Since updating to version 12, I found that this version was no longer a secure browser.

Whenever I opened Firefox the home page informed me to upgrade to the new version, this i did several times; to no avail. I decided to uninstall all previous Firefox programmes and reinstall. This made no difference and the 'firefox help page' informed me that the browser was no longer secure.
Following a suggestion from your troubleshooting guide I changed my home page, the warnings stopped; but most web sites would not load properly, if at all.

'''You are updated to the latest version (12.0).'''
Your user agent is corrupted by Fast Browser Search (FBSMTWB) and that identifies you as Firefox/3.6.17
see your user agent:

  • Since updating to version of 11.12 of itunes syncing hangs in final stage of sync (finishing sync)

    Since updating to version 11.12 of itunes.  When I sync it goes through stages of sync but at the final 'Finishing Sync' the message just hangs

    I had this problem as well and I heard a solution, tried it and it worked for me.  The issue is that there are apps running in the background when the sync was initiated.  So I unplugged the iPhone from iTunes and closed down any running apps (double-click the home menu button and sweep up each running app until you just see your home page).  Then reconnect the iPhone to iTunes and the sync completed as expected.

  • Jewel case insert does not print properly since new itunes version was installed

    jewel case insert does not print properly since new itunes version was installed. The song list prints all of the line items too close together without space inbetween each song.

    I am having the same issue. If I close itunes and open with a new CD already in the drive, it will find it. But once that CD has been imported and ejected, itunes does not find the newly inserted CD and there is no command to tell itunes to "look" in the CD drive

  • I was on my Iphone 4 and i updated it and then it said that the sim was locked how do i unlock it?

    i was on my Iphone 4 and i updated it and then it said that the sim was locked how do i unlock it?
    i upgraded it to the newest update and it came up sim locked enter three digit number to activate and then on the internet it said to restore it so i did that and now it says Sim locked insert a valid sim with no pin to activate :/

    The ONLY place that can unlock a locked iphone is the carrier to which it is locked ( if they offer this service).
    It sounds as if you may have a hacked/unofficially unlocked iphone and it locked back to the carrier when updated ( as it should if it is hacked).

  • Hi i updated my iphone but it says that This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked. how can i unlock this one?

    Your iPhone was hacked or jailbroken before and through the update it locks back to the original carrier. Only the original carrier can unlock the iPhone. You have to contact them and find out what the procedure you needs to follow.

  • Since updating to version 4.0, Firefox does not automatically complete saved passwords

    Before updating to version 4.0, whenever I clicked the cursor into the username boxes, the username would automatically be there. Once I clicked on it, then the password would automatically fill in. Since the update, this does not happen anymore. So, I'm having to write usernames & passwords down somewhere and type them in myself. Has this automatic feature been defeated in version 4.0? I still have a list of saved passwords, but it's not calling them up automatically like before.

    Do you still see all the names and passwords in the Firefox Password Manager ?
    * Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
    You can check that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
    * You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    * To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    * Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Since updating to Version 26 I am getting a Sidebar opening on certain sites.. I dont want this and cant get rid of it.. seems to be twitter based.. maybe Tt?

    This starts when I load certain pages.. with a sidebar to the left and then goes on to open more tabs at the bottom.. seems to be similar links to sites I am on.. Yahoo eurosport does it as well as a cricket club i belong to...I have been through add-ons and plug ins to see if its there and it doesnt seem to be.. done this very soon after updating to version 26 of firefox and even sometimes puts up a genuine looking 'Update your firefox' box.. which isnt.. i restored my system back and then deleted firefix and realoaded but the problem is persisting.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
