My browser is expiring and I need to update it, but am unable to download the upgrade to my hard drive. It keeps giving me only the "Save to Disk" option. I don't have a disk chamber.
What do you mean by "Content"?
Wow... Surfing the web with Firefox 1.0 is like... going on the highway on a bicycle... or using Internet Explorer 6!! Don't! Just don't! Update to Firefox 3.6 as soon as possible, and avoid browsing the web with outdated browsers at all costs. The version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
If you need help installing Firefox, see this:

You may also want to see [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Upgrading+to+Firefox+3.6#Upgrading_from_Firefox_2_or_earlier this page].
If you need any help, just ask. Hopefully the email notification will work and I'll receive an email when you ask me something here.

I cannot use my Acrobat XI downloaded with my one year subscription. It tells me my trial has expired and i need to license it. but I have no serial number.
Rave,
I have the same problem. It says trial is expired, so I select the "sign in now" button. After sign in, it comes up with a place to enter a serial number. The only two other options are "back" and "next".

My Mac refuses to open certain pages e.g. google/facebook for a weird reason "Your flash player may be out of date and you need to update it", but my flash player is up to date. I tried to install a new flash player version "setup.exe" but it said the file cannot be opened because the application is not supported on MAC OS X, does anyone have same problem? please help.

Can anyone help me how to reset my security questions on my apple account? I forgot the answers and need to reset it. Please Help...
An alternate email is not used for resetting security questions, do you know if you have a rescue email address on your account ? If you do then follow steps 1 to 5 half-way down this page and you should get a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in Saudi Arabia to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699#S
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use -
My computer is running low on RAM, and when I look at what processes are using the most memory, firefox is the number one using between 28,000 to 93,000k, so I'm guessing that it has a memory leak.
And because of that memory leak I have to update firefox, however I really dislike the newest version of firefox and I'd prefer to stick with the version I have, which is 3.5.Often the memory problems are not just from Firefox in isolation, but partly relating to all the extensions available for it and then the videos and animations it runs on media rich sites.
The first thing to do is to upgrade to firefox 3.6 which is at least a supported version (Maybe not for much longer)
* see [[updating firefox]]
Next version after 3.6 is 4, you should avoid that, it did have some memory problems, that were worse than 3,6 and firefox 4 is no longer secure or supported.
The techies at Firefox have been working on memory problems recently and have made many improvements, but some of these improvements are only seen in the trial versions of Firefox.
I would in fact suggest you upgrade to Firefox 5 the current release version (soon to be replaced with Firefox 6)
I am able to run Firefox v3.6 to v8 on legacy XPs with less than 1GB RAM. Firefox in itself is not necessarily very demanding in terms of RAM. I am not sure what the figures are you are quoting, or whether they are high. ( Note 1Gb is in the order of 1 000 000 k )
As for not liking the set-up of new versions of Firefox, there is quite abit that can be changed, maybe you would be able to configure it more to your liking with little effort. -
Having updated all my iOS devices to iOS 8.0 I now need to update xCode to match. I've tried several times, and on each occasion have received an "unknown error -50" message after getting about 500Mb. After this my internet connection appears to be fully occupied, and the only fix appears to be a reboot of both the iMac (2.5GHx Core i5, 4Gb RAMm OS X 10.9.5) and the router (Netgear DG834 v5, firmware 1.6.01.34) At first I thought that the error had not stopped the download, but after waiting for 30 minutes the connection was still unresponsive, though traffic was indicated as passing through but the router status page, and no additional content had been added to the download. Anyone else having a similar problem and different ideas as to fixing it?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
How do I get downloads when I don't have my itunes on my computer anymore. My computer crashed so we had it fixed and it wiped my hard drive. So now I don't have itunes.
Depending on which country you are in, then you might be able to re-download the music from iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . Otherwise have you not got a backup of your purchases on, for example, an external drive or DVD that you can copy back onto your computer and add into iTunes ?

Hi, I just bought an iMac from E-Bay, a pre-aluminum, 17" C2D 2.0 gHz machine. The seller told me that he wiped the hard drive and installed Tiger, with a borrowed disk, so I don't have install disks.
I booted up the computer and it took me through the initial setup process. Everything seemed slow, it took a couple of minutes to get to the setup intro screen. After going through setup, it looked like it was going to go for a normal boot, but it re-entered setup. I went through the process 3 times, and it wouldn't let me choose the same user name twice, so it seems to have created 3 user accounts. But I can't get it to boot to a normal Finder desktop. Safe mode is no-go. I reset the pram, no change. I plan on trying to boot using Linux Mint on an external USB, to see if the hardware is functioning.
Any suggestions or insights
Thanks!You're not getting many hits here, try reposting at the Tiger site:

Also wondering when I am editing my photos and open the editor from the Organiser, will be edits take longer if my photo files are saved to an external hard drive.
Elements will work with images stored on an external hard drive. Keep it connected to the same port.
Saving images may be slower (ehd's usually have a slower write speed) but if you keep the program on the internal drive, performance should be the same. -

Hi, I have bought a later os from app store but am unable to download it, any help appreciated.
I am using 10.6.8 at the moment and have purchased 10.8. from the App Store.
Went through a long process of registering again, twice, sending in a coded number. To be told that the site is busy at the moment.
Not an easy or a straight forward process, with grammatical errors in the wording of documents.
Hey ho, try again tomorrow, day four.
Thanks for replying. -
I bought mountain lion for my macbook pro and I'm trying to install it and it says there was an error and I need to boot up but I don't have any other start up disks to boot up with. Are there any suggestions of how I could get my computer started?
Hold the Option key down and restart. Select one of the drives that comes up and hit the Return key.

i have just bought a macbook pro and i want to use an ext hard drive with it which i previously used on a windows computer, but when i plug it in it doesn't show up on my macbook pro, I've wiped it and just need to format it but don't know how, any help would be much appreciated
Try the other USB port. If it still doesn't show up in Disk Utility then there may be something wrong with your Mac. Try something else in each USB port and see if it is seen. If the other thing, like a USB thumb drive, does show up in disk utiltiy then the USB ports are fine.
Power down the system and restart with the drive connected, go to DU and see it it is seen. -
