My windows says i can't download firefox installer because file is corrupt, it does not have an electronic signature

after i donated 5dollars to become a member of firefox, i was given a file to download onto my laptop. this file is suppose to allow me to begin the process of setting up or installing firefox into my laptop that i may browse the internet. after i saved this file into my laptop i tried to open the file so i may start the process of setting up firefox into my laptop but my system says firefox file is corrupt it does not have an electronic signature. therefore i can't complete the firefox set up process that will allow me to have firefox installed in my system that i may browse the internet.

You should not be paying for firefox, delete whatever the file is and run malware checks on your computer.
Obtain a proper version of firefox from say getfirefox.com for free and install that.
* presumably you are using Windows (your system info, aside, suggests you are using IE ) see [[installing firefox on windows]]

    Click applications... utilities... disk utilities. select your drive and click "check permissions" and let it run. when this is finished, click on "fix permissions" and let it run.
    This should solve your problem.

  • I can not create an Installer, After install the Vision Builder Demo and then uninstall it. I can not create a Labview installer anymore, it asks me for a Vision Builder Installer, even if My Labview program does not have nothing to do with it...

    Solved!

     Hi Shada this can happen if you are including additional installers to your installer for example DAQmx. When you are doing this the installer has to include other files like MAX (Measuremente and Automation Explorer). Probably when you installed Vision Builder it updated MAX, so when your installer is trying to Include MAX, its asking for the source where it was installed in your computer in this case Vision Builder.
     Here you can cache the information so its not asked again, or you can download a newer version fo DAQmx, so it will update MAX and change de dependecy.

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player for a computer that does not have internet?

    Hello Walter,
    that's it, usually you get and Adobe Flash Player Installer only.  For a distribution in a company, or an installation on a PC without internet access, Adobe has available an offline installer. This installer you don't need to uncompress it first. You can download the installation file from there (you must logged in with your Adobe ID): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    If you still get the 306 after updating to 10.6.1.7, perhaps try the following user tip:

  • Can you sell an adobe muse website if the client does not have a license?

    Can you sell an adobe muse website if the client does not have a license?

    Hello,
    You can sell the website to the client, but if you give out the .muse file to the client, then they would need a muse license to be able to open that file in Muse and make edits to the website (in case they do need to make edits). If you simply give out the exported files, then they can upload the site to their host, but they would not be able to make too many edits to the website. The In Browser Editor is a feature that is available if the site is hosted with Adobe Business Catalyst, where they would be able to make certain basic edit/changes to the site.

  • How can I connect Apple tv to a digital projector that does not have an HDMI connection?

    I work in an elementary school library where we have 6 macs and 11 iPads.  I want to be able to share the output of each of these machines with Apple TV on a digital projector which does not have HDMI capability.  How can I do this?  I had been using an app called Refector with limited success.

    Open a program and drag the window over to the tv. You are using extended display mode.

  • My Mac has FaceTime 2.0 and it is terrible, I tried to download a new copy but the apple store does not have 2.0 Also I chat was the way I communicated before I upgraded. What happened?

    I upgraded to Lion X and have been having problems with FaceTime my version is 2.0 and the Apple store does not have this version, what happened to the changes, I used to use IChat and it was great, this is no longer available. Any hints for video conferencing or for what is going on.

    You can video conference with the iChat component of Messages. Not sure if that's possible with Facetime. I have been using Facetime for video chat without any problems. Quality is no different than with iChat.

  • AFTER downloading Firefox 4.0 I get a "system does not support" message and nothing happens. My old Firefox has been replaced by this one that dosn't work.

    Asked by Firefox to download Firefox 4.0 for OSX I did so. It replaced my old Firefox that worked fine. When I try to open it I get a Firefox "cannot be launched" window and nothing more happens. I tried to redownload Firefox 3.616 but to open it I get a "choose an application" message and I don't know which application to use.

    What is going on? I can't believe that it's virtually impossible to find a place to download the old version without going through all kinds of hoops and hoping that someone was brave enough to face the confusion of getting to the right place in order to find a replacement version. Why is system compatibility check not available before downloading? 4.0 downloaded and installed without ever stopping to check compatibility, which would have saved several hours of trying to figure out how to get the old version back (and it's no easier when you have a brain injury believe me!)
    And I'll still be forced to use this sucky new version in a "short time?" Have you people totally gone off the rails?

