How to enable "Check For Updates" ??

how can I to enable "Check For Updates" in the Help menu ??

There is an outside chance you can download the updates and install them, but in the case you have that probably would not work. Are you logged in as an administrator?

  • Need detailed instructions on how to enable " Check for Updates" option on the Firefox installation directory for Windows XP.

    I have Firefox 2.0 (running Windows XP) and want to update it to 3.6, but the "Check for updates" option on the Help menu is grayed out and need to enable this option by changing permissions on the Firefox installation directory. I need detailed instructions on how to access the Firefox installation directory and change the permissions.
    Can someone please assist?
    Thank you.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox#Mac_OS_X
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.

  • How does one check for Updates...

    How does one check for Updates when :
    Registration
    Deactivation
    Updates
    Menu items are greyed out! ?

    Actually, it's a timing issue. Those items are greyed out for a couple of minutes after PPro starts. A little patience and they become available. ;)

  • How to disable check for updates??

    I ve to package a ctrlPrint 5.0.2.33 plugin to adobe incopy CS3. After installing that plugin exe , in adobe incopy first window, plugin will add two tabs called ctrl and ctrlPrint if we press ctrl tab than there is a feature called check for updates and i have to disable this update so pls suggest me how to do it ?  no reg entry ,no update reg ,no xlm file for update is there.

    Hi,
    If you are referring to Help -> Check for Updates, I'm not certain if that is possible.
    If you mean Tools -> Preferences -> Extensions, just uncheck the Automatically Check for Updates box. Doing that is standard procedure for improving the tool's launch performance.

    Can't you install Silverlight and the plugin for all users rather than a specific one?
    I would guess/hope/expect there'd then be one plist file for everyone?

  • How to disable checking for updates on Mac Silverlight for enterprise environment

    Hi Guys,
    We are trying to create a package for our enterprise environment to push the install of Silverlight for the Mac and have it not automatically check for updates.
    What is the best way to do that?
    I found the setting in the com.microsoft.silverlight.plist file that was in the user profile/library/preferences folder.
    Is there a way to have this UpdateMode key set to the desired setting regardless of which user is logged onto the mac?
    Thanks.
    Aaron

  • How to Disable Check for updates button in Help/About in firefox 5.0

    Hi the user should not manually check for updates so we want to disable the Check for updates button also in Help/About.
    Thanks in advanced

    You can hide that button with code in userChrome.css below the @namespace line.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
    You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

    #aboutDialog #updateBox { display:none!important; }</nowiki></pre>
    You can also choose to lock the related update pref(s) to false if you want to make sure.

    Maemo is no longer supported ever since 7.0
    Mozilla is only supporting Android 2.2+ now for mobile.

    Mozilla has stopped official support and development for Firefox for Maemo/Meego. The last official release for Maemo was Firefox 7.
    A person by the name of Romaxa has been supplying some more recent third-party Firefox builds for the OVI store.

  • How to check for updates?

    How do I check for updates to Nokia messaging?
    I logged email.nokia.com and went to the support section - it said that to download nokia messaging, I had to go to email.nokia.com on my device browser. But when I tried to do this, nothing loaded, it just sat there trying to load.
    I was trying to find out if there is an update to Nokia Messaging that enables me to open my MS exchange account in Nokia messaging rather than in mail for exchange. I am sick of MfE automatically opening all emails in plain text and having to go options -> show HTML.
    I have an N97 mini.

    Only the official builds from Mozilla can get updates patches as one cannot expect Mozilla to provide update patches to builds that Mozila did not well build.
    The reason the Help->Check for updates was missing was because Ubuntu removed it.

  • Can't figure out how to check for updates in Firefox for Ubuntu

    I'm running "Firefox 3.6.13 Mozilla Firefox for Ubunto canonical - 1.0". How do I check for updates? The how-to here in the help site says to look for the updates item in the Help menu but there isn't any such. I can't find it in the Tools menu, or in Edit>Preferences. Where is it hiding?

  • How do you do a click to check for updates in firefox 4?

