Need help with the latest version of Firefox

I asked this question before, but the answer I got was way too complicated. I keep being asked to upgrade to Firefox 29, and when I do go to do this I get the message "You are on the latest version of Firefox", even though I am on Firefox 24. Please tell me in simple language how to fix this.

Hi Ruben,
I'm sorry my answer wasn't easy to understand. I'll try to simplify it.
There are two reasons why your Firefox is incorrectly reading the useragent (the Firefox version you're on)
1) <code>about:config</code> (hidden website in Firefox) still has the preferences for an old version. There's only one thing to do for this step, Visit the below website and tell me what it says under Browser "User Agent" string:. Here's the site:
*https://jeffersonscher.com/res/jstest.php (credit goes to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/204 jscher2000])
Example: here's what mine looks like:
*Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0
If yours isn't 29 at the end you should do the below steps to reset your prefs to default
# Navigate to <code>about:config</code> via Address Bar
# Click the button that says, <code>"I'll be careful, I promse!"</code>
# At the top of this page, search for <code>general.useragent</code>
# Try to reset the following if they exist (If prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose Reset.):
* general.useragent.extra.firefox
*general.useragent.extra.productName - where productName can be the name of some third party software (e.g. microsoftdotnet),
*general.useragent.locale
*general.useragent.override
*general.useragent.security
The other thing was to see if you had any user.js file active to initalize prefs when you start Firefox
You can delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and delete the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value. You can get to the profile folder below:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Show Folder
or
*Go to '''about:support''' and click Show Folder next to Profile Directory.

Need help finding the best Mac for gf

hi I need help finding the best desktop. I am looking to buy MAC for gf.
she uses final cut program question is does the GB/RAM/STORAGE matter on performance?
She has a 2009 Apple computer I want to upgrade her to a new one
I Dont know much when it comes to specs. She edits tons of videos and pictures.
what's recommended for a video/photo editor that's good in performance ?

Pro consumer might go with iMac even.
Final Cut Pro latest benefits from dual AMD graphics.
Video is one animal, graphics a much different.
Great site full of performance, buying and configuration ideas:
MacPerformance Go to the main topics
I think you need to get clear on budgets. start with mid range and add all the options and can spend $4,000 or $7,000.
Go to the Mac Store and do some looking and Google for reviews of software, hardware of course.
Barefeats
Rumors Pro
Visit the forum for FCP-X would be a place to start.

Need help finding the right codec to play QT files

Like many others who have posted, all the quicktime files on my drive have turned to black. Previously when I opened the file, I saw picture and sound. Now every single file has only audio, but the picture is black.
I am operation on Mac O.S. 10.4.11. I am using Quicktime Pro 7.5. I have been trying to fix this problem for a month now. Many people have suggested I need to find the right codec, but so far I have not found it. I have tried: A52codec.component, AC3codec, MacOS 8.x, 9.1.x, Apple Intermediate Codec.com, Apple MPEG2.codec.component, Avilmporter-r7.component, DivX Decoder.component, DivX Encoder.component, DivX Pro 6.8.0.19 + keymaker, EnsharpEncoderMacOsX.cmg, Fbx 20091quicktime_macemu.pkg.tar, Fbx QT.pkg, Flipsformac, WMV Advanced.component, Flipsformac WMV Advanced Exports.component, Flipsformac WMV Import.component, IMXCodec.component, LAAME Universal Installer.mpkg, LAAMEncoder.component, QSSP_2.1.dmg, QSXEssentials.component, QSXEssentials.dmg, QTFvx.component, Red Quicktime Codec v3.1.pkg, Red Code iedcod.qt.component, Spectrograph.component, TSCC.component xiphqt.component, XviD_codec-r58.component, XviDELEGATE.component
Nothing worked!
I also tried to install Perian. This did not work.
What should I do? Should I re-install my operating system and start over? About a month ago, all the video clips played just fine. Is there any solution?
Thanks

Hi Wangerer!
I haven't even heard of half of those! You may have reached overkill on codecs!
Get rid of some of them and read this:
These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, 3.1, 3.1.1, QT 7.3, 7.4.x and 7.5 and OS 10.4.11.
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.11 and have Quicktime 7.4 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 11 (which is no longer in beta) for Mac from:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2
and then the latest version obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
and installed.
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS, but please see my footnote if you are running Leopard.)
In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to and including 2008-004. (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
And now there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash should be. You can read more about it here:
http://silverlight.net/
So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards):
http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
FOOTNOTE
If you are running Leopard:
Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1

Help finding the OS version

Hi, I have a imac G3 (M5521) that I got from a school I work for. Unfortunately I don't know the password at startup. I'm trying to get my hands on a install disc to reset the password but my question is how do I get the right disc version if I can't get past the password/login? I know it is says OS X at startup but thats it. Is there another way to find the OS version without the password? Or can I use any OS X install disc to reset the password?

