Firefox will not update for firefox 42.0
I'm currently under Firefox 30.0. I know there is a newer version, but when I go on Firefox and click on search for the update, it is said that I am up to date. Is there a way of put without having to uninstall Firefox?
If he has problems with the update or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a fresh install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the file to disk on the desktop image
- Firefox 42.0: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
- Basket of the current application of Firefox (open the Applications folder in Finder and drag the Firefox application to the trash) to do a cleanup (re) install
- Install the new version you downloaded
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data such as bookmarks are stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose data when you uninstall and (re) install or update Firefox, but make sure you do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

I see other people have this problem and hope that there is a solution. My Firefox browser is stuck on 16.0 and nothing happens when I try to update. It seems to download, but I'm still on 16.0.

I tried to update Firefox on my desktop since version 33.0 I continue to download and upgrade or install day, but nothing changes. Gmail still says the browser is not supported, and Mozilla says I use an older version and need to update. I downloaded from different places - the links provided when he said outdated sound and go directly to Mozilla.org for download. In fact, I uninstalled Firefox and tried to install instead of upgrade. It does not help. My computer says I have the latest version, but the internet plays an older version. Also my "firefox" button and another add on buttons are missing from the navigation bar, so I can't check 'about' to see what version of the browser itself says that it is running. How can I fix it? I use Firefox for years and this is the first problem I had that I can't fix.
And... your check of software I actually running version 11. Clearly, it is not up-to-date.
Your useragent is corrupt, or that you use Firefox 11.0 appears.

Under Firefox 14.0.1 Mac OS 10.6.8. When I get a message that I have a new update, I restart FF and then get a message that it cannot install the update and to be sure, I have no copy of FF running. But I only have a copy of FF on my Mac. I tried just to screw up FF so I could install the latest version, but FF is locked and I can't trash and start over.

Hello
After update for drivers AMD 13.1 on my 5770, Firefox will not launch; It doesn't, however, appears in the Task Manager. I want to emphasize that it will boot into Windows safe mode; When I opened it in safe mode, I used this time to deactivate all plugins, modules, extensions and created a new profile. This did not help. I also tried launching Firefox in its safe mode and had no luck with that either.
I encountered this problem once before, when trying to upgrade to an earlier version. I think I was moving from 12.1 to 12.4, but I'm not 100% sure of that. In the end, my solution was then to retrograde back to my previous driver. The steps mentioned in the previous paragraph has not helped at that time, not do a complete reinstall.
experience of 15 years, and that computer repair baffled me.
Thanks to all those who might be able to help.
