How do you do a click to check for updates in firefox 4?

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/780312''
In firefox 3 there was an option to check for current updates .. I noticed in Firefox four my digital persona does work with my finger print reader anymore and its really more convient for me just to swipe my finger to log onto a website without having to remember every single password and its a pain in the rear end to look for them.. how do i check for updates to make sure I can repair a lot of the current problem with firefox 4 .. I love the program but it just has a few small flaws that I am sure will work its self out ..

Firefox program updates are handled thru the Help > About Mozilla Firefox menu item, there's a Check for Updates button in that dialog when automatic updates are turned off.
You can check for extension updates manually in the Tools > Addons > Extensions tab. Right-click an extension and use the Find Update menu item.
I doubt in that fingerprint reader will update with Find Updates, though. You should look for updates at the fingerprint reader software website.

    Demo,
    I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do that the instruction says since i am not familiar with Apple at all what are quick links even? Am i supposed to do this on Itunes on my Ipad or on the computer?
    this was that reply you mentioned.
    I spoke with Apple Tech Support and they guided me through this.  I was trying to get the App Store working on a new iPad mini using a new, but existing Apple ID.  To get it to work, I had to go onto iTunes on my main computer (not on the iPad).  I had been trying to use the Sign In button, and I was having the issue of being "forced" to enter a credit card, which I did not want to do.  Here was the solution I was given, which worked for me.
    Log out of iTunes, if you are not already.  (Or hit Cancel if you're on the Review Payment screen.)
    Instead of going into Sign In, go to Redeem under the Quick Links, on the right-hand side, down a bit.
    Go through the screens, accepting the EULA, etc.  You will get to a Review Payment screen, similar to the one you saw before, but it will have a None button.
    You can enter an iTunes card here if you want, but I was able to leave that field blank and still successfully get the account set up, ready to use on the iPad.

    Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active or try again latter.

  • How do I allow offline use AND check for updates if online?

    I am actually not sure if this is a bug or not, as the behavior changed when I updated from 1.6u20 to u21. I have an application in a single JAR, and a JNLP file. I am testing with Windows 7 64-bit (with both the 32- and 64-bit version of the JVM installed, 1.6u20-b06 on both). The application cache is enabled. Here is my JNLP file:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii"?>
    <jnlp
      spec="6.0+"
      codebase="http://hidden"
      href="Librarian.jnlp">
      <information>
        <title>Librarian</title>
        <vendor>Vendor</vendor>
        <homepage href="http://hidden"/>
        <description>Description.</description>
        <offline-allowed/>
        <shortcut online="false">
          <desktop/>
          <menu submenu="Vendor"/>
        </shortcut>
        <icon href="Librarian.gif"/>
      </information>
      <security>
        <all-permissions/>
      </security>
      <resources>
        <j2se version="1.6+"/>
        <jar href="Librarian.jar" main="true"/>
      </resources>
      <application-desc main-class="com.vendor.apps.librarian.Librarian"/>
    </jnlp>I am observing the following behavior wrt updates and allow-offline:
    When allow-offline is present:
    - JWS does not download updates to the JAR file when the desktop link is clicked.
    - The application can run when I disable the network connection.
    - The "-offline" switch is passed to javaw in the desktop shortcut.
    When allow-offline is not present:
    - JWS does download JAR updates when the desktop link is clicked.
    - The application can not run when I disable the network connection (HostNotFoundException).
    - The "-offline" switch is not passed to javaw in the desktop shortcut.
    What I want to happen is for JWS to check for updates if it can, and if it times out, instead of barfing, just go ahead and run the cached version. What I can get right now is either no updates + offline allowed, or updates + offline disallowed. However, I can obtain the behavior I want if I specify allow-offline then hand-edit the desktop shortcut and remove "-offline":
    When allow-offline is present but I remove "-offline" from the desktop shortcut:
    - JWS does download updates to the JAR file.
    - The application can run when I disable the network connection, after a short timeout.
    Now, I was under the impression that this behavior is the intended behavior of allow-offline: attempt to download update, on error, silently start the cached version instead. This does not seem to be the case. I actually wonder if this is a bug, as with 1.6u20, it seemed to download JAR updates just fine when allow-offline was specified (I had issues when the cache was disabled with 1.6u20, and so I moved to u21).
    How can I make this work the way I want without having to hand edit the desktop shortcut?
    Is this a bug, or am I misconfiguring (OED says this is a real word!) the application?
    Is there something else I have to do to indicate that the JAR is updated besides just uploading a new version to the server?
    It should be noted that I am not doing any web page magic here, I'm testing by simply downloading the JNLP file off the server and opening it. This is actually my first JWS experience and I haven't gotten to properly embedding it in a web page yet. I do not know if this is significant or not.
    Thanks!

