Version number of firefox is too high

Hello,
Sorry to touch this topic, but I do have plug-ins, that simply cannot catch up with the speed of firefox versions.
Are there plans to sort of "fake" the version number ot plug-ins?
kind regards

Yup. Go [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/checkcompatibility/?src=ss here]. Beware that some won't/may not work.

  • Where can I find the latest version number in a document in the web? so I can download it with wget to check if the current installed firefox version is up to date and update ir if necessary?

    My problem is that I can't find the latest version number in here http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/win32 as a document, so I can check against "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox\CurrentVersion" and update or not, all this is done by a script. It will be great not have to change the versión number in the script every time there is a new release.
    Thanks

    I think I solved, all I have to do is this:
    //here I download the entire page
    wget.exe http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html -O index
    //here I search for the word curVersion and set a variable with the result, which is "10.0.2"
    for /f "tokens=3 delims=</> " %%A IN ('type index ^| FIND /I "curVersion" ' ) do set latestversion=%%A
    //here I just make sure I get a number
    echo "%latestversion%"
    pause
    Later I check it against the registry and voila! I hope this can help other admins who have the same problem.

  • Firmware version is too high. How uninstall? Correct version where?

    Help! That Firmware thing is driving me nuts. Wish apple would organize the latest upgrades by OS. It’s a maze.
    My iMac DV (blue front slot loading) is OS 9.0.4 (I will upgrade but not right now, too long to explain).
    I had bought a LaCie HD some years ago & made partition with OS 9.0.4, 9.1 to 9.2, it fell, bought another and installed it.
    After much time I found out that to know my version of Firmware I have to look for boot ROM, my system profiler says it’s $0004.19f1 that means probably v 4.19.
    If it’s v 4.1.9 it is too high it needs OS 9.1 and probably happened with I had OS 9.1 on my external HD. My LaCie CD Writer became a nightmare and I don’t dare to use it anymore, maybe it was because of the firmware ….or it might be that Apple CD/DVD Driver can’t exist at the same time as Toast extensions, it’s unclear to me.
    Can’t find the latest firmware version for OS 9.0.4 that will work, or how I can take it off before I install another one. I know v2.4 will work on OS 9.0.4.
    Got: Firewire v2.3.3 - usb v 1.4.2 - CarbonLib v 1.6 - Apple CD/DVD Driver v 1.3.5 player is v2.1
    Help!
    1. What’s the latest Firmware for OS 9.0.4?
    2. Do I have Firmware v 4.1.9?
    3. How do I uninstall Firmware v 4.1.9?
    4. CAN Apple CD/DVD Driver exist at the same time as Toast extensions?
    Thanks very much
    Nicky

    I think that you misunderstood Kappy's point about Mac OS X version.
    What the information about OS X version is telling you is that those are the minimum requirements for the installer which places the firmware update permanently in the ROM on the logic board to run. However, once the firmware has been installed you are free to continue to update your version of Mac OS X for as long as Apple releases them.
    I have an iMac G3 DV+ which has ROM version 4.1.9f1 and is running Mac OS X 10.4.8.
    However, the firmware is backwards compatible as well. You obviously installed the firmware when you were running OS 9.1, but at some time regressed your OS to 9.0.4.
    I think the issues that you are experiencing are related to other issues on your Mac. The folks in the iMac G3 forum should be able to help you sort that out.

  • About Firefox gives no version number.

  • Incorrect version number and installation date of Firefox after upgrading

    My home desktop PC equipped with Mozilla Firefox v4.0 has recently been upgraded to v4.0.1 through an automatic updating. However, as noted from Windows 7 "Programs and Features", the latest version number and its installation date are not correctly shown. The required details refer to the previous v4.0.
    I look forward to having your technical advice as soon as possible.
    Andrew

    Hi, Alan
    Thank you for your prompt response.
    It seems to me that an automatic update of Firefox from v4.0 to v4.0.1 is not detected by Windows 7 > Programs and Features. Firefox > Show Update History and > About show the latest version number with the correct date of installation.
    At last, I re-installed Firefox into the existing version. I am pleased to inform you that Windows 7 shows the correct version number and installation date of Firefox as well as Revo Uninstaller.
    Perhaps, Firefox team would be kind enough to look into the matter. The problem did not happen in the past automatic updates.
    Regards,
    Andrew

  • How can I see the firefox version number in firefox29?

    after updating to firefox29, there is no part named "About" to see the version number or update firefox. please help me. where is it? in previous version whens I clicked on "check for updates" my firefox searched for new updates but now I cant see this part.

