How to install a newer version when I already have an older version?

I have an older version of Firefox. How do I install the latest version? If I follow the instructions for installing Firefox will it automatically upgrade my current version? Why is Firefox not automatically installing newer versions?

hello rkhpci, yes firefox should automatically update every six weeks (or between if there's a critical security update). in the past this might not have worked when you had a restricted user account.
please download the newest firefox version for your system and language from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ and install it on top of your current installation. this will keep all your bookmarks, customizations and so on...

    Are you sure you have the newest version of iTunes 11 and newest version of iOS6? Go to Software Update and make sure you do.

  • Current iLife needs updating, but don't want to pay for the latest versions when I already have the actual application

    I got a MacBook a couple of years a go and it was pre-downloaded with iLife 09.  I already downloaded the latest software (OS X Mountain Lion) and now I would like to update these to the most current versions out there (the ones in the Mac App Store) but I don't want to spend $15 per app when I already have the applications.  Is there a code that will allow me to just update the most current versions?  That would help most definetly.

    No. There is no upgrade discount.

  • How do i fix the message to update java deployment kit when I already have the lastest version of java installed?

    I keep getting a message that "An important update is available for Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.400.43". I click on "Update Now" and I get taken to the Mozilla Plug-in check page. A brief message shows at the top of the page that tells me some plugins are out of date and then disappears. The plugin checks show all plugins are up to date. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Java more than once and run a registry cleaner, but once I install Java the same messages appear. I am on a Windows XP machine and I am running an older version of Firefox (9.0) because addons for some of my other software don't work with newer versions of firefox. Can I get rid of the message or do I have to live with it because I use an older version of firefox?

    Please update to Firefox 23.0.1 IMMEDIATELY. Old versions are extremely vulnerable to security issues, and all your add-ons should work if they work in Firefox 10 anyway.

  • Why can't I install the newer version of Flash when I already have the older one?

    My virus software is turned off. I have Flash currently on my computer. In the troubleshooting page I can see the clouds in the picture so I know my current flash is working.  I went into the internet settings for add-ons and the flash is currently enabled.  Why can't I install the newer version of Flash? I tried the run and save option and it still didn't work. I can see the installer in my downloads folder. But, all I get is a black blank box that does nothing. What else can I try to get the installer to actually install the updated version of flash?

    Try the offline installer(s)

  • How do I get the subsidized price for a new phone when I already have a plan?

    I have been a Verizon customer since September. I have a dumb phone, and I'm really having trouble keeping up with my life. Now that the Droid 4 is coming out in February I've decided that it's time to upgrade. The Droid is coming out at $199 with a two year contract, I think. My question is, what do I have to do to get the subsidized price for the phone? In my current contract I can't upgrade until 2013. Should I cancel that contract all together and just pay the ETF? Then get a new contract with the new phone? Can I even do that? Also, would there be any way to keep my phone number in this situation?
    Thanks for your help, Verizon Community!

    Ok I kno it ***** but here is what i have done in the past when i had your same situation I have been a VW customer for about 13 years so i had old equipment lying around that i could use but If you are a new verizon customer you will have to find an older phone that does not require a monthly data package. You say you have a dumb phone so your old equipment mite all ready work for this. Here is what you do
    Go to Verizon and get the new phone you want tell them you will be adding a line to your account so you can sign up and get the new Droid 4 phone for the discounted price of $199 tell them you want to add the phone to your plan and convert your existing plan to a family plan this should be around the same price as you are currently paying unless you have an unlimited plan. But there is an extra monthly charge of $10 more per month per xtra phone on the plan up to 4 + the 1 original phone. so you are allowed 5 total on a family plan.
    Then the following day you transfer the new phone to your old number and vise versa.
    You now shut off the old phone and put it in a draw. You now have the new phone you want and dont have to pay the early term fee. the early term fee is pro rated so every month it will go down by $5-$10 per month im not sure exactly how much. You can call verizon and ask exactly how much it is
    Although this way it will end up costing you $240  24mo x $10 you do not have to pay it all up front and if you ever have a problem with your droid ie (breaks,stolen,loss) you have a back up that will be ready to go Plus you get to keep your current number
    Hope this helps
    Actually, if you are not ALREADY on a Family Plan, it WILL end up costing you more than this extra $10/month. For example, if you are on the 450 minute Individual Plan, you are paying $40/month and possibly $20/month for unlimited texting. The smallest Family Plan(700 minutes/month) would put you at $70/month and if you want the same unlimited texting, it would be an additional $30/month. This is $100/month vs $60/month on an Individual Plan which comes out to an additional $40/month x 19 months(24 months - 5 months you have already completed on your original line) = $760 ADDITIONAL you would pay until you could cancel your original line. If you wanted to keep your original #, though, you would instead pay an ADDITIONAL $960($40 x 24 months) until you could cancel your new line. Either way, it would MUCH cheaper to just pay full retail for the new phone.
    Remember, this is ONLY if you are currently on an Individual Plan and change to a Family Plan with 2 phones. If you are currently on a Family Plan with others, and have the ability to add an additional line, your additional payments would not be this high.

