I downloaded Firefox 4 Beta and everytime I tried to open up the browser, I get a message stating I need to reboot the computer in order to complete the upgrade; I've rebooted the computer at least 4 times. I even tried to download a previous version of Firefox and I am still getting the same message that I need to reboot the computer in order to complete the previous upgrade.

I have a very similar problem myself. Error 42408. And my phone isnt being recognized. I have restored my phone with no luck. I completely uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and it worked then when I ejected unplugged and plugged it back in it had the same problem over again.. I have no idea what to do?

Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit". That problem is frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin. Read all of the following articles. 
NOTE: Establish a habit of exiting/closing Firefox with Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit to allow an orderly shutdown of Firefox and closing of all of the files that Firefox has open.

I am in the middle of a job using CS 6, but at the same time opening the Creative Suite apps. I created an InDesign file in CS 6, saved it, and now I can't open it. I'm getting this message: Cannot open file because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (10.1). You must use that version or later to open the file." AARRGGHH! So how do I access the file?

Sounds like you opened and saved it in CC, so now you need to go back to CC and either complete the project there, or export to IDML to take it back into CS6.

Steven,
The right way/order is to update the OP, then reinstall the applications.

I cannot update beyond Firefox 8.0. I am running Win 7 and keep getting a message that I need to restart so a previous update can complete. I also get the message that I am not running the newest version of Firefox.

I can download FF 9.0 but not install it. The same thing happened with FF 8.0.1

Same problem here. I installed version 4.0, then removed it and tried to install 3.6. Now no version Firefox will not install. I keep getting a message that I have to restart my computer in order for updates to a previous version can be installed.
Every time I restart the computer and try to install firefox the same message keeps appearing. I attempted to uninstall the earlier version of firefox using "programs and features" in windows but the same message came up and thus I was unable to uninstall using that method.

Sometimes when I send a Pages attachment I can't open it afterwards. I get a message saying I need a newer version of Pages to open it. I find this odd since I created the document. How can I get the attachment open?

Sometimes when I send an email with a Pages attachment it is tuned into a zip file and then I am unable to open the atttachment afterwards. I get a message saying I need a newer version of Pages in order to open the attachment. How can I get around this?

Carol,
The message saying you need a newer version indicates that you saved from a newer version and tried to open with an older version. This has nothing directly to do with whether the file was compressed and packaged in a .zip file.
If you have two versions of Pages on your computer, you must take care to note which of them you are using. You may want to delete a Dock alias to the older version and you may need to change the Finder preference for which version is set to automatically open .pages files.

Version 4 - telling me critiacal update should be installed now... goes nto Downloading firefox window and sits there trying to connect to server forever.. What is going on?

On two of my PCs I received a notice that Firefox has a critical update that should be installed NOW. It takes me into running a program "updater.exe" and pops a firefox window "Software Update" which says it's "Downloading Firefox" and the green bar runs across the window and the text ":Connecting to the update server" appears under the moving bar. That's about all that it does forever. No connect, no update, just the bar going across the window. If it was on ONE of my PCs, I'd think that the PC has a problem. The same results on TWO PCs, one Vista and one XP, makes me think there is some other issue at hand... Please help.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Software Update not working properly)
Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder. 
You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present. 
Vista:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

There is an error message stating that "netlkr.dll was not found," and I have no idea whatsoever what exactly that means. I would very much appreciate some help here. I have also already tried numerous times trying to uninstall and re-install firefox, but to no aveil. Nothing I have tried for a solid day now has done any good. Please help!

I downloaded Firefox 5 and now it won't open at all.

The other day, I was prompted to download Firefox 5. I did so, and now the program won't even open. I've tried restarting my computer as well as turning it off completely; no dice. I had clicked the "restart Firefox" option after it finished installing, but nothing happened.

Are you getting any error messages?

Probably the reboot used to log into the Guest account and then your account again fixed the problem. If often will.

When trying to open a jpeg file I get a message saying the application preview is not open anymore

In trying to open jpegs to examine, I now receive a message stating "The application preview is not open anymore". I can't see my images. Whats the problem here. This is a brand new 27inch iMac.

IMHO the free apps are a band aid fix. If the OP uses Office on a regular basis he will need to upgrade anyway. Personally I have used neooffice and found it substandard however that was just my take. I haven't tried Google's solution.
We both forgot to mention the OP could also use Pages and Numbers to open their Word and Excel files. If he uses Entourage then Mail and iCal would be viable substitutes.

After closing all windows and trying to open a new window I get a message saying Fire Fox is running in another open window

When I close all windows and try to reopen fire fox I get a message that fire fox is already running in another window and needs to be closed to restart.

There are a few possible causes for that error, for details see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
