I have down loaded firefox 8 severaltimes but how do i activate it?

As I said , I have down loaded firefox several times but when I click on the firefox icon it still opens the old version. How do i get the new version running?

You posted here with Firefox 8.0 on WinXP, unless you are using a different PC right now.

  • Have down loaded Maverick OS two days ago. to activate it asked for my Administrator password which I could not remember. I changed my Password. Now where do I find the Mavereick OS on my computer as i can now give my Administrator password.

    Have down loaded Maverick two days ago. To activate it asked for my Administrator ID which I had forgotten.
    Now i have managed to change my ID. Now to instal Maverick I cannot find it on my computer. If I down load it again it will use my Internet plans %gb mor from out provider. So How do i activate my down loaded Maverick OS.

    No It did not help. After Down loading it asked for my administrator ID which I could not give as I had forgotten.
    Now I changed my administrator Id and remember it. But now I cannot find the same anywhere on my laptop. it is not in application as i could not instal it. so where is it. If I down load it again Iwill b using 5GB of my internet again from my plan of 30Gb which my provider will minus again. In short I will b using 10gb of my plan for a 5gb Maverick.

    If you click the link to '''more system details...''' (top right of your opening post), you'll see the Java version you appear to have (or had) installed.
    Can you try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] ? If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

  • I have a DVD from The Best of Adobe Photoshop Elements, which requires Firefox 3.+ to opperate. I have down loaded Firefox 3.6, can get on lime but disc will not operate??

    I was able to run the disc previously, a message came on to upgrade, I did and haven't been able to run since. I've installed Firefox 3.6b but can't get disc to operate. Message I now receive says to install 3.+, but not how.
    Have not tried their web yet (next). (Adobe) www.photoshopelementsuser.com

    Ok, let me try to explain step-by-step:
    #The bookmarks are '''not''' in HTML file. This is OK. Firefox does not store the bookmarks in HTML format.
    #Even if you boot the old Firefox, it will show the new bookmarks. This is also OK. You can't really do much about that.
    #Uninstalling and re-installing Firefox will '''not''' solve your problem. Firefox will '''not''' see the bookmarks in the external hard drive. Please '''do not''' try this approach.
    Now, to make things as simple as possible, let's try to bring all of your old bookmarks and settings into the new computer.
    #Make sure that you have closed Firefox completely. This can be done by selecting '''File''' menu and then clicking on '''Exit'''.
    #You said you were able to locate the Profile folder on the '''external hard drive''', right? Just to confirm, the name of this folder is something like xxxxxxxx.default (for example, my Profile folder is named 9qnmvkea.default. Yours will be something similar).
    #Double click on this folder to open it.
    #Select the '''Edit''' menu and click on '''Select All'''. Select the '''Edit''' menu again and then click on '''Copy'''.
    #Now, open Firefox from your new computer and follow the instructions given in this article to locate your new Profile folder: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information#Locate_your_profile_folder Locate your profile folder]. Again, this folder would be named like xxxxxxxx.default
    #Once this is done, again close Firefox by selecting '''File''' menu and then clicking on '''Exit'''.
    #Double click on your new Profile folder to open it.
    #Select the '''Edit''' menu and click on '''Paste'''. Windows will ask you if you want to replace existing files with same name. Select '''replace'''. Wait till all the files have been replaced.
    #Open Firefox again from the new computer. Hopefully, you should see your old bookmarks now.

  • My Mac is coming tomorrow so Im trying to down load the windows migration assistant. Its keeps tellin me I need microsoft net framework.  have down loaded net framework but I still cant download migration asst

    I cant download migration asst.
    what am I doing wrong

    Well,
    I tried the "Internet Recovery" option and finally saw Mac OS X Mountain Lion's install page but after waiting 7 hours when I just thought its going to start installing, I got another progress bar with 36 hours remining time to download "Additional Components" then after progressing 2-3 hours, it shows "Unable to write installation something..., Contact Apple Care"
    Then I accidently rebooted the machine and now it seems Internet Recovery don't work anymore, it shows "support.apple.com - 40 something!" error, and finally when I tried to reboot using Recovery HD, I found it's gone as-well!
    To be honest, I don't know what to do now, I am and dissapointed... also I do not have any Apple Store nearby, there is an authorized country reseller almost 650/km far away from my residents and they even charges too high (like $250) for doing such repairs (as per phone conversation)
    If anyone have any idea or anything to help me with, please do share- I'd be eternally grateful!

