Previous version on disk for FinalCutStudio 2 update

We have two licenses of FinalCutStudio 1 installed in two PowerMac G5. One of those G5 is beginning to have problems and we are planning to substitute it.
I remember that the installation in the G5 was a nightmare because it required the previous version (4.5) on disk. And version 4.5 was also an upgrade that required version 3.0 on disk. And version 3.0, in turn, required the previous version. That first version was FinalCut pro 1.2, just for MacOS 9. Since you cannot boot a G5 in MacOS 9, you cannot install FinalCut 1.2 in that Mac.
After many hours of struggling with Apple, they sent us a disk with an installer of FinalCut pro 3 for MacOSX that didn't need the previous version on disk. But this disk is lost in action (in moving).
Now my question is:
If we buy the upgrade version of FinalCutStudio 2 for the new Mac, will it need the previous version on disk? Will we be in the same trouble again? The price difference between the upgrade version and the standard license is 800 euros. And those who sign are not akin to spend them.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks a lot. This will help me to convince the bean counters that we are not a bunch of freaky big spenders.

How do I download a previous version of firefox for mac osx 10.5.8 (leopard)?

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher

'''''The good news''''' is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. '''''The bad news''''' is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

How do I roll-back to the previous version of Firefox? An auto update occurred and now one of the programs used at the office (ACT! v6.0 SwiftMail) won't run with the browser.

The office I work in uses a very old version of ACT!, an accounting package. This package has a component called SwiftPage, an antiquated email system that enables us to email from the ACT DB. SwiftPage runs via the web browser.
Firefox just did an auto update (that I will have to find out how to turn off) and now SwiftPage won't run as it is not compatible.
Can I "roll-back" my version of Firefox or do I have to uninstall and try to re-install an older version?
HELP!

Try loading and using the add-on from this link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
Many add-ons do in fact work if you force them to run. The procedure to roll-back is given in this article: [[installing previous versions of firefox]]
Unfortunately the official Firefox policy is that you downgrade to 3.6 which is supported for a while longer, and not the now unsupported Firefox 4. If after installing and running the ''add-on compatibility reporter'' you still have problems there are ways around the official policy.
I think it is absurd that Firefox 4 may be used by tens of millions of users one day and a few days later those that upgrade to Firefox 5 should be not only told not to use a now unsupported browser, if they need to revert due to problems, but are actually obstructed in attempts to do so.

Previous version of Director Movie - cannot be updated

I am upgrading my previous director movies and get an error "This Director movie was created with a much earlier version of Director. It cannot be updated".
I am using Director 12 and I think the .dir and .cst files were used pre Director 8.5. I know I should open them in 8.5 and convert and then maybe have to do this again in v12? But I do not have version 8.5. Does Adobe or can anyone offer the service of updating previous versions of my director movies? Any suggestions?
OSX Mavericks, Director 12
I have just tried to open my Director 11 but all I get is a white black screen.
kind regards
Tristan

Sorry for being a bit grumpy – I find the Director forum a bit hard to deal with, when people criticize D12.
Being able to produce iPad apps is a MIRACLE for me
But, I do understand where you’re coming from – RE: making iPad apps is NOT as easy as making Windows & Mac projectors.
How times have changed – you can’t even make a Windows / Mac projector without it coming up with so many warnings re: unsigned program / who made this? Ect… - which puts most people off.
(Rumour is that the next Apple OSX will only install apps from their app store. )
When I have more time, I’ll post some more of my ios / iPad demos.
I also understand the suicide comment (lol) – I’m working on a very expensive iPad app, which works great for about 20 minutes, then it bombs out.
If this helps >
If you make a D11.5 mac projector, and it asks for shockwave 11 to install – yet it’s not a shockwave file but a projector???
Try NOT inbedding the xtras into the projector – but have them in an ‘xtras’ folder outside of the file.
Just make sure you put all the xtras ‘you use’ in the folder!
This should fix this problem.
One of your xtras is not being inbedded? / is missing? – so director tries to find it by downloading shockwave – but when it tries, it downloads the latest shockwave 12 – when it really needs the older xtra from shockwave 11 to work.
resX could be replaced by…
if the runmode <> "Author" then
    the stageColor = the stageColor -- removes the white flash
    (the stage).rect = (the desktopRectList)[1]
    (the stage).drawRect = (the desktopRectList)[1] -- this makes the stage full screen!
end if
pom (print’o’matic) could be replaced by…
print() – move text & graphics to a flash object first!
Thanks.

