After upgrading to firefox 12, tried to update flashplayer and it uninstalled itself and won't let me reinstall

It did update Active X but won't let me install flashplayer even after I suspended firewall and anti virus. It says the following http://gatadobe.com/flashplayer/completion/aih/?exitcode=-1
Then the icon disappears from my desktop.

Happy that I was able to help you.

Delete them and then download them from the desired Apple ID. This may require repurchasing paid applications.

I have several Outlook accounts and want to switch between them but Firefox defaults to the main one and won't let me access the others.

Outlook now makes me sign out and sign back in to each of my email accounts. When I try to sign back in, it defaults to the main account and won't let me type in the other email addresses. This only happens in Firefox, both Google and IE leave the email address blank and let me type in the one I want to access. I'd rather use Firefox, but it doesn't let me type in a different email address. Can I fix this?

My iphone4 is not working after I tried to update it and it wont let me restore it?

My husbands iphone 4 is refusing to restore or really do anything since he tried to update it to the new operating system. It just alternates between the apple sign, and the thinking circle. I updated mine on the computer right before he tried so we know its not the computer settings. I updated itunes and went through the trouble shooting guides. It was not connecting with itunes at all so I updated the device connector. Now it will connect sometimes as an unknown iphone but will not let me restore it and says it is a (-1) error. What should I do? Apple support was supposed to call an hour ago and still hasnt called.

I had the same problem, I connected to a different computer that had itunes. It also was oneI never connected to before. I held the power botton and homebutton till it showed up connect to itunes. I opened up it tunes and it said my phone needed a phone software update, i folled the prompt and set it up as a new phone. Then i resored it, then put it on the computer u usually sync it on and restore it to a date the phone was working to, this helped me, if u want i can help u over the phone if u cant get it, let me know and i will send u my number over my email address, hope it works, basically i swiped the phone clean and reinstalled all software by taking these steps

I mistyped a user name to enter a website. I want to correct the error but Firefox saved the incorrect user name and won't let me edit it.

When I signed into a user-name-required website, I made a mistake, but didn't realize my mistake until after I asked firefox to save the sign-in information. Now, all I want to do is edit the username sign-in, but firefox won't allow the edit. What do I do?

After upgrading to firefox 4, many of my userscripts and addons ceased to function.

following that, i downgraded, so i could use them again. i must confess, most of the addons and userscripts in question were for one specific website, specifically, 4chan.org

Solution for my problem: I had simultaneously blocked some items on my page using Adblock Plus. I removed those personal blocks and the page is back to normal.

Trying to update to 6.0.5 but it won't let me unless I use appstore and appstore only has later updates not compatible with my OS. Help?

I recently recorded something on my friends laptop using his Garageband. But then I was trying to transfer it to my computer and it says I need to update to 6.0.5 to be able to open the file. However when I try and update it it gives me this message "The version of GarageBand installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store. Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available." So I went to App Store to update it but the only garageband related thing I could find there was the 10.0.2 update which was too big an update and wouldn't run with my OS anyway. How do I get the 6.0.5 update? Whould I delete Garageband and reinstall using the 6.0.5? Also my OS is 10.7.5 if that helps.

Whould I delete Garageband and reinstall using the 6.0.5? Also my OS is 10.7.5 if that helps.
That will not work. The GarageBand 6.0.5 updater from the Apple Support page is not a full installer. You will need an installer disk for GarageBand '11, for example the boxed iLife '11 disk to install a GarageBand '11 version, that can be updated with that 6.0.5 updater.
So I went to App Store to update it but the only garageband related thing I could find there was the 10.0.2 update
The AppStore should not be showing you the 10.0.2 udpdate, if your system is not compatible. Or have you upgraded to MacOS 10.9.2?

HT1338 I had to remove the final cut program because it crashed my computer and would never stop trying to load a file and when I go to my purchase history it says installed and is inactive and won't let me download it to my computer again??????

I purchased Final Cut Pro Xand I need to reinstall it and it says in the purchase history it was installed and won't let me reinstall??? Do I just lose my 300 dollars?

