Just downloaded firefox but it constantly says it needs to update but can't AND PEarl Crescent doesn't work - saved JPEG and PNG files apear as gibberish

I have installed / de-installed and re-installed firefox on my mac and have had a lot of problems. When I used my PC I always used firefox but it isn't working on my macbook. Firefox is constnantly looking for upgrades but then doesn't actually upgrade and just gets stuck. I downloaded peal crescent (which worked prior to my de-installing and re-installing) and now all PNG and JPG files don't save properly and seem to come out as gibberish (they do hve .jpg and .png at the end)

You can download Firefox 15.0.1 directly from http://mozilla.com/ and install that directly. Please see this article (and the links in there) for more info: [[How to fix the Update Failed error message when updating Firefox]].
Are you trying to use [http://pearlcrescent.com/products/pagesaver/ Pearl Crescent Page Saver]? Which feature is not working as designed?

  • Why does Firefox Start page always says I need to update, but it is already updated.

    Firefox Start Page always has this message: " You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!"
    I open Help/About Firefox, and it tells me "Firefox is up to date." Version 6.0.2 Why do I keep getting a message to update it?
    Thank you.

    Just what is happening? When you restore via iTunes, the computer reinstalls the IOS on the iPod. To do that the computer first contacts Apple to find what the latest firmware for your device and and then downloads it if a copy does not already exist on the computer.

  • My daughter's ipod nano shows up in "devices" when I plug it in...but it disappears.  Right away it says it needs to update, but then after extracting the files it comes back and says that it can't be updated because it can't be unmounted.  help?!

    When in DFU mode and connected to the computer iTunes does not say anything but iTunes will see the iPod and you can restore the iPod via iTunes. When in recovery mode and you connect, iTunes will say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    Have you tried restarting the iPad or resetting it and then try to update?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This should not matter - but at this point you might as well try this as well. Close all apps, restart the iPad and then try to update again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button. Restart the iPad.

  • I live in NZ and just downloaded firefox because this other program i need to download requires me to have firefox3 but when i click on the other program to download its not downloading so why is that.

    I live in NZ and just downloaded firefox which was successful because this other program i need to download requires firefox3 so when i clicked on this program to download now that i have firefox its not downloading so why is that.

    Yes, you need the latest version of Flash to work with Mavericks and Safari 7.x. I'm not sure why you can't view some of the videos on YouTube but not all and I don't know which, YouTube or Safari, is suggesting a 10.xxxx version.
    Can you copy and paste the specific URL of a video that you're having problems viewing? Then I could take a look on my end and see if I notice anything funny.

  • Says it needs an update, but says it's up to date...makes no sense!

    First of all, why does the new version of Garageband seem to have less options in the software instrument section? Also, any time I go to look at the loops, they aren't accessible, you can see the "ghost" versions of them, and if you click on them it says you need to update it. When I try to update it, it says that my computer is up to date. I've tried downloading the updates for Garageband, but none of them seem to be fixing the problem...help me...please

    Click here and follow the instructions.

  • Numbers says I need to update, but Software Update says its installed?

    I updated to Maverick a month or more ago.
    Now when I open Numbers it says I need to update to the lates verstion (3.0)
    But when I open the SoftwareUpdate app is says there are now updates available (or needed)
    When I find the Numbers app in the AppStore is says Numbers 3.1 is "Installed".
    When I open Numbers and check "About Numbers"  it says  "Numbers 09  2.1(436)"
    Numbers will open, and I can work with my spreadsheets, but its getting annoying, and I'm worried something is screwed up between the AppStore Updates and the Numbers app....
    Any ideas?

    Hi Matt,
    After the update you have two version of Numbers on your Mac.  The latest version is in your main Applications folder. The old version is in a subfolder name iWork '09.  You are probably using the old version when you get that message. Try the new version and all should be well.

  • I have 193gb but cant download ios8 plz help it says it needs 2 gb but i have 193 spare????

    I have 193 gb spare but when go to download ios8.1 its says it needs 2 gb and manage my memory but i have 193 gb spare doesnt make sense it charges me for it and ive deleted loads of my phone???help plz

    If the 193 GB is on iCloud that can't be used to download and install iOS.
    I sounds like you have to move or delete 2 GB of data from your mobile device to clear space there for it to download and install.

  • Why does yosemite repeatedly require the java update?  I did it twice already but it keeps saying it needs the update.

    I updated my iMac to Yosemite the other day.  When I rebooted it brought up a message saying it needed a newer/updated Java something, so I went to the site to download it and then installed.  Today it asked for it again.  So I did it again, I watched it download and with the password, again, it updated and said it was successful.  Now when I open Safari it brings up the same message about needing the new Java software but I've done it twice already and it doesn't seem to find the file.  How do I get this to stop?  I am already wishing I had not made the jump to Yos

    Follow the official instructions to completely uninstall Java plugin:
    https://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml
    Then, if you don't need Java, don't reinstall it at all.  Having the Java plugin enabled in your web browser is a security risk and is rarely needed for any modern website.  I have not needed the Java plugin on a website in many years now and when I find a website that still uses it, I just don't use the website.
    If you do need Java for some reason, but not in the browser, then you can download the latest Java 8 version directly from Oracle:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/mac_download.jsp?locale=en
    Once it's installed, go to System Preferences > Java, click the Security tab, and then disable the "Enable Java content in the browser" option.  That will allow you to use desktop applications that use Java but keep you safe by disabling it in the browser.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
