How do you cancel Firefox updates

I want to block certain sites and videos but everytime Firefox updates the add ons become obselete and have to be updated to block sites and videos.
I am not here everyday so when I miss the updates, access to blocked sites and videos is activated again.

Depending on your OS, in Firefox, go to Options->Advanced->Updates tab and set accordingly.
And look at this KB article, for more info.

  • How can we cancel Firefox attempts to load new version of Firefox or successfully load it

    Firefox is attempting to load the new version of Firefox and keeps failing, with this message showing. "Updates can`t be installed, make sure no other copies of firefox are running on computer then restart. When you X out or click on OK, it tries again and keeps repeating this cycle, not letting us connet to the internet. How can we cancel the update attempts or successfully load the new version so we can access the internet sgain

    If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • How to setup a Firefox update server on a Windows 2012 server?

    Are there any instructions available on how to setup a Firefox update server that can automatically download updates from the Mozilla site and users can then grab the updates from the internal server? I'm using wampserver so that I can utilize Apache and PHP on the 2012 server.
    Thanks!

  • How do I cancel an update do OSX 10.9.5?

    Dear list members, I had serious trouble (crash, freezing) after updating my old iMac 27" (Late 2009) to OSX 10.9.5. Now I formatted my hard drive and fresh installed OSX 10.9.2. However, without me asking for it (I didn't turn on auto-update), the App Store downloaded OSX 10.9.5 and wants to update my system after a reboot (please see the screenshot). How do I cancel this update? I'm sure OSX 10.9.5 will make my iMac crash again, so I'd better wait for a debugged version, which will surely have to come soon, as several users are having similar problems. Thanks!

  • How do you cancel BT Sports?

    I'm currently on Sky HD but I'm cancelling it as the majority of programmes I watch are on freeview.
    I signed up online for BT Sports back in May but I've changed my mind & don't wish to go ahead with it anymore.
    How do you cancel this before the season starts?

    Just a follow up. I rang up & cancelled & got my £15 refunded to me. I also got another bill for around £5 a few days after I cancelled but that gas been cancelled too.
    I really see no reason for the high activation fee & bills before the service has even started
    BT have to pay Sky when the card is activated to receive then channels. It makes sense that they'd charge you at the same time. 

  • How do you get firefox 4 to save tabs and windows and restore them? Don't say set preferences to open them on startup or use restore previous session under history; those do not work. Or is it no longer possible to save windows and tabs?

    Question
    How do you get firefox 4 to save tabs and windows and restore them? Don't say set preferences to open them on startup or use restore previous session under history; those do not work. Or is it no longer possible to save windows and tabs?

    '''IT'S A EASY AS IT SHOULD BE.'''
    This is essentially paulbruster's answer, but I've added the steps some might assume, but which aren't so obvious to those of us who are new at this, like me.
    This solution might ''appear'' to be long and complicated, but after you follow the directions once, you'll find it's quick, clean, and simple. Almost like they designed it this way.
    # If you haven't already, open a bunch of tabs on a few different subjects.
    # Click the List All Tabs button on the right side of the tab strip.
    # Select Tab Groups.
    # Create a few groups as described [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/what-are-tab-groups#w_how-do-i-create-a-tab-group here] , i.e. just drag them out of the main thumbnail group into the new groups they create.
    # Now click on any thumbnail in any new group, but not the original big default group you may have left some tabs in.
    #A regular Firefox window will open, but'' only the tabs in that group will be visible.'' You also now have the Tab Groups button in the tab strip.
    # Right click on any tab, and there it is: Bookmark All Tabs. Click on it in the list of options. Or you can hit Ctrl+Shift+D instead and go straight to the dialogue box from the tab without any clicks. But don't go looking for this familiar option anywhere else, 'cause it's not there.
    # Now pick an existing folder or create a new one just like you would have before and '''shlpam!''' there they are. New folders are supposed to end up in the Unsorted category all the way at the very bottom, but for some reason mine show up at the bottom of my last sorted category.
    # DO NOT CLICK THE UPPER-RIGHTMOST X to close this group of tabs. This will close ALL of your tabs in all groups, currently visible or not. At least it asks if you're sure first. Instead, click your new Tab Groups button to return to the Boxes 'O Thumbnails window, and click the X in the group box you just bookmarked.
    # Click on another thumbnail to repeat the process with another group, or click on a thumbnail in the big default box to return to the original FF window. You can also click the Tab Groups button at the upper right, or Ctrl+Shift+E, which will also get you ''into'' the Boxes 'O Nails window ''from'' FF.
    # So now when you reopen FF after shutdown, simply select your folder from your Bookmarks and Open All in Tabs. '''Just like paulbruster said. '''

  • If you accidentally click on date "pop down", how do you cancel it?

    If you accidentally click on date "pop down" in a document or email, how do you cancel the window that pops up?
    A calendar entry pops up, but has no Cancel button, no close box, and does not respond to ESC key.

    Barney-15E wrote: Click somewhere else. Esc works for all the other data detectors, but not calendar entries, it appears.
    Clicking elsewhere does not work, either.
    I had to close the document to get rid of the window. Even scrolling does not move the window. Bad design, Apple.

  • How do you cancel a erase pending from icloud to an ipod5?

    So i lost my ipod5 a month ago, and waited 2 weeks and then decided to send a erase. Now i found it at my friends house, and its still offline. I haven't on it yet because i dont want the stuff to be erase. i havent backed it up in a long time and i dont want to lose anything. how do you cancel a erase pending from icloud to an ipod5? PLEASE HELP

    Hello adv1234,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I realize that you have found your iPod that you previously thought to be lost and had initiated an erase from iCloud. Once set to erase, the process cannot stop, but you can restore from any previous iCloud or iTunes backups that you may have for the device.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    If you erase then find your iOS device, you can restore the information on the device using iCloud Backup (if backup was turned on before you erased it) or iTunes. For more information, see iCloud storage and backup overview, or the Safety, Handling & Support section of the iOS 8 user guide for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. If your device has iOS 7 or earlier, get the user guide from the Apple Support website.
    Best regards,
    Joe

    how do you stop an update on Pages without losing your data? i've connected my ipad to my phone's internet network through tethering. it's been ages already. but Pages is still not fully updated and i just wanna stop it anyway without losing my work inside...can anyone please shed light on this? i'd be absolutely certainty definitely grateful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You can try pausing the download by tapping on the Pages icon, but you may not be able to use Pages until the update completes. I don't know that for sure, but I wouldn't want to take the chance on corrupting the app and maybe the files.
