"A security and stability update for FF has bee n dnlded & is ready 2 B installed" Update: FF 37.0.2 but 37.0.1 is most recent. What to do????
Rcvd a Firefox "Software Update" which said: "A security and stability update for FF has been downloaded & is ready to be installed" Update: FF 37.0.2
Message has the option to restart now or later. I'm on ver 37.0.1 and FF says it is the MOST RECENT! Is this safe (from Mozilla) or a Scam/Phishing attempt? What to do????
There is a 37.0.2 that came out recently. If you don't trust the installation prompt, cancel it. You can check using the Help menu, About Firefox. Either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > About Firefox
* (menu bar) Help > About Firefox

My Dell laptop (Operating on Windows XP) was hit with multiple viruses - I could not open Mozilla Firefox or any other applications for that matter. After much time and many attempts, I was finally able to install and run an AVG Scan and then an AVG PC Tune up. 4,559 problems found and repaired. After the repairs, I received the following message:
"Software Update - A security and stability update for Firefox is available: Firefox 3.6.18 - It is strongly recommended that you apply this update for Firefox as soon as possible. - an underlined link reading, "View more information about this update" and then 2 choices - "Ask Later" or "Update Firefox." Since part of the problem was with Firefox and some error messages pointed to that, I'm hesitant to click on any of the three options above. Can you help me to get past this error message, please. I am sending this from my home computer. Thank you. DianeSometimes the updater gets in a funny state - Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and download the full installer. Close Firefox and run the installer

I keep receiving the Security and stability update is available for my 3.6.17 version of Firefox but it will not download. What should I do? edit
# Details
BoldItalicThere's no 3.6.18, so there appears to be a glitch in the update checking. Or the message is not really from Firefox (malware site).

I get a notice that says a security and stability update is recommended for Fire Fox 3.6.15. When I click to update a bar appears showing attempt to contact but nothing ever updates.

For weeks now, I get a daily "SOFTWARE UPDATE" pop-up window urging me install a "security and stability update" for Firefox 5.0.1. if I ignore it or click ASK LATER, it comes back. if I click UPDATE FIREFOX, all I get is pinwheel, for hours, with no progress in striped progress bar.
Hello:
First, permission repair is, IMHO, a waste of time. In the old days, we whispered that like some sort of incantation. I have not seen a permission problem in years. The messages, incidentally, are not a concern. Apple has gotten smart with OS X 10.7 and eliminated them.
If you were having problems, running repair DISK from your software install DVD is a good idea.
What updates were to be installed? In any event, trash a preference file (com.apple.softwareupdate.plist) and restart.

Here is what the questionable window looks like:
upper left corner/across and down
ln1 (ff global logo) "Software Update"
ln2 "Update available"
ln3 "A security and stability update for Firefox is available:
ln4 "Firefox 26.0"
ln5 "It is strongly reco'd that you apply this update for FF asap.
ln6 HTML Link "View more info about this update"
ln7 (bottom of window) "ask Later" button and "Update FF" button
While entering this info the window went away!!!
Before it did i could not copy any of the text (do have screen shot however) and the link did not resolve to any web address. Looked like std FF page but NEVER seen anything like it before!
no way i was going to click anything except the close [X] button.
If it is valid, you need to remove the restrictions on it; to make it less suspicious.
If it is bogus, do you have a plugin or addon to intercept such malicious probes?
Currently using FF25.0.1; on xp/sp3
thanks

TS1702 adjusting the security and permissions settings for your device.
I Updated to the ios6, then tried to save a video to the camera roll. The app asked if I would allow it to have access to my photos, and I said "no" and now I can't save any videos made with that app to my camera roll. I contacted the support at vidrythum and they said I had to contact apple and ask how to adjust the security and permissions settings for your device. Any ideas??
thanksWOOHOO!!

"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature and will not install
Anyone has a solution for this??? Any help would be greatly appreciated...oh and by the way, my iPod is not connected when I am trying to update.
ThanksI am trying to update my iTunes on my PC and I keep getting this message after I click the button to install the update ... "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature and will not install
Okay. Rather than using Apple Software Update, let's try updating your iTunes using an installer downloaded from the following location:
Latest iTunes Installer
Does the install using the iTunesSetup.exe from there go through any better? If not, what error message do you get from that? -
"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature.
Hi. Iam trying to update from iTunes 7.3.2.6 to iTunes 7.6.2 but always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed. Can anybody help me wth this?
always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
There is a problem on some XP machines where Apple Software Update for Windows version 2.0.0.21 will always return an invalid signature message when trying to update to ASU 2.1.0.110. Since it tries to do that prior to updating other software, the update of the other software is blocked. (To check what version of ASU you have, launch ASU by going "Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update", and then in ASU go "Help > About Apple Software Update".)
The way around that issue (if that's what you've got) is to update itunes using the link to the iTunes installer that Jefe gave you in his/her post. That iTunes installer will also update your ASU to at least ASU version 2.0.2.92 which should then be able to successfully update itself to ASU 2.1.0.110 next time you run ASU. -
The latest update for iCloud has downloaded, but, will not install, even when tried manually. The QuickTime update which was on the same page was ok though!
I have the same problem....I hope they get arouind to fixing this issue?????????????????

The seller needs to follow this procedure:

If she refuses, then as Tim suggested the iPhone is probably stolen. You'll need to contact your local police department and ask how to proceed.

I HAD TO BUY A NEW HARD DRIVE FOR MY LAPTOP. I AM TRYING TO RE-INSTALL MY ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 12 BUT IT KEEPS SAYING MY SERIAL NUMBER IS INVALID. WHAT DO I DO?
jessicar
Just user to user....based on past and current history, Adobe Tech Support is not going to help you with a technical issue which is preventing you from using your purchased serial number for Photoshop Elements. Version 12 is not the current version. And, the Adobe Tech Support is limited even for the current version which is 13. If this matter involves a purchased activated serial number trapped on a crashed computer while you are trying to install on a 3rd computer, then probably Adobe Chat Activation can be of assistance. If that is the case and you want to explore that possibility, then click on the following link
Contact Customer Care
Photoshop Elements
Adobe ID, Signing In
Adobe ID, Sign In, Account Help
Chat Panel
If the above link does not hold its set, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
Are you getting one of those "too many computers with your serial number" messages? Then the above should apply to your situation.
Before the above consider....
a. For Photoshop Elements technical issues please post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your
question got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum.
b. Have you verified your Photoshop Elements serial number at the Adobe web site (http://www.adobe.com) - after signing in with your
Adobe ID and Password, type My Products in the Search field and follow the path to your product in My Products. Click on Adobe
Photoshop Elements 12 in your list to reveal the serial number.
c. Do the install with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?
Check that the serial you are using is the correct one..
Typically the problem is either you are misreading the serial and therefore typing it in wrong. Check you are correctly entering zeros or O.. and so on....
or...
You bought the LP9 upgrade version.... which requires the LP8 full serial as well.
If it is the LP9 upgrade serial.. (and not the LP9 full serial) you must enter your original LP8 full serial first and then the upgrade serial for LP9.. when it asks for it.
Failing that.. you can obtain a replacement serial from Apple.. using this form.....
