Firefox update page is not accurate

When I go to the plugin check update page it tells me that quicktime is not up to date. my quicktime is up to date. this is just a current example, this has happened before with java and flashplayer

I'm going to hit two birds with one stone here:

The Java error you are experiencing is a bug in Mozilla's site. If you navigate to http://mozilla.org/plugincheck, it actually tells you that Mozilla '''IS''' aware of this problem and is in the process of fixing it. There has also been a bug filed

The latest version of Quicktime is 7.7.5 and that's why the plugin site is telling you it is out of date. You can upgrade by downloading the latest Quicktime update:

Firefox Updated page will NOT go away!

Start page is set to blank. Home page is set to nothing. Yet every time I open Firefox I get the stupid "Hooray your Firefox is up to date!" message as well as the header that asks if I'll help Mozilla improve by monitoring my browsing, to which I ALWAYS click no. I've cleared the cache a zillion times, and this is just annoying! Is anybody else experiencing this or have any ideas?

See these articles for some suggestions:

I do not want the Firefox update page to load. I want only the Home page to load.

When i first access the internet through Firefox, I get both the Firefox update page and my
requested Home page. I am unable to only get the Homepage even though this is the
setting in my control panel.
Basically i am getting two tabs at startup and only want the one.

[[Firefox says it's just updated every time it starts - how to fix]]

Firefox update page keeps opening in a new tab every time I open Firefox. How do I stop this?

Every time I open up Firefox, the update checking window opens first, then I get 2 tabs that open. One is my home page, the other is the page that opens after a new version of Firefox is installed. How can I get the Firefox update page to stop opening? I had the same thing happen with the "Download Helper" add-on. The only way I could get it to stop was to disable it. I am running windows 7 and Firefox 9.

FireFox home page does not always display correctly, hence I cannot do anything

On my Dell laptop the FireFox home page does not always fully display. When this happens I cannot access several web sites and some that I can do not display correctly either. On some occasions everything works correctly.
I have 2 Dell Inspiron laptops the same except one is running Vista (the one that does not always work) and one running Windows 7 (this one has no problems).

On firefox 5 why do I get a firefox update page appear along with my chosen homepage - I have checked options and it doesn't appear there?

it strted to appear after the update to Firefox 5 and each time I open up a fresh webpage, I automatically get the update page too. I haven't asked for it to do so and have been in tools and Options to check where this might have come f rom without solution.

App update page will not open,help.

When using the app's store update in which it says there is 3 updates, the update page will not open, just a blank page, can anybody help?

There is a problem with Apple’s servers that only they can fix. The problem has been going on for several days. You can try rebooting first and see if that gets the apps to show up in the updates tab.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
This is a workaround only and not a fix. If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
Select update on the Apps
Hopefully the red notification number will go away after the updates are applied.
Another option is to update your apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the updated apps to the iPad.
1. Launch iTunes
2. Click on Apps in the list under the Library heading in the left Sidebar.
Click on Updates at the top in the window on the right
Update all of the apps
Connect your iPad and Sync with iTunes
If you do not see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.

After Firefox update, pages are redirected whenever I type a letter or try to enter url, different redirects based on letter I type. Opens a windows explorer window, goes to original login, opens Start/Run window with cmd in box etc.

Please send some advice if you have any ideas of how to solve this issue.
The info that is shown about my computer is not accurate. The machine with the problems below is running 64 bit Vista but I cannot access a site like this one due to the constraints listed below.
I fell for what I thought was a Firefox update but since installing it, when entering a URL, I am redirected back to original computer log in / password entry box. If I use my browser window drop down list I can get into something like Facebook and move around but as soon as I try to type any letter into a 'comment' box, I am redirected to both a Windows Explorer type page showing my various drives and another Window from my Start/Run with the dialog box open with cmd entered in it already. Certain typed letters don't show up at all when trying to enter a 'comment' on Facebook while various letters get various different responses. It is impossible to enter any URL or use my browser other than the items in my drop down. Once there, say to my bank account, I cannot enter any password as I am immediately redirected to someplace else upon trying to type a letter or character. I don't know how to get my browser working. I have tried IE as well and the same thing happens. All started after the supposed upgrade of Firefox. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you.

as the header says
firefox updates and takes me to the update landing page everytime i start firefox, i have tried 5.0 and 3.6 it does it with both and never happened before i installed 5.0 for the 1st time
its getting annoying