How can I revert to a previous version and stop firefox from automatically updating?

I'd like to have the ability to deny an update, some kind of dialogue box. It just went to 9.0.1 with no approval whatsoever.
The reason why is that FF main appeal is the range of extensions, having over half of them non-functional because developers can't keep up with frequent Firefox updates is frustrating beyond compare.

Hi PJ99,
You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]]. This will show you how to roll back to an older version.
If you want to turn off automatic updates, just take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Updating%20Firefox#w_how-do-i-configure-update-options this article]. That will prevent Firefox from updating automatically.
Hopefully this helps!

I want to download previous version 3.6 for Mac OS Leopard, 4.0 doesn't work on my config; can't find earlier version download and sadly 4.0 overrode my version then said I couldn't use 4.0, so now I have none!

Foolishly tried to update to 4.0 which, once downloaded said it would not work on my OS, but also overrode my previous version so I deleted the lot thinking I'd start over and download the earlier version, however I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE. What's going on with that? Thanks.

I have PPC - thanks, I'll have a look at that website. I downloaded v3.6.17 but still having a problem - maybe didn't erase fully the previous version and it's getting stuck. I'm going to delete everything and start over as Firefox is my preferred browser.

Cannot uninstall previous versions of iPod for Windows

Over a year ago, my roommate gave me his old iPod. I installed it and iTunes and it worked fine until the battery on the iPod died and everything went nuts with the iPod - iTunes worked fine.
Now i have a new 30 gig video iPod, but I can't get anything working. I had to fight to update iTunes / Quicktime. Basically, I had to run:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver\8\Intel 32\IDriver.exe" -Embedding
from the command line. I don't know why, but it worked.
Now I have three versions of "iPod for Windows" installed. I click to uninstall any of them (from add / remove programs) and nothing happens.
I wouldn't care, but when I run iTunes with the iPod connected, it says "the software required for communicating with the ipod is not installed correctly."
I've tried everything I can see, but I'm suspicious the three versions of iPod for Windows are conflicting with each other and / or iTunes.
Can anyone offer any help?
Thanks in advance.

Yes it is, the iPod updater was integrated with iTunes when version 7 was released. As a back up, you might want to keep the last one in case you ever needed it but dispose of the rest, they are just taking up space.

I have had LR since LR3. I bought the original program and have done updates ever since. Do I need to keep the previous versions of LR for my LR5 to work?

Hope I can get some insight!

Just to be a little more specific, you do not need to keep LR3 installed on your computer, but the terms of your license with Adobe require you to not transfer LR3 to another person if you have upgraded to LR5; if you think of it that way, you should "keep" LR3 in that sense. The license terms allow you to have Lightroom (any version numbers) installed on any two devices (which could mean a Mac computer and a Windows PC, or a laptop or desktop, or any combination along those lines). If someone else were to attempt to register the same LR3 key you're supposed to still have to run your LR5 upgrade, either you or the other person could get blocked in that attempt.
Before upgrading, it's always a good idea to download and try out LR5 to make sure it runs well on the computer you want to use it on--some devices that can run LR3 well can't run a later version well, and if that applies to your hardware, it's best to figure it out before you've paid for LR5.

HELP! My mac os version is old for newest itunes update!

Hi, please help, I'm soooo frustrated!!
I had an older version of Itunes and was forced to install the newest 12.0.1 version, so I did, and restarted my laptop to complete installation and nothing happened - the update wouldn't get finished, so I did this about 3 times still installation wouldn't complete. Thinking this is a glitch with installation, I deleted Itunes altogether and went on itunes.com to install the new version from there. After it got installed, it told me that it requires OS X version 10.7.5 and my current one is Mac OS 10.6.8 !!! This is sooo annoying, why does Apple force ppl to get updates all the time??

If it's a PowerPC Mac, upgrading isn't possible.
If it's an Intel Mac, upgrading requires buying a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

How do I revert my iTunes library to previous version?

