How do I update firefox to version 3.6. which is available

I am running firefox version 3.5.9 in Kubuntu9.10. I know that version 3.6.6 of firefox is available. I checked automatic update status with the step-by-step guide in your site. When I click on "Help" in firefox, I am getting a total of 7 choices as against the 9 choices shown at your site. The first two and the last three as shown in your site are there. The third choice in my window is "Report Web Forgery" and the fourth one is "Report a Problem". So, how will I update the 3.5.9 version to 3.6.6 version? Although I can download the 9.8MB file at your site, I do not know how to "RUN" it on Linux. Please help.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Just when I want to check for update

The version you have is a version repackaged by your particular linux distro so they don't take official updates from Mozilla.
Here's how to "run" the version you downloaded from the official mozilla site: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Linux

    How to cancel update firefox 29.0? I want back my Firefox 28.0 !

    Hello,
    can you please tell us about the problem you are facing using Firefox 29.
    Reverting back to an Old version generally doesn't solve the problems,
    Often when there is a problem with a Firefox update, people look for a way to go back to the previous version. That usually doesn't solve the problem and will make your computer and information vulnerable to attack.
    So, please tell us about your problem and we will try to help you best.

  • How can I update Firefox on my laptop?

    How can I update Firefox on my MacBook Pro?

    To which version do you want to update?
    To the latest Firefox 3.6.11 version?
    Did you try via Help > Check for Updates?
    If that doesn't work then do this:
    * Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded.
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • How can I update my ipod version from 1.3 to 2.0 or higher

    How do I update my Ipod version from 1.3 to 2.0 or higher?

    Except for iPod touch (which runs iOS), each iPod model has different software.  The version number doesn't really matter between different iPod models.  The latest version of software for each iPod model is installed by iTunes.
    Connect your iPod.  In iTunes, select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, go to the Summary tab.  You should see a button there that says Check for Update.  Click it.  If there is an update available for your iPod model, it will be installed.  If not, you already have the latest version of software for your iPod model.

    how can i get FIND button and hotmail button to the toolbar, and how do i update firefox i dont want to update automatically

    Thanx 4 your "you're welcome" cor-el. It's now 4p.m. E.S.T. in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia on Thu. 29/9/2011 and my page tells me u sent this message 21Hrs. ago. To elaborate a bit on my prev. message: I soon realized that after R clicking in the 'Downloads' screen and then on the 2nd. in the drop down menu I could click and drag and drop the icon of the wanted download into the open file or memory device as required. I would take up the offer I see in this e-mail to participate in helping like you and others do but I won't as I feel I'm not experienced enough yet. Nevertheless u keep up the good work. Yours, james1.51.
    P.S. I used Google Chrome for this not Mozilla but it's still me!

  • I desperately would like to update Firefox to version 10 from version 9 but each time I try, I am stuck with FF10 checking addons for comparability and the Welcome page opening every time I start the browser.

    I desperately would like to update Firefox to version 10 from version 9 but each time I try, I am stuck with FF10 checking addons for compatability and the Welcome page opening every time I start the browser. I continue to have to revert to version 9 to resolve this issue.

    Sorry to be a while getting back! Tried all of that with no sucess so this AM, bit the bullet and deleted the FF folder from programs and downloaded and installed FF 10.01. Still was plagued with the same problem. Went into the appdata folder and there were two sessionstore.js files. Deleted them both, restarted the browser and no compatibility check for add-ons was done at start up and the extra tab for Welcome to FF was no longer opening Everything seems to be working as it should and I did not loose any of my settings.. Thank you for trying to help and I hope my solution helps anyone else who might experience this in the future. Here's hoping the next update goes smoother!

  • I was updating Firefox from version 6 to version 7, after updating I tried to open Firefox and the message I got is this: This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found. How can I fix this?

