Why can't i download or install firefox on a windows 7 computer?

each time I download, i am informed that I need to be an administrator. I am, and i am running the machine as administrator. firefox downloads, but then does not install, download disappears!

Will it work if you right click the downloaded exe and choose run as administrator?

    Why can't I download latest version of iTunes in Windows 8?

    Hey gallaleo3,
    First, if you already haven't, try downloading the latest version here:
    www.apple.com/itunes/download
    Then, if you have issues installing it from there, I would use the recommended steps in here:

  • Why can`t I download and instal the osx lion in brazil if I have already bought it?

    First of all, sorry for my english, but i`m not so good in it.
    Well, i`m trying to download and install the osx 10.7 in my 2009 macbook,
    i have already bought and used it before in my macbook,
    after installing the osx 10.8, i didn`t like and decided to go back to Snow Leopard.
    Now, i`m trying to download and instal but i can`t because they say that this osx isn`t available for my country.
    i think that if i have paid for this osx, i have the right to download and instal it again, can you help me?
    Tks.

    Not really sure but go to settings/itunes & app store on you phone and make sure you are logged in there with your Apple ID

  • I'm unable to install Firefox onto my Windows Vista computer because when I download the .exe file, it doesn't show up anywhere on my computer.

    I click on the download button on the Firefox website and it processes as if it is downloading. Once it is finished processing, I'm unable to find the file to install it with the install wizard. I tried it by both running and saving the file. In both cases, the file just vanishes.

    Hello.
    See this article for help on installing Firefox:

  • Why, if I've downloaded and installed Firefox 8.0.1 two different times, do sites (including mozilla's), still say I have 3.5 version?

    I updated/installed 8.0.1 a month ago, (had 3.5. 0 or 1 can't remember) and under HELP in the top toolbar, About Firefox, said I have 8.0.1. Today, Sunday 12/18/11 tried updating something (forget what) and it said I have old version and need to update…which I did from Mozilla site, and Mozilla still says I have an older version, and that I need to update to 8.0.1 after once again doing so.
    I put "Everytime Firefox is opened" coz it still says I have 8.0.01
    I notice below that the 'Troubleshooting Information' copied below says '''Version 8.0.1''' under Application Basics

    You have a general.useragent.override pref added by Fast Browser Search (FBSMTWB) that identifies you as Firefox/3.5.3
    *Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) FBSMTWB

  • Why can't I download the latest version of iTunes onto my computer?

    My computer (Macbook Pro) won't let me download music to my iPhone 5 so I went to try and download the latest version of iTunes but it will not let me install it on my computer. Mac OS X Version 10.6.8

    The most recent iTunes version (iTunes 12.0.1) requires OS X Lion or higher, so you have to upgrade OS X to a higher operating system like OS X Yosemite.
    You can download OS X Yosemite from the Mac App Store, and it will check if your Mac is compatible. Before upgrading, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your applications are compatible -> http://www.roaringapps.com

  • Why can't I download the songs from my ipod to my compute

    I'm getting insanely frustrated right now. I got an ipod about a month ago and was ecstatic. I could finally get the 12 gb of music off my computer (all songs I've taken the time to copy from my own legal cds) and onto my ipod. So I got the new itunes and I copied copied all the files to my library and then from there onto my ipod.
    I then made sure they all played on the ipod and once they did I made sure that itunes was set to manually manage songs and then removed them from my library clearing my hard drive of them.
    Then my ipod starts having issues, it will just randomly restart for no apparent reason, so I take it in to the apple store and they just want to restore it which will wipe all my music. So I say uhm no, can I please back it up first and they say they don't support that.
    What the heck is going on here, why does it make any sense to have to leave the music on teh computer?!? It's a portable music device!
    I found there are programs that will copy the files back but they cost money which makes no sense. Basically Apple has hijacked my songs and won't give them back.
    I'd email them directly about the issue but I can't find any sign of an email link anywhere on teh webpage.
    Any help would be much appreciated and please forgive the rant but I'm really getting sick of my ipod restating constantly.

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes. The transfer of non iTMS content is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod to discourage it's use as a device for mass file sharing. However there is a manual (free) method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    Not all the third party programs are commercial offerings and you can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    If you want to check out the YamiPod utility it is free but you are also free to make a donation to it's developer if you find it useful: YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    The transfer of purchased content to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7, look under under File>"Transfer Purchases from iPod". A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

  • Why can't I download music onto my iphone from my new computer?

    I have a new computer that I've authorized. But I cannot transfer new music that I've purchased onto my existing iPhone. It says that my library is synced with another computer. I'd have to wipe out everything on my phone to sync to this new computer. I don't want to do that. How can I select this new computer as the computer that I want to sync to from now on? Will it help to un-authorize my old computer?
    THANKS!

    I didn't watch the video,  However, the procedure is simple.  Download the track from the other site, and make sure it is saved to your computer.  Then drag it into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder (which can be found inside your iTunes Media folder).

  • How do I install Firefox on a (windows xp) computer that will never have an internet connection?

    I need to run a browser on computers in a test lab. (For example, you often use browsers to setup routers.) The network in the test lab is NOT connected to the internet, so downloading a setup file that pulls in additional files from the internet is no good. I need all the files so I can put them on a CD or USB drive for installation.
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

    The installer from mozilla.com does not pull files from the internet during installation. You should be good to download that file to a USB stick.