M5521 sound like it is a slot-loader iMac G3 (optical discs go into a slot). If that is the case, there is one additional consideration. If may have a CDROM drive, CDRW drive, or DVDROM drive. The retail Tiger (10.4) installation disc is usually a DVD and would not be readable if the optical drive is CDROM or CDRW. The retail Panther (10.3) installation disc (set of three) is always on CDROM, so it would work in any case.
I don't know if you can reset the password using the installation disc, if the OS version is not the same. But it will definitely not work if the iMac cannot read the disc.
You may get information about the OS version if you startup in +verbose mode+.

Do I need to remove the older version of firefox before installing a new version? If so, then how much do I remove, and how?

I have an older version of Firefox and adobe on a Sony VAIO. I keep getting pop-ups telling me to upgrade, and also frequent failures when I try to use the browser. I try to upgrade. I go thru the download step, then try the run step and get a message "not allowed". I have checked and I have admin privileges, and I've turned off the firewall security software thinking that it's blocking the install, but nothing works. Does anyone know if the older software is causing this and does it need to be removed before the latest version can go on. Also, if this problem is resolved am I going to have the same problem with Adobe?

What Firefox version is currently installed on the computer?
You can find the full version of the current current Firefox release (37.0.2) in all languages and all operating systems here:
*https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If you have a very old Firefox version then you could consider to uninstall that version to clean up existing registry keys (especial the uninstall key).
Make sure NOT to remove "personal data" when you uninstall Firefox, because that will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Check the Firefox program folder and remove the Firefox program folder if there are still files left in it.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
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.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

I accidentally downloaded the latested version of firefox to my outdated Mac 10.3.9 and lost the older version of firefox. I need to get the older version of firefox back?

firefox won't open on my computer as it says that it might be damaged. I downloaded the latest version of firefox and realized after the fact that the latest version is only compatible to mac 10.4 or higher. My computer is only 10.3.9 so it seems that it's too old. I tried downloading an older version from your website and it failed. Please help. I hope I don't have to go out and purchase a new computer!!

I need to reinstall the older version of Firefox since 4 doesn't work with my laptop - where is it?

I updated to 4 but now it won't open. The install replaced my older version of Firefox. I can't figure out how to uninstall 4; and will that make my older version available again? If not, is it available for download on the Mozilla website?

There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

I find the current version of Firefox extremely difficult to use. Can I use a lower level version of Firefox??

I find it extremely difficult using the current version of Firefox. Navigating through open pages is cumbersome and at times, closing tabs is not possible. I have to close Firefox and restart. I would like to download an older version of Firefox. Is this possible?? If not, I will go elsewhere.
Regards,
Jerry

How are you trying to close tabs when that happens?
Does it work if you middle click a tab?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
If you want to restore the old appearance then you can right click the orange Firefox button to open the toolbar context menu or use (F10) View > Toolbars.
* Click the Menu Bar entry and place a check-mark to make the Menu Bar visible all the time.
* Click "Tabs on Top" to remove the check mark and place the Tab Bar at its original position just above the browser window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/why-are-tabs-top
You can use this extension to get the Status Bar back:
* Status-4-Evar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
More tips here:
* http://www.computertechtips.net/64/make-firefox-4-look-like-ff-3-6/
The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:
* Backward Forward History Dropdown: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/

Need help finding the desktop applc of Adobe Reader for Palm OS

Thanks for your replies guys
WN, thanks for the suggestion. I had just tried it actually. And it's a great alternative. But after using the other one, I can't help but notice how slow it is in my Palm TX. I think I would prefer to get the benefit of compressing/converting the files to PDBs. But no one seems to know where to get that application. I checked in my TX CD and I didn't find it.
If your TX installation CD does not "auto-run" and present you with a menu to install additional software (including Adobe Reader for Palm), you can find it on the disc using Windows Explorer at:
Palm CD > Int_English > Essential_software > Adobe Reader for Palm
In that folder is the installation (.exe) file which you run on your desktop. It installs the desktop app, and the .prc file gets installed to the quick installer during the process.
FYI...this software is slow and clunky on the handheld. The conversion process is imperfect, and particularly with files which I have produced myself using Acrobat Distiller (the part of Adobe Acrobat which lets you "print" to the distiller to create a .pdf file from anything), it sometimes doesn't even work.
The best .pdf viewer I have used on my handhelds is actually the upgraded version of Documents To Go, which handles native .pdf files pretty well. No conversion needed, just drop the files into your SD card, or Hotsync with Documents To Go desktop.

