Want to revert to Firefox without Nightly (Windows), but Download says I have latest Firefox, no option to exclude/uninstall Nightly - how can I do it Tx

Want to uninstall Nightly from my Windows computer and revert to Firefox, which I have used for many years. Message when I attempted to download Firefox is that I have the latest version already.
The Help menu in Firefox refers only to Nightly Help, About etc. Does this mean that Nightly and Firefox are inseparable and that downloading Firefox again would give me Nightly again?
I have Nightly showing in Control Panel programs list, so assume can be removed via Control Panel.
Could anyone confirm that the latest download does not include Nightly? Or, if it does, how can it be excluded?
Also, in downloading/installing latest Firefox, is there provision for retaining bookmarks, settings etc?
Thank you very much, Helen

Hello Helen,
the latest stable firefox version is the 31.1.1 and you can download it from the next link (full installer) : https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
[https://nightly.mozilla.org/ Firefox nightly] is a build for testing only, all new things first tested in nightly.
yes you can remove firefox from Control panel, but it is better to go for a clean-reinstall, this means you '''remove Firefox program files''' and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from the next link (all languages-full intaller)https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default in '''Windows''':
* C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
* C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
* Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
* Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
WARNING: Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device! See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. 
Thank you.

Firefox has disabled flash, but I did a fresh install and flash is the newest version. How can I re-enable flash?

I just did a fresh install of Fedora 15, copied the backup folder of Firefox into the home directory, installed flash using the latest yum package from Adobe, ran all of the extra scripts to install the wrapper for 32 bit apps being used on a 64 bit OS. Upon attempting to open a flash video, Firefox tells me Flash is not installed. Running the Adobe installer (yum package) from the Adobe website reports unable to install package, latest package is already installed.
I followed the trouble shooting steps from your check plugins website and deleted pluginreg.dat (twice) restarting Firefox each time. No change, Flash Player is still disabled by Firefox.

Start here.

HT4623 I have IPAD 2. i want to update to a more current version of IOS, but I don't have a "software update" option. Does anyone know how I should go about updating my ipad. I bought it in April, 2011.

I have an IPAD 2 that I purchased two years ago. I would like to get a more current version of the IOS so that I can download games, etc. The instructions say to go to General and select Software Download. I do not have that option listed in my General area. Does anyone know how I should go about getting the more current IOS? Also, will the download hurt my IPAD. I was told it might damage my operating system. Thank you, Marilyn

No. The Download is the operating system. It won't damage it because its released by Apple and signed to work on it.
It will update the Operating system to the newer version.

What can be done or how can I ensure all firefox's are shut??

You can try "Reset Download Actions": http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
You can also try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.

When I open Firefox, a window pops up saying I have either opened or closed another window in Firefox even tho I haven't and nothing else is opened. I have to close that window to continue. How canI get it to stop?

Are you using the Default Theme? ''If not, switch to the Default Theme.''
If it isn't a problem with a 3rd party Theme, try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.''
# You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?

My question was already detailed: If I post a Word document on my website, I want to share the link. Firefox won't let me do that. It forces me to download the document. It won't go to the link. How can I get it to do that? Can I?
Here's an example. I want Firefox to go to this link:
http://www.therevdrcharleswallen.com/CV2008.doc
It won't. Explorer will go there, but Firefox won't. I don't want to open an extra document. I want to visit the site in my browser.

Firefox can't handle MS Office documents and you will have to open such a file in an external Office program of viewer.

I have two iPhones, one is a 4s and the other is a 3g. I have not used my 3g in some time now. I recently restored it but I cannot use it without a sim card, it says i have to "activate it." I cannot place my iPhone 4s sim card in it (too small), and i do not want to get a new contract or sim card for an iPhone that i do not ues very much.

Thanks for your help, but i cannot borrow a noral sim card now, my family has all up graded to iPhone 4s's, i have done this before, but one of my family had the same type of iphone so i could use theirs. Now i am the only one who still holds on to their old phone... I am not sure about buying an adapter...

fixed by entering

worked for me - but don't know what it does or why :)
