Java will not update in the check for addon updates in Firefox 17.0.1

Firefox 17.0.1, xp, sp3
I got to tools>add-ons, check for updates. It shows both "Java(TM) Platform SE 7 U9" and "Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.90.5" as out of date.
I do the update part and download updates. But, when I recheck, Firefox tells me that these are still not updated.
I remove all Java from control panel and double check with "Hijack-this" and ccleaner, restart computer, then do the Java download again from the Java site linked by Mozella firefox update links. I do the whole updates process.
After I check again in the Add-on update checking, it still shows both of the above Java's as still being outdated.

Since updating to Firefox 3.6.15, I can no longer print coupons from SmartSource. The error message is that Java is not detected. The check box is longer showing in the Options/Content of this version of Firefox, so I can not enable it.

# Question
Since updating to Firefox 3.6.15, I can no longer print coupons from SmartSource. The error message is that Java is not detected. The check box is longer showing in the Options/Content of this version of Firefox, so I can not enable it.

Same PC as I used to post the question. When I go to the "plug in check" page, it shows I am up to date and it is not disabled.
Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U24
Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_24 for Mozilla browsers 1.6.0.24

I went to the options window and on the update tab the check for updates section was grayed out.

I want to select "never check for updates" but I can't.

A possible cause might be that you do not have write permissions for the Firefox program folder to install updates.<br />
On Windows updates are usually downloaded and installed via a special service that runs in the background and that has elevated permissions (you need to approve this once during the first installation of Firefox).<br />
You may only be able to check for updates when Firefox is started as Administrator (not recommended for security reasons).<br />
You can see the current Firefox version in Help > About and visiting this window should show a message when updates are available.

My itunes will not connect to the internet for some reason,

i can go to the itunes store but when i try to update my iphone it tells me i am not connected to the internet whats going on? anyone have any idea?

I am experiencing this problem as well.
I have access to the internet and can download songs from the music store but iTunes is being its usual pain in the rear and says I do not have an internet connection when I try to download any updates.
This does not seem to be a firewall issue, at least as far as I can tell, as I have McAfee and both iTunes and iTunes Helper have Full Access in my firewall settings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Officejet Pro 6830 all in one - screen stuck on "checking for printer updates"

Windows 7 X64 install
I ran through the entire installation process and while the printer will print and will scan - the printer is hung on the message "checking for printer updates" with a red x below that message. I let it set all night and no change. The printer is setup as a wired network connection and can be seen with any of the tools. I have not errors on my system. I have uninstalled the software and reinstalled twice without success. I tried running a firmware update, but the firmware update states that I have the latest firmware rev. I even unplugged the printer and plugged it directly into the wall - n o change. Evertime I startup the printer screen, just hangs on that screen.
Please help.

I have the exact same problem with my new HP Officejet Pro 6830 printer. Please could you provide a solution else I guess it will have to go back to the shop as I only picked it up this afternoon.
Setup went ok and it even managed to print a couple of pages. But next time it started up (with wired ethernet connection) this problem occurred and happens every time ever since. (It is possible to use the printer for printing and scanning via PC, but the whole time its display is showing the "checking for printer updates" message.)
This even happens if the ethernet cable is not connected on startup (meaning the printer cannot be used as a standalone printer / copier either at the moment).
If I press the red cross (which I guess cancels the update searching) then I get a blue screen saying "B871634E" for a second or so, afterwhich I get a black screen with the message "There is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer Off, then On." and cannot do anything else. (The problem is the same after doing a printer off then on - even when following the "hard reset" procedure already mentioned.)
On checking the firmware version via the PC utility (while the printer sits there "checking for printer updates"), the PC utility app reported that the firmware was the latest version.

HP photosmart 6520 e Bought new Will not print my voucher checks. Details below

8 1/2 X 11 voucher checks To eliminate size, texture, thickness, any other paper reasons , I turned the check upside down. it printed exzctly on the back of the check what it should print on the face of the check. With the check face up, the printer drops down below the check and prints on the voucher what it should print on the check. If I feed a plain sheet of paper instead of the check, it will print correctly what it should print on the check............But it will NOT print on the check!!
My impressioon is that the printer scans the check, thinks the check is a letter head, and faithfully refranes from over-printing on the letterhead. Could this printer be that smart?? If so, where do I look inside to turn that feature off.
I'm using windows 7 with quicken (2007 issue) but the fact that the printer wii print correctly on anything you stick in there EXCEPT THE CHECK, pretty much eliminates everything cxcept the printer being headstrong.

Well I'm sorry that didn't, since your already using the latest drivers I recommend trying to install an alternate print driver and see if that helps any.
To try another print driver
-click on the Start icon
-choose "devices and printers"
-choose "add a printer"
-select "add a local printer" (make sure you choose the existing port that your current printer is on)
at the install the printer driver section choose "HP" as the manufacturer and under printers look for the "HP Deskjet 990c"
If your unable to locate the 990c driver click on the "windows update" button and then follow the above steps to choose the 990c print driver.
-click next once you have the driver selected
-if it asks I always select "do not share this printer" and I don't set it as default
just finish off the installation.
Once the new driver is installed you should see the 990c printer and be able to print to it. Try selecting it in your Quicken program to print the check.
Sorry for the frustration, I hope this helps.

