Deleted tabs on new version install

I wanted to install a new add-on to my 3.6.10 version and was advised that I needed to download an update to 3.7.0
I had Firefix open with several tabs that I was using. I downloaded the beta 4.0 and it would not install.... saying that Firefox was already running.
I opened Task Manager in my Windows XP SP3 and deleted the running Firefox in 'Processes'. When I have done this before, the next time I restart Firefox, I am asked if I want to reopen the tabs as they were.
This time there was no such question and I am now apparently unable to reopen the several tabs that I was working on and I have lost a great deal of valuable work.
AS an idea for the future... could it be possible to save 'sets' of tabs so that when I am working on a project and skipping between web sites.. I can safe the tab set that I have so that I can reinstate it at another time? This is different from the 'Tools/General setting to reinstate the tabs when the browser is reopened...
I am looking to be able to save different sets.. for instance a 'News' set so that I can open my regular News sites first thing in the morning... then get to work on a particular project by recalling another Set... later I may change projects and it would be great to be able to recall another saved 'Set'.
In the meantime, I remain frustrated.!

Be careful with running the Firefox 4.0 version on your Firefox 3.6.x profile. Firefox 4.0 versions can upgrade files to newer version and that can cause problems if you reuse that profile with 3.6.x or update at a later time to 4.0
According to Your More system details list you have Firefox 3.6.12, but your user agent is corrupted.

  • Apple ProRes QuickTime Decoder  - Both types say I have "a newer version installed", but I can't view Pro-Res files on either type of machine.

    I'm trying to view a Pro-Res file from Final Cut Pro on machines that have Quicktime Pro, but having no luck.  I've tried installing the "
    Apple ProRes QuickTime Decoder " for both Windows and Mac (on the correct machines), but I keep getting "You already have a newer version of this installed" on each machine, and can't finish.  Needless to say, the Pro-Res file will not play on either machine, and there seems to be no way to remove a "newer version" and install this one.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Rob,
    There is no quicktime folder there. And no quicktime program is installed when I try to install iTunes. The only reason I tried installing quicktime in standalone was because the itunes install was not actively going to the quicktime part of its installation.
    I've tried removing everything and only installing iTunes. But even after deleting the physical files, using the WIndows Install cleanup tool, and cleaning up my registry, the quicktime portion of the iTunes install doesn't complete, and I keep getting "unknown" errors from the crash prevention program, and from what I can see it's because there's no physical Quicktime program installed.
    As for other accounts, no I cannot start it up with other accounts, I keep getting the "Unknown" error and there is no physical files for quicktime anywhere.
    And selective startup doesn't seem to work as there is NO qttask option when I run selective startup.
    So, I seem to be out of options, and thing else I could try?

  • Can't update quicktime on windows xp. Try to install 7.7.3 and it says I have a newer version installed. I don't of course, I have 7.3.1. Have never been able to update it. Even uninstalling older version it still says a newer version is already installed

    Can't update quicktime on windows xp. I have 7.3.1 and when I try to install 7.7.3 it says I have a newer version already installed??? Even uninstalling the older one, it still says the same thing. I haven't been able to update it since 2007.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up").
    In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When transferring data from my old iMac to a newer one do the old Apple apps like iWorks override the new versions installed on the newer computer?

    When transferring data from an older iMac to a newer iMac (refurbished) do the Apple applications like iWorks replace the ones on the newer  computer?
    I have read how to transfer data and using setup assistant but I am concerned about applications from Apple having the same names.

    As you likely know legacy apps that are PPC based will not migrate over. However the data files will. I would urge you to inventory the apps you have and their data files to see how important they are and then look app by app to see what app replacements are available. If you are using Office for Mac prior to the 2008 version you will need to get a new license of the app because the 2004 version was PPC based. The files will come over and are readable by newer version of Office for Mac (I recommend the 2011 version) and also readable by the iWorks apps (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) but those are different apps than Office and work differently and do not have all of the features of the MS Office apps. This is really only a issue if you share files with MS Office users, if you use them for personal work then iWork may be just fine for your needs.