    I was updating Firefox to the newest version 7.0.1 from version 6.0.2 I think it was, I clicked the restart Firefox button that always comes up after updating. It started updating and then Firefox never restarted like it was supposed to after it was done updating. I then tried to open Firefox and it told me "This application has failed to start because xul.dll was not found." I did have Firefox crash on maybe about 30 minutes or so earlier which bothered me because I have been using Firefox for years and never had it crash on me before but I didn't think much of it at the time it happened because I was able to go back onto Firefox and finish what I had been working on. A while later I checked for updates and updated. The first time I tried to update it didn't work though so I had to shutdown Firefox and reopen Firefox and start the update a second time. It was after the second time that when I tried to open Firefox I got that message about failing to start because xul.dll can't be found. I filed a crash report when my Firefox crashed. This would have been around 1am-2am in the morning that Firefox first crashed and then wouldn't allow me to open it after updating. I have a DELL laptop running the Windows XP operating system but the laptop is probably at least 6 or 7 years old. The laptop will no longer charge so I always have to have it plugged into an outlet. Both my laptop hard drive and my external hard drive give me messages that I am running out of disk space on my hard drive. I bought this laptop 6 or 7 years ago second hand so it could be even older. In short it's a piece of crap and it gives me all kinds of issues but I currently can't afford a new one, but I have never had any problems with Firefox and I use Firefox more than any other aspect of my laptop so it's really really bothering me. May you please help me fix it?

    Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

  • Update Firefox to version 17 (the newest version) - Green button link does not work, please help

    Hello,
    I currently have Firefox version 16.0.2 installed on my laptop with Windows 7.
    Every time I attempt to go to the update site (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and click on the green update button, I am sent to the 'Thank you' page, and no download begins.
    After that page, it attempts to redirect, I am assuming to the download; URL is https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-17.0.1&os=win&lang=en-US
    I receive the following error: Unable to connect - Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at download.mozilla.org.
    Please let me know how I can update my Firefox to the latest version.
    Many thanks.

  • After updating Firefox to version 16.0.1, it no longer works in conjunction with "Proxifier"...

    Hi,
    I'm using Firefox on Windows XP professional x64 SP2.
    I also use a program called "Proxifier" which directs all traffic from my computer to the Internet and vice versa through a proxy server and does the name resolution through proxy DNS not system DNS. Before updating my Firefox to v. 16.0.1, everything was working fine: Firefox connections were made through "Proxifier" and all the connections made by Firefox were shown in Proxifier's window.
    But after updating Firefox, traffic from Firefox does not pass through Proxifier and in other words Firefox opens websites if I disable Proxifier. THIS IS NOT THE CASE WITH Internet Explorer which works fine and its traffic is directed through Proxifier as usual.
    I did an extensive search through Google for a solution, and most relevant results suggest that it may have something to do with messed up LSP_CATEGORIES:
    link: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621320
    and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636088
    Anyway, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and Proxifier, resetting Firefox, resetting winsocks catalog (netsh int ip reset - netsh winsock reset) several times and tried the relevant suggestions in this link: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating?esab=a&as=aaq
    Also tried installing previous versions of Firefox such as v. 13 or 3.6.28 but the problem exists with these versions as well.
    Unfortunately nothing has worked so far. I'm really puzzled since Internet Explorer is working fine with Proxifier and this problem with Firefox appeared only after updating it.
    Can anyone suggest a solution?
    Regards

    hello, you probably have to set-up firefox to use a proxy to connect to the web: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/settings-network-updates-and-encryption#w_network-tab

  • How do you update a later version of the iPod touch? Mine dosen't have the update button in settings.

    I am confused because I downloaded on the computer the newest iTunes and it is not updating when I plug it in........How do I update my iOS 4.1 iPod to the newest iOS??? Please help. Thanks!

    To update
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 1G iPod can go to iOS 2.2 via iTunes and iOS 3.1.3 via
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    A 3G to 5.1.1  Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
    A 4G to 6  Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
