  • Every time I log on it tells me I must update firefox even though I have updated already.

    Although I have updated to the current Mozilla Firefox and also the current Thunderbird download, EACH time I log onto Mozilla, I get a notification for a Firefox Software updater. I am not the only one getting this. My husband is too. This is extremely annoying. I have gone to the homepage and downloaded the current edition so I know I am up to date. How do I get this off? I even tried the option of going to Tools and taking it off the auto update but it still showed up, so I switched it back.

  • I am trying to use screens and it keeps telling me it cannot detect Java even though I have installed and updated Java?  What might be the problem?

    I am trying to use "screenr" and it keeps telling me it cannot detect Java even though I have downloaded and updated Java?  What is going on or what might I do to correct this?
    Thanks

    Firefox needs 32-bit plugins, so you'll need to install 32-bit Java for Firefox.
    No, you can't change Firefox from 32-bt to 64-bit. There is a Nightly 64-bit version (alpha) of Firefox, but it is used only to test for regressions until development is resumed.

    I have older version of itunes on Windows Vista, when i check for updates it states it cannot connect to itunes update server even though i am connected to the internet, i have an iphone that has songs in the cloud and i want to add them to my library?

    Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

  • My 3rd generation iPod nano won't sync because "It cannot be found" even though it will automatically sync when I plug it in.

    Hey,
    My dad and I both own a third generation iPod nano. ever since I updated our iTunes software, neither his nor my iPod will sync because "the correct disk cannot be found" or "ipod cannot be found" even though it will sync automatically when I plug it in. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?
    Thanks

    Try these steps listed below.
    1. Run “c:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc” (i.e. *Device Manager*), and leave it open for now for later use
    2. Start up iTunes
    3. Next, connect your iPod.
    4. Go to your iPod Settings and select the “Enable disk use” option from under theSummary tab.
    5. A dialog box will pop up reminding you that you’ll need to manually eject. Go ahead and hit OK
    6. Hit Apply to save changes to the iPod
    7. Quickly switch to the Device Manager window and right-click on any item within the window and select “Scan for hardware changes”
    8. Finally, switch back to iTunes, and try re-syncing your iPod to see if it helped.
    It might not also hurt to trash your iPod's Photo cache if it has one (i.e. you sync photos to the iPod).  See this article for information on where to find this folder on your Windows XP machine.

  • I cannot update Firefox, my computer is claiming that I need admin permission (everything else updates fine) I am the admin for this computer and I have the password. Any ideas?

    I cannot update Firefox, I've tried disabling firewalls etc. My computer claims that I need admin permission to update Firefox although I am the owner and administrator of this computer. There are updates available and know the admin password for this computer. It started when I installed the Noscript tool (which I have tried disabling with the same results)
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == I installed the Noscript tool

    1. Download either the zipped form (or the portable form) of the latest version of FireFox.
    2. Unzip (or execute the portable version) into a scratch directory. (If using the portable version, find the scratch subdirectory with the same contents as the firefox directory in the "program files" - probably called "firefox". You may have to look for it - it's buried)
    3. Erase the contents of the firefox subdirectory in the Program Files directory,
    4. and copy into "Program Files/firefox" directory the unzipped files (or the files in the portable subdirectory labelled "firefox" - the one that has the set of files and directories just like the ones you erased.).
    It worked for me.

  • I have just purchased an Apple Magic Trackpad. I connected it to my Macbook to test it. Fine. But I want to use it with my IMac - and my IMac cannot discover it - even though it is turned on and the batteries are 100%. Why?

    I have just purchased an Apple Magic Trackpad. I connected it to my Macbook to test it. Fine. But I want to use it with my IMac - and my IMac cannot discover it - even though it is turned on and the batteries are 100%. Why? Can I reconfigure it to the IMac?

    Remove it from the Macbook first. BT devices may only be connected to one thing at a time.

  • I have a Mac 10.5.8, but even though that meets system requirements, firefox is telling me Firefox 4 is incompatible. what gives?

    there are no other details!

    The part you missed is the need for '''Intel''' hardware as you have a PPC. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/8.0/system-requirements/
    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer only the Intel is supported as the PPC was dropped and 64-bit was put in place with the 32-bit version.
    For PPC Macs there is two options. Either you can use the current 3.6.* version from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html which you have.
    Or you can try a third-party version of Firefox 8.0 from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    However do see http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported if you use this version.

  • I'm using outlook email, Firefox 11 and Windows 7 Home but email links do not open Firefox even though it's my default browser, Fix?

    My email links fail to open Firefox 11. They used to last week but IE updated and now links in my outlook emails do not open Firefox 11 even though it's my default browser. When I change to IE as the default the links open IE.
    Your assumptions about my browser, operating system and others are correct.
    VERY FRUSTRATING. HELP, Please

    Hi,
    Please also try this: Windows Control Panel > '''Default Programs''' > '''Associate a file type or protocol with a program''' > look for '''.url''' > '''Change program''' to Firefox.
    edit: You have to restart Outlook or sometimes reboot the system for the change to take effect. Thanks AUnderhill.

  • Cannot update Firefox to 32.0.1

    Hi. I have unsuccessfully attempted to update Firefox to the latest version, both via the prompt when it recognizes that the update is required, and by attempting the same via the "about" menu option. On 4 occassions (yesterday and today), the update fails to complete upon re-opening Firefox saying that there is already an incidence of Firefox running - which there isn't! (Windows Task Manager confirms this).
    Apart from being annoying with the update prompt reappearing every hour or so, short of complete product uninstal and re-instal (necessitating export bookmark, losing cookies, remembered login details, etc), an option which in my books is last resort, what can I do????
    Thanks
    Robert

    hello robert, you have multiple malicious addons present. though they are disabled at the moment, they could nevertheless be a sign that adware/malware is present on your system, which can cause all sorts of troubles.
    please run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Iphoto continues to show up in the Updates folder even though it is installed

    I have the update system telling me on my MacBook Pro that Iphoto needs an upadte even though in the panel it shows it as installed and will not re-install the update.  How do I get rid of this annoying reminder?

    If it's any consolation I've had this happen on one of my machines. It went away after a day or two. If that's not enough for you then contact App Store support. It an App Store issue really, not an iPhoto one.

  • Shockwave Player 12.0.7.148 prompts for an auto update. Even though Auto Update is disabled.

    We have been re-packaging Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0.7.148. Application is prompting to upgrade new version i.e. auto update even though auto update functionality is disabled. Can any one please help in this? When we right click on shockwave frame over an internet page and check the properties, we can see an Autoupdate is supress.
    Thanks for your return.

    Thank you for your reply. Like I said in my post, I have been having this issue since the summer of 2011, when I was still using regular firefox. In fact, I had made the switch to Aurora in the hopes that this would be solved, given the ongoing changes to the update process. Going back to regular Firefox, which seems to be your only suggestion, would therefore not solve my problem, and it would rob me of the opportunity to enjoy and give feedback on other new features.
    In addition, like I said in my original post, I have tried several of the most common ways of dealing with such issues, to no avail. After an extensive search, I also couldn't find anybody else with this bug. That is why I turned to this support forum. If you know of a way this problem could be solved, I would very much appreciate it.
