3 attempts to run dufferent Firefox 3.6.13.dmgs failed: corrupt , Why?

On a borrowed iMac running OSX 10.2, in Safari/Yahoo, I select Comcast.net to read my email. Yahoo encourages me to upgrade to Firefox 3.6; after downloading it 3 separate times I have been unable to run the .dmg file because they are all corrupted. What to do? I have managed to get the icon into my applications file and into the Dock, but it won't run. What to do?

TonyE - Many thanks for the prompt analysis - after working on the same '05 iMac for 6 years (it just had its final crash) I'm finding adjustments have to be made to get things to run on this '01 Mac. I suspect similar mismatches will continue to keep me from running videos from youtube and other sources.

  • Attempt to run automatic update to LightRoom 5.7 fails with error 1402

    When I opened and started to work in LightRoom 5.6 on my Windows 7 64-bit PC a notification was displayed in a popup alerting me that a newer version, version 5.7 was available and asked me if I wanted to install it.  I clicked yes, and was taken to an Adobe page to download the upgrade.  So far, so good.  The 976MB “Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_7.exe” file successfully downloaded.  Sadly, when I attempted to run this exe, it failed to complete, displaying the following error message in a popup.
    Error 1402.Could not open key:
    UNKNOWN\Components\139C3899EB73E6C3DA23B8E687

    that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    While the exe file provided by Adobe did not harm my existing LR 5.6 installation, I “think” I would like to install their Automatic Update, but am unable to do so.

    Hi psale,
    Try to right click on the installer, and choose Run as Administrator.
    See if that helps.
    Otherwise this looks like a permissions issue, perhaps you don't have write access to your registry?
    Try creating a new admin user, and see if you can complete the install successfully there: Create a user account - Windows Help
    Hope this helps,

  • Extraction of Firefox 4.0 setup.EXE failed - corrupt file- what to do now?

    I downloaded this setup file and when I tried to run it from my downloads window, the extraction failed due to it being a corrupt file. Is there another source for this file as well as the other file in the Firefox 4.0 English US folder?

    I'm on Win7 and can't update from FF20 to 21. Extraction of setup file says it is corrupt.

  • I'm trying to update to Firefox 4.0 on an IMac 10.2.8 but get error: Firefox 4.0 Beta11.dmg failed to mount due to error 95. (no mountable file system). Can someone help?

    No details. This is the only message I get every time I try to upgrade.

    To use Firefox 4 you need at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
    The last version of Firefox that works on OS X 10.2.8 is Firefox 2.0.0.20 available from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/

  • How do I clear something running on Firefox which is compromising security by asking for all passwords on bank sites etc.

    I believe I've got some kind of spy ware or malware running in Firefox
    If I log into my Sainsburys Bank site and enter my user name and password I should be directed to a new page asking for one of 4 possible passwords before I can access my account. However after a slow connection I am asked to give ALL 4 of the passwords so something is not right as confirmed by Sainsburys.
    Last night I un installed Firefox then re installed and it worked okay but this morning the same problem has occured.
    Can you please advise a solution .
    Yours EJH

    Do you have a secure connection to your bank site?<br />
    If that is the case then check the certificates to make sure that you are connected to your bank site.<br />
    If you do not have a secure connection with your bank site then try to change the protocol from http: to https: in the location bar while visiting the home page of your bank and verify again by clicking the website favicon.
    See [[Site Identity Button]]
    If it is a phishing attempt then you should contact your bank site and inform them about that.
    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • I get this error message quite frequently:: (TypeError: attempt to run compile-and-go script on a cleared scope) what does it mean and how do I stop it?

    I get this error message quite frequently:: (TypeError: attempt to run compile-and-go script on a cleared scope) what does it mean and how do I stop it? It doesn't happen always but it is often.

    Ever since the 6.0.2 update - every single day there's been something new going horribly wrong. For the past couples weeks it has been the browser hanging or crashing for no apparent reason and now this error hitting the browser screen over and over a hundred times a minute. I've used firefox since it began and NEVER had any issues previously. This 6.0 upgrade is a downgrade and is making me seriously look at Chrome (never IE - why I switched to firefox), though making the switch will be a pain due to all the apps I rely on and thousands of bookmarks that would need to be transported. Please mozilla fix this because using this browser has suddenly gone from seamless to frustrating pretty much overnight!

  • When I am listening to the radio (streaming through itunes) my macbook pro will log me out, quitting all the applications I have running (often firefox, word processing, itunes, etc). Why?

    When I am listening to the radio (streaming through itunes) my macbook pro will log me out, quitting all the applications I have running (often firefox, word processing, itunes, etc). Why?
    It's very frustrating and I don't understand why it happens. It might happen other times, but I notice it the most when I'm streaming the radio through itunes, though I think it's also happened when I'm streaming music or shows from NPR, so I don't actually know if it's an itunes thing, or an internet thing? Or just my computer being stupid?  But how can I fix it?
    Thanks!

