Tabs just keep rolling across my screen endlessly; update never gets installed. Have selected free download many times with same result. Firefox follows up with a message that my version is out of date but I can't get the update to completely install.

<blockquote>
Firefox 34.0.5 is not doing the blocking as it is due to the blocklist. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/
Adobe Reader '''10.0 to 10.1.5.*''' has been blocked for your protection.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p158 (Blocked on October 5, 2012)
You were looking at another blocklist page which was https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p156 posted on same day.
The https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ is not always accurate or reliable (needs to be manually updated) as Adobe has not been keeping the Adobe products versions to check for updated on that page as the recent Flash updates on December 9 has shown.
It is however accurate when it says versions in Plugins panel of Addons Manager is outdated.
There is Adobe Reader 11.0.10 though it seems like Adobe still provides 10.1.4 at http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/ yet newer versions are at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=10&platform=Windows
</blockquote>
James, why does the Firefox addon page link to the 9.5 "blocked for your protection" page instead of the 10.5 blocked page? Is that a mistake/failure to update on Adobe's part? That seems like something that should be controlled on the Mozilla side, since it has the 10.5 blocked page in existence as well. Should someone be notified that it's giving the wrong page to people?
The adobe update you linked to made it stop saying it's out of date, but what about the Java Development Toolkit? (As pictured in attached image #3). How should I go about getting that up to date?

  • Can't run videos on Safari, only on Foxfire.  On Safairi I get a message that Adobe Flash is out of date, but I can't update-it won't take ID or PW.

    I can't run videos using my Safari browser, only on Foxfire.  On Safari when I try to run a video, I get a message that says my Adobe flash player is out of date and to download new adobe flash.  However, when I try to run the Adobe Flash player installer, it won't take my Apple ID and PW.  I tried creating an Adobe PW and ID, but that doesn't work either.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    it should require the name & password for an admin account on your computer - not an 'apple id' or adobe one...
    where are you downloading Flash from - here ?
    What does Safari say in Help - Installed Plug-Ins for the Flash version ?

  • I have downloaded the new vesion of firefox twice yet still keep getting the message that my version is out of date and unprotected

    I have followed the download instructions twice, told my download was complete, yet still seem to get the old version with the message to download the new version so I'm going around in circles

    '''Thank you TonyE''' - I really appreciate your help. The solution for me was to go to the Help menu and select "check for updates" - this worked with no problems. What doesn't work, however, is to click on "update now" on the older version - when I did this I kept going round in circles getting nowhere!
    So thanks again and best wishes to you

  • I'm running V7.0, but when I launch Firefox, a page comes up that this version is out of date followed by a second normal page

    I'm running V7.0, but when I launch Firefox, a page comes up with a heading "Almost there!" followed by a message that this "version is out of date". Then a second normal tab/page of the browser opens.
    Yes I close the first tab but it has become a source of irritation since I installed V7.0

  • I got data, but i can't use the internet today from  my iphone 4

    i got data, but i can't use the internet today from my iphone 4
    it says "could not activate cellular data network
                you are not subscribed to a cellular data service"

    Hello - This isn't a response since I have the EXACT problem.  I paid "MyTechHelp" $100 because they said they could fix it and they couldn't.  I've narrowed my understanding to this:
    1.  The phone does not need to be jailbroken
    2.  Plug the phone into iTunes and back up the phone then restore and it will be Unlocked. I got a message from iTunes saying congratulations "your phone is unlocked"
    3.  Don't pay to unlock or jailbreak ..I wasted $200 already doing that
    4.  The APN needs to be reset to your carrier ... If I figure out how I'll respond soon
    5.  I tried unlockit.co.nz and that doesn't work

  • Listing order and dates of my photos have all changed and now it is a mess in my photo library! I tried to list them again by date, but it didn't fix the problem. What to do?

    Listing order and dates of my photos have all changed and now it is a mess in my photo library! I tried to list them again by date, but it didn't fix the problem. What to do?

    If your preferences keep getting messed up try this:   make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    Happy Holidays

  • I have a slow startup or login, with numerious spinning wheels. Sometimes after a long ti,e I can sign into the computer and sometimes it just fails to startup or login. I have a MacBookPro OS X 10.7.5 from 2011

    I have a slow startup or login, with numerious spinning wheels. Sometimes after a long ti,e I can sign into the computer and sometimes it just fails to startup or login. I have a MacBookPro OS X 10.7.5 from 2011. It became more serious recently as I think I might have let my battery run out I also tried to download the operating system to reinstall it but it allways stops around 1.4 GB out of 1.7 then the whell starts again.

    Keep the MBP attached to the power adapter.
    First try SMC and PRAM resets:

    Then try to boot the MBP in recovery (OPTION key down) and select the recover partition.  Select Disk Utility>First Aid and verify and repair the HDD.

  • My iphone 5 says that it's connected to home wifi but I can't access the internet

    We just got Comcast Xfinity internet installed and I have no idea if that's the problem (or if it's because our wifi does not require a password) but my iPhone 5 (and my boyfriend's) will connect to our home network wifi but when I try to use the internet, it gives me the message that "Safari cannot open the page because the server has stopped responding" or something to that effect. I have tried: 1) Forgetting the network and re connecting 2) Resetting network settings 3) Changing from DHCP to Static and back 4) changing the DNS number and 5) Calling AT&T Support (no luck there, either). The tech person did suggest (as weird as it sounds) that the fact that my wireless router does not have a password might be the problem and that once I password protect it, it could help. No idea.... Please help!

    I figured it out! We have a modem (the new one that was given to us when we signed up with Comcast) and a wireless router. The network names on the two are different, so I called Comcast and they confirmed that the new Comcast modem puts out a wireless signal and that our network is connected to that one, not the old wireless router. So I checked to see if that network was available to connect to on my iPhone and it was! I entered the new password, forgot the old network, and it works!! Thanks for the suggestion to call Comcast!

  • TS1398 I have connected my iPad 2 to my Mac Air over blue tooth.  Booth say they are connected to each other.  But I can not access the internet on the IPAD.  I can connect over blue tooth from my iPhone to my iPad with no issue.  Any thoughts?  Thank you

    I am trying to connect my Ipad 2 to my Mac Air over bluetooth.
    I can connect them to each other, and both machines say they are connected over bluetooth.
    However I can not access the internet on the Ipad...says it is not connected to the internet.
    Does anyone know if you can fix this?
    THank you

    Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work.  Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
    Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
    Et voila.... everything is back in working order,

    Help
    I have tried to send a big message that now seems to be stuck. The outbox has disappeared so there's no way of deleting it.  How can I access the outbox to get rid of it?

    I clicked on an add for Firefox that appeared on my in box. Up came a window saying that I can't access Firefox from my IPad. I can't get rid of this window as there is no x or Done feature.
