Can I try out FF4 while continuing to use FF3?

I look at the forum and see all sorts of problems being talked about when people make the switch from FF3 to FF4, and I don't want the aggravation. So I'd like to try out FF4 and work my way into it while still being able to use FF3 which I know works well and doesn't give me any hassles.
I'm afraid that if I install FF4 then I'll no longer be able to use FF3 and I will have to fiddle with FF4 for days and days to get it to work properly, and during that switch-over period I won't be able to access the internet as easily as I can now with FF3, and will lose valuable time and get frustrated and wish I hadn't made the switch in the first place. I've had that problem in the past when upgrading an earlier version of FF and it was very frustrating indeed.
So to put the question again, can I install FF4, but be able to continue using FF3 while getting FF4 configured and fine-tuned with all the features, layout etc. that I want (a process which, in my experience, always takes more time than one would have thought)?

@ ocertain I lasted about a month with the FF4 & tonight I couldn't take it any longer I went back to FF 3.6.16.. Prior to making the change back I did take some of supports suggestions to make 4 look like 3 but they were just bandages on a cut to try & stop the bleeding in the end the cut was still there..
I found that FF4 was like having IE & if I wanted to use IE I would have.. I don't know who designed FF4 but if you're going to upgrade something you have to remember the operative word is 'upgrade' so making it worse was the wrong direction..
As a former systems analyst I found FF4 a disaster in response & in visual appearance, so I wonder how many end users were in the testing group for this product & how much negative testing they did before they released it ?
They can send me an alert when the soup is cooked & ready to eat until then I will stay with FF3..

HT1311 How can I find out, what Apple ID was used for an App I recently purchased?

I have several Apple IDs and used one of these to purchase Apple Pages. Now I'd like to use the same Apple ID to complete another purchase but just can't figure out what Apple ID I used last time...

The apps in the Apps section of your computer's iTunes library will show all of the apps that you downloaded on it and/or copied form your devices. But if I select one of the apps in the Apps section (in my library in iTunes, not Finder) in there and do get-info, then on the bottom half of the Summary tab on the popup that you I get I see :

NEED HELP: Where can I try out the iOS SDK in Melbourne, Australia?

hey guys, i'd love to try developing for the iOS SDK and from what i can tell the only way i'll know if i can develop for it is actually doing it myself. i've been reading books about it, but i feel like this just isn't enough. the only problem is, i don't have a Mac and i'd rather not buy one just in case the SDK isn't for me because then i would have bought the Mac for no reason.
there are a couple Apple retail stores near me, but i've never been into one before. does anyone know if they'll be able to help me out by allowing me 20-30 minutes to try out the SDK? i don't mind paying.
thanks guys, i'd appreciate any help.

Walk in to the store and ask. In general, Apple Store employees are told to display a helpful attitude towards (possible) clients.
If they don't have a Mac with the SDK already installed, you might want to come back later until the local Genius is done downloading and installing it.

I just installed ios8 on my ipad3 and now I can't exit out of the last search using Safari and Google search

I Installed ios8 then iOS 8.02 on iPad 3. Now when I use Safari and Google search I can't exit out of the last site visited. It seems that all the sites are saved. Help. When I go to use Safari the next time the last site visited is always there. I want to be able exit those sites every time exit from Safari

Safari works a little differently in that respect on iOS 8 on the iPad than it did before. To exit the last site used, tap the icon that looks like 2 overlapping pages at the top right of the screen and then tap the x at the top left of the smaller display that appears.

I want to install and try out FF8 while keeping FF3.6

I have tried this with earlier updates of FF but got into a real mess because my one extension (OpenBook) didn't work with the update, so I tried to go back to the previous version of FF and had to go to a lot of trouble trying to get OpenBook to work again with the previous version (I use OpenBook to get a larger-than-standard bookmark list window when I select "bookmark this page").
So, can I install FF8 and give it a try while retaining FF3.6 so that if I don't like FF8 I can simply trash it and get back to my tried and trusty (and hopefully unchanged) 3.6?

Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

Can't 'Create Saved Book' and continue to use Quick Collection to update book?

I was creating a book in LR4.1 using a Quick Collection. After getting pretty far into my book and being content with my progress, I clicked 'Create Saved Book'. Now I found that I couldn't access the Quick Collection I was using to continue updating my book. I could only access one or the other (the saved book at it's current incomplete state OR the Quick Collection with a blank book layout). What did I do wrong??

The saved book is now a new collection, with a book-icon in front. You add more images by adding them (e.g. via drag and drop) to this new collection in library module.
While selected you switch over to book module and can continue to add pages and fill them with the newly added images.
You might run into another bug though, by which you will have lost your entire layout, but the filmstrip still claims the number how often an image was placed into the lost layout.
If you are working on a book be sure to create a backup of your catalog every time you exit LR as this might be your only way to retrieve at least an older status of your book.
Copy-paste text into text boxes in book module has been reported to trigger the bug rather often.
Good luck,
Cornelia

Can Viruses on Windows Run While I am Using OSX

Hi,
Today I ran a Clamxav virus scan on my windows bootcamp partition while using my normal OSX operating system. The scan detected a Trojan.agent in the official google chrome (downloaded from google.com) and a Trojan in the official steam app (both on windows). And then I suddenly remembered one of the reasons I switched to mac D: .
Suddenly in my time of need my mac crashes on me in my time of need, possibly because of a memory shortage as the activity monitor when I last checked it said that my scan (that was still running) was apparently using 96% of my memory. Anyway now it's crashed and my whole mac has become unresponsive. I don't want to shut my computer down manually incase if any of my files get corrupted because of the scan being force shut down.
So my computer is running on OSX but my question is if any of the viruses on my windows partition can still run and communicate information to their 'master' as there is still a supply of electricity? Sorry if its obvious.
Also here are some bonus questions: 1. How could a trusted source e.g. Google and Steam contain viruses if they are downloaded from the original source? and
2. Can iOS devices get viruses and I know this is probably in the wrong but 3. What anti-virus scanner and remover tool do you recommend for windows. The only one I am familiar with is Kaspersky?
Many thanks

Here's a positive thing: Windows viruses can't run on OS X, but they can be transferred from OS X to other PCs (only if you have them on the OS X volume).

You could get a virus from a different source that infected Steam and Chrome without any problem. Viruses normally try to infect as many files and programmes as possible.

iPhones, iPads and iPods touch can't get viruses but they can transfer them to other PCs. For Windows, I recommend Microsoft Security Essentials
