Why am i getting an upgrade message on my opening page when I already have and I am running the latest version?
You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!
I am using the latest version. why is this message still on my opening page. maybe one out of ten times it is not there
The old Google homepage, http://www.google.com/firefox , is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox. It appears that it is no longer being maintained.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''''about:home'''''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same.

* Try using the "Restore to Default" button as shown in the above article.

Why does my iCloud email continually stall (hang) when I'm typing a message? I have a 2013 MacBook Pro and I'm running the latest version of Yosemite. This is the first time that I've been absolutely frustrated with an Apple product. Can you help me, please?
Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
Install the new version that you have downloaded.
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data. -
Since a recent Itunes upgrade I've lost the settings facility in home sharing to import tracks not in my library. When I check for updates I'm running the latest version. Any ideas how to resolve this?
Sadly, the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

I am trying to load a calpatch to a program called Caldera, but i keep getting the following “AppleScript Error – Terminal got an error:apple event timed out ( -1712)” my IOS is Yosemite, and i am running the latest version of the caldera program
Hi Linc, thanks for this ... it is weird, we tried this previously, but we only did a restart.
This morning our Mac was 'off' even though we hadn't turned it off, (maybe a power outage) I restarted and ran the calpatch immediately, and it worked !!
it is embarrassing, because as a service engineer, I am always telling customers to restart and even power down completely before trying again.
Thanks.

Why do I get a prompt to create an iCloud account when I already have one?
When I try to turn on notes so my iPhone and iPad will sync, I am prompted to create an account when I already have one. Why? How can I do this?
Have you created an iCloud account? This is not the account or ID you use for iTunes. And where exactly are you turning on notes? In what area within settings of your devices?

Hi! I can't upgrade my iTunes 10.3.1.55 on my Windows XP 2002 SP3 to the latest version of iTunes. Got the message: "A problem has occured with the Windows Installer-package. A program needed for this installation could not be run." What to do?
Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time? -
Some of my applications have been saying I need the latest version of Adoebe Flash Player. When I try to download it I get the following error message: 'Frame Load interrupted' and the installation stops. Any suggestions?
You can only use apps downloaded from the App store, not via a browser. There is no Flash for any iOS device including the iPod.

I've bought a Digital AV Adapter to be able to connect my Iphone 4g to the TV. I only get sound but no picture when I look at TVPlay-canals. Photo gallery OK. I have updated my phone to the latest version IOS. Any solution?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your phone doesn't do mirroring, only the 4S will do that. It only does basic AirPlay.
Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues). -
Will LR get the new brush feature added to the graduated filter and radial filter like the latest version of Camera raw?
OK, at least I can look forward to it and use Photoshop & CR instead of LR for these filters until then.
Thanks -
Previous version had save all tabs before shutting down,which helped a lot if u open same windows always,but this is not there in the latest version I have upgraded recently.Request you to guide me if this can be accommodated in the new version.
Firefox now always stores the old session which you can access by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session".
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" -
On my firefox start up screen, I get the message that I am not running the latest. It asks that I upgrade now. However, under "about firefox," I am running 9.01, the latest version. I'd like to know why I'm getting this message and how I can get rid of it.
Thank you.Hi jerzyguitar,
You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
You should try changing your home page to:
about:home
If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
Hopefully this helps -

I can't run the latest version. I get a window saying firefox.exe is not a Win32 file
I can install version 5.0.1 but it will not run. I had this version working when someone elso was using my computer. I do not know how it happened but the compute froze and I could not run Firefox afterwards. I took Firefox out of my computer. Downloaded the latest version again and tried to run it. I did this many times to no avail
It sounds like the installation is corrupted.
Please do the following.<br><br>
#Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 5.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop. If necessary, use Internet Explorer to download it, but in that event, choose "Save" when you see the prompt. ''Do not choose "Run"''<br><br>
#Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
As a precaution, make a backup of your Bookmarks as follows:<br><br>
#Press CTRL+SHIFT+B to open the Bookmarks Manager.<br><br>
#Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
You can use this file at any time to restore your bookmarks should that prove to be necessary. Simply reverse the procedure and choose "Import HTML" instead.
N.B. If you use a download accelerator, disable it before you attempt to download Firefox. These utilities are a frequent cause of corrupt files whereby you get the error message you mentioned.
If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
Thanks.
