I updated to Firefox 8.01 and confirmed that it is the current version. However, both Google and Firefox do not recognize my current verision - these sites indicate that my version is 3.5.7. Why?

I've updated (more than once) to Firefox Version 8.01. When I check the Firefox Help: About, it confirms the version number and indicates that it is the current version. Google, however, when I try to use G-Mail or + Google, gives me a message that my version of Firefox is no longer supported (and provides a link to download the current version). In addition, Firefox itself, when I tried to use the help: menu option to submit your comments, indicates that I can't use this option until I first updated to the current version. Apparently, even though I've updated, there are some markers or indicator, which is not updated since a previous version to indicate which version of this browser Web sites is running on my computer. I would like to get this resolved, because it prevents me from doing a few things I want to do. Furthermore, I just watched the dialog below, following the comment "we have made some assumptions about your current browser...". ', also indicates that my current version is the 3.5.7.

You have a pref general.useragent.override that identifies you as Firefox/3.5.7

  • Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; RV:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

  • 'Vulnerable' plugins are already updated. Firefox does not recognize updates!

    I've updated my VLC plugin to latest software version 2.1.3 and the plugin. Yet, Firefox says it is 'vulnerable' for no reason. I also stopped and restarted firefox after the update, and it did not have a hint of difference.

    In addition, Adobe Reader 9.5.5 is the version of Reader 9 and is perfectly fine according to my Add-ons Manager, but yet, it is also 'vulnerable' according to the plugin to update checkfor absolutely NO reason. When I've upgraded to Adobe Reader X many years ago that he did not at all with firefox as the plugin had serious problems and was not easy to use even outside firefox. I then reinstalled 9 and never returned.

    Why Firefox cannot recognize the plugins updated and said they are vulnerable, and yet gives zero why?

    Finally, if I go to the Add-ons Manager and click the "update now" in this page it only brings me to the page worthless telling me that the plugin was blocked, not knowing where to go to update. It's a really irritating problem that you will try the upgrade and you don't go to a Web site that will allow you to do so, it will take you to a page that says absolutely NOTHING of value.

    If you want to replace the VideoLAN\VLC\ program files that have not been updated with the win32, such as npvlc.dll Installer (and others?):

    You can get the Zip Package vlc - 2.1.3 - Win32.zip linked here and extract the content: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

    If you do not want to I would consider a complete uninstall VLC media player 2.1.3 then a resinstall.

  • Last update of Firefox do not recognize Flash drive

    I restarted my computer this morning, as he ran a little slugglish. Restarting launched as well an update of Firefox and a Flash update to newer versions. I uninstalled Flash several times with the Flash uninstaller. I even brought back to 10.3. Same result. Firefox is not simply recognizing the installation and I am unable to view Flash content. On any page that requires it, the "Install missing Plugin" button appears. Whether 10.3 or the last 11.4, there does not exist in the Add-ons Manager. I installed the latest real Player as well, in which case it had something to do with the question. No apparent connection. No problems with the facilities themselves don't have been experienced - everything going as planned.

  • All of a sudden, after a update of firefox, I get "this connection is untrusted" for Facebook, no matter if I use http: or https:, WHY?

    All of a sudden, after a update of firefox, I get "this connection is untrusted" for Facebook, no matter if I use http: or https:, WHY? Here are all the details of the error message:

    This connection is Untrusted

    You asked Firefox to connect safely to facebook.com, but we cannot confirm that your connection is secure.

    Normally, when you try to connect safely, sites will present a reliable identification to prove that you're in the right place. However, the identity of this site cannot be verified.
    What should I do?

    If you normally connect to this site without problems, this error can mean that someone is trying to impersonate the identity of the site, and you should not continue.

    This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HST) to specify that Firefox didn't connect safely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.

    Facebook.com uses an invalid security certificate.

    The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

    (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

    (Also included a screenshot).

    COR - el said

    You can check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click on the clock icon in the Windows taskbar.

    You can retrieve the certificate and check details such as WHO issued the certificates and the expiration dates of certificates.

    • Click on the link at the bottom of the error page: "I understand the risks".
    • Let Firefox recover the certificate: "Add Exception"-> "get certificate".
    • Click on the button "View" and inspect the certificate and the Coachman, who is the issuer.

    You can see more details like the intermediate certificates that are used in the Details tab.

    If you cannot inspect the certificate by "I understand the risks", then try this:

    Open the chrome URI by pasting or typing this URI in the address bar to open the window "Add the Security Exception" and to check the certificate:

    • chrome://pippki/content/exceptionDialog.XUL

    In the field location type and paste the URL of the Web site

    • retrieve the certificate via the button 'Get certificate '.

  • Why am I suddenly "USB not recognized, one of the devices USB has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize"

    Hi all. If anyone out there in Cyber Land can solve this problem for me so I've personally you will issue an eight-pack of ice-cold beer (or a bottle of wine for the ladies lol)...

    I'll try not to waffle too guys, so here's...

    Right my PC running Windows XP. I also have itunes installed on my PC (I have an iphone 4). Upward until yesterday my iphone and itunes were working well, (once I plugged my iphone in the itunes USB port recognised that my iphone was plugged and synchronization was fine etc.).

    But now when I plug my iphone to PC to sync with itunes, I get a pop up box on the lower right part of the screen that reads... "USB not recognized one of the USB devices has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize."

