Updating message of firefox keeps popping up and I already updated it
Updating message keeps popping up and I already updated to 5.0 version
Normally warnings are fakes but in your case I am not sure.
Your sytem info aside is indicating you are using Firefox 21, so either you are using an out of date and unsupported version of Firefox, or something is going wrong and Firefox is not reporting the correct information.
When you use the Firefox button and the help option you should get an option about firefox that confirms the version you are using.
Possibly you have security software preventing updates. Have a look at these articles then please post back and confirm what version you are using.

Firefox keeps popping up, saying it's updated, but it's the same version I already have.
Every few hours/days, Firefox will have the little pop-up in the bottom right corner (or the bigger second window) saying that I need to 'Restart Firefox in order to install updates'. The only problem is, there isn't an update, cause it's the same version number. I'm not sure on exactly how often this happens, but it's at least once a day.
Any information will be incredibly helpful, and greatly appreciated. Thanks! :DYou run a Firefox Aurora build (11.0a2) and such a build get updated each day.

If you do not want that then download the current 9.0.1 release and uninstall that Aurora version, but do NOT remove personal data and install the current release.

After upgrading to FF4 problems with flash plugin started, even gif animation keeps lagging. With so much tabs previous version could perfectly manage. I have a 4-core processor, so 64-bit version would be awesome
Because you still have problems with Firefox in safe mode, I think the problem
is with something in the computer. Check that everything is updated. Even
if you are sure it is.

How can I get rid of this message that keeps popping up:
Widevine Media Optimizer Update Available? Don’t know what it is but don’t want it.Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software. -
keep getting a message that firefox is outdated but when trying to update the download is the same version on mac os. The version is 34.0.5 .As soon as I launch the brwswer i get the update message.
hello dbajayo, your useragent (the information the browser sends to websites to identify its version) - apparently mistakenly - shows you're on firefox version 3.6.
probably some sort of toolbar or adware 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]] -
Smart Suggestor keeps popping up and I want to uninstall but cannot find it. It is not in my add-ons, extensions, programs, folders...no where!

The bookmarks sidebar keeps popping in and out. This shifts the screen making it hard to read or write anything. I have gone to "View" but am unable to stop it. The firefox questions don't address this issue.
Did you check if there were extensions installed in that new profile?<br />
Some programs install extensions globally and appear automatically in a new profile.
Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br />

Firefox keeps freezing up and giving me the colorful spinning wheel especially when I'm chatting with a friend of facebook or when i'm listening to music on myspace or even have just two tabs open and it's never done it before but now it just keeps giving me the colorful spinning wheel and i have to force quit and start over.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== May 5th, 2010Hi If you get an error message saying your flash is blocked by firewall or needs updating or similar and you just get the spinning colour wheel try this link
It takes you to Adobe which tells you which ver of flash player you have - you can then see if there is a later ver by clicking on the library and it automatically selects the correct version for you to download.
Worked a treat for me! Good Luck

Ps Don't forget to use a browser other than firefox or you will be there for days. -
How do I eliminate this glitch? Music spontaneously starts, stops, stutters at random and I'm not even using that app. Repeated attempts to pause the song and close the app have no affect. Just keeps popping on and off randomly no matter what I'm doing at the time. I tried double-clicking the Home button which brings up all of the active apps, touched and held the Music icon until all the icons started wiggling, tapped the Close icon in the upper left corner of the Music app to close the app completely, but the app is still open and still randomly stuttering. I did notice that the play button icon flashes in the upper right corner of the screen when this happens and it appears and disappears in concurrence with the Music app stuttering. When the music starts, the icon appears and when it stops, the icon disappears again. When the music stutters on and off, the icon appears and disappears rapidly and in sync with that random glitch. This just started today for no apparent reason. I turned the iPad off, waited 30 seconds and turned it back on. As soon as it was finished starting up, the same music glitch began again immediately. I'm using iOS 6.1.3.
Well, no one seems to have any answers or ideas for me, I'll update what I've been able to accomplish.
I reloaded all 14 disks in the time frame of watching Lord of the Rings on Fri. nite.
Funny thing is, the first disk pulled the info from the online store! Hooray!
Wait-then all the next 13 could find no information online...what the heck is up with that? So I MANUALLY assign each disk a new track # to co-inside with each disk, spent about 2 hours doing that.
But still, itunes tells me my playlist is too large, there's not enough space on the ipod. so I unchecked 1 1/2 disks (I'd listen to 1/2 of disk 1 previously) and voila! there's my ipod full of my book. Finally. But what a lot of bother just to keep things in order! -

Would love to see an update on issues like this.
I have the pioneer avh-3400bh. Prior to iOS6 on my iphone 4, everything worked as it should. Upon updating to ios6 on the 4, and now also with the iphone 5, my head unit will play BT audio, but it receives no track/data information. Using USB, I can no longer use my phone to browse songs, I can only use the head unit control. the phones tell me that an accessory is connected and won't allow me to do anything. Same for the pandora app -

Help Please my Keychain Login keeps popping up and refusing my password.
I don't normally have a login password on boot up but I have not used the login for so long I've forgotten my password.
OK so I used the MacBook 13 Install Disk and reset the password to something more memorable.
Then it advised me to synchronize this with the Keychain Password which I knew nothing about.
So I put in the same password in the keychain password box.
Now when I boot up I get a password box and my user name every time (I'd like to switch that off as I don't need a password, I'm the only user and nobody will steal this MacBook)
But even when I login with my new password, the Keychain Password box keeps popping up and asking for the pass. I type in the one I had set and it tells me that's incorrect. So the box pops up again and again.
Next it came up every time I tried to send or receive email and asked me to log the email password into the Keychain list as well so I did place a tick in that box. But still the Keychain keeps coming up.
Can I switch off all the BootUp adminstrator password boxes so it goes the way it used to when I first got it? Also can I kill off the Keychain thing as it has 18 entries in it that maybe can be scrapped. They're all my chat passwords and email server ones in the list.
I tried a Keychain Verify and Repair in the Applications Utilities and it says all is checking out fine yet it still won't accept what I type in the password box for Keychain. I'm only using a 7 letter password.
Can anyone solve this for me if I follow the list of instructions on how to turn all this password thing off? Hope so.
Thanks
PladoSee if this MacFixit tutorial helps:
Tutorial: Keychain issues; resolving
If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password.
This can be accomplished via the following process:
Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities
Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
Click the "First Aid" tab
Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
Close the Preferences window
Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
Enter your username and password
Click the "Repair" button
Another option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible.
This can be accomplished as follows:
Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting "New Keychain"
You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
First, enable root user.
After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, Keychain may be to blame.
For example, it appears that in some cases, failures in .Mac synchronization transfers are linked to issues with Keychain.
If you are having problems synchronizing data with .Mac servers, you may want to try the following process:
Open System Preferences and access the .Mac pane
Click the "Sync" tab
Uncheck the "Synchronize with .Mac" checkbox
Close System Preferences
Re-open System Preferences and repeat steps 1 and 2
Re-check the "Synchronize with .Mac" checkbox
If the above process does not re-allow synchronization, you may need to leave Keychain synchronization turned off in the "Sync" tab of the .Mac System Preferences pane.
The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.
