We use a national system that requires Firefox 3.6.25, I am trying to find a way to silently install it with a "no update" for all users switch

/s does not work for silent either, will try -ms

[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Firefox 3.6.28] was the last security update for the the ancient 3.6 not the older 3.6.25.
You could try using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ useragent switcher] to change the UA to the old 3.6.* or even do a manual override by setting '''general.useragent.override''' in '''about:config''' as a '''string''' and say the old 3.6.25 UA to fool site while being up to date security wise and not be [http://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities vulnerable] as 3.6.28 even is rather behind.

  • Why does Firefox 31 change all PDF icons and opening in browser, require a fix using REGEDIT to fix for ALL USERS on a computer?

    The solution to use REGEDIT in the question linked below almost fixed my trouble with PDF files on over 30 computers, with several users on each computer:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1013642
    But I needed to fix it for ALL users on a computer, without logging onto each account, on each computer. My fix was to logon as administrator and change the following system-global key instead:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\.pdf
    Name: Default
    Type: Reg_SZ
    Data: FirefoxHtm
    Changed the data from FirefoxHtm to AcroExch.Document.11
    I use Adobe Reader XI on Win7 Pro, 64-bit machines.
    The problem started when I ran a downloaded file to install the new version of Firefox on the computers.
    Why would Firefox require me to use REGEDIT in this manner to fix the problem?

    This only happens when you set Firefox as the default browser and Firefox thinks that there is currently no application the handles PDF files.

  • How can I set the default home page in Firefox 4 for all users that login to a PC on a Win 7 PC?

    I work at a community college in upstate NY.
    We use Firefox as the default browser at our institution and we have always set the default homepage to be our homepage for all users that login to the PC. We had a procedure to to that that worked with Windows XP and FF 3 or earlier
    We would do the following:
    1. go to: c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\FireFox\Profiles\<profile_name>\prefs.js
    2. Add the line: user_pref (“browser.startup.homepage”,”http://www.genesee.edu”);
    3. Copy the Folder
    C:\Documents & Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla
    To
    C:\Documents & Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla
    4. Restart the computer
    We're going to Win 7 and Firefox 4 and things seem to be different in terms of files and file structure. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Making customisation from the default profile is generally considered poor practice and quite often doesn't work out as planned. (If you're interested in some more information on this, [http://mockbox.net/windows-7/227-customise-windows-7-default-profile.html see here] see here)

    And question is STILL not answered.  WHICH is to be downloaded and used?
    I would like an answer.

    Thank you for the clarification!  It is really kinda circle-speaking to state on an information page to put forth info people need in that manner.  It really does add to the confusion and frustration when you need a simple,
    straight answer, such as you gave, and you dont get one.  Kind of like that . . other... software company....
    This rabbit hole still continues, though.  I'm going to ladder it out, just to see for myself:
    Have: MacBookPro / 2.4 GHz/ Intel Core i5/ running OS X 10.6.3 -
    Need: latest version of Java, so Flash update can be loaded;
                                  (want html5 to be the standard so badly, but client wants Flash)                  
      Attempted:  Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2 on Apple website.  No Joy.
            Found:   Update 2 is proper update for Mac OS X 10.6.3.  Could not find download on Apple website;
                           - No Joy.
      Attempted:  Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8. Half Joy. Confusing, no straight info.
            Found:   In order to install update for Java, must update OS X from present 10.6.3 to 10.6.8
      Attempted:   Tried to find update to OS X 10.6.3 to 10.6.8. on Apple website.
    how far does the rabbit hole go?

  • Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. Any suggestion?

    Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. I already tried to rebuild the iPhoto Library (all the possible options) and tried to update teh version from 9.4.3 to 9.5 but the problem still persists: is there a way to delete this slideshow without selecting it ? How can I solve the problem, please?
    Kind Regards

    Can you restore your iPhoto Library from a backup version, that was created before you added the slideshow?
    If not, have you tried to rebuild the slideshow with iPhoto Library Manager?
    As described by Terence Devlin here:  Re: iphoto library was created with an unrelased version of iphoto please quit and ugrade library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4

  • My current iPhoto'11 version is the 9.2.1 one.  I just attempted to install the 9.2.3 update, but all I got was an Alert sign stating that "iPhoto 9.1.0 or later is required to install this update." Same thing happened with the 9.1.0 update afterwards.

    Put iPhoto back into the Applications folder, not in any subfolders, and ensure it's named iPhoto or iPhoto.app.

