After update, why I'm still getting "You do not use the current version of Firefox" on the start page?
I am sure that I have updated to version 8 hours ago because when I look under "About Firefox" under "Help" it says "8.0.1" under the logo, and further down, "Firefox is updated." I tried to restart the computer, but the message won't go away. Something goes wrong with the update, and if so, what should I do?
I assumed that you use always the default value of old Firefox home www.google.com/firefox/ which has not been used in more recent Firefox released for a few months now, and Google is no longer updating it. Either ignore the message or change your home page in tools-> Options-> general

Error "you do not use the Type of appropriate phone cord.
Having a problem with my fax on my HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless. Tried to send a fax, it received a transmission error. I run fax test and she came back with "you do not use the type of appropriate phone cord. Nothing has changed since I last fax would be but I check the lines and connections, everything seems ok. Phone jack is connected to 1 line and Officejet 2 - ext"is connected to the phone. I use a dedicated phone # and the Officejet is set to auto answer. I can call and receive calls on the phone to connect to the Officejet. My hypothesis is that because I can use the phone without problem there nothing wrong with the phone line. Any ideas?
I had the same problem. I am using a phone cord 2-wire supplied with the printer and still get this error. It turns out that it is bound to have a telephone connected to the printer. If I unplug the telephone shape of the intake extension on the back of the printer, then the fax test passes. I used even a cord 2-wire on the telephone, but it seems that the mere fact of having a phone plugged into the outlet of expansion will cause this error.
Run the test without a phone plugged into the outlet of extension of the printer and you should be fine.
Worked for me!

I start the Firefox browser.
When the start page shows, I get just below the Google search box:
You are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web!Not unusual, but when I go on the site to update it looking for a minute and then tells me I have the current version of the software.
If you use the www.google.com/firefox as homepage site that previous versions of Firefox 3 use as homepage you can ignore the message about not using the latest version of Firefox on this page.
Google seems to keep this page.
The current versions of Firefox 4 + is no longer use this website from Google as home page, but use the build-in on: home page as the home page.
Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox if you still visit this site, and warns you that you are using an older version of Firefox and invites you to update.
You can use a different page than the homepage as subject: House or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle). -
After update, I get "You are not on the latest version of Firefox" WHY?
I'm on version 9, still I get this message (in question above) on my start page. I also get a popup saying E-mail "no valid certificate for aus.mozilla.org, accept for this session? I still say yes, because I recognize the name on the certificate. (Geotrust, I think that it is.) What is going on?
You are using the latest version which is Firefox version 9.0.1
From your description, it seems that if you still have the old start page for Firefox http://www.google.com/firefox hosted by Google as your homepage. This old default home page is no longer used (Firefox 3.6. * and earlier versions) about: home in use for Firefox 4.0
Ignore the message, change the home page about: welcome, replace it with another page or leave blank.

Why disable common features and hide completely to use a new version of firefox
When a new version of Firefox comes out the end, all to often when there new features or a programmer has a different idea of what they like from the previous version, the features are enabled by default and things are rearranged without any choice by the user. A concrete example is that when I installed Firefox 24 on my wife's computer he disabled the menu bar and put the tabs on top. To add insult to injury, there is no settings option to put the hind below! I do not how much someone loves the tabs on the top, the right way to handle these kinds of feature upgrades is to leave everything as it was in terms of parameters and display a web page that contains a button that says what each change with a Yes and no button so that the user can try if they want TO or not , and not just say (effectively) "we are the Lords and ask you to use this and we know better. If this method is too difficult then just don't change the settings and leave a page "what's new". I know it is free SW and contribute many dedicated, but to do your darnedest to confuse or annoy your users is not the way to do it. Imagine if you took your car to have a new mounted radio and when you got the brake pedal was in the backseat and the guy said "we like better that way.
BTW, to have the tabs just above the web pages you are watching way makes more sense to have the 3 lines now.
Hello
Most people answer on the support forum is volunteers of Mozilla (including me) so we are not able to comment on that kind of decision. We are not involved in choosing how new versions are gone.
The best place to make a comeback would be this page:
https://input.Mozilla.org/en-GB/feedback
If you want to make Firefox v24 v3 looks like, then you can use a theme such as Firefox 3 theme.

