My PC is connected to internet, but Firefox does not connect on the web
For the last two days, I could not connect to any web site through Firefox. I tried various 'solutions' that seemed logical, but nothing has worked.
My understanding of my computer / in feneral is limited so excuse me if this explanation seems too long or detailed. I do not know what information might be relevant, so I will write everything down.
First: my wifi is definitely work, because my phone connects through to this. My PC is certainly connected to the internet that I am able to send and receive mail via Outlook, and I downloaded an album via iTunes.
Other programs are running too thin.
I tried to restart my computer.
I deleted my cookies etc (just in case).
I ran my anti-virus
I turned off my Windows Firewall
I re-set my Firefox
None of this has worked. My next thought is to uninstall Firefox and re - install it... except that I don't have another browser on my PC. I used to have Chrome on my PC, but it seems to have disappeared during certain windows recent update 8.
A friend sent me an installer of Chrome, but it did not work - and in any case, I want only Chrome so I can re - download Firefox... getting Chrome is not the solution for me!
I THINK that Firefox no longer works after that my PC installed updates on a regular basis. By that I mean that a few days earlier, when I went to close my laptop, my only options were "install update and restart" or "install update and close.
I use Windows 8.1. I feel like the updates must have been the problem, because the moment seems to coincide. I really need to be able to access the web then please please help! Thank you
Hello, normally these problems are caused by a security/firewall software which does not recognize and therefore blocks the new versions of firefox. If please delete all the rules of the program for firefox to your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

I tried everything I know to uninstall the new version of Firefox. I also installed Aurora beta and it had the same behavior, and I managed to uninstall that. I can't open a browser ff to work on it with the help of a large part of your support information. I click the icon, but it does not start on the desktop but the clock running as Task Manager. I have to end task in Task Manager to close it. I can not uninstall and tried the system restore, but this also does not work due to another problem with my antivirus program.

I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "
If you have any ideas, I had appreaciate that your expertise!

Hi Andy,.
I checked the reported compatibility list, and the game is listed as compatible. Work in 64-bit or 32-bit Windows 7? I will try to reinstall the game, if you did an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 recently. If it is a new installation and does not, please visit the EA's Web site to get the latest patch for the game to see if that helps address your problem. Let me know if you've done all that and you still have questions, and we can try something else.

Packer of creative cloud in creating a package that I can install do not. He goes through the motions, download all updates, create setup file, but it does not work despite the fact that there are no errors in the log files
After hitting my head against the desk to repeatedly create packages, try on different computers I have finally found a solution.
These packages have been copied on an external drive, if I try and install from the external drive, which is a common practice, it fails.
If I then copy this file pkg from the outside, to the computer I install, then run it, it will to and moved very well.
That is mind-boggling stupid, because it's rare that you have to copy the file into any computer, it is less always installed off the coast of externally, and many people in the company are pushing on the network and the management of the suites so there is a serious problem in Adobe package manager if this is the case where it cannot manage the Middle installed offshore.
I hope that if anyone else is having problems so it suits.
