Websites won't recognize Firefox update.

I'm updated to the latest version but almost every website tells me I'm not.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Please report back soon.

  • Pages update - Macbook won't recognize the update

    Pages update - I updated Pages but the computer won't recognize it.  Now I have documents I can't access because the computer says I must update.  I have turned the computer on and off a few times and it hasn't helped.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open Pages 5.2 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened by newer Pages versions anywhere, is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • A website is posing as Firefox update site, forces you to download a probably malicious fake firefox-update.exe

    The site
    http:// firefox.perl .sh/
    is posing as a firefox update site, and tries to get you to run an executable (firefox-update.exe)
    ''Edited to disable the link - TonyE''

    '''I had something similar happen to me a couple of days ago but the page was what looked like a 'Firefox Reported Attack Site' page!'''
    I went to Google and searched for 'Mystical pictures of London'>clicked 'Images' and on the first page of Google Images there was a picture that was out of place and lets say a little explicit.
    I couldn't make it out properly so clicked on the Pic. That's when i got redirected to what looked like the Firefox Reported Attack Site page, but it had a 'Download Updates' tab instead of the usual 'Get me out of Here' tab. I then got a Prompt saying:
    'The Website has been blocked based on your security preferences.
    Click 'OK' to download and install firefox updates.
    I clicked 'ok' knowing i would then get the prompt to save the file, so i could have a better look at what it was!
    I then took a screenshot of the pop up prompt and clicked cancel.
    Then run a full scan with Malwarebytes
    and it found a 'Rough Installer' Virus!
    Now i need to find a way of reporting this!?
    (Leaving a space or spaces in the links)
    The link on the Pic said:
    mysticalparty. png
    On the prompt it said:
    You have chosen to open
    firefox_update_2011. exe
    Which is a: Binary File
    from: http:// dl. av2011. co. cc
    I have also saved the Log from my MBAM scan.
    I hope i have not broken any rules putting the info up here, but i'm no Techno Wizz...I just don't want anyone else to make the same mistake as me and want this site Reported and closed down!
    Any Help or Advise would be Great!

  • Firefox won't recognize latest update HP simple pass

    I have tried everything and about just to say the heck with it and go back to IE9. But, I will ask.
    WHY does Firefox refuse to recognize the latest upgrade to HP simple pass (Egistech) that is loaded onto my computer. It keeps saying the current 5.0 version is not recognized. Ok, I understand this, but I have loaded version 7.1 and firefox evidently cannot see it and keeps telling me 5.0 is installed.
    Am I doing something wrong, or is Firefox just worthless and IE9 is the way to go?

    Does Firefox find other plugins placed in that folder?
    Note that you need to place a symlink to the libnpjp2.so file and not the actual file.
    You can also try to create a plugins folder in your home directory: ~/.mozilla/plugins

  • Frequently visited website no longer recognizes Firefox browser. Happened same day as upgrade from 18 to 19.

    Message from frequently visited website: https://www.mybenefitscalwin.org/
    Tells me the website is encrypted; managed by HP; HP history shows I've visited this website 126 times; all appears good, but I get the following message after opening their website, on their screen!
    Browser Not Supported
    The Web Browser you are using is not supported by MyBenefits CalWIN. Below is a list of supported browsers.
    Microsoft Internet Explorer (versions 8 and above)
    Firefox versions 10 and above
    I got this after upgrade from Firefox 18 to 19. Is that the reason?

    Madperson,
    This worked beautifully. Sorry for the delay in replying.
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-say-firefox-outdated-or-incompatible#w_workaround-for-broken-websites
    I changed the default browser from 19.0 to 18.0 on 2/21. Firefox just updated a few minutes ago (3/9) back to 19.0. The default browser remained at 18.0 after the update, and the website in question is still accessible. So looks like all is well.
    Thank you very much!!!