    After visiting about 5 different sites now "Ways to solve this problem", believe it or not, I still have the problem bloody! :(

    A site proposed shutdown PC and unplug it from the power supply, then plug it back start-up and back... this as did not work!
    The other they say that I should go to Device Manager, uninstall all the USBs then restart... it did not work either.
    Tried a system restore
    Tried to reinstall itunes

    When I check the names USB in Device Manager, there is one who reads unknown device. I am literally pulling what's left of my hair now. I tried to solve this problem for almost 2 days now and still no joy. That's why no matter what input you guys would be very appreciated. I'm no PC Wizard, so please, don't think you're patronizing me if you break down things step by step for me.

    Thank you comrades, cordially, Freddy frustrated. :)

    Another said I should go to Device Manager, uninstall all the USBs and restart.

    Usually, this works... but can be very dangerous, unless you have a PS/2 keyboard.

    I also assume that you have tried all other USB ports on the computer. tried a verified USB device (for example, a flash drive) in the USB usually when you plug in your iPhone. and I tried your iPhone in another computer (I know it's rare for an error message Windows really means what he says, but sometimes the material lacks).

    Is the charge of the iPhone when it is connected to the USB port (I don't think)?  This happened to me recently, but a reboot fixed it.  I guess that that happened to you.

    I guess that you don't see the error messages in Device Manager or you must declare them.

    You can uninstall all USB devices that do not exist as follows:

    • Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    • Enter the following command and press enter

    Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices = 1

    • Start the Device Manager by typing the following in the same command prompt window

    devmgmt.msc

    • In Device Manager, click the view menu and select "Show hidden devices".
    • You should see a category just after "Non-Plug and Play drivers" named "other devices."  Chances are that there will be a big exclamation yellow mark beside it.  When you expand the "other devices" you should see several non identified "USB devices."  Uninstall all this.
    • Reboot (with the iPhone NOT connected).
  • "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." Why it does not recognize my device?

    Some time ago I had a huge problem with my computer (I think that my mother-in-law accidentally downloaded a virus) and I took it to a repair shop where they wiped out completely and replaced the hard drive.  Since I got it back when I try to use my wireless mouse and plug the nano receiver he said 'one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.  Why he says this?  And what can I do about it if anything?  I already tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling, but that did not work because as soon as I plugged it it again once he says the same thing.  So I don't know what is happening or how to fix it.  Please help me!

    Hi, I wonder if anyone can help?

    I upgraded my Windows PC 8.1 to Windows 10.  Since the upgrade of the touchscreen / screen rotation functions are no longer available or work.

    I noticed that the touchscreen HID device is not installed and I think the same for the rotation of the screen.

    I remember a similar problem with the upgrade of Windows 8 to 8.1.  Can anyone suggest how the features of screen rotation and touch screen can be restored?  He was under the rpevious windows version?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Loaded the latest drivers from HP today and the problem seems to be resolved.  Operation of toch screen is back.  Screen rotation is back.  Thank you HP.

  • 35.0.1 Firefox does not recognize that the last flash is installed

    There was a series of updates to flash, and I kept with them as helped my package manager. However, firefox is not recognize later as the last.

    topic: plugins, shows that the version is 11.2.202.425
    My Package Manager shows that the version is 11.2.202.440

    Firefox and my package manager agree on the way to the .so file. Actually, I copied the path to the file so on firefox and checked in the terminal and it is the version of the right package AND chains told me that the incorporated itself into the .so version string is the most recent. Yet, somehow, firefox really, really think it is version.425 instead de.440.

    I restarted firefox. I even rebooted, even if it should not be necessary.

    Currently, this version of Flash has been marked as vulnerable:
    Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.440 and earlier for Linux

    It's weird that package and everything: plugins page is different however.

    This also occurs when you update to the latest: [11.2.202.442]

  • Error: One of the USB devices attached to this system has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.

    tried already everything written here. When I plug my USB device (3 of them) my Windows a sad of the USB devices attached to this system has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. I tried plugging it into another winXP machine, it won't work. Can you help me?

    Original title: usb malfunction

    His salvation,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    1. What are the troubleshooting steps you have tried so far?
    2. If it works much earlier? If so, did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
    3. What type of USB device you are using?

    As you mentioned that the USB device does not work when plugged into a WinXP machine, it may be a problem with the device itself. In addition, the question may also arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows.

    Therefore, I suggest you try the following methods (skip the ones that you already tried) and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Please try the fixit (s) provided below which will help you solve common problems associated with devices and USB ports.

    If method 1 does not work, try Method 2.

    Method 2:

    Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

    1. Open Manager devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
    3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    5. Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

    If the problem persists, go to method 3.

    Method 3:

    This method will install the latest drivers from device to your USB device.

    1. Click the Start button, type Windows Update in the search box, and then click Windows Update in the results pane.
    2. Click find updates. When the scan finished, click optional review updates.
    3. Click the check box next to the update, and then click install updates.
    4. If you are prompted, read the license agreement, then click I agree.
    5. Follow the instructions on the screen to download and install updates.
    6. If you are prompted, restart your computer.

    More information: Update a hardware driver that is not working properly

    If the device fails after updating the driver, you can try to roll back the driver with its previous version.

    Restore a driver with its previous version

    Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.
