After I download the files to update Firefox to latest version, no "install now" button ever appears.

I'm running Windows 2000 on an IBM ThinkPad that's so old. But, Firefox & other programs have always run just fine. I keep getting the window suggesting that I update to the latest version & I click download now. Soon it shows download complete & I guess I'm just expecting an "install now" window to appear. That never happens. So, I don't think I'm actually ever getting the update installed, only downloaded...

  • After update FireFox to latest version 22.0, once I turn on firebug, all the opening firefox browswer will hang and respond slowly. Please help.

    Previously Firebug is working perfectly with FireFox and it helps a lot on web development.
    But few times of FireFox updates, once turn on the FireBug, FireFox will always hang, slow response, for example, clicking one button or one URL link on web page, it will take around 3 seconds only response. Click the scroll bar to scroll the page, the page will only scrolled after few seconds. The loading image on the tab will also hang and not circling.
    Once turn off the Firebug, everything working fine.
    It will be FireFox update having problems or the FireBug not compatible with the updated version of FireFox?
    Try to search the updates for FireBug but it's the latest version.
    Try to disable all the add-ons, plug-ins, not solving issue.

    Hello,
    Go to about:config and try turning off javascript.options.strict .
    Firebug is known to be very intense on Ram, try turning it off when you don't need to use it.
    Hope this helps!

  • When attempting to update firefox to latest version, get the error "failed unkown reason" any ideas?

    Try to update to latest version as current version of firefox is almost constantly coming up saying "not responding" in upper taskbar, I figure that the update may help this but when I go to update it fails for unkown reasons. Any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated as i now have to triple click things, on click to begin the freezing process, one to enter "not responding" process then finally once that finished freezing one more time to actually get where I want to go

    If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.<br />
    You may need to remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I cant download the file to get firefox it says my settings wont allow it help please!!!

    i try to click the link but it says it cant download it because of my internet settings. how do i change them????

    One work around is, if the Kindle app allows, make a screen cap of the page and print that.
    Hold down the sleep and home keys and relase them together....kinda like you'd press the shutter of a camera, a joint quick down and up
    You'll see a white flash and hear a shutter sound. Then look in your photos app and you'll see the images. You can print them just like you'd print a photo.

  • How do I do to update? Whats the next step after downloading the files ?

    I have a Acer Aspire one with Linux from the beginning. I want to update Firefox because for example Youtube does not support it anylonger. I can download the files for updating, but then? What shall I do with the files?
    I am Swedish so if anyone in Sweden can explain it is maybe better.
    Best regards

    Chances are that old version of Fedora from 2008 won't support the newest versions of Firefox. Check the system requirements for the two versions which are currently supported. <br />
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/ <br />
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6/system-requirements/
    If you don't understand the requirements for Linux on those pages, try the Acer - Linux forums for help or a Linux forum, to find out what the latest version of Firefox that will work on that older operating system. I had a similar situation with my ASUS EeePC 900 netbook a few years ago, and ended up installing a much newer version of Ubuntu called Easy Peasy, so that I could install a new version of Firefox. I was stuck with a Firefox 2.0.0.x version myself.

  • The green forward and back arrows under File and Edit disappeared after I downloaded the new Firefox Toolbar. How do get them back?

    The green arrows for page forward or back at the top left under File and Edit disappeared after I downloaded the new Firefox toolbar (for 3.6) and were replaced by Most Visited, Getting Started and Latest headlines Icons, which I have little use for. How do I get the Original Toolbar back?

    Is the Navigation Toolbar not being displayed? See below.
    <u>'''Can't see the Menu Bar'''</u> (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)?
    Turning the Menu Bar on and off is a new feature in version 3.6.
    ''(~~red:Linux & OSX see~~: [[Menu bar is missing]] )''
    <u>''Windows'' Method 1.</u> '''''Hold down''''' the key and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M then release the key
    <u>''Windows'' Method 2.</u> Tap the F10 key, while the Menu bar is visible, choose "View > Toolbars", click "Menu Bar" so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
    <u>''Windows'' Method 3.</u> Tap and release the key. The Menu Bar will be displayed; then choose ~~red:V~~iew > ~~red:T~~oolbars and click on ~~red:M~~enu Bar so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
    The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again using View > Toolbars. Check mark = displayed, NO check mark = not displayed.

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

    Hi Josephineapo,
    If you are trying to update your iPhone over-the-air rather than through iTunes, and you are having issues with installing it, then I'd like you to please follow the steps outlined below.
    If you get a message that "an error occurred downloading iOS," try again later. If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.
    Update does not complete
    If you're installing the update and the progress bar appears to move slowly, be patient. The time an update takes depends on the size of the update and the number of files on the device.
    When you're updating over the air, keep your device connected to a power source so that it doesn't run out of power. If your device does run out of power, connect it to a power source and turn on the device to let the update or restore complete.
    If the update never completes and the progress bar hasn't moved for an extended time, try restarting your device. If you still see the issue after you restart, see what to do if your device appears frozen or won't start.

    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • After downloading and installing 3.6.11 latest Firefox version, cannot conect to the web. Found old 3.0 version, re-install, back on the internet. What was wrong?

    After downloading and installing 3.6.11 latest Firefox version, cannot conect to the web. Found old 3.0 version, re-install, back on the internet. What was wrong?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.