I need help finding the best Creative MP3 player for

I've been searching through the product literature and not finding the information I need to make my decision. I'm hoping the people here might be able to help.
I need one that does MOST if not all of the following:
) Audible audio book support.
This is mandatory since 75% of my usage is books on the commute. If the player will have support "soon" as in the next month, then that is OK. I can limp along with my current player.
2) Bookmarks.
Since I mostly listen to books I need to be able to resume play at any point. It would be great if the player supported a bookmark per file, but I could handle one that only remembered the current position.
3) In-Car use.
By this I mean that it can receive power from a car adapter and will auto shut off and remember the playing position when the power is turned off. I was thinking of using a USB power adapter for the MuVo Tx FM, but I don't know if it will actually play when powered that way. I dri've 2hrs a day and that eats batteries too fast to not use the car power.
Thanks for the help =)

Altair,
The Zen Xtra is the player you want. It currently has all three of the features you want available.
) It supports Audible with the latest firmware.
2) It has a bookmark feature that lets you set multiple bookmarks and recall the position.
3) It has a car mode that makes it shutdown when you turn off your car (assuming that your car outlet turns off when the keys are removed) and restart at where it was when you turn the car back on.

Need help finding Ideal MP3 Player for my company to give as xmas gifts to our clients

The company I work for is planning on giving away 50 Mp3 players to large clients--primarily because we started our own podcast site with daily Metals Updates ( investment company). http://podcasts.gbtg.net/ I picked up 2 Creative Labs Nano players, and found the setup was lengthy, and far from foolproof--if you are not very careful, the Nano would fail to be able to play the wma podcasts you push in from your PC. Worse still, I can not find a way to easily show cleints how to do an auto synch type of function, so the they can just plug the Nano into their PC at night, and yank it out the next day with the newly updated podcast in it...it would also be nice to delete podcasts older than 3 days or so.... Tech support suggested I try the sniffer function, which of course I had already activated---there was no discussion of how to use this functionally for podcasts. Does anyone have suggestions in Mp3 players better suited for this purpose, or for better software than the Windows Media Player or the Creative Media software they provide? Thanks, Dan

Thanks for the reply. The 2 units I picked up are Zen Nano's. While I understand they are supposed to function much like external hard dri'ves, and that is a simple matter to just drag files from the PC to the Nano "dri've", when I did that, the wma files ( the podcasts) would show in the Nano lcd, but they would not play. However, after installing all of the software ( both Creative with sniffer, and the Nano Explorer) the Nano player began magically playing the podcasts.... I had the same experience of two separate PC's, with 2 separate Nano's. I don't really know what specifically made the Nano's play the wma files--if it was the Nano Explorer , if there was some driver that loads when you get the Nano Explorer.... I don't think it was the larger Creative MediaSource software with sniffer---on one of the Nano's I purposely did not load the Nano Explorer initially, and when using the Creative Media source to push the files over, it still failed to play within the Nano. You could easily play the files from the nano, on the PC through windows media player--as if they were on a firewire or USB dri've. But the Nano needs to be able to play the files itself away from the computer. Maybe the nano explorer helped--maybe their was some auto loaded codec that finally arri'ved with the time online... I have no idea.
That's strange. Are the WMA files licensed? If they are you have to copy them with MediaSource or Windows Media Player.
Back to the media sniffer....What I need is relati'vely simple instructions I can send to my clients ( a largely novice computer user base, with essentially zero exposure to MP3 players...they are investors, not generation X'ers :-) The podcasting concept appeals to all of them, but I need to make it very simple to pull the MP3 player out of its Xmas box, plug it into the PC, and have it auto update. We can pre-configure each MP3 Player we send out--if there is a brand where this would help. With the Nano the hardware does not have any pre-config settings that will help. So I'm back to looking for a software ona CD that will install simply and make this auto podcast download a reasonable function for these clients to be able to handle. Making them choose folders, set the folders as a library, then set the deletion dates for old files, and the synchronization behavior in general is too much work for people who have never done any of this. Once they experience the podcasts for a few days or weeks, they will be incentivised to learn "advanced" configuration proceedures---but I don't want this to begin this way.
Really all you have to do is enable the Media Sniffer, and if the files already go into the default directory then nothing else.
Then you would also need to sync the player with the PC, which is essentially just following the syncing process.
