Updated & installed 26. still have 24 with 56.4 mb of info on computer

I updated to 26 without problems I thought. Looked around to clean out old files and programs I don't use anymore and saw that I had 2 firefox's on here. I saw a post similar about update 15, but that was a bug/glitch and it was actually deleted. This I don't believe is and I need to know if there is a fix for this later on or If I should delete it and 26 should be ok with all info/bookmarks/passwords etc.. safe. If there was something in between like 25 I either didn't do it or didn't like it and got rid of it. There were a few updates that were, well not to my liking. Either way, please let me know I like to keep my computer as clutter free as possible. Thanks!

It is likely that only one Firefox version is installed and that is the latest version that you currently use.<br />
The other entry that is still present in the Control Panel > Programs is likely an orphaned entry that hasn't been removed during an update and uninstalling such a version will remove the current Firefox release leaving you with no Firefox version.
If you are comfortable with the registry editor then you can remove Mozilla Firefox entries that no longer apply in the Uninstall registry key.<br />
If you have a 64 bit Windows version then inspect this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox (????)
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    Can not update iTunes because I have iMac with 10.5.8 . How I will sync my iphone 6.0 with an older version of iTunes on my iMac???? There is no update for the software of my iMac and no update for the iTunes.... So how can I sync????

    Requirements for iPhone 5:
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.7 or later
    The highest version of iTunes you can install is 10.6.3 which will not sync with the iPhone 5.

    The person I spoke with at 1-800-MY-APPLE gave me totally different info...she said the iPhone 5 would in fact sync with the older version of iTunes and that I could restore from my previous iPhone 4 backup and also bring in my music that way.  Hmmm....
    I'm inclined to go by the published specs, but now I have to jump thru a bunch of hoops I wasn't expecting to.

    I still have problems with getting my website online. I have defined my server. Then I did the test and there was a connection via FTP. I put my files on the external server and there is a connection with the external server. But when I check to see my website online (with Firefox, Explorer, Chrome browser) I always get the message 'Forbidden, You don't have permission to access / on this server.' Can somebody help me please? I have to get my website online..Thank you!

    Hello Els,
    it's well known, that in all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed Troubleshooting (I see Nancy#s smile already).
    To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
    To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
    Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
    And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
    http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
    Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
    http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
    Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
    Good luck!
    Hans-Günter
    P.S.
    Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

    I want to update my IWorks which I have downloaded with another Apple ID in this same computer. What I have to do?

    Update it from the original Apple ID or delete and redownload the applications when signed into another one; the second option may require repurchasing them.

    I presume that you mean that the switches do not light up as appropriate when you select a Patch in MS?
    If so, in Layout Mode, select each of the buttons in turn, and check that they are a) Assigned to the correct MIDI CC number etc, and b) that "Send Value to" has the correct Port selected.

  • Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

    Does anyone still have problems with Premier Pro on Maverick? and is there any known fix?

    I know OSX 10.9 Mavericks introduced a power saving feature called App Nap which is meant to slow down applications that it determins are inactive (or when minimized). This would mostly likely cause problems if you're dynamically linking After Effects comps to your timeline or sometimes exporting to Media Encoder.
    Try disabling App Nap for all your Adobe App files...
    Go to your Applications folder
    Go into individual Adobe app folders (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC)
    Right-click on the Adobe app file (ie. Adobe Premiere Pro CC.app) and select Get Info
    When the info window opens up, add a checkmark beside "Prevent App Nap"
    Restart the application
    This fixed all my performance issues.

    Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
    Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab.  Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos.  Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window.

  • Did I mess up by downloading MacKeeper?  Downloaded last year and today my computer is doing all kind of weird stuff and Mackeeper kept popping up to renew and I did.  Still have problems with my browser and popups!?

    I downloaded MacKeeper last year.  Today my browser is messed up and I am getting popups.  MacKeeper keeps popping up to download, so I updated my subscription-still messed up. Is this malware and if so, why did it show up a year later and after I paid again to update!?

    You installed a variant of the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    This malware has many variants. Anyone else finding this comment should not expect it to be applicable.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.projectx.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.projectx.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.projectx.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/projectx
    /System/Library/Frameworks/v.framework
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select

    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • No windows installed but still have Windows as boot option?

