Why does the Firefox home page keep telling me I'm up to date when I'm not?

The Firefox home page, found at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/ or by redirection from www.mozilla.com or www.firefox.com, tells me my version of Firefox is up to date. It isn't.
I'm currently running 11.0 (and should have 12.0) but this has been happening for quite some time now; that page just seems to always say you're up to date, no matter what.

It's a web site bug. It's been reported as #748741.
To update manually,
# Click the '''Firefox button'''.
# Open the '''Help''' menu and choose '''About Firefox'''.
# Click the '''Check for Updates''' button.

  • Why does my firefox start page keep opening in a foreign language, no matter how many times i have uninstalled and reinstalled the US English version? also, why is it so slow to open, if it opens at all now?

    it wants me to believe it's opening in Spanish, but that is not the language that appears on the start page, looks like it might be German? also, since i have reinstalled, mozilla/firefox is extremely slow to open, if, in fact, it opens at all. if i stop the process, and then proceed to open something else via the toolbar, i.e., aol mail, etc., i get to where i need to be.

    If the Google (Firefox) or Yahoo home page is in the wrong language then see:

  • Why does the desktop icon CC Manager say my MUSE CC 2014 is updated when it is not?

    In order to upload my website modified files to an external server I am referred to updating Muse so that I have access to In-Browser Editing facility but the CC Manager insists that my version is the fully updated version.

    follow the suggestion here, CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed
    though what program is suggesting muse is not up to date?

  • Why does the Google home page scroll vertically in Firefox?

    It scrolls vertically only in Firefox. It doesn't scroll when I'm logged out, or if there is a special doodle.

  • Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button and othr times it says file, edit, view History, bookmarks, tools, help? I barely learn how to run one version of the page and then it changes

    Why does the fire fox page change, sometimes it is just an orange fire fox button on the top left that opens a panel with all the things listed in it and then it sometimes has a bar across the top that says File, Edit, View, History, bookmarks, tools, Help? I barely get used to using one type of set up and then it changes to the other without me doing anything??

  • How do I select features (e.g. news, investment info, sports news etc.) to the Firefox home page. It currently only contains a google search box ?

    My Firefox homepage currently only contains a Google search box. How do I select features (e.g. news, investment info, sports news etc) to the Firefox home page.

    The current build-in Firefox home page <b>about:home</b> doesn't have such extra features. If you need those then change the home page to <b>http://wwww<i></i>.google<i></i>.com</b>

  • Why does the Firefox Update that I accessed keep running and not complete its task?

    The routine updates that Firefox sends to me have always worked just fine. Now though the latest update I have been trying to access just keeps running and never completes the task. The motion bar that shows the user that the update is running never stops. I have come back minutes later to find the motion bar still running. I have tried to access this particular update several times now and it always does the same thing; just keeps running and never stops.

  • Firefox will install, and open the FIREFOX home page--------------but then is unable to download anything else-WHY

    Win7 on DELL XPS9000-----64bit. Successfully run IE, Safari and Chrome. Download Mozilla Firefox 17 (and other versions before 17)
    Firefox home page loads----------but nothing else loads! i.e., can not access other pages, such as nbcnews, etc.----Nothing.
    My laptop runs firefox nicely; I like firefox--------but I can't wait for the thing to never load.
    any suggestions will be appreciated.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • How do I re-set the Firefox home page address.

    ''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/910351''
    It has taken me days to find a way of contacting someone at Firefox to help an avid fan (Me) to get this far so I really hope you can help me.
    I downloaded Firefox Aurora about 10 days ago but had a problem with my PC so I reformatted the drive “C” back to zero and now I can’t get Aurora back as it was.
    It had the inspiring dark globe with a wonder of options to choose from but I now get the same globe with a great clean and fresh page to start with but a very annoying address that says only “about:home” can you please send me the correct address that should be showing and not a drop down that says “This Website does not supply identity information” If I download My favoured E-Mail client “Incredimail” It will take over Firefox with it’s horrid “MyStart” and the only way I can restore Firefox home page is if I have the correct address. Just encase you identify users by country I live in South Wales U.K.
    Thank you

    It was normaly me who asked this Q the firt time but I was re-directed to ask again after filling in and joining the forum. The Q is not yet resolved. Give it time Firefox is worth waiting for.

    Why does the Mobile Me prompt telling me I have entered an invalid password keep popping up when I moved to icloud long age?

    go to Tools, add-ons, then only disable java 6.0.22 ONLY, then you have to click on restart. That solved my problem.
