I just downloaded Firefox 5 but found out that 1passport which is my password program does not support 5 unless I upgrade to Snowleopard. What I need to do is go back to Firefox 4 so I can use 1passport.
Need to go back to Firefox 4 so I can use my 1password security program.
MacBook Pro / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better. Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG. However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.
This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success. So here's what I did:
1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
[also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
5. Go back to the Get Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

I have just downloaded Yosemite but I find that Photoshop Elements 11 does not work properly. If I use a tool like a paint brush or spot healer I cannot paint a full stroke does anyone else have this issue or know a solution?
Many thanks that does work. But it now leads to another question is this simply a trackpad issue and if so will it be fixed? I use Elements every day and was thinking I would have to go back to Mavericks.

I have a Macpro Book and I just downloaded new software to my ipod touch(3rd gen). Now it does not show up in itunes nor does it turn on. I believe it just downloaded the software and never updated it. What do I do?
You appear to have a second generation iPod touch, not a third, and those can't be updated past 4.2.1. Apple sold 8GB second generation models at the same time as the third generation ones.

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader. -
Creighton Univ.'s Blue line program does not support Firefox 7. Can I reload firefox 5?
I am an online student at Creighton U. It's Blue line program does not support Firefox 7. I cannot have this type of delay. Can I reload Firefox 5.
Firefox 4 and 5 (plus 6 & 7) aren't supported by Mozilla. Best bet is Firefox 3.6.25 which is still supported.

As of Monday 4/20, I've encountered a significant problem with Silverlight on my Vista PC.
Several weeks ago I read a brief item stating that Google would be dropping support for npapi and that it would affect Silverlight sometime in April. One of my key daily apps uses Silverlight, but I didn't receive notification from that software's author
about the pending change and how it would be handled. Successfully used the app every week (Mon-Fri) this month for 8-10 hrs/dy day (as I've been doing for the past ~5+ years: past year under Chrome, year before that under FireFox, ~3 prior years
under IE) and on Fri 4/17 shut it down for the weekend. When I booted up on Mon morning and tried to log into the key app however, it prompted me to download and install Silverlight, acting as though I never had it installed!
I recalled the earlier warning about Google dropping support, so I closed Chrome, started up FireFox, but got the same prompt from the app -- it directed me to install Silverlight. I downloaded it (had no choice as to which version, just got the "Silverlight_x64.exe"
file) and got part-way through the install when this error msg popped up: "Unable to Install Silverlight. Your operating system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight". WHAT?! Clicking on the "more info"
link led to this msg: "Message ID: 1518. Your operating system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight. Click here for the latest version of Silverlight." That link simply led back to the download page which resulted
in receiving another copy of the same executable file.
According to my system ( > Control Panel > System ), I'm running "Windows Vista Home Premium", with a "System Type: 64-bit Operating System". I've been using this same Vista PC since Sep 2008 and running Silverlight for
around the past 5 yrs.
? -- Why doe the Silverlight installer code flag my OS as not supported?
? -- Is there a way to get an older version of Silverlight that will run under Vista?
Thanks in advance for any helpful comments.Andy -- Thanks for the link, but I'm not adventurous enough to download from a non-MSFT site.
Besides, since I didn't make any changes to my hardware/software config, I expect a MSFT rep to explain why their two programs suddenly stopped working together and then provide whatever code fix is needed. A phone call to their tech support (predictably)
led to nowhere but a recommendation to purchase one of the company's support offerings (which I declined to pursue). The Silverlight development team appears to participate in these forums, so I'd hope one or more of them offers a realistic solution.
Here's something I forgot to mention in my original post: In several of the threads on this subject (some dating back to 2008!), people have
suggested running IE as the browser vs FireFox or Chrome; however, that idea fails to note that the error msg (Message ID:1518) clearly states that "your operating
system does not support the 64-bit version of Silverlight"; it doesn't say anything about
what browser you're using. -
Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Microsoft Word or Excel will not run on OS X Mavericks. What's up with that? Should I click accept or ok?
I assume this is the latest Mav OS...so the version would be 10.9.2? It was suppose to be a free download from Apple.If you do not want to spend a lot of money on buying the latest Office you can get most or all of what you need from LibreOffice which is free. http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/

I'll admit, I'm not good with computers but it seems that it should be simple to download illustrator without any problems. I don't know what operating system my mac is and apparently adobe doesn't have people to call for help so I'm trying to ask here.
Click on the Apple icon in the top left corner and choose "About this Mac" Doesn't change anything, though. Unless you update your OSX, the programs simply won't install. the warning really means what it says...

