Firefox 4 download does not recognize previous version has been removed and tells me to restart to complete removal of said version. This has been going on though several attempts to load version 4

The question is self explanatory

Choose one or both options:
* Manually delete the previous install folder before installing new version
* Choose a different directory on install (e.g. c:\Program Files\2nd Mozilla Firefox)

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Apple TV does not recognize my Apple account username (email) and password, but iTunes, my iPad and iPhone does.  I have rest my password three times, same results.
    ATV says my computer is not authorized, but i-Tunes says it is.
    I have i-Tunes open on my computer and have entered i-Tunes store, ATV says it can't access the store.  Both on the same network!
    I am so frustrated with this system!  All these problems with Apple TV are not the end but the beginning.
    In i-Tunes, songs are lost when they have not been moved. I lose whole albums I have ripped from CDs to iTunes
    An audiobook book in two files are in the library but only one file is recognized by iTunes when I try to play it or transfer it to my iPhone

    I Am having the same issue. Ie on the password issue.
    I Am using a Macpro though.
    i Have had no issues with the setup until recently.
    However I think the hard drive is starting to fail as it keeps on losing the wireless connection and gas been stuttering a lot on playback.

    Latest Lithroom 5.6 does not recognize my .cr2 raw file format and Windows 7 it asociates with my older raw plug in in Ps CS5.5. I am not able to change default program for .cr2 in the properties pannel...

    Hi Jim,
    yes after I imported my .cr2 raw files into new catalog it started to work. Windows 7 still does not recognize them but I can edit them as you said within the Lr5.6 and then export them into .psd or .dng files...as needed.

    Have you updated iTunes with the absolute latest software?  If you have not in a long time, your iPad won't be recognized.

  • Time Machine does not recognize previous backups in TC and starts new BUps

    Time Machine (TM) seem not recognize previous back ups made in Time Capsule (TC) and begins a new copy of the back up every time, taking a lot of time.
    The Time Capsule has an initial backup copy that I made several weeks ago. Subsequent backups seem to have disappear and the initial back up process is started over every time I make a backup, lasting several hours.
    In the Control Panel of Time Machine, the Time Capsule disk has been selected as the place where the backup should be made.
    The Time Capsule is not mounted in the desktop but can be seen as a Share resource.
    Do you know why this is happening?
    Is there any way that I can use the already existing initial backup in TC as a starting point for subsequent backups?
    Your help will be much appreciated.

    I resolved the problem of getting the computer to recognize that I had the authorization to change file names by myself. For anyone with a similar issue (insufficient authorization), the following are the steps I took to resolve the issue.
    First, click on the external HD icon used for TM and chose "get info". In the info window goto the "Sharing & Permission" section where the +, - , action menu and lock are. Unlock the lock if it is locked. Verify that the Name used for the computer, user or administrator has "read & write" permission. Then go to the Action menu (the icon or design that looks like a sprocket) and choose "apply to enclosed items". In my case the HD went on noisily for a few hours before I decided to Force Quit. I then went back to the file name and changed it back to the way it was prior to my ill fated attempt to back up my other computer on the same HD.
    I hope this will help anyone who has come across a similar issue.

  • Time Machine in Mavericks does not recognize previous backups

    Hi!
    I've just installed Mavericks and Time Machine does not recognize my previously existing backups. Tried reconnecting to my backups and nothing changed (I have used this successfully in the past with Lion). Decided to do a full new backup in another drive, which worked fine, and after deselecting that drive in TM preferences and selecting it again it also does not recognize the new backup and indicates it is going to do a full new backup... Any suggestions?
    Besides the problem of not recognizing previous backups, this is problematic for me because I am used to do 2 different TM backups in 2 different locations and it was very easy just to select the corresponding disk in each location and TM would recognize the existing backups and just follow on the incremental backup. Now this seems to be impossible in Mavericks...
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    FireWire or thunderbolt?
    FireWire and thunderbolt HD interfaces seem to be universally affected.   I've seen no exemptions yet to same
    There is no resolution to this yet, techs are working on it
    Its happening on 80% WD Raid My Book on this board and others, and happening entirely on Firewire and Thunderbolt drives and apparently all WD Mybooks
    Its seen on O Raid and 1 Raid both alike.
    also occurring on LaCie (Seagate) FW drives.
    until resolution , use external USB drives proven to work with Mavericks.

  • Firefox browser does not recognize Java plugin in 64 bit Linux

    I am running Firefox12 on RHEL5 with Java6u31 installed. Unfortunately firefox will not recognize the java plugin. I have tried linking it in the appropriate directory (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/760718?e=es&as=aaq) and I get nothing. The only feedback I seem to get is that when I go to this website: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ it tells me that Firefox has "disabled my version of Java because it is outdated" which is total BS because I have the latest version! Typing in "about:plugins" only shows the flash plugin (which is in the same directory !!!!)
    Java used to work in my browser and flash works fine and I've been trying for ages to get it to work again and I'm at a loss.
    Doesn't anyone else have this problem ??????????

