Deviantart keeps telling me to upgrade my firefox even though I have the latest version

I keep updating and same story.

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is probably messed up by another program that you installed. 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter 
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' 
Filter = '''general.useragent.''' 
Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. 
Then restart Firefox

Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore. It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version. Please help? I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore. It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version. Please help? I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
          Allow Plug-ins
Then click
          Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

I keep getting a message asking me to download the newest version of firefox even though i have the newest version, is there a fix for this?

When i first start Fire-Fox i keep getting a message telling me i need to upgrade it. Problem is i have the newest version already. I have checked repeatedly and have the newest version on my desktop already.

You are using Firefox 2.0
Latest version is Firefox 3.6 (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/)

Told my internet firefox bowser is too old even though i have the latest version of firefox

I wanted to just download Firefox again to see if that will solve the problem. If i do do I lose my bookmarks?

What is the exact message that you are getting? A screenshot, perhaps: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
The Reader executable name is AcroRd32.exe

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.

Auto. updates fail to install. but Firefox tells me I have the latest version.

Firefox attempts automatic updates which always fail. Then it downloads a complete version which also does not install. When directed to Firefox I'm told I amusing the latest version. Why do the updates fail, and why is it trying to update when I have the latest version???

There was a .1 update, to 25.0.1. You can check whether you have that update using
Help > About Firefox
I don't think websites can detect your version number to that level, so the Mozilla website might only be able to determine that you have 25.0.

Every day we get this request to upgrade firefox but we already have the latest version/

we`ve just upgraded firefox to 6.02 version, still we get this remark to upgrade again to the latest version. When I start downloading this I get the question whether I want to replace the already installed version with the same one?

I need to puchase acorns for ice age village and it keeps telling me to contact itunes support even though I have credits to make this purchase

I have downloaded the ice age village game and am trying to purchase acorns but it keeps telling me that I need to contact Itunes support why when I have credits to make this purchase. I have made this purchase previously.

Contact iTunes support and see if they can tell you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

Even though I updated the latest version on my macbook, Firefox keeps prompting me to update, with an older version. THis keeps happening daily. IT's getting very tiresome. Please make these prompts go away!

I updated 2 days ago with firefox I think 5.0. When I first go onto my home page, Firefox pops on with a message to update to 3.6.18.

Hi Trancer, I think you have at least 3 different issues going on here.
(1) I will leave the mobile issue for someone more familiar with how update prompts work.
(2) Regarding Taleo, there was a problem when Firefox 19 was released, and that was fixed by the site. I haven't heard of any problems in Firefox 26. Perhaps there is a new issue in Aurora? It is a test version and will have more bugs than regular releases. Why are you running Aurora -- to test the "Metro" style interface for Windows 8?
(3) Regarding Shockwave Flash crashes, try disabling the protected mode feature of the Flash Player plugin. The following pages provide information on how to disable the feature.

That takes effect after Flash is completely unloaded; you might need to exit and restart Firefox.

I want to completely remove the advert ban application. Even though I have the latest Firefox version I cannot access my add-ons. How do I resolve these issues?

I have Firefox version 7.01.

You should be able to see the add-ons and plugins by using
* '''Tools -> Add-ons''' (Or you may use keyboard shortcut '''Ctrl + Shift + A''' )
** then once in Add-ons Manager select the tab '''|extensions|''' or '''| plugins|'''
What is the ''advert ban application'' that you refer to ? this may be some program that was installed on Windows XP and may need to be removed from the control panel of XP, or is it part of a security suite ?

I have downloaded Firefox 5.0.1 4 times but the 3.6.19 version still shows up in the "about Firefox" box. Firefox says I have the latest version, but it just does not reflect it in the "about" box.

When I tried the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th time to download 5.0.1, Firefox states that I have the latest version installed, but it still shows up as version 3.6.19 in the "about Firefox" box. And this older version is also reflected in your "educated guesses" about my current browser below.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Recently safari has been quit unexpectedly I've upgraded to snow leopard and I have the latest safari software. What can I do about it to rectify the problem?

Recently Safari has been quitting unexpectedly. I've dumped my cache several times and even upgraded to snow leopard.l I have the latest version of Safari 5.0.5. The situation has gotten quite annoying and been going on for about three weeks now. What can I do to fix this short of bringing it to someone?
I restart and it works fine for awhile and then it quits again. I either restart and/or dump the cache AGAIN! This is getting quite tedious. I've even taken the battery out and reinstalled it. Nothing seems to stop the quitting.

You don't need anything higher than OSX 10.6.8 to run iTunes 11. iTunes system requirements - http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You can't upgrade without more RAM.

I have updated my firefox version but it keeps on telling me that I do not have the latest version, even though I just updated it.

On the homepage of firefox it sayd that I do not have the latest version of firefox. So i desidet to update it, but after that it kept on telling me that I do not have the latest version. I am sure that I have the latest version because I just updated it. Is it possible that the update did not work or is just an advertisement firefox shows to everyone? Hopefully you can provide me an answer, which would be helpful.
Computer's operating system: vista (I do not know whether this is relevant)

The machine could be repaired by a company that does circuit board re-soldering, since it is possible a heat-flex solder break on the main board may have caused either the processor or graphics chips to lose connection and that could manifest itself in a few somewhat documented ways.
There is an on-board RAM chip that may also have something to do with a kernel panic, if it no longer is functioning correctly; that is the non-removable one soldered on the board you never usually worry about.
Companies such as powerbookmedic, wegenermedia, and others can take in portable macs of vintage or newer (contact them for details on what they do, and how they accept work orders) for repair and can fix most anything; and have a parts inventory. Modern repair workstations allow the equipped service company to fix complex issues and they do troubleshooting. Sometimes the cost is less than a replacement logic board.
The links above may help isolate the general cause of a kernel panic. There are other articles in Support database including a deeper look into them.
•Technical Note TN2063: Understanding & Debugging Kernel Panics
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/technotes/tn2063/_index.html
•Resolving Kernel Panics - The X Lab:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
•Troubleshooting Kernel Panics:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html#Anchor-Troubleshooting-49575
Usually the issue is caused by hardware, especially if there is an indication of machine failure in the crash log or other screen image text.
A working last model MacBook (mid-2010) would be a better 'first mac' to have.
Hopefully you can sort it out.
If not, there likely are fair parts in it.
Good luck & happy computing!

Keeps telling me I don't have the latest version, but I do!

If you home page is google.com/firefox that page is wrong. Change your home page to about:home or some other page.
You are running the latest version

MAC OSX 10.4.11 I succumbed to the constant messages telling me that I didn't have the latest version, despite being happy with the one I had. My old version and all my bookmarks have been deleted and now my Mac says it doesn't support Firefox!!!!! How can I recuperate my old settings? in English

Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' (like yours) and require '''at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac'''.
The latest supported version for your os is '''3.6.27''' , you can download it from:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
1. Download a 3.6.27 copy of the Firefox from the above link
2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27)
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so probably you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data, if you don't already ''totally'' uninstall firefox(user data and settings like bookmarks, extensions, etc. located here: ~Library/Application Support/Firefox so you must uninstall it separately, to totally uninstall firefox).
