I want to install and try out FF8 while keeping FF3.6

I have tried this with earlier updates of FF but got into a real mess because my one extension (OpenBook) didn't work with the update, so I tried to go back to the previous version of FF and had to go to a lot of trouble trying to get OpenBook to work again with the previous version (I use OpenBook to get a larger-than-standard bookmark list window when I select "bookmark this page").
So, can I install FF8 and give it a try while retaining FF3.6 so that if I don't like FF8 I can simply trash it and get back to my tried and trusty (and hopefully unchanged) 3.6?

Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version.
Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.

Hi,
can you be more explicit about the problem. The information you provide is not very helpful to identify the issue.

I cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Comma

i cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command-
I tries and it doesnt work!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

TD

I can not open iPhoto. this is the messageShut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command ki get.

Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

I want to install and use MFirefox Portable. Do i absolutely need to install Mozilla Firefox on my pc to run/use MozFireFoxPortable ?

Do i absolutely need to install Mozilla Firefox on my pc to run/use MozFireFoxPortable ?
i've been trying to use MFFPortable for several days and am as confused as hell whether i'm in FF or FFPortable
FFPortable says their product is sooooooooo easy to install; they don't say it is easy to use with confidence
can i just install FFPortable on an external (thumb) drive as seems to be its intention and purpose for security reasons without any parts of MozFireFox on the computer hard drive ?
thnx, john

You can copy the contents of your regular Firefox profile into your Firefox Portable profile folder. This way you'll have all your regular data like bookmarks, saved passwords, cookies, and so on.

If you still want to export and import bookmarks manually, see

You launch Firefox Portable, you type something into the address bar and press Enter, and your local version of Firefox starts? If so, that simply shouldn't happen, and I can't imagine why it does. I suggest you continue the conversation that you started over on the Firefox Portable support forum:

I want to install and extension globally

I am an it admin and want to install an extension globally, but placing the .xpi file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\browser\extensions\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\plugins and restarting the browser does not prompt to install the plugin. I noticed that the cli tags have been depreciated so i did not give that a shot. The computers are windows 7 64 bit and firefox version is 35.

See:

*http://mike.kaply.com/2013/02/11/add-ons-in-the-distribution-directory/
Did you rename the xpi file to the ID ({id}.xpi or email.xpi) as defined via the install.rdf file?

Can I try out FF4 while continuing to use FF3?

I look at the forum and see all sorts of problems being talked about when people make the switch from FF3 to FF4, and I don't want the aggravation. So I'd like to try out FF4 and work my way into it while still being able to use FF3 which I know works well and doesn't give me any hassles.
I'm afraid that if I install FF4 then I'll no longer be able to use FF3 and I will have to fiddle with FF4 for days and days to get it to work properly, and during that switch-over period I won't be able to access the internet as easily as I can now with FF3, and will lose valuable time and get frustrated and wish I hadn't made the switch in the first place. I've had that problem in the past when upgrading an earlier version of FF and it was very frustrating indeed.
So to put the question again, can I install FF4, but be able to continue using FF3 while getting FF4 configured and fine-tuned with all the features, layout etc. that I want (a process which, in my experience, always takes more time than one would have thought)?

@ ocertain I lasted about a month with the FF4 & tonight I couldn't take it any longer I went back to FF 3.6.16.. Prior to making the change back I did take some of supports suggestions to make 4 look like 3 but they were just bandages on a cut to try & stop the bleeding in the end the cut was still there..
I found that FF4 was like having IE & if I wanted to use IE I would have.. I don't know who designed FF4 but if you're going to upgrade something you have to remember the operative word is 'upgrade' so making it worse was the wrong direction..
As a former systems analyst I found FF4 a disaster in response & in visual appearance, so I wonder how many end users were in the testing group for this product & how much negative testing they did before they released it ?
They can send me an alert when the soup is cooked & ready to eat until then I will stay with FF3..

Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again. While using FaceTime

While using my iPad air trying to connect to FaceTime, I type in my Apple ID and password then get this message. Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again. Have checked network connection and have internet. Help!

Some basic troubleshooting steps for FaceTime activation.....
Check Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is also correct.
Try restarting or resetting your iPad and then try activating again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

In outlook, when I try and open a link, chrome wants to install and it won't open in modzilla

I loaded the new version of Outlook and when I get an email with a link attached, when I click to open.. I get a screen to install Chrome.. How do I get rid of that and let Firefox open the link.

I think I'm missing some information here. Is this on your email site using the regular address book? The specifics of how it works and what might have changed in Firefox probably depends on which site it is (e.g., Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail).
If you think the problem might be that Firefox is automatically filling in the form in a way that the site doesn't connect to your address book, you can remove saved form entries or completely disable that feature. This article has the details: [[Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms with your information]].
Does that help?

How can I stop Firefox from asking me over and over (even on pages with no flash content) to install Flash? I don't want Flash installed and this stupid pop-up.

So even when I load up websites (like ones we here at my job have created) with very simple HTML and absolutely nothing Flash related, I still get a pop-up asking me to install flash (pops down from the URL bar at left.) How can I stop this without disabling all plug-in updates?
Moreover, why in the name of all that's good is it asking me about Flash when I have no pages open with anything remotely Flash like on them?
Thanks to anyone who can answer.

I do not see why this should happen because of Firefox. Maybe you have some sort of adware on your system.
Please attach a screenshot of the popup
* [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Try Firefoxin safe mode to rule out your standard extensions. if that does not solve the problem then scan for malware with multiple and up-to-date tools.
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.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.
