Get off of Beta release channel

Hello. I want to get off of the beta channel but have run into a snag. I went to uninstall FF prior to reinstalling, but there is only a FF 15 listed in my Control Panel and this will not initiate an uninstall. My browser shows that I am on v 17. I am wanting to opt out of the beta as flash is continually crashing. Then it will work for a couple of days, then an update hits and back to the same problems. I'm not sure if I should just do an install as I don't want to lose my settings etc. Thanks very much.

I decided to spend more time trying to find out why Vista won't let me edit the pref file. It was a permissions issue. It took awhile and a tutorial to figure out how to add myself as a user with additional permissions to write to that file, but I finally did, which fixed the problem.
However, it remains so that this is WAYYYYYY too complicated. It is hard to believe that the program offers no options to get off a beta release channel other than going into a java script file and editing it.

  • Ffs Adobe get off your ***** and release 8.1.2 already

    Must a January release actually mean the 31st of January? Don't you understand that people are relying on your software and these delays are driving us crazy.

    Printing via preview is good enough for me. The problem is scanning to pdf. My wife creates Astrology charts for people and she sends them as pdf via email. Using the built in OSX PDF creator doesn't create the right files because they are very big and they dont have the embedded fonts in the Astrology charts. The software she uses is OSX only.
    This stupid Leopard / Acrobat problem is killing her business. She is losing about 500 EUR a day because of this - but worse, she has had to shut down all her orders so she doesn't upset customers. So she is advertising a service but can't take any orders - all because Adobe can't get their act together and deliver what they promised.

  • Need help getting off beta channel

    I....Like so many other people I've been reading about, somehow ended up on the beta channel with an update I do not want. I was running version 16 (my choice) and ended up with version 20. I want to get off the beta channel and stay off so that I can update when I choose to do so and not when Mozilla wants me to. So any instructions on how to go about doing that would be greatly appreciated. I do see other posts with the same issue and I guess I can follow those instructions but I figured maybe the instructions for my specific situation or OS I'm running or whatever the case may be might make the steps required to do this different from other posts I've been reading.
    Part of the solution I see others posting about is to uninstall and do a clean reinstall of a release version. My big concern in doing this is add-ons. I have a ton. Ad-Block, Auto Pager, milewideback, Stylish, etc., etc., etc. Are these going to all be there and still be installed and configured the same way after I uninstall and reinstall? I'm hoping that because they reside in the profiles folder as opposed to the program folder that the answer is "yes". Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    I'm running Windows Vista SP2

    Just want to echo these sentiments!
    I'm a longtime FF fan but it's getting so I spend more time trying to make it act the way I want than just browsing!
    If I didn't hate Chrome so much I'd be gone too :-(

    For BIOS Update: >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<

    Hey guys real quick. So after updating to the new 7670IMS>310 bios so that I may use my GTX780s, I reinstalled with windows 8. Everything was fine until I was on teamviewer just last nite and upon switcing sides my bios got corrupted. How do I know you ask? Upon getting back into windows my LANS did not work so I had not internet connection. I tried uninstalling it from Device Manager and deleting it. After a few clrmos. I thought I would switch over to the other bios and see if the LAN works and it does because of the status lights because now it lights up. So I switch back to main bios and LAN works but it would not post whatsoever and just cycles through post finally ending with a " DE ". Not sure what the new LED DEBUG codes are but if someone could post it would be nice to be able to refer to it.
    Anyways on win 8, no matter what it will not let me into windows And when it looks like it will...gives me "your pc ran into problems and we are collecting data and we'll restart after" message. After a few of these wonderful messages, I decided I was going to flash my bios again. It did look like I was sucessful until after restart it did the same thing. Going through post I saw 19,15 then shuts off. Does this and ends with "DE" pc still on but nothing. No windows.
    I got lucky a few times and was able to get into my bios and decided I was going back to Win 7 64......I put the good ole XFX6990 back in and got windows 7 to reinstall and continue to flash my bios to an older one. I used your method before and it work> from 3.0 back to 1.5 then from 1.5 back to 1.2 for OC purposes. So i tried that method but it looked like it just reflash it with 3.1, odd.
    So after a few restarts everything seems fine, no cycles just normal. When I reboot normal process no double boots or cycles this time so I thought hey, that fixed my corrupted bios somehow. I thought I gotten lucky.... So I switch out the good old 6990 and in with my 780s. Reinstalled win 7 and upon completion of windows update. Again with the cycles of 19,15 turns off does this again over and over like 5 or 6 times and ends with "DE"
    And this is where I'm at atm. I remember when I DL'd the flasher and bios. I only saw 2 files which was " VALVE CHECK AND E7670IMS.310".
    When I tried to do it again with the same method as the first I have "
    #BIOS
    #BK_6.Z7
    #EFIFLASH
    #MSIHQ(icon)
    #MSIHQ_INFO
    #MT420"
    This time it does not go through the same when flashing, just tells me bios update complete. I've done this a million times and all have been successful.
    Basically I'm still on 3.1 bios but I 'm curious as what other methods do you suggest I try now? I have left everything alone after reinstalling windows and updates. Everything seems okay, reboots fine no cycles and still get the random hit or miss with 15,19 turns off cycles and ends with "DE". Would like to get a resolution if possible. Thank you and I know I said real quick right, but really. Thanks for any help.
    I'm going nuts!!