  • Older version of itunes cant delete from pc new version not installed

    trying to installed latest version iTunes64 1115.exe but older version cannot be remove from pc
    already older version downloaded and try to installed with no sucess.
    pl advice

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • TS1717 Error message appearsn 'This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes'. It tells me new version installed and then does nothing?

    If I delete the current iTunes to reinstall latest version what happens to the music I have downloaded from my own cd collection, do I lose it as I haven't been able to back up my music?

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • New version installed,  XP crashes ; Safe Mode not loading

    Tried to buy new song, iTunes said had to get latest version. Installed latest version, restarted laptop. Connected online and started iTunes. Store said no internet connection. Went to apple.com to trouble shoot. All looked OK. Shut down teh laptop. Started laptop again later, and screen just went black after Windows tried to load. Tried to restart in safe mode, but that wouldn't start either..... just a list of files flashed by kinda like a DOS mode window, but no prompt ...... just hung there.
    Any ideas beside reloading Windows?

  • Old Version Attempts Reinstall After New Version Installed

    Adobe updates are downloaded through SCUP and added to WSUS, and ultimately, Configuration Manager 2007 R3's software update point. All works beautifully. 
    That is, until we deployed Flash Player 11.6.602.168.  The deployment went smoothly to all 18K computers, and we thought all was well.  However, once we successfully deployed the most current version (11.6.602.180), the older version (x.x.x.168) re-appeared through Windows Update for installation.  Because x.x.x.168 is no longer the current version, it no longer applies, and Windows and/or Configuration manager should detect this.
    I am curious about two things:
    1) Has anyone else had this problem?
    2) If so, is there a fix (I'm assuming the problem is in the installable/applicability rules that Adobe shipped with the x.x.x.168 update).
    Thanks!

  • Every time i restart an old version of skype loads even though i have a new version installed

    The old application shows up on my desktop also and no matter how many times i drag it to trash, it comes back up at restart.  So i think that is the problem.

    Try selecting the Skype than needs to be deleted and press "Command+Delete" to skip the trash and instantly delete it. If that does not work then try deleting both and installing a fresh copy.

  • Quicktime says I have a newer version already installed... Not!

    I deleted quicktime and all it's library components because it wouldn't load. I downloaded a new version from apple.com and now it says I can't load it because I already have a newer version installed... But as I said, I deleted it and all it's shared components from library.
    Any thoughts?

    Look in the HD/Library/Receipts folder for a part you didn't delete.
    Try the installer again after removing the .pkg file.

  • Itunes deleted in computer update. New version won't recognize all CD music

    As stated, computer upgraded by individual. Itunes did not come over. Songs would not play at all so I downloaded a newer Itunes than I had before (old version was at least 3 to 4 years old). Newer version installed was 7. All music on the computer in the itunes file was copied from personal CD collection (bought new from local stores over the years, nothing jacked or contraband). The CD music was "converted" to Apple specs as of 3 or 4 years ago and all played fine in the old Itunes. Most all of the music was recognized in the newer Itunes and playable but many were not. Noticed the playable ones listed twice so deleted the copy that would not play BUT all songs not listed twice. Did I interrupt some kind of verification/update somehow. I did not show anything running as an update, no wait or loading bars, etc. At any rate I know very little (obviously) about Itunes stuff, just what I learned when I originally copied the cd's to sync to my husband's ipod. I just want to play the music while I am on the computer and download to his Ipod Nano. Any help on how to "fix" the ones that won't play or resume any kind of "update" that might have been in progress would be appreciated.

    itunes actually sells you music you "really" own
    The iTunes Store has no "subscription" model; all tracks you purchase are yours forever. Most tracks in the iTunes Store now come without copy protection, though there are still tracks that are copy-protected and so can only be played on an Apple player or burned to audio CD (which will work as does any normal audio CD). You can tell the tracks that lack copy protection by the "+" symbol next to the price in the iTunes Store.
    From there it's up to you whether it will be more cost-effective and desirable for you to purchase an iPod and those tracks you don't have in an unprotected format or to get another Zune.

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.