I've upgraded to the latest version of Firefox, but I always get a message on my home page that says "you are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web! »
You can see this message under the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old default Firefox homepage. It seems that this page is no longer maintained by Google. You seem to have the latest version of Firefox.
If you want as the Google search page as homepage, change your homepage to Subject: House (a new version of the old homepage Google/Firefox update is now integrated into Firefox).

I was not able to open my my Adobe Illustrator application after update. He says there are a few problems with the preference but after following the instructions, Illustrator still does not work and it keeps giving the samei question. Help, please.
I think you are talking after upgrade to CC 2015 you're not able to launch I. Also, I believe you speak for read only matter of preference.
After following the instructions please do not launch Illustrator and check your file preference if the permissions have been set correctly. A good way would be to get inside the preferences folder and then try to create a file manually. If it succeeds, please write to [email protected]
A few external links to help you set permissions:

I tried update several times and always get this response.
Uninstall from Control Panel shows me that I have the last installed level.
Have been removed and QuickStarts etc..Hi grushy,
Looking at the details of your system, you're on 8.0.1. Where said you that you need to update? It is on the Google/Firefox page? If this is the case, I found this post by cor - el which explains what is happening:
«This text on execution of is not the latest version of Firefox is hardcoded on the site www.google.com/firefox that previous Firefox used as well as the Google homepage seems not to want to keep this page more.» The current versions of Firefox is no longer use this site of Google as home page, but use the build-in on: home page as the home page. So Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox if you still visit this site and warns on the subject and invite you to update. You can use a different page than the homepage as subject: House or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle). »

I downloaded Firefox restarted 8.0.1, and it ran. However, I always get a message on my firefox start page saying: "you are not on the latest version of Firefox. But when I go to help and then on Firefox, it says I'm under 8.0 and I'm updating. Why do I get mixed messages?
The old homepage www.google.com/firefox is obsolete and is no longer used. You can restore your home page for the new default value, so you will get the new homepage.

You are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web!
Whenever I update my firefox, I get this message, you are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web!
It - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Page to start Firefox used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox. I think that Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox, as they hard-coded message 'upgrade' in this page - all versions of Firefox see this message.
From version Firefox 4, Firefox uses a 'local' with the address Start Page of Subject: House. It looks like the old start Page, but this isn't exactly the same thing.

Actually, it says it's 'you are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web! ", but I use the latest version of Firefox, FireFox 9.0, so there is nothing to be upgraded to! So, why my browser seems determined to force an upgrade on me I already have?
Do you not see that the message on the site www.google.com/firefox
The site www.google.com/firefox has been used in versions of Firefox 3.
The current versions of Firefox 4 + is no longer use this website from Google as home page, but use the build-in on: home page as the home page.
Google is no longer seems to keep this page and assumed that you are using an older version of Firefox, if you visit again you and this site warns that you are using an older version of Firefox and invites you to update.
You can ignore this message if you are running the latest version of Firefox, as shown in the window "help > About" (Firefox is updated).
You can use a different page than the homepage as subject: House or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle). -
I get a message: to use the 'java' command line tool, you must install a JDK. I tried 10 times to install without success. Help, please.
You probably have some of the older than the needs/desires software legacy Java installed.
Please see these sons of community message:
Just found this last Java does not work with El Capitan
This is the Apple link to the legacy version of Java 6.
Download Java for OS X 2015-001
First of all, I would like to try to identify what application generated the next message and update (delete) this request as the case may be. If you need to run Java then, as the Apple Support page says it's certainly preferable that your installation of Java entirely up-to-date with the Oracle's Java course. If you can get without Java, you should install it not - like the Flash, it should not be installed unless you have no choice.

I lost my bootcamp partition after update to El Capitan (solitary method T did not work for me: () is lost forever?)
I can't access my files or the partition from the finder
My bootcamp partition size is 380 GB.
This is all the information on the situation:
sudo TPG - r - vv show disk0
sudo fdisk/dev/disk0
diskutil list
sudo-l/dev/disk0 Gdisk
sudo dd if = / dev/rdisk0s4 account = 1 2 >/dev/null | hexdump - C
Sudo gdisk/dev/rdisk0
in IPARTITION
My bootcamp partition is referred to as a free space
in the finder
Thanks a lot for your help!
How do you have a 100 MB NTFS file system and free space after the partition of 100 MB. You have a MSR (100 MB), but your windows are the current MSD.
SIP is activated. Your MBR has no bootable entry, because it is not marked. Please describe in detail what steps were tried.