  • How to install Lion over Leopard if I already have the InstallESD.dmg file?

    How can I install Lion over Leopard? I know everyone keeps saying you have to have Snow Leopard, but it seems that you only need it to actually download the file. I have the file and I've created a back-up disk and drive (using a 4gb card) and nothing worked. I don't understand why I can't install even if I have the file. The computer doesn't even recognize the disk when I press option at start up but it recoginizes it as Lion when fully logged in. I can't install using the .pkg file because it says it can't be installed on the running system. I have tried to use the drive and it gives me a EFI Boot when I press option at start up and so I click on it and It goes to the apple grey screen with the circle circling below it. But after a while, that apple turns into a No sign basically. So what else do I need to change or edit to install Lion over Leopard. The startup disk nor the drive are working.

    The Lion installer is not a bootable device. You must run the installer like any other application. Since the installer will only upgrade Snow Leopard it may refuse to run. What you might try is putting a bootable Snow Leopard system onto a 16 GB USB flash drive, drag the Lion installer application into the Applications folder, boot the computer from the flash drive then run the Lion installer.
    As for creating your own bootable flash drive you will need an 8 GB flash drive for that:
    Make Your Own Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that  you can use without having to re-download Lion.

  • How do I download my lightroom software onto my new computer when I already have my software on my old computer?

    I purchased a new computer and tried to download my lightroom 4 program onto it. It is still installed on my other lap top. Can some give me some direction on how I can download my software onto my new lap top? Thanks in advance.

    You have to use the same download link or same installer(DVD) to download & use the same serial number(it can be activated two times) to get it activated.

  • How to activate new computer when we already have 6

    Hello,
    we activate 6 computers of 6 personn who need to read ebook with drm.
    In order to ease the reading we decide to move to pc-tablet (on windows 8)
    we decided to deactivate three computer by using ctrl+shift+D, but when we want to use it on the tablet it still says that we reach the maximum authorization.
    how can we activate this new computer ?
    best regards