Check for itunes updates automatically

Hi I'd like to roll itunes 7.02 out to my business users as we intend to deliver work related content via podcasts, but I'd like to standardise on a version.
Is there anyway to uncheck the "check for itunes updates automatically" in the general preferences via the registry?
I have looked can can't locate this setting but it must be there somewhere.
Thanks in advance

You have Synergy running? What happens when you don't have it running?
Any utility, whether a widget, an application or whatever, that controls or gets status from iTunes has the potential to launch iTunes when you don't expect. The developers try to ensure it doesn't happen but it can still happen.

TS1492 When I go to iTunes and then check for updates. I can not do this action due to the fact iTunes will not connect to the internet although the internet is working just fine, what do I do to fix this issue? Apparently I am currently using iTunes 7.0.

If you're really using iTunes 7.0 you are very far behind the current version - maybe it is trying to connect to a decomissioned server. In fact I am kind of surprised it will run on a Macbook Air. Are you sure you are running iTunes 7?

My iPhone is not receiving mail but these messages continue to flash at the bottom of the screen: Checking for messages, Updated just now, checking for messages, etc. After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received

My iPhone is not receiving mail but the following messages continue to flash over and over at the bottom of the screen: "Checking for messages, Updated just now, Checking for messages", etc. After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received and then the "Checking for Messages," etc. starts back again. I turned the phone off for 30+ minutes and also tried to reset it, but the problem continues. Any ideas on how to solve the problem?

Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

It's sounding a bit like a problem with your Apple Software Update.
Restart the PC. Now go into your Uninstall a program control panel. Can you see Apple Software Update in the list of programs? If so, select Apple Software Update and click "Repair".
If the repair goes through okay, can you get the updates to go through properly now?

I upgraded to Mountain Lion yesterday, but since doing so I find that my 1Password app will not work. I have checked for 1Password updates but there are none. Is there a compatibility issue

I upgraded to Mountain Lion yesterday, but since doing so I find that my 1Password app will not work. I have checked for 1Password updates but there are none. Is there a compatibility issue

Hmmm...I'm using 1Password Version 3.8.20 (build 31499) with a fresh install (scrape and pave) of Mt. Lion on my iMac and it's working fine.
I use Dropbox to sync 1Password so for my fresh install I simply downloaded 1Password from Agilbits website and installed it.
Have you tried reinstalling 1Password? Depending on how you purchased it, download it from their website or from the Mac App store to reinstall/replace it. (IIRC v3.8.x comes directly from Agilbits and v3.9 from the Mac App store.) You shouldn't have to uninstall it, the new download should overwrite the existing copy.
As with anything else, be sure to run a backup first!

I have tried to update my iPhone using the iTunes method but it will not work. The message "The iTunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try again later," appears. What do I do? The Internet is working fine.

Have you tried the following troubleshooting document?
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
If you end up using the If the iTunes Store opens successfully section of the document, and the "Automatically detect settings" checkbox is already checked, try unchecking and rechecking it and clicking OK.

The software is not updateing on my iphone 4 just say checking for software update what should i do?

the software is not updateing on my iphone 4 it saying checking for software update what should i do?

The battery drain issue started when I updated my iphone 4 to the IOS 6.1.2.
The battery will go from 100% to 0% in about 3 hours !!!
I called Apple support and they told me that they are not aware of an issue affecting the battery with the latest update. They did a diagnostic test on my iphone and found that my battery is healthy. Then then recommended that I backup my iphone, restore the factory settings and recover after that. In other words, delete everything off my iphone and reinstall everything all over again. I waisted a couple of hours doing that and .....I still have the issue of the battery drain.
I finally discovered the problem, and thus the solution!
To solve this issue, do the following:
Settings ---> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --->Fetch New Data ---> Advanced
Now click on your hotmail account or your company email account (anything in that folder other than yahoo, gmail or aol),
Change the setting from Push to Fetch !!!
And Viola ! Problem will be solved !
The problem seems to be that the mail exchange (i.e. microsoft, hotmail...etc) keeps checking and pushing emails from the exchange server every second (continiousely) and this is causing the battery to drain.When you change the setting to Fetch, then emails will start downloading every 15 min; but at least your battery will hold charge as it is supposed to do, until Apple comes up with 6.1.3 that hopefully will fix this issue.
Good luck. Hope this works out for you folks hence it sure did work for me this morning and it sure feels great.
Cheers !

My firefox beta 12 using Linux platform does not update to firefox RC1 via the "check for update" function. I know windows' beta version had this fixed, when would Linux get similar support ?

Current platform : Linux
Current firefox version : Firefox 4 beta 12
Issue : does not update to RC 1 using the check for update feature.
Background : previously downloaded beta 8 and then it automatically updated to beta 12 using update features but for RC1, it does not.
I know users under Windows platform had same problem but was resolved and they can now update via check for update feature.
Please implement for Linux users too.
Thanks !!

If you can't update then you can download and install the full Firefox 4 RC version.