  • UMS Portlet (Beta Release) available for download

    What are we announcing?
    The beta release of the Unified Messaging Service (UMS) portlet is available for download on Portal Studio from Integration Solutions page. The UMS Portlet makes available to Oracle9iAS Portal users the abilities to send SMS messages, Emails, Voice notifications, Fax and WAP Push messages on a single web interface. These messaging capabilities are provided by the Oracle Notification Service (ONS, formerly the Push Service). By hosting this portlet, you automatically get a free trial account with the ONS service. Please send your comments, suggestions, and evaluations of this beta release on this discussion forum.
    How can I use it?
    The Oracle Notification Service (formerly known as Push Service) is an Oracle online service that allows Oracle9i Application Server Wireless and Oracle9iAS Portal users to send SMS messages, Emails, Voice notifications, Fax and WAP Push messages in an easy to access manner without installing any new software. The Oracle Notification Service is hosted at Oracle's data centers and is managed and maintained 24x7 by highly skilled staff. Users connect to it as a Web Service using an XML SOAP API over HTTP/HTTPS. The UMS portlet abstracts this communication and multiprotocol, multidevice complexities for the Oracle9iAS Portal users.
    An Oracle9iAS Portal user can sign up for this service and pay per usage.The user of this portlet would need to register and get an account with Oracle9iAS Wireless Service. However, to encourage the use of this service, a trial account of 500 units per IP address has been permitted. For purchasing more units and know more about the pricing mechanism, you can send an e-mail to [email protected]
    More information on Oracle9iAS Wireless and Oracle Notification Service is available at http://otn.oracle.com/products/iaswe/content.html
    Currently, this portlet allows sending SMS, Voice Mails, E-mails, Fax and WAP Push Messages. Future extensions will include support for Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS).
    Using this portlet, a portal user can send the same message as an SMS to people who have mobile phones, as an Email to those who would be at office, as a Voice mail to an employee who is at home and doesn't have access to Emails or mobile phones. For example, this portlet can be used in a hospital web site where the staff can send instant requests to the doctors or can be used in a financial portal which informs users about the changes in his/her stock prices on the device they wish.
    How do I get it?
    This portlet is available through the Portal Integration Solutions page (http://portalstudio.oracle.com/servlet/page?_pageid=3189&_dad=ops&_schema=OPSTUDIO) on Portal Studio. You can download this portlet from the Download Integration Portlets page (http://portalstudio.oracle.com/servlet/page?_pageid=3191&_dad=ops&_schema=OPSTUDIO). You would be asked to enter your OTN user details to download the portlet.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Abhinav

    Hi,
    I few minor issues with the SMS Portlet have been resolved & the updated version is available for download from the same location.
    If you have any queries, please post them at this forum. Your feedback on this portlet would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Is a Beta release secure enough for e-commerce ?

