Can I have two versions of firefox - latest and the older 3.6, which I can only use with Blackboard?

My 8 new Firefox is fine. But I am using the Blackboard online LMS, which has not yet been upgraded for the newer Firefox. I was told Blackboard works fine with the 3.6 firefox. Hence I want to know if I can have both versions of firefox at once on my Windows 7 laptop PC. Or can I only have one version at a time.

Yes - you can either use a portable version of Firefox 3.6 or you can run two profiles. If you search on how to run 2 profiles there are instructions out there.

  • Can I have two versions of firefox at the same time?

    Hi,
    Probably a dumb question but can I have two versions of Firefox on my system at the same time?
    The reason is because of Add Ons that are not compatible with v4. I'd like to be able to close v4 when I need to use an Add On in v3.
    Thanks.

    You can install them both but there are a few steps to take.
    When you install Firefox 4 use the custom installation option and choose a different location to install Firefox.
    In order to use both versions, you need to create a new profile for Firefox 4 (Firefox stores user data in the profile). Using the same profile with different versions can cause problems. Once you create a new profile you can copy certain data such as bookmarks and passwords between them. You can also use Firefox Sync to keep the profiles synchronized. Finally, you will need to set up shortcuts to launch the correct profile for each version.
    The following links show how to do this:

  • Can I have two versions of firefox? i.e. one for work and one for home use?

    Can I have two versions of firefox? i.e. one for work and one for home use. I use Windows xp
    I would like to start fresh with a new firefox for my work only so I can keep my work related bookmarks etc separate from my at home browsing.

    Yes - are you wanting to run 2 profiles on the same machine? See https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles on how to create a new profile. You then just choose which profile you want to use each time you open Firefox.

  • I have two versions of Pr, one is the latest 2014 and when trying to open a Pr2014 session, I get an error message saying the project was saved in a newer version and cannot be opened. Help

    I have two versions of Pr, one is the latest 2014 and when trying to open a Pr2014 session, I get an error message saying the project was saved in a newer version and cannot be opened. Could there be an issue with an older Pr application on the computer? Please help!

    You need to be very careful which project you open in which version.
    For 2014 make sure its on 2014.1 build 81.

  • Ok I have an fully upgraded iPad 2 and the volume button don't work but it do with headphones can someone help

    Ok I have an fully upgraded iPad 2 and the volume button don't work but it do with headphones can someone help. I try to go to settings and the volume won't go up there either I have the home button gesture and still the same. I try resting my iPad and nothing no sound work unless I have my headphones in. Do anybody know how to fix this

    Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I have two versions of my bookmarks under the bookmarks menu

    I have 2 versions of my bookmarks in the bookmarks window - one after the other, but I can only access the first one in "show all bookmarks" Unfortunately, the second one is the one that is being updated when I save new sites. How can I get rid of the first version that shows up when I try to access bookmarks from the bookmarks menu?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • HT1349 I have multiple versions of Outlook installed, and the icloud calendar won't work, how do I correct this?

    I have multiple versions of Outlook installed and icloud won't work, how do I correct this?

    We mananged to resolve this exact issue on a machine recently that was running MS Office Home and Business 2010. However a copy of MS Office 2000 was also installed (for legacy reasons re Access 2000) and it was this causing the issue. We used Programs & Features to 'Change' the Office 2000 installation to 'Add/Remove' features and de-selected Outlook in here. This prompted a reboot and the issue was subsequently fixed.
    Please note this did not remove the Outlook 2010 that was installed (and in use), but be careful to have a backup of your Outlook as your mileage may vary.

  • Have been up for 2 days trying to have two versions of Firefox on the same machine because Princeton Review only supports 2.0 and my laptop upgraded me to 4.o can you please help?

    When I try to access the interactive sites on Princeton Review I politely receive this message:
    Your browser: Firefox 4.0 WinNT | JavaScript supported: Yes | screen size: 1366 X 768 | Flash Version Installed: 10.0 r42 | Supports AJAX:Yes | Click here to test connection speed
    Attention:

    ''Use of your Online Student Center in Firefox 3.0 is not yet supported.''

    IMO, you are better off installing - [http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20P.E.%20Legacy/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Edition%202.0.0.20%20Repack/FirefoxPortableLegacy20_2.0.0.20_English.paf.exe/download Firefox Portable 2.0.0.20] - to your hard drive for the few web sites that are so out of date that they don't support newer versions of Firefox. That way you don't need to fool around with a separate Profile for 2.0.0.20, and there is less chance of a another version / Profile of Firefox getting "contaminated" by that old version or you losing private data if your get the Profiles switched.