Is your homepage getting changed to the same URL every time you open Firefox?
What's happening sure sounds like you picked up some Malware, , that you may not be aware of, along with a homepage changer of some type.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Getting rid of Firefox update page

Does anyone know how to get rid of the "thanks for updating" page that opens on the first tab in firefox after it's been updated? We have a guest account that refreshes the home directory upon login (this is prior to the 10.6 guest account that's being offered now). I'm trying to blast out the FF update to my lab stations and the guest account keeps on opening up with the FF update page because it doesn't save state from the previous user who logged in. Is there a pref file that i can edit to get rid of that page or some other file i can edit? I definitely need to maintain all the other prefs (eg. bookmarks etc.)
Thanks!

I guess I should have been more clear about the idiosyncrasies of our setup since it's not that easy. Our "Guest" login account is almost like a kiosk account in that it's based off of a custom default user template that has all the prefs and bookmarks etc. stored so that even though the account gets wiped out upon every login, so as to create a fresh experience for each subsequent user, the experience is always consistent. We used Mike Bombich's script from years past & as per his description: This script removes a default user home directory and replaces it with a fresh copy from a template.
Thus, I COULD edit & save the FFOX prefs so as to get rid of the FFox "Thanks for updating homepage tab" BUT that would require me to update all the user template files associated in FFOX's profile stored in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/* on every station in the labs.
I would much rather, on a granular lever, know exactly which file and which line of code I need to edit and, en masse, send a batch unix cmd to all the lab stations to update that particular file.
Any ideas on this? I'm sure someone knows the answer to this. Hope I've cleared up my requirements too.
Tx!

When i open the add ons page in firefox the pages do not display correctly the pages only show text and are in lists

when i click on the add ons tab the page does not show correctly. There are no graphics just text. It is difficult to view the page details. If you click on a link within the page the next page opens with exactly the same problem. All other tabs and pages open and display correctly

Hi,
If you're using a theme you can try to temporarily switch to the '''Default''' theme in Tools > Add-ons > Appearance. If the problem persists, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

App Store Update Page will not find or install 10.2.3

I am having trouble with the App Store recognizing and downloading the update to OS 10.2.3. It worked fine on my MacBook Air, but is giving the following problems on my Mac Pro and iMac, both of which are running 10.2.2:
1 Either the Updates page just keeps spinning with the ball looking for an update (or)
2. The update page says "No Updates Available".
It does give me the option to manually download OS X, but gives the waring that I already have 10.2.2 and it would be quicker to use the updates page. Any suggestions? Thanks!

My firefox custom page does not come up when i click the firefox icon w/mac

For the last 3 days when I click the firefox icon on my mac i get the plain igoogle page. My custom page does not automatically come up as befoe. Then I have to reset the i google password everytime then get to my page

Ok, lets do a couple of steps here first:
To make sure your windows isn't corrupted because of the power outage, let's run chkdsk.
Click on My Computer, then right click your C: Drive (if you have other hard drives, you will want to run this on them as well). Then, click Properties. Inside that window, go to the Tools tab. Inside that tab, open up the "Check Now" button. That will open a smaller window. Select the checkbox to "Automatically fix file system errors", then hit Start. You will probably receive an error asking if you want to schedule the disk check, click Yes, then restart your computer.
Read [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265] for more information.
After running the chkdsk, then please go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and download a fresh version of Firefox. I'm assuming you are using Internet Explorer to download Firefox. Instead of hitting Run, let's try hitting save. Remember where it saves the installer file on your computer.
After the download has finished, double-click and run the Firefox install. Once it is finished, try to start Firefox up. Let me know how it goes!

Iweb updated page does not display correctly in firefox or safari

www.rohanstevenson.com
tried to update my site with a couple of cues and the wheels have completely come off. i cannot get the site to display correctly.
it looks a bit better if i open the page directly from the computer, but after sending it to ftp host it will not load up properly in the browsers.
i have no idea what is going on and i rather desperately need that site back up and running
help!!

This is happening probably because the text encoding on your server end is set wrong. Or perhaps your FTP program is doing the encoding differently. This is commonlly seen when uploading iWeb pages to 3rd party servers and can be corrected.
Our own Tom Gewecke has a nice writeup about these strange looking characters that can appear. He also has some suggestions about what to check and what to do. Check it out and see if any of it might be relevant to your situation. If not come on back and we'll keep trying to troubleshoot with you...
