My 3.6.14 keeps trying to update and gives this error message: "the update could not be installed. Please make sure that there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer and restart Firefox to try again. »
My OS is Windows XP service pack 3 version. I even tried to install FF4 but he never settle. As I mentioned my FF continues to try to update, but it gives the error message that I set out in the title. Now I don't have access to my FF browser and my life stopped because I have all my saved passwords on FF. I restarted my laptop but it stills try to update himself giving the same error message. I can not also improved my Adobe reader 7.0.7-10 I tried more than 10 times, but it is never up to date. I had this problem Adobe for a long time.
Run the program Firefox once as an administrator (right click: run as administrator).
If this does not help, then do a clean reinstall.
Do a clean install (re)-:
- Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- http://www.Mozilla.com/Firefox/all.html
- Uninstall your current version of Firefox and remove the Firefox program folder before installing this copy of the Firefox installer.
- Do not erase personal data if you uninstall the current version.
- 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.
Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

Save the installer complete your computer somewhere. Open your
file browser. Go to the folder of the computer program. Search all Mozilla
and Firefox files. Rename them by adding .old to them. Restart
the computer again. Now, try the full installer.Will make cela a try and report.

There was no possibility of not installing the update (in custom installation) as in the installation from the heel, but I went ahead anyway.
This seems to have done the trick.

Windows 7. I am the only user and administrator.
Every time I start Firefox I get the "the update could not be installed. Please make sure that you don't have any other instances of firefox... etc. ".
The Task Manager shows all instances of firefox are closed, processes and applications.
It happens even after restarting Windows 7
Help on Firefox reports that I'm on 20.0.1 "you are currently on the OUTPUT channel.There is a box "Turn to update". When you click on it, Firefox will restart and the notification of «the update could not be installed...» "is there still.
I've seen this reported forever, it seems and many "bugs" is proposed, but none works. Anyone has an idea why this happens, or better yet, how to fix?
Thanks for all the answers. I followed all, and was finally able to go get rid of 4500 duplicate bookmarks, more removed XMARKS, by process of elimination
XMARKS causing Firefox to freeze
4500 Favorites in doubles, causing all sorts of problems
Removal of records and profiles corrected problems updates updates.
All these problems hit me at once. Who would have thought?
Thank you again... -

I got a response on another area of support.
And
Because I asked for help here-
I think it's the kind of thing to do to post the
steps that allowed me to correct.
I knew I had the latest Adobe air platform.
I felt that I knew that the download files were updated.
So-
What was one of the suggestions I've had -
Told to turn off the firewall and antivirus.
Instinct made me disconnect the machine from the router.
I continued and disabled all the protections I had put in place-
and watched as the first program installed air -.
Since before January.
Then put those protections back in line.
And re-attached the router line.
It doesn't seem to work now.

I keep trying to install a program, and it will not be installed. It is said that there are other programs that run in the background.
The best way to see what's running is press ctrl + alt + delete at the same time and open the Task Manager. Then under the applications tabs, it will show you all the programs that are running. You can click and close the program from here. If it is empty, then the problem is most likely a program process that is running. On the tabs in process, you can find the process that is running and the origin of the problem. You can click on the program here and so close. I hope this helps. If this isn't the case, you could let us know what kind of program you want to install.

original title: Remote Assistance does not work
Win XP PRO SP3
Question #1:
When you try to send an invitation to support remote I get an error message "a program could not start. Please try again. »
This error pops up before even the invitation is created, so the problem is with the creation of the invitation and not with problems of subsequent connection between the computers. The invitation is never created. This happens on several computers I own or maintain.
The event log records all errors when this happens.
I searched for hours all over the Internet and a lot of people seem to have this problem. Some it is resolved, for the most part, they needed to start a service, but the cause of their problem is not the same as mine.
After restarting the computer, sometimes the invitation creation works fine.
Other DIY suggests when the problem appears it can be corrected by running the command 'sessmgr-service' in a command line window. After executing this line it seems that the problem is resolved.
What I find disconcerting is that Sessmgr.exe is the service Remote Desktop Help Session Manager that was already running, but for some unknown reason runs this line made work again right. I'll have to experiment more.
Is it possible to debug and fix this?
Question #2:
When I can finally send an invitation it will work on the local network but not on the Internet. I can't connect to the Internet.
I'm looking at the structure and the content of the invitation to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240167(v=prot.10).aspx
In the example given here, as in the generated invitations in my experiences, the invitation contains only the LAN IP addresses (with port number) but no global address.
RCTICKET =... 192.168.1.65:3389; Jeff: 3389How the computer expert is supposed to understand the global address to which it should connect is a mystery to me.
How can I get Remote Assistance to work on the Internet?

Original title: I get repeated messages from Google that says, "Google has detected.
I get repeated messages from Google that says, "Google has detected suspicious activity from your computer. Please make sure that you are not a robot. Type the letters you see in the text box. "or words to that effect. I can't search because when I enter a keyword and click on enter, I redirected to this message. How can I solve this problem?This problem was reported as being caused by the ISP redirect traffic sent to google.com. This causes Google to see a lot of traffic from the same IP address, which she sees as suspicious. See this:
http://www.Google.com/support/forum/p/Web+search/thread?TID=1c8ae8e6799f5408&hl=en
If you are sure that you have no malicious software, that would be merit to be studied.

I get the following error message 'The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded' when I try to go to firefox home. I uninstalled modules, uninstalled Firefox and then install a new version. Still have the problem.
Thanks for the helpThis problem may be caused by a corrupt installation of Visual C++ or incomplete (several versions can be installed-by-side; SxS) it lacks certain runtime components (redistributable Packages), which depends on Firefox (problem with an embedded manifest file that specifies a specific runtime version).
You need to install the missing components (for example, Redistrbutable end 2005 ++).
