I can't update firefox. When I click on the upate link it says to click on the fire fox at the top of the page. There is no firefox at the top of the page.

Firefox button that says to click on to upgrade isn't there.

Does reading this article help you
*[[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

Are you posting from the device you have a problem on ?
* Windows 7 computer using Firefox 25
The firefox button was the icon top left on your Firefox window. If you have a newer version of Firefox the button to use is the new {three bar icon) menu button -> Help {(?) icon) -> About Firfefox.
If you are unable to use that method then download a fresh copy of Firefox, from getfirefox.com save it on your machine, and then run the installer. Do NOT use any option to remove information, any offer to reset or refresh, and do not use any third party uninstaller.

  • When I try to load firefox it only shows in the bar at the bottom of the screen. I can highlight it but when I click on it, it just returns to the bar.

    When I try to load firefox it only shows in the bar at the bottom of the screen. I can highlight it but when I click on it, it just returns to the bar. Can't get it to maximize. Please help.

    The "System Tray" is located at the very bottom right of your screen and is a list of most/all running applications that will show in this list.
    For your SysFader issue, this "may" be the problem:
    1 Find the "My Computer" desktop icon and right-click it. A pull-down menu will appear. Select "Properties."
    2 Click on the "Advanced" tab. This will load a new page of options.
    3 Select the "Visual Effects" tab at the top of the window and deselect "Animate Windows when minimizing and maximizing," "Fade or slide menus into view," "Fade or slide Tool Tips into view" and "Fade out Menu items after checking."
    4 Click "OK." This will remove most if not all of the Sysfader effects, at the same time correcting related errors that used to come up during opening a new file or program.

  • Why does Firefox 32.0 keep prompting me to update, then failing to get past the "connecting to update server" when I click the "update now" button?

    Happens with annoying frequency. The fresh install of 32.0 is barely a month old but this has been happening since a few days afterwards. I have let the update window run for up to 20 minutes. Nothing happened, ever. Apparently it never actually connects. Nor will it update automagically when I click on the "About" line on the Firefox menu bar dropdown.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
    *Firefox 32.0.3: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • I am informed by FF that there are updates. When I click on them the window just says it's trying to connect to the server and never does. I have a Mac Powerbook with 10.4.11 and FF 3.6.13

    # Question
    I am informed by FF that there are updates. When I click on them the window just says it's trying to connect to the server and never does. I am never able to update and I believe FF is now up to 3.6.17.
    I have a Mac Powerbook with 10.4.11 and FF 3.6.13.

    That is because that Firefox 3.6.x version has been released later than the Firefox 4 version.
    If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG 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

  • When I try to open the Iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update but when I click on the software update tab, it says that all updates are up to date. I still cant open the Iphoto, what should I do?

    When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?

    How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
    If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
    Otherwise you update via Softare Update
    If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
    If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

  • Update notification shows there are updates but when I click on the update option it shows a blank screen

    The update option on the app store shows a notification that I have 'n' numbers of updates but when I click on the update option it only shows a blank screen. Even after updating the apps individually from the purchased option, the update option still shows a blank screen instead of "All you applications are up to date". Please help.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    How can i delete Record when i click on Delete Link.

    Manoj,
    If something does not work then you should report back on the same thread so that there is continuity to the whole episode. Be as lucid as you can be so that people know whats the scenario. E.g. is not working is not enough. What happens? Does is show error , go blank, goes to another page... all that is important.
    Its for posterity, down the line others will also visit the thread (may be).
    Regards,

  • Can't update Firefox. I'm using OS10.2.8. ,Firefox 2.0.0.12 .

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [/questions/835635]</blockquote>
    When I tried to update to Firefox4 it told me 4 wont work with OS10.2.8. Can I update Firefox 2.0.0.12 to an earlier version of Firefox than4? How?
    Thanks

    I think the lastest version you can run is Firefox 2.0.0.20:
    ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/
    That is not a secure version, so you might need to switch to a browser that still is getting regular security updates.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

    This is usually a problem with hardware acceleration.
    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

  • The App Store indicates that 5 items need to be updated. When I go to the Update page, only a blank page appears and no application logo appears for updating. Would appreciate receiving a solution for this.

    Okay - let's cut to the chase...
    If the Menu Bar (File, Edit... Help) shown in my screenshot below is not visible, use CTRL+B to display it. Then click on Help/Check for Updates. If one is available, you will be able to select it at this time.
    Note the item at the bottom of the list; About iTunes. Selecting that will show you which version of iTunes you are using.
    An alternative method to display the Menu Bar is click on the box in the top left of your iTunes window...

  • My iPad shows I have apps to update but when I go to the App Store and the update tab there is nothing there

    My iPad II show I have apps to update but when I go to the App Store and the update tab it is blank and doesn't allow me to update anything

    You can either wait it out or a work around has been found. In the app store click on the purchased tab. Your apps should come up and you can manually download each app (the apps that have updates will have banners on them)

  • Have reformatted my Imac using original discs (installed leopard (10.5)) tried to do the software update but it cant download the itunes update and when it gets to the configure update screen after restart for main update, it just gets stuck. HELP!

    have reformatted my Imac using original discs (installed leopard (10.5)) tried to do the software update but it cant download the itunes update and when it gets to the configure update screen after restart for main update, it just gets stuck. HELP!
    The configure bar gets about an 1/8 full and then just does nothing. I think its lists the update as combo update? cant remember with out checking.
    I have tried to do the disk verify and repair but this has made no difference.
    Please let me know what i need to do, I have reformatted the mac just to start over as was clogged with a lot of useless data, I had installed lion (10.7) from the app store previously and now cant seem to find a way to re install lion. I hope I dont need to pay for it again?

    If you erased your hard drive, you'll need to reinstll OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to access the App store. You won't have to pay for OS X 10.7 Lion again. Did you try booting to the recovery partition by holding the command and r keys down? If that's still there, you can reinstall OS X 10.7 from there.
    If you're looking to install the current iTunes, you need OS X 10.6.8 at a minimum.
    If you're still trying to update OS X 10.5 Leopard, you can download the combo update from here.  Download, use Disk Utility to repair permissions, apply the update, then repair permissions again. That will take you to OS X 10.5.8.