Hey weaverweao,
Thanks for the question. If you uninstalled the application by dragging it to the trash, you will want to empty the trash before attempting to download again:
OS X Mavericks: Install, update, and uninstall apps
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14299
To uninstall other apps, drag the app to the Trash (located at the end of the Dock), then choose Finder > Empty Trash.
Afterwards, go ahead and restart your computer and attempt to download from your purchase history once more.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Can't get past home page of instructables after upgrading to firefox 13

I can load the home page, but if i click on anything past it, it acts like it continually loads, nothing comes up on the page, it sticks at "Transferring data from www.instructables.com..." or "Read www.instructables.com" it seems to only have happened after upgrading to firefox 13. I have an old version of firefox aurora that came with the tor browser suite and tried instructables on there. worked perfect, and i was going to instructables on a regular basis before the update, so it's gotta be from the update right? what can i do to fix it?
P.S. It's not just the specific URL under "URL of affected site" because none of the pages will load after the home page.

did that solve the issue? i still believe it has more likely to do something with faulty cache (maybe the restart of the browser really triggered it );
if it was an issue with dns prefetching it would be rather strage since you already were on the domain instructables.com & wouldn't have had to resolve the domain for the subsites again. and since the server, your isp or your local hardware might not support ipv6 fully yet, it can always cause some glitches too...

After upgrading to Firefox 36.0.4, it automatically installed noscript

After upgrading to Firefox 36.0.4, it removes all my existing add-on extension.
In addition, "noscript" was automatically installed and there is no way to remove it.
The "noscript" add-on does not show up in any of the add-on extension for me to disable/remove it.
I even tried adding noscript from the add-on so that the noscript add-on shows up in the
firefox extension page so that I could remove it but that does not remove the
original noscript that comes with Firefox 36.0.4
Hopefully there is a way for user to remove this and it is not part of Firefox 36.0.4.
At least allow user the options of using it or remove it.

Thanks Cor-el. This works.

I'm having a potpourri/Hat-Trick of issues after upgrading to Firefox 7.0.1

The only reason I'm asking is because the three new issues occurred immediately after upgrading from the last install of Firefox to the newest release, Firefox 7.0.1
The first: for some reason I have to go to about:config to reset the "Close Tabs" part from 3 to the default 1 setting...which is having a Close Tab "X" on the tab. It means I have to right-click and select the bottom option on the drop down menu to close tabs I'm through with using.
The second: Most of the time Google Videos will not function on 3rd party web sites (Like "Documentary Storm"). I have to redirect to the Google Video webpage to watch Google featured documentaries that have been embedded in some documentary sites.
There are now more frequent error messages of "Not Responding" on websites...the screen locks up for a few seconds before going backwards or forwards (On "The Chive", "The Brigade", and many other picture or video oriented websites.) The scroll bar on the right side of the screen is also locking up which means the "Not Responding" error message is popping up for this also.
All of these are different from each other and at first thought would be issues I need to take up with tech support for the different programs I use. That is my next step, but I was very curious if anybody else was having similiar problems after upgrading to Firefox 7.0.1.
I'm not sure if a couple things might be set off by incompatible Addons. None of the symptoms jive with known incompatibility problems with 7.0.1. and with none of my Addons either. It was just very coincidental things went awry in 3 different areas that had worked 10 minutes previous to the upgrade.
Any ideas or similarity with other folk's upgrade issues?
Thanks tons for any advice given! Hoping it's something ridiculously easy. : /
Oh yeah...all other programs are up to date. Freakishly OCD about keeping current with programs.

Thank you for describing the problems so well. I also have been going nuts trying to restore my Itunes Library to its original (or acceptable) condition. I have a 5th gen 30G Video with about 4250 songs on it. After downloading 7 I found that every song in my Library had been dulplicated or triplicated. Then, a day latr, when I had downloaded album art, I discovered that every other song in any album I had downloaded (from Itunes or my own cd)prior to perhaps version 5 or version 6 could not be found. Luckily, I had an generation 4 Ipod with the original Library and I was able to download that to my external harddrive. I have spending pointless, arduous hours pointing Itunes to the correct file. Its faster to re-download the CD. Of course, I can't do that for any music I had bought from Itunes directly. Its weird because the name of the song is in Itunes, just the file can't be found. And why every other file? When I go into earlier (6 and before)Itunes Libraries, the music files are missing from them. Where did they go? When I try to sync my Ipod with Itunes, it takes forever because Itunes is searching for the missing files. I have tried to ask Apple support directly but I have gotten no response. Very, very frustrating! Any headway with your problems? Lisa

After upgrade to Firefox 6, certain sites can no longer be loaded.

After upgrading from Firefox 5 to FF 6, certain sites will no longer load. These sites both use Typepad and that seems to be where FF6 hangs. Have not had this problem with FF5. Tried clearing cache, deleting bookmarks (to sites that won't load), and typing in address. That doesn't help. Sometimes, the sites load partly (i.e. with only words, no images); other times, load after a long time (several minutes); most often will not load at all.

I've only one hint to you, cause I've mot on Mac-Server.
With 10.7 Apple have switched from Samba (maybe due to licence problems with GPL based stuff) to a own protocol called "XSMB"
This had caused problems with some NAS systems too.
Eventually someone have a glue to solve that, as several users have problems with SMB shares since that.
