I don't have the desktop, no start menu item icons and taskbar shows hourglass after you start. Can't do anything except in safe mode. Help!
I have a dell Inspiron with windows xp. When I started the computer this morning, I pass the windows startup screen and then just get an empty office and no start menu icons. The taskbar are also disabled in me showing only an hourglass.
Thank you for your reply Syed. Since I posted the request, I took my machine an outlet Center supported local PC and he was diagnosed with a faulty hard drive. So, I now have a new hard drive prescription (and a couple of days of work re - install everything to hope).

I saw a previous question to a windows user, but it seemed that he was very long (speaking of the 3.x.x editions), and all links on this thread seemed to have only 3 updates. I just want to stay with the version of Firefox before this last update (30/10/12) who say 16.0.2 work well with my older Mac OSX. Can you provide me with a link to reinstall and forgive my ignorance, but let me know exactly what I have to do to avoid losing preferences and bookmarks and others? Thank you very much.
All versions of Firefox 16 still work with your operating system OS X 10.5, but this is the last version that works.
Firefox 17 will require OS X 10.6 and later.Here you can see the 17 Firefox (currently in beta) system requirements:

I think I'm done inadvertently the Explorer.exe process when trying to figure out which bogged down my laptop. I have now no start menu, no desktop icons, no task bar... nothing! The paper just painted. When I right click on the wallpaper I get nothing. I have no idea how to get that back. If I had not left my email up, I wouldn't even be able to access the internet!
Hello.
You should be able to press Ctrl + SHIFT + ESC to open the Task Manager.
From there, click on file > new task (run...), then type "explorer.exe" in the dialog box and click on enter.
Of course, should explore back upward during restart as well. -

I currently have Firefox 9.0. Why the start page for firefox keep telling me that I don't have the latest version?
You may need the old start page. Go to Firefox > Options and in the pane general, under Startup, click on restore by default. The page you have probably (http://google.com/firefox) only served to 3.6 (and tells you you are outdated), but some users seem to have gotten stuck on it after updating to Firefox 4 or upper version.

Hello
I have a Curve 8310 running v4.2.163
I am a Mac user and do not have the desktop software.
Yesterday I dropped my phone and the battery jumped, after replacement, BBM icon disappeared and could not be found, most of the posts I've seen says to reinstall the BBM Office but isn't an option for me.
Please help, I feel naked without BBM
Welcome to the forums of liliane
I propose two options for you:
1 find a friend with a PC and install the Desktop Manager, load BBM from there
2. go to the store of your operator and they can do it for you
I think www.blackberry.com/messenger from your phone can also allow you to load it, but I think it can only be for BBM 4.0 and 4.1.

After installation of the latest version of firefox and I use the new icon on my desktop, it always says that I don't have the latest version. Installation will correctly
It - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Page to start Firefox used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I do not think that it is maintained by Google.
From version Firefox 4, Firefox uses a 'local' with the address Start Page of Subject: House. It looks like the old start Page, but this isn't exactly the same thing.