  • Have down loaded shiftlife organizer but am unable to delete info i have entered. i would like to restart adding shifts

    How do you completely clear your shiftlife organizer calender of all events? I would like to add my new schedule on a 6 week rotation

  • I have down loaded some screensavers, but I am stuck there. I can't get them opened from the down load.

    i downloaded somefree screensavers from american greeting cards. How do i get them to open to use as screensavers

    You would be better off contacting the site you downloaded the screensavers from. You may need to run a setup file to install the screensavers. The site you downloaded them from should be able to confirm what you need to do.

  • Have down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion. Indesign CS 5 is not working and requests Java script CE6. Apple stated Java 10 , but it still does not operate although Bridge works so as Light room and Photo Elements. How do I solve this problem

    Have down loaded Yosemite over Mountain Lion. Indesign CS5 does not operate although Bridge, Light room and also Photoshop elements operate OK A sub menu from Indesign request Java SE 6, after a long play with Apple  I end up with Java 10 How can I solve this problem rapidly. Pity apple do not test there products before offering them to the public. It costs us. Many thanks Davi E-C 

    It isn't Apple's job to ensure third party software works with a new OS. But Java 6 is here:

  • How long does it take to down load Firefox and how do I know it is down loading

    I have tried to down load firefox and during the down load iot tells me it starts at 1 minute remaining and it climbs fro this to 3 hours and I cancel the down load. How long does the down load take and how do I know it is down loading?

    WOO-HOOOOOO!  I got it all back!!  Yayyyyy! (jumping up and down).  You see, this is a picture file I've been working on for almost 15 years.
    OK.  Here's the skinny... I finally got an appointment with the Apple Store to discuss with a technician.  He went through the same steps I did (C-Opt-iPhoto) and then trying to repair, then rebuild the folder.  He tried several other options, which I had also tried, thank you to the Community Discussion boards!    He kept puzzling over the icon in front of my " iPhoto Library.photolibrary ".  It had a blank document in front of it, instead of the iPhoto icon.  Even though I could pull up every one of my pictures via Preview, I just could not get them to upload or open in iPhoto.
    He suggested I go back yet another day from the incident-day which messed up my library.  Skeptically, I did... (which I'd done quite a few times before).  EXCEPT.  This time, as I looked at my December 3, 2012 Pictures folder, there were some other files in it.  I had only been hi-lighting the iPhoto Library and trying to Restore.  You don't suppose...?  I hi-lighted everything in the Pictures folder, pressed Restore... and it started to transfer.  I waited perhaps 45 minutes.  (I had a 73GB file.)  But it restored everything - even the Events.
    Crux:  If iPhoto doesn't seem to be able to Restore your iPhoto Library, choose ALL the files in your backed-up Pictures folder (not just the iPhoto Library).  The technician's clue to me was he didn't think some needed sub-folders got transferred.  He was right. The visual indication was, when I opened Finder, the icon in front of it was a blank document.  It needs to have the iPhoto icon or some needed sub-folder didn't get transferred.
    I hope this helps!!
    Thanks for all the support!

  • My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think.

    My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think but it is linked as a plug in with chrome and IE.  How can I get my windows to recognise the .swf files to play them.

    The downloaded file is the projector, not an installer; you need to make the file association manually:
    move the downloaded exe file to a location you can remember, e.g. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    right-click on a swf file and select Open with > Choose default program
    navigate to the folder you saved the player and select flashplayer_13_sa.exe

    Go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the De-authorise All button in your account's details. Use the De-authorise All and then authorise the PCs you still have.

  • Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

    I have down loaded Aurora,Beta4,and Firefox. Which won should i use.'

    That is up to you to decide. For some details about the different versions see https://developer.mozilla.org/devnews/index.php/2011/04/07/new-development-channels-and-repositories-for-rapid-releases/
    If you have not used to testing software you should stick with the release version (Firefox 4.0.1).
