Site says "Your Firefox is up to date" but I have v11.0 and site has v12.0

Windows 7 Ultimate Service pack 1
Firefox 11.0
When I click on Help|About Firefox|Check for Updates
it says: Updates available at http://www.firefox.com
When I click on this it takes me to
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/
which says: Your Firefox is up to date
But when I click on Systems & Languages on that page,
all the versions shown are 12.0
Why do I get this result?
Should I upgrade|ignore|wait until the next version?
Regards,
Mycroft

I had this same issue with Windows Vista Business 32-bit. I went to Help->About and clicked "check for updates", and it told me there were no updates. I clicked it again, and it told me I was up to date. I restarted Firefox and tried it again and it found the 12.0 update. I have also been having DNS issues where my browser keeps saying that it can't find the server name, but when I click "try again", it's ok. I have a suspicion that the updater will simply tell you there are no updates if it fails to contact the server for any reason. It should say "failed to contact server" instead, but it doesn't under some circumstances.

Software update say "your software is up to date" but i only have 10.4.1

i just got this computer used and I wanted to get the newest itunes update but it says it needs 10.4.9 or newer.
so i click on the apple software update and it searches for a new update then it says "your software is up to date" but about this mac says i only have 10.4.1 and i want the 10.4.11.
What is wrong??? any help will be appreciated!!!

Hopefully you received the computer's original OS X
software packet with install/restore discs within it.
This, and if the computer had been upgraded to a
newer OS X version than the original installer's,
there should also be that retail installer disc, too.
There may be some system parts missing, and a
previous owner may have tried to use Trash to
get rid of private user accounts. If this happened,
there may be issues in the remaining system.
Can you further describe the exact computer model,
build date, and configuration of processor, RAM,
hard drive, so as to tell what it really is? There are
some that look quite a bit alike, but the insides are
often different enough and may have shipped with
other hardware and software.
For some comparative information, you could get &
read through a database from http://mactracker.ca
which would show most every Apple computer made
and their specifications, build date, and model nos.
Good luck & happy computing!

Dear, Apple Teams, when i try to update my Iphone5 it keep saying your softwear is up to date, but still in the old version and how do i up date to the version 7 ?

Dear Apple Teams

Thank you.

Did you change the ID in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID? Tap the old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new one. If not running iOS 6 it will be Settings>Stores>Apple ID.

Since I did the Firefox reset, I try to open my email and it says, Your browser does not accept cookies. I have checked the cookies setting 100 times!

Since I did the Firefox reset, I try to open my email and it says, Your browser does not accept cookies. I have checked and done your suggested setting 100 times!

Note that a reset tries to migrate cookies to the new profile, so if you had previously as problem with cookies then the problem might have been carried over.
If clearing cookies doesn't work then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

How do I keep it from bringing up the Firefox page everyday & saying "Hooray! Your Firefox is up to date"? I don't need to know this everyday...

When Firefox upgrades you usually get the page that says "Hooray! Your Firefox is up to date". Then that's it, until the next upgrade. I keep getting this EVERYDAY, along with the homepage I have bookmarked. I don't need to see this everyday & I see no way to disable it. It comes up even though I have updates and "Check that Firefox is your browser" disabled.

On mozilla's OWN WEBSITE I get the message 'Your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk!" but I just download and installed the latest version?

I have the latest version of firefox to date (10/15/2014 v32) and I still get messages while on various websites (Youtube, Google, Gmail) telling me that Your Firefox is out of date and may contain a security risk.
I even get that message on the support pages of mozilla.org??
I've tried the about:config reset the useragent(s) fix but that doesn't work.
I've tried browsing in safe mode and still get the error.
Why is this False/Positive happening?
Thanks

hello your useragent (the information the browser sends to websites to identify its version) - apparently mistakenly - shows this:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20140923 '''Firefox/4.0.0; xs-A30GTmfXR3o;CkHZPf;'''
probably some sort of unwanted software has overwritten it. please refer to this article in order to reset the user-agent settings in firefox:
[[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]]
in case this does not help, please try to reset the whole browser:

Popup says that firefox is out of date. update to continue

I get a popup when i am on a videopoker site the says."Firefox is out of date. Please update to continue.
Previously i got a popup that said "Flashplayer is out of date. Please update to continue.
The only info i can provide, since i'm no geek, is a (browser/Ip) address i see on the screen. It says 8.29.133.184/browser/firefox. Looking up that # traces it to "Beyond Hosting LLC.
I have run every malware/scan i can find to eliminate this to no avail. All scans come back clean. Ideas ?

