Why does Mozilla not fix the XULRunner bug?

I'm loosing the will to use FF as this rate. It seems that XULRunner version conflicts have been around for a long time. Isn't it time to fix this once and for all.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After update of Zone Alarm and re-boot ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; InfoPath.1; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E)

Assuming you mean something along the lines of:
'''XULrunner Error: Platform version '1.9.x.x' is not compatible'''
There are two possibilities, neither of which originate from Mozilla:
1. "You have some security software that was locking files in the Firefox program folder or have some kind of file protection active and thus prevented the updater from replacing them." quoted from another thread. The solution is to just download the full installer from http://getfirefox.com and run it, you will not lose any user data like bookmarks or settings.
2. You have '''Malware''' locking files in the same way. The solution is to battle it out for weeks with said malware until you give up and run http://wubi-installer.org

  • Why does firefox not fix the disappearing text problem

    text in firefox gradually disappears within ten or fifteen seconds and is unreadable making firefox usless as a browser.I used to use it most but cannot use it at all now.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book.  Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

    I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book.  (and on my iPhone as well)  Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

    The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
    If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

  • Why does apple not remove the malware Genieo

    Why does apple not remove the malware Genieo - it takes over the Safari browser even with extensions turned off - firefox works fine but the malware is still alive and kicking on my mac.  Should I just uninstall safari and hope the malware is not doing more damage in the background?

    Hi Sickof --
    Apple has never had anything to do with Genio.  It is sneakily installed with other apps you think would be helpful. It is very sickening, IMHO. 
    Here's a thread here -- It's long, I know, but it's got great information for you.

    Keep reading.  It's worth it.

  • Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    There have been many issues reported with Kodak cameras - serach the forums for them
    Actually the best practise is to use a card reader to import your photos, verify that they are imported ocrrectly and wait at least one backup cycle and then use the camera's format command to reformat the card and erase it - this assures no lost photos and always having the card properly formatted

  • Why does is not show the radio buttons

    I want to display the buttons in a row then radio button in a row under the button and then log scroll pane under the radio buttons. This is my code:
            //Add the buttons and the log to this panel.
            add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
            add(radioPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
            add(logScrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);When i run it it display the buttons and the logsrollpane. Why does it not display the radio buttons?

    Thanks guys.
    This is my problem. We have a big system that produce lots of log files and the software testers have to manually have to go through the logs file and look for a certain XML tags in the log file.
    What I want to do is help the software testers my developing a small tool that will allow them to open a log file and then click on a radio button corresponding to a xml tags that they are looking for and automatically highlight the tags in the file in yellow color .
    I am not sure how feasible this is and I am stuck.
    This is what I have done so far.
    Can you please guys help me go forward.

  • Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting to PDF?

    Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting in PDF? I can seee the TOC in iBooks Author but when I want to see what it looks like in a regular PDF, the TOC does not show up.

    Strange question you ask here. Not sure why that is relevant to "why" IBA won't publish a table of contents in a PDF.
    But since eyou asked, it's simple, I want to author some books in IBA and also see what they look like - completed - in PDF. Again, any suggestions as to a work around so I don't have to cut and paste back into Pages?

  • Why does Canon NOT support the Canon Utilities software?

    The Canon Map Utility software can not detect my Canon GPS Receiver GP-E2.  Over the phone, Canon "Customer Support" had me uninstall all 10 Canon Utilities that I had previously installed, and then let me install only 8 older versions of Canon Utilities.  And, the Canon Map Utility software STILL could not detect my Canon GP-E2. 
    Why doesn't Canon have ANYONE who knows the Canon Utility software?  The first support rep had NEVER used any of the software!  And the second support rep, whom I was transfered to by a Supervisor who told me that this was the most experienced support person for the software, has only used the software ONCE!
    Why does Canon NOT SUPPORT Canon software?????
    As an old friend used to always say,
    "Keep Looking Up!"

    When I use the GPS-E2 on my camera, the pictures have are geotagged.  It's when I try to use the GPS log that Map Utility has a problem.  I like the idea of recording where I went, not just where each picture was taken.  That way, I can see where I found nothing to take pictures of.

  • Why does iTunes not refresh the Music Library if files are updated?

    What if have already a nice library SYSTEM built for my music, and every time I add 30-50 files to 30-50 different locations, iTunes requires me to add the same song again... What if I am doing this updating for 3 hours and I can't remember anymore which songs I added to my Brazilian compilation folder? Why can't iTunes update the library with added files? I see this question popping up on a lot of forums. This is very cumbersome. I keep my international music collection organized by country of origin. If I let iTunes consolidate my music, it will put everything into one big folder organized by name of artist. I definitely don't want to let the program do that. I would lose all my work and all my system.
    Once I imported the folder system into iTunes though as a reference, it does not recognize if there was a change, music added, music deleted, music reogranized. It doesn't make sense to delete everything from the iTunes Music Library every time I update my music collection.
    Where is the solution? I want iTunes to find the changes and apply it to my Music Library automatically.
    I can live with my iPod only having the files in one big library, since I mostly use it for shuffle play anyway, but I want to keep my originals in an orderly manner based on style, country of origin, etc. I don't want to end up having all my files renamed and moved.
    So I need iTunes to refresh my Music Library by looking at the original folder I imported the list from, and make the necessary changes.

