Did firefox just have an update?

It's 12 am and I usually wake up around this time for some odd reason. So, I get on my laptop, and I see that I forgot to close a popup that was produced when I was looking at lyrics to a song. After I closed it out, I saw another window that said something like "firefox needs to update". So, without thinking, I clicked it. Did I just mess up really bad, or did I NOT just make a huge mistake?

The Firefox 33.0.1 was released as a updated on October 24.

They are only free via the account orginally purchased or if they came pre installed on the computer. Depending on what you have purchased already us the one account for the app store - saves headace and hassel in the future thus not double buying software. Do you have iwork installed on your imac? meaning the iwork 09? if you do your should be able to to to the store and update it. Worked fine for me since i bought the DVD version of iwork 09 and Aperture 3. I did not want to have to rebuy them so the app store noticed i had them installed and changed the update via the app store.

You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone.
So, yes, you need to get a sim card.

FireFox just loaded an update and is now not compatible with my Antivirus program. What can I do? am I still protected? do I need to delete Firefox?

I am using Kasperski Internet Security

I do not use this, but a quick web search suggests problems may be with the add-ons rather than the core Kasperski Anti Virus program.
See for instance:[http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=211298&view=findpost&p=1682494] where a forum moderator says "''Kaspersky is aware of the issue and is working on a fix.''"
Additional info: see also thread [/questions/843375]
If the problem is a simple one of the toolbar compatibility, and the toolbar is an add on then try downloading, installing and running [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ compatability reporter] that may be a quick fix.

Possibly but only if they are recurrent. The kernel extensions involved were those related to USB devices so the panic may have been caused by a USB device you have connected to your computer.

Why do I have less updated software after a repair?

About a week ago, I spilled soup on my computer, so I took it to the Apple store and they repaired it, but they had to replace everything inside it so it's like I have a new computer now. Not only does my computer feel much heavier than it did before, I have less updated software. Before, I had Lion (10.7.3) and now with this new stuff they repaired it with, I have Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Why did they do this, and is there any way I can get Lion back without having to pay for it? I'm extremely angry and I don't have money to just throw around spending on Apple's mistakes!

Are you also extremely angry at yourself, for slopping soup into your computer? If not, why not? You must have thrown quite a lot of money at that problem, which was no one's fault but your own.
Mistakes happen. If you hadn't made one first, Apple wouldn't have had a chance to make one afterward. Go back to the store and keep your anger to yourself. Explain clamly and politely that you'd like them to reinstall Lion, which was on it when you took it in. If you conduct yourself reasonably, I expect they'll oblige you.
As for the machine being heavier, that simply isn't true. There's nothing Apple could have put in it that would be any heavier than what was taken out. You're imagining the difference.

Why did i just get an error from firefox 4 saying that someone was trying to push an update to firefox to harm my system?

I had firefox minimized while it was downloading a file and i was working in another application and a box came from firefox titled "Software update" which would normally mean firefox was going to update or needed to restart. but instead the box said " Someone is trying to trick firefox into accepting an insecure update. Please contact your network provider and seek help.". Now this has me puzzled as i am the only user of this laptop, and isnt mozilla the only people that can send an update to firefox? I've also been having some other problems as far as speed and plug-ins. mainly quicktime, last time i tried to launch a quicktime video in firefox. it wouldnt work. also when i had the previous firefox, i had more ram then i do with 4. i mean i used to with just firefox 3 running i would have 2545 or at least 2500MB of free ram and that would be with at least three or more tabs open. now i have with firefox 4 only running around 1600mb or free ram and nothing has changed with my system other than firefox.

Oops, sorry about that. I already had wondered why I had missed this thread.
It is best to do a clean reinstall and remove the entire Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) in this case to remove all leftover files.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the ''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.

How can I prevent Firefox from ever automatically updating without my say so. It just did, and DESTROYED all bookmarks. I'm BUMMED about that

There were NO .json files saved anywhere in the 'puter. I need to be reliably OPTED OUT of automatic updating unless the auto destruction forces warn me aforehand to backup my cookies, bookmarks, email and etc. When I now click on Help, I get an automatic start of "downloading Firefox 3.6.6" WHAT KIND OF HELP IS THAT?

Your bookmarkbackups folder is your Profile folder which is normally a folder hidden by Windows.

I use the "Ask me what I want to do" option. It will still check, but ask you if you want to update '''IF''' you leave the check mark next to Firefox.

SAVE the installer to your hard drive (Desktop is a good place so you can find it). When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit), locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.