  • How do I completely disable initial "Checking Compatibility of Add-ons" pop-up for all users on a Citrix server where the FireFox was upgraded to 29.0.1

    I have a set of Citrix servers, we need to upgrade the FireFox on them to 29.0.1
    When I have done this, and a user runs FireFox, now the users are being presented with a pop-up "Checking Compatibility of Add-ons" which delays the start of FireFox.
    I need to prevent this so users just see FireFox start up without any delays.
    I have installed the add-on that re-enables extensions.checkCompatibility and tried various ways of implementing it like pref("extensions.checkCompatibility", false);
    However we seem to have a situation where the add-on that enables the setting is not loaded yet so the setting is not implemented.
    How do I solve this for all users?

    You can try to set the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref to ignore on the about:config
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone
    You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to specify new (default) values and possibly lock prefs.
    Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

  • One Library for all users on the system - Sharing?

    Hello.
    I'm using iTunes 9.0.3 on OS X 10.6.2. On this system, there are TWO users, one for my wife, one for me. I'd like to "merge" the seperate iTunes libraries, so that there's only one shared library for all users.
    How could this be achieved?
    Searching the web, I found a writeup on [dougscripts.com by Paul Whitey|http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/sharedlib.php], which basically explains to move ~/Music/iTunes to /Users/Shared/iTunes and making sure that there's an alias in ~/Music pointing to /Users/Shared/iTunes. It also explains, that the ownership of the files & folders is to be changed so, that all users have read & write access. This then looks like this on my system:
    !http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6223/fileinfowithbothusersha.png!
    -> http://yfrog.com/5yfileinfowithbothusershap
    It works good - both "alex" and "sandra" can work with these files (ie. move them, rename them, change ID3 tags).
    But see those:
    !http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/2183/fileinfowithonlyalexhav.png! !http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/7807/fileinfowithonlysandra4.png!
    --> http://yfrog.com/jufileinfowithonlyalexhavp & http://yfrog.com/j2fileinfowithonlysandra4p
    That's from files which sandra or alex have added later on. Only the one who added these files can modify them (which is of course correct, if you have a look at the file permissions).
    How would you go about having only ONE iTunes database on the system? Simply putting the iTunes Db on a shared folder doesn't work well, as can be seen above. Always having to fiddle around with the file permissions isn't exactly comfortable…
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Hm. PowerTunes crashs, when I make it Share my library. I pasted the crash report at http://pbox.ca/13gwy
    Since I cannot know how/if would work (because of the crash…), please correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it also just move the files to /Users/Shared and set permissions correctly? Wouldn't I need to keep on running PowerTunes from time to time, or is it "run once and forget" application (if it works)?

  • Powershell 4.0 How to use Add-Printer to add printer for all users (machine)

    Is there a way I can use Powershell 4.0 Add-Printer cmdlet to add a printer for all users (machine)?  I tried from an admin account but it only adds a printer for the currently logged on user.
    thanks.

    Adding a printer for all users requires having access to their profiles (and registry hive for user) to save the mapped printer information. Your best bet is to either use Group Policy Preferences or write a user logon script that ones when they log in and
    maps the printer if not already mapped. 
    Group Policy Preferences Example
    I wrote an article a while back that shows how to use a GPO logon script to map a printer. It doesn't use V4, but the process would be the same as far as a GPO goes.

    In the detailed help for the event structure there is a link to caveats and recommendations for using event structures.  It is a good starting point.
    It is courteous to let the Forum know when your questions are related to a school assignment or homework.  We are glad to help you learn LabVIEW, but do not do your homework for you.
    You have learned the major disadvantage of the sequence structure: It must run to completion before anything else can happen.
    If you are building a state machine (typically a while loop with shift registers enclosing a case structure with one case per state) and having trouble with timing, then think about your requirements. Apparently you have some time delays, but under certain conditions you must terminate a delay/wait and do something else.  One way of doing this is to have a Wait state.  The wait state has a short delay, determined by the minimum time you can delay responding to a changed condition, and a check to see if the required elapsed time has occurred.  If the time has not elapsed, the next state is the Wait state again.  The state machine can repeat any state as often as necessary.  So a 15 second delay could be implemented by going to a Wait state with a one second wait 15 times. Any error or new command will see a response in no more than one second.

    I am using MAC OSx 10.5.8 (9L31a) as my operation system.  The TV says "No signal.  Check connected device's power, cable connection and source selection."  Seems to me that that goes in hand with what the Samsung tech said about the Mac needing to be forces to use the external display.  But how do I do that?