    To find out your version, Please go to Menu then click [[Image:Help-29]] which is in bottom and select "About Firefox" Menu.
    I hope now you can see the version.

  • Have followed instructions for displaying Version number. Does not work. I believe "Firefox button" means the gold & blue globe? No "Help" button. Can find no reference anywhere to version number.

    I believe that I have installed v.5 but can find no confirmation anywhere.... till now, when your "educated guess" shows v.5.0.1. Please give me concise instructions for displaying the version number. (For most software packages, "About" works... but not in this case.)
    Thanks.

    I can't think how '''cor-el''''s first advice went wrong. For Windows there is no difference between Fx5.0 and 5.01
    Just to be really sure you can do -
    *Firefox orange button>Help>Troubleshooting Information lists your Fx version, or
    *Options>Advanced>Update>Show update history(little box at the bottom).

  • Why is very high Android app version number required by Play store?

    Hi there,
      We've recently rebuilt a v29 Android viewer app to v30. On trying to upload it Google Play required that the APK version be higher that 4000000 - does anyone know why this might happen? We followed the advice here Digital Publishing Suite Help | Setting version numbers in Web DPS App Builder - our legacy app version number was actually 4; is there some way this could have become 4 million?!
      Thanks,
    Toby

    Did you ever have an app in Google Play that came from Woodwing? They did some interesting calculations to come up with their version code that lead to very large numbers being used.
    Regardless, it really has no impact. Just put in 4000001 for your first submit, and then next time around leave the override checkbox off and App Builder will take care of it from then on.

  • Need to set a higher version number for app store

    Hello,
    I have an update for an app that has been published with the single license. I now need to upload a DPS app with a higher version number than 1.1 for the Apple app store accept the upload.
    Problem: I can't find anywhere to set the app version number.
    (I am not talking about the adobe version number 27/26 but the one that is set in iTunes Connect)
    When I click "create app" and updates it in the manager it generates a new app with a higher number in this sequence: 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.0.3
    But I need to set it manually. Where can I do this?
    Thanks,
    Mikkel

    I googled some more, it seems that it is the Short String Version number and only Adobe can change it...

  • Where do I find the version number of the latest version of Firefox before downloading?

    I must request permission to download Firefox at work and IT needs version number before granting permission. Texas regulatory agencies use Firefox and work only allows microsoft internet explorer. To use the agencies models and reports I need Firefox. The website for downloading does not list the version number. Where do I find the version number of the latest version of Firefox before downloading?

    You can find the latest Firefox 20.0.x release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:

  • Ms word95 to pdf - "security level too high"?

    I'm a brand new user of Acrobat 9.0 (on XP system) - all kinds of problems (including major file crash and loss during 9.0  installation - more on that later). for now, I need to get started immediately on converting some MS Word doc files to pdfs - What I get from 9.0 is the message that "The Security Level is Too High".   If it's referring to the MS word docs, they are unprotected (I've checked and tried several - Word shows they are not protected, and as far as I know, never have been).  They were originally created on a mac with macWord - but were not protected and converted to windows with MacDrive7.  They show in MS Word in good condition and unprotected.  What do I need to do to get them into acrobat and into pdf format? I've also check the knowledge base here and elswhere without any clues except one chap who seemed to be having similar problems (along with serious crashes) using 8.1. Other than that, I'm mistified.
    I've also tried using the context menu 'covert to pdf' method and also creating a new pdf (blank) and inserting them.  In both cases the security message aborted the process.  Need to do this right away. I'm not technically skilled, so if someone can give me some clear instructions I'd be grateful.  - red

