I support a very large school district running Firefox 3.6. What will happen at the end of life date? In the online environment, we test this week.
I run the test center for a very large school district with over 120 students of k. We have a current deployed at base of 54 client machines of k using Firefox 3.6. We have not upgraded for many reasons, of which the most important is to remove the possibility of use in navigation private students and dealing with plugin-updates for the digital non-born (read dumber than a bag of hammers users) that make up the majority of the customer base.
We test ESR now, but only discovered this end of life for 3.6 is tomorrow, 4/24. We are currently in the middle of the scale of the State of online tests. The question is, what will happen tomorrow, when the browser will end of life. ESR wiki mentions that "an update to the current version of Firefox Desktop will be available through the Update Service Application"
So the main question is, are my students/teachers goes to get a popup telling them that they have updated the browser if we have already turned off updates? If so, can I I disable remote using SCCM, because there will be all sorts of havoc.
Please advise as soon as possible and thank you in advance.
An addon like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disable-private-browsing-pl/ can help, or http://kb.mozillazine.org/User:Dickvl / Private_Browsing_disable (don't forget, this is beyond what this forum can help you with if you need help making these changes).

What will happen to my Itunes when Apple music runs?
I just bought an Ipod touch, and with it, I got a free trial of Apple's music. I also bought a gift card to Itunes at the same time. I bought $15 worth of music and learned later that the trial is for 3 months.
The FAQ section is not clear on what is happening to the itunes when the subscription runs. I lost $15 and lose $230 on a miniature computer very expensive? Because I really bought so I could play music.
I am a student full-time and saved my money to do this, without realizing that I might have to pay a monthly/yearly subscription just to buy more music and play.
If anyone can help me with this issue, I would be very grateful.
Thank you
Samhoku
You will not be able to play pieces of music from Apple, but keep the individual purchases of the song and the music from sources other than iTunes.

I use Windows XP and care April 2014 if I always use the it, what will happen after that Microsoft no longer supports it? My computer will become unusable? It works great and I would keep it if I can. I use a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop. Some people have told me that "nothing will happen" and others tell me that my computer will be more vulnerable. I use ESET NOD 32 and Malwarebytes. They tell me that they should still continue to work. I am told that because my computer was purchased in September 2008, he cannot me upgraded to Windows 7. I'm not a geek and would need assistance "passage" my files from one computer to the other as well. And then what to do with my old top office. I'm very worried and I had to face the fact that Microsoft is not going to deliver any security updates patches after April of 2014.
I can't wait to hear from someone on this problem and more just to go out and invest in Windows 8! Thank you.
I can tell you one thing, all or almost of windows xp device drivers will disappear from the computer manufacturers support websites and will reappear on all these shady sites who claim to be download for free but comes with unwanted software. Download the latest device drivers and keep several copies of them and download them to your skydrive or dropbox account fo guard.
I doubt that will happen. I've seen Windows 2000 drivers still on websites mfg.

Recently, whenever I run Firefox, an arrow appears, pointing down and quickly disappears to the top of the screen. I'm not trying to download something, it is whenever I run Firefox. At first I thought I was seeing things, but verified by concentrating just to catch, it appear and disappear. See no reason for this. I use Firefox for years and it's never happened before. Furthermore, it does not appear on my IE browser.
Never mind. I found the problem and it was a program that was trying to download it, but couldn't all the time. I removed from the Firefox download page.
Status: solved!

This problem started about two weeks ago.
Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.
Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".
Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.
- Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
- "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected
Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

I have been using the wizard of Frontpage 2000 database to develop a main set of forms that link in my database access 2000 on the side (non-public) back to my site. I realize that the two programs are considered as obsolete, but unfortunately, I can't find a replacement web development software which is what makes the wizard, unless I want to get heavily into the code (kind of like go back).
I have windows 7 pro and use virtual xp to run frontpage 2000 for my Web site and data-based forms.
What happens exactly when the XP support runs out? Y at - it a purchase option to continue with the updates, where I am, as it estimated 15 to 30% of the existing Microsoft customers who are always based on the use of XP will be "punished" to explain their desire to stay with a product that has succeeded all too well? (at least for me as far as where this feature goes)

What does support mean to you?
After April 8, 2014, technical support for Windows XP will not be available, including the automatic updates that help protect your PC. If you continue to use Windows XP, your computer may become more vulnerable to viruses and security risks. For more information, see does that mean if my version of Windows is no longer supported?

whenever I run FireFox, he launched (opens) two sessions of the programme
I tried to uninstall and reinstall the latest version. Also deleted all of my shortcuts. Don't know what else to try.
You can check the setting of the homepage:
- Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage
Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).
You can use the SearchReset extension to reset preferences to default values.
Note that the SearchReset extension runs only once and then uninstalls automatically, so it will not appear on the page "> Firefox Add-ons" (topic: addons).
If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

Don't run Firefox and I can't go in the Profile Manager to make a new profile.
Whenever I try to launch Firefox it does not open. I had this problem before and I fixed it by using the Profile Manager, I'm doing the same thing this time. However, the Profile Manager will not open at all.
It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

Okay, lets go through this step by step, and I hope that we can get you operational return here:
1 double-click on the Orange Fox on your desktop to open Firefox.
2. in this window (I know he will try to open the page Wildblue, but go ahead and ignore this). I want you are looking for in the upper left corner of the window. She should have "file edit view history bookmarks Tools Help" all listed there (maybe more, maybe less).
OR you will have a single button that says Firefox. If this is the case, click on the Firefox button, and then click Options. Go to step 4.
3. click Tools, and then, at the bottom, click on Options.
4. in the window that opens, you should see the word "General", click it. Then, a little down inside the window, you should see a box that has the homepage next to him. Click on the button "Restore Default".
5. now, click OK. Then close Firefox. Open again. Let me know if you still go WildBlue or not.

Mac OS on a Macbook Pro 13', early 2015 10.11.1
One of the possible reasons are that if the preferences page has been added as a second 'Home tab' in which case it will be displayed in each new window (Cmd + n) and every time that you click the Home button.
To verify that you can use the preferences, the general Board, the section to start page, as described in this article: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings.
In the area of the Home Page, look for a vertical bar separating two addresses of character. A simple example with short URLS:
https://www.mozilla.org/|about:preferences
The bar certainly can be hard to spot with long URLs, but when you find it, delete everything to the right of the bar, then the bar itself (I suggest to remove the last bar so things don't accidentally get it together).
