Firefox 3.6.10 update won't load on restart (tried many times) and exits after warning to restart again - how to disable warning so don't have to start twice every time I use Firefox?

I regret agreeing to download Firefox 3.6.10 update, as it is somehow corrupted, and will not load when I restart. Subsequently, every time I start Firefox, it warns "Update Ready to Install", then when I don't restart (if I restart, it won't load) it exits, and I have to start Firefox a second time. Then it works without the warning, but when I exit and start Firefox again, the warning returns and the cycle repeats. This is such a nuisance I have gone back (reluctantly) to Explorer. Is there anyway for me to get rid of this corrupted update and go back to before I downloaded the fateful update?

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.
*Shockwave Flash 9.0 r999
Update the [[Managing the Flash plugin|Flash]] plugin to the latest version.

In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you need the Next-Generation Java™ Plug-In present in Java 6 U10 and later (Linux: libnpjp2.so; Windows: npjp2.dll).

  • I hate my new update.  All pages are printed too small for my aging eyes!  Yes I know how to do Command   but don't want to do this every time.  Also, more importantly, where is my Google search engine?  And why no easy way to click back to previous page?

    Okay, as soon as I sent this I figured out where Google search is!

    The desktop, the mail, all webpages.  I know there used to be a way to fix this in preferences but now cannot find it. 
    Also my home page will no longer open (BBC America). 
    I found the Safari Search option (should have been obvious!) But on other hand, do not understand why tool bar keeps disappearing - aah, just another of life's mysteries (until I figure it out!).

  • How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?

    How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?
    I have seen this question asked previously and it seems there is no answer.
    I know that one can change each individual web page (that reset defaults back to 100%) and, alternatively and apparently one can load an add-on to fix the default size at Full Zoom.
    ... But any hints on how to achieve a DEFAULT 125% zoom would be much appreciated.

    Press CTRL + 0
    Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
    After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
    If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
    You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
    If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
    You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
    [[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
    [[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

  • How do I format a table in Pages so that I don't have to keep reformatting every time I go to a new cell?

    how do I format a table in Pages so that I don't have to keep reformatting every time I go to a new cell?

    Hello Fruhulda
    Clicking a Pages table don't give the same result than clicking somewhere in the table then pressing cmd + a.
    The first scheme selects the table (height square handles displayed)
    The second one select every cells (no handle displayed).
    If we try to fill cells with a color in case 1, only standard cells are filled.
    If we try to do the same in case 2, every cells (headers included) will receive the color.

  • Iod Touch Problem with January Update - Won't load!! Tried Everything/

    Dear all, Just thought I'd try my luck here for some help on the January upgrade. I'm experiencing all of the problems that everyone else are having but the usual fixes don't work. So I've upgraded my Touch to 1.1.3 and Itunes to 7.6.
    The Download button wasnt visible so I reset my Touch. I was then able to purchase the touch and it downloaded. Then nothing. I had oricinally Synced with a different computer and had manual Syncronisation enabled. So, I reset my Touch again, set it to auto Sync and rebooted, re-synced, everything. Hours of trying different variations of restoring, syncing, etc. When I put my Ipod back in the cradle, I go to the purchase upgrade screen. If I hit "No Thanks, I get an error. If I try to purchase again, I get the message that it's already purchased. I've checked my download history and the upgrade is listed there.
    I'm a windows/Intel guy and was starting to realise how cool Apple stuff was but well, now I think I'm starting to come back around.
    Any suggestions ? Thanks to all and good luck!

    Hi EC, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that doesn't work either. I've tried on two diferent computers too. Itunes 7.6 install, reset Touch, reinstall software, sync and no luck. I've double checked that my computer is authorised an that the January upgrade is in my purchase history. Even reset my touch via iTunes and via the Settings panel on the Ipod.
    The only thing left that I can think of is to create a new account and re-purchase the upgrade. However, Im still not totally at ease with paying for an upgrade 2 weeks after the purchase, and Im not ready to pay for it twice.
    Apple are you guys really this bad at running a business ? I will certainly with-hold purchasing any new product of yours in the future.
    Cheers

  • I have an icon for my email on my desktop, but I would like my email icon to be on my firefox browser, so I don't have to close it every time I want to check my mail. Anyone know how to do this??

    When I used Explorer as my browser, there was always a way to click on email right there on the browser. After I loaded firefox I haven't been able to find a way to add an email icon to my browser page

    You can use the Get Mail add-on to add an icon that will open your email program - http://webdesigns.ms11.net/getmail.html

    You may have an email file that cannot be played by QT. But then you did not provide the exact wording of the error message.
    QT cannot open all types of files. You might try installing the QT plug-in Perian 1.2.3 that will enable QT to play many more types of files.
    What exactly is the type of file you have that you cannot open with QT? You can try using a third-party player such as VLC Media Player 2.0.1 or MPlayerX 1.0.14.

