Thunderbird updates me to version 3.1.10, but website says latest version is 24.5. Huh?

I am thoroughly confused. I'm getting a new computer, and figured that I should update to the latest version of Thunderbird so that I can migrate my data to that version on the new computer. I go to the Thunderbird website and see that the latest version is 24. But when I go to Help -> Check for Updates in Thunderbird, it tells me that the latest version is 3.1.10! I thought the message might be in error, so I proceeded with the update, but it did indeed install a version numbered 3.1.10 (and 5 minutes after that, Check for Updates tell me that there is a LATER version, 3.1.20!). I did Google searches and looked through the Thunderbird FAQ, and I could not find out what is going on with Thunderbird version numbers. I thought it might have to do with the fact that I'm running Windows XP, but I checked the system requirements for version 24 and XP is listed as an option. Why do I get a version 3 when version 24 is the latest?

Upgrading an ancient version such as 1 or 2 evidently only takes you to version 3, so just download the full installer for 24 from the link at the top of this page (click the mozilla logo) and install it over version 3.

Had my Nikon D600 recently in for the updated service call. Camera works fine but Photoshop says it cannot open my RAW (NEF) files now? It worked fine before and I have done all my updates.

The only thing I can think of is if you got a replacement D610 as rumored here:
http://nikonrumors.com/2014/01/27/nikon-is-replacing-some-d600-cameras-with-new-d610-model s.aspx/
In that case, you would need the new version of Camera RAW or DNG converter as per Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras .
The other thing to check is if the files open in the Nikon native ViewNX software. If they don't it's time to call the service center.

You have a 3G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 5.1.1. Its hardware does not support a higher iOS version.
The 4G only go to 6.1.5.
Only the 5G can go to iOS 7

Try going to Settings>Store and sign out and sign back in.
It also could be due to an Apple server problem. and yu will just have to wait and try again.

I tried to update my itunes to 11.1.3, but it says itunes64setup is not a valid Win32 application? What do I do now?

That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

HT201210 hi i did update my iphone 3gs it was successful but it says that i have no sim card in it

i did update my iphone 3gs it was successful but when it restart it doesnt know my simcard, anybody can help me

Your iPhone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it to use it on a different network. Now that you have updated the OS it has relocked to the original carrier. Call AppleCare and give them the serial and model numbers so they can tell you who it is locked to. Then contact that carrier and see if you can get the iPhone unlocked.

HT3960 My iPhone will not update. it keeps asking me to restore but then says there's an internal error -1. At first it wouldn't update saying there was no SIM Card. This was a used phone that i had the SIM Card replaced

Got a used iPhone4 to replace my lost one, had the screen replaced and then had the SIM card replaced by Best Buy.
They had issues in the store connecting to iTunes but the Geek Squad where they wiped it and said all was good.
Got home to update it and all was good up to the point where i needed to have the phone to work.
Then it wouldn't recognize there was a SIM card and to restore my phone.
it comes up now with unable to restore, unknown error -1
Help please

Perhaps try the Error 1 or -1 advice from the following document:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting

HT4623 I am trying to update to ios6 on my iPad 1, but it says that all updates are current at ios5.1.1

I have an iPad 1 and am trying to update to ios6, but the software update button under General Settings states that ios 5.1.1 is current and won't update.

That's correct. The first generation iPad is incapable of running iOS 6 or newer.

I know why I have been having problems with FF 3.6.16 and the last thunderbird update

I am in Canada and for some reason downloads for both 3.6.12 FF and the last Thunderbird update was the BritishVersions thats why I have UK search engines, not the US versions maybe that is why I am have trouble with my email and addons. The other 2 computers in my house is the US versions.
But there is still something a bit screwey with 3.6.12 some of the addons are not working properly on the other puters. Can you please change the sofware to the US version please????? Thank you
I have deleted the software twice already. before realizing I was downloading the british version.....same problem with my Thunderbird can't connect to isp even though everything is done correctly!!!!! Help!!!!!

You probably can do that.<br />
If you keep the wrong language then remove the offending language pack from the chrome folder in the Firefox program folder.
You may need to (re)set the pref "general.useragent.locale" to the preferred language ("en-US") on the about:config page.<br />
You can open the about:config page via the location bar, like you open a web site.<br />
Use the Filter bar at the top of that page to quickly locate the pref.

Thunderbird updated now calender gone how do I get it back with all my info that was in it?

Thunderbird updated to 24.1.0 I think now my calender has gone along with all my info how do I get it back????
I need access to my calender urgently !!

Get the correct version of Lightning for the version of Thunderbird you are running. Do not upgrade one without the other. Once you have a matched pair your events will return.

Thunderbird updated yesterday and now nothing is displayed except the top toolbars.What do I do?

My address book is still there, and it still showed that it downloaded my new messages, but there is no way to access them. The whole screen is blank except for the toolbars at the top. No Inbox, folders, nothing. Guess I shouldn't have updated.

Nope. "…after upgrading to TB31 on a Windows 7 system…"
The similarity led me to wonder if this was a TB31 issue rather than Windows version related.
This below is from the system where it all happened, though now of course I have reverted to an older TB:
Name Thunderbird
Version 24.6.0
User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/24.6.0
Application Build ID 20140610001341
Elsewhere it says "Windows 7 Professional" and "Service Pack 1" though of course all that is displayed the traditional perverse Microsoft way in a non copy-and-pastable format. :-S
I now use gContactSync which also wanted to do some some reformatting, but the one bit that's survived intact is the Address Book. It would be odd for different contact sync tools to have trashed the mailstore and settings files, eh?
I've also seen reports that MoreFunctionsForAddressBooks breaks auto-completion in TB31, but I don't see that happening on my trusty Linux box.
I'm back at work this work after a break and some illness, and in that time away I was using exclusively Android and Linux. I'm not a big fan of the tablet and Android, but I'd forgotten just how painful and awkward it has become to use Windows. People, look around. There are free alternatives and they let you do it as you want, not as dictated by Redmond!
I'm currently copying my important work stuff over to Outlook. I'm scared of what might happen next time if I inadvertently let TB "upgrade" again. :-(

Since I updated firefox to version 24.0 today, I can no longer read my email messages on my Yahoo or Verizon email websites.

I can get to the email websites for Yahoo and Verizon. But when I click on an email to read it, I get the error message "There appears to be a problem loading the email". This only started today when I updated to Firefox version 24.0. I'm still running Firefox version 22.0 on my work computer and I do not have any problems reading my email on my Yahoo and Verizon email websites from that computer.

Thank you! I cleared the cache and only deleted the cookies from the yahoo and verizon sites. This fixed my issue and I can read my email again now. Thank you so much Waka_Flocka_Flame and cor-el!

I have just updated Acrobat to version 10.1.13. I am using a MAC Running Yosemite. When I try to scan a document, after the printer scans Adobe Acrobat quits and I get an unexpected closure error.

I have just updated Acrobat to version 10.1.13. I am using a MAC Running Yosemite. When I try to scan a document, after the printer scans Adobe Acrobat quits and I get an unexpected closure error. I am running Mac OS 10.10.1. This only started happening when I installed the update of Adobe Acrobat.

Hi MEW1,
Is the printer connected wirelessly or wired?
Go to Preferences and under categories go to > Convert to Pdf then select the Image Capture and then hit ok button.
Close Acrobat and then relaunch it and see if it helps you while you do scanning.

Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now?