    Hi guys,
    I’ve recently bought a new MBP 15’’ Haswell while trying to install Windows through boot camp, the installation failed, so I tried to remove the partition that was created via boot camp and got an error, had to remove it via disk utility. The process worked well but if I hold option key during start up Windows option still appear along with Macintosh HD and Recovery 10.9.
    My question is, that is happening because I’ve removed the boot camp partition using the disk utility or its supposed to show up, even w/o Windows installed?
    I’ve tried to reset also the NVram and PRAM (cmd + option + p + r) on start up, but Windows option still there. Since it I didn’t have anything on the Macbook still I tried to re-intall the OSX, but still didn’t fix it.
    Please let me know, if its supposed to be like that, Windows to show as boot option even if it isn’t installed, and if not, how to fix it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Tiago

    Allan,
    How to do that? It shows to me a single partition on disk utility. Also, I intent to install Windows again when Apple fix this Boot Camp / Windows 8 problem, that is being reported all over the comunity, do u think that I should format and install OSX again.
    Also if you can guide me how to format everything and install OSX please do so. Because When i tried to format the partition via recovery it gives an error saying that its not possible to mount the partition, something like that.
    Regards,
    Tiago

  • One year later, I still have problems with the 975X PUE

    A year ago, I bought the 975X PUE board and turned out to be one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made when purchasing something computer-related.
    To start with, the board didn't recognize the OCZ memory that I had bought, so I had to change it for some gSkill memory.  That, however, involved a trip to Argentina since at the time it was very hard to get DDR2 memory @ 800 Mhz here in Uruguay.  I had also complained about how the temperature monitor was unreliable and problems booting the computer.
    I still have those problems, but I learned to live with it since no major problems arised.  Sure, I'd have to boot three to six times just to get it running, but hey, no big deal.
    Later, I decided to go for RAID1 and surprisingly, it worked so I had no new complaints.
    However, lately something new has been happening.  The computer seems to reboot randomly and without warning.  This had happened before when lightning struck nearby (I blamed it on electro magnetic something) but now it happens all the time and I can't find a solution.  I leave the computer on during the night and in the mornings, I come to find that it has rebooted when I was sleeping.
    Here's what I have:
    MSI 975X PUE (7.1083006)
    INTEL E6600
    GSKILL 4 GB DDR2 800 Mhz RAM
    WD 320 GB 7200 RPM
    2x WD 500 GB 7200 RPM (RAID1)
    NVIDIA 8800 GTS
    Windows Vista 32 bit
    PSU Biswal 780W 30A +12V
    I've looked over the latest firmware thread that used to be a sticky on here and noticed that everything else seems to be beta.  MSI never released something better for this board?  Here's that thread: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=99818.0
    The only thing that I could think of for these random reboots is that maybe the unreliable temperature sensors fool the computer and make it seem like the CPU is a lot hotter than it actually is.  I've fired up Everest and right now, with only Firefox and a couple of IM clients running, CPUs are at 50 and 54 degrees celcius.  Taking into account that the case is open and I'm in an air conditioned room set to 24 degrees celcius and that there's a mini Typhoon on top of the E6600 as well as a couple of fans in the case, these CPU temperatures are nearly impossible.
    What's going on with this?  Can anyone help me out?

    Quote from: daiver on 04-January-08, 21:59:50
    Ok, lets say my PSU is degraded. That solves my spontaneous rebooting issue.  How about everything else?
    I still have to boot my PC 3-6 times to get it to start.  Temperature monitor still sucks as well.
    Is 7.1 the latest official firmware for this high-priced mobo?
    Daiver the biswall brand is a very cheap one, I think you should buy a trusted PSU. In Argentina you can find many brands, like Topower and Power Cooler, that are good PSUs and at a fair price.
    The latest bios for this mother is 7.7, but some users find it not so good as 7.6. I use 7.6 and works perfect.

  • HT3771 set up for printing with HP Designjet 500ps (Using Mac os 10.4.11 Printer is set up correctly showing on Mac-Updates installed but still won't print-Printer shows TIME OUT)

    Set up for HP Designjet 500ps using Mac os x 10.4.11 Does any one know where to upload
    Leopard os x 10.5 The printer will not print until I have the updated software. Ebay sell the
    disc on their auction site, but only on disc not a download which is more convenient & faster
    to get in a hurry.The software installed in the mac is working the way it should & showing up
    as it would but it seems as though there is a driver that's needed. The results in any articals
    that I have read suggest you don't need any drivers if you use HP EasyPhotoSoftware installed. 

