Downloaded 26 to Dell XPS/Windows XP;how do I run it ?

Firefox told me to upgrade browser. So I downloaded Firefox Setup Stub 26.0 (4).exe. Now, when I open Firefox the message is "you need to upgrade"--still. How do I formalize the upgrade so that it is --in fact--upgraded and running once and for all? I'm running in Windows on a decade-old Dell XPS Windows XP Thanks.

The stub installer is a small download. Once you double-click it, it pulls a larger file and installs it. If you've already done that, I suspect you might have a different issue.
Check your internal version number using Help > About Firefox
If that shows 26.0, then your Firefox is up-to-date and there is a glitch with the version number Firefox is reporting to websites. You can clear this up using the method outlined in this article: [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]].
Does that work?

  • I have Dell XPS (windows 8.1): error: "this program won't run on this pc"

    Greetings, I just purchased a Dell XPS with Windows 8.1. I have tried to load Irfanview, Kompozer, FileZilla, and other software that I have run, most on XP and even on MacOS, but the downloaded software will not run or install on my new Windowx 8.1. This
    is terribly frustrating! I also don't understand why there is no "start" button that leads you to the software you have installed. 
    Please help. Thank you. 

    Press the Windows key on your keyboard.
    To get Start menu press + X

    Where is the Start menu?
    If you wish to get the conventional  Start button  then download and install
    Classic Shell
    some older programs might run poorly or not run at all. If an older program doesn't run correctly or doesn't install, start the Program Compatibility Wizard, which simulates an earlier version of Windows. You can :-

    Hi villside27,
    Download assistant is simply a software to assist you in downloading Photoshop trial. Launch the assistant to start the download or follow the instructions below to download the software directly without using the Download assistant :
    1. Navigate to Photoshop  CS6 downloads page : http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop
    2. Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    3. Copy and paste the following links on the address bar and hit enter :
    Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended English Mac
    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/13/osx10/Photoshop_13_LS16.dmg
    Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended English Windows

    http://trials2.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/13/win32/Photoshop_13_LS16.exe
    4. Save the files.
    5. Run the .exe file if on Windows or the .dmg file if on MAC.

  • CS3 windows version how can I run it on an iMAC

    I want to upgrade my PC and I am thinking of getting an iMAC with 24" monitor but no one can tell me if I will be able to use my windows version of CS3. I have Lightroom and that seems to run in both platforms.

    (This question is not about the Photoshop SDK, which is a tool for
    programmers. I will answer anyway, but please post future questions in
    a more relevant forum, thanks! ...)
    You certainly can't install Windows software directly on a Mac. If you
    have Lightroom which runs on either platform its because you have
    installers for both Mac and Windows software, which is not what you
    get for all programs on the CS3 disks. With rare exceptions you would
    need to buy ALL your software again, unless the vendor offers both
    versions on one disk, or a way of upgrading between PC and Mac.
    However, if the Mac is running Leopard, you can buy and install
    Windows XP (full retail version, using a disk which came with a PC is
    NOT allowed) and then boot up Windows in place of Mac OS X. Then you
    can run CS3 for Windows, and any other of the Windows software you
    don't want to buy.
    I wouldn't personally recommend buying Vista instead.

  • TS5376 Have new dell xps system and cannot install I tunes: "Apple Application Support was not found"...Error 2 (Windows error 2)....any ideas??

    I am having tremendous difficulty installing I Tunes onto my new Dell XPS (Windows 8). First it downloaded but my library wasn't there and it would not recognize my ipod.
    Then I uninstalled it and now it won't reinstall saying:
    Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple applicationSupport is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2 (Windows error 2)
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times.......not working.
    Any ideas??

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Windows Vista Ultimate on Dell XPS Notebook: Why do I need Boot  Camp?

    I use Windows Vista Ultimate on my Dell XPS Notebook, and application software includes iTunes and Apple Store. Is this why I received a message to download "Boot Camp"? Why do I need Boot Camp?

    Sounds really messed up to me. Bonjour? maybe.
    Apple AppStore? I think everyone has the right to their own appstore but I thought only an Apple deivce (mac, iphone, ipad, etc)
    Apple doesn't support or license use of Mac OS on other hardware, which they call "hackintoshes."

    When your username includes a Charakter like "acson te graf" zhere is a Problem for Windows to find your installiert-Files. Yust Build another Username like "Dummy", give admistration rights, change to this user and install iTunes on this accout. Now you can Return to your Old account an use iTunes.
    I am still surching how to change the username in Windows but still no idea.

  • In Firefox can not see the Downloads window, in the jump in the boot to be seen - the download speed Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    in Firefox can not see the Downloads window, in the jump in the boot to be seen - the download speed
    Downloaded much and now can not see how to fix it?

    I hate the new downloads-in-a-tab scheme. This was an unnecessary change in my book (if it aint broke, don't "fix it").
    So in order to get it back, I performed the about:config browser.download.useToolkitUI change, but now all I get is a blank download window that pops up every time I download something.
    Is there something else that I need to do? I've checked the change and it was saved, but it didn't resolve my issue as much as it just caused me a new issue.