    Malheureusement, le système d'enregistrement ne semble pas toujours remarquer désactivations ,
    et Adobe ne fournit pas une interface Web approprié pour vous de les administrer .
    Adobe Live Chat : http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html ,
    ou comme un léger raccourci essayer http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=digital-editions&topic=usi ng - mon -produit ou service
    Choisir un thème '' La signature sur mon compte » , puis cliquez sur« je encore besoin d'aide »;
    alors vous devriez voir « converser avec un agent » au bas de la page .
    Selon la résolution de l'écran , vous devrez peut-être faire défiler vers le bas pour voir le chat avec un agent « peu , un peu moins « Demandez à nos experts .
    «Demandez à nos experts» sera en effet juste vous ramener à ce forum .
    Parfois, vous obtiendrez ' Désolé ! Tous les agents sont occupés , s'il vous plaît vérifier bientôt de retour ».
    Ne pas actualiser la page, juste accrocher et il devrait finalement aller à 'Chat maintenant , et l'agent est disponible .
    Ils peuvent réinitialiser vos autorisations , puis vous devez autoriser à nouveau les périphériques que vous encore besoin .
    ( Malheureusement , Adobe n'a pas obtenu ronde pour un site Web d'administration pour la visualisation et l'édition des autorisations . )
    Certains des représentants n'ont pas été correctement formés et ne savent pas quoi faire ( et réclamer n'y a rien qu'ils peuvent faire ) ;
    dans ce cas, le seul moyen semble être de renoncer à cette discussion et essayer une autre session l'espoir d'un représentant dûment qualifié.
    Si votre problème est avec un autre appareil à l'aide Overdrive , Bluefire , Aldiko ou une application tierce partie semblable , il est recommandé de ne pas mentionner que l'application quand sur le chat , mentionnez simplement que vous avez exécuté des autorisations ( E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS ) . Merci à AJP_Bear pour cette astuce .
    Unfortunately the registration system does not always seem to notice deactivations,
    and Adobe does not provide a proper web interface for you to administer them.
    Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html,
    or as a slight short cut try http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=digital-editions&topic=using-my-product-or-ser vice
    Choose topic ‘'Signing into my Account' , and then click on 'I still need help';
    then you should see 'Chat with an Agent' at the bottom of the page.
    Depending on screen resolution, you may need to scroll down a bit to see the Chat with an Agent' bit, just under 'Ask our Experts'.
    'Ask our experts' will indeed just lead you back to this forum.
    Sometimes you will get ‘Sorry! All agents are busy— please check back soon.’
    Don’t refresh the page, just hang on and it should eventually go to ‘Chat Now, and agent is available’.
    They can reset your authorizations, and then you must reauthorize any devices you still need.
    (Unfortunately, Adobe haven’t got round to an admin website for viewing and editing authorizations.)
    Some of the representatives haven't been properly trained and don't know what to do (and claim there is nothing they can do);
    in that case the only way seems to be to give up that chat and try another session hoping for a properly trained representative.
    If your problem is with another device using Overdrive, Bluefire, Aldiko or similar third party app, it is recommended not to mention that app when on the chat, just mention that you have run out of authorizations  (E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS) .  Thanks to AJP_Bear for that tip.

  • How do I set the songs on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to buy new ringtones when I already have a whole music library to choose from!

    How do I set the songs from itunes on my iphone 4s as ringtones? I shouldn't have to purchase ringtones when I have a whole music library on my iphone to choose from and songs that I have already purchased! I should not have to rebuy music!!
    If anyone can help me on this that would be great!  Thank you!

    My comment is the same as Dyson2003.
    I am very disappointed, as I thought by purchasing a ringtone the set up would be easy - this I find to be extremely misleading. Before iPhone allows you to purchase a ringtone, they should make it very clear that to download a ringtone you will need the GarageBand programme in order to enable the ringtone to work.
    I sent an email to the support team, in the hope that they would be able to advise me. I was basically referred to a telephone number for the country that I live in. In writing this email, when finished I think I am going to ask back for a refund.
    In reading the above comments, I am even more annoyed because I've googled GarageBand only to see that theirs a cost of £2.99. I am so not impressed!

    you don't need a cc subscription to use the purchased copy.
    download the installation file and use your serial number to activate when given the licensing option during installation.  you should install 5.7 instead of installing 5.0 and updating.

  • Why does it suggest an update when I already have the latest version installed, everyday.

    I get a notification saying that an update is available, every single day, even though the available "updated" version is the same as the version already installed. e.g. 16.0a2

    The Aurora development channel is suppose to only get updates whenever there are checkins and since there are checkins almost everyday, there are updates each of those days. The version number does not change.
    To tell whet build you have look at the build date in user agent or in '''about:buildconfig''' source link.
    edit: Looks like Aurora is now going with the dumb idea of no build date in UA that was only in Nightly channel before ever since move/merge of channels recently.
    You could even try testing the Beta channel where Firefox 15.0 is on as updates are every so often. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta
