I am returning to using firefox 4.?.....I will need to turn off the automatic software update so that it does not update back up to firefox 7 again.

Hi, I am back again with my tweaked brain. LOL I am trying to go back to Firefox 4, which I had so much less trouble with and liked a whole lot more. I am told that after installing the older version I need to turn off the automatic Firefox software update (if enabled)........I don't know where the automatic software update is located. Can you help me? Thank you for your help.......I will check back in a little while.......GOD bless you and all that you do for others.........loving you in Christ.......<3

You can try to clear the cache and cookies to see if that makes a difference:
<h3>Clearing Cache</h3>
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
<h3>Clearing Cookies</h3>
#Go to Firefox > Tools > Privacy > Remove Individual Cookies
#Find the site (ebay.com) that's having problems and clear all cookies.
#Restart Firefox
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

  • Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.

    Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.
    I work in full screen almost exclusively ... the toolbar and the URL are still displayed while in full screen.
    Before this version (30.0), when I minimized Firefox to the taskbar so that I could go to the desktop or to Windows Explorer, when I finished what I was doing and re-selected Firefox it would go back to full screen. Now, it does not go back to full screen. I can still see the taskbar. I have to press [f11] two more times to get back to full screen.
    I have tried with and without addons enabled. Same behavior. I have reset Firefox ... same behavior.
    I'm using Firefox 30.0 and Windows 7 (64 bit).
    Thanks.

    Hi moose53,
    Just tested it with a Logitech keyboard and you are right, what you are describing is not expected behavior. I see you do not have any add ons, however does this also reproduce in Safe Mode? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    If yes, try a new profile [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

    Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.

    Hi Gregg,
    Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.

  • I just got a notice to update my firefox to 4.0 and when I downloaded the new software it indicated: that I can't open the application "Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture. Any ideas about what might be wrong and how to fix it?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • HT201304 I have been trying for two weeks to log into iTunes using my Bank of America Visa Debit card but no progress. Is it that iTunes does not use debit card, I only have a debit card and  Not credit card, so does it mean I can't use iTunes .?

    I have been trying for two weeks to log into iTunes using my Bank of America Visa Debit card but no progress. Is it that iTunes does not use debit card, I only have a debit card and  Not credit card, so does it mean I can't use iTunes .?

    I believe if you haven't already setup an itunes account, if you have access to computer with iTunes installed , you can create an iTunes account on that computer with no credit/debit card and then just buy iTunes cards at your local retailer to get credits.

  • I have transferred itunes and library using home sharing.  How do I 'turn off' the old computer and just use the new one?  home sharing requires both to be on at the moment.

    I have transferred my itunes content and playlists to a new computer using home sharing.  Now I want to use my new computer only, so need to 'turn off' the old one.   What do i do?

    Hello shiv99,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have used Home Sharing to play the music from one computer on another, but now you would like to only use the new computer. It sounds as though you have set up the content to share between computers, but have not actually I’m ported the media from the old computer to the new one. I would suggest following the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to import you music from the old computer to the new one. After that process is complete, you can turn off Home Sharing if you would like and the content will be in the iTunes library on your new computer.

  • I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, but when I click on the free download, it says that Apple does not support this application, so I cannot use it.  This stops me viewing quite a few interesting things.  Any ideas?

    I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, and when I click for a free download it says that "it is not available for your device because of restrictions that Apple has put in place".  Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

    Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

  • How do I turn off the automatic check for update on opening Firefox? I want to turn off that "what's new" page.

    How do I turn off that automatic update that always brings me to the "what's new" web page? It was interesting the first time, but now it is just an irritation. I can check for updates on my own, so I want to turn off this feature. It just started up when I upgraded to Firefox 5. I can't find a place to stop it from checking and bringing me to that web page. Also, I can't stop it from checking add-ons every single time I open the browser.

    did you check the suggestions mentioned in the article i posted in my previous post ??

  • I have been using 3 devices with my wireless network, and suddenly none of them work.  I've tried turning off the modem and router but that hasn't fixed the problem.

    I've been using iPhone, iPad and MacBook with my wireless network, and suddenly, none of them will connect.  The first sign I had that there ws a problem was when I was asked multiple times to re-enter the password, but regardless of how many times I did so it wasn't successful.  I've tried turning off and on the moden and router but that doesn't help.  Suggestions please?

    go into the routers setup and redo the setup like it have disabled the whole wifi system
    how you set it up depend on the router you own consult the manual or go to the router maker's website

  • I have the earliest version iPad (updated running system) I am trying to use my earbuds. How do I turn off the external audio so the sound only comes through the earbuds?

    I am trying to use earbuds with my iPad Earliest version with updated running system. How do I get the sound to only come through the esrbuds and not be audible to everyone around me? Thanks!

    That's strange.
    You should inky be getting audio from the headphones.
    Make sure that they are plugged in all the way.
    If they aren't, you will get both audio.
    Turn up the volume on your ipad with the buttons.
    where it shows the bell, it should say Headphones.

  • I have 8.0.1 on a Mac using OS 10.6.8. Firefox directs my printer to print everything off any website in red. Other browser does not do this, so I assume this is a Moziklla problem Please help.

    see above

    Update: my problem was solved by getting my VGA monitor out of the attic. Once windows was done and I ran the setup.exe off the Snow Leopard CD, all of the drivers were updated to allow me to switch back over to my apple cinema display.
    Also, I did need to hold down the option key to select the windows CD to install...and again to select the windows partition to boot but so far everything is going well with Bootcamp 3.0.4 and XP SP2...other than it is windows.

  • Despite my selecting Firefox as default browser, any link clicked goes to open IE browser, but that too does not open and sends an error message. Please advise.

    I installed a HP printer on my desktop. To do this I had to temporarily discontinue some services (start/run/services.msc). The printer was installed successfully, but IE got currupted, it seems. Any link clicked went to IE instead of my default browser Firefox, but IE too would not function.
    Please advise what may have happened and how do I correct it?

    {Ctrl + P} and select your printer in the Printer - Name box near the top of that window.