I have had horrible experience with my B/W 40GB clickwheel -- using with Windows XP. Several crashes and each time takes 20+ hours of trying various fixes to get it back up and working. This time I can't get it to restore, no matter what I try. (Only thing that I haven't tried is taking it to a Mac to restore. BTW, if I take it into a Circuit City, do you think they'll let me use the Mac on their floor to restore my iPod? I don't live near an Apple store and don't know anyone who owns one.)
Anyway, I'd like to revert to a previous version of both iTunes and iPod Updater, 6.0.5 and 2006.06.28, respectively, in hopes that that will put me back in business. But I have been unsuccessful because iTunes tells me it can't read my library because it was "created in a later version of iTunes", i.e. 7.0.1 or 7.0.2. Can I revert my library? Do I need to reinstall iTunes 7.0.2 and do something?
How can so many of us be having such horrible problems with iTunes 7.0.x (and Windows in general?) and still no fixes?? If this thing hadn't been such an expensive gadget, I would have chucked it out the window a long time ago and gotten some sleep.
Thanks for any help you can provide!!!

First, go through this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
Restart the computer when you're done.
When you get the system configuration message, click OK, and cancel the utility when it opens.
Open My Computer
Click Tools > Folder Options
Click the view tab
Towards the bottom, select the option to "show hidden files and folders"
Click "apply" and "ok"
Open:
C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Local Settings
Right click on the temp folder and click delete
Empty the recycle bin
Restart the computer
Now, go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
Uninstall anything that says iPod for Windows
Uninstall anything that says iTunes
Then, open C:\Program Files
Delete the iTunes folder (if it's there)
Open the iPod folder
Delete the bin folder (if it's there)
Now, go to My Music and double-click the iTunes folder. There is a data file that is simply labelled "iTunes Library." Delete it.
Go here to download and install iTunes 6.0.5
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes605forwindows.html
Go here to download and install the corresponding iPod Updater
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ipodupdater20060628forwindows.html
When it's done installing it should ask you to restart your computer. Go ahead and do so. Then, try to open iTunes and let it put your library back together. When it has done this, exit iTunes and go back into your system configuration utility. (Click Start > Run and type MSCONFIG) On the general tab, choose the option for "normal startup" and click "apply" and "close" and restart the computer again. This has your Windows running normally. You should be OK from here on out.

How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player?

While we always recommend using the latest version of Flash Player, sometimes problems are encountered in a new release that were not present in a previous release. If you are unable to work around these problems and they block functionality you rely on, rolling back to a previous version might be required until an update is made available. This FAQ will walk you through the steps required for reverting back to a previous version of Flash Player.
Please note that Google Chrome provides it's own version of Flash Player. For more details on this, along with instructions for using a version other than the default with Chrome, please see: Flash Player with Google Chrome.

1. Follow the steps in the "How do I do a clean install of Flash Player" FAQ, but stop at the end before installing the most recent version
2. Install the latest Flash Player ESR release.
The Flash Player ESR release provides a player with all known security patches applied.
If downloading from the Flash Player archives, please note that you will be downloading a .zip file that will contain installers for all operating systems.
Unzip the archive and navigate into the appropriate folder (you can safely ignore the folder that ends with "_debug").
Run the appropriate installer for your operating system and browser.
If installing for Internet Explorer, run the installer with "winax" in the file name.
For Windows, running the executable that ends with .exe is recommended.
When presented with the dialog that allows you to select your update method, select "Notify me to install updates".

Hey Chris, thanks for all the keeping up with us and stuff. I have an issue and i'm not sure if this was already discussed (if so sorry). Windows 8 IE 10 I'm getting an error tying to downgrade my customers to the beta. The message i'm getting is
The installation encountered errors:
Your Microsoft Explorer browser includes the latest version on the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of Flash Player are available.
I have done my research and I cannot find how to fix this issue. I have ran the uninstaller multiple times and restarted blah blah all the goodies. It will not let me install the beta.
Please help..... any idea how to get beta running on hundreds of my customers machines?
The beta work's great it seems like and I wouldn't mind installing the beta on all their machines till the final release (which seems like a few weeks away)
Thanks again, Tim
