I want to upgrade, not install intunes all over again!
Heres the thing, me, i'm perfectly happy with an outdated version of itunes, it doesn't bother me in the slightest, however all my movies and TV shows have disippeared from my 30g ipod video and i'm assuming the outdated version is why. I clicked to find updates and i'm brought to a page asking me to install itunes all over again, not just update. Help?
Windows XPAs with most programs, when you update them, the "Old" version has to be removed in order for the new program with its new files to be installed.
When you download the "New" version of iTunes and start installing it, It will detect the "Old" version you have, automaticly remove it and place the new updates to your PC.
When the old version is removed you will not loose any playlist, Music, Ratings ect ect. You can remove iTunes, then reinstall it urself and still not loose any music or have it deleted. -
All (nearly) add-ons / extensions disappear after update to v15 then v16
This has happened to me twice now. After a FF update (first to v15?) all or most add-ons / extensions disappeared, didn't even appear in the menus. (At least I am sure my critical extensions (see below) were missing earlier. It has been awhile.) After trying the solutions posted in various topics I finally gave up and created a new profile. I installed my more critical add-ons, Firebug, Flash Firebug and Restartless restart. Everything was fine until the latest update to 16.0.1. Once again all add-ons disappear, including from the menus. Curiously "clear recent history" also seems to have been missing until I deleted the extension and compatibility files.
Going back to my previous profile, after deleting the extension and compatibility files and reloading FF I see that some add-ons now appear but not my critical ones.@cor-el,
So... With FF closed I deleted localstore.rdf, compatibility.ini, extenstions.* and addons.* files. Start FF, the files rebuild. No extensions appear so no change.
As a test I created a new profile and added extensions and of course, everything worked fine. Then I got slightly smart and restored the entire profile (and just that profile) from a backed up version before the FF update. Everything works again!
Conclusion: Something in the FF update process corrupted something other than the files we discussed above causing (nearly?) all add-ons to not work. So far it appears that whatever the update changed in the profile was not needed as restoring an older profile version seems to work fine. -
Checking compatibility of add-ons always running after update
After updating Firefox to version 6, the checking compatibility of add-ons is always running with each start of Firefox, and "Welcome to Firefox" site is always opening as well.
This is very disturbing.Apparently I wasn't clear or the word upgrade wasn't right. I meant going from 4 to 5. I downloaded it, installed it and got no option resembling that at all, it just saved a DMG to my hard drive and then told me to put it in my applications folder as always. I opened it and that was that, no compatibility check. I already got one error about an add-on that's vital. I'd backed up before I installed and saved Firefox 4 as a separate file before opening 5, I hope I'll be able to go back to it. The old system was really much better, what's the point of finding out after you already installed something if your systems will work? Or of avoiding installing because you're afraid they might not when everything very well might be fine? I can guarantee you that I won't be installing an major updates for a very long time, that's for damn sure.

Hi I just bought a new computer and I want to transfer my firefox browser to it . I have my broswer configured just the way I want it from the persona to every last add on , and I have quite a few add ons. My question is can I download and move it to my new laptop or do I have to make a list of every add on I have and down load each one over again

Spell check not only underlines words that are not in its dictionary, but suggests words when the flagged words are right clicked. However, if words have been added to the dictionary by a user, it does not appear that spell check incorporates the new words into to the suggestions for proper spelling. As a result, if I misspell a word that I have added to the dictionary, I have to manually correct it, because the correct spelling that was added to the dictionary is not offered in the drop down list when the word is right clicked.
''is there any way that Firefox will actually suggest correct spelling''
Right click on the indicated word, and choose, the spelling, add to dictionary,
or close the right-click context menu to allow without changing anything.
You probably have other dictionary lists on your computer of words that you've already verified and added, open that list or a copy of it in Firefox and add the ones that show up as invalid using your better judgement that you have now than in the past.

