I downloaded Firefox upgrade but old icons remain on screen, is it safe to drag them to trash & delete? Or how else do i get rid of them?

No, i do not have any more details to provide!

Yes it is but a good idea to backup your computer once in awhile

  • I'VE DOWNLOADED FIREFOX TWICE, BUT THE ICON HAS NOT APPEARED TO DRAG DOWN TO MY LAUNCH BAR. WHAT TO DO NEXT?

    I HAVE AN APPLE MACBOOK, LION OSX-10, TRYING TO DOWNLOAD FIREFOX TO OBTAIN YAHOO TOOLBAR SUBSEQUENT TO RECENT SOFTWARE CHANGE.

    Which version did you download?<br />
    The latest Firefox 3.6.24 version or Firefox 8.0.1?

    You can find the latest Firefox releases here:
    *Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    It might be better not to update to the Firefox 9 version that will be released later today because there are still unresolved crashes on Mac with that version.

  • I went to Firefox extentions to remove facesmooch, but there isn't any extensions listed, how else can i get rid of it?

    I downloaded a free youtube downloader and told it I didn't want facesmooch, but it installed it anyway and now I can't get rid of it. I have tried going to the add-ons manager and removing it from the extensions, but there are no extensions listed, it isn't in add/remove programs, the file I downloaded isn't a folder so I can't "get in to it", and I have uninstalled and deleted all content related to the youtube downloader. Please help me get rid of facesmooch.

    Sounds like some form of ad-aware.
    Boot up your pc in safe mode w/ networking, open FF and type "about:plugins" in the url address bar. Take note of anything that looks like it may be associated w/ "Facemooch". Close FF and do a search for any malicious looking files listed under the plugin section and append "bak" to the extension. You may need to open task manager prior to doing this to ensure the file isn't running, if "rundll32.exe or a malicious looking file, a simple search should be able to determine this, end the task prior to changing the extension (ie. somefile.dll.bak) <- this can be changed in the search wizard.
    Fire up msconfig while your still in Safe Mode, and uncheck any startup programs that are of unknown origin. (this does not delete anything, but just keeps it from booting at startup) msconfig should be available from the run command, just type in "msconfig" and enter.
    norton also has a freeware program called "autorun", very useful in stopping malicious files in their tracks.
    Most file validity can usually be determined by the directory they are lying in, for example, most viruses or malicious programs tend to load themselves into the c://windows/system32 directory or root directory (synonym).

  • I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back?

    I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back? It said my tool bars are not compatible. I want them back.

    That is the new appearance Firefox 4 and now Firefox 5, you can easily put things back because Firefox is customizable.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

  • I have Pages '08 3.0.3. Am trying to Download an Upgrade but get a mesdage saying "an eligible Keynote app was not found in the location/Applications/iWork '09. What to do?

    I have successfully imported a Pages document from my (new) iPad but it will not open because it tells me that "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document".
    I have Pages '08 3.0.3. Am trying to Download an Upgrade but get a message saying "an eligible Keynote application was not found in the location/Applications/iWork '09".
    What to do?

    Go to the App Store in your Applications folder, not in a browser, and search for 'Pages':
    Click on the price to buy immediately (there is no 'basket') - the credit card you have registered with iTunes will be charged. Or click on the icon for an information page:
    Again, click on the price to buy immediately - note that you get no 'are you sure', the purchase is immediate and not cancellable.

  • I updated to firefox 5 but all my foxtabs are gone. What can I do. I need them. I've tried to download firefox 4 but I can't

    I love having my foxtabs. They're very convinient. However, as soon as I downloaded firefox 5 they were gone. I've tried to download firefox 4 but I'm sent to downloading firefox 5. I don't want it. I neeeeed my foxtabs. How can I get them back. Will you have foxtabs be compatible with firefox 5. Please help. I truly need my foxtabs.

    Had the same problem, but have now upgraded to Foxtab 1.4.3 (which didn't offer itself via Add-ons Upgrade - had to upgrade manually).
    Now works as before.
    Think FF5 works better than FF4 for me - faster & ok now Foxtab issue gone.

  • I just downloaded firefox 4 but still have the file/edit/view/etc of firefox 3...?

    In the walkthrough of Firefox 4 it shows just one orange button where everything is kept all together, but I still have all the single buttons from Firefox 3. I tried re-downloading Firefox 4 but it didn't change it to the new version, so I'm kind of in limbo between Firefox 3 & 4. Is this just a glitch or how can I get the *full* Firefox 4?

    To get it you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
    If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

  • I downloaded Firefox 4, but don't like it. I want to go back to the previous edition

    I downloaded Firefox 4, but don't like it. I want to go back to the previous version. I don't like having the bookmarks over on the right after all this time of having them on the left and I don't like the way the cursor won't autosnap to buttons the way they used to. I don't have a question other than how to go back to the previous version.

        No worries, agoetz. You can change your voicemail feature any time you'd like. Just log into My Verizon http://bit.ly/xB4iTc and select Change Features. There's a voicemail section to pick from all the different voicemail options available for your phone.

  • My new downloads are mpeg4 my old are mp3.  Is there a way to make them all mp3 so I can transfer them?

    my new downloads are mpeg4 my old are mp3.  Is there a way to make them all mp3 so I can transfer them?

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

    Use Tony's suggestion. I am running it right now and it is awesome. I love Mozilla but they basically screwed all of those older Macs over. Come on Mozilla. These Macs still work, and there are plenty of people with them out there.
