I've upgraded to Ubuntu 12.10 and firefox no longer works
OK, so I've updated my Ubuntu from 11.10 to 12.10. Now that firefox is not running. All it does is stuff in the first tab. If you open another tab and attempt to leave the tab page, or if you open a link in a new tab it simply refuses to leave the tab page. What happens here? I mean, it worked perfectly in 11.10, what past?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.
See "create a profile":

- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

My last Firefox no longer works and I can't fix it. I use Windows 8. I made the mistake of downloading DuckDuckGo. He immediately took over as my default browser and it would not allow me to change back. I realized that I had something that I had not needed so I tried to remove it. It took a morning full of accomplish this chore. I went back to Firefox and found that my tabs were there, but they were opaque and would not work. In fact, you could read what was beneath them. No way to get anything wthout return to the start page of Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and put it back on and it was always the same thing with the non operation of the opaque tabs. Troops you have good ideas as to how I can get my Firefox working again?

I lived 3 versions of Ubuntu and 2 versions of Firefox with these Linux operating systems. None allow midi play on Web sites. He always lets know me that I need another plugin to be able to read the media on this page. I then click on the "install missing plugins" button and Firefox did a search but said that it is not everything. I hate expensive to return to Windows and Internet Explorer... but I will. Thank you

___________________________________________Chances that someone creates a plugin that plays embedded MIDI are not very high because the MIDI format is not widely used and it is already possible to play these files.
Plugins are third parties and as such is not part of Firefox and always need to be created by others as extensions. -
Updated my 6 s more to iOS 9.3.1 and bluetooth no longer works on all devices.
After the upgrade, my bluetooth headset and car of office no longer work. Is no longer working, I mean by that is a horrible connection combined with an intermittent audio muting. Get back to 9.3 and see if that helps. Anyone else having the same problem?
Have you ever tried to force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again?
You won't lose data, but it can cure some problems after installing new software.
If this does not work, and where you live updated, try to set it back to the factory settings and of restoring the last backup again:

28 Firefox no longer works with Gmail and Google Search
Using Firefox 28 and after a few minutes, that Gmail doesn't work anymore and Google search is just like his work for about 30 seconds and then does nothing. The problem that happened some time but seems to be worse again last week or both. I read the old thread on this topic and nothing seems to work. A solution has been found for this problem? I can't be restarted my browser every 3 minutes while he was working on a research paper!
I use Firefox for many years, but I need my e-mail access and will use another browser if I have to.
Well, clear cookies and cache again and again does not work.
In addition, Firefox stops working with many sites now and I'm tired of this close every 3 minutes. So, this morning, my solution was to import my bookmarks in Google Chrome and it worked. After using Firefox for many, many years, I now have to use Google Chrome.

I thought I had a virus on my Internet explore and the tech in the street guy told me to download firefox and remove internet Explorer. When I did it, firefox will not load but shows up in my task manager everytime I try to open it. My computer is very slow now and firefox does not open...
Sometimes my computer is running slow also. If Firefox will do it, see if you can download internet explorer from there, but as you said that it was slow, it might take some time.
