Why is downloading the latest applications running on the tool bar?

there is a blue bar across my screen with a moving circle after which it says"Downloading the latest applications"-What is this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Hello Addy.
If you could provide a [http://www.wikihow.com/Take-a-Screenshot-of-the-Entire-Screen screenshot], that would be perfect.
In any case, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

    why is downloading the latest software 4.3.2 taking 3 hours??

    It's 650MB, or thereabouts. And K-P is correct - it's 4.3.3 you should be after.
    How are you downloading? iTunes Check for Updates would have taken you straight to 4.3.3, and that's the recommended way to do this, unless you're having serious firewall.antivirus issues

  • After downloading the latest version of Firefox I am unable to display more than one website at a time in the tool bar at the top of my screen.

    Before I upgrades to your latest version I was able to display many websites at the same time in the tool bar at the top of my screen. Now I can only display one at a time and it is extremely annoying.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

    Look in your download's folder and if it's already in .app format drag it to your Applications folder. If it's a .mkg file open it and follow the on-screen directions.

  • Just updated from iOS 6 to 8, I find the tool bar in the iBooks too wide as it blocks the running title of my books. Anyone experienced this? Any solution?

    In the last few days, it seems that my computer has all of a sudden caught a virus.
    As others have pointed out, this isn't malware. That should not be your first (or even fifty-first) thought when your Mac starts misbehaving. For more on this topic, see my Mac Malware Guide.
    I know the last ditch effort (after cleaning and maintenance of disc verification and permissions and repairs, is to reboot from the system disc.
    You mention "cleaning and maintenance." Have you been running utilities claiming to do those things? If so, you may be the victim of an overly-zealous cleaning job, which has removed important files and damaged your system.
    If I'm understanding correctly, you're unable to open any applications at all... is that right? Do you have any backups? If you don't have backups, you're in a sticky situation, as it will be difficult to make backups in your current state, but you shouldn't try any kind of repairs without them. (Actually, you shouldn't do anything with your computer without backups, but this is especially important when something is going badly wrong.)
    If you have backups, reboot from your Snow Leopard install disc. From there, first, repair the hard drive with Disk Utility. Once that is done, assuming repairs were successful, reinstall the system. You can simply reinstall it on top of your current system, and it will replace any damaged or lost system files with new copies. (You'll also need to update the system via Software Update after reinstalling.)
    If you don't have backups, or if Disk Utility can't repair damage, or if the problem continues even after a reinstall, post back with those details.

    In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
    Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide.

    You're talking about the dock?
    To check on that, go to System Preferences > Dock > indicate your preference.
    I can get iTunes up, and safari, but i don't know how
    Not sure what you mean - if you can "get it up" - does that mean you can launch it? What do you not know?

  • How do you remove a coloured background I downloaded from somewhere from the tool bars

    I downloaded a ghastly coloured background to the tool bar area above the search engine field in the Firefox start page. I can't remember where I got it from and I wish to remove it as it is very distracting. I have been unable to find the appropriate settings controls within the firefox help section to do this. I would be most grateful if you could advise me on how to resolve this problem.

    You can revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Why is the bar that used to be on the bottom, now twice as wide and located just below the tool bar ? How can I get it back on the bottom where it belongs!

    FF 4...how do I get that oversized bar that used to be at the bottom of the browser, now located just below the tool bar, back to its rightful place (and half the width)????
    Sometimes I wonder why I go along with these updates, they seem to be more trouble than they are worth.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why is the mouse selection not working just below the tools bar.

    There is currently a very big blind spot when using the mouse. I am unable to select text using the mouse in a particular region of the window, just below the tools bar.
    This is not happenning with Internet Explorer.

    Recently both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • Why the pages 09 can't display the tool bar when I use the full vision?

       I have found that the numbers and the keynote always show the tool bar on the top, but pages can not,when I use the full screen.

    BL,
    Contrary to mende1's experience, I do not see the Toolbar in Fullscreen mode, even when accessing the Menu and Format lines by moving the cursor to the top of the screen.
    I guess that the designers figured that you may not want the toolbar to come down in what is a minimalist mode. A design choice that you can object to, if you wish, by submitting Feedback from the Pages menu.

  • How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent?  I have it set at "13", but it is very, very small on my screen.  I can't seem to change the appearance of the tool bar even when I try to "customize".

    How do I enlarge the font in messages received and sent?  I have the font set at "13", but the appearance on my screen is very, very small.  When I try to "customize the toolbar" to look like the tool bar above this message, I am unable to do so.  Please advise.  Thank you.

    Thanks MartinR, yes the Toggle bars can be adjusted so that I can see all the tracks - just in the smallest setting - however this also creates a huge area of grey which serves no other purpose than to "use up screen space". If this is deliberate then there is nothing one can do - since presumably the additional profit made on screen sales is more important to Apple, than the combined annoyance to those working on a 13" laptop. Of course a 15" screen or even 17" screen may make this wastage less obvious. Please indicate that this is all incorrect and explain why it is important to have space waiting "for additional tracks", even if I have no intention of making additional tracks. If that is the answer then perhaps additional space to the left and right of the timeline would be useful in case I wish to make a 30 minute film, so that it could be placed there without having to drag anything. It may be that I am expecting software than can be tailor adjusted, each parameter to the desired level as in professional items and since this is a cheap consumer program it is not possible.
    I bought Final Cut Pro for a lot of money (when it first appeared it was thousands and not just hundreds) but never used it since it was too complicated and tedious, but maybe there, this problem of screen wastage does not occurr, perhaps someone can advise! I could go back and reinstall it, but it was made for 10.2.8 and not 10.6.8 so it would not run on this macbook. I recently bought an old 15" TitaniumPowerbook (from 2005) and despite running at 1MHz the response time on it is "instantaneous" - amazing to not have the almost half second delay on many commands - graphics appear nearly immediately (just 5 milliseconds delay) and this makes working so much more enjoyable, not having the (350ms) stutter of 10.6.8 which we all get used to after our initial disappointment.
    Thanks for your help!
