  • Firefox says I need to update my add ons and plug ins at startup after restarting my laptop

    I'm running 10.0.2 and I get multiple tabs when i first start firefox saying i need to install updated add ons. i go thru each one and click add and then restart firefox and all is fine. later when i turn my laptop back on and then start firefox I get the same message. firefox isn't saving or acknowledging that the add ons have already been installed. what do I need to do to fix this?

    thanks, it appears from searching the bitdefender forums that my BD 2010 is now an unsupported software and i could upgrade to 2012 free. after the upgrade all is well .

  • Firefox says I need to update Java plugin 2 but there is no available update on Apple software update

    no apple update

    Thanks for the info. I checked and the version of Java on my Mac is 1.60_29 (20.4-b02-402), which is the latest version for OS X 10.6.8, correct? I also note that I have a pop-up when I go into email which states that my browser is blocking Flash, and I should upgrade to Flash 9. I think that my version is Flash 11, and the plug in is up to date. I note a similar comment from another user. I updated to Firefox 11.0 on March 16th. No other changes. Java plugin still reads update

    I am running on 3.6 and screen constantly reminds me I am not on latest version however when I download it does not install - wht do I need to do to install after it is downloaded and saved?

  • Plug ins screen says I need to update Java, and when I do I'm told the install was stopped

    The Plug-Ins screen tells me I need to update Java. I click update and everything is fine until the install. I am told that 'the install failed because it was interrupted before it could be completed'. Java says that I am running the latest version, Version 7 update 51, but Firefox says I need to update. What gives?

    Long story short, you do not need to update.
    More info, please see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/990988 Firefox 28.0 is indicating that my installed Java SE 7 U51 is vulnerable (2014 03 20)].

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
    You can see the installed plugins on the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aplugins about:plugins] page.<br />
    If you set the pref plugin.expose_full_path to true on the about:config page then you see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.<br />
    It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.<br />

  • On YouTube, I can't play playlists there. It says I need to update my Java and it is updated already. When I go to different sites like Yahoo! the links and images are all distorted. This is the second time this has happened to me now

    Hello Firefox,
    I am having problems with my Firefox's image processor I believe. My web browser is fine but then a few minutes later I get some weird look on my page. It then just stays here and I can't fix it. When I go to Yahoo all the links and images do not look normal. I really cannot explain this and wish I could send a picture instead. When I go to the Log in page for Facebook I do not see the image of the small faces networking around the world. It's blank and the links are widely spread apart. With YouTube the page is also distorted. Nothing is arranged properly. I can watch videos. However when I go to someone's profile or a playlist videos cannot play or show up. It says I need to update my Java player and it is already updated. It still happens when I uninstall and re install back. I was only able to fix this problem by uninstalling everything related to Firefox. I do not know how to solve this any other way. I don't like it when all my information is lost such as saved passwords and bookmarks. If there is any way to solve this thanks. I don't want to uninstall this again.

  • Why, after updating plug-ins thru firefox's system [specifically adobe acrobat 10.1.4.38] it doesn't recognize it and says I need to update ?

    This has been happening on & off for awhile. I've tried updating thru firefox, uninstalling & updating in firefox, and within acrobat. It says its updating but the version doesn't change & can't find any evidence it did. Even uninstalling it still reinstalled 10.1.4.38 - the same version I've had since started using firefox.
    By the way, today I updated 'Shockwave Flash' thru same place & update said it still needed to update (cant remember which version it said) but I had disabled ''Shockwave for Director'. When I enabled it the update stopped saying it needed Flash update.
    Any chance there is a link between Acrobat & something else similar to the 'Director' that will assist in update recognizing it? A distant cousin-program?

    Thank you so much jscher2000. You must be a '''God of Geeks''' cause nobody would tell me what they are all for & whether I needed them or not. And there you just rattled them off like it was no effort at all. You are my lucky day - the kind that only happen once a year. Thank you, me & my freshly broken leg will appreciate it and now I'm downloading that Secunia program. Gonna find them buggers and fix my 'puter good! HAHA! 8)

  • HT1338 My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?

    It depends on what iPhone you have.
    If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
    If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

I download a driver from the site but the Mac would not open it. This system has an ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB graphics card. What do I need to do. Do I need a new Card?

    Vista Ultimate 64-bit recognizes 8 cores. 32-bit recognizes one physical cpu.
    I've had very little trouble in two years. And now I do like Windows 7 but also eager for the RC.
    I've been using the latest Nvidia. There is a method to the madness of how to uninstall/delete and install graphics drivers, or madness in the method. The W7 drivers are easier.
    Nope. Something else. More sensitive to disk errors. You aren't running a program to boost fans. Something.
    And some AV software is more prone to causing trouble. But all you need is a good AV/malware program, and even Norton AV 2009 is acceptable, or Avast or one of the others.
