Hello JF.
I don't think that extension is supported. I believe Firefox can only read .json and .html.

  • Firefox crashes after a few minutes when using say Ebay and Yahoo sites. Also internet exploer also does the same. I do not know much about computers please help if possible. Many thanks. PS I have the latest Firefox version

    The problem has just started. I did get a funny windows coming up about 'best video down loader' but I do have that addon already.

    I have too have lost all function to my smart mailboxes upon installing Yosemite. I also lost all my flagged email. Any solutions yet? I will be bummed if I have to recreate my email because I was foolish enough to install this upgrade too soon. Will I ever learn to wait? Ugh.

  • Update to iOS 4 states "You have the latest version of iTunes"

    When syncing my iTouch 2nd Gen 16GB via iTunes, the Summary page tells me to click Update to instal iOS 4, but when clicking on Update I only get a message telling me that I have the latest version of iTunes... which I know already!
    However, having scanned the discussions on iSO 4, I get the impression that it is causing more problems than benefits, so it may be better to wait until the kinks are sorted, especially for the more mature status of the venerable 2nd Gen???
    If not, how do I get Update to actually update to iOS 4, please?

    Yes, it was very early Sorry to keep you waiting.
    Okay, so on your summary page, there is a button "Check for Update". If it is not visible, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes i.e *iTunes 9.2.1.5*
    Go to the Apple Software Update in the Windows Start Menu or in the Macintosh Finder in 'Applications'.
    Yes, there are some problems with iOS4 and 2nd Gen iPod Touch, as the processor is not fully compatible with the software and operation becomes a little slower and often, customers and owners of 2nd Gen complain that their device CAN handle the features that iOS4 offers the newer generation of iPod, but are not able to, hence why they turn to jailbreaking to enable such features.

  • MAC OSX 10.4.11 I finally succumbed to the constant irritating messages telling me that I didn't have the latest version. My old version and all my bookmarks have been deleted my Mac says it doesn't support Firefox! How can I recuperate my old settings?

    MAC OSX 10.4.11 I succumbed to the constant messages telling me that I didn't have the latest version, despite being happy with the one I had. My old version and all my bookmarks have been deleted and now my Mac says it doesn't support Firefox!!!!! How can I recuperate my old settings? in English

    Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' (like yours) and require '''at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac'''.
    The latest supported version for your os is '''3.6.27''' , you can download it from:
    http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    1. Download a 3.6.27 copy of the Firefox from the above link
    2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
    3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27)
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so probably you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data, if you don't already ''totally'' uninstall firefox(user data and settings like bookmarks, extensions, etc. located here: ~Library/Application Support/Firefox so you must uninstall it separately, to totally uninstall firefox).

    Hi.  I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader,  It worked yesterday.  Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files.  I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow.  I have deleted and reinstalled the application.  I have rebooted.  I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program.  Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message.  It simply says Attempt to access invalid address.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
    Regards,
    Rave

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Hi All, I have the latest version of iTunes, however since upgrading I can no longer get iTunes to recognise that any devices (iPhone / iPad) are connected? Can anyone help please. Paul

    Try holding down CTRL as you launch iTunes to see if it will repair the drivers.
    Or try Cerbu's post here.
    Or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
    Please let us know which approach works for you...

    I have the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader. I operate on Windows 7 with Outlook as my e-mail filter. However, over the past month or so, my Reader has constantly become "not responding" whenever I open-up a pdf file that was attached to an e-mail. When trying to read the pdf file, it doesn't allow me to scroll through the document and then goes into "not responding" mode which forces me to exist and then re-open the file many times until I have been able to read the documents. This "not responding" shut down to the pdf file is constant and very annoying. What is going on and how can I fix it?
         THanks,

    Thank you for your kind and thoughtful input.
    My Adobe reader is the most current one that's out there per Adobe.
    Something like XII  or higher.
    As for my Outlook, it's MS Outlook 2003, and I believe it's Express Outlook.
    If I disable the Protected Mode, per your suggestion, maybe that will work.
    I'll try it.
    Thanks again, and if you have any other ideas, I would appreciate your
    thoughts.
    Thank you.

  • Firefox has slow start up & I have the latest version. IE, Chrome, AOL start right away. Firefox takes up to 10 minutes.

    Firefox has slow start up & I have the latest version. IE, Chrome, AOL start right away. Firefox takes up to 10 minutes.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • Pages is telling me that I need a newer version before I can open my document.  I have the latest version and I am able to open older versions.  Whats up?

    Pages is telling me that I need a newer version before I can open my document.  I have the latest version and I am able to open older versions.  Whats up?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • HT4972 I'm trying to update my iphone 3G to ios5 - however in Itunes when I 'check for updates' it is advising me that I have the latest version (4.2.1). Hence I can't update and now I can't run a few of the apps I previously used. Help!

    Following a backup and restore of my iphone 3g I have lost the use of a number of apps - this seems to be as they need ios5 or later to support them and I only have 4.2.1
    When I check for updates via itunes I am advised that I have the latest version - but clearly I don't.
    Any help gratefully received on how I can upgrade to ios5
    Yally

    Sadly, the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

  • I have the latest version of Firefox. How do I clear my personal info and then clear the cache?

    I have the latest version of Firefox. It is: Firefox/3.6.13 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729).
    I got a page that said I needed to clear my personal information, then clear my cache. It said I could do that in the "tools" menu. The "tools" menu has no such option.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Thats' all well and good, but FIREFOX crashes when I click on those links. I'm not doing it again. Heck with it.
    Am going to TRY and get my old version of FIREFOX back.
    If it were not THIS problem, I'm sure I'd be having another problem because I've had nothing BUT problems since I "updated" my browser, the way my neighbor says you are supposed to.
    Thanks anyway, caldwell418

  • Firefox will updage. I get this message: Something is preventing firefox from updating securely. Please make sure that you have the latest version

    I get this error message: Something is preventing Firefox from updating securely. Please make sure that you have the latest version of Firefox. I have uninstalled and re-installed. It did not work. Support tells me to click on Firefox at the top. I have no word at the top which says Firefox. I have the Firefox icon.

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
