Why does every site, even Mozilla's, detect my Firefox as an old version when I have the up to date version?

My Firefox is updated, I have the 7.0.1. version, when I open Tools and click about Firefox it shows me just that, the 7.0.1. version. But every time I navigate to a website that offers download for it, I get the message I need to update. Even here, at Firefox help, the site warns me: '''''Warning: Firefox 3.6 will only be maintained with security and stability updates for a short period of time. Please update to the latest version of Firefox.'''''
Also if I want to install an add-on, I can't because 'it's not available for 3.6'
I uninstalled it and installed it again, no use. What could be the problem?

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed.
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' <br />
Filter = '''general.useragent.extra.firefox''' <br />
Right-click that preference and select '''Reset''' <br />
Then restart Firefox

HT1473 why does itunes media folder location in windows 8 goes to \username\music\music when pointed to the my music folder

I have recently decided to upgrade to windows 8 and with it clean out all the music in my itunes media collection and start fresh.
Before I start to download my purcharsed iCloud music or import my cds I set my media folder location to be "c:\users\username\my music\"
and the below images show the outcome, which seems like its a bug and it annoys me.
so now i have a folder called music inside the my music folder in my users profile, this seems really stupid i hope its a bug that gets fixed
if i set it as the below then all the music artists folder names appear straight under c:\users\username\
Why does the extra \music\ folder get added ?!?!!??? it just makes it messy.

Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
Essentially iTunes wants to put its content into <Media Folder>\<Media Kind>\<Subfolders>. See make a split library portable for reasons why you should stick to the default layout for the iTunes folders (media folder inside main iTunes folder), and Getting iTunes & Windows Media Player to play nicely for suggestions on how to set out the library for use by both applications.

Good Afternoon Geraldine,
I understand you are wondering why you did not receive an email receipt instantly for an iBook purchase made on March 2nd. Is this the first time you've noticed a delay? I would suggest contacting the iTunes Support team to report the issue. With your permission, they can access your account and possibly shed some light on this particular transaction.

Why does my macbook pro retina take 30 seconds for me to use it when i open the lid?

For some reason it takes my macbook like 30 seconds for me to use it when i open the lid. I cant move the mouse or anything until like 30 seconds go by is that normal or something wrong? Its the new macbook retina display and never had this problem when i first got it.

Are you running any applications when you open the lid, specifically any applications that are heavy on GPU usage such as iMovie or Photoshop?

Why does my iPad say it needs 1.4GB more storage to back up when I have 7.9GB of space available of my 20GB storage icloud storage?

MMy iPad says it needs 1.4GB more storage to do a back up but I have 7.9GB available of my 20GB storage icloud storage?

If you want to avoid paying for additional iCloud storage you can backup to your computer. Start the latest version of iTunes on your computer, connect your iPad, select General from the row of tab that are presented, then select your backup option.

Why does IPhoto create duplicates of photos and graphics that is on my Mac when I import Photostream. I started out with 4000 photos now I have almost 28,000. I am using new Ipad and the Mac is running Mountain Lion

Why does IPhoto create dupicates of photos and graphic that is on My Mac when I import the photos from Photo stream to the library? I started out with about 4,000 photos when I transferred everything from my PC. I use a new IPad and IPhone to take the photos. The Mac is running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 3.1 Intel prosessor. I am using IPhoto 11.
Thanks in advance

Why does EVERY attempt to "reject" even a tiny clip freeze the program?

****, I know I am a real neophyte here, but iMovie STINKS. Every little thing causes it to hang up and freeze. Case in point: I (finally) download video from an old camcorder using an analog to digital converter. Importing is easy. God forbid one tries to actually EDIT something, however.
I was going through the clips and "rejecting" snippets here and there (an aside- why not just say "delete" like normal people?) and got to the point that it was time to "move them to the trash. Little did I know what I was in for......
EVERY time I did this the program would "hang" or freeze. If Ii let it go several minutes it would often complete the task, even if the deleted clip was all of half a second--literally. Sometimes it wouldn't work and I had to force quit, while DELETED THE WHOLE DAMNED HOUR I JUST SPENT IMPORTING! What a piece of junk.
Does anyone have any idea what the **** is wrong with this thing? I've updates software and done what little I know how to do. I called Apple and, of course, they admit it pretty much *****. What do we do in the interim? I don't feel like loading the 06 version as some are doing. I barely get the 08 version. Not so sure I feel like doing another one and don't know if it can handle HD video when I try the new Canon 1080i HD camcorder.
Suggestions? ideas? Thanks in advance.

I think that the entire length of video event is reprocessed, even when a short amount is deleted, so if the clip is long, it takes a long time. I have been very frustrated with this as well, but have noticed that if I walk away from the computer, and come back later it is done (even when the "force quit" shows that imovie O8 is not responding). This is very frustrating, has not been fixed by Apple (I have been complaining since 08 came out), but there still are some advantages.
I am using both iMovie 08 and iMovie HD in processing/archiving old videos (non-digital, which I am transferring using a Canopus ADVC110). What I like about iMovie 08 (despite it's many draw-backs) is that files are saved as quicktime, and I can easily import them into Final Cut Express. Also, the thumbnails make it terribly easy to find the segments you are looking for. Otherwise, iMovie HD is better.

Why does my site look nothing like the design and during testing once uploaded to the server?,
Im using Muse whichj crashes like you would not beleive, but after much perseverance I got a basic 4 page holding site together, I tested the site and it all looked fine, when I uploaded it to the server it looks nothing like the site I tested, to the point that even the background has changed colour and nothing is in the rite place.

Why does every movie I download stop half way and say err=-50/err-39? I also have internet connection that is really good and it keeps saying to check that

Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

Why does every Apple update require a restart?

I vaguely remember a time when OS updates didn't require a complete restart every time you installed one. Why is it the case now? I have had 3 updates in the last 3 days and 3 restarts. The last one was updates to Quicktime, iLife Media browser and iDVD. None of which I would consider a critical components. OK Quicktime might have something in it but I doubt it.
UNIX is a great because of it modularity and the ability to update components without shutting everything else down. That's what makes it a great server platform. Yes I know occasionally the kernel and other core components need patching and in those cases a restart is required but why oh why does every Apple update of late require a restart?
Whomever answers (preferably from Apple) please be as technical as you like. I would much rather a real answer than bull.

Well, you dont have to believe it but that's what's happening. Many updates don't modify critical system files, but those that do will require a restart. Not all updates to QuickTime, for instance, have modified critical system files, so they've not required a restart. However, the latest version does do this, so the restart is required.
Likewise with iLife, the media browser is a core utility that is shared by the system and many applications and it's installation will require a restart. There are other similar shared resources as well which can get updated from time to time.
