How do I just remove the current update to 3.6.12 and go back to an earlier version as I can not take the continual freeze ups ever few mins.? If this continues I will remove Firefox totally and switch to another browser I can not take this anymore.

I can NOT take the continual freeze ups of my entire browser even worse when updating a page let alone just opening email. I closed the browser and have had to use even just microsoft or Google since this Firefox has gotten so horrible...
I clear my history and my cache so many times a day I can not keep track anymore and that is insane to have to do it as many times as I am even worse that it does not help in the least!
I have used Firefox for years now but if I have to remove it and switch to a different one by the days end I will and I will post in Facebook to all my friends who I had switch to Firefox what and why though some have already just switched to other browsers.

First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion.  To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4.  What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content.  Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems.  You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults.  A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install.  If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

    That was probably caused by your Firewall blocking the newly installed version of Firefox.
    No known security issues with Firefox 3.6.17, which was just released this past week.

  • Can I uninstall Pages 5.5.2 and go back to an earlier version?

    Can I uninstall Pages 5.5.2 and go back to an earlier version? I have Yosemite 10.10 and am working on a MacBook Air. The new version of Pages does not auto capitalize first word in sentence or "I" and I need these capabilities.

    You asked about Pages 5.5.2.
    That Preference does not exist in Pages 5.5.2, you have to use Pages '09.
    To get rid of Pages 5.5.2 just drag it from your Applications to your trash, but be warned that any documents you created in Pages 5.5.2 will first need to be Exported back to Pages '09 format to0 be opened in Pages '09.

  • I installed the 5.0 update and now I can't reinstall my SEOBook toolbar that I depend on for work! How do I uninstall Firefox 5.0 and go back to an earlier version of Firefox so I can reinstall the SEOBook toolbar? Thank you!

    thank you!

    '''If you are having a specific issue with Firefox 5, please post the details, and someone on this support forum will try to help you.'''
    With Mozilla's accelerated release plan, the "plan" is for 5.0 to replace 4.0.1, with no further support for 4.0.* versions.
    *This will also be the case with versions 6 and 7, currently scheduled for release later this year.
    *As new versions are released, support for the prior version will be dropped.
    *The only exception, as of right now, is that version 3.6.x will continue to be supported for 3-4 months, as of this posting.
    No significant user-interface changes occurred between Firefox 4 and Firefox 5.
    95% of the Add-ons hosted at the official Add-ons website are compatible with Firefox 5.0 - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/compatibility/report.
    For extensions that are hosted elsewhere, you can try using this extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ - to force "incompatible" extensions to be enabled in 5.0 and see for yourself if they work. Then there's a "compatibility" button in the Add-ons Manager tab to report if each extension is working properly or to tell the developer of each extension what problems you're having.

  • FireFox 8.0.1 does not work with most sites that functioned with no problems under earlier versions. I wish to uninstall and go back to an earlier version.

    The more I attempt to use FireFox 8.0.1 the more problems I have. I find considerable interference with the functioning of RoboForm, my bookmarks keep disappearing, many sites that worked fine earlier and work fine with the Opera browser do not work under version 8. Where can I download an earlier version of FireFox

    You can [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox?s=uninstall+firefox&r=0&as=s uninstall] Firefox 8 first before you downgrade to Firefox 7. However, when you uninstall, make sure that you '''don't''' choose the option "'''Remove my Firefox Personal Data'''".
    You can access a list of [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ Previous Versions of Firefox], however, note that Firefox recommends using the latest version since older version may have security and safety vulnerabilities.
    '''P.S:''' it may be a good idea to create a Restore Point before you uninstall, in case you mess up, in which case you can just restore and start over.

  • I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

    I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

    In short, no.
    You can set Firefox to be the default browser, but this is a free choice.
    Installing Firefox will in no way interfere with other installed browsers.

I got this error message: "Error 1328.Error applying patch to file C:\Config.Msi\pT64b3.tmp It has probably been updated by other means1 and can no longer be modified by this patch. For more information contact your patch vendor." tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still get the error. Searched for C:\Config.Msi\pT64b3.tmp and cannot find the path or the file

    For AA XI, you only need the 11.0.09 patch. Download from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (Use "MAC" if a MAC is used).

  • I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    I just downloaded Firefox 5 and it said that my Yahoo toolbar will not work with it. Is this true? If so I will not use this new version and will switch to another browser if Firefox stops supporting the Yahoo toolbar. Thank you.

    Add-ons contain a range of compatible Firefox versions, and Firefox honors the listed range by disabling the add-on if you are trying to run it on an unlisted version.
    I'm sure Yahoo! will update its toolbar eventually, but not every add-on maker supports beta versions of software.

  • How to determine the current update level of the system

    How can we determine the current update level of the system. uname -a shows the release but how to obtain the update level through a program?
    I have this sample program to display the version
    #include <iostream>
    #include <sys/utsname.h>
    #include <dirent.h>
    using namespace std;
    int main()
      struct utsname osinfo;

    if (osinfo.release[0] != '\0')  {
        cout<<"\nRelease : " << osinfo.release;
    }My aim is to check if the Solaris box is 5.10 update 4 or not.

  • I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have.  Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording?  If so, how?  Step by step needed.  Thank you for your time.

    Did you remove Quicktime X?
    On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
    You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
    I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

  • How do i uninstall firefox 4 and go back to my last version?

    I want to uninstall this version firefox 4 and go back to my old version. Firefox 4 does not support my gamers unite snagbar add on for farm ville and i want it back

    For uninstalling Firefox 4 see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    Make sure you do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data" as that option will delete all of your bookmarks, passwords etc.
    You can re-install Firefox 3.6.15 from http://www.mozilla.com though judging by your user agent string you still have 3.6.15 installed.

  • I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID.  Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand.  Can I fix this problem?

    I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID.  Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand. 
    Is it possible to differentiate between all the devices?Can I fix this problem?

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