  • Most websites won't Load after Update

    My firefox said it had an update, so I did and immediately after it was done and rebooted nothing would load. My internet connection is full and I can connect to Itunes. I also figured out that a couple of sites do work fine (suntrust, college website) but the majority (msn, facebook, etc) just say "The Connection was Reset". I didn't change anything except for the update.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; .NET4.0C)

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Certain windows profile won't recognize java update

    Hi, all!
    I'm trying to install java 6 update 16 on my co-workers computer. I installed it when he was logged onto his profile, it installed ok. In Program files Java folder there's only the jdk 6 and jre 6, nothing else. However, when I do "java -version" in command prompt, it says only java 4 is installed. I logged him off and logged on as myself and when I do "java -version", it says java 6 is installed. So it's only when he is logged on to the computer does it think java 6 is not installed. What could be causing this? It's making so that jboss 6 won't even start.
    Thanks!

    Ana,
    TO DO:
    1. Check your compadre's PATH.
    2. Rename (or even delete) java.exe from windows\system32
    3. Hire someone who knows what they're doing.
    Cheers. Keith.

  • Keynote won't recognize the update

    I downloaded the latest version, and I can't open my existing files saying that I don't have the latest version. I've restarted and still no luck. What am I missing

    Hello WardPenn,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Keynote on your MacBook Pro.  You may have the current version of Keynote as well as the previous version in your Applications folder.  When you click on a document, it may be pointing to the older version of Keynote, but you can change all your Keynote documents to open with the newest version of Keynote.
    You can change the application a document will open with by navigating to the document in Finder and following these steps:
    Permanently change the document’s app
    Select the document and choose File > Get Info.
    In the Info window, click the triangle next to “Open with” to expand the section.
    Choose an app from the pop-up menu, or choose Other to locate a different app.
    If you want to use that app to open all documents of the same type as the current document and created by the same app, click Change All.
    You can find the full article here (the title of the article says Mountain Lion, but the steps are relevant for Mavericks as well):

  • User reviews don't show on websites when i use firefox

    User reviews don't load on websites since the latest Firefox update. They do show when I use IE.

    Hello,
    Are you facing this problem on particular sites??
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    '''Note:''' This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    * Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    * Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    * Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    * From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
    * Now click the Clear now button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

  • Firefox 6.0.1 update won't recognize the home page which uses a password access which has been saved into 6.0.1.

    Question
    Firefox 6.0.1 update won't recognize the home page which uses a password access which has been saved into 6.0.1. The security shows permissions for the web site but doesn't recognize that I've been accessing the web page every day since I updated to 6.0.1. Web page trying to access is <http://classic.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:98108.5.99999> This home page worked fine on earlier versions of Firefox and continues with Internet Explorer 9.0.

    Looks like its been fixed for me, not by 6.0.1 but by - Todd Siechen from http://www.dvdthemepak.com

    Todd... I love you xxx
    After having a nightmare since first day of version 6.0.0 and still no fix after 6.0.1, even after Apple requested the files... You fixed my problem... Checked for duplicate fonts and found about 5, selected "Resolve Duplicates" and everything great, even with old projects... You should work for Apple!

    1) The first and biggest culprit we found to be causing problems is with font issues. In order to alleviate this problem, open Font Book and make sure all the Fonts that are turned on have no dots next to them. If they do then select them and select "Resolve Duplicates" from the Edit menu. If you are using a different font manager then use whatever tool is available to make sure no duplicate fonts are loaded. iDVD 6 is very sensitive to this.

  • Websites that require entering a security verification code to prevent scamming do not recognize the characters I enter since the last FireFox update.

    When a website requires entry of a security code displayed for verification of human use, the characters I enter are not recognized since the last Firefox update.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == The last update for Firefox.

    I use this feature ( "tell sites...tracked" case ticked ), and I never met your problem. So this is not the where your trouble comes from.
    Ok, first of all, the security of your computer.
    You NEED a firewall, it is more important that an antivirus.
    Avast seems ok, but SpybotSD ? Is it still working, not out-of-date ? Try Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it is working like SpybotSD : free for checking your computer once by once, but paying if you want your computer always under his protection.
    And then, perform a check-up of your computer, to detect any malware.
    Second, after cleaning your computer, come back here and tell if you still have your problem. I believe that the cleaning will solve the problem, but maybe I'm wrong. I'll check every day this topic.

