How do I go back to 4.0 after upgrading to 4.0.1 ?

I upgraded to version 4.0.1 two days ago. I haven't been pleased with the performance (frequent freezes, slow loading), and one of my favorite tools that I need for work doesn't work properly. I'd like to uninstall the upgrade and go back to 4.0. How do I do that?

That's not a good idea. See: [http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox40.html#firefox4.0.1 Security issues fixed in Firefox 4.0.1]
You can revert to the previous secure version if you wish which is 3.6.17 as follows:<br><br>
#Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.<br><br>
#Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
After you complete the installation, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.
I would suggest in the first instance though to perform a standard diagnostic to correct the anomalies. See: [[Basic troubleshooting]]

  • How do I go back to Snow Leopard after upgrading to Mountain Lion ?

    After upgrading from Snow Loepard to Mountain Lion, a key piece of Firewire equipment (a Tascam FW-1082) no longer works. The computer (and Logic Pro) doesn't show that it's even connected now !? The manufacture no longer produces or support's it, so a driver upgrade is out of the question. HELP !!! I want to ditch Mountain Lion and go back to Snow Leopard . . . I don't have a Time Machine image to go back to, I just want to know How best to re-install Snow Leopard from the upgrade disk I purchased, or even get my Macbook back to how it was the day I bought it and then once again upgrade to Snow Leopard. Many THANKS !!!

    You'll need to erase your disk. Be sure to create a backup.
    Use SuperDuper or CCC. If you purchased the retail SL upgrade you can use that, but you'll sill need your original install disks for your iLife apps. After that on the first boot of the new system, in Setup Assistant choose to migrate only your user from the clone.
    If the backward migration presents any problems, you can do it over and just drag your own data manually. Then you have to re-install any other software you purchased.

  • How can I revert back to iOS 5 after upgrading to ios6

    Can I Uninstall ios6 and reinstall ios5

    While I see no reason this discussion should be prohibited as the previous poster indicated, I will retract the link I provided earlier. Although it does not involve jailbreaking, further investigation suggests the method given there won't work.
    Unless anyone's come up with a better idea, looks like you might have to wait till they sort out the problems with youtube, maps and so on - or buy an Nexus 7...

  • How do i get back to a message after I access a link in the email that takes me to the web without having to go back to the main screen

    How do I get back to my email after I have looked at a message and then clicked on the link in the email and was taken to the web to do something.  I want to be able to get back to my email, but so far I have to go back to the home screen and then into email again.
    Thanks

    The only alternative to what you ask and what sberman tells you is to double tap the home button when you are done with the web and select the mail app from the multi-tasking bar. That will bring you right back to the mail message.

  • How come calendars and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

    How come calandras and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

    Hi, Did you work out a fix for this?  All my calender dates (past & future) and the last 12 months of new contacts gone!!!!   And yes i too back up regularly. 
    Previously when the great 5 upgrade happened, i did loss everything, and although I was doing backups none of that info was relative in an English way. A whole life of important, unreplaceable information gone!  Never to be found.
    All of my products are apple, but it seems that little people dont matter to them, with no recourse for the damage to my personal or professional life.
    Extremly disappointed again!

  • How do I copy the Mac OS Lion after upgrading?

    How do I copy the Mac OS Lion after upgrading. I upgraded to OS Lion and now I want to do clean install because my macbook became slower since i installed lion.
    Please, help! Thanks.

    You need to get on a Snow Leopard system, log into the App Store with your Apple ID, then download the Lion installer. The re-download is free. After the installer is downloaded it will start automatically. Now, quit the installer. You can now make a copy of the installer that you will find in the Applications folder.
    Now, you also may be able to get this to work: Open the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key while clicking on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. This is supposed to activate the Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. Clicking the Install button will then re-download the Lion installer.

  • MAC reboots when I try to back up to TM after upgrading to OS 10.8.

    I am trying to back up to TM after upgrading to OS 10.8.  I managed to do a full back up once but now every time i try to back up the MAC reboots.  This is the 4th time today.

    If you look back in the log and find these messages, what we're looking for are:
    1. any subsequent messages from backupd other than the inital error msg you posted
    2. any unusual messages especially just prior to the first message after re-booting. The first message after re-booting look like this: "localhost bootlog[0]: BOOT_TIME nnnnnnnnnn'
    One would hope that there are some messages just prior to the system re-booting itself that will give a clues as to what is causing the actual re-boot.

  • HT4528 How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone all photos were gone.

    How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone, all my photos were gone.

    What photos?
    Photos taken with the iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.  If you failed to do this, then they are likely gone.  You can try restoring from backup.
    Photos synced from your computer should still be on your computer an in you regular backup copy of your computer.