Note that you should only update Firefox and plugins via their official web page. 
If you click a link on a pop-up then you may end up with installing malware.

What is the Firefox start page looking for when it tells me I'm not using the most current version and need to update Firefox? The check for updates button says my version is up to date, but the start page disagrees. Is there a setting I need to adjust?

Okay: My start page is the one Google provides: http://www.google.ca/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official and frequently it has a note underneath the search box that "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!" But when I check for updates on the About Firefox window, it says my Firefox is up to date. So what is the start page looking for? Is there some setting I need to adjust? Or is this a Google marketing ploy to get me to switch to Chrome?

I tentatively think I have the solution; this is for when the session id value 'thing', in about:config, referred to in other answers is already on the default/rest state.
I am assuming, I don't what to imply certainty in-case there is a value wrong in our browsers, that the problem stems from the fact that our homepage is no longer the default for Firefox.
So, go to 'Options'>'General' and delete the homepage. This will reset it to the new address, which is 'about:home'.
I hope this helps some people.

How do I stop the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading after upgrading to ver. 6.0?

I upgraded from Firefox 3 point something or other (if I could remember exactly, I'd tell you) about 2 weeks ago to version 6.0. Thereafter, Firefox always starts up with two pages; one is a page declaring "Your Firefox is up to Date" and, on another tab, the default home page for Firefox. (the Google one)
It has continued to do that ever since, and I cannot find a way to stop the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading at start-up.
I'm running a pc with WinXP Professional w/Service pak 3.

A suggestion for stopping the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page from loading at startup.
Use MozBackup for this; get it at http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/.
A good user friendly tutorial on it's use can be found at http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/2418/backup-your-mozilla-based-software-with-mozbackup/.
Download MozBackup and read through the howtogeek tutorial.
Exit Firefox.
Open MozBackup and start the procedure.
Follow the procedure except for a part where you RESTORE the profile; in the Components selection window in MozBackup, UNCHECK the "General settings" box (you remember the General tab in the Tools/Options window in Firefox where your homepage info is kept?)
Continue with the procedure to the end.
When you re-open Firefox, you should be getting the Google homepage without the "Your Firefox is up to Date" page.
Go to Tools/Options/Privacy tab. If it looks different than what it used to, ie: you used to have the option to not accept cookies, etc and now you don't, open the drop-down menu in the Hisory portion there and click on "Use custom settings for history", which will provide options for more control.

After update to 10.0.1, firefox is slow to check add-ons and sends me to "Hooray! Your Firefox is up to date.", every time. Please advise.

After update to 10.0.1, Firefox is now slow to check add-ons and sends me to "Hooray! Your Firefox is up to date.", every time. This happens with my PC and Netbook. Please advise.

Hi jeff8478,
You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
If that doesn't work:
# Type about:config in the address bar
# Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
# In the Filter input field type ''startup''
# Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
# Delete the text string and click ''OK''
# Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!

Not sure what exactly you did (or not), but it looks as if you should attempt doing it all again, only this time all right and by the book. Many millions have done so, and sure it'll work for you as well.
If you've indeed purchased ML already, you'll find it exactly there in the App Store: under Purchases.

Wowzah. Not directed at you, but, like ouch!
£15 to have a minor OS refresh and bug fix, from a corporation with $$$ in cash in the bank, seems a bit tight to me. Talk about making Microsoft look generous.. sheesh.
I run 10.8 on my MacBook pro and need 10.8 to run the xcode 5 dev tools on my work mac... I thought it would be a simple download, didn't realise we'd have to pay? Frankly the differences are in no way deserving of any price tag!
Apple - try being more generous, people might like you more instead of just resenting every time we have to deal with you. The only fun bit seems to be walking out the door with the shiny new thing.
