Need help checking 2 see if my plugins are up 2 date- page where I find info says "click update"- I can't find where 2 click

My Firefox keeps crashing when I have windows open that use Shockwave Flash player, and today my CPU is up in the 30-40% range. I went to the page where I should be able to make sure I have the latest version of the plugin (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/) and it says "click update..." but I can't figure out where to click. I'm running Windows 7. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thanks in advance!

  • Link to "Check to see if your plugins are up to date" is broken

    If i go to Tools > Addons and click on the "Check to see if your plugins are up to date" link, it gives me an error
    "Plugin Finding Service Error
    We've encountered an error. Please try your request again later."
    The link is sending me to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    If i manually navigate to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ it works fine.
    Therefore the link to the secure protocol has broken
    thanks. ..

  • Problem with the "check to see if you plugins are up to date" Link in the Add-ons Manager.

    Whenever I try to follow the link I get to sent to
    https://www.mozilla.com/en/404
    instead of
    https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    I don't know why this started happening, I only noticed it several minutes ago but I wanted to report it.

    This has been fixed on Mozilla's side in Bug# 752232
    It tries to use http'''s'''://www.mozilla'''.com'''/plugincheck/ and then gave a error instead when redirecting to http'''s'''://www.mozilla'''.org'''/plugincheck/
    Many Mozilla pages that were on mozilla.com have since been either changed to or is being redirected to mozilla.org and sometimes issues have arisen.

  • Can't check if plugins are up to date

    since Friday 5-4-2012 around 6pm est,(on 3 separate computers) i have been getting "sorry we couldn't find the page or file you were looking for" when i click on the link "check to see if your plugins are up to date" through the add-ons page. it's the first time i have ever encountered this problem.....can any one help me with this? i have tried, restarting Firefox, restarting the computers, shutting off the firewall, uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling and so far none of these have worked. it is now Sunday 5-6-2012 around 10:30 am est and i have been clicking that link several times each day to see if anything new happens or gets fixed and so far it has not.....I'm still seeing the same page. i would appreciate it if someone could help me solve this very quickly.....thanks for any help.

    plugins.update.url has always been set to "http'''s'''://www.mozilla.'''com'''/%LOCALE%/plugincheck/" so far - https://mozilla.com seems to be generally broken at the moment (again, bug 752232) & the problem of plugin check showing a 404 from inside firefox is just a byproduct of that

  • When i try to check my plugins are up to date I am linked immediately to a download java page and can't access the list of plugins

  • I have Firefox 18.0.1 and when I click "Check to see if plugins are up to date", I get an uresponsive script warning.

    When I click the link "Check to see if plugins are up to date" at the top of the Add-ons Manager page, it opens a new page like normal. The new page displays everything but the plugins and their status. The page just sits waiting for the status results to populate. If I try to click anything at this point, the page freezes and I see a message at the top of the window that Firefox has become unresponsive. If don't click and wait about 60 seconds, I get a "Warning - Unresponsive Script" message. I also see the following information with this warning:
    Script: https//www.mozilla.org/js/plugincheck.js:14
    This first happened yesterday, after accidentally removing Java from my PC - I think it was Java 6. When I tried to access Java downloads to re-install, I got the same unresponsive script message. So, I had to access Java downloads with IE instead of Firefox, and I re-installed Java (version 11, update 11). Has Java caused my problem? Should I attempt to find Java 6 and install it?

  • Firefox 6 on Windows XP SP3 does not close properly after checking if plugins are up to date.

    After doing Tools > Add-ons > Plugins > Check if plugins are up to date, Firefox process will not exit after closing Firefox.
    I can close the window, but Firefox process does not exit. New window does open if I click Firefox icon to launch it. After reboot Firefox complains that some tabs could not be opened, as if it had crashed because of reboot.

    i deleted the rdf and now the first window only (and any tabs in it) are maximised. i found this in the rdf
    <RDF:Description RDF:about="chrome://browser/content/browser.xul#main-window"
    screenX="4"
    screenY="4"
    width="1008"
    height="461"
    sizemode="Normal" />
    i tried changing normal to maximised; no effect. either i need also to change the numbers (to match a maximised window) or ff ignores this. i want to be able to open different sites in different windows, and not have to maximise them manually. ff never used to be broken, why break this? what possible security flaw was fixed by screwing up ff to never open maximised unless u hack it or delete certain config files?

  • Why is Metastream plug-in listed when I do a Plug-in Check on what plugins are up to date, I thought it was blocked?

    MetaStream 3 Plugin is listed as a Plugin, Status Unknown when I click on "Check on what plugins are up to date" of the Add-ons Manager. (I think this has just recently started happening.) The three other plugins listed are active and none of the other supposed inactive or blocked ones are listed.
    The Add-ons Manager does indicate Metastream has been disabled due to security issues.
    Is this normal or of concern?

    Regardless of if a plugin is disabled or enabled, it will still display on the plugin check.<br>
    This is to ensure that if the plugin is enabled the user is running the most current and secure version of that plugin.

  • IPhoto can't find photo even though the thumbnail is present. Any help, there are dozens of photos in my library that won't open as iPhoto can't find them.

    iPhoto can't find photo even though the thumbnail is present. Any help, there are dozens of photos in my library that won't open as iPhoto can't find them. This is probably a very common question!

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We need to know the details of your problem and situation, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when you launch iPhoto to open your library?
    what fixes have you tried before coming here?
    where is you library located?
    how long has this been occuring?
    did you apple any updates or upgrades just prior?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    What do you see when you click on a thumbnail?

  • How do I get rid of the annoying yellow banner saying "some plugins are out of date on this page."

    Since 5/22/12 I have an annoying yellow banner in Firefox (and other web pages) stating that "some plugins are out of date on this page.") How do I get rid of this? I've checked my plugins and I'm fine for my Mac OS (10.4.1).

    Sounds similar to this thread from yesterday: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927963 How do I stop getting the prompt to update plugins? | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]. Do any of the suggestions there help?

    You have to do it on the Apple TV itself while it's plugged into a TV so that you can see its screen.

  • TS1389 I am trying to authorise a new computer. The Apple instructions are to select Authorise this computer from the itunes store menu. I can't find this in any menu. Can you please help? How do I authorise my computer?

    I am trying to authorise a new computer. Apple's instructions are to select "Authorise this computer" from the itunes store menu. I can't find this in any menu. Can you please help? How do I authorise my computer?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
