How can I get my safari 5.1.10 to download the java update so I won't continue to get notices that my browser is out of date and I need to download the update, which then won't download.  Cannot view anything in youtube or most other places.

Jeez.  Trying to view items in youtube.  I keep getting a blacked out picture telling me my browser is out of date and I need to download the update.  I do that and then it doesn't connect so I'm back at square one. 

Hi MiMattheMac, you probably won't have any problems but just be aware upgrading from Snow Leopard to anything later is a big leap. Old, PowerPC - only programs won't work, for example, and even more recently developed programs won't work if their developers have not been updating them for recent OS X versions.
If you haven't made a backup of your Mac yet, and you consider the information on it important, please consider doing that. It is the only practicable way to "undo" an OS X upgrade should you want to. Merely having a backup seems to preclude the need to ever use it.
If the information on your Mac is not important to you, upgrading to Mavericks is even easier since you can completely erase the Mac first.
In any event let the download complete.
If this raises any concerns about installing it, and you need to ask questions to alleviate those concerns, you can just close this window when it eventually appears:
The 5 GB downloaded file will not be deleted and will remain available until you actually install Mavericks. You can do that at any time convenient for you.

I believe it is a service tech, but I am not interested in persuing that further. I just need to see when my account has been accessed if possible.

    Hi lynniewigs,
    This is a common concern among Android and I-phone user, and one of the drawbacks to using a smart phone.  We lose so much privacy. Our phones become cameras into our homes for us to be spied on.
    I don't know what type of phone you have, if it is even a smart phone, but here is an example of an application that you can use to determine which applications are accessing your information and sending it out.

  • I have Firefox as my default browser. My anti virus says the web browser is out of date and I can't update Firefox as there are no update available. What is the solution?

    I recently had a Dell Tech Specialist work on my computer. I apparently was having trouble with my current browser at the time, which was IE-7. The tech uninstalled it and downloaded Firefox. Computer works great but I cannot update the web browser as there are no updates available on Firefox. I have Norton as the antivirus program. Any suggestions on how to remedy this? I have windows XP

    You are using Firefox 3.6.3 which is an old version, the current version is 3.6.13.
    To update it either use the "Check for updates" option in the Help menu, or download and install the latest version from http://www.mozilla.com/

  • I have downloaded the new vesion of firefox twice yet still keep getting the message that my version is out of date and unprotected

    I have followed the download instructions twice, told my download was complete, yet still seem to get the old version with the message to download the new version so I'm going around in circles

    '''Thank you TonyE''' - I really appreciate your help. The solution for me was to go to the Help menu and select "check for updates" - this worked with no problems. What doesn't work, however, is to click on "update now" on the older version - when I did this I kept going round in circles getting nowhere!
    So thanks again and best wishes to you

  • My minor daughter won't give us her icloud password, she is in some real trouble and we need to restore the phone but can't without turning off the find my phone feature and it requires her password

    Please someone help.  My minor child is 16 years old and has been caught using drugs.  we found pictures  on her phone that she has been posting in adult apps and chatting with men twice her age.  We are trying to restore the phone.  She is refusing to give us her password or the answers to the security questions.  Please help us.  IS THERE ANY WAY TO FIX THIS???

    No, to restore, you need to turn off Find My iPhone and to do so you need the Apple ID & password.
    It's the Activation Lock that prevents thief wiping the iPhone for reuse.
    Take the iPhone from her and if you have the receipt (not from 3rd parties shops), call Apple Care and see if they can help.

  • On mozilla's OWN WEBSITE I get the message 'Your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk!" but I just download and installed the latest version?

    I have the latest version of firefox to date (10/15/2014 v32) and I still get messages while on various websites (Youtube, Google, Gmail) telling me that Your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk.
    I even get that message on the support pages of mozilla.org??
    I've tried the about:config reset the useragent(s) fix but that doesn't work.
    I've tried browsing in safe mode and still get the error.
    Why is this False/Positive happening?
    Thanks

    hello your useragent (the information the browser sends to websites to identify its version) - apparently mistakenly - shows this:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20140923 '''Firefox/4.0.0; xs-A30GTmfXR3o;CkHZPf;'''
    probably some sort of unwanted software has overwritten it. please refer to this article in order to reset the user-agent settings in firefox:
    [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]]
    in case this does not help, please try to reset the whole browser:

  • Why do some sites say my browser is out of date (v 3.6) when I am using Firefox 17.0.1 and am on the release update channel for automatic updates?

    In Facebook and while trying to access an online support mechanism at HP, I receive messages telling me that my browser is out of date. The HP site identified my version as 3.6, when I am actually using version 17.0.1. At least when I click on Help, About Firefox, it tells me I am using v. 17.0.1. Why does this happen? On the HP site, I could not fill in the online registration info as I was receiving javascript errors, along with the browser outdate error.
    Even your own analysis below, sees my browser as v. 3. What gives?

    Hello,
    You have calculated the number of black pixels using a histogram, right? This is the simple part.
    this is how i would approach the problem:
    OPTION 1: calculate the linear magnification of your system, using the equation M = f/(f-d) = hi/ho. f is the focal lenght [mm] and d is the distance of the object from the lense [mm]. You can calculate the magnification by placing an object of known height (ho) at the distance d, and calculate the illuminated pixels (hi). Then multiply the pixels with the physical pixel size in mm. When magnification is know, you can always calculate the object size, based on the number of illuminated pixels. But this is only for the specified distance d. If the distance changes, the magnification changes also. If your area covers let's say 50 pixels, arrange it in 50 columns and 1 row. Calculate the object size using first 50 pixels and second using 1 pixel (if the pixel size in different in both directions, take this into account when calculating). Then multiply the calculated object sizes to get the area.
    OPTION 2: calibrate the camera system in order to obtain the fx and fy [pix]. Calibration is really simple - use the NI Calibration training interface. Calculate the actual focal lenght in both directions:
    fY[mm] = sensor_height[mm] * fy[pix]/sensor_height[pix]
    fX[mm] = sensor_width[mm] * fx[pix]/sensor_width[pix]
    Let's say that the area of the pixels on your image is Ap. Let's also say that we "arrange" it in Ap columns and 1 row. Calculate the actual object size in X direction:
    OX[mm] = Ap * Pw[mm] * d[mm]/fX[mm]
    and in the Y direction:
    OY[mm] = 1 * Ph[mm] * d[mm]/fY[mm]
    where Pw is the element sensor element size in horizontal and Ph in vertical direction [pix].
    Then calculate the real-world area by OX*OY [mm^2].
    You also need the distance d here - the previous post describes how to calculate this.
    Also, hopefully, someone with more experience could comment on what i wrote above. Maybe there is a simpler solution? I am also learning stuff as i go, so any comment would be appreciated.
    Hope this helps you get started.
    Best regards,

    Your i-device was not designed to be a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up. Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. If the computer has nothing on it, the device is set to match the computer's content -- nothing.The exception is purchased content.

    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Can't run videos on Safari, only on Foxfire.  On Safairi I get a message that Adobe Flash is out of date, but I can't update-it won't take ID or PW.

    I can't run videos using my Safari browser, only on Foxfire.  On Safari when I try to run a video, I get a message that says my Adobe flash player is out of date and to download new adobe flash.  However, when I try to run the Adobe Flash player installer, it won't take my Apple ID and PW.  I tried creating an Adobe PW and ID, but that doesn't work either.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.