    6.32 is the latest, check it in : [http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp Verify Java Version]
    if update to 6.32 probably you have no problem.
    thank you

  • Firefox download does not start, even after multiple reloads.

    On a Windows 7 laptop (HP) that's a year and a half old, Firefox refuses to download, despite multiple refreshes of the website. This CAN'T be the only time this has ever happened in the whole history of the internet. I know, I was there when mozilla was a beta test.

    In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

  • Firefox request does not recognize a cookie that is present

    Our application has been working for several years, but recently we got a lot of complaints from users that can no longer log in. Our app is set up to link a user to a workstation using a cookie (s)he receives on the first connection. Apparently, this cookie is nicely transferred to the workstation, and the user is requested to login again. At that point the request does not contain the cookie and the login is refused. Yet when looking in the cookie info, the cookie is present on the workstation.
    Has anyone any suggestions as to why this goes wrong?

  • Firefox Sometimes Does Not Recognize Character Set

    Firefox cannot decode some characters of english text or symbols and instead of characters appear some kind of codes. Just like you would surf to chinese website without chinese character set.
    [http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/1638/characterseterror.jpg Such as this here]
    Why is it so in Firefox? I never saw this happening in Internet Explorer.

    Pages that use Unicode (UTF-8) display a little box with the hex code if the character can't be displayed.
    That allows you to look up the character in a table.
    If you see such a box with hex code in it then that means that Firefox can't map a character to a specific font and you have to install a font that covers the affected characters.<br />
    In your case you are lacking font support and fonts if it happens on sites that use CJK.<br />
    You will see something similar on Windows XP if you visit pages that use complex scripts (e.g. Indic and Arabic).<br />
    Windows XP only has very basic language support installed by default.<br />
    There are a lot of languages on the world and there are always languages that may need special fonts.<br />
    You most likely can't read them, so it is your choice if you want to install a font for such pages or just accept the little squares with the hex code.

  • Time Machine looses previous back up or does not recognize previous backup

    I have been using time machine for about a month. Recently, the program stopped recognizing the backup, and has attempted to start a new back up on the same disk, resulting in an error "This backup is too large for the backup volume". The oldest backup shown is "yesterday" as opposed to "last month"...
    Within the Time Machine volume, there is the "Backups.backupdb" folder, which was created on 11/18. The next level down is the folder of my computer name, also created on 11/18. The next is 2007-12-10-120733, which is only 161 GB of 232 GB. The internal hard drive has 231 GB on it.
    It is a bit troubling that the backup could have been lost on its own. Any thoughts?
    Thank you!

    I found this thread via google. Same thing is happening to me. Out of the blue, I got an error to the effect that I hadn't backed up in ten days. Imagine my surprise. Upon investigation, Time Machine was complaining that it couldn't find its backup disk, despite the fact that I was able to browse the backed up data that was there without any special effort - just clicking the dock icon. I de- and then re-selected my BU disk, and it began backing up just fine.
    What I didn't notice, however, was that it was starting from scratch with a new folder with a "-2" on the end, and eating through practically all of my remaining space. Now, I have to use the dock icon menu to browse through 'other' backups, which allows me to browse my old data just fine, and even restore from there. I just can't convince it to continue backing up to there. Also, I am completely unable to delete the "-2" folder by any means.
    How very irritating. Guess I'll just leave it off until they fix this. I wonder if it's related to the problem where spotlight has to completely re-index from scratch every time I reboot? Are all these little daemons losing their disks?

  • Firefox 4 does not allow me to organize book marks and does not automatically fill web sites I start to type.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I no longer have the option to organize bookmarks. Also when I start to type a website and I click on the suggestions that appear as I start to type... they do not appear in the space where I have started to type. This did not happen with my previous verion of Firefox. Everything worked perfectly.

    Thank you Tony E... it did solve my book mark problem... but do you know why Foxfire 4 does not fill in websites they suggests to the area where I start to type in a search.
    For instance I might start to type in Firefox to indicate that I want to go to the Firefox web site. But before I start to finish typing Fir... a box pop up with the suggestion Firefox. If I click on this suggestion it should fill the area I am typing and take me to the Firefox web site.
    Unfortunately it does not do this now... they way it used to do before... in the older version of Firefox.

  • Firefox download does not give a global icon on the desktop. There is an orange box with a slot labelled firefox. I cannot install firefox.

    I am using an iMac with system 10.6.8 and a Safari browser. When I download the firefox program, I do not get the usual global firefox icon. I get a rectangular box with a slot at the end and the label "Firefox". If I transfer this icon to my Applications folder, this icon becomes an alias which cannot be transferred to the Dock. How can I install Firefox?

    This problem has been solved. Thank you.
