Firefox not upgrading to 3.6.15 because I've not privileges, but I am the administrator!

I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 in a G5 iMac (OS X 10.4); when I wanted to upgrade to 3.6.15, I received the message «The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items». But I am the administrator and have disabled the password for Open Firmware and allowed cookies, &c. What more do I need to have the new version of Firefox?=

* Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
* Install the new version that you have downloaded.

    You can not do so. 4.2.1 is the end of the line for the 3G. You will have to access it using Safari or get a new phone.

  • Master List "Master List" is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host.

    Have used Master Lists for years without issue. After today's update all I get is the above error message.

    If you have an account on Bugzilla, please consider voting for that issue.
    Several other people have sent in the same support request as you, noting this happened after they upgraded to version 31.1.
    The exact error message is: XXXX is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the e-mail.
    This happens when your mailing list description includes several words separated by spaces.
    If you choose to update to the recent version, although not ideal, these workarounds should let you use your mailing lists until a proper fix is implemented:
    * While composing an email open the address book and select the list you are trying to send to, highlight all the names in the list and drag them to the To: box. This uses your existing data without modifying it.
    * Replacing the blanks " " between the words in such lists' descriptions with an underscore "_". This requires modifying your mailing list(s) description(s).

    I just fix my macbook air because it was kernel panic. They changed the hard drive. I could not back up with Time Machine, because it did not work and I had over Adobe creative suite 5 design premium student. But I finished my studies last year and I'd like to know how to get the serial number for me to reinstall Adobe creative suite 5 design premium when I am no longer study because I would still like the used? It is not fair if I do anymore because I really need.

    You can download Creative Suite 5 here:

    To deal with the issue of the serial number and using it again, you'll have to use Web Chat. Here's a link:

  • I threw up the box before installing photoshop elements 13 and now i can not installed my brand new photoshop because i do not have a serial number

    I threw up the box before installing photoshop elements 13 and now i can not installed my brand new photoshop because i do not have a serial number

    When you buy software, the serial number is really what you're buying, since the software is typically downloadable. So don't throw it away in the future.
    If you registered the software before you threw away your serial number, then Adobe may have a record of your purchase.

  • My iPad 3 running iOS 8.1 will not upgrade to 8.3. I have downloaded 8.3 but when I press install now and choose agree nothing happens for hours. Any help?

    MY ipad3 running iOS 8.1 does not upgrade to 8.3. I have downloaded 8.3 but when I press install now and choose agree, nothing happens for hours. Any help?.

    You are in the wrong discussion forum, but ok:
    -- You say it is running 8.1 now, but your profile says 6.1.3, plse update your profile.
    -- Did you download in Mac iTunes? or directly in the iPhone?
    if in Mac iTunes: check the following Finder location:   Startupdisk->Homefolder (yourname)->Library->iTunes->iPadSoftwareUpdates :  the downloaded file should be there and be complete the extension should be  .ipsw, if it is not there or not complete you should download again.
    if in the iPhone: notice that the install phase and verifying phase and restarting phase need (good) internet connection.

  • F&G Committee "F&G Committee" is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the e-mail.

    With this new v.31.1.0, released: September 2, 2014 version of Thunderbird, I can no longer e-mail to a Contact List of addressees, getting the error msg: F&G Committee <"F&G Committee"> is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the e-mail. In earlier versions, the individual e-mail addresses in the list (F&G Committee in this case) are automatically put in as the e-mail is sent. Is there a solution to this problem?

    Apple is selling Mac OS X 10.6 on their online store, and 10.7 by phone. The latest version of iTunes requires 10.6.8 or newer.

    I have been using the Firefox feature in which I could have multiple sets of tabs open but see only the set I was working with. I updated and now feature is gone. I had a small icon on the upper right side of my toolbar. I used it all the time to keep separate windows for news, financial items, travel plans, etc. Has this been removed from Firefox?

  • After I download the new version of firefox, it flashes that it cannot finish because I do not have privilages to certain things in the new version. Can you explain this?

    I get all through the downloading process and move it to my applications. It then ask me if I want to replace the old version with the new one. When I click on replace, a new window comes up with the fact that my computer does have privileges for some of the operations so I cannot complete the process. What really gets me though, is that it still pops up saying I need to download the new version. I do not know what to do.

    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 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • I recently bought a new computer and had all my files moved to it. Now when I sync my iPad and iPod I get a message stating that some (41) of my items can not be copied to my PC because it is not authorized even though it is authorized on my account.

    I recently got a new PC and had all of my files moved to it. However, when I sync my iPad and IPod nano I get a message that states that 41 of my items can not be copied to the PC because it is not authorized on my account even though it is. I have tried de-authorizing it and re-authorizing it but they still will not copy. Any thoughts on how I can get them to copy?

    "Note: If you no longer have access to a computer that is using one of your authorizations, you can deauthorize all of the computers associated with your account by following the steps at the bottom of About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization".
    Authorize the new computer. Launch iTunes. Go to the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.
    Sync your iPod.

  • Safari is not able to open this page because it can not find the server.

    I too need help with this problem with my Ipod touch. Currently, I am in the Ukraine, go to a wifi cafe, access the wifi and get a clear powerful signal. Then I try to load the Google page, any page from my bookmark or write the web address in and I receive the same message; "Safari can not open this page because it can not find the server." Something is wrong with my settings and I tried to reset the options but it does not work. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks!!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    The 169.254.xxx.xxx address indicates that there is a problem with DHCP server in your BT Digital Hub (Home hub?) because the iPod is taking a default IP rather than been given a suitable one. At the moment the iPod is not even in the same subnet as the router so it's no wonder that Safari can't find the Internet.
    Ensure that the DHCP server is on and that you have an IP-address pool sufficiently large to serve all the devices you have. I'd expect it to be 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253. If you have FON enabled you certainly need that wider range as other people may be using your router too.