    Well, I solved that quick. I've been staring at it for over an hour but it popped out at me as soon as I looked at my JNLP file in my post here (guess it's the red text, heh).
    All I need to do is set online="true" in the shortcut, and also specify allow-offline, and all works exactly as I want it to. :-)
    Perhaps it was a bug in u20 that was causing it to check for updates anyways even with an offline shortcut... I'm not sure, and I don't have it in me to test it any more at the moment.
    Thanks,
    M

  • How do I turn off the automatic check for update on opening Firefox? I want to turn off that "what's new" page.

    How do I turn off that automatic update that always brings me to the "what's new" web page? It was interesting the first time, but now it is just an irritation. I can check for updates on my own, so I want to turn off this feature. It just started up when I upgraded to Firefox 5. I can't find a place to stop it from checking and bringing me to that web page. Also, I can't stop it from checking add-ons every single time I open the browser.

    did you check the suggestions mentioned in the article i posted in my previous post ??

  • Can't figure out how to check for updates in Firefox for Ubuntu

    I'm running "Firefox 3.6.13 Mozilla Firefox for Ubunto canonical - 1.0". How do I check for updates? The how-to here in the help site says to look for the updates item in the Help menu but there isn't any such. I can't find it in the Tools menu, or in Edit>Preferences. Where is it hiding?

    Only the official builds from Mozilla can get updates patches as one cannot expect Mozilla to provide update patches to builds that Mozila did not well build.
    The reason the Help->Check for updates was missing was because Ubuntu removed it.

  • How do I re-enable option to check for updates in Acrobat 11?

    I had this till the time I was using Acrobat 10.xx until couple weeks back - recently purchased a license for version XI and the deployment was streamed to my computer by my company's IT department through Microsoft Software Centre. After the upgrade I don't see the option to check for upgrades under any menu. I have tried a re-install and a repair as well, but to no avail. How can I re-enable the option to check for updates?
    Thanks

    Thanks so much @LeoAdobeX - that indeed was the problem. I changed it to 1 in registry and see the option in the Help menu now. Thanks again.

    My iTunes won't update on my computer. I have windows vista. I can open up itunes and when I click on "check for updates" it asks if I want to download iTunes version 11.1.5 and I click "Download iTunes" but then nothing happens. Sometimes uptop the loading bar will appear but for only a split second. I have tried restarting, shutting down, I cannot figure out why it won't download. What's happening and how do I fix it?

    Try updating using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

    Hi,
    If you are referring to Help -> Check for Updates, I'm not certain if that is possible.
    If you mean Tools -> Preferences -> Extensions, just uncheck the Automatically Check for Updates box. Doing that is standard procedure for improving the tool's launch performance.

  • Trying to use "check for updates"

    why when do i click in "check for updates" the itunes said that i'm not connected to the internet or to tr again later .I' using the 6.0.2 , when i used the earlier one was fine.
    TKS DUDU

    Who cares if the auto update thing doesn't work? I don't.
    Doesn't that update try to auto-start the installation over the internet?
    Which is bad Windows business, to begin with. I immediatley turned it off the first time it asked me to update.
    I never let anything download automatically without me saying yes or no.
    How else can you figure out what might have gone wrong with your PC, if it's doing stuff in the background that hasn't been really acknowledged?
