Firefox keeps telling me i have version 3.5.3.6 after i have upgraded to version 4.0

i have tried to upgrade ff 3x's now. i would like to use the 4.0 version so that i may use the add on..Awesome Screenshot - Capture and Annotate 2.3
however, when i try to download it its telling me i need to upgrade. so i did. 3 times. each time it tells me im using the old version, please upgrade. i have even restarted the computer.

''The useragent information is already supplied look in the right column at "more system details" on this page. It shows Firefox 3.5.4''
Suggest downloading the full version from http://www.mozilla.com
then uninstall Firefox through the control panel, but do not delete your user files.
Do not remove your profile directories and files as they contain your settings,
bookmarks, history, extensions, passwords, and cookies.
At the completion of the download don't let the setup
start Firefox for you, when the setup ends, start Firefox in your
normal manner this way you will be less likely to create a new profile.
The extra startup pages are temporary -- read them. The next time
Firefox comes up you should be back to starting with your normal home page.
Note: Firefox must be down once the install starts.
Close Firefox with File>Exit. Then make sure Firefox is not running --
On Windows: check the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
in any case once you are on 4.0 you might want to take a look at "(fx4)"

Why dose firefox keep telling me i have low virtural memory?

what can i do to try to fix this problem?

You can check the Virtual Memory settings here: Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance > Settings (Advanced tab) 
Windows can manage more memory then is physical available and that memory is stored in a page file on your hard drive. 
If the size of that file is not large enough and all available memory is in use then you get the Virtual Memory is low warning. 
Make sure that you have at least 1 GB or the recommended setting for the Virtual Memory. 
If you have less than 1 GB physical memory installed on your computer then if possible add more memory.

What is wrong and how do I fix this. I have been using firfox for more than a year now and have never had trouble till this issue came up

If the toolbar installed something into the rest of the system, you will see an entry in the Control Panel in the software uninstall applet which should be removed. You might need to make a new profile if you cannot find an extension that has something to do with the toolbar.

I have the latest edition of the Flash player and it works fine with IE but Firefox keeps telling me I can play things because I dont have it

Since I updated Firefox I cant play anything that requires Flash player. I have the up to date player and it works perfectly with IE but Firefox keeps telling me I need another plug in and when I follow the instructions it says 'download failed try manual download' but even that fails too.
Before I updated Firefox I had no issues, can you help
Alan.

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
*an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only
*a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox
*On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
'''''You do not appear to have the Plugin version for Firefox installed. ''''' If you did, in Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''". If "Shockwave Flash" is there and is disabled, click the "Enable" button.
Check your Plugins often --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
*only the most popular/used Plugins are known by this page
*page will detect only installed, '''''enabled''''' Plugins
'''Install or update Adobe Flash''' 
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later. Un-check any items on that page that you do not want to download (i.e., "McAfee Security Scan Plus":
#*http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#To update/install the ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''', repeat the process, '''but use IE to go to the above website'''.

Firefox keeps telling me that I have an outdated Firefox, I keep downloading Firefox 4, but Firefox keeps repeating the outdated message. How do I activate Firefox 4?

I do not understand what more information you require. I have downloaded Firefox 4 four times, but Firefox keeps telling me that I am using an outdated Firefox!

Please do the following. 
#Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop. 
#Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box''). 
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
After you complete the installation, please go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

I've completed the new security download routine 3 times, and Firefox keeps telling me I need to download again.

I've downloaded the new security patch 3 times in the last couple of weeks, put it in my applications and from there onto the dashboard, and Firefox keeps telling me that I need to download it again. This is crazy... Firefox can't recognize it's own application???

If there are 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 disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (e.g. open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

I am on Windows 7, and I was on Adobe.com. I went to downloads and clicked on Acrobat XI standard. It downloaded. But when I went to run it said Acrobat XI Pro and would not accept my serial number. I have done this now 4 times. I think that the system is downloading the wrong version. I am getting very frustrated and unhappy with Adobe!!!!