  • Updated to newest iTunes version, now it won't recognize my iPhone.

    Hey everyone. Was just looking for some tips or added feedback for an issue I'm having.
    I went to do the iOS7 update for my iPhone 4. My iTunes told me that I had to have the "Newest Version of iTunes (11.1.whatever) to update to iOS 7, Do you want to Download now?"
    So i clicked "Download" and away we went. After it finished, I restarted my computer like I always do after I install to software. I have Windows 8 by the way. When I started up iTunes and plugged in my device, nothing happened. No button in the top right appeared. So I ran the iTunes diagnostic, and it said no device was found. It shows up in "My Computer" as Landon's iPhone 4. So I know it's connected. I found the troubleshooting page for this on Apple's website, and did EVERYTHING. Still won't recognize my phone.
    Has anyone else run into this problem? How was it resolved? Any tips or tricks would be helpful!! Thanks in advance!!

  • My new iWeb won't recognize my website, gives error message

    UPDATE: After more reading, I found the only ".sites" file I have on my computer (Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2), and opened it in iWeb, which prompted me to choose a background for my site as if I were creating a site.  It looks like I'm missing this .sites file for the website I already made.
    Is there a way to recreate this .sites file?  Does it exist on my remote server?
    Thanks for your help.
    Old news:
    I upgraded to Snow Leopard, and my friend installed it for me.  He made a backup of all my files, but may not have used Time Machine.
    Now iWeb won't recognize the website I created in iWeb.  My website's folder appears in my directory under "Sites", and all files appear to be there.
    When I open iWeb, it says "Can't open file "~/Sites/[mywebsitename]/assets.http:--www.mywebsitename.com.plist" then immediately closes.
    Message was edited by: Bulletproof_tgr

    If you're trying to open one of your published site files then that's why you're getting that message.  iWeb can't read html files.
    Is the size of the Domain.sites2 file large indicating it contains your site and its components. A new domain file with just 1 page will be around  200 KB.  If the size of the file indicates that it is your domain file
    Try the following:
    close iWeb.
    delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    reboot.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If that doesn't help continue with:
    move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
    go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If you can't find a backup copy of the Domain.sites2 file that existed before the installation of SL you'll have to recreate your site from scratch.  Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.

  • Firefox updated to its newest version 12.0. Now my Adobe Flash plugin freezes and hangs every website when it is enabled even though it is the newest version.

    Today Firefox updated to its newest version 12.0. Immediately after update, I couldn't load most websites. The web browser would just freeze. I have determined that the culprit is the Adobe Flash Plugin, however; even with the newest version of the plugin, I am still having problems. Any suggestions?

    can you try this suggestion [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing%20the%20Flash%20plugin#w_playing-flash-videos-makes-firefox-hang] and/or [[How do I upgrade my graphics drivers?]]

  • I know have a mobile me account and so my apple id is switched from my email address.  i am trying to update my apps but it won't let me as it won't recognize my new 'ID'. how can i fix this on my iphone?

    I have mobile me account now and so my apple id is switched from my email address to my mobile me address.  Since I have made this change I can't update my apps. Everytime I try to sign in it won't recognize the switch. I have updated all the proper information on my iphone, however, when updating apps it still shows my apple id as my email address and not the mobile me account address. I am not sure what else to do???  I have even sync'd my iphone and tried to do it through my pc, however, it says that it can't update (nothing to update). I have ten updates sitting on my iphone apps...What to do...what to do?  Very confused.

    Where are you trying to log in? You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - can you log in there?
    Before you change your ID you should log out of the iTunes Store and on any devices which are logged into iCloud. Then once you've changed it you can log back in with the new ID. (Your iCloud synced data will disappear from the device when you do this but will reappear when you sign back in - give it time).
    If you are unable to sign into http://appleid.apple.com you will need to contact Support. Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