    Thank you all for responding so quickly. First, I'll mention the serious message and a warning. DO NOT INSTALL ACROBAT 9.0 IN AN ENVIRONMENT WITH WORD 7.0 (or any old(er) MS Word version before 2k).  The consequences are ghastly, including the deletion of half or more of your program files (including your email clients, av software and other primary programs), the corruption of your browser, registry (including restore points) and other not so nice events - worse than most bad viruses.  That's a problem Adobe and I will probably be taking a look at next week. Mean time, they indicate that they are going to add the matter to their KB and elswhere so that users have a heads-up on the issue.
    As for the conversion problem from Word 7.0 .doc to .pdf - Bill, you just about nailed it. It was, indeed, a problem that could be circumvented by going to the printer dialog and setting the printer to  'Adobe pdf file' (something a novice wouldn't think of, nor line tech-support for that matter.).  As far as Word/pdf 'printer' is concerned you're just printing the file. However, as I understand things, that's how Adobe attaches the Word documents - It does it through the printer interface. Once that setting is changed to 'Adobe pdf printer' the file is simply picked from the print queue (or before) and loaded into A9. Save it from A9, and the job is done.  So, Bill, If Adobe hadn't found the answer, I do believe you would have been telling me exactly how to do it after a few more posts. The credit, though, goes to Neo Johnson, tech-support supervisor in New Delhi.  The last two days (almost 9 hours of phone time) were spent with various tech-support agents at Adobe; but,  he was the one who finely thought about the interaction between A9 and Word and figured it out.
    Ok -that's the brief.  The rest is a little history/background for whomever is interested (skip, otherwise - not important).  The problem begins with failure to install - first, setup can't find the msi file - it was there, and I browsed it, so that was solved. Then 'invalid licensing - process stopped' messages appear. That was a little tougher and http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405970.html  and some other articles had me doing repair, reinstall, and other complex (for me) procedures. One of the problems was that flexnet had failed to install, which was a stumper for me (I couldn't find it to download separately - barely knew what it was/did - and finally understood that Adobe was supposed to install it. After that,  I did several uninstalls, to no effect. Finally I did a few moderate and then deep uninstalls (with Revo) and several reinstalls. Things got progressively worse.  On one reboot, my desktop came up and all the program icons were broken links.  I examined targets and such and then went to my 'program files' directory. To my horror, nearly all my primary program (including thunderbird email client, AVG etc.)  files had disappeared. The folders were simply empty.  Firefox still loaded, but the tabs were non functional.  Several checks and some light disc analysis indicated the files vanished. No trace. However, my document folders and data were intact (also backed-up). I went to restore and found that all the old restore points (including the one's Revo sets before uninstalling) were gone.  If it had been a virus, it couldn't have done a better job at making a mess of things.  At that point, I knew the registry had been toasted and I was facing a complete OS reinstall.  Instead, I opted for reinstalling some of the critical programs (and because the document files appeared to be intact).  After the first few - thunderbird, firefox etc.  - I was relieve to find that they were picking up on the old settings and restoring themselves to their previous states. I still have a number of these to do - and a few must be re-configured. But that's going ok. 
    Then the saga of Adobe, several phone calls; several times the phone connection was cut off and I had to call again and start over from the beginning with a new person. The matter always had to be esculated to the next tier - more time, more cues, no solutions.  They went over the firefox settings, the adobe settings. They were puzzled about the broken links.  Attempts to open doc files (after a fresh install of winword) were resulting in 'invalid win32 application'. All kinds of problems made progress difficult.  We cleared up the 'invalid....' messages by reparing the file associations (in XP folder options) and then opening the docs in Word and resaving them as something else.  It was a labor.  Finally, there was simply no answer except, like the post here, Word 7 is simply too old and uses different scripting. The only solution was to either buy (ugh, ouch!) Word 2007 (and hope that it would load them and save them in A9 useable form) or, try installing Word2k (which I have) and processing them through that; and, then using Acrobat 8.x to load those and save the pdfs for A9 to use.  However, when Adobe said they could not provide me with a free (even trial) version of 8.x to do the job - licensing problems etc. -- It seemed like a really ugly solution.  Finally, I'm begging Adobe to give me a free copy of 8.x and in steps Neo.  He can't provide the free copy, but he asks a few questions himself.  We go to Adobe and reset some of the security settings (something other agents didn't know or think of). No dice - still can't load the docs.  But then he says, Open up Word. Ok.  load the file and then hit 'print' - ok, the print dialog comes up. 'Now,' he says, 'open the properties and see what printers are listed.'  Ok I do that, and I'll be... 'Adobe pdf printer' is among them.  "Just what I thought," he said, Adobe was hooking up with word, but didn't have its printer to attach." So we set 'Adobe pdf' as the printer and lo and behold, the docs loaded into Adobe as pdfs.  End of that story. (so bill, you had it too - wish you had answered the phone in the first place!)
    Clean up.  So, there's a few simple solutions, I think (though i'm no techie and you folks will certainly have better ideas). First, I don't buy the story that early versions of Word are either 1) unsupported by MS or, 2) nobody uses them, as valid reasons why not to fix the problem of the "unloadable" docs.  I figure there are at least a couple of aproaches and easy patches that will correct the matter. One is from the Word  side - to is to set the current printer setting to use 'Adobe printer', get the file and then reset the printer back to what it was - default.   The other is to patch A9 to detect legacy source applications and bypass things that would normally make the file unloadable, unless, of course, they were actually protected or, read only files. In that case, Adobe could simply inform the user to 'unprotect' them, the same as it now does with its   'Security Setting too High' message for later versions.  I'm sure there are even better ways. But, that would fix things as far as file loading and conversion.
    As to the installation and crash problems - those need to be addressed. Even if its only a few dozen people that might have the same problem, it needs 1) to be given as a noticable warning and keyword in Adobe documents (which now simply indicate that it can process .doc files);  2) it needs to be examined to  insure systems that have Word 7.x or older can install without problem, and certainly without harming their system.  Adobe has a good reputation and does a good job. That's worth protecting with all customers, even if Marketing can't quite see why and the bean counters can't find much profit in the task.  It's what I expect from professionals and to do less certainly subtracts from Adobe's standing. That should be worth a great deal, I would imagine.
    Anyway, thanks folks - got to get some sleept, and then get those pdfs done and sent to people who are waiting for them. - best to you all, red.