I did the iOS 7 seconds update and now my screen is just a plug and iTunes logo. I don't have a computer anymore just iPad. What do I do

Hello,
My suggestion would be to do the following:
-Press and hold the power button and home button for the time needed until the screen turns black and the apple logo reappears.
If that does not work, call the nearest Apple store and ask for assistance.
Hope this helps,

I have just tried to update the software on my iPad and it is now asking me to connect to iTunes. The last time I did this it did not tell me to do this. I'm currently travelling and do not have my MacBook with my iTunes.Can it be resolved without iTunes

I hope that you can see this response. The forum software is acting quite bizarre today.
You really do want to restore with your own computer. There is an off chance that you might be able to backup first, but I really think it is a very slight chance now since you got the connect to iTunes screen. But on the chance that when you connect, it sees the iPad and allows a backup, I would to not have you wait to use your own Mac.
If you cannot create a backup, you will lose everything that you have put on since the date to the last backup. So of your last backup was three weeks ago, you will restore the iPad to the condition that it was in three weeks ago.
If you do a lot of traveling, using iCloud for backups might be a very good idea. I use iTunes primarily and I backup my MacBook Pro with Time Capsule, but I still use iCloud as a secondary backup. I don't have enough data that I have exceeded the free 5 GB that you get with iCloud, so I do use it just in case.
I can't explain what happened with the update, I can only tell you that it does happen to other users. I have never had a problem when I updated and I having been updating over WiFi since iOS 5 came out. Taking a guess, maybe an interruption in the connection - especially of you tried updating using a hotel's WiFi network, or a power surge maybe. Whatever the cause, it is most likely a one time thing. That doesn't help your situation I know, but hopefully it won't happen again.

1: I cannot get firefox to just open -I have to go through all kinds of things to use Firefox 2) I cannot update firefox

Hello-
I love firefox - but I am having a hard time using it. I want to replace Safari on my MACBookPro with Firefox (& my iPad if I can).
Here is what I want to do:
1: I cannot dopwnload any updates for Firefox & this is a security issue. I just let my laptop sit for 36 hours trying to connect and cannot. :(
2) I have to go through a ton of clicks to bring up Firefox, with Safari I just clicked on the safari logo on my dashboard and it came up- with firefox I go through a ton of screens to get to the Internet- what am I doing wrong?
I want to use Firefox, but I cannot if I cannot download the updates or access it without so many places to go before the internet will come up- I do not have the time. I work with a new web site publisher and they are impatient with the delays that I have.

1) I have gone to that site to download- hopefully the download took
2) Every time I click on the Firefox icon in my dashboard a screen comes up with the firefox logo and tan arrow pointing to a logo for my applications- I have clicked on, dragged, reloaded & done everything that I can think of to let firefox know that it resides in my applications on my computer.
Each time that I want togo on the internet using Firefox I have to click on the firefox logo on my dashboard, then respond to a message that firefox was a download from the internet, then I have to choose from the firefox logo with a arrow pointing to a filefolder labelled applications (both return the firefox internet browser

Since I updated Firefox I have to constantly re log-in to my Yahoo account such as email. Every time I leave the page I have to log-in to get back into it. I also run OPERA and I do not have that problem with them. I stay logged in. Any suggestions?

I have windows Vista and have the updated version of Firefox. I also can run OPERA and LUNASCAPE with no problems. When running Firefox I have to constant re log-in to my Yahoo account every time I leave the page. For example: I log in to check my email on Yahoo and then leave my email page. Then when I return to recheck my email I have to log in all over again. I can't stay logged in. If I run my OPERA browser I stay logged in for days without having to sign in all over again.

Firefox 13 linux checks for updates and says it is up to date even though my other systems have auto-updated a week or two ago.

My firefox auto-updated to 10.0, 10.0.1, 11, and 12. but would not auto-update to 13.0 so I manually downloaded and updated. now that 14 is out it still won't auto-update. by which I mean when I go to HELP, ABOUT, it says it is fire fox 13.0, says it's checking for updates (very very briefly) then says "firefox is up to date". several other systems have auto-updated from 13 to 14, a couple of weeks ago but this one refuses. what's wrong here?

You will be slightly behind if you use Linux and their own version of Firefox instead of the Mozilla standard version. (Not of course standard in some Linux distros)
I use Ubuntu, and their Canonical Firefox Aurora just updated I think yesterday from fx15 to fx16. {''Mozilla/5.0 (X11;''' Ubuntu'''; Linux x86_64; rv:16.0) Gecko/16.0 Firefox/16.0'' ]
I also have the Mozilla Firefox Release 64bit and that updated as expected a while ago from fx13 to fx14. {''Mozilla/5.0 (X11; '''Linux''' x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1'']
Not sure why fx13 is not updating for you.
Maybe something to do with your distro IF it is their version. IIRC some early Ubuntu LTS versions probably did not update Firefox. But you may have the Mozilla version as your system info aside shows ''User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; '''Linux '''i686; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0''
You could just download the latest version from
* http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Just take care not to delete the existing firefox profile, preferably back it up first just in case.

Why did all my apps update when I have automatic updates turned off?

Settings/iTunes & App Stores/Automatic Downloads
Music
Apps
Documents
I have them all turned OFF so that I can manually update my apps when I choose to.
Yesterday there were 11 updates left after I had finished updating the apps I use most often.
Today, it says ALL my apps are up to date?!
So, did Apple force a bulk update on me despite my having turned everything OFF? Or did all my updates just suddenly disappear overnight???
I will be VERY angry if I find out that my apps can be forcibly updated without my say so!
If so, how can I prevent this from happening again? If not, same question?

It seems to be a common problem.
