I use firefox 3.6.1 on a mac os 10.5.8. What is the difference between this and firefox 6?

As I mentioned, I am running 3.6.1 and am when I go to the firefox website I get the message that I am using an old version and am asked to update to the latest which appears to be 6.0. Is this an update to 3.6.1? When researching on the web, I see that 6 is an update to version 5. So, is the update for me or is it a different version altogether?
Thanks

Yes, 6.0 is an update for 3.6.1. The 3.6.x versions were followed by 4.0 in March 2011, then 5.0 in June which was an update for 4.0, and 6.0 an update for 5.0 in August.
Mozilla moved Firefox to a fast release system this past spring, quicker releases with fewer changes per release. Instead of users having to wait for a new feature to be added in 10 to 14 months under the old release system, a new feature is added to a release like 12 weeks after the new feature is deemed to be complete and ready for release.

  • What's the difference between Mozilla and Firefox

    what's the difference between MOZILLA and FIREFOX?

    Firefox doesn't include the SeaMonkey suite.<br />
    SeaMonkey is a separate program (not just a browser, but a suite) maintained outside the Mozilla Corporation.
    From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeaMonkey
    <blockquote>SeaMonkey is a free and open source[3] cross-platform Internet suite.<br />
    It is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite, based on the same source code.<br />
    <br />
    The development of SeaMonkey is community-driven, in contrast to the Mozilla Application Suite, which until its last released version (1.7.13) was governed by the Mozilla Foundation. The new project-leading group is the SeaMonkey Council.

  • What is the difference between aurora and firefox browsers?

    What is the difference between Firefox 9 and Aurora? Which one performs better?

    The Aurora builds are for testing code for future Firefox version. The Nightly builds (currently Firefox 12) always get the latest changes and patches first and such changes bubble down to other Firefox versions with a delay of about six weeks, first to the Aurora channel (currently Firefox 11) and then another 6 weeks later to the Beta channel (currently Firefox 10) that then gets the next release (Beta goes to release at the end of January). Normal users should always stay on the release channel.

  • What's the difference between keep cookies until I close firefox and clear cookie history when firefox closes?

    In the settings for Firefox 33.0 (I am using Ubuntu 14.04 but the functionality is the same for Windows 7) there are two different ways to delete cookies when firefox closes. Or at least there seems to be.
    First is the keep cookies until firefox closes
    Second is to check the box to clear history when firefox closes and in the settings check cookies.
    What is the difference between these two options?
    I usually have both setup but I was noticing that a login was not saving for td canada trust easyweb, even though I have an exception set for it. Now I unchecked to delete cookies when clearing the history on close and the login saves correctly.
    This login saves 7 cookes under easyweb.td.com and 10 cookies under td.com and I have exceptions set for both. If I clear history on close and include cookies, half of the td.com cookies are gone when I close firefox and re-open. The same is true if I don't set the exception.
    So currently I cannot figure out a way to keep all the cookies if I clear cookie history when firefox closes. What is the difference when this is enabled?

    Let all cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
    Create a cookie 'allow' exception for cookies that you would like to keep.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
    Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings

  • What's the difference between using a connection pool and a datasource

    Howdy. I figure this is a newbie question, but I can't seem to find an
    answer.
    In the docs at bea, the datasource docs say
    "DataSource objects provide a way for JDBC clients to obtain a DBMS
    connection. A DataSource is an interface between the client program and the
    connection pool. Each data source requires a separate DataSource object,
    which may be implemented as a DataSource class that supports either
    connection pooling or distributed transactions."
    In there it says the datasource uses the connection pool, but other than
    that, what is the difference between a connection pool and a datasource?

    Thanks for the info. I think it makes some sense. But it's a bit greek.
    I'm sure it'll make more sense the more I work with it. Thanks.

    Peter,
    Here is a more formal definition of a DataSource from the Sun site
    "A factory for connections to the physical data source that thisDataSource object
    represents. An alternative to the DriverManager facility, a DataSourceobject
    is the preferred means of getting a connection. An object that implementsthe
    DataSource interface will typically be registered with a naming servicebased
    on the JavaTM Naming and Directory (JNDI) API.
    The DataSource interface is implemented by a driver vendor. There arethree types
    of implementations:
    Basic implementation -- produces a standard Connection object
    Connection pooling implementation -- produces a Connection object thatwill automatically
    participate in connection pooling. This implementation works with amiddle-tier
    connection pooling manager.
    Distributed transaction implementation -- produces a Connection objectthat may
    be used for distributed transactions and almost always participates inconnection
    pooling. This implementation works with a middle-tier transaction managerand
    almost always with a connection pooling manager.
    Does that help clarify the distinction?

  • Query: how to use structure and selection and what's the difference between

    Query: how to use structure and selection and what's the difference between these two?
    Would be appreciated if some experts here give examples to demenstrate on how to use structure and selection in query and what's the difference between these two?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Kevin,
    1. Well by default all the KF that you include in your query go into a Key Figure Structure. You can additionally have another structure for defining how your chars are laid out. A common example is a Calmonth structure where you have selections for 12 months, quarers and YTD values. This would be a char structure with different selections (for each month, qtr etc)
    2. Yes, a selection with a KF is the same as restricting a KF. You can use am RKF is you have one on the left hand side, or if you need to do this locally in the query, right click the structure and choose New Selection, then proceed to choose your KF and reqd char values.
    Hope this helps...

  • What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?*

    What is the difference between saving to "Documents" and "Macintosh HD" and when should you use each one?

    When you save to the folder with the little house icon, the file is placed at
    /Users/your_user_name/
    You would really have to go out of my way to save at:
    (the shortcut for the Boot Drive, regardless of its name).
    I am not sure how you decided that Time Machine is not saving your files. The default is for Time Machine to do incremental Backups of everything on all attached drives, except for certain temporary information in Cache files. If you have four Users, Time Machine will back them all up.
    Looking at the raw Time Machine backups will tell you very little, because it does lots of its work with Hard Links, and because it does incremental backups, so only files that changed since the last Backup are saved at thet cycle. The way to determine whether Time Machine is saving things is to display the window you care about in the Finder, then invoke the "Star wars"/ "Back, back, back in time" Interface.
