I can't follow the instructions because popup says Firefox already running; CLOSE button used to work, but does not work today.

Sometimes when I open Firefox I get a box (must not have used the word POPUP - she distracted the search function)-in any case, a box saying Firefox is already running, and I click the button CLOSE FIREFOX and everything is fine but now CLOSE FIREFOX refuses to close firefox.

    I need to know how to remove the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded tonight and my computer does not have this edit bar little to work with, so I can download the reader good Adobe and my internet was screwed up, since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I want just the old version of this back because I can't download the Adobe stuff which is necessary to protect my computer against hackers apparently not. It would have been nice to know he had a problem with the new update of Firefox BEFORE I downloaded it. I have Vista, which is usually a problem with Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run a lot of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.

  • How can I fix the "drag and drop" feature in Windows 7? It used to work, but now does not work, for no apparent reason!

    How can I fix the "drag and drop" feature in Windows 7?  It used to work, but now does not work, for no apparent reason!

    What happens when you try?  Make sure you drag the icon image and not the text of the name.

    If it still doesn't work there are some registry changes that can try to alleviate the problem.  But because the changes to the registry are tedious and dangerous, I recommend to leave the system to repair it for you.  Here's how:
    1. Type of restore in the search box of the start menu to find and open to restore system files and settings from a restore point.
    2. Click Next, choose a date before the problem started, then click Next once more.
    • This process only takes around 2 minutes and only restores your system files/settings: it will not affect any of your files, documents, photos, emails, or anything else.
    If the system restore does not resolve the problem try this to replace missing or corrupted system files.  Here's how:
    1. Type cmd into the start menu search box, and then press Ctrl-Shift-Enter to launch as administrator.
    2. At the command prompt to start the File System Check, type sfc/scannow .

  • I use 'always use private mode', but does not work brwosing private by the window

    Using Firefox 42, did the restore thing and also tried the private tab addon. Nothing helps. I want to use it always use the option of private, however, mode 'new window' or 'private window' gives me a window where all of my connections are always active. I need to close Firefox and restart it to clean. Work on different windows independent one from the other is not possible, what is the opposite of what I'm trying to achieve. But I accept no cookies in the settings, anyway I don't think they should be available in a new private window. Any help? In fact, it smells very buggy for me.

    In Firefox, use always discreet mode means that nothing is recorded, as
    history, cookies and so on. Your login status is saved in a special cookie.

    Type of topic: preferences #privacy< enter > in the address bar.

    The button next to history, select use custom settings.

    At the bottom of the page, turn clear history when Firefox closes.
    At the extreme right, press the settings button. Activate the active connections

    Firefox changes the resolution reported to websites based on your zoom level. Could you try to reduce your zoom a notch (hold down the CTRL key and press the key) to see if that makes a difference? When you reload the page Yahoo, use Crl + shift + r to force a full reload and ignore all updated files cached.

  • Firefox hangs at startup, or starts a process but does not open the browser.

    In the last few days, Firefox has had many problems.

    When I open it, the window hangs and crashes after a few seconds, if it opens at all. Other times, trying to open Firefox simply won't open the window, but will leave an additional process running in the background that I have to manually shut down via the Task Manager.

    I did a fresh profile. I restarted Firefox. Already got hardware acceleration checked and disabled. still having the same problem. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox several times. I ran a scan of my system with Malwarebytes; nothing detected. It is not even a newspaper of the accident. I looked through the support forums, found people with problems similar to mine, but no solution posted for them for some time last month.

    Firefox seems to operate normally if a version 21 installation, which opens toward the top of the browser window. Everything works fine, until I got close the browser and then reopen it.

    Just out of curiosity, this behavior (suspended the launch after a Windows Update) would be a registry problem? If so how could we check?

    Hmm. I think it's nice that my post is a chosen Solution. Now, if someone could just tell me what is the solution... :))

  • I have the latest version of firefox and I tried to follow the instructions for cookies, only statements seems obsolete. How can I fix it?

    I have to adjust my cookies and I found the instructions on your site. When I followed the instructions, I found that it seems to an older version and not the new. The privacy settings are not the same because they were once and I can't make changes to cookies may except to remove them.

    What I could do, it was to go to the "Firefox" tab in the upper left corner, go to history, clear recent history and so on. I can't make changes to a single cookie. It's all or nothing.

    Are there any other ways for me to make the adjustments?
    

    I had and tried to suggest what you say, and it has only caused more problems.

    In addition, by clicking on the Firefox button orange > Options, it is not life private, click. Also, I'm supposed to go to ' advanced after Panel go to Options and that too is not available for me to choose. I think that these options would help me with what I'm looking for is that they have implemented the way they used to be. The instructions that the technical team or whoever is responsible for updates of Firefox, is not only a user can follow.

    My iPhone 4 stopped working yesterday, it frustrated me because I just a call, I intended to take it to get it fixed, but my sister advised I check the support of the community and guess what? It worked! Am so excited, I followed the instructions of the Mac, I pressed the Start button and the button operation at the same time and the magic took place, am so so excited. THANK YOU MAC!

    Glad that your phone is working again.

    What you were doing by pressing the button home and sleep for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo came back, is called "force restart '.

    You won't lose data by doing this, but it can cure a few glitches. It is usually the last thing to try before you restore the phone to factory again or visit an Apple Retail Store or Apple authorized service provider, where your phone does not at all.

  • Ridiculous... unable to perform acorobat drive after having tried to update, following the instructions to uninstall, change browsers, etc. etc. Spent all morning and still can not installed so I have no way to open all the previous documents acrobat!

    I did everything that was asked to update my acrobat reader, who showed on my computer. When I couldn't do in a first time, I followed the instructions, save it to run first to change browsers, etc. etc. I uninstalled my control panel of my acrobat reader program and NOW I can't open any pdf course or install little matter what I do, and how many times I repeat and change according to their instructions. I'm more than embarrassed because I spent the last 4 hours trying to install it and update or reinstall, etc, etc and I have it in my past as a career. It's a known issue, bug, of course, if someone needs to contact me to Adobe and let me know what they will do about it.

    Please help because I know what is happening in the world and I know that Adobe must have a solution outside everything what they propose that do not work.

    Thank you to all those who have different ideas of what is happening on the websites of ADOBE
