Is the rumor i just read about new versions of firefox getting a Identity attached to it true? If it is, WHY? why would you ruin the privacy of your browser?
It seems privacy and integrity is under attack everywhere, Even from Firefox? I dont use firefox for anything illegal but i still value my privacy. So, is the rumors true?
hello, this blog post was from 2009 - in the meantime this project has evolved into an open source login-system named [https://login.persona.org/about Persona], that web developers can use for their sites. this isn't specific to firefox and will work with all other browsers as well...

I've heard that newer versions of Firefox no longer support RoboForm - is this true?
RoboForm toolbar is essential to me but friends have told me that when they updated previous versions of Firefox, they lost that capability. I don't want to chance it if they are correct.
Mozilla has blocklisted the 7.6.1 and earlier due to being a top crasher. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/i45
It is Roboform the supports Firefox, not Firefox supporting Roboform.
Roboform has supported Firefox 9 for several versions now. http://www.roboform.com/support/news -
My other browsers have a "tool button" I can click on to go in and change security settings, empty out the cache and history plus other things. i can find one with Firefox.

You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I have just just installed a new version of itunes. When i tried to run the new version it came up with the message "The file ituneslibrary.itl cannot be read because it was created by newer version of itunes.
I installed the new version because itunes had not recognised my ipod nano 5G, and told me to reinstall. Itunes selected which version to install, so I don't understand what is going on. To add insult to injury it installed a pile of malware which I am still trying to get rid off.
Any advice would be helpfulHello Davedamoclese,
Go through the below link to Remove iTunes and all its components from your computer first and then Re-install fresh copy of iTunes on your computer.

How do I get that back?? I've looked around the HELP section and can only find info about what tabs are etc... Even in all the picutres about the feature it shows the + icon at the top of the page to open a new one. What do I do??
NM, got it fixed. Thanks!!!

I just downloaded the new version of Firefox and now every site I used to use such as Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube show "This Connection Is Untrusted". Even when I do accept the risks the site no longer looks the way it's looked for years. Twitter doesn't even give me the option to accept the risks at all and shows this error (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer). I've tried resetting Firefox, I've checked the time and date, and I've removed and added Firefox to see if that would work. Nothing seems to be working so I can see the sites the way they normally would be instead of "coded". Can anybody help me please?!!! Thanks
ok, unfortunately the fiddler2.com issuer in certificates might be a sign of unwanted software present on your pc that is intercepting secure network traffic. please go into the system control panel and uninstall programs like BrowserSafeguard, BrowserSafe, SafeGuard or other software that sounds suspicious and didn't get installed by you intentionally.
<sub>reference: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/982532#answer-520145</sub>
afterwards, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

I have an old version of the Logic in cds. Can I just download a new version and give the serial number so I don't have to pay twice?
No..
You cannot download any version of Logic that you bought on CDs.... You must reinstall it using the disks that came with the boxed set.
The only downloadable version now is Logic Pro X....which, like everyone else.... you must buy via the App Store... as it is a new version and there is no upgrade from any other version. -
I have just dowloaded iTunes new version 10.4 (on Windows), and I can't paste any artwork from Word anymore, only directly from the net (where the size or the quality of the images is not always optimal). Major problem given that I'm in the process of re-ripping some 40K+ songs in Lossless format... Any way around this?
Peter Hah
After spending another two days on pinning down the iTunes 10.5 blank store page problem, here's the solution to be found: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3372617?start=0&tstart=0
Look out for "japiohelp".
In short:
a) press Windows key + "R", enter "cmd", and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter (= runs as admin)
b) enter "netsh winsock reset" and pres enter
c) reboot the computer
and Bob's your uncle.

I just downloaded the new version of Firefox (ver 4). Now when I open Firefox I get the address bar but the information part of my screen is blank. This happens on all web sites. How do I fix this? IE works fine.
Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

I just got a new MacbookPro using Mavericks OS. When I tried to load Filemaker Pro I got this message: You can't open the application Filemaker Pro.app because Power PC applications are no longer supported. This is a disaster.

The only viable solution is to upgrade to the latest versions of the PPC legacy software that will run under Mavericks.
Except for the other viable solution:
If you are unable or unwilling to upgrade to a version of Filemaker that runs natively under Mavercks, you can run your existing version of Filemaker by installing Snow Leopard Server into Parallels:

I just downloaded a new version of OS7 to my iphone and when I try to sync with my mac book pro it will not finish and just spins around at the last step. anyone help?
It was telling you that you needed Mac OS 10.6.8 or later, not itunes 10.6.8
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later"

Downloaded new version of Firefox 3.6.12. When I do a search the results on the screen use to have a heading and then a small description for each result. Now all that comes up is the heading. How can I get it back to the way it was?
I have the shortcuts on my browser to the sites that I go to frequently. It's when I press those buttons (which have always worked before and I checked their URLs) it takes me to the Yahoo Page not Found page. But then when I click the shortcut button again, it usually works.

Question
I have just updated to the new version of Firefox. Eventhough, i have reboated my computor, Firfox prompts to do it again and again and would not open. The same things happen if i try to unistall it or redownload it. What can I do? editIf there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
