I cannot download Firefox 4.0 it says cannot be open due to unknown error, so try saving to disk. Why and how do you save to disk when it just says "click here" for upgrade?

i have tried to download the newest version of Firefox and when i click on " click here" it downloads the version 4.0 then when it's finished a window flops down and says,
Download Error, users/sue/downloads/Firefox4.0-4.dmg could not be opened ,because an unknown error occured. Try safing to disk first and then opening the file. ok?"
so how do i save it to disk if i'm clicking on a "click here' word on the web page?

I totally agree, there have been many Mac users that have been effected by this.

  • I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred" HOW do I fix this?

    Every time I try to download the new version it just says I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred - Try saving to disk first and then opening the file"

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions 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 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • I just upgraded my ipad OS and now my ipad is not picking up the 3G network.  Why and how do I fix this?  When I go into cellular data and view account it says my ipad is activated and ready to go.  What gives???

    Why and how do I fix this?  When I go into cellular data and view account it says my ipad is activated and ready to go.  What gives???
      It was working fine up until I upgraded the OS which I hadn't done in many versions so the ipad was not working as well as it should.  Now it is searching for the network. 

        Hello noodles074!
    Let's get your device working again! It's possible that your device just needs to be reprovisioned on our network. Please go to Settings>General>Reset>Subscriber Services>Reprovision Account. This may take several minutes. After allowing about 5 minutes for completion, please power your iPad off and back on, and test it again. Let us know if this takes care of it!
    Thank you,

    I'll suggest you uninstall what you have downloaded, run a virus/spyware scan of your computer to make sure it's virus and spyware free. Then download from the following website. You should always download Firefox from either the built-in update system of Firefox or the following website. Please let us know your status after you have done these.

  • How do you disable the sound when sending tweets from "Click to Tweet" in the Notification Center?

    So, ever since the "Click to Tweet" button appeared, anytime you post to Twitter with it, your heard a bird whistling sound. This was cute at first, but has become increasingly annoying (and probably not just to me, but also to my co-workers). Sure, I could mute my speakers prior to sending, but a.) I usually forget, and b.) I shouldn't have to.
    In a similar manner, the "Click to Post" to Facebook button makes the "woosh" noise that Mail.app makes when sending an email.
    These sounds should be able to be disabled or muted. The only solution I've found online so far is to move/rename/change permissions of the actual sound file itself on the file system. That seems way to extreme.
    In summary: am I just missing some obvious setting, or is there really no way to mute/disable these sounds?

    The best way to do this is to leave all files unchanged, but render the file containing that horrendous bird noise unreadable to the system. Open a terminal window, and paste this command:
    sudo chmod 000 /System/Library/Frameworks/Social.framework/XPCServices/com.apple.twitter.xpc/C ontents/Resources/TwitterSent.caf
    That's it. Your Tweets should hereinafter be silent unless you change TwitterSent.caf's permissions again.

  • How do you add a Comment when editing document in Word for ipad?

    How do you add a Comment when editing a document in Word for ipad. I've subscribed to Office, so have full editing functions. Can Track changes etc in Review, but can't see how to add a marginal Comment.

    Comments, like they are in Numbers for OS X, are not really supported in iOS. Normally, they rely on a mouse-over to read them. Since there is no mouse on the iPad, it stands to reason they are not there.
    I believe Eric Ross's comments is more geared towards used said Numbers docs on iWork.com.

  • I cannot download firefox. I own the puter. I am the administrator. I never gave it a password. It will not let me run as administrator or as my name. pls help.)

    I cannot download firefox. I own the puter. I am the adminis-trator. I never gave it a password. It will not let me run as administrator or as my name. pls help. The "run as pop-up box says: You may not nave the necessary permissions to use all the features of the program you are about to run. You may run this program as a different user or continue to run the program as the current user. Un-filled circle:Current User (HpDV6)Annie Erker. Filled-in circle:Run this program as the following user: User Name(prepopulated):Administrator. Password; OK; cancel

    Sounds like then maybe a "friend" got hold of your phone and set a SIM card password.  Not much you can do if that is the case if you do not know the password except go to your carrier and request a new SIM card.

  • Internet Explorer cannot download Firefox/Support/2.6.8.exe

    IE8 cannot download Firefox file. It does not give me the Run/Download option, it just attempts to open it initially and stops before it gets to this screen. (It also does the same thing for MSN Explorer when I tried that instead and won't save any of my IE settings, Windows problem not Firefox)
    I think that I need to change a setting on the computer or on Internet Explorer in order to download anything. It's not a case of where to download from.

    I see you have just updated your original question, it is better to reply to an answer rather than update the original question, it makes it easier to see the updates.
    Since the problem is with IE, you would be better off asking in a forum that specializes in Microsoft products. You can try asking in the Internet Explorer forum at [http://eileenslounge.com/ Eileen's Lounge].
