I Can't upgrade my FireFox to the newest version.

It won't allow me to upgrade, I can download and install as if there is no issue, but once I actually get back on, it's still the same old version.

Chances are your user agent is just wrong. See below to check:
* Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
* If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
* Filter = general.useragent.
* Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
* Then restart Firefox

Can I upgrade from Firefox 3 (updated newest version) to Firefox 4 and keep my bookmarks and settings or will I lose them if I upgrade ?

I want to upgrade to the new Firefox 4 from my Firefox 3. But I don't want to lose my settings, tags and bookmarks that I have now. So my question is: Can I upgrade without losing these ?
Please Help !

Firefox 4 will by default use the same profile folder (location where bookmarks, passwords etc are stored) as previously installed versions. You will not lose your user data by upgrading.

I just upgraded my firefox to the latest version, and it keep flickering in black and white, it makes it almost impossible to see or read anything, any suggestions?

I just upgraded firefox to the latest version, and everything seems to be flickering? Mainly ads and text boxes.
It makes it almost impossible to browse.
Any suggestions?

Take a look at the [[Firefox Hangs]] article. It should have some useful information that may help fix this situation. If that does not help, you may need to try Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] and if it works, try the following step:
Deactivate all plugins in Safe Mode. If Firefox works alright in without Safe Mode, then activate each plugin one at a time until the problem appears again. It will probably be this plugin that is causing the problem.

How can i create a slideshow with the newest version of dreamweaver?

I am trying to figure out how to create a slideshow but i cannot find any explanations for the new version of Dreamweaver. Can anyone help?

DW doesn't make slideshows. You'll need to use a jQuery plugin or a 3rd party commercial Extension.
Do a web search for:
jQuery Cycle2
jQuery WOW Slider
jQuery Fancybox2

When I sign in to yahoo I have a custom security sign in seal that lets me know that I'm actually on yahoo and not some phoney site. Since I upgraded my firefox to the newest edition, whenever I sign off of yahoo my security sign seal disappears

Trying to find out why my yahoo sign in seal keeps disappearing every time I sign off of yahoo and shut down firefox. When I bring firefox back up and go back to yahoo my sign in seal is no longer there and I have to create a new one

Is that seal saved in a browser cookie or otherwise like a Flash cookie (object)?
You can try to recreate the seal as suggested above.
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
* Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Every time i update firefox to the newest version, it wont connect to the internet. Why?

every time i get the firefox update I lose internet connection. I have to uninstall it and install old version...very annoying

What Firewall do you use? It's possible it is blocking Firefox from accessing the internet when it updates. Try to read [[Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet]] and [[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]]

Can't upgrade to firefox 16

So I checked in Firefox 15.0 and my Norton Security Suite Toolbar looks all ready for Firefox 16, but when I clicked on "Help", "About" and "Check for updates", it keeps saying that my Firefox is "up to date"! I want to upgrade to Firefox 16, but all I get is an installation link for Firefox 15.0.1! This stinks! How can I upgrade to Firefox 16? I'm on Windows XP SP3, BTW.

Basically the release is coming out on a Microsoft Patch yesterday(Tuesday), we check to ensure that we don't have conflicts with Windows Update.
thank you

I downloaded the "newest version" of Firefox. Now when I try & open FF, I get "Your computer must be rebooted." I have rebooted 7 times & still can't get in.

I got a message that the version of Firefox I was using was outdated, so I downloaded the newest version.
Now when I try & open Firefox I get the message, "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Firefox. Do you want to reboot now?"
I have rebooted my computer 6 times & get that same message every time and still cannot get into Firefox. Has anyone else encountered this or know the solution?

Hi Dann, did you delete to the Recycle Bin, or did you do a more drastic permanent delete (e.g., Shift+Delete) or empty the Recycle Bin?
''If you think it might be in the Recycle Bin:''
First, make sure hidden folders are viewable. You can do that using Windows Explorer or My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View tab. Look for the radio buttons to show or not to show hidden files and folders.
Now look for C:\Documents and Settings\''username''\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles or some part of that path, or your actual profile folder, which would have had a semi-random name, typically ending with default, or the bookmarkbackups folder, which is the ultimate prize.
''If it's not in the Recycle Bin:''
To recover your old Firefox settings folder (profile folder), try using a utility like Piriform's Recuva:
http://www.piriform.com/recuva
That needs to run ASAP before deleted files are overwritten.
The folder you're looking for would have had a semi-random name, but be located here:
C:\Documents and Settings\''username''\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
By default, that folder is hidden. Make sure hidden folders are viewable. You can do that using Windows Explorer or My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > View tab. Look for the radio buttons to show or not to show hidden files and folders.
In particular, a bookmarkbackups folder would be a wonderful thing to be able to recover.
Hopefully one of these methods will work for you.

Can't get the upgrade to over-write the older version

i have tried to upgrade firefox but the older version keeps coming up. How do i get the newest version to over-write the older - according to my info i am using 25.0.1 which seems to be the newest version but i have some website saying i am using an older version. I have windows vista 2007

Also, the "FBSMTWB" that appears in your current user agent string (you'll see it in about:config when you venture in there) is associated with an extension that many people find annoying -- unfortunately I can't recall which one it was.
If you haven't reviewed your extensions for a while, you might want to see whether any deserve to be disabled or removed, particularly if they are nonessential or unrecognized. To open the Add-ons page, either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Hope that prevents your user agent from being changed back to that old version.

I upgraded my Itunes to the latest version and now it won't let me view my library with the column browser. Can i get that back?

i upgraded my Itunes to the latest version and now it won't let me view my library with the column browser. Can i get that back? I tried using the shortcut for it and nothing happens. When I try to do it from the view menu, it shows up as something I can't click on. The new library format is driving me crazy and I just want to get back to the old library view.

We need to sort out some facts here first:
• You cannot be running Mt. Lion on your iMac G5. What Mac is it? What is the Model Identifier listed in About This Mac; More Info; Hardware Overview
• What is the model of your Epson Scanner?
• Have you attempted to scan using Image Capture, located in your Applications folder?
• Your Palm Pilot software will only run in Snow Leopard; so depending upon which Mac you have, you will either have to:
1) partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it to "dual-boot" when you want to access you Palm software, or
2) install Snow Leopard Server (now available from Apple for $20 telephone orders USA & Canda only) into Parallels 8 to run your Palm software in Mt. Lion:

I downloaded the newest version of Firefox while I was trying to access Yahoo! and now it is horribly, horribly slow. My Internet access is by dial-up. How can I speed things up or how can I get back my prevous version? What number was it?

I presume that the reason why it takes so much time for Firefox to load and then for me to get responses is because my Internet access if by dial-up. I need a less rich, or complicated, version of Firefox. The previous version was okay in terms of speed. What can I do to speed up the processing. Is it because I downloaded the version from the Yahoo website?

Try using this extension. <br />
