Firefox used to download with Speed download along with other browsers, but since updating to version 6.0.2 it no longer does so; OS Z 10.6.8 and Speed Download v 5.2.28; what do I need to adjust and how, to get it working 'in the team' again, please?
I have had problems with Safari and OS 10.6.8 (I think caused by Apple getting ready for Lion!) but after a lot of uninstalling etc I now have Safari, Camino and Chrome (all most recent versions) automatically sending downloads to Speed Download.
Speed Download Plugin v 2.1.5 is installed; I do not know what or where to adjust or reset to get Firefox letting its downloads be picked up automatically once again like the other three browsers.
Lightning is a problem for you because it hooks into Thunderbird at a low level and you need a version compiled for the platform Thunderbird is running on. So you can't do the preferred solution, which is to put your whole profile in a shared folder and have both instances of Thunderbird reference the same profile. (Ditto for Enigmail). Lightning may become an integral part of Thunderbird in an upcoming release, at which point this limitation due to Lightning should disappear.
And if you can't use a shared profile, you can't set your Lightning, or your Address Book, to share a common set of files. Put another way, the linkage from Thunderbird to its address book files and calendar data is hard-coded, and not exposed where we can adjust it. :-(
The halfway house is to place your mail stores in a shared place, and use the Local Directory setting in each account's settings to connect to it. They don't need to be in the profile; what's more important in your case is that they are in a folder accessible to both operating systems.
Look in your profile; everything under Mail and ImapMail needs to be moved out to a shared folder. Note the entries in Thunderbird under Local Directory before you do this, and reconstruct those pathnames in Thunderbird, but adjusted to suit their new locations.
(You can see here that you need to make many adjustments, one per account, in each instance of Thunderbird, so it's a high-maintenance solution and this is why we don't recommend it when the alternative, moving the whole profile, is possible.)
I share address books and calendars between Thunderbirds on various computers (and my phone and tablet) by syncing to something in the cloud; Google Contacts and Google Calendar are my choices, using gContactSync and CalDav.
Having made the break myself some years ago, I'd recommend you break away from Windows. ;-)

I'm on 8.6 and want to upgrade to 10.3 - what do I need to know and watch 4
I'm on 8.6 and want to upgrade to 10.3 - what do I need to know and watch out for. I have a friend who lost all of thier i-tunes when they upgraded. I do not want that to happen. Will I loose other information ie - email addresses? Any suggestions and help are welcome for a smooth transition.
David, welcome to the discussions.
Look this link over and see if it answers your questions.
I would get anything you need to keep from OS8 on an external of some sort or back it all up so you can retrieve it.

We are facing issue to open a static form PDF in Chrome Browser
, which is loaded using Adobe FormService.
Able to open in other browsers but not able to open the static
forms in chrome with LC 11.0 version
Below error message:
The document you are trying to load
requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher. You may not have the Adobe Reader installed
or your viewing environment may not be properly configured to use Adobe Reader.
For information on how to install Adobe Reader and configure your viewing
environment please see http://www.adobe.com/go/pdf_forms_configure.
Please let us know do we have any option for disabling
<NoXFA/> tag by calling formService. RenderPDF() method on adobe service
For dynamic forms its working by adding <NOXFA/> in
DDX xml . only for static forms its not working because we are not using
assembler service for this forms.
Please let us know how we can disable XFA in static forms??????????????????If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem. -
I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
I thank you in advanceIf a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

I have had Adobe XI for about two years and My harddrive just crashed. My backups were part of the failure so I can't get it back. I purchased it from a third part supplier and it was a download. I need to find out how to get it restored. I can send screen shots of all of the drive location where the drive is still good and I can see my Adobe Acrobat pro information, but the download itself is missing. NEXT STEP?
If you are talking about Reader (you did post in the Reader forum), then just download http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise. However Reader is free not purchasable. You can download a trial then install using your serial number, which if you didn’t register or write down somewhere you will be out of luck to track down.
Download a free trial or buy Adobe products | Adobe downloads -

