Try loading "subject: preferences" and Firefox responds 'the address is not valid' and 'Page download problem'... what gives?

The question has all the details inside...

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox, Tools/menu key > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

  • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

Your personal data such as bookmarks are stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose data when you uninstall and (re) install or update Firefox, but make sure you do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

If you keep the problems, and then create a new profile.

  • The address is not valid problem when opening new tab

    opening of firefox (I crash usually close under Task Manager), it reloads all tabs as it should.
    But when you open a new tab, I get "the address is not valid.
    I tried all the parameters of the start of the blank home page and latest opening option.
    I have tried all suggestions in other markets, reset... Subject: config
    I wish it had a document giving detailed information for all parameters
    When on the topic: config and search newtab, the only user adjustment (not default) is
    browser.newtabpage.storageVersion; 1 and I tried 0,1,2,3,4,5 restart no change even between the two.
    Have been re-intall, reset, safe mode, nothing works
    the tab works normally after the error, which means that I can start typing in the address bar and even complete works of auto... I restarted just fz and he did a 27.0.1 update
    that did not fix it either... I'm bored of the default page of fx that has recent photos.


  • I can't get my default address bar, whenever I try to do a search for it a message pops up saying that the address is not valid, that the URL is not valid

    I'm sure that you when it is able to search from the location bar, however I can't do that. If you just type a Word, a message appears saying it was not valid, or a valid url. If you type in a word associated with a web page, it will go to this page... for example, if you type in the fire engine, I get the message, but if I type in snopes, it goes to www.snopes .com

    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.

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a new copy of Firefox.

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will also lose your personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • How to find the address is not valid even if Google returns geocoding?

    Hey, guys:

    I use Oracle APEX to get Google geocoding, but some addresses are actually disabled, Google returns always an alternative geocoding, probably the center of the city. Is it possible that I might know that it is in fact an invalid address, so I can avoid using these inaccurate geocoding? For example, the address is incorrect, then how do I find is invalid n address same Google map service returns a geocode?
                   declare
                
                     l_address varchar2(4000);
                     l_url varchar2(32000);
                     l_response varchar2(3200);
                
                     BEGIN
                        /* TODO implementation required */

    Oh, and in the second place, when you look at the documentation of the api:

    >
    geometry contains the following information:

    location contains the geocoded latitude, longitude value. For normal address searches, this field is usually the most important.
    location_type stores extra data at the specified location. The following values are currently supported:

    On the 'ROOF' indicates that the returned result is a precise geocoding for which we have accurate location information until the accuracy of the address.
    'RANGE_INTERPOLATED' indicates that the returned result reflects an approximation (usually on a road) interpolated between two specific points (for example, intersections). Interpolated results are usually returned when the geocoded on the roof are not available for a street address.
    "GEOMETRIC_CENTER" indicates that the result returned is the geometric center of a result such as a polyline (for example, a street) or polygon (region).
    "APPROXIMATE" indicates that the result returned is approximate.
    display window contains the window recommended to display the result returned, specified as two latitude, values of longitude defining the Southwest and northeast of the viewport encompassing. The display window is generally used to frame a result when it displays to the user.
    limits (possibly returned) stores the bounding box that can fully contain the returned result. Note that these limits may not correspond to the recommended viewport. (For example, San Francisco includes the Farallon Islands, which are technically part of the city, but probably should not be returned in the display window.)
    partial_match indicates that the geocode not returned an exact match to the original application, although it was not part of the requested address. You can examine the original query for misspellings or incomplete address. Partial matches most often occur for addresses that do not exist in the locality that you pass in the query.

    I think you should examine the data returned by the API a bit, it should say that it is an approximate result in some cases.

  • When I click on my icon of firefox homepage says "the address is not a valid URL. The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded. How can I fix it?

    This 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 ++).

    I had a long discussion with a Support Agent and finally solved my problem in activating my root user... after a lot of trial and error/attemtpts. Here is my summary just fyi, I hope this works for you also.

    I'm on MacBook Pro OS X 10.8.5.

    1. They had me first go to ~/Library/Applications support/Adobe/OOBE and delete the file 'opm.db '... Creative cloud question remained.
    2. Then they asked me to go to support/Adobe ~/Library/Applications and rename the files "AAMUpdater" and "OOBE"... and go to the library/application support/Adobe (note this is a different path) and remane the files "AAMupdater" and "AAMupadaterInventory"... question remained.
    3. They had me also go to my Netwrok Prefrences, Proxy server to configure, and enusre all boxes are unchecked and "use Passive FTP Mode (PASV)" also unchecked... did not help, the question remained.
    4. Of course they had me uninstall and then reinstall the creative cloud application, which I did (Applications > utilities > Adobe installer and run the "uninstall Creative Cloud")... but the question remianed.
    5. Finally, they had me to visit this page on the Apple support page, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 and activated the user root for OS X Lion.
      1. After allowing the root user (and create a new password for it), I rebooted my Mac
      2. Saved in my Mac once as 'root' and connected to Adobe Creative Cloud using my usual Adobe user/email name and password.
      3. Go to the 'Applications' tab, and it worked perfectly!
      4. I disconnected the root on my Mac, then that reconnected me.
      5. Launched the creative application of Cloud, connected and went to 'Apps'... works great!
