I downloaded firefox 4, and the installer keeps asking me to close firefox before it will continue. i don't have anything open. did have earlier versions, 3.6. . what is going on

i cannot delete firefox either as it will not delete while it thinks that i still have a firefox page open. kinda stuck.

The akamai servers are used by a lot of web servers to store large files (e.g. images and media files)
A domain with fbstatic in it is likely a domain that is used by Facebook (fb), so you may have other problems if you stay on such a web page or get redirected
If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like <i>Adblock Plus</i> or <i>NoScript</i> or <i>Flash Block</i> that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • I am trying to update to 5.0 and the installer keeps saying that I need to close Firefox to continue, but I have closed it and it still says I need to close it.

    I then tried to uninstall Mozilla 4.0 and it keeps saying the same thing that I need to close firefox before I can continue, but it is closed. I have no browsers open and it still will not allow the uninstall or the install.

    No iPod touch is capable of running both iOS 4.2 and 7.1.2, and you appear to have a second generation iPod touch, which can't be updated past 4.2.1.

  • I show that I have downloaded Firefox on my MacBook Pro but don't see an icon to add to my Dock. What do I do?

    How do I find it? It isn't in my Application's.

    Hi!
    This article ([[How to sync Firefox settings between computers]]) explains how to set up your Sync account in several devices.
    From what I can understand in your questions, you are missing the Part 3: your laptop is fully synched but your desktop is not. Once you configure it, the synching should be fairly quick and all the data from both computers will be merged. If it takes longer than expected, you could force it by clicking on the "Sync Now" button that appears in the Firefox button (Tools category in Win XP and Mac OS X) once the device is properly configured.
    Let me know if you still have doubts.

  • I'm trying to download firefox on my company computer but don't have administrator rights. Any idea how I can download without administrator rights?

    I ran the download and when it got to the end where it should launch it told me that I didn't have sufficient administrator rights to complete the download.

    The Lion redemption code can only be used in the App Store application found in 10.6.6, and higher Macs.
    You can't download it from a PC or a phone.

  • On loading Firefox, I get message that I don't have updated version, but I do. 7.0.1 Why do I get this?

    Also, not related: I keep getting an automatic download saying "service provider 22.jsp" - once I downloaded it, and got multiple blank pages. Now I just delete it, but why am I getting this?

  • XI standard upgrade, the installation keeps on being interrupted.

    After trying the XI pro, decided to buy the standard upgrade, and the installation keeps on being interrupted.
    Is that because of the Pro. or because I don't have a 9 installed in my new computer?

    Help?

  • I own and am downloading CS6 for install on a new surface Pro 3 tablet, don't have or want the extended version, but the installer keeps wanting to install the extended version. My regist shows it as Photoshop 13

    Thanks for your help Jeff. When I put serial# in, it won't except it.... I think it wants to see a previous version in my pc because my serial is for an upgrade, but when it put in a serial# for version cs5 it still wont except. Do you think i have to install cs5 first (which is also an upgrade).. which will require that I put in version cs4 etc,.etc., etc.
    Do you know how I can get into an chat with Adobe.Thats what i had to do last time I installed CS6 in my desktop PC.
    Thanks / Ron

  • How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing.

    How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing. I went through the process of clicking through the how to's and the troubleshooting and came to the conclusion that I need to install the adobe drive 5 but I can not complete the installation. I may be incorrect on this so I need immediate assistance as I have poster and ad deadlines. I also tried disabling the gatekeeper and solution 3 on the troubleshooting of slow saving on photoshop.
    Any help is much appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Are you attempting to save the file to a network location instead of your local hard drive? If so, this is probably why you are encountering an issue and why Adobe Drive would be the solution. As we've documented, it is a bad idea to open from or save directly to a network source: Networks, removable media | Photoshop | CS4 and later. Drive can help you get around this by setting up an Adobe supported virtual connection to the network. Thus, if installing Adobe Drive is the solution you need and your need help with installing Drive, please post to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
    If you are not saving to a network location, then Adobe Drive is not going to be the answer. Then we'll need to know more about the file you are saving.

  • Help!!!! I am downloading word for Mac from my school and the installer program froze

    Help!!!! I just bought my Mac earlier today and I began to download a free copy of Word for Mac. The download went great, but the installation is not working. I received a pop up saying I had to close Safari in order to continue. I closed it, hit the continue button and installer froze. Now the pop up keeps blinking on and off and I have this black and white spinning wheel of death. Also the time of the installation keeps increasing. Please help!

  • HT5037 I still get the message to download the app, but I did, and the installation was allegedly successful.  This even happens after a reboot

    I still get the message to download the app, but I did, and the installation was allegedly successful.  This even happens after a reboot

    I guess that was a bit cryptic.  I'm trying to update iPhoto from system 10.5.6, a PowerPC system, to 10.8.  The app I downloaded is iPhotoLibraryUpgrader.dmg. I open that and I see Iphoto Library Upgrader.pkg.  Igo through the install, which says it completes successfully.  However, when I double-click on the iPhoto icon on the dock, I get the oroginal message that the upgrade must be installed.  I hope this gives enough information to diagnose the problem.  I apologize for the first message's laack of detail.

    You can only use apps downloaded from the App store, not via a browser. There is no Flash for any iOS device including the iPod.