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here, not "Apple Inc."
    You might have better a response to your questions by posting them in the OS X 10.4 Tiger forums: https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.4_tiger
    or in the PowerMac forums:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/desktop_computers/power_macof
    This forum is for OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Since that version won't run on your PowerMac, you're not likely to get many helpful responses here.
    In any case, I'll try to offer some basic troubleshooting suggestions:
    The PS designation on your printer denotes the PostScript printer language. Is your applications software and current printer driver configured to send PostScript (or HP-GL or HP-PCL or ???)
    Does ANY application print anything (even gibberish) to the printer?
    HP still shows a DesignJet 500 series raster driver for OS X 10.4 Tiger available to download here:

    Does the printer time-out with every program, or just one? Have you tried another cable?
    OS X 10.5 Leopard is no longer sold by Apple. It was never sold as a download, sold only on CD/DVD disc. Discs might still be available for purchase on eBay.
    OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" is the oldest version of OS X still sold by Apple, and it too is available ONLY on CD/DVD for $20, but it will not run on your PowerMac, because Snow Leopard requires an Intel processor: os x snow leopard requirements
    HP DesignJet 500 basic printer documentation is available as a pdf document and downloadable file here: http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/psi/manualsResults?sp4ts.oid=2 5301&ac.admitted=1391720518005.876444892.199480143
    How is the printer connected to the computer? Are you using a USB interface, a Centronics 'Parallel' interface, or a JetDirect network interface?
    It appears that the network timeout default for the printer was 30 minutes, but it can apparently be set in the range of anything 30-seconds and longer. The manual notes that some software does not send an 'end of job' postscript marker, so that is the reason for the time-out setting.

  • HT6030 hello I did the mavericks update 10.9.2 but I still have problems with my gmail accounts ... impossible receive and send messages! what can I do please ?.... thanks

    Thanks to help me please

    Thanks for checking in, BDAQua.
    Problem solved.
    In the docs that came with my Powerlogix accelerator card, I found this sentence buried:
    "If you reset the PRAM, the NVRAM code for OS9 compatibility is cleared, so you will have to boot from the Firmawre Update CD and perform this process again in order to boot in OS9."
    The "process" it's referring to is the process of setting up the NVRAM for booting into OS9 from the CD.
    Fortunately, I was able to find the disk, and it worked as expected. I can now, once again boot into OS9.
    Conclusion: My (unadvised) attempt to load Leopard on this old machine apparently reset the PRAM on the accelerator card and cleared the NVRAM code for OS9 boot. Although I did attempt to reset the NVRAM via Open Firmware, it did not reset it on the accelerator card.
    So, thank you BDAQua, for your "Ah yes" . . . that's all I needed to steer me in the right direction.
    Gratefully,
    tupester

  • HT6030 Do you still have problems with Mail in Maverick after the Mail update 1.0

    After the Mail Update 1.0 in Maverick I stil had problems with my passwords and with syncing my mail acoounts (google, icloud and my provider), Finally I removed Avast Antivirus and ..... all my problems are gone. Everything is working fine now. Avast is incompatible with Apple's new mail client!!!

    Hello is anyone from Adobe out there? Is anyone from Adobe monitoring the forum? The 1.6 update has stopped the app from crashing when you were trying the sync function to the creative cloud.
    However, the sync function is not working as it did in the past. If you make a change in an already existing file in the Photoshop touch app and save it, the sync to the creative cloud results in an explanation point instead of a check to the left of the filename. Toggling the sync button on and off doesn't change the exclamation point to a check. The blue line goes across the file as it normally would when syncing but the explanation point remains. As a result, the changed file is not being synced with the creative cloud.
    I am not sure of the exact amount of time it takes, I am guessing about 24 hours. After about 24 hours when you do a sync, the file that had the explanation point to the left of it does change to a checkmark. However, you now have two files. One that reflects the change and has the word conflicted now added to the file name. As well as a file with the same name that doesn't reflect the change and no conflicted added to its file name.
    For me at least the sync function no longer causes the Photoshop touch app to crash. However, the 1.6 update also doesn't sync properly to the creative cloud.
    Making a change to a file in the Photoshop touch app and trying to sync it shouldn't result in the file not being synced or in a conflicted file. Could someone please help me in regard to this issue.
