If FireFox 8.0.1 has been released, why does my computer say it is up to date when I click on Help About FireFox?

I am wondering why my computer says it is up to date. I have FireFox 8.0 loaded and my son just went from 7.0 to 8.0.1 and cant bring up his browser. Yet, when I go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
8.0.1 will be loaded. 11/23/2011

Current Firefox 8 installations on Windows OS's aren't getting the 8.0.1. Windows users with older versions of Firefox are getting the 8.0.1 update.
If you are having a problem with Firefox 8.0 crashing, install the 8.0.1 version; otherwise, if you aren't having a crashing problem don't install the updated version.

    Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
    you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

    If you previous synced to the computer then you may be able to recovery use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:
    Disabled Recovery-must use syncing computer.
    Otherwise y have to erase the iPod
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • I love Firefox, but recently it has been crashing multiple times per day (sometimes 20 or more). I've checked the web help, and can't resolve. Please help.

    I have Windows 7 and Firefox 7.0.1, and those two combined have caused a crashing epidemic. I do not have many add-ons installed, and the ones I do have are all updated. I also did not see the crashing coincide with a recent download or install. I've checked all the online help, and nothing has provided resolution. If someone could assist that would be great. I do not want to be forced in to using another browser.

    Here are the crash report links. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks for your help!<br />

  • Why does my computer say that the software update has been tampered with and cannot download?

    I recently wiped my computer's hard drive and was updating my software when it told me that. What does it mean? Is there anyway to bypass it?

    Which exact SW or update is this, & do you have a link?

  • I am getting an alert in my Antivirus for Buffer Overflow whenever I launch or close my Firefox Browser. This has been happening I upgraded to the latest FF

    I am getting an alert in my Antivirus for Buffer Overflow whenever I launch or close my Firefox Browser. This has been happening since I upgraded to the Firefox 15. I didn't have this problem before. I having been using Firefox since many years & never faced such an issue. But this new issue has saddened me. Also whenever I close my Firefox browser the process is not getting ended in the Task Manager. When I try to launch again its throwing an alert saying that "the firefox is not responding. You must close the existing firefox process or else restart your system". Please debug this as I have been fellow open-source lover & would be happy if you guys release a fixed update & if no one else should starts facing this issue ever again. Thanks in Advance guys!!!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Firefox won't open at all, and when I try to use the 'run' feature, it says the file has been moved, etc. I use Windows 8 and I can not lose my bookmarks. Help?

    Firefox has been working great on my computer for months, and then all the sudden it wouldn't load any pages. So naturally I restarted my computer, but when it restarted Firefox wouldn't open at all. The icon glows for a bit like normal, then it fades and never actually opens. When I try to use the 'run' command, I get this error:
    "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."
    I also tried the same for the file in the x86 folder but it gave the same error, and I went and looked for the files in the location given and they were there.
    Firefox didn't crash, so there aren't any other error messages I can give you.
    The things I had bookmarked are really important, I can not lose those, but other than that I'm fine with anything else needing to re-installed, etc.
    Help please?

    But I can't... find... it... It's not there.
    Unless you're talking about the entire Mozilla Firefox folder (which isn't what the thing you copied says,) there is no installation folder.

  • PR has been released, but i found the plant input is error.

    PR has been released, but i found the plant input is error. i want to correct the plant, and i wish the release info is saved, i.e. the manager needn't release the pr again. is it posssible?

    Hi,
    You can modify the PR but will the changes trigger the Release strategy depends on the configuration which is done in your system.
      If the Release Indicator is assigned for triggering the RS if there are any changes in PR the RS will get triggered and if it is not assigned it will not trigger.
    Please check the Release indicator configuration on weather the Indcator are set for changes.
    Thanks,

  • Firefox (latest and greatest) has been giving me synaptics scroll wheel errors. It has worked fine up until 3 days ago. I have the latest driver for the touch-pad, from synaptics, for my toshiba laptop L505D-S5986. Operating system is Windows 7 (32-Bit).

    Firefox (latest and greatest) has been giving me synaptics scroll wheel errors. It has worked fine up until 3 days ago. I have the latest driver for the touch-pad, from synaptics, for my toshiba laptop L505D-S5986. Operating system is Windows 7 (32-Bit). Have tried it on other browsers, and works as it should. The last add-on i installed for Firefox was "Fox Filter" so my kids couldn't accidentally stumble onto sites of immoral tastes. I can't see why that would have any effect, but it was the last update/add-on i installed to the browser, but even then,.......it was working fine for a week and a half afterwards until now. Please help.

    A few times a week

    Hello Steve.
    You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    If you detect a faulty add-on, you should contact its author for support. You can also search for alternatives. Site filters are relatively common in the add-ons gallery: [http://addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org].

  • ACR 8.7 has been released with support for the Nkon D750.  Why no Lightroom support yet?

    ACR 8.7 has been released with support for the Nkon D750.  Why no Lightroom support yet? Am I wrong or was support for the D810 available far more quickly?

    ACR 8.7 has not yet been released. The ACR 8.7RC has been released. It is a Release Candidate - and as such, is not a final version.  I wouldn't be concerned about a lack of Lightroom support until a final version is released.
