Firefox won't allow me to upgrade from the 1.5.0.6 version to the 3.5.2 version. What do I do?
My actual version is too old, on most websites they keep telling me to upgrade my browser. Ever since I downloaded the 3.5.2 version the problem is even worse: a window keeps opening to ask me to either continue or stop the script...
When I try to override the older version, a pop-up tells me that I don't have enough "privileges" for the newer version...???
Okay, I will try to uninstall the old version, but I have no idea what IE means nor what a FF profile is... I am new to Mac and I know zero about keeping a computer up to date. This one was given to me a year ago and I have had no problems whatsoever until I tried to update my Firefox a few weeks ago. Ever since then, I have problems on most websites and I can't vision a pps in my email without fiddling with the settings a bit. My photo library keeps disappearing out of my Iphoto app and I have never been able to open any e-mail attachment with a .wmv
Other than that, everything is peachy-keen and I will NEVER go back to a regular PC with windows! I love my Mac! I just know nothing about how to take care of it and keep it up to date :0(
Thank you for taking the time to answer me!

Glad it helped. I can relate to not bringing your A game... I had (minor, outpatient) surgery this morning. I'm still in Percocet happy land. LOL
Hope the small feels better. -

You generally need Perian for FLV and AVI files, and the free version of Flip4Mac for WMA or WMV files. Some files simply can't be opened on the Mac.

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7780. Recently it won't allow me to print from websites, The only way I can print is to 'copy' it to a word document then print. ANy suggestions as this has only recently been an issue.
Trying running the Print Diagnostic Utility and see if it finds any errors http://http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-91799-1&lc=en&dlc=en... . If that does not fix the issue try uninstalling the software and reinstalling it.

My Time Capsule won't allow my computer to back up. It says it is already in use but that is what it is being used for. It has been working fine for years. All of a sudden I keep getting a message that TC (time capsule) cannot complete back up as it is already in use. I am doing the backups automatically through Time Capsule.
Restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting and reconnecting the power adapter. When it's back online, open the AirPort Utility application and check to see whether there's a firmware update for it.

HI, SO I BOUGHT MOUNTAIN LION ON MY MACBOOK PRO TRYING TO UPGRADE FROM SNOW LEOPARD, AND WHILE TRYING TO REINSTALL THE OS SETUP AS IT SHOWED IT COULDNT BE VERIFIED, I CROSSED OUT MOUNTAIN LION FROM MY PURCHASES, ITS NOW GONE, DO I HAVE TO BUY IT AGAIN?
Please google search for "Mountain Lion disk crash" before upgrading you mac pro. You might need to replace you Mac hard drive after the upgrade.So many people had the same problems including me.
Be aware of the Mountain Lion upgrade problem. -
Lightroom 6 is up and running. Upgraded from LR5. However I want to change the file name to be more generic, e.g., description in LR5 references LR5 and I want to change that to just John G's LR Catalog/Library.lrcat. How can I accomplish this without fouling everything up?
Ok, well you'll need to do something like this. Now this part is a little dependent on your database server:
try {
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:mysql://{database-server}/{database-name}:3306?user={username}&password={password}");
Statement Stmt = c.createStatement();
int count = Stmt.executeUpdate(cmd);
if(count>0) {
System.out.println("count: " + count);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}That was some sample code for a MySQL database.
Note that the applet can only contact the server that is was loaded from, so you might want to do a getCodeBase() or something like that to get the server address.
Hope this is helpful. -
I am trying to license my recent download of Lightroom 5 onto my recently purchased Macbook with the serial number of the disk I purchased last year for my Windows PC (an upgrade from Lightroom 4). I receive an error "The serial number you entered is invalid". Why does CC not recognize this as a valid serial number?
Soyouca how did you install Photoshop Lightroom? Please uninstall the current installation using the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers.
Once Photoshop Lightroom is removed please download a fresh copy of the installation files from Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh. The update contains the full installer so please download the latest version of Photoshop Lightroom 5.
You may be asked to enter your serial number for Photoshop Lightroom 4. You can find information on how to locate the serial numbers under your account at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. -
All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen. For example i go to my email and i cant click on inbox, send, create, folders, mark as unread. It is like this on every website?? Its really annoying i cant do anything becasue most sites have login at the top of the screen and i cant login to anything.
That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

