When I click on a Firefox update My Mac Mini Os 10.4 just keeps running how long should I wait for this update to complete.

The update just keeps running it seems that it will never complete the update like it is stuck in one place with out progress.
I have the indicator on my screen going but no advancement.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

For Mac OS X 10.4.11 or Mac OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:
* http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
* Download a new copy of the Firefox program
* Firefox 3.6: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

    they say they are working on the problem. (probably a software problem) that they will have an update for it. Well my question is when?
    Next week. Or next year. Maybe sooner. Maybe later.
    How long must we wait. ... HELP apple!!
    No one at Apple who knows that answer is going to ready or reply to your post. This is a user-to-user tech support forum. I can help you get your iPad working with your current network, but that is all.
    Apple is always working on updates for all current products. If there is some way they can improve compatibility with more 3rd party routers, they will certainly do it. That is no guarantee that any potential future improvement will help you. The best solution is to replace your router with one that works with the iPad.

  • How long should it take for the iOS 5 iPhone software to update?

    How long should it take for the iOS 5 iPhone software to update? Mine is taking a ridiculous amount of time, to the point where I need to stop it as i need to go out and need my phone !

    Depends on how strong your wifi connection is.
    you can try a reset hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release.

  • I can't update my apps nor download apps it just keeps running in circles

    I can't update my apps nor download apps it just keeps running in circles. This has happened in this new year. Can anyone give me some help? It would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey Doris140 ,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you might have apps that are stuck on “Waiting," and the following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue and may help you as well:
    App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Have a good one,

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck

  • I'm trying to update iTunes to 10.5.2 and I get the message that "a program required for this install to complete could not be run".  I've tried all of the steps to try to resolve this (I have a PC) but nothing works.  Help please!

    I'm trying to update iTunes to 10.5.2.  I have a Windows 7 64-bit Dell laptop, and when I try to update it, I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor." 
    I went to the troubleshooting page and did all of the steps they listed:  uninstalled iTunes, deleted by Temp files, even disabled AVG while I downloaded again and tried to install.  I still get the same message.  If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it!

    You must have gone to the old microsoft post.

  • Invalid serial number for Lion update. How long do we wait for the code ?

    I bought iMac on June 27, 2011 from the Apple Store in Nashua, NH.
    I went to the page to enter my serial number and get my code for free LION update.
    All I get is invalid serial # message.
    I filled out the form and I am still waiting...going on second day ???
    MadoneGirl

    I know that. I entered my valid serial number but the system that allows for a free update is rejecting
    the serial number. You then have to send them a copy of your purchase etc etc.........and they will
    email you some kind of code !!!! I am still (along with many others) waiting for my CODE.

  • When I click on the Firefox icon to open it, it does not open and comes up with the crash reporter. This happens every time I open or restart friefox. what should I do?

    Firefox keeps crashing. I can't get it to open to do any of the troubleshooting steps. I have run Malware and there are no viruses. I have re-installed the latest version and still occurs.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • How long should the 10.8.5 update take to install?

    Because it's a supplemental update, I figured the 10.8.5 update would install in a couple of minutes. It's been over 20 minutes since I clicked Restart and my iMac still shows Less than a minute to go and the progress bar has been in the same position for quite a while. Is this normal?

    I also had the same issue with the 10.8.5 Supplemental Update 1.0.
    2009 27" iMac (original hard drive recalled and replaced; 8 GB of 3rd party RAM added; no other notable additions).
    I'll see if Apple has anything else to say about it.
    I guess I'll just back up the drive and hope the Mavericks install works better...

  • How long does it take for downloading updated V4.2...

  • How long does it take for the auto updater to install a new version?

    I've just seen that Flash v11.4.402.287 is available.  How long should I wait for the auto updater to update my system (currently v11.4.402.278)?
    In the past I have waited 2-3 days and the new version still hasn't been installed, even though the Task Scheduler shows that the auto updater is running.  I've then given up and manually installed the new version as I think that this is too long to wait.
    Thanks

    The good news - the auto update has worked this time and I now have v11.4.402.287.
    The not so good news - I've had a look through both flashinstall.log files and there is nothing strange there.  I can see the times when the auto updater has done the update, and also the last 2 times when I've done the update manually.  There aren't any other entries - i.e. the only entries are for successful installations.
    As the update has worked for me this time I think that this can be closed.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I am using a Microsoft Natural keyboard and when i use the close button on Ver. 5.0 or newer it closes the whole screen not just the active tab is there a fix for this

    I am using a Microsoft Natural 4000 Keyboard
    IF I update to Mozila 5.0 when i use the close button it shuts down the whole browser nut just the active tab
    Is there a workaround for this because I like the close button feature

    Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? (I'm having trouble determining from your "More system information" whether it's enabled or disabled.) Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

  • How do I stop firefox from redirecting every page I click on in Google search? No matter what I search for in Google when I click on it Firefox redirects me to some other search, sales, or contest page.

    How do I stop firefox from redirecting every page I click on in Google search? No matter what I search for in Google when I click on it Firefox redirects me to some other search, sales, or contest page. I have a security program running, no maleware, adware, or virus on my pc. Thanks for the help in advance.

    Sounds like a dose of search redirect malware or a redirect virus.
