Cannot update to new version

I am running linex on an Acer Aspire one. I have tried to update Firefox to version 4 and after sucessfully downloading the file I then couldn't install the update. I have extracted the file from the archiever be still can't work out how to run the update. I am now being advised to update to version 6 which I have tried but without any more sucess. I have checked if my automatic updates are enabled under the edit/preferances/advanced/updates tab but cannot select the firefox box as it is not highlighted.
Any help would be great.
Thanks Paul.

I was having issues in Win 7.  (maybe same, maybe not.  for me, updater was complaining the downloaded file was invalid).
I got around it by installing directly from apple.com, rather than using the updater utility.

  • I cannot update to New version of iPhoto.  Still have older version despite uninstalling application and redownloading it?  any suggestions.  My current version is the 2012 version, but it is not updating to the new version

    I updated to OS X Mavericks.  I updated all of the new iLife applications.  iPhoto is not updating to new version.  I have iPhoto '11. 
    The icon on the dashboard has the new logo, however when I open the application it hasn't updated.  I tried deleting the application and redownloading it.  Still stuck with old version

    I have exactly the same problem as carson.
    iPhoto tells me that I have Version 9.5, and the info-page tells me "iPhoto 11, Version 9.5 (902.7)", and the logo is the new one.
    However, the programme is exactly the same as the old version - not just similar, exactly the same! The screenshots on the apple-website show a dark grey, almost black interface, for example (like the new iMovie). However, my version still shows the old light grey.
    I deleted the iphoto-app entirely (and was horrified to lose all my photos), but that also didn't work out.

    I had deleted my Apps Icon from the phone as I was trying to update the new version iOS4.3.
    However, after deleteing the Icon, I am not able to install the Apps Messenger again because I am not able to use the IOS.4.3 diagnostic password sent via email.
    Installation was rejected because I need the iOS.4.3
    Thanks for your help

    That situation went from inconvenient to complicated quickly.  Wait for any pending orders to drop off, wait for things to clear up, wait till your upgrade comes up and then upgrade when your contract is fulfilled.  I would have suggested a replacement phone, I know, with only a month left why couldn't you just upgrade early, but these situations where people try to upgrade early always end horribly and once a phone order starts, it almost cannot finish until something winds up shipped received and returned.  Sorry this happened the way it did.  Definitely not efficient.

    They are free to iOS 7 users who have activated their NEW device on Sept 1 2013 or after. They are NOT automatically free with iOS 7.
    AirDrop is only compatible with iPad 4th gen and iPad mini. iPad 3rd gen and below do contain the necessary hardware for AirDrop. Also, AirDrop is only compatible between iOS devices. You cannot AirDrop between iOS device and Mac OS.

  • How do I STOP this from updating to NEW VERSION? I am getting tired of uninstalling and reinstalling every 10 uses. Ver.10 is Garbage!!!!!

    how do I STOP this from updating to NEW VERSION? I am getting tired of uninstalling and reinstalling every 10 uses. Ver.10 is Garbage!!!!!
    WHEN it decides to run it does NOT member passwords.
    And besides, if I WANTED NEW I would DOWNLOAD NEW!!!

    This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
    Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    My Airport Card Info. is

    can you teach me how to connect in a WPA personal security?? Please??
    Because our router only has WPA and WPA2 and neither of the settings, after i put in the password, would connect to the internet... It would only gives me an error message "the wireless network (name of the network) does not support the requested encryption method".
    I am also trying to connect this Ibook into the personal hotspot feature of Iphone 4s but it is still not recoginizing the security settings. It will give me the same error....
    Thanks for the message anyways...
    So what is the next upgrade for OS X 10.4.11??

  • I cannot find OS x mavericks 10.9.0 in the app store and I cannot download a newer version because it requires 10.9.0

    I cannot find OS x mavericks 10.9.0 in the app store and I cannot download a newer version because it requires 10.9.0. I have looked everywhere and its really annoying. I know it was taken off the app store when 10.9.10 came out but I need it to get 10.9.4 so I can play Total War Shogun 2. any help to get 10.9.4 would be appreciated. 

    It's no longer available. Unless Apple says otherwise, which they probably won't, you need to upgrade to Yosemite instead.

  • Server version 180 cannot read the newer version 183 of the Repository.

    Hi All,
    We have our BI Server on Linux at version 10.1.3.3.0.070809.0909 and the Adminstration tool at version 10.1.3.3.1.071012.2100 and we are getting the following error.
    "Server version 180 cannot read the newer version 183 of the Repository."
    This is so surprising that a minor version is causing the Repository to be unreadable. Now we have to ensure all our developers are using the precise version of the Administration tool. Just wanted to let you guys know, so that you do not face the same problem.
    Is there some patch available to directly upgrade to 10.1.3.3.2.
    Thanks,
    Neil.

    FYI: We are attempting to downgrade our Repository for now. Let's hope this works.

  • HT1692 After synching, I updated to newer version of iTunes. I do not have contacts on my phone - but I have all the messages and photos there still. How do I find my missing contacts?

    After synching, I updated to newer version of iTunes. I do not have contacts on my phone - but I have all the messages and photos there still. How do I find my missing contacts?

    Still no success.
    My problem, in part, is that I have 2 iphones. I transferred one to another computer that now syncs with iCloud. The other phone I was updating today on my old computer. It was recognised by iTunes, and automatically synched. Then I updated it to a newer version of iTunes, and lost my contacts on that iPhone. I have trawled to Windows Contacts but to no avail.
