, but it is not a matter of time before they are all fixed.
Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - avoid that it happen
11.3 Flash does not load video in Firefox

CSS position: fixed works on mozilla 21/IE10, but not in chrome?
Hello guys,.
I want to post a rectangle or a picture while scrolling browser.
I use sym.$("Rectangle3").css ({'position':"fixed"});})
It works fine in Mozilla and IE10 but not in chrome (Version 27.0.1453.116 m)
Anyone help please?
Thanks in advance.
Anthony
@2adps I think that the question boils down to translateZ (0) which is a known trick to force the GPU acceleration - and uses the same trick as animate
I asked one of our developers and we have found a workaround.
Add to the event compositionReady to the scene:
$("body").append ($("#Stage_rect").css ("position", "fixed"));
Replace "Stage_rect" what is your name of the element. For example, if your name of the element is "Rectangle3"level step in your items Panel, it becomes '#Stage_Rectangle3'. '. You can also get the name of this ID by the Inspector of your browser tools.

What Firefox locale (UI language) do you use?
Try a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.
- Download the installer of Firefox and save the file to the desktop
https://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/all/
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.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
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.
- Download the installer of Firefox and save the file to the desktop

I installed Mozilla Firefox 4, but it is similar to the previous Mozilla Firefox.
Yesterday, I installed Mozilla Firefox 4.0.1 but whenever I use Firefox, it seems always the same as he did.
The new interface is the default on Windows Vista and Windows 7 only. To get it under Windows XP, you must hide the menu bar. Do, in the view menu, select Toolbars, then click on the entrance to the "Menu bar".
If you need to access the menus, you can press Alt or F10 to display temporarily.

reset the firefox browser but when restarted goes to the browser link uk
Everytime I open firefox (or windows Explorer) my browser is exceeded by http://yourtv.link/ I did a full scan on Mcafee and run Windows Defender I uninstalled firefox, and whenever I change the Firefox browser, it returns to http://yourtv.link/ to restart my computer can you suggest a way around this?
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 safety scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more information, see this other AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
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 .

Strange adds on Desktop Mozilla firefox browser

The past two days, I see that my firefox is used for advertising, I don't know who if mozilla itself it ot not, but I see a text many of the double line adds i.e infolinks and popup adds on each site, I opened, even popups on Fb and twitter some time on google.com, all sites work perfectly well on all other browsers on my pc but firefox. Please see if something needs to be done with my system.
Kind regards
This isn't because of Mozilla or any version of Firefox from mozilla.org
