When I start Firefox, it shows nothing more than a black screen and all toolbars are empty as well
Title says it all. Every time I start Firefox, the screen is black. Where the buttons of the browser would be (buttons previous/next, toolbars, bookmarks, etc.), is a light background that does not display anything. Any help would be appreciated.
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.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, 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 allow your firewall to ask permission to get access full and unrestricted, again to install for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

I currently use version 3.6.24 Firefox on my PPC mac with 10.4.11 system. I use Firefox for many years without any problems. I received yesterday and on my screen to alert that there is a new update of Firefox available at the facility. I clicked on OK and the update started. When it's over, I checked and it's the same version, 3.6.24, I used and apparently nothing has changed until I went to my eBay site. Once on my site, I signed in and went to manage my Articles page. The page was different because normally it shows all the items, I have for sale and at the top of the list of points of sale are the three items to check and look at my listings, which I look at you, my profile and my alerts. When you click on one of them you are normally taken to another page. When I went there after apparent installation of the updated release of Firefox page showed my ads in a single column, my profile in another column and third column for my alerts all on one page. This is not normal. I got out and went to my home page which is http://www.rr.com/. Now it was different. Parts of the site have disappeared, the sections with the weather, news, and reviews. I thought it might be the site and then I launched Safari and went to the same page and it is normal. This morning when I started Firefox it shows my home page as screwed up as yesterday. Safari has shown as it should look like. I then started SeaMonkey and it showed the page as it should look like. I really like Firefox and I'd like to get it working again as it should. Would appreciate any suggestions. My email address is [email protected]

When I start the system upward, it goes to my logon screen and the computer crashes
I have a windows vista computer and when I start the SUST until it goes to my login screen, I connect the Welcome screen comes the computer hangs... I do a control-Alt - Delete that returns the desk top
When you get on the desktop, open the start menu to search msconfig and press ENTER.
When the popup window appears, it should start under the general tab, and you should see normal startup. For now, set it to start diagnosis, press ok and restart the computer. If it still crashes, then replace the and set it back to normal startup, as something else is causing this problem.
If she does not hang, and then back up the, set back to normal and this time go to the Startup tab. The list is all the things that are set to start when you start your computer. One of them is causing the computer to crash.
If you have an idea that it might be that you can deselect it, apply, then reboot and see if it still crashes. Or you could just go in the list, one at the same time turn them off then restart suspended far, so you know which is the cause.

When I turn on my computer, I get a blank black screen. Then, I turned off the computer and turned it back and a message says turn on in safe mode, safe mode with networking, or safe mode with command prompt.

I downloaded the file: yahoo_firefox_4.0 - rc2_setup_us.exe from your site. After installing and starting of firefox, all the menus and toolbards here where he is in charge with the exception of the web page. What I'm trying to write the url address, it displays a blank white page. Previous versions of firefox used to work and I can connect to the internet using internet Explorer
One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks 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 in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container.

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and lost more than 1500 + songs and all my playlists. Help! What? I want just the support I can not find ANYWHERE for iTunes. Apple - I will never buy anything from you - programs, computers, nothing.
You do not discuss Apple here.
Just restore it from your backup copy.
Certainly you don't not updated software on your computer without making sure that you had a copy of recent backup.

Hello
1. have you made changes on the computer recently?
Method 1.
Change hardware acceleration
You can try to change the hardware acceleration in the middle and check (you can try another level too.)
a. right click on a space empty on the desktop.
b. go to the resolution of the screen.
c. click Advanced settings, and then click the "troubleshooting."
d. set the hardware acceleration in the middle. (here you'll get the only option your video card sound support).
Method 2.
a. you can also check that Windows is up-to-date to check updates for your hardware.
You can also run the difficulty below that diagnoses and identify codecs that can cause windows to become unstable or stop responding.
http://support.Microsoft.com/GP/video_freezes_or_crashesb. if the problem persists, you can check the latest video card driver provided by the manufacturer of the PC that is compatible with Windows Vista is installed.You can also check out the article below which explains to update hardware drivers.Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