Is it true that 6.0 does not support Avast! anti-virus? What should I do?
I've been using Firefox for years. I downloaded 6.0 and I was advised that Avast! anti-virus is not available as an add-on, so I have no protection using Firefox. what should I do? I uninstalled the program for now, until I find out that it's safe for me to use.
Thank You.Delete the backup in Mac iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences > Devices > select your backup and tap Delete Backup... button.
After that right click on your iPhone under Devices and choose backup to create a new backup. -
Please advise an app that will allow me to be able to use my Ecard sites such as Hallmark and Jacbquie Lawson cards. It tells me I need an Adobe Flash that my apple iPad doesn't support. Is there any App I can use for this or some way around it so I can continue to send my Ecards from my iPad as I have already paid for these sites??

Hello Agnes w,
It sounds like you have two Apple ID’s and that is ok. Start with taking a look at the article below to go through and know how to use multiple Apple ID’s. You will need to make the decision to use one or the other if that is the case when it deals with your purchases. If you want to make the passwords the same, check out the second article to walk you through changing passwords on your Apple ID’s.

How do I download adobe flash 9.0? MY SAMSUNG GALAXY2 TAB SAYS IT DOES NOT SUPPORT FLASh 9
how do i get adobe flas 9.0 on my android tablet. message says my device does nit support it.
That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

I have a desktop computer and a laptop. I have installed Firefox 4 on both, but today I decided to install Aurora on the desktop computer and I plan on installing Nightly on my laptop. My plan is to use the newer versions as my default browsers and resort to Firefox 4 if a site isn't working. I have Sync set up to sync everything across the two computers.
I have read on multiple websites that since each version uses the same profile, very bad things could happen to that profile if you use different versions on the same machine.
Is this true for my situation? Would my bookmarks or passwords or anything be lost or damaged? Will Sync sync my information to all of the different versions?
For example, is it ok to run Nightly on my laptop and Aurora on my desktop and use Firefox 4 when needed and have Sync sync my passwords and other information?
I hope this makes sense. Thank you for your help!Thank you cor-el for those links! I have decided that I do not want to run Nightly anymore after reading that it could destroy my profile information or crash my computer.
Honestly, do you think Aurora will cause any damage to my profile if I use it with my day-to-day profile that contains all of my important information? Keep in mind I would be using Aurora on both computers that are set up to synchronize and then using Firefox 4 if ever needed. I've been running the betas for Firefox 4 and also using 3.6 when needed with my normal profile and there was never any corruption, so why would that happen with Aurora? Wouldn't Mozilla warn us? I do not want to set Aurora up to use a different profile. If that is dangerous, I will uninstall it and just use betas and final releases across my machines. But I would love to test the newest features and provide suggestions for improvement, but I need to use my same profile.
What do you suggest I do?
Thank you! -
Thought as a free app, but found out that i have to pay after downloading...
Hello,
i downloaded bald booth from app store thinking that it was free, but got an email that i have to pay for them. Is there any solution to this problem?It sounds like the app itself is free, but you made some sort of in-app purchase.
There are many apps that work that way. Prime examples are newspaper apps. In the newspaper app case, the app is often free but doesn't really do anything unless you then subscribe to the newspaper (which is not free). -

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://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]

* [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ AdwCleaner: (for adware)]
* [http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan Kaspersky Free security scan]
You need to use multiple and up-to-date tools as they will not all pick up the same things.
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good FREE permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