I installed beta 4 last night. Now, every time I open Firefox it asks me if I want to make Firefox my default browser. I click yes, and it goes to Firefox 3.6.15 and thanks me for upgrading. I have been running 3.6.15 since it was released. I have to reload beta 4 to get back to it again.
I got this all screwed up too.
hmm.. where to start?
3.6 and 4.0 beta - really aren't intended to play well together.
As has been mentioned above, they tend to write over each other.
I managed to get both 3.6.15 and 4.0 beta 12 on the same machine.
But, I had to do it several times.
I got lucky by deleting everything Mozilla, then installing 4.0b12, then 3.6.15 - while making sure that each installed into a separate folder.
I also took care to copy out a couple of BookMark BackUp files - just in case.
My old 3.6# had become so bloated - and, Unstable - for Me, it was time.
The bookmarks were all that I was still interested in.
All the Plugins, Themes, AddOns, etc... had slowed the app to a crawl.
So, I did as complete a wipe of Mozilla bloat code that I could, including profiles.
I then did some registry cleaning.
Then I installed 4.0b12 and 3.6.15.
I can't open them both at the same time.
If I open 3.6.15 first, then open 4.0b12 - the beta comes up as 3.6.15.
If I open 4.0b12 first, then open 3.6.15 - the 3.6 comes up as the beta.
This has a lot to do with both apps sharing the same default profile.
I hope to drop down to one app in the near future.
So, cobbling multiple profiles in order to diddle side by side apps - isn't worth it at this stage.
For me, I can't open FF 4.0b12 when my virus protection is running. PCTools doesn't like some thing about the way FF4.0 wants to phone home when it opens.
So, I can't commit to the 4.0b12, yet.
3.6.15 was crashing on open too - until I uninstalled the feedback addon. - go figure -.
Also, I can't get the 4.0b12 to start in safe-mode with the PCTools antivirus running.
At the rater they are going, I don't see 3.6.# going away any time soon. -
Having just installed the latest iTunes update, I find my system grinds to a complete standstill. I've checked and found two apple processes, apsdaemon.exe and applemobiledeviceservice.exe use 90% plus of my processor, so have stopped these. However, each time I start iTunes the same situation occurs. Is there anyway I can remove these exes from my system or is apple aware of this stupid update and what are they doing about it. Any guidance would be very much appreciated
What version of itunes were you using before you updates?
Have you checked other related post?
iTtune will require applemobiledeviceservices.exe and others to run. What you are experencing is usually caused by a conflict with other software on you system. Everybodys system is set up differently, so there is not a "one fix all". Most commonly associated with Firefox addons, video accelerator software, podcasts on the backup, anivirus software, parential control software, take you pick!
I found my fix here.

I just installed the newest itunes update. An error message says it did not install the software that communicates with the ipod correctly. It suggests re-installing itunes. Can I avoid that hassle?
Ok, thanks that helps. I don't have an external hard drive though. What about backing up through 'the cloud'? I'm just wondering since my husband syncs his iPod to the PC through iTunes and he's worried that he will lose all the songs on his iPod if the library is lost from iTunes and he tries to 'sync' it up again. I'm not exactly sure how to 'copy the entire iTunes folder' either. I kinda suck at this unless I have step by step instructions, which I haven't found yet on iTunes help or other sources.
The only way I know how to back anything up is by going back to a restore point, etc. (as stated before, we don't have an external hard drive.)
Thanks for the info. -
I can not open my itunes. I'm afraid if I delete it and reinstall a new itunes that, when I plug my phone in it will delete everything on my phone. Then I will have lost everything music, photos, apps, etc. because I have deleted my old itune.
Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes won't affect its library. Back it up anyway.

How do I restore this app ?
Are you sure you are selecting the correct app in the App Store? Some apps have two different versions for the phone and the iPad and if you are looking at an iPhone version of the game, then it would show up as having a cost associated with it since it would be a separate app.

I don't know the name of it but a toolbar at the top of the window has disappeared after I restarted Firefox. It contained add-ons such as Download Helper and I don't know how to get it back. Please help. Thanks!
EDIT: Sorry I meant the "Save Complete" add-on, not Download Helper.Be sure "Add-on Bar" is checked (click on "Add-on Bar" to check or un-check)

Add-ons not working after server IP address/domain name change.
Hello everyone,
We have just changed the IP address of our SAP Business One server and moved it into a new domain.
Although SAP Business One is working as expected, the add-ins created by a third party do not work. Having very little knowledge of SAP I do not understand where the problem could be.
The third party were on-site today and have reinstalled the add-ons but they still do not work.
There is an error message when starting the client that states: Module <Compatability Licensed for Add-ons> Expired on <20080115> but the third party have stated that this isn't a license issue.
Can anyone provide any assistance/advice on what the problem may be?
The possibilities for the problem at the moment are:
- Invalid license key for add-ons (but why would changing the IP address/domain name cause this issue?)
- The add-on is coded with the original IP address of the server.
- There is a permissions problem that has been missed (as users are in a new domain).
Any advice/suggestions are welcome.
Many thanks,
John>

I am afraid that the possible cause is the addon is coded with the IP address in their connection method. It could be possible that it is a hardcoded addon.
you must ask the addon developer to change it and do not use the IP address anymore in the addon.