    I guess then this is a serious shortcoming of iTunes... Up till this point I owned an RCA Lyra MP3 player and it had no problems whatsoever doing these things. I guess, after seeing how iTunes and iPod works, I'd rather return to Lyra if it had an 80 G version. The only thing that still keeps me with iPod is the capacity.
    It seems like that iTunes is a very cumbersome program and it tries to be so much user friendly that it even tries to eliminate the human element. Sometimes, it makes sense to keep files organized in specific manner. Especially when there is work involved and productivity.
    I guess I will just delete everything from the play list and read in the main folder every once in a while, leaving the machine working on it during the night or something, then another night, it will refresh my iPod. That's the only solution I see right now.
    It is interesting that a huge program like iTunes cannot do what a small one like Lyra can. And I even read in user groups that some people created programs for this problem, but those programs don't work with iTunes 7 well yet, so I am stuck with the manual updating or the brutal deletion and re-reading.
    Thank you for the answer. At least I know what not to expect from the program. I just use it for only one purpose: load music onto iPod, then forget about it. It quite an unuseful program for me otherwise.

  • Why does it not use the index?

    L.S.,
    We are using a table called IT_RFC_REGISTRATION. It is a relatively big table for our application.
    Its primary key is RFCNR, each new RFCNR getting the next value.
    Now for my intranet report I am interested in the last 40 records. But when I execute:
    SELECT *
    FROM IT_RFC_REGISTRATION
    ORDER BY RFCNR DESC
    the query takes ages to execute.
    When I do this:
    SELECT RFCNR
    FROM IT_RFC_REGISTRATION
    ORDER BY RFCNR DESC
    the result comes instantaneous because this query uses the index on RFCNR.
    Why does the former query not use the index to execute? It should be much faster to fetch ROWIDs from the index end to start and use those to get the records, than to load all the records and then sort them.
    Is there a trick with which I can use a join of the latter query and the former query to speed up the result?
    Greetings,
    Philbert de Zwart,
    Utrecht, The Netherlands.

    The difference you see in query run time is based on the amount data being sorted, then returned. In the first query, a full table scan is faster since if the index was used, Oracle would have to do a lookup in the index, get the rowid's and go look up the data in the table (TWO disk i/o's). It's faster to just scan the entire table.
    Indexes will generally not be used unless you have a where clause. If you only need a few fields from the table, you could include them all in an index. For instance, if you only need RFCNR & DESC create a concatenated index on those two columns and then only a scan of the index is required (very fast).

  • Why does Apple not support the rSAP - Remote SIM Access Profile - for connection to car handsfree via Bluetooth

    Hello community,
    I just ordered a new car and it comes with a bluetooth based handsfree installation based on rSAP (remote SIM access profile). I learned that rSAP is the ideal thing to eliminate the unwanted radiofrequency radiation (RFR) inside the car. Now while googleing I also learned that iPhone on iOS does not support rSAP.
    I would like to point to the following page which shows some more detailed information on the rSAP topic:
    http://paulroberts69.wordpress.com/2011/02/28/android-2-2-and-rsap-compatibility /
    I find rSAP a very usefuly thing, if it really brings the GSM radiation level down inside the car and allows the full use of all GSM functions by the rSAP premium handsfree kit built into the car. I absolutely do not understand why it is not already available with iOS.
    From several web sources I understand that rSAP is available for jailbroken iPhones. That means, the chips inside the iPhone would support a rSAP service. Therefore my question: will it become available with iOS 6?
    Or do all the folks at Apple drive old cars/brands and don't even think of the rSAP feature? Can we somehow start to get a hearing by the Apple developers? According to my knowledge, rSAP is implemented with all premium handsfree factory units of the VW brands - Audi, VW, Skoda ... This should make a relevant user base!
    Any others with same wish and/or experiences? Comment here please!
    Regards,
    Olaf

    Hi Meg,
    could be several things:
    1. they forgot?
    2. none of their team members drives any VW branded car?
    3. nobody cares about the radiation inside the car?
    4. all have plugin holders for the iPhone?
    I am just surprised that rSAP is offered by a premium car maker, but Apple seems ignorant about its support.
    I am mostly concerned about the radiation when I use regular hands free. But I do understand that rSAP also has some limitations (only access to SIM contacts and other things, Wikipedia DE has a good full report, Wikipedia EN is much shorter).
    Regards,
    Olaf
