Add-ons Manager Says Java Needs Update, But Latest Version Already Installed

I have Java version SE7 U51 10.51.2.13 installed and working fine. Today I "upgraded" to FF 28.0. Now the Add-Ons Manager says Java is out-of-date, but when I go to the Java website, this is the very latest version available. I downloaded both the 32- and 64-bit versions anyway (though I had already installed them a month ago) and re-installed both. The FF Add-Ons Manager still has same warning: "Vulnerable- Update Now!" The Java Test page says I have the latest version, and it works.
So what the heck to do?

Never mind- found the answer. It's the same old silly runaround between Firefox and Oracle. The Firefox link send you to the wrong Java version (outdated) and you have to find the correct Oracle webpage that now has Java version 8 (actually v.1.8.0 plug in 11.0.2.132) and download and install THAT. It would be nice if this were simpler...

  • I can't update my 3gs iPhone through itunes as it says I need to download latest versions which I've done so I'm in a loop. I'm using a Macbook Pro 10.5.8

    I can't update my 3gs iPhone through itunes as it says I need to download latest versions which I've done so I'm in a loop. I'm using a Macbook Pro 10.5.8

    Ahhh, the mysteries of software updating...glad it is working for you now.  Sometimes you just have to be persistent until iTunes figures out you aren't going to go away.
    So, are you now updating the iPhone to iOS 5.0.1?
    If you already have 5.0 and a wireless connection you don't need to use iTunes to update to 5.0.1...the wireless update only means a file of about 38 MB, while via iTunes it is the entire iOS and about 730 MB...big time difference.
    Hope all goes well for you.

  • "check for updates" in add-ons manager says no updates available. But the plug-in check website says flash is outdated. Why?

    Add-on manager's check for updates is broken.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1. If you want those asss you need a newer model iPod
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • Desktop Manager Says Phone Needs Update

    I have Desktop Manager 5.0.1 installed on a Windows 7 x64 system.  The phone is plugged in and it says it needs a core update run on the phone.  I am running 5.0.0.328 on Verizon.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    lol, love that **bleep**. Is that like an alien? j/k
    Verizon could be pusing an update, I doubt it, yet.
    If you have upgraded the BBMessenger to v5, it likely sees the BBM 4.7 as being the update or something, which has been a glitch for some users. If that is the case, you could simply hit cancel and ignore it.
    Otherwise, run the update and see what you get?

  • WLM Not playing videos, says I need Flash, but I have it installed

    Okay, I originally had a topic going in Microsoft Tech Support, and was told to come here, so I'll copy my original post there.
    Which version of Windows Live Messenger are you using ?
    Version 2011 (15.4.3538.513)
    Choose your Operating System version :
    Windows 7
    Choose your firewall manufacturer :
    Windows Firewall
    Are you connected through a router ? If yes, did you try bypassing the router ?
    Yes
    Additional Details
    Okay, since I bought and installed this version of Windows I have been having a problem with WLM, which has just now gotten to the point where it is becoming a hassle. Whenever I send or am sent a video link I will get an error that says "To send or receive Windows Live Messenger content, you need a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. Once Adobve Flash Player has been installed, you may need to exit or restart Windows Live Messenger," which is followed by a link to where I can download Flash. The link, http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/activex/?installer=Flash_Player_10_for_Windows_I nternet_Explorer however, is dead. At various times in the past I have attempted to solve this on my own. In brief, what I have done is as follows:
    Uninstall and reinstall Flash
    Uninstall and reinstall WLM
    Roll back to previous versions of Adobe
    Updating a pre-existing installation
    Reinstall all drivers
    Reinstall Windows
    thirty minute Prime95 torture test
    Fresh installations of WLM with and without MSN+ and Mess installed separately and individually, and in differing orders
    Manual and automatic registry integrity checks.
    Avast Anti-Virus on and off
    Windows Firewall on and off
    Comodo Firewall on, off, and at all security levels (I installed this after I had tested Windows Firewall, it is currently uninstalled)
    Connected through different routers and directly into the modem
    Adobe stress test
    Verified Adobe Flash installation integrity twice
    After all of this I still get the same error whenever a video link appears in a conversation.
    The last post, which lead me here, was this:
    Please check how many Adobe flash player you have installed and what version/s are they. To check please access Programs and Features located at Programs under Control Panel. You should at least have 2 listed ( Active x and plugin ). 
    Also it is possible that installed flash player is corrupted. Kindly uninstall then reinstall Adobe flash player installation in your computer. For steps in uninstalling flash player, please click on the link below:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    If issue still persists, it would be advisable that you contact Adobe support for proper assistance. I recommend that you install flash player thru Internet Explorer. Also please test flash player intalled by going to websites which requires a flash player to view contents such as youtube.com or adobe website itself.  If flash player doesnt work on these websites then the problem is with flash player, not with Live Messenger.
    All posts in between the first and last have been similarly unhelpful, and I was quickly escalated to "Experts" and didn't hear anything for two months. Now I was told to come here, so here I am. I am using the latest version of Flash, and as my original post stated, I have installed it, it is not corrupt, it works on everything and anything except WLM.
    I have searched Google, Microsoft Tech, and Adobe tech previously. None of the proposed solutions have solved my problem, and as you can probably tell from my list of solutions, my own research became quite disparate as I neared my wit's end. Any help at this point would be greatly appreciated.
    And yes, I checked for multiply installations of Flash Player as he suggested, even though I knew I only had one. And I have also installed it with every browser I could find.

    IE9 displays that page and every other page with Flash content correctly. I can start a Flash program directly on my desktop and run it using Flash. My personal assumption was that WLM is pointing to a place that doesn't exist, but I have a friend with a very similar setup, and his WLM is fine. Odder is that on my old computer running Vista I had installed the Seven Transformation Pack from windowsxlive and could watch videos on WLM even though Vista didn't have that capability before. It is only upon installing Windows 7 on this computer that I have had any problems.
    I have considered that this is a bad copy of Windows 7, but everything else works perfectly, and I would have had to have installed a corrupted WLM application half a dozen times to still have this error if that were the case.
    WLM is a 32-bit program, installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Messenger

  • Plugin Check Indicates Google Talk Version 2.7.5.6365 needs update, but no link to install

    Using the Plugin Check in Add-on Manager lists the subject Google plugin as "Outdated Version" as an Outdated Version but the Update button has no embedded link to download or install an update (the button is non-functional).
