If I download the latest version will the browsing history of my existing version be lost or will it remain.

For various reasons I wish to retain my long term browsing history. I am concerned that if I download the latest version this history will be lost. Can anyone help.
Thx

hello Mugwumps, in principle it should work, but since you're using such an outdated version i don't think this particular update path is something that has been tested.
just to be sure, i'd recommend creating a backup of your profile (which contains all personal data including your history) before you continue with the upgrade: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

    You can't export the History in Firefox. It is possible to copy History items and paste them to a Bookmarks Folder and export the Bookmarks to an HTML or paste the history items to an HTML editor.

    Hello PamelaFox14,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you need to log in as the administrator to update the iTunes application properly.
    Take a look at this article named:
    Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    This section in particular:
    1. Make sure you have administrator account access
    To install iTunes or QuickTime software, you need to be logged in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure if you have administrator account access, you may find this Microsoft article helpful:
    Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?
    Otherwise, refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.
    All the best,

    That file might have moved to a different location on the server. I think you'll need to check with RefWorks support or your local IT department on why the install page links do not work.

    Hi,
    That should not be happening. Maybe you should take it back to where you bought it.
    Download and read the User Guide at this site: https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/id917482340
    Good luck.

    Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

  • After o download the browser ,i get message that says can not open file what do i need to do to download the browser i have tried 5 times get same message

    its the same shit i asked before after i download the browser i get message can not open file what do i do to dwonload the browser

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Firefox doesn't delete the browsing history in the address bar

    No matter what you do with Firefox in clearing the browsing history by going to History -> Clear Recent History and deleting everything or resetting FF by going to Troubleshooting information, Firefox doesn't delete the browsing history. The website you have browsed still appear in the address bar.
    Several people already have complained about this issue (see thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/939028) and the answer from the Firefox staff is that there is got to be a malware. This is not true, I've seen versions of Firefox in clean computers both Windows and Mac with Firefox doing the same thing, or more like not doing what it's supposed to do: clean the browsing history.
    How unsafe is that. Where is your privacy? Firefox has to find a way to fix this glitch. Something tells me they're doing it on purpose because it hasn't been fixed after the complains.

    You can delete the places.sqlite file if you aren't able to clear all history.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file
    Are that entries that appear if you click the arrow at the far right of the location bar?
    Do these items have a star to indicate that they are bookmarks?

  • How do I clear the browsing history on my iPad?

    How do I clear the browsing history on my iPad 2?

    Settings > Safari > Clear History (and Clear Cookies And Data if you want to clear them as well).
    If you also want to clear your search history (i.e. the words/phrases that you've typed in the search box) then you may also need to close Safari completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • I now use Firefox, but not sure which product number. Mozilla has been automatically downloading an update. When it is downloaded, the browser does not work. I keep having to restore the computer, and before long you download again. Help.

    I'd like to stop the automatic downloads number one.
    I'd also like a possible explanation as to why the new version will not work. I know that Microsoft downloaded a bunch of changes (12) that also seemed to screw up my computer. I have switched off their automatic downloads.

    To stop Auto updates use: '''Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Update Tab ''' <br> select the options you require ( see [[Updating Firefox]] )
    As for why your version does not work I do not know but suggest you look at:
    * [[Safe Mode]] Note when using safe mode do not make changes on the first dialogue Window you see; click the Continue button
    * [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
    You may also need to review the versions of Java see
    * [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]
    * "Why do I need Java 6 Update 10 and above for Firefox 3.6 and later versions? " - http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/firefox_newplugin.xml
    Your System details show you as using version 3.6.12 of Firefox, that is not the latest version, it would be normal practice to update to the latest version, which is why you are being offered the updates. See also [[Software Update Failed]]