Looking to upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium to the latest.
I am looking to upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium to the latest. We are running on an isolated network without access to the Internet. Looking for advise on how best to proceed.
As far as upgrading goes, you will not have that option for CS3 as it is not in the upgrade path for CS6. You will have to purchase the full version of CS6. I don't know if buying the disk is still an option, but if you have to you can download the installation file(s) and copy to a removeable media and install using that. In order to activate it you will have to perform an offline activation.
Here are some links that might be of help...

When upgrading from 10.7 to 10.8.2, are the system.log files backed up anywhere?
One of my clients needs to confirm whether a USB device was plugged into their computer between two dates in September 2012 because they're worried some sensitive data may have been stolen. However, their computers were upgraded from 10.7 to 10.8.2 on the 29th of November 2012, and since the kernel.log and system.log files have now been combined in this update, it has obviously created a new file in the new format. Sadly, this has only come to light now, and there appear to be no backups of the whole drive from before this date.
Does anyone know if the 10.7 logfiles would have been preserved anywhere during the upgrade, or are they lost for good?No, the merging operation deletes the old files during upgrading the OS X. Have you tried searching even hidden files starting at the root level so see if anything has been hidden away somewhere? I haven't seen the upgrade do that but if this is really important it may be worth the effort.

After upgrading from Vista 64 64 bit to Window7 64bit the DVD stopped working
After upgrading from Vista 64 64 bit to Window7 64bit the DVD at first worked just fine but after about 7 months it just stopped responding as if the hardware as in the DVD Dive it compatible with Windows 7. I have reinstalled the full Windows 7 that I got from HP but it still has the same problem and when I try a full recovery it will start to read the recovery DVD but it take way to long like 15 mins just to start reading and it stops reading with error's after about 2 min's into it.
Were is the errors that I get
This PC in not supported by the system recovery disc. you will not be able to continue to recover this system with these disks.
keep in mind that the problem lies with the DVD drive not working and like stated above it will work if Windows Vista 64 is installed so this error message is not the key to the problem just part of it.Fixed the mic issue by running Windows Update and installing the latest audio drivers.

Firefox will not start after I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.04.
I was using Firefox without issue on Ubuntu 8.04. I then upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. Firefox would not start after upgrade. Message said it was already running!
I checked the System Monitor and saw it was "sleeping". I ended process. Firefox then would start, however..... I always have to go into System Monitor before I start Firefox to stop it from running (sleeping) even if I already just quit the program or after a fresh reboot.
I do not use a firewall or virus program.
My router has some sort of firewall hardware, and it is the same router I used with 8.04 with no problem.
What is going on? Why is the program sleeping when I try to start it. Why do I always get the message that it is already running (and I have to shut it down) before I can start it.
It is either a Ubuntu problem or a Firefox problem.
Sonny.''Crashes at startup can occur in Firefox 7 or above (but not Firefox 6 or earlier) if you are using a corporate login system such as IBM Tivoli Access Manager or Oracle Enterprise Single Sign On Manager ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680927 bug 680927]). '''See the bug report for a suggested workaround''' or downgrade to Firefox 3.6.xx (available [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all-older.html here]) which is still being maintained.''
Ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes#Crash_when_starting_Firefox
The workaround for the crash is linked [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=563484 HERE], under "Attachments" in the bug report. When you click that link it will show the contents of the .reg file (you can save the page as "ff7fix.reg" on your computer, and then merge it into the Windows registry, f you are comfortable doing that). -

When adding a bookmark sometimes the web page name is too long. I used to be able to use my mouse, highlight the letters/words that I don't want, then use delete to truncate the desired bookmark name. Since the latest update/upgrade, Firefox won't let me use the mouse to click anywhere in the popup box. I can only use the arrow keys and the delete key.
Nothing other than updates (using Mac Software Update and Firefox Update) has been done to this computer (it's a 2002 Power Mac G4-Dual 1.25GHz).When adding a bookmark sometimes the web page name is too long.
