Why no indication of 5.0.1 on Help About Firefox?

I had 5.0 installed a check of Help About Firefox showed it as up to date. Checking FileHippo.com showed 5.0.1, How come no indication of this in Help About Firefox?
Thanks

It is because Firefox 5.0 is still the current update for Windows and Linux users as the 5.0.1 was really only for to have a couple work around's for Mac OSX users as in a font issue for OSX 10.7 that may crash Firefox and a Java plugin loading issue on OSX 10.5. ([https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forums/contributors/707078 They say OSX 10.6 but really meant OSX 10.5])
FileHippo was not aware it was only really for MAC OSX.

Why, when I open Firefox 9.01 do I get a message that I do not have the latest version when Help-About Firefox says I do?

There are/were three problems:
'''1.''' Why, when I open Firefox 9.01 do I get a message that I do not have the latest version when '''Help>About''' Firefox says I do?
'''2.''' Also, with the 8.xx version, I was unable to open in a new window with a right click until I upgraded to 9.01. (Old problem now, but I am curious.)
'''3.''' When I tried to uninstall the older version the uninstaller told me that I had to close the open version, but it was closed according to my taskbar. I also have this problem with Thunderbird.

1. You are using the latest version which is Firefox 9.0.1
From your description it sounds as if you may still have the old http://www.google.com/firefox Firefox start page hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default homepage is no longer used as '''about:home''' has been in use since Firefox 4.0
Either ignore the message, change homepage to '''about:home''', change it to another page or leave blank.

If FireFox 8.0.1 has been released, why does my computer say it is up to date when I click on Help About FireFox?

I am wondering why my computer says it is up to date. I have FireFox 8.0 loaded and my son just went from 7.0 to 8.0.1 and cant bring up his browser. Yet, when I go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
8.0.1 will be loaded. 11/23/2011

Current Firefox 8 installations on Windows OS's aren't getting the 8.0.1. Windows users with older versions of Firefox are getting the 8.0.1 update.
If you are having a problem with Firefox 8.0 crashing, install the 8.0.1 version; otherwise, if you aren't having a crashing problem don't install the updated version.

I want to ask something about firefox. why firefox use very much memory? can you develop to reduce memory comsume? this problem is very distrub in my PC with low memory.

I want to ask something about firefox.
why firefox use very much memory?
can you develop to reduce memory comsume?
this problem is very distrub in my PC with low memory.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

How much memory is Firefox using right now?
# Press '''CTRL+SHIFT+ESC''' to load the Task Manager window
# Click the Processes tab at the top. (Click once near the top of the window if you don't see tab
# Find firefox.exe, and see how many kilobytes of memory it's using.
Showing around 80MB when Firefox first starts is normal. Right now, I have 75 tabs open and it's using 500MB - this varies a lot depending on what you have in the tabs.
Other than high memory usage, what other problems are you experiencing? (Examples include slowness, high CPU usage, and failure to load certain sites)
Many of these issues, including high memory usage, can be caused by misbehaving add-ons. To see if this is the case, try the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]. Outdated plugins are another cause of this issue - you can check for this at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck

I have an ipod touch and now it doesnt sync properly. It gets to stage 1 of 3 of syncing( Which is 'backing up') Then it stops and itunes closes. Why wont this sync and what can I do about it?

Hello,
I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
Restart the Computer. This sometimes happens to me when I keep my Windows 7 on Sleep, and I try to sync my Ipod
Make sure you have the latest version of Itunes
Hope that helps!
If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
Cheers!

Only one of my earbuds on my bose headphones works with my ipad, iphone and macbook- if I hold them there the right earbud will work, but for the life of me, I can't get them to both work. Why is this? And is Apple doing anything about this?

Only one of my earbuds on my bose headphones works with my ipad, iphone and macbook- if I hold them there the right earbud will work, but for the life of me, I can't get them to both work. Why is this? And is Apple doing anything about this? While Apple's headphones have (finally) admittedly gotten better of late, I still prefer the much more comfortable headphones & sound quality that Bose makes and that I spent the money for.