Running 10.4.11 I can not find the outdated plugins that Firefox keeps telling me I need. Apple Software Update doesn't help with this

I'm running 10.4.11 and am unable to find the plugin updates that Firefox keeps telling me I need on an annoying little popup window that keeps coming up whenever I download a page using Firefox. The pluin updates I need are for Quicktime, Java to name a few. Is Apple not supplying any more plugin update because I'm using an old version of Mac OSX? The firefox plugin page tells me that Apple supppies their own plugins but I don't see any when I use Apple Software Update. Any suggestions?

Do what others do and get TenFourFox - the equivalent of the latest Firefox but built especially for PPC: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
To enable plug-ins:
Put about:config in TenFourFox's address bar and hit return
Put tenfourfox.plugins in the search box and hit return
Click tenfourfox.plugins.enabled to set it to true
Restart TenFourFox
TenFourFox will now use the Safari Flash plug-in

App store keeps telling me I have an update but I don't.

The app store on my iPad had an update for an app the other day but rather than updating I chose to delete the app as it was of no use. However the app store keeps telling me I have an update but when I open the app store none are listed.
Anyone experienced this?
Also the iPad keeps telling me my mail settings are incorrect and that I should check them yet I can still send and receive my mail.
Anyone experienced this?

A couple of thoughts.
Once you purchase an app, you will continue to get the update notification even if you delet the app. the notification is based on your purchase history and I don't think there is anything you can do to stop the update notices.
As for the email alert - no clue - but this is what I would do. Restart your iPad. Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. To start up again, hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Maybe the email alert will go away.

You got a new laptop? try asking there or in Lion forum.
If it has Lion, use the Recovery Mode boot Command-R
Use that to erase and reinstall - it has network install ability.
Want MacBook Pro forum or Lion Community?

HT1420 I'm trying to authorize my new work laptop. I only have 3 authorized devices, yet it keeps telling me I have 5!

I'm trying to authorize my new work laptop. I only have 3 authorized devices, yet it keeps telling me I have 5!

Authorisations only applies to computers, not to devices. Have you had other computers in the past and/or updated the OS on your current computers without deauthorising them ? You can safely 'deauthorise all' computers as described on the page that you posted from, it doesn't remove any content from them, it just means that you won't be able to use your iTunes downloads on them until you reauthorise them (which you should be able to do immediately).

My I tunes keep telling me you have a billing problem but I don't even buy stuff common!!!!

please how do I solve this problem my I tunes keep telling me I have a billing problem but I don't buy stuff bought a song one day and I paid for it done now I can't do envy thing ther is a billing problem I need this stuff sorted out now

Are you aware of any problem with a previous purchase ? If not then you should contact iTunes Support and see if they can tell you what it is (until it's sorted you won't be able to download anything from the store) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
If you go into the payment details section on your account then does it say anything about your card being declined or not accepter or if the security code needs re-entering ?

Stop Firefox from telling you, you have not used it in a while and asking to reset it permanetly.

I need to permanently, FOREVER, stop Firefox from telling me I have not used it in a while and prompting me to reset it. I have 100s of PCs that are frozen and as far as Firefox is concerned they ARE ALWAYS in need of being reset. This must go away. When Firefox starts on these PCs it MUST NEVER ask a question or prompt the user for anything EVER. All the decisions have already been made for the user and that MUST NOT CHANGE.

Thanks for the reply. I have heard that about the file, but I need to know how to tell Firefox that I don't care about when it was last used etc. I can delete the file, but it will come back. So the real answer I need is how to tell Firefox "not to check" when it was last used in the first place, not what file contains that information.
For now I will delete the file then, without starting Firefox I will freeze it and hope that will work. But Firefox needs a way that I can just tell it to not care.
Thanks again for help,
Ralph

Photoshop Elements Photoshop elements 12 keeps wanting me to register the product after installing but keeps telling me I have no internet connection or the clock is wrong, why does it keep asking me this? I have register online via the main webpage.

Hi,
You need to sign in when using Photoshop Elements 12 as it is the method of activation. If you sign out it deactivates that installation.
If you are having problems, see if the following helps.
Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later
Good luck