  • Apple TV update won't load

    I've been able to connect and activate my Apple TV -- a process which required using an ethernet cable to bypass my firewall -- and can access Netflix and rent movies, etc via iTunes. However, the update won't load (I've tried 21 times) and I can't access Hulu Plus or my photos.
    I'm now on my second Apple TV, having been advised by a Mac computer specialist to take back my first one and exchange it, in case it was the root of my problem; however, I'm having the same issues with the second on as with the first. I exchanged my Apple TV on January 26.
    I've had my server connections tested by Time Warner and happily, I'm running at a blazing fast speed; everything on my laptop loads beautifully.  
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Reboot ATV and router
    Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settings - general - network)
    If on wifi try ethernet

  • Firefox 6.0.1 update won't recognize the home page which uses a password access which has been saved into 6.0.1.

    Question
    Firefox 6.0.1 update won't recognize the home page which uses a password access which has been saved into 6.0.1. The security shows permissions for the web site but doesn't recognize that I've been accessing the web page every day since I updated to 6.0.1. Web page trying to access is <http://classic.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:98108.5.99999> This home page worked fine on earlier versions of Firefox and continues with Internet Explorer 9.0.

    Looks like its been fixed for me, not by 6.0.1 but by - Todd Siechen from http://www.dvdthemepak.com

    Todd... I love you xxx
    After having a nightmare since first day of version 6.0.0 and still no fix after 6.0.1, even after Apple requested the files... You fixed my problem... Checked for duplicate fonts and found about 5, selected "Resolve Duplicates" and everything great, even with old projects... You should work for Apple!

    1) The first and biggest culprit we found to be causing problems is with font issues. In order to alleviate this problem, open Font Book and make sure all the Fonts that are turned on have no dots next to them. If they do then select them and select "Resolve Duplicates" from the Edit menu. If you are using a different font manager then use whatever tool is available to make sure no duplicate fonts are loaded. iDVD 6 is very sensitive to this.

  • Running 3.6.13 on MAC OS 10.6.7. Firefox wants to install updates but updater never connects. It's in eternal "connecting to server" mode. Now I get a message that says I don't have permission to make updates on this computer, I'm the only user. Ideas?

    Not sure what to do....

    If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or have other problems with updating to update 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 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
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Update and addon splash screens show up at start-up every time Firefox is opened?

    Recently, whenever I open a new Firefox session, the one-time screen thanking me for updating shows up, alongside whatever other "thank you for updating" webpages my various add-ons have. Ghostery's config screen, the FEBE welcome page, etc. Does anyone know how I can stop this, or what causes it? At first I thought it was an issue with Firefox 3.6, so I updated to Firefox 6; it still happens.

    # Make sure that in Tools, Options, Content you don't have 'open tabs from last time' selected.
    # In the Tabs section of the Options window, tick 'Ask before closing multiple tabs'.
    I think these two should help to resolve the issue.

  • Updates won't load in iTunes?

    According to the badge, I have 9 app updates waiting for me on my 4s running iOS 6.1.2. However, when I go to the updates screen, it is blank. It just doesn't load. Every other screen in the App Store loads just fine, but not the updates -- regardless of how many are waiting to update. And this keeps happening. It will be fine for a week or so, and then just crap out on the updates screen.
    I have tried signing in &amp; out of the App Store.
    I have tried shutting down the App Store.
    I have tried rebooting the phone.
    I have even restored the phone as recently as last week.
    But it still keeps happening. And it is very very irritating. I can't chain myself to my computer just to update my apps.

    Sorry about the title > it should read Updates won't load in App Store.....it won't let me edit. :-(

    Can anyone tell me how I keep everything I had in my old photoshop, now I've updated to Photoshop CC 2014.  It did give me the option to transport over all my presets, but because I didn't have internet access at the time, it couldn't do it.  Now I'm not getting the option.  Please help.

    Migrating Presets does not require a network connection and you can still migrate your cc presets if you still have CC installed.  Use Photoshop menu Edit>Presets>Migrate Presets...  Migrating presets only migrates presets.  It does not migrate Plugins, settings, extensions and scripts.  CC 2014 is also not completely backwards compatible with CC.  Support for Flash Panels and Oil Painter filter have been removed.  So extensions like mini bridge no longer work in CC 2014
