Ancestry have told me they do not support Firefox 4. There is an issue with their magnifier when viewing documents. Findmypast DjVu viewer is also difficult.

When the magnifier in Ancestry's document viewer is used (for example to view one small part of a Census image at a larger magnification), it is impossible to remove the cursor from the image without CTRL-ALT-DEL, which releases it instantly.
Findmypast cannot move from one image to the next without crashing.
They have both suggested I use IE7 or 8, or return to Firefox 3.6
Would it be better to return to version 3.6 while major sites become compliant? Should point out that Ancestry doesn't support IE8 yet, either, doesn't seem interested in keeping up. Is there anything Mozilla can do?

As it is just for one site, you can install the portable version of Firefox 3.6 on your hard drive and use that to access Ancestry, and use Firefox 4 for the rest of your browsing.
You can download the portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable - Firefox 3.6 is listed in the legacy versions section near the bottom of the page. When you run the installer just specify a location on your hard drive.

    I am frequently unable to join the internet or, if I can, it is exceptionally slow. The ISP says nothing is wrong ontheir end.  Are there any compatibility issues with any ISPs when using Time Capsule and/or iMacs?

    Tried this several times to no avail.  I believe it is the ISP causing the problem...Time Warner.

  • No audio-manufacture does not support firefox-won't help me

    after several years with Firefox I lost my audio and when I phoned for support from the manufacturer (Toshiba) they said they do not support Firefox. I have to use internet explorer. I can get audio when I do that but I preferred Firefox.

    I do not think that I am in private browsing mode. There is not a note in the top blue bar indicating that I am, and under Tools, the "Stop Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P" option is grayed so I can't chose it. I also cannot use the keyboard shortcut that it indicates. All of these factors lead me to believe that I am not in private browsing mode.

  • I have Windows 7, and I am being told that it does not support the newest Ai Illustrator, Are there any other alternate routes I can take to get adobe illustrator and photoshop on my computer? Perhaps an earlier version? Thanks! ~

    houseofrest,
    According to this page, you can use it for CC:
    Adobe Illustrator CC for Mac, Windows, PC - Tech specs
    Or you can buy CS6:

  • What will Apple do after they do not support iPhoto?  Will photo stream be eliminated?  I will no longer be able to use aperture, so have signed on with LR & PS.

    What will Apple do after they do not support iPhoto?  Will photo stream be eliminated?  I will no longer be able to use aperture, so have signed on with LR & PS.

    Just because Apple will no longer support IPhoto or Aperture doesn't mean that the versions that are still out there still won't work, function or still do what it is designed to do.
    I do not like all of this offsite, Cloud service storage, anyways. I rather have easy, trouble free access to all of my data locally.
    I am still planning on using the current versions of IPhoto and Aperture as I am not moving any time soon to Yosemite or any newer OS versions based on it. I still use a lot of legacy software that I simply can't afford to upgrade any farther.
    Plus, I use other photo book sites other than Apple's own service, anyways, because these other services offer more products and are far more flexible than Apple's own print services.

  • FF 3.6.3 will not install zynga poker game bar on FB and I read on FB they do not support FF with plugin (do I have plugin)

    Does firefox 3.6.3 have a plug-in? I read in Facebook that they do not support FF plugins. Firefox is my default browser. I also have IE7 to use when I need to. I tried to install Zynga game bar in IE 7 and it worked. There must be some little thing I am missing with getting Firefox to install game bar. I had no struggle to install in IE 7 - it went smoothly. I want to have this on FF browser as it is my favourite.

  • How can I get GV and HDV files imported to Premier Elements 13. I know now that they are not supported. But does it exist ways to get them. I use camera HDR-HS7E?

    What is this HDR-HS7E - a miniDV camcorder that lets you do DV and HDV capture firewire?
    True, the DV and HDV capture firewire into the Premiere Elements 13 Capture window is gone. But, have you
    looked at the workaround suggested by PRE_help in this forum. The workaround is found in the following
    Adobe document....

    I appreciate your repsonse, but the irony is that Apple is still scheduling "One-to-One" & Joint Venture training on iWeb knowing that it all will end next June. ..
    Just to add this : iWeb -- the app itself -- is still supported,updated only months ago and as part of the ilife '11 DVDs still widely spread even though it is not sold on the AppStore it is official part of iLife. It runs in Lion and there is zero issues with the app. So a training makes sense, doesn't it ?.

  • Hi ! How to identify a 2.0 usb on the Mac mini because I was told that they are not all 2.0

    Someone knows how to identify the usb 2.0 on a mac mini because I use the mini just for music and I have been told that they are not all 2.0.

    Actually, you can have a mixture of USB2.0 and USB 3.0 devices on the 2012 Mini's. USB3.0 devices will operate at 3.0 speed and USB2.0 devices will operate at 2.0 speed. It all depends which device is plugged in first not the slowest speed device. So, if a USB3.0 device is plugged in first, it will use SuperSpeed and USB2.0 devices will use High-Speed. If a USB2.0 device is plugged in first, ALL devices (3.0 and 2.0) will operate at High-Speed (USB2.0).
    In the System Information under USB there are two types of USB hubs. One is USB High-Speed Bus which will show the USB2.0 devices. Another is USB SuperSpeed Bus which shows the USB3.0 devices. You can see your devices under each Bus.
    Below is from this Apple Link:
    How do I get the best performance from the USB 3 ports?
    The first device you plug in will configure the port, so always connect USB 3 capable hubs or devices first.
    What happens if I plug in a USB 2 device into the USB 3 port first?
    If you plug in a USB 2 hub first, all devices connected or "daisy-chained" to that hub will operate up to the maximum transfer rate of USB 2 speed (480 Mbps).

  • Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still us

    Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
    Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

    You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
    1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
    2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

  • I have my iphone activated and working since 3days, i purchased it from ebay with 1year warranty, when i check the serial number from Apple store at Bangalore Forum mall, they say that it does not show anything and 'OUT OF WARRANTY'.

    I have my iphone4 activated and working since 3days, i purchased it from ebay with 1year warranty, when i check the serial number from Apple store at Bangalore Forum mall, they say that it does not show anything and 'OUT OF WARRANTY'.
    Now i have a problem in it, all icons just shake and system hangs, needs restarting.

    You need to go back to the person you bought it from. Sounds like they may have sold you phone that is not as described.
    Did you check the warranty status before purchasing it?
