Stop the constant pop-ups telling me to get Firefox 5. Something I use all the time is not compatible with it so I do not want 5.0. I get a box about every hour.
Actually there are two things I use a lot that are not compatible with Firefox 5. I did switch to it and discovered the big problem, so I had to go back to my previous Firefox. One of them that I use constantly for my passwords is Roboform -- I don't remember which one but one of the most recent. I get a box in the middle of my computer about once an hour saying that I should switch to Firefox 5. It is driving me CRAZY. How can I make it stop?
Also, who has to make Roboform and Firefox 5 compatible?
Every add-on developer is responsible for updating their add-on as Mozilla releases new versions of Firefox. Check with Roboform for an update for their Firefox add-on.
You can use the Add-on Compatibility Reporter to try and "fix" that other add-on. <br />
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ <br />
ACR has worked with every 4.0 extension that I have tried it with on Firefox 5.0 - but there may be some add-ons where it won't work, and the add-on has to actually be modified by the original developer.

Currently using version 3.6.27 as the updated versions are not compatible with my low vision software called Zoomtext. I constantly get Firefox asking me to upgrade. How can I get it to stop asking me to upgrade. (I have tried each upgrade and they are all incompatible with Zoomtext.
Go to '''Options''' window > '''Advanced''' panel > '''Update''' tab > '''Firefox updates '''> click '''Never check for updates (not recommended: security risk)''', click '''OK''' to save it, exit firefox and restart it.
see for more info: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel#w_update-tab Options window - Advanced panel - Update tab]
BUT you see the warning : Warning: If you select this option, you will not receive '''critical security updates that may keep you safe online''' unless you frequently do a '''manual check for updates'''.
thank you
Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem. -
Is there a way to remove items from the list without disabling the pop-up. A "Never Show this Option Again" button or and edit option to delete them would be great.
[email protected]Click here and follow the instructions, or if you'd rather use removal software, download and run Adware Medic. The second link is a direct download; if it gives you an error message, see this page.

I keep getting a message to say my start disc is full and I cant understand why. I dont have a lot of things saved on it and it affecting the operating of my laptop ie, freezing/wont download new mail.
Anyone had this issue before? Any ideas whats going on?
ThanksFirst, that's not Local Snapshots -- if there was only 200 MB free, any Local Snapshots had been deleted long before (they're automatically deleted to keep your drive below 80%).
If it starts shrinking rapidly again, see Where did my Disk Space go?
There are lots of possibilities, but your symptoms sound a bit like one (or both) of these:
• Something going wrong sending thousands of messages to your logs (per the yellow box in the above link). You'll need to fix whatever that is as well as delete the old log files.
• An app (or apps) with a memory leak, making OSX use ridiculous amounts of virtual memory (not listed in the link). While the space is shrinking, select Go > Go to Folder from a Finder menubar, then type /var/vm in the prompt. That will produce a list of your swap files. Those are created as needed; the first two are 67 MB, then each additional file is double the size of the previous one, so they can get pretty large. They're deleted and started over after a Restart.
(There's probably also a sleepimage file there the same size as your installed RAM. That's normal.) -
After the latest upgrade to 3.whatever, Firefox asked if I'd like to upgrade to 4.0. I said yes, assuming (since Firefox has always been compatible before) that it'd install and work. It didn't. Why? Because Firefox is no longer supporting OSX 10.4, apparently. This should probably be noted SOMEWHERE so that trusting people like me don't screw up our existing Firefox.
I looked for a link to the system requirements page before I downloaded to my PowerPC Mac, but I couldn't see it anywhere.
However, I saw that Mozilla was bragging about supporting Windows XP whereas the new IE 9 did not. One would assume that if Mozilla was bragging about supporting that old Windows platform, they would also support a Mac platform of the same vintage.
I did not assume wisely. I am very disappointed in the Mozilla team.
For the record, I am running the latest version update of Leopard (10.5.?) on my PowerBook G4. -
iphone 3g not working because of uncompatible update, what should i do?
There is no way to update a 3G to iOS 4.3.x using approved Apple procedures (meaning using iTunes), so presumably you used a non-approved procedure to do it. You may now have an iBrick, but you can try to restore it to a supported version using iTunes and DFU mode. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. If this fails there may still be a way, but you won't find it in this forum. You need to try some iPhone hacking sites.

My contacts deleted repeatedly every two days. It's seems that it's happen because some problem with my iCloud. Suddenly the icloud pop-ups to enter a password. What could it be?
iCloud is not compatible with Snow Leopard, that is your problem.
A quick way out is to purchase Soho Organizer which is compatible, even when running on Snow Leopard, it will correctly handle Contacts and Calendars from iCloud. $100, 2 user license.

There is a free trial if you want to try it. -
Yesterday, since I downloaded the latest version 3.6.6, every time firefox opens and when I click on something, I get multiple error windows that say "ERROR: Security Manager Vetoed Action". I can't hardly use if anymore because of all the window pop-ups. What can I do? Can I go back to an older version?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I downloaded version 3.6.6 yesterdayhello, when this is happening after you've already updated firefox with your admin account, try to delete the ''updates'' folder and ''active-update.xml & updates.xml'' within the %localappdata% folder of your restricted account like it is described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_Update#Software_Update_not_working_properly
