I cant update my fire fox WHY?

I will get a pop up from fire fox saying i have no more protection to update my Firefox. So i click on update, It comes back and says unable to update. Unknown reason, Problems with setup.

Firefox 3.6 versions are last made for PPC Macs. You can the latest 3.6 version here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6 /7, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 .

Firefox add-ons take some memory. This amount varies depending on the add-on.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Does this decrease the memory usage? Please report back soon.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Cant update in ipod touch why???

why i cant update all of my application in my ipod touch? when i go to updates tab theres a massage saying that there is no internet connection same in featured tab, but when i go to top 25 tab there is a connection why??plss help

Maybe these discussions:
App Store Updates (but only Updates)...: Apple Support Communities
Apps suddenly don't update: Apple Support Communities

My computer has been running "dial up" slow since the last update of Fire Fox. Is there any connection?

My computer was just updated to a higher speed connection and was doing good speed wise even before. Now it takes forever to load or navigate in all capacities, that is until I got to this site and I can click as fast as I can here and there is no slow down. Will go back to my home page and see how bad it is there. My wife has a Mac laptop and she even said that since the new update, Fire Fox has been running a little weird concerning the opening of a new window unexpectedly. Really want to see if there is anyone else that might be having similar issues with their computers after the new update.

When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

Can only log into twitter threw Google, not Fire Fox why ?

I have stopped using Google, and moved to Fire Fox and Yahoo, and all is great. But I have never been able to log into Twitter on Fire Fox. I have contacted Twitter several times and no help. The only way for me to use Twitter is on Google or my phone.. I would really like to be able to log into Twitter on Fire Fox...
Also I did an update two days ago, and many of my sites can no longer be loaded, do to update... do I need to reinstall or reupdate ....
Thanks for the help, Trey Coppland

If clearing cookies didn't help then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies got corrupted.
*Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Deleting+cookies
You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

After updating to Fire Fox 7.0, Adobe Reader X, Java Console, Skype and Verizon Tool Bar were disabled and noted as not compatible with this updated version. What can be done to rectify this? Needed for school work.

The previous version of Fire Fox worked with these, now the updated version has disabled them. Is it possible to revert back to the previous Fire Fox?

after update to firefox 7 : java console 6.0.24 , kaspersky url advisor 12.0.0.415 , kaspersky virtual keyboard 12.0.0.415 , anti banner 12.0.0.415 were disabled .

HT1338 i have a mac book pro and, a i cant update my flash player ,why?

every time iwant to see a video on line ,icant it says ihave update my flash player.but then after iget the sofware that this mac itsnot compatibleor i dont know what that means .can somebody give any advise or input on this pls, i really apprecciateit if u would thankx.

It's because your OS 10.4 version is so old that you can't run the latest version of Flash. You are not even running the latest version of Tiger OS 10.4, which is OS 10.4.11.
Don't know if this hack will work on your Mac since it has an Intel processor. But you can try it.

Hi, I have the newest update of Fire Fox which is 10.0.2. I can't get the Java plugin to download to Firefox.

I am wanting to get Java working on Firefox so I can utilize chat rooms and other programs that use Java, and no it is not Javascript that I am talking about. Every time I go to a site that utilizes Java it tells me that I need to download the Java plugin. When I click on the link it starts to download the Java plugin, but instead of installing the plugin it installs Java for Internet Explorer instead.

Hi johndoe3815. You can check out how to download and install Java for Firefox in this page:

I keep getting a restore to previous session box every time that I log on to Fire fox--Why

I am getting the "restore to previous session" box every time that I now start my Firefox browser get onto the internet. This is on my laptop. Why do I get this box on my start page. Is there a special method of signing off with the browser? This has been happening for several weeks.

That is a new feature that started with Firefox 4.0, with the '''about:home''' homepage which was also new in Firefox 4.0. The previous session is saved automatically, unlike earlier versions.
If you don't like seeing Restore Previous Session, change your homepage to a different web page.

I have updated to Fire Fox 4. My windstream provider has recently updated to a new view, which I prefer. I cannot login to the new view since the update. I get a message that says the browser I am using is only supported by the classic view.

Thank you

Thank you for you input so far.....
I think we are getting nearer to the solution sort of!
Let me get this straight...... I have paid for content on itunes, bought the apple devicds in order to play said content, now I have to subscribe $25 for the privilage of playing MY library content on MY other devices. Which wasn't such an issue to do before the new and improved itunes version!!
Have I got that correct. I think I cannot associate my other iOS devices with my library because I am unwilling to pay further through the nose!!!??? or am I missing something?
Thanks
Frustrated even more now!!

Microsoft works will not work on fire fox why

when i want to cut and paste a article from the web page to microsoft works word processor
the firefox stops working how can i fix this
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after i downloaded firefox

Sorry, just to be clear:
(1) Which did you use to make the change and which do not display correctly:
orange Firefox button > Print > Page Setup 
''or'' 
classic File menu > Page Setup, or
the Properties button in the Print dialog?
(2) If you switch to a different printer, such as a PDF printer driver (many free ones you can install, such as [http://www.primopdf.com/ PrimoPDF] and [http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp CutePDF Writer]), can you regain access to Firefox's Page Setup dialog?
