Security update 5.0 disabled Kaspersky and RealPlayer pugins, I want them back on, roll back the update

Latest "security" update to Firefox 5.0 has disabled Kaspersky and RealPlayer plugins. I want these back on. They are needed, the so-called security fluffyware update is not.
I need the update rolled-back!

I managed a temporary work-around by re-installing Firefox 4.0
Firefox 4.0.1 was no good because it automatically updated to Firefox 5.0
Fortunately I had saved the installers to disc in April/May 2011, they are not available from Mozilla - and they should be!
I had to turn off the automatic update and install feature, this is what caused the problem in the first place. This is a dangerous feature to let loose.
All updates should be thoroughly tested that they do not disable important security and other add-on features, or should wait until suitable updated add-ons are available. Kaspersky and RealPlayer are important main-stream add-ons, not trivia. This is a classic violation of software control in design.
The latest Firefox 5 "Security Update" urgently needs to be rolled-back across the board and fixed before re-applying.

  • Installed Lion, where are disabled programs and how do I get them back?

    Hi there,
    I installed Lion and dropbox was removed by Lion and I don't know how to uninstall.
    where did it go? I deleted dmg file
    I know it was disabled but how do I uninstall it (:::??? where is it??? ) and then is new dropbox working?

    Hi  Pondini
    Thank you.
    The support file told me where my old Dropbox app was --  so I deleted it.
    It was in a root directory <incompatible apps> or something like that
    Next I downloaded the LION OS friendly version from the official dropbox forum and installed.
    found the compatible version via search on google here:
    http://www.google.com/search?q=forum+dropbox+lion+2011
    It installed easily and it seems to be working. uploading is slow, however.
    well, it's working and that's good.
    everything came back as good as new.
    Best to you

  • Can someone please tell me the default Firefox settings for Fonts and sizes (the advanced font settings, too)? I started playing around with mine and now I just want them back to normal, but there's no reset button for fonts, just the zoom features. Help!

    Under "Firefox," "Preferences," and then "Fonts and Colors" there is a setting that I would like to know the default for, as well as all of those that you see when you select the "Advanced" button for Fonts.

    You can see the defaults in a screenshot in this KB article: [[Some text shows up bold after upgrade]]<br />
    You can check the font setting in: Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced
    <br />
    Default Font: Times New Roman (16)
    <br />
    Fonts for : Western
    <br />
    Proportional: Serif (16)
    Serif : Times New Roman
    Sans-serif : Arial
    Monospace : Courier New (13)

  • HT1848 I purchased alert tones in itunes and updated my itunes.  Now my alert tones do not show up, although if I were to go re-purchased those items, it says I already purchased them.  Where do I find those tones and how do I get them back into my phone?

    I purchased many alert tones in itunes and then updated my itunes.  Now my alert tones do not show up, although if I were to go re-purchase those items, itunes says I already purchased them.  Where do I find those tones and how do I get them back into my phone without having to repurchase????  This is so frustrating!  Please Help!

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • After updating to iOS 8 all of my files in Pages are gone!!!! Where are they? And how do I get them back?

    After updating my iPad to iOS 8 all my files in Pages and Numbers are gone!!! Where are they and how do I get them back?

    If you didn't configure Windows Phone backup option or use VZW Backup Assistant then all is lost.
    If you did go with Windows Phone native backup and you use an Outlook account you should find your photos and videos on OneDrive.  I'm not sure how much VZW Backup Assistant backs up but you would need to start a restore from that software and see what's preserved.
    With any OS installs/updates a backup is always best to first.

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

    Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.

    Some MacBook Pro versions cannot be upgraded past 10.6.8; others are maxed out at 10.7.5. newer models can go all the way to 10.10. So it is important to know exactly what version you have--there may be close to 40 variants produced since the MB made its debut in 2006.

  • I just downloaded the new iOS 5.0 and did all of the backup prompted steps beforehand, but I can't figure out how to get all of my apps and music back on my iPhone. Where did they go and how can I put them back on my iPhone?

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    You can change a preference to make tabs open
    # at the end of all open tabs
    # immediately after the current tab.
    See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
    *Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
    *If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
    *Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
    *Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
    *Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
    *Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

  • My iPhone 5 was restored from backup, and while it was restoring everything else all my pictures slowly went from 900 to none. where did they go and how do I get them back?

    My iPhone has been acting very strange lately and the only way to get it to turn on and function is to restore it. I restored it from a backup of my phone before I restored it. I was mostly worried about my pictures. I was relieved to see them all there,
    until the number of photos in my camera roll and other albums began to go down. soon enough, all the pictures I had restored were deleted. where did they go and how can I get them back?

    Hi bluegrandpanash,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you backed up your iPhone to iCloud before updating the software, first try the steps under "Restore from an iCloud backup" in this article to recover your data:

  • I just purchased an external disk drive to store my pictures.  I want to keep the last 12 months of pictures on my iMac and move the rest to the new external drive.  As new pictures are added I want them to be put on the iMac internal drive.  How?

    I just purchased an external disk drive to store my growing number of pictures.  I want to keep the last 12 months of pictures on my iMac and move the remaining pictures to the new external drive.  As I take more pictures I want them to be put on the iMac internal drive.  Every 3 to 6 months I would then move some additional pictures to the external drive.  I am nuervous about losing any of the pictures and want to make sure I follow the proper procedure.  What is the right way to handle this?
    Thanks.

    Here's one way to do what you want:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    Now you have two full versions of the Library.
    3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
    Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
    Some Notes:
    As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
    You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using  iPhoto Library Manager

  • Unable to delete email from trash bin.  How do I do this?  If I select and chose delete, it doesn't.  What am I doing wrong?  My grand daughte is using my iPad and I don't want her to see some of the mail there.

    Unable to delete email from trash bin.  How do I do this?  If I select and chose delete, it doesn't.  What am I doing wrong?  My grand daughte is using my iPad and I don't want her to see some of the mail there.

    There are two ways that should work. When you are in the trash folder, you can swipe on the email in the list - left to right - and a red Delete button should pop up. Or you can select - Edit - at the top of the list of messages and then select the message and tap delete.
    Not sure exactly how this works - but if you have restrictions enabled - especially since you let your grandchild use the device - that may be restricting what you can do in the mail app. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions. If you have it set to on - turn it off or see if you have mail restricted.