  • Popup windows are small and cannot be resized in Firefox v31.0. v30.0 and earlier does not have this problem. Example: Hostgator's SmarterMail. XP, 7, 8.1.

    My webmail interface is SmarterMail from Plesk as supplied by Hostgator. When Firefox updated to v31.0, I lost the ability to send mail because the popup windows for "New", "Reply", "Reply All", and "Forward" are too small to enter information and cannot be resized or maximized.
    This problem does not occur with older versions of Firefox (tested 16.0.2, 21.0, 24.0, and 30.0) or with Chrome or Internet Explorer. While I am writing to you from a Windows XP Pro SP3 system, I have also verified the problem under Windows 7 Pro (x64) and Windows 8.1 (x64).
    It's not profile settings, malware, or add-ons. I've tried Firefox Safemode and I've tried "Reset Firefox".
    For the time being the workaround is to disable Firefox updates and downgrade everybody with v31 to v30. Please fix this ASAP. You have lots of people reporting it.

    As a temporary workaround, you can block website scripts from resizing windows. It's a bit of a sledgehammer, but another user who has this problem indicated that it does stop the SmarterMail script from rolling up the window.
    Here's how:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''dom''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''dom.disable_window_move_resize''' preference to switch it from false to true.

  • I can't download a theme because of a "corrupt jarfile" notice, what does this mean and how can I fix it?

    I click to download an add-on theme for the web page and after it finishes downloading there is a notice that tells me something about a corrupt jarfile. I think it has something to do with the way it doesn't save to my laptop but instead uses a java file that i might not have. How can I change this?

    It looks like you are using an old version of Firefox that is no longer supported. It might that the Theme you want to install just isn't compatible with that older version, or maybe something else is wrong.
    The first thing you should do is to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.13. <br />
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/upgrade.html
    A '''jar'' package isn't limited to Java, Firefox uses it to package themes.
    You also have a number of Plugins that are out of date and might be a security risk, see this page for details: <br /> http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/

  • Trying to OCR pdf, pdf says it can't perform bc it already contains renderable text-but does not.

    I work for a large agency, and we receive PDF's all the time. 98% of the time I am able to OCR a document with no issues. Just recently I have come across this issue several times, and was wondering if anyone can solve this irritating problem!
    *Acrobat 8.1 - When going to OCR the document, I receive the following message " Acrobat could not perform recognition (OCR) on this page because this page already contains renderable text. However, it does not. When you go to select text or search for anything the whole page is selected (like it's still in a "picture" format, not a document format that you can search, ect.)
    I am not sure if it is how the document is uploaded originally by the other party that causes this, but the only thing I can do as a work-around - is to print out the entire document, scan and then I can OCR the document just fine! The problem is, if the document is 400 pages or so, this can be a huge waste of time, and money just to be able to search the PDF.
    *I have also checked the pdf properties to see if this is some sort of permissions issue, and there are not permissions/security settings in place.*
    PLEASE HELP! Any assistance in this matter would save me a lot of time, and of course (my sanity!).
    Thank you in advance!

    While the alert speaks to "renderable text" that is a simplification. The issue is that you've PDF page content consisting of at least one renderable "character".
    Look at font families - you will observe that there are many characters that are not "text" characters (i.e., linguistic characters).
    So, there's a "renderable character" present. It may be an alpha numeric that has a font color the same as the page background. It may be under the image and thus not visible to the eye.
    You might be able to determine just what is present.
    You could export the page of interest to a text file then view that file.
    You could deplay the page of interest in Acrobat Pro then select the "Content panel" to view the content tree.
    Locate and click on the page number for the page of interest.
    From the Content panel's Options menu select "Highlight Content".
    Walk down the tree. Select the content containers in turn and observe what is highlighted on the PDF page.
    Where might the renderable character come from ? Typically that'd be associated with something in the work flow.
    Not always easy to find so don't take anything in the work flow for granted.
    Be well...
