I'm not nearly ready to buy a new computer. How can I keep using Firefox 16?

Hi,
I have an I-MAC 10.5.8 and am not about to purchase a new computer anytime soon. How can I keep using Firefox 16?

You asked,
Is Firefox 16 still secure for me to use?
Right now Firefox 16 has the latest security fixes but it won't get future fixes. ''[https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2012/10/04/we-bid-you-adieu-spotted-cat/ On November 20th, Firefox will end support for users operating Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). After this date, users will stop receiving Firefox updates, including new features and security fixes.]''
When will Firefox 17 be launched?
November 20th, [https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar according to the release calendar].
And if I upgrade my Mac to Lion software (which I'm planning to do, but not immediately), will that work?
Yes. The [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/17.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 17 system requirements] listed for Mac include OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), OS X 10.7 (Lion) and OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
More information:<br>
Here is a list of security vulnerabilities fixed in released versions of Firefox, for reference (you can check this page when Firefox 17 is released):

Buying a new iPod,,how can I transfer all my songs over?

My 30gb iPod which I've had since May of 2006 sad to say may be on it's last legs. It did not make it through my morning workout today, crapped out at the 15 minute mark. I think it was fully charged, the battery indicator showed a full charge when I started my workout, but it died right around the 15 minute mark of my workout.
So if I buy a new iPod, how do I get all my songs on it. I have over 5000 songs on iTunes (they're all backed up on my external hard drive too) and I just need to know what I would have to do to use a new iPod and upload my entire iTunes library.

Hello blackhawks2488,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
If all your music is located in your iTunes library, all you have to do is simply plug the iPod in, register it, set it up sync however you wish, actually sync it and be on your way.
There is no limit to the number of devices you can have synced with one iTunes library or account.

I have an iMac running version OS 10.6.8. I bought the desktop in               2009. Short of buying a new iMac, how can I upgrade to Lion?

I have an iMac running OS 10.6.8. I bought the iMac in 2009. Short of buying a new iMac, is there any other way to upgrade to Lion? Thanks.

I don't believe anything prevents you from upgrading to Lion or Mountain Lion. See:
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

Now that my Mac OSX v10.5 is not supported by Firefox, and I'm not ready to buy a new computer, what are my options?

I'm wondering if I can, or should, upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion????? Or, should I switch to Safari? There is not much stored on my computer except for usually about 500 pictures.

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space

I started using icloud a few months ago- I now find I have music on my iphone that my daughter purchased last year- I can't get it off as it does not appear on my Library on my pc. Any ideas- other than banning daughter from my account!

Add all the songs you want to burn the playlist onto the disk.
Best Regards, Brandon.

I will buy a new iphone, how can I upload the previously purchased apps?

I hope, you can help me!

once you connect the new iPhone, iTunes should ask you if you want to restore the backup of your old one. you can also redownload your purchased app over and over free of charge: How to redownload purchased apps from the App Store

Had to buy a new computer and not able to download my ITunes purchases

I had to buy a new computer and I am not able to download my old purchases. I didnt back up my purchases on my old laptop. What can I do to download my old purchases? Thank you

+I didnt back up my purchases on my old laptop.+
Woops, big mistake not backing up, since you only get ONE download from the store; no more downloads will be coming to your new PC.
Do you at least have your purchases on an ipod? You could authroize the new PC, then do itunes menu > file > transfer purchases from ipod.

I received LR 5 for Christmas but have not downloaded it yet on my computer. I have had LR 3 for about 4 years. I am due to buy a new computer soon but need to know how many licenses/downloads I will get before downloading LR 5 on my current computer. I may also purchase a laptop in the next year so that would require 3 licenses altogether (current iMac, future iMac, future macbook).

You have one license.
You can download and install it on an infinite number of computers, as long as it is only installed on two of your computers at any one time, and in use on only one computer at any given time.
So in your case, current iMac, that's would mean its installed on one computer, no problem. Future iMac and future MacBook ... so if you uninstall from current iMac and install on Future iMac and future MacBook, it's now installed on two computers at a time, no problem, as long as you're not using Lightroom on both simultaneously. And if after that, you got two new computers and uninstalled Lightroom from the previous two, you're still good, it's only installed on two computers at any one time.

There is no free version of CS2. There is only a special version of CS2 available for people who purchased it and need to reinstall it.

After much consideration, today I decided to join Adobe Photoshop CC only to discover it is not available to me as my laptop has Windows Vista. What are my options other than having to buy a new computer or an old version like Ps5 or 6?

1-Do some more reading about a Windows "upgrade version" which, according to my experience, does NOT require you to format your drive... it upgrades over what you have, without disturbing installed programs... at least that is what happened the ONE time I installed an upgrade version, so I can't give a 100% assurance it will work that way with your computer... search link for all things Microsoft http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
2-Depending on the hardware you have, you may not be able to run CC programs well, if at all
3-CS6 is 3+ years old and is the ONLY non-CC version still being sold... unless you can find a "legal" CS5 somewhere
