Firefox recommends I upgrade but when I click OK, it never happens. Very retarded

Just about every day when I open Firefox, it asks me if I want to upgrade. I have tried to click yes, no, close the window, pray to Jesus....but nothing makes it stop. I would be glad to download this phantom upgrade it it would let me. Perhaps a human being can actually help me with this (I know that's a lot to ask for in this stupid world we live in). When I click YES and try to download this upgrade, a progress bar comes up and never changes. I usually end up quitting Firefox and giving up using the internet for the day due to my annoyance. REALLY STUPID.

If exist problem with update or permissions it is better and easiest to download and install the new version:
1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
2. '''Trash''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

  • Can't access suggestions in Google toolbar dropdown since upgrading to F4.Suggestions appear but when I click on one nothing happens.

    Can't access suggestions in Google toolbar dropdown since upgrading to F4.Suggestions appear but when I click on one nothing happens - it just returns to what I've typed already.
    eg If I type the word 'honey' a number of suggestions appear. One is 'honey crackles'. If I click on that I'm back to 'honey' again

    My toolbar is missing and there is a button at the top left that asks me to "Please re-install the Toolbar" but when I click on it nothing happens???
    Then when I start Mozilla I get a long delay before it launches and a script running error "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
    Script: chrome://tavgp/content/libs/include.js:595"

    what version of iPHoto do you have? Of the OS? is the iPhoto icon you are speaking of in the Dock?
    re-read your post and try to provide information using standard Mac terms since we can not see you or your computer and only have your worrds to let us try to help you
    Somehow my "IPhoto" icon now says "Preview".  When I click on "Preview" nothing opens up except the bar says Preview.  When I click on the Preview on the bar, a box opens up with different items, except when I click on any of them, there is nothing there.  The only thing that work is the "quit preview".  However, it is still there where my IPhoto icon should be.  I can't get into my IPhoto.  How do I get rid of this "Preview" and how did it end up taking over the IPhoto icon???
    If you go to your Applications folder and double click on iPhoto what happen?

  • I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap

    I cannot get the Output Module to work. I was able to get the button to show up, but when I click on it, nothing happens. i need to export a PDF asap. I am trying to export 33 PSD files in BRIDGE to a PDF like I used to do on my other computer with bridge.

    Let's start with the general things.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • After I sync my iPad to my macbook air, I can't open my apps on my computer. The apps are there in itunes but when I click on them nothing happens. Why??

  • HT1349 I do not have an APPLE.  But I downloaded ITunes on my HP computer.  I also paid for Miss Kitty slot machine and it says it has been downloaded.  But when I click on it nothing happens.  HELP !!!!!!

    First of all, I do not have an Apple anything.  I just down loaded ITUNES onto my HP dekstop computer.  It went in with no trouble.  I also paid, and downloaded Miss Kitty Slot Machine App.  It was downloaed, it says.  But, when I click on it, nothing happens.  I am new to all this stuff, what am I doing wrong?  PLEASE HELP !!!!!

    Hi,
    The items that you can purchase from iTunes in the form of apps are for either an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) or for Mac Computers.
    The chances are the app you have downloaded is either written for an iPhone or iPad (iOS device -although even then there can be differences) or for a Mac computer (even then it may be OS version specific)
    In a search for "Miss Kitty Slot" in iTunes I found this
    It says it is an iPhone App.

  • I am showing firefox in my tray but when I click on it, it will not open to a full screen. I have been using it up until today without a problem in Windows 7

    When I put my mouse over the firefox icon in the lower tray it shows small pictures of the home page but when i click on these they will not open to a full page. I am using windows 7. This problem just started today. I can use internet explorer without a problem. Thanks for any assistance you can give. I contact HP and they said to contact your support as they only support internet explorer.

    below is what I get with the dev.jeffersonscher.com etc. url. But what do I do with this information? I can launch safe mode, but I still get only the 2" icon/window of Firefox.

  • Installed Lightroom CC but when I click on icon nothing happens.

    I installed the new Lightroom CC but when I click on the desktop icon nothing happens. Any idea why not?

    To All who signing out and signing in isn't resolving for you and are on Windows,
    This could still be licensing related---
    What if you try renaming both the SLCache and SLStore folders prior to launching Lightroom?
    Locations of both of these folders are located in Solution 3 of this document: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/unable-launch-lightroom-55.html
    If you'd like to change permissions first as a test, then renaming the folders and report back the findings of both methods, that'd be great!
    Let us know how it goes.

  • Firefox was working previously but when I click to open it all I get is the top blue Windows bar with Mozilla Firefox labeled in it and a blank white window. What happened to everything?

    June 25 my virus software detected a threat from milkiwals.com and zonedg.com. Although the virus software said it contained the threat, I continued to get a widow opening asking if I wanted to run an unknown program in a sandbox, and the same threat alerts would continue every few minutes. I then noticed a new exe running in the task manager labeled conhost.exe. I removed it to the trash the threats stop, but would come back when I did a restart, so I did a system restore to June 24. I restarted the computer with no more alerts. I thought everything was fixed so I shut down the system for the night. But when I restarted the computer on the 26 I got the above describe Firefox problem.

    This began to happen to me when I tried to run two separate profiles simultaneously on the same installation of firefox with -no-remote

  • I am getting a message "iPad Not Backed Up" but when I click on "ok", nothing happens.  Can't turn it off either because of the lock.

    I am getting a message "iPad Not Backed Up".  When I click on "ok" on the message, nothing happens - it is locked.  Thought turning off the iPad would help but because it is locked, it won't let me slide to power off.

    Have you tried plugging the iPad into power and letting it backup over Wi-Fi?
    You should be able to reset your iPad.