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/780312''
    In firefox 3 there was an option to check for current updates .. I noticed in Firefox four my digital persona does work with my finger print reader anymore and its really more convient for me just to swipe my finger to log onto a website without having to remember every single password and its a pain in the rear end to look for them.. how do i check for updates to make sure I can repair a lot of the current problem with firefox 4 .. I love the program but it just has a few small flaws that I am sure will work its self out ..

    Firefox program updates are handled thru the Help > About Mozilla Firefox menu item, there's a Check for Updates button in that dialog when automatic updates are turned off.
    You can check for extension updates manually in the Tools > Addons > Extensions tab. Right-click an extension and use the Find Update menu item.
    I doubt in that fingerprint reader will update with Find Updates, though. You should look for updates at the fingerprint reader software website.

  • Acrobat X Pro: Check for Updates Error 1007 Updates have been disabled by your system policy

    Because of another Acrobat problem (I won't go into here), today I uninstalled Acrobat Pro 10.1.9 and re-installed Acrobat 10.0.0. I thought I could get back to 10.1.9 by selecting "Check for Updates" after installation. My system is Win7x64 and I'm running as a named user with Administrator rights on a machine that is not part of domain.
    When I select "Check for Updates", I receive a window titled "Adobe Acrobat Updater" that says "Update failed Updates have been disabled by your system policy. Error: 1007 <Close>" About ten seconds later, Acrobat X terminates, leaving this window hanging around.
    What do I do to enable checking for updates?

    Thanks Bill@VT and LeoAdobeX. It's still not working though.
    Over the last few days, Windows System Restore says I have done 4 (four) Remove/Install Pairs. I tried the helpful cleaner you suggested. I knew I probably had some Acrobat9 cruft, so I ran the Acrobat9 and Reader9 cleaners, then the AcrobatX cleaner (I never had ReaderX). I also uninstalled absolutely every Adobe program from my system: Flash Player (three versions), iFilter, Adobe AIR, Amazon Music Importer (relies on Adobe AIR).
    I tried it both as 10.0.0, and installing 10.0.0 and then the 10.1.9 MSP you pointed me to at the "update link" above. I installed as "Trial" mostly, but once with my registration key.
    Starting up Acrobat X still fails epically. Also, every time I've looked, it hasn't solved the "other Acrobat problem" that initiated all of this.
    The most that I've received from Acrobat X today is the splash screen came up once. Only once. Even after a restart of Windows 7, launching AcrobatX from the Start Menu, Desktop or even directly from the EXE under "Program Files (x86) does nothing. I thought it might just be slow the last time, so I took a 15 minute coffee break after attempting to launch. Nothing.
    Ergo, I am looking at Windows System Restore. I miss two days of not being able to read PDF's even if the "other Acrobat problem" remains.
    However, I got a whiff that I have another problem headed my way. I bought update version of Acrobat9 and AcrobatX. I've now wiped all traces of Acrobat9 (and will shortly do another wipe of AcrobatX). The Cleaner log reports "** Info : Installed product not found for upgrade code". The MyAdobe website has all my install codes back to Acrobat4, but I'm not sure I could locate my Adobe 4 CDROM or the intervening CDROM's that would be required to source me back to a full version (maybe Acrobat6?).
    As I understand it, System Restore will do many things but not actually install the program files that I've been writing and deleting from my disk over the last two days. So, I'm going to have to do some install of AcrobatX after I do the System Restore and I now have little hope that even that installation will work to "just put things back the way they were".
    Is AcrobatX supported on Windows7x64 Ultimate? Is there some place to track down what may be the "issues due to the 64-bit system"?
    I have checked the policies under Control Panel->Administrator and there is more to check there. My account is a member of Administrators, which I would think would give me the rights to do just about anything, but when I click on the "Local Security Policy" shortcut, I get a "Group Policy Error: Failed to open the Group Policy Object on this computer. You may not have the appropriate rights. <Close> Details: Unspecified error". I'll chase this down if the System Restore does not make this error go away, but this part is clearly not a problem with Adobe software. All of the Other Admin/MMC Tools like Computer Management open fine.
    Thank you very much for the responses. I found them to be very helpful but I still feel I've got a big problem ahead.