  • Hi I am hoping to add my 2 TB time capsule to my existing wireless network using cisco dpq 3925 modem. I have two mbp one running Yosemite and the other os 10.7.5

    I have a time capsule 2TB model 1409. I would like to connect it to my existing wireless network (using a cisco DPQ 3925 modem). I have two mac book pro one running Yosemite and the other OS 10.7.5. The best I can do is to connect the TC to the Modem via ethernet. Have one of my MBP connect to the time capsule using a ethernet cable and have the TB set to bridge mode. In this configuration, both mbp and the iPad can detect the TC but when I try to connect it to the wireless network, using the same network name and password, the light flashes amber and I cannot detect the time capsule again.

    Correct..
    The best I can do is to connect the TC to the Modem via ethernet.
    The TC does not connect to non-apple routers by wireless.. well. It is possible but so poor a method that Apple seem to have eliminated it in the setup wizard.. I would take that as a good thing..
    If you cannot use ethernet you have two choices..
    Use another apple router that is plugged into the Cable modem.. eg a second hand Extreme Gen5 or the latest Express.. the Extreme is both cheaper and better.
    Or you can use a set of EOP (homeplug) adapters.. but they cannot be guaranteed to work so you should buy from a place that allows returns.

  • I have two airports, one quite old and one brand new. Which should be connected to the modem in an extended network?

    I just got a new airport express to extend my wireless network.  It's 802.11(n).  I have an older airport-- I don't know what iteration of the 802.11 standard.
    If I connect them with Ethernet, which should be connected to the modem?  Does that answer change if I have to connect the two airports wirelessly?

    Unless I use the WAN port on the new APE, right?
    Correct. But, if you do this, the question about which device connects where is then already answered....since the "new" AirPort Express must connect to your modem. So, your best wireless performance will occur in the area near the modem. Hopefully, that is where you need the best performance.
    Side note-- the tech specs linked below for the 1st gen, draft-n APE say that it, too, is dual band, although it doesn't actually seem to be.)
    It's confusing since a device can be dual band, but not simultaneous dual band.
    1st Gen AirPort Express (AX) is dual band because it can provide a 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz network. But, it cannot provide both at the same time. It is one or the other.
    The 2nd Gen AirPort Express is simultaneous dual band because it provides both a 2.4 GHz and 5 Ghz signal at the same time.
    1)  Cable Modem --->  Switch ---> Two APE (all ethernet)
    2)  Cable Modem ---> 2nd Gen APE ---> 1st Gen APE  (all ethernet)
    3)  Cable Modem ---> one APE ~~~> other APE (wireless between APE)
    1) Will not work if you have a simple cable modem....one Ethernet port only.
    If your cable "modem" is a modem/router with multiple Ethernet ports, then you could connect both AirPort Express devices back to the modem/router....and you would not need a switch at all unless you need more Ethernet ports for other devices.
    2) would be correct if you have a simple cable modem
    3) If you want to make use of the simultaneous dual band capability of the Express, then that device must be connected directly to the modem. The 1st Gen Express will "extend" one band only.....probably the 2.4 GHz band, since it is stronger.
    If you use the 1st Gen Express connected to the modem, the "new" Express will not extend two bands. It will only extend the band that it "sees" from the 1st Gen Express, so you lose the simultaneous dual band capability of the "new" Express in this type of setup.
    If you "extend"using wireless only, there is typically a bandwidth loss of about 50%, so it is always a compromise in this type of setup.

  • Why do I have two versions of Firefox in my Windows Control Panel? (again)

    hello,
    Updating from Firefox 18.0.1 to 18.0.2 of Firefox has not removed the Mozilla Firefox 18.0.1 entry from the Windows Control Panel list of installed programs.
    How could I fix that?
    thanks.

    It is possible that you only see orphaned Firefox entries in add and remove programs.<br />
    This can happen if the Firefox updater didn't remove the entry of the previous version, but merely added an entry for the new version.<br />
    If you are comfortable with the registry editor then you can remove Firefox entries that no longer apply in this registry key.
    *HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox (????)
    If you have a 64 bit Windows version then inspect this key:
    *HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox
