How can I revert to the prior version 9pre-3.6.13 update of firefox, as the new oone is causing more trouble than it's worth?

The 3,6,13 update has disabled real player and occasionally locks up my mouse while in firefox. I don't see the advantages of the update if it's causing this much trouble with other software.

Changing versions often does not cure problems, but it does increase risks.
* ( Do Not ) [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
The search options will not be changed by downgrading, but there is a method of changing that without downgrading.
* See Ed's [/questions/1044599#answer-685295]
I am not sure the changes in Firefox 35.0.1 would cause your audio issues
* https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/35.0.1/releasenotes/
The first step in troubleshooting that may be to identify the tab or page involved, then try Firefox with only the newtab page and the problem page open.
IIRC Firefox is intended to continue streaming audio even if a tab does not have focus. That enables users to stream audio in the background whilst browsing. What you hear may be intended behaviour.

My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

    You can turn it off, in iOS5 as well on Mac and PC. Always Systemsettings/ControlPanel -> iCloud. There are your options. From within iOS5 you can also delete the complete account.

  • How can I get back my prior version of FIrefox browser as the update I downloaded 12-20-11 has NONE of my bookmarks & is ugly to boot.

    Right after updating my Mozilla Firefox yesterday, a screen came up asking if I wanted to update my Firefox browser. It then described benefits of the update. It did not say it would NOT import my existing Bookmarks. After downloading the new browser I had NO bookmarks, or even a Bookmarks tab. Also there was a Yahoo! search tab which I do not want and an extra line of tabs that made the search result window below smaller, which I do not like. I would be happy if I got my prior version of my browser back with all my Bookmarks. Please help.

  • How can I revert to an earlier version of Thunderbird? 31.1.2 is giving me bugs.

    Thunderbird has been working great for me for years. I'm on a Windows 7 desktop computer.
    The new version 31.1.2 got auto-installed yesterday, and now I have the popup window to "Add Security Exception" happening all the time, even with different mail servers (Yahoo and Google). I can't believe that both Yahoo and Google simultaneously had their certificates go out of date. So I think the problem is in Thunderbird.
    I've submitted a bug report on Bugzilla, but for now I'd just like to revert back to version 31.1.1 (or whatever preceded 31.1.2). How can I do this?

    Well, reverting to 31.1.1 did not fix the problem.
    ''Did you bother to check why you'd get the exception prompt? There must a reason for it, and I don't think it's due to a bug.''
    How would I check?
    ''So I think the problem is in Thunderbird.''
    ''What makes you believe that? This forum would be swamped with complaints if that was a general problem. The problem is much more likely on your end. ''
    Since the update was very new - and I had done nothing to my knowledge that should have caused the problem, I thought that many people would be seeing the problem.
    ''I doubt this will fix your problem. Please state what error message you get for the Google and Yahoo certs.''
    You were right. I have attached a screen shot of the error message. It's the same for both Yahoo and Google.
    I don't get any other message, but Thunderbird has become EXTREMELY slow at downloading new messages.

  • How can I revert to a previous version of iTunes - v11.1.0.126 is terrible!

    Hi there, I've seen this asked on these forums but haven't seen an answer... maybe there isn't one. I really need to revert back to an older version of iTunes from 11.1.0.126. The most recent version has so many problems (and no real improvement from the older version) that I've come to the conclusion rather than solving each of them one by one (and I've had no luck with any of that so far!), it would be easier to go back to the previous release. Is this possible?

    Also, if I can do that without destroying my library and files, it would be great!!

  • How can I revert to a previous version and stop firefox from automatically updating?

    I'd like to have the ability to deny an update, some kind of dialogue box. It just went to 9.0.1 with no approval whatsoever.
    The reason why is that FF main appeal is the range of extensions, having over half of them non-functional because developers can't keep up with frequent Firefox updates is frustrating beyond compare.

    Hi PJ99,
    You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]]. This will show you how to roll back to an older version.
    If you want to turn off automatic updates, just take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Updating%20Firefox#w_how-do-i-configure-update-options this article]. That will prevent Firefox from updating automatically.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Firefox 35.0 is crashing when adding images, can I revert to a previous version of FF? I've tried all of the suggested remedial things.

    This problem happened since the first of the year. I have a Radeon 7000 graphics card, and am running XP Service Pack 3. I also have a friend who is having this same problem except her browser is crashing opening files. I have even uninstalled a printer which I added during that period of time and the associated software, but it didn't solve the problem.

  • HT2509 Why has apple not ditch font book yet? The software causes more problems than it is worth using.

    iOS4 has been working fine for me.
    What troubleshooting have you done?
    As far as the app, have you contacted the developer to let them know that their game crashes in iOS4?

  • Don't get the iOS 4 upgrade, it causes more problems than it is worth.

    -5 minutes ago I was on facebook and my friend called me. I answered the call and then about 15 seconds into the conversation the call crashed and it brought me back to facebook, and the phone marked it as a missed call in the log as if it never occured.
    -I tried to go to my texts and the layout of the text interface loaded but the texts did not, ended up having to restart. It still takes almost 5 seconds to load them.
    -Tried to play TD Zero and the App just kept crashing. Had to restart. This has never happened before with this app.
    -Going between different email accounts lags so bad now it's not even worth the time it takes to use it.
    -Pushing home button lags alot, as does going between App menus
    -Phone froze while I was on Safari just now, tried to press home button and lock the phone, took about 30 seconds for it to "catch up" with itself. Ended up having to do a hard reset.
    This all really does make me want to upgrade to iPhone 4, so I guess Apple accomplished their mission..

  • How can I revert my audio clips that I have edited in Soundtrack Pro back to the original audio?

    I edited a project in FCP6 and sent numerous audio clips to Soundtrack Pro where I sampled and removed some AC and fridge compressor
    hum from some interview footage.  I'm sending the project out for professional sound mixing and they advised me to restore the original
    audio to prevent the creation of artifacts when they process the sound in a different program. 
    Is there some way to "revert" all my clips that I edited in Soundtrack Pro back to the original audio without going back to
    my original interview footage and cutting in clip by clip?  (Next time I'll save my original audio on a duplicate timeline -- live and learn!)
    Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas!

    What happens if duplicate the sequence, then choose one of them to use "match frame" to get back to the original clips?

  • My Xerox Phaser 6120 is no longer compatible with Firefox. There is no new driver. How can I revert to a previous version so I can browse AND print?

    For a few months, I have been unable to print from Firefox. I assumed it was a setting or something on my network, but today figured out it's my old printer driver that is no longer compatible. There is no new driver, nor will there be one. I love my printer, and do not want to buy a new one just to be able to use Firefox AND print. Switching back and forth between Firefox and Safari isn't an option. Any suggestions? Is there a way to regress my Firefox so it can work like it used to? Any workarounds? Thanks very much.

    Also, if I can do that without destroying my library and files, it would be great!!