    Exception: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file

    Hi, thank you for the reply.  However, java is definitely enabled on my computer, on all my browsers.  In fact, if I go to the SUN website and run the java test, I get that all is OK.
    I think it may have something to do with the .class (maybe in .jar-file) compiled with a higher version of java than the virtual machine trying to run it. 
    The example I found (google search) is .class-file that is compiled with JDK 6 and I am trying to run it with 1.4 JVM.
    There is some software error going on somewhere... but I do not know enough to fix it.
    Many thanks for all your help

  • PGC...data rate too high

    Hallo,
    message
    nunew33, "Mpeg not valid error message" #4, 31 Jan 2006 3:29 pm describes a certain error message. The user had problems with an imported MPEG movie.
    Now I receive the same message, but the MPEG that is causing the problem is created by Encore DVD itself!?
    I am working with the german version, but here is a rough translation of the message:
    "PGC 'Weitere Bilder' has an error at 00:36:42:07.
    The data rate of this file is too high for DVD. You must replace the file with one of a lower data rate. - PGC Info: Name = Weitere Bilder, Ref = SApgc, Time = 00:36:42:07"
    My test project has two menus and a slide show with approx. 25 slides and blending as transition. The menus are ok, I verified that before.
    First I thought it was a problem with the audio I use in the slide show. Because I am still in the state of learning how to use the application, I use some test data. The audio tracks are MP3s. I learned already that it is better to convert the MP3s to WAV files with certain properties.
    I did that, but still the DVD generation was not successful.
    Then I deleted all slides from the slide show but the first. Now the generation worked!? As far as a single slide (an image file) can not have a bitrate per second, and there was no sound any more, and as far as the error message appears AFTER the slide shows are generated, while Encore DVD is importing video and audio just before the burning process, I think that the MPEG that is showing the slide show is the problem.
    But this MPEG is created by Encore DVD itself. Can Encore DVD create Data that is not compliant to the DVD specs?
    The last two days I had to find out the cause for a "general error". Eventually I found out that image names must not be too long. Now there is something else, and I still have to just waste time for finding solutions for apparent bugs in Encore DVD. Why doesn't the project check find and tell me such problems? Problem is that the errors appear at the end of the generation process, so I always have to wait for - in my case - approx. 30 minutes.
    If the project check would have told me before that there are files with file names that are too long, I wouldn't have had to search or this for two days.
    Now I get this PGC error (what is PGC by the way?), and still have no clue, cause again the project check didn't mention anything.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Christian Kirchhoff

    Hallo,
    thanks, Ruud and Jeff, for your comments.
    The images are all scans of ancient paintings. And they are all rather dark. They are not "optimized", meaning they are JPGs right now (RGB), and they are bigger then the resolution for PAL 3:4 would require. I just found out that if I choose "None" as scaling, there is no error, and the generation of the DVD is much, much faster.
    A DVD with a slide show containing two slides and a 4 second transition takes about 3 minutes to generate when the scaling is set to something other than "None". Without scaling it takes approx. 14 seconds. The resulting movies size is the same (5,35 MB).
    I wonder why the time differs so much. Obviously the images have to be scaled to the target size. But it seems that the images are not scaled only once, that those scaled versions of the source images are cached, and those cached versions are used to generate then blend effect, but for every frame the source images seem to be scaled again.
    So I presume that the scaling - unfortunately - has an effect on the resulting movie, too, and thus influences the success of the process of DVD generation.
    basic situation:
    good image > 4 secs blend > bad image => error
    variations:
    other blend times don't cause an error:
    good image > 2 secs blend > bad image => success
    good image > 8 secs blend > bad image => success
    other transitions cause an error, too:
    good image > 4 secs fade to black > bad image => error
    good image > 4 secs page turn > bad image => error
    changing the image order prevents the error:
    bad image > 4 secs blend > good image => success
    changing the format of the bad image to TIFF doesn't prevent the error.
    changing colors/brightness of the bad image: a drastic change prevents the error. I adjusted the histogram and made everything much lighter.
    Just a gamma correction with values between 1.2 and 2.0 didn't help.
    changing the image size prevents the error. I decreased the size. The resulting image was still bigger than the monitor area, thus it still had to be scaled a bit by Encore DVD, but with this smaller version the error didn't occur. The original image is approx. 2000 px x 1400 px. Decreasing the size by 50% helped. Less scaling (I tried 90%, 80%, 70% and 60%, too) didn't help.
    using a slightly blurred version (gaussian blur, 2 px, in Photoshop CS) of the bad image prevents the error.
    My guess is that the error depends on rather subtle image properties. The blur doesn't change the images average brightness, the balance of colors or the size of the image, but still the error was gone afterwards.
    The problem is that I will work with slide shows that contain more images than two. It would be too time consuming to try to generate the DVD over and over again, look at which slide an error occurs, change that slide, and then generate again. Even the testing I am doing right now already "ate" a couple of days of my working time.
    Only thing I can do is to use a two image slide show and test image couple after image couple. If n is the number of images, I will spend (n - 1) times 3 minutes (which is the average time to create a two slides slide how with a blend). But of course I will try to prepare the images and make them as big as the monitor resolution, so Encore DVD doesn't have to scale the images any more. That'll make the whole generation process much shorter.
    If I use JPGs or TIFFs, the pixel aspect ratio is not preserved when the image is imported. I scaled one of the images in Photoshop, using a modified menu file that was installed with Encore DVD, because it already has the correct size for PAL, the pixel aspect ratio and the guides for the save areas. I saved the image as TIFF and as PSD and imported both into Encore DVD. The TIFF is rendered with a 1:1 pixel aspect ratio and NOT with the D1/DV PAL aspect ration that is stored in the TIFF. Thus the image gets narrowed and isn't displayed the way I wanted it any more. Only the PSD looks correct. But I think I saw this already in another thread...
    I cannot really understand why the MPEG encoding engine would produce bit rates that are illegal and that are not accepted afterwards, when Encore DVD is putting together all the stuff. Why is the MPEG encoding engine itself not throwing an error during the encoding process? This would save the developer so much time. Instead they have to wait until the end, thinking everything went right, and find out then that there was a problem.
    Still, if sometime somebody finds out more about the whole matter I would be glad about further explanations.
    Best regards,

  • I install latest update from my ipad 2, after the upgrade tablet running slowly. Probably the system requirements too high for my device. I think that users with older models should be able to install IOS 6.x.x on their devices or consider buying devices

    I install latest update from my ipad 2, after the upgrade tablet running slowly. Probably the system requirements too high for my device. I think that users with older models should be able to install IOS 6.x.x on their devices or consider buying devices from other manufacturers ...
    People are dissatisfied with the new update a lot, including some of my friends and acquaintances. Is it reasonable to wait until Apple implements the possibility to return to Ios Ios 6 to 7? And how soon it can be done?
    Sorry for my english, i am from Russia.

    I have a similar issue. I recently purchased an iPad Mini, and I started off by backing it up from the apps I had on my iPhone. Now, I have a number of apps that never downloaded and that I don't want on the iPad. Some of these are apps that I don't need, while others are the iPhone versions of apps. There are something like 23 apps that I have no use for, but iTunes tries to install every time I connect. I've also tried clicking the 'Will Install' buttons. There's no way to delete these apps from the iPad without first installing them, as far as I can see, and there's no way to NOT install them, in iTunes.
    It''s not just annoying, it's causing problems with installation of larger files and movies. Now, every time I sync to the computer, I get a warning that I'm over capacity by 580 MB, and larger apps will not install! Clicking Revert and a bunch of other things doesn't work, either. And I can't just delete some of the apps, because I or my wife use them on our phones!