Have an IMac 7.1, desktop system 10.4.11, 2.8 GHz, 4MB, 4GB. what can I upgrade to? What do I need to buy and how high can I go?
You can replace one of the 2 GB RAM sticks with a 4 GB stick for a total max. RAM of 6 GBs.
Here are the specs.
Maximum Memory
6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
2 - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
Purchase reliable Mac RAM from online vendors Crucial or OWC (Other World Computing).
The highest OS X version you can go is OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
First, though, you need to purchase a retail disc version of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard in order to download upgrade to OS X 10.8.
Purchase OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard here.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Use Software update, in OS X Preferences Pane to update to the latest version of OS X 10,6 Snow Leopard before upgrading OS to 10.8 Mountain Lion.
OS X 10,6.8 will install the Mac App Store icon in OS X's Application Dock.
From there, you can launch the Mac App Store and download and install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
Use Sofware Update again to update to the latest version of Mountain Lion.
Be advised, you may want to play around in OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard before updating to OS X 10.8 Mt. Lion.
Some users aren't happy with the Hybrid OS X/iOS functionality of OS X 10.8 Mounatin Lion.
If you upgrade to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and aren't happy with it, the only way to return to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is wipe the internal drive, reformat it, then reinstall OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
You might want to consider purchasing an external FireWire hard drive, format it so you can install OS X 10,6 Snow Leopard and all of its updates onto the internal drive, use a copying/cloning app like Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to make a duplicate of your internal drive to the external FireWire drive as a backup that you can reinstall onto your internal drive just in case you find you are not happy with the look and functionality of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
Good Luck! -
I am using the window xp and firefox 6.
I watch the youtube videos online.
How I get that video from the catch folder and where that catch folder are situated in the window xp.''How can I view or retrieve a video from Firefox's cache''
To actually view/retrieve the file from the cache and its web address you can use
the "Cache Viewer" extension 32.8KB
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox.htm#cacheviewer
For you to be able to view the cached file you would have had to have watched the entire file.
The latest version of the extension is 0.7b available in all versions you would have to override compatibility by any of these methods
* checking or pick up one of the xpi versions in the reader comments for Firefox 6.0
* extensions.checkCompatibility.6.0 set to False
*: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility
* or with an extension "Add-on Compatibility Reporter" (84.0 KB) seems preferred in this group
*:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
There are also extensions such as Video downloader 132.8 KB
* Download YouTube Videos + Flash Video Downloader / Download-Helper
*:https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/download-youtube-videos/

We have mac os x 10.6.8 I wanted to load iCloud but it is not in system preferences. Does that mean I cannot add it to my imac? If I can, what do I need to do?
You need 10.7.5 or later for iCloud.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
B. Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
Trying to watch a video on quick time player and i keep getting this message You may need to install additional software to open this type of file. what do i need to install and how
I believe there is a technique which uses some similar suggestion to unwittingly tempt the user into installing malware, in order to be able to watch some (usually sexually explicit) video, so be aware of this ruse.
The only things I would download would be Perian that extends Quicktime, available here,
http://www.perian.org/
and if that did not do it, then try VLC to use instead of Quicktime. -
I just purchased Adobe Acrobat Standard DC andf upgraded from Acrobat XI. When I instalkled it on my PC the print Production Tools were there and functional. I installed it on my Laptop and those tolls are not there. What do I need to do to have Print Production Tools on both computers?
This is quite odd. I wonder if you could try something for me on EACH computer.
Use Help > About Adobe Acrobat DC.
At the top of the box it should say Adobe Acrobat Pro DC or Adobe Acrobat Standard DC.
On each of the two machines, what does it say? (I think something odd has happened) -

What do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?
what do i need to uninstall and reinstall photoshop cs5 extended windows 7 32-bit?
Photoshop CS5 Extended suddenly stopped recognizing my NVIDIA 3D card (NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800M). No 3D graphics will work in Photoshop. An Adobe online tech worked with me on it for about an hour. We concluded that I would go try to update the NVIDIA driver. The NVIDIA website is frustrating. The boxes to input my card model and system do not work.
Nawang uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop (my question below was about how to do that, but he did it for me and that did not help.)
My card is 3D capable. I used Repousse 3D effect two days ago and it worked fine. Now it is not working, all 3D controls are grayed out.