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. You can contact iTunes support via this page and ask them why the message is appearing : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then probably Purchases, Billing & Redemption

What is the "Psition Tuner" tool and why it is can't be found under Help?

Hello,
I'm using ID CS4 ME (middle eastern version) under OSX 10.5.6 and in my tools I see and icon that called "Position Tuner).
I searched in Help, no such term appears there.
I don't understand why.
anyone?
thank you
Shlomit

Hello All
First about "position tuner tool"
it is new tool for ME version and it is used with the new menu "Tasmeem"
Second it is usages
it allows users to move blocks of text, diacritics and even individual dots while preserving textual integrity and the Unicode data structure. Moreover, one can colour diacritics individually for book covers and illustrations. so you have control all over the words and dotes position
Third i wonder why it is not exist on the ID Help even though it has a great role with who works on Arabic Text
hope it wouldn't be a late answer and fulfil your knowledge needs
Thank you;

Why do I have to pay to get help for Itunes?

First off, why do I have to pay to get help?
That is absolutely ridiculous when it is someone's JOB to be a "support" for this.
I've had a reoccuring problem of my music not playing on my IPhone. I fixed it the first time by taking off all the music then re-syncing it and it was all good. This time I am trying to take all of the music off so I can try to do the same thing as before because this is happening yet AGAIN and now my ITunes isn't taking the music off and it is re-syncing it back and it isn't taking the music off in the first place. Why is it doing this? Well I'm basically venting to a community while getting no help from experts. Thank you for nothing Apple.

Apple provides telephone support for their hardware products at no charge for 90 days after purchase. If you are beyond that period and do not have AppleCare on your device, then you will be charged for the support call. If you don't want to pay, you can either make an appointment at an Apple Store, if you have one in your area, where you will be helped at no charge, or you can post details of the problem here where perhaps we, your fellow users, can assist.
I'm basically venting to a community while getting no help from experts.
You're getting no help because you're just venting, and most people here just ignore rants. You haven't posted sufficient details about your issue for anyone to offer much in the way of assistance.
Posting the same complaint twice does little good, by the way.
Regards.

Why must I repeatedly enter my master password after installing Firefox Sync and is there a setting to eliminate the need to do this?

Ever since I installed Firefox Sync I am repeatedly required by a pop-up box to enter my master password in whichever of my PCs I am using at the time. That is very annoying and I don't understand why the password is required after initial setup since the Firefox Sync Key is supposed to be unique.

Why isnt the right version showing in "About Firefox" - after installing?

There was an important update(V.6) in a pop-up window. I go ahead and install it. After installment, it pops up a new window telling me it is important to APPLY the installment. I agree on that and them it tries to contact the update server and nothing more happens. If the update is already installed, why am I asked to apply the installment? When I check the "About Firefox", it says I am still on Version 5.... It should read Version 6. Guess if I am confused. Is it installed or not?
Sincerely, Raffek

I am fighting the same error. I gifted an album to mydaughter and she got that when she tried to cash it in. iTunes support was quick to respond saying the would refund in 5 to 7 days. That was 13 days ago and they will not respond now. Try to contact support to see if they can help. Also be sure you do not have restrictions enabled in settings. If your parental controls are set to block certian content ratings this will give you an error as well.
You could also try to purchacs through the iTunes program on Mac or PC. Check your restrictions there too. If your device is company owned your employers may have restrictions enabled preventing certian apps from being installed. Hope that helps.

Why can't I access Photoshop CS4 online help?

Why can't I access Photoshop CS4 online help?

Yes, you are right. The web-based online help is available only for the current version of Photoshop. I also discovered how to access the online help that originally came on my CS4 disk. You turn on the offline option (Windows>Extensions>Connections). With the online help from the disk and the PDFs you pointed out, I am happy. Thank you very much. (I hope I have replied to everyone correctly. I am new to this.) My thanks to everyone.