I have two computers. Those infected with Windowx XP Home Edition. All of a sudden (yesterday October 18, 2010) the ThinkPoint popup appeared. On my own computer, I looked for solutions and has been able to stop the service through the Task Manager. Then downloaded MalwareBytes. He scanned and detected 5 elements. He then opened a text window indicating that the 1 point might be deleted and needed to restart the computer. So, I followed the instructions on the window of MalwareBytes. But after reboot, a black screen. If he walks again and a black screen. F8 works but after I chooseany mode (safe mode, previous configuration, etc.) a black screen again. I looked for solutions and all assume them safe mode or any different normal windows mode, it works. My problem is that no boot option (same normal Windows) seems to work. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

The 'Creative cloud' window shows nothing more than a spinning icon...
I just pay for the CC of Photoshop version. When I click on 'Download' the creative cloud window opens and I see is a blue - spinning icon... nothing else happens.
Thoughts?
Thank you.
Hello
I also had to do this experiment.
Sometimes - for some reason-CC "unwilling" work. In this case you should CC completely remove and reinstall by using Adobe Creative cloud cleaning tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)I quote:... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3 - CS6) applications. The tool removes the records facility for preliminary facilities of Cloud applications or Creative Suite creative. It does not affect existing installations of earlier versions of Creative Suite or creative Cloud applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
If necessary and for questions and so "open" Please use the cat, plus I had the best experiences.

Programs open to showing only top left of the screen and some programs are huge
origin: headache Visual, even to post this questionI have a dell dimension 3000
Win XP SP3I have a problem with my video in general: everything happens in my screen showing that only the upper left corner of the screen when I open my browser and components such as the windows Task Manager appear HUGE! (looks like it tries to run in multi-monitor mode sort - but the system has never put up for that, my cursor handles also away from the screen to my right and taskbar are low down and unable to increase... any suggestions?) I tried to play with the resolution settings, but that does not solve the problem
(Sorry if post Q is in bad shape, this is my first post and visit)
-Clark
Well the reason why I think why your taskbar are cut is very likely due to the monitor settings. On your monitor, you should see a series of buttons. Try to play with them and watch the screen for something like auto or something in that sense. If you do not then you will need to manually change the horizontal and vertical positioning. There are several other settings for the width and height, etc.
And a question, is the video driver installed on the system?

Hello
1 try a restore of the system before this happened
http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm
2. change how you get updates and hide the problem, right-click on it then UAC then hide it
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial140.html
Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.
Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need or who have limited access to internet

Connection to a VDI with PCoIP desktop shows a black screen and little disconnects
I have an image of the mother and the pools built from this image. They work well. I created a new pool from this image with VDIs 10 gold. When I assigned people to this pool, they complained on black screen and when I looked at the papers I found some possible solutions to this problem.
We are on view 5.3
Operating system: WIN 7 32-bit.
So far, I have these patches:
(1) replace connect via GPO DNS
(2) increases vram and no monitors
Nothing has worked so far. Any help with this well really much appreciated. I have attached the log file. Ask if you need more info or newspapers on this subject.
Kind regards
Anoop.
I found the problem. I tried to upgrade the agent from the view and then reinstalled 5.3. But the pilot svga not to downgrade to 8,15 and so the error. I uninstalled the tools and agent and reinstalled the VMware tools and the former agent of view in good order and he got the old svga driver (7.14) and now its work. Thank you to all who responded.

I checked the Personas of Mozilla, has seen one I liked and added the. When I start Firefox, the Mozilla start page shows as usual with Google on this subject. The character I chose shows barely and only in the area of the toolbars at the top of the screen. Can I change the start page to not display Google and access Google another average, so that my character is displayed on the start page of together?
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
== I added on Persona
As you can see on the article using themes with Firefox , personas are 'lightweight themes that can change the color plan and the Firefox toolbar background image' and they do not change Web pages.
If you do not see Google as home page you can watch How to set the home page and change it.
Finally Firefox 3.5.x will be maintained with security and stability updates until August 2010, so you may want to update to a newer version.
