I keep upgrading Firefox and yet it keeps telling me I haven't got the latest version which is very irritating.
For about 2 months now I keep getting the message that I am running an old version of Firefox. When I then use the free download, the message appears again. Frustrating! Also in the last week the icon slips away from the Dock into the Application file and so if I want to get onto the internet I have to open the Apps file and drag the Firefox icon into the dock. Also frustrating
this is way too annoying. i have never been successful in downloading a new version. mozilla used to be for those of us who were not tech savvy. the "solutions" are complicated and time consuming. i have things i need to use a browser for and do not wish to have to do your software engineers job. bye mozilla. i remember when you were the best. i can't beleive i'm saying this, but internet explorer is much less complicated.

If you home page is google.com/firefox that page is wrong. Change your home page to about:home or some other page.
You are running the latest version -

After a tryout with AdBlock, the videos on Facebook, on BBC and on some others websites stopped working and there's always a message asking me to install the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player. Even though it's already installed the situation remains the same since the last month.
Can I fix that just doing the upgrade for the Yosemite?Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
Thanks fore responding to my question.

I get this error message: Something is preventing Firefox from updating securely. Please make sure that you have the latest version of Firefox. I have uninstalled and re-installed. It did not work. Support tells me to click on Firefox at the top. I have no word at the top which says Firefox. I have the Firefox icon.
This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
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.

I have just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and want to update my Safari 4.0.4 to the latest version. However, the latest Safari version needs at least Snow Leopard 10.6.8. What can I do, please?
Go to the Apple Icon, Top Left of your Screen and Run Software Update...
Or go here > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
and download and Install the 10 6 8 Combo Update...
Be sure to Restart your Mac after the Install. -
I downloaded Yosemite and now my iPhoto has a bar across it and will not open. I need to update to the latest version. The app store says the latest version is not available in the Canadian Store. What can I do.
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always. -
I deleted the latest version of Firefox 3.6 in order to try to download Firefox version 4.0. The download of version 4.0 was unsuccessful, probably because I have an old iBook G4 (10.4.11). How can I reinstall/download the most recent version of Firefox 3.6?
For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

You can get Firefox 3.6.16 here: <br />

"We're a non-profit organization that believes the Web should be open, accessible, transparent, safe and—most of all—a force for the good of humanity.
... And we depend on support and collaboration from people like you." SO YOU SAY BUT... I had firefox 3.6 working fine. got a message to update... updated and replaced existing firefox with new version and blow me down... NOW it tells me my system can't operate it. Well thanks a million, you caring people... I now have no browser and guess what.... part of the greedy corporate 'upgrading' constantly so that we have to keep on forking out more money for your so-called "free' download. Just who are yopu making the internet accessible to? just the few rich who can afford to continuously up[grade. The old version Firefox 3.6 was working just fine and I want it back. But oh no... I can't have it! and guess what all the other browsers also want upgraded systems.
I thought Firefox was different but it is not! It's just another money grabbing part of the system. If you don't think so then tell me how I can get a firefox browser without having to shell out more money!In order to downgrade to version 3.6 of Firefox, please follow the steps mentioned here:
[[Install an older version of Firefox#w_i-still-want-to-downgrade-ae-where-can-i-get-the-previous-version|I still want to downgrade — where can I get the previous version?]].
Also see
[[Update Firefox to the latest version#w_how-do-i-configure-update-32optionssf33preferencessf|How do I configure update options/preferences?]] in order to disable the automatic update or follow these step-by-step instructions:
In the Firefox window, click the ''Firefox'' button at the top, then select the Options menu item.
#If no Firefox button is shown, click the Tools menu at the top of the menu bar, then select ''Options''.
#From the Options window, click the ''Advanced'' panel.
#In the Advanced panel, click the ''Update'' tab.
#Under ''Firefox updates'', select ''Never check for updates''.
#Now click the ''OK'' button to apply the changes.

The forward, back, refresh, and stop buttons are not working. Even after installing the latest Firefox update. Also my home page stopped loading upon startup even tho I have it setup to do so. Anyone else experiencing these issues? This is my second request for help and of course, Firefox on-line support is always closed.
Those are all symptoms of a problem with the places.sqlite file, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite

Please help me to upgrade latest iTunes version so then I can upgrade to iOS 5 or 6. I have an iPad 2. Thank you.
You need to update iTunes on your computer (not the iPad) to the latest version in order to then update the iPad to iOS 5.1.1 (iOS 6 isn't released until the Autumn) - you can check if you are up-to-date (which will prompt you to update if you aren't) via, on a PC, 'Help > Check For Updates', and on a Mac 'iTunes > Check For Updates'
When you have that installed, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (you may also want to copy photos off the iPad as well) and then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'. You may also want to copy off the iPad any important documents, notes, files etc e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case.
You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

When I try to open a pdf file, FF4 says I need the latest version of Quicktime. The site it directs me to for the latest version is actually an old version of Quicktime (7.something). I am running the most recent version (Quicktime 10.0).

'''bold text'''
I tentatively think I have the solution; this is for when the session id value 'thing', in about:config, referred to in other answers is already on the default/rest state.
I am assuming, I don't what to imply certainty in-case there is a value wrong in our browsers, that the problem stems from the fact that our homepage is no longer the default for Firefox.
So, go to 'Options'>'General' and delete the homepage. This will reset it to the new address, which is 'about:home'.
I hope this helps some people.