    I know beta versions are generally''' not''' recommended as everyday browsers,but now that current Firefox betas are conceptually more like release candidates,are they stable and secure enough to be used for e-commerce (ebay and the likes) just like a normal release version? If nothing,they should receive security fixes before the release,whilst critical bugs should have already been dealt with in earlier stages,is that understanding correct?
    edit:yes this was posted with a nightly but the question was really aimed at current beta releases.

    Firefox 8.0 beta becomes a release version today 11/08 at 8am PST. Security is no issue with any version, as all supported versions are going to get an update today.

    i bought htc 8x verizon employee edition and when i update it and during installation with my error phone get off and now phone stuck on some wheel running thing and wont get on please tell me if i could download the rom or anything also

        Hi mnomi! Sorry to learn of the trouble you're running into with your new phone! Have you already switched the device via your My Verizon : http://vz.to/16lkVUY Once you have done this, and verify the sim card is inserted securely, the activation will begin. If the phone is stuck on the wheel and you cannot move forward, you may want to do an alternative reset. Please follow the below instructions:
    1) Ensure the device is powered off.
    2) Press and hold the Volume Down button (located on the right edge) until instructed to release in step 4.
    3) Press and hold the Power button (located on the top-right edge) until the device vibrates (approximately 2 seconds) then release.
    4) When the restore screen appears (exclamation mark), release the Volume Down button.
    5) From the restore screen, press then release the following keys to initiate the reset process:
    1. Volume Up button
    2. Volume Down button
    3. Power button
    4. Volume Down button
    *Allow several minutes for the process to complete (rotating gears appear on the display to indicate that the reset is in progress).
    If you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know. Keep us posted if this resolves your concerns. Thanks!

  • Im currently running Yosemite Beta 10.10, how do i upgrade to a non beta release of yosemite?

    Im currently running Yosemite Beta 10.10, how do i upgrade to a non beta release of yosemite? downloading yosemite in the app store doesn't work, i get a box that say my purchase couldn't be completed at this time. what can i do?

    This seems very odd that they would completely make an entire OS X release not available at all. This is also unfortunate because some of the software use has compatibility issues with Yosemite. Thanks for the responses I will contact my local retail store and post back if they give me more information or a solution.

    Tom,
    Just to add in some my thoughts.. You probably get more money from the OKP materials than the standard courses IMHO.  If you don't already have a license for the CRM 40, CRM 50 and CRM 2006s/2007 OKP materials then you should purchase it.  The OKP materials for CRM 40 almost cover the fundamentals of how the system works and the associated functionality.  It is quite easy then to pick each new release after reading the 40 baseline materials.
    You will probably learn more by working with a CRM sandbox or building actual scenario than what the classes can teach you.  The classes are good if you need an overview of the material and want to get away from your office and focus on learning.
    I have somehow managed to in the last several years to get by with very little classroom training, but tons of self study using the system materials and OKP materials.  I don't claim to know every aspect of CRM, but you can get things done on your own.
    Oh btw the material you found online is probably an illegal copy of that material. 
    Take care,
    Stephen

  • Jasper Reports Integration - beta release

    Hi guys,
    I have finally found the time to release the Jasper Reports Integration package for producing print ready reports.
    You can find all the details here: http://daust.blogspot.com/2010/01/jasper-reports-integration-beta-release.html
    Anybody is welcome to try the software and join the beta program.
    Thanks,
    ~Dietmar.