    My best guess at this point is a problem wwith 10.5.8
    It seems clear to me that sometimes, seemingly randomly, software will access the video card (flash player, quicktime, Safari's HTML5 video player, etc) and it will cause a freeze and then log out.
    However - it could just be video card + processor under load.
    This didnt happen before 10.5.8 and I'm thinking it's not the new 27" display causing the issue.
    I'm going to attempt to find time to revert back to 10.5.0 and then combo update back up to 10.5.7 which may be difficult as our IT is remote and we don't have access to Snow Leopard discs.
    I may just have to bring my own in.

  • Web-based apps that require Silverlight won't run in Firefox even though the latest version of Silverlight is installed.

    I am running Windows 7 SP1, Firefox 11, and have MS Silverlight v5.0.61118.0 installed along with the Silverlight Plug-In 5.0.61118.0 enabled.
    The problem is I cannot get certain apps to run in Firefox that require MS Silverlight. I keep getting the prompt to install. If I click to install, I'm told the the version of Microsoft Silverlight I'm attempting to install is already installed.
    What more can I do?

  • Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped

    Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. My laptop is new and has plenty of RAM and HDD. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped working and does not work when I re-load Firefox 3.6. Also IE8 now works very slowly and does not locate major websites like Microsoft without a 'can't find the website message' and having to pressing Return a second time. When I do get to the Mozilla website and click on the button to try to download Firefox 3.6.6, I get this message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find mozilla3.snt.utwente.nl". Can you help with what has gone wrong? As it stands, I can't use Firefox at all. Note: because Firefox did not work after the upgrade, I've downloaded the IE8 version of the Adobe Flash 10.1. What I really want is to be able to use both Firefox and IE8. But is this possible if they use different versions of Adobe Flash?

    I have been having the same problem as the original poster. After upgrading to Ffx 3.6.6, the program asks you to upgrade to Flash Player Plugin 10.1. I download and installed 10.1 only to find videos weren't loading.
    In my case, the problem is the previous installation of Flash Player (9.0.47) was somehow messing things up. To fix this, because I already had Flash plugin 10.1 installed I had to uninstall 10.1 using the uninstaller from adobe and then manually remove any files related the old flash player plugin 9.0.47
    Here is a run-down of my process:
    0. To check if you have a previous installation of the Flash Plugin lurking around, in Firefox go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins (tab). At this point you may seen both Flash plugins.
    1. Proceed to uninstall Flash Plugin 10.1. Adobe provides an uninstaller here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    ( you have to make sure you have nothing running when you execute the installer).
    2. On my Mac (sorry I don't know what it is in Windows) I searched the hard drive for any files/folders with "Shockwave". I found a folder called "Shockwave 10". It wasn't removed by Adobe's uninstaller. For safety I deleted it and then emptied the trash.
    3. I then went to My HD -> Library -> Internet Plugins.
    Remove the file and folder named "Flash player.old"
    4. Restarted; ran the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installer. Restarted again.
    5. Opened up ffx and double checked the plugins list (see step 1). Version 10.1 is installed and available. Went to problem sites to test it out and Success!
    Hope this helps.

  • When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running but not responding and I can't run another Firefox at the same time. I uninstalled and reinstalled. No change. Tried various other suggestions. Help!!

    When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running, but not responding and that I should close it before trying to run another Firefox. But I cannot find a way to close Firefox program that is not running as far as I can see. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but that did not work. I've tried various other things, but no luck. I thought programs should stop when the computer is turned off, but that didn't work either.

  • "A script is already running" while attempting to run more than one item

    We upgrade recently to ODT 11.2.0.3.20. Since then, attempting to run more than one item from the Solution Explorer (by selecting the items, right-clicking, and selecting "Run") results in a popup error of "Oracle Developer Tools. A script is already running". If many items are selected it results in many error messages and only a random few of the items are actually executed on the server. Also, choosing "Run On" now results in it prompting for the target database for each item selected (rather than once for all items selected like it used to). This all used to work fine in the earlier release we were using. Has anyone else run into this? Any fixes? We used to use multi-select and "Run" or "Run On" to deploy multiple items at once, but this no longer works -- doing one at a time works, but if you have hundreds of items to run, this quickly becomes unusable.
    Thanks for any insight.

    I don't believe that the intention was for you to be able to run a bunch of scripts one after the other. Often there are dependencies between scripts anyway and so you you have to order them. Because we're generally deploying a large set of stored procedures (and not just one-time scripts) the order doesn't really matter -- even if a stored procedure gets created before one it depends on, once all the SPs are on the server, the ones that are "invalid" will compile correctly once you execute them.
    I think a lot of people are creating master scripts that references child scripts using the "@" sql plus syntax.... have you tried that?
    I'll give that a try as a work around. Only issue I have with that solution is every time we add or remove something from the solution, we also have to update the script.
    We are doing a lot of enhancements to our script generation in the coming year. Keep an eye out for a beta to test.
    Like I said, this used to work fine in the older versions of ODT. It seems like the new version is attempting to execute multiple items at once on the same connection simultaneously, thus resulting in the "A script is already running" error. The old version used to be smart enough to execute them one at a time -- so something changed in a more recent version to completely break "Run" and "Run On" when you have more than one item highlighted (even just highlighting 2 items and choosing "Run" runs the first item, but then gives the error for the second item).
