If I already have the Tor browser installed, can I also install firefox and run it independent of Tor sometimes?

I like the fact that Tor is anonymous, but I don't always need the anonymity when I surf the net. Just want to know if I install FF as well if they will open and run independent of each other. Kind of like running Chrome and IE at the same time.

As they are separate programs, there should be no problem.
But watch for any issues. There are many times I run Firefox
and another browser at the same time.

  • I keep getting a new tab asking me to update Firefox & JAVA but I already have the most current versions. I also am getting ads on the homepage

    After updating the most current Firefox I now get Ads on the home page that I can't get rid of even with the "X" box on the window. I have to shut down Firefox and start over to get anywhere. I didn't have this problem before the update.
    I also had a change to the new tab/page feature. I used to click for a new tab and a series of boxes would show where I've been so I can perhaps select one. That feature has changed and I now get a tab/page that says it is owned by AVG. Where is my old page

    If it opens in a new tab it is likely fake.

  • Upgrading Flash Player when I already have the latest verison installed on my computer

    I have the latest verison of Adobe Flash Player on my computer which is Adobe Flash Player 11 Active X  ( verison 11.9 ) and also I have Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin and while playing Farmville2 on Facebook, I am asked to download or upgrade my Adobe Flash Player. I have already been asked 3 times in the 45 mintues to upgrade my Player. Is this really neccessary that many times??

    You need to clear your browser cache and history so that the "cookie" which indicates a lower version isn't sent to Facebook.

  • Why does it suggest an update when I already have the latest version installed, everyday.

    I get a notification saying that an update is available, every single day, even though the available "updated" version is the same as the version already installed. e.g. 16.0a2

    The Aurora development channel is suppose to only get updates whenever there are checkins and since there are checkins almost everyday, there are updates each of those days. The version number does not change.
    To tell whet build you have look at the build date in user agent or in '''about:buildconfig''' source link.
    edit: Looks like Aurora is now going with the dumb idea of no build date in UA that was only in Nightly channel before ever since move/merge of channels recently.
    You could even try testing the Beta channel where Firefox 15.0 is on as updates are every so often. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta

  • I want to close one email account but don't want to loose my address book. I already have the new account installed and the address book shows up in it.

    If I delete my Roadrunner account in Thunderbird will it affect the address book that shows up in my new ATT email account?

    The address book is the Thunderbird address book, not roadrunner or comcast etc, the same address book services all account in Thunderbird.
    SO go ahead.
    But remember that if you have mail in a RoadRunner account folder in the folder pane that the folder will go with the account. All mail in the accounts folders inbox send etc needs to be moved to local folders before you delete the account.

  • Everytime I get on the internet it takes 5mins or more, and when it finally loads the thanks for installing firefox and thanks for installing personas pages are up even though I've already installed and used both.

    This started about two weeks ago. I had been using personas and firefox without any trouble, but now it takes 5x's as long to load if not longer and the persona I've chosen from my previous web visit is not up, but rather a default persona is.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

  • I can not get several apps to load on my i-pod touch and I even restored it back to factory.  The message I get is that I need iOS 4.3, but i-tunes tells me I already have the latest version.

    I can not get several apps to load on my i-pod touch and I even restored it back to factory.  The message I get is that I need iOS 4.3, but i-tunes tells me I already have the latest version.

    You can't install any application which requires iOS 4.3 or newer on a first or second generation iPod touch. If you still have a copy of that application compatible with iOS 3.1.3 or 4.2.1, import it into the iTunes library and sync it.

  • Hi - my Mu was "buggy" and would not update - so i threw the APP in the trash - but now CC will not allow me to Re-Install because it thinks i already have the APP - any advice?

    restore your app from the trash and then properly uninstall.
    if that fails, CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed

  • I subscribed to Adobe Acrobat Pro but it is telling me to install.  I already have the trial version for another 3 days.  Do I have to install it again?

    I subscribed to Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.  I have the trial version for another 3 days.  The e-mail confirming the subscription said to install it, but I already have the trial version. Do I have to install it again?

    Hello,
    No, you don't need to re-install the Acrobat again. Just license it when the next time trial prompt appears. The moment you put your email on which you have purchased the subscription, it will get activated.
    Regards,

    It is best to go to the source, Adobe, to get their software and updates. Sometimes malware can infect sites with messages that appear legitimate, but will, instead, install malware/virus/trojan on your system. Read the following carefully to install and/or update Adobe Flash.
    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually. '''''You do not have Adobe Flash (aka "Shockwave Flash" in Add-ons > Plugins) installed.'''''
    #'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    #When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
    #Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
    #*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
    #*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
    #*The installation is quick.

  • If I already have the android SDK and AVD installed from prior installation for eclipse do I have to

    If I already have the android SDK and AVD installed from prior installation for eclipse do I have to do it again for dreamweaver if I want to develop for android ?
    Also, if I'm developing for android, ipad, and iphone and I want them all to be the same can I do it by only making one site or I have to make a different site location for each?

    Inquire of whom?  Apple?  Seems to me your carrier is giving you the run-around.  They are the ones who provide the service, so they should be able to tell you the plan specifics.  Get on the phone again with them and insist on an answer.

  • I purchased Photoshop CC but I already have Lightroom 5.1 installed. Do I need to re-install the Lightroom download that comes with the purchase of Photoshop CC?

    I have purchased Photoshop CC that comes with Lightroom 5. I already have Lightroom 5.1 installed and wondering do I need to install the Lightroom that comes with Photoshop CC 2014?  Thanks

    As  you bought the CC plan of Photoshop plus Lightroom, you should uninstall your standalone copy of Lr as it may interfere with the correct working of the CC version, and install the CC version.
    I don't think that's true at the moment; the CC version of LR5 is identical to the stand-alone version, and it will interwork with Photoshop in the same way.
    However, when LR6 is released then that comes free with CC but not with the stand-alone version.  So you might want to follow johnhawk666's advice when LR6 is released, if you haven't done it by then, or you won't get the upgrade to LR6.
    By the way, uninstalling your existing LR5, then installing the CC version (via the CC app) shouldn't alter anything - your settings, catalog etc should be picked up by the new installation.  However, a wise person would back everything up first anyway, just in case!

  • HT4623 I already have ios 7.0 installed in my iphone 4S. Although the size of ios 7.0.2  shows only a few MB, but when i click update using from my itunes it shows it is downloading 1.19GB. Why is this ? Do i have to download 1.19 GB?

    If you update using iTunes, the full iOS is downloaded. If you update directly on your phone, this is called a "Delta" update, & only the changes to the iOS are downloaded. That's why you see the difference you see.

    1. Close all inactive apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two and tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

  • I bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode

    i bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode

    Disable anti virus software.
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion as well as third party download managers.
    Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.