    Hi Wolfgang,
    Now it works as expected!That's the way I like it ;).
    I would like to save the report in a user table with a blob field, how can this be achieved?Easy, this is even already part of the test application.
    On the Report Tester tab you will find a button called "Get report as BLOB, then display". It calls the following page process:
    DECLARE
       l_blob        BLOB;
       l_mime_type   VARCHAR2 (100);
    BEGIN
       xlog ('PRC_GET_REPORT_TUNNEL', 'url (orig):' || :p5_report_url);
       -- generate the report and return in BLOB
       xlib_jasperreports.set_report_url (:p5_jasper_report_url);
       xlib_jasperreports.get_report
                                    (p_rep_name               => :p5_rep_name,
                                     p_rep_format             => :p5_rep_format,
                                     p_data_source            => :p5_data_source,
                                     p_rep_locale             => :p5_rep_locale,
                                     p_rep_encoding           => :p5_rep_encoding,
                                     p_additional_params      => :p5_additional_params,
                                     p_out_blob               => l_blob,
                                     p_out_mime_type          => l_mime_type
       -- set mime header
       OWA_UTIL.mime_header (ccontent_type      => l_mime_type,
                             bclose_header      => FALSE);
       -- set content length
       HTP.p ('Content-length: ' || DBMS_LOB.getlength (l_blob));
       OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
       -- download the file and display in browser
       WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file (l_blob);
       -- release resources
       DBMS_LOB.freetemporary (l_blob);
       -- stop rendering of APEX page
       apex_application.g_unrecoverable_error := TRUE;
    EXCEPTION
       WHEN OTHERS
       THEN
          xlog ('PRC_GET_REPORT_TUNNEL', SQLERRM, 'ERROR');
          RAISE;
    END;Once you have the blob you can store it in a database table, done!
    There is only one tricky part. Should the Tomcat throw an exception then it will return a html error page (http code 200=ok). The request is perfectly valid but a human can see the error message.
    The API should throw an exception on that. A bit tricky once other J2EE servers are supported or the error messages vary.
    BTW: do you plan any additional features ?Perhaps, what are you looking for?
    Cheers,
    ~Dietmar.

  • We do not understand what Mozilla Firefox means by Firefox Final Release Channel

    We are a university that uses the Blackboard Vista 8 product. In order for our students to complete their courses online in Blackboard, they have to use compatible and certified browsers. The Blackboard vendor has a website detailing which browsers the students should use. The URL is http://kb.blackboard.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=75071574. No one understands what the vendor (Blackboard) or Mozilla Firefox means by the phrase "Firefox (Final Release Channel)." Does this mean the latest version of Firefox? If so, why not say the latest version and where did the word "channel" come from and what does it mean? It's not explained anywhere on the Firefox website.

    Mozilla has 4 channels. In order of less to more secure and stable: Nightly, Aurora, Beta, Release.
    On the page you reference, "Final Release Channel" refers to Mozilla's "Release". These are versions that have been completed and "pushed" out for download by everyone. The most current version is always available at https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/ (currently, Firefox 6.0).
    There are only 2 currently supported versions: Firefox 6.0 and Firefox 3.6.20.
    *All other versions have stability and security issues that will not be corrected, but are corrected in the updated versions, as they are released.
    Other download links:
    *Current version (now version 6.0): http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Older supported version (now 3.6.20): http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    According to the chart on the page you referenced, your students should be using Firefox 3.6.20 (Firefox 3.5.x versions are no longer supported or updated).
    The certified/compatible classifications are Blackboard's determination.
    '''<u>Firefox Portable</u>'''<br />
    If your students wish to use the most current version of Firefox for their everyday browsing and use a Blacboard compatible version for use only with Blackboard activities, they can have both on their systems by installing Firefox Portable (not produced by Mozilla):
    *Firefox Portable installs in a separate folder on your hard drive so that it does not interfere with your current version Firefox settings or personal information (bookmarks, passwords, etc.). Add-ons are also kept separate.
    *You can also install Firefox Portable on a USB/thumb/pin/jump drive.
    *Firefox Portable general information: http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

  • How to get iOS 5 beta without developer account

    Can someone please tell me how to get iOS 5 beta? If so please leave a link to where you it

    Apple has reasons why they only let developers have access to beta versions. Beta versions are very buggy, and are not very good with everyday use on primary devices. Developers are only allowed to have access to betas because it lets them make their apps ready to be used and compatible with iOS 5 by the time the final release comes out.

  • Anyway to get 3.0 beta now if i pay?

    is there a safe, legal way of getting 3.0 beta now? can i pay to have it registered or anything?

    The only legal way to get the iPhone 3.0 beta is to sign up for and be accepted to Apple's iPhone developer program.
    http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/
    Unless you intend to develop applications for the iPhone, I suggest you just be patient and wait for the official release of the 3.0 OS like everyone else. The beta is a beta for a reason; it's not finished and is hence missing features and has bugs.
