Is it possible to stay out of the update string, so I can stay on an earlier version of Firefox as he continues to go very slowly?
Firefox has recently been running very slowly. He uses a lot of memory. I have to close and restart one or two times a day, so I was wondering if there is a way to avoid updates and continue to use an outdated version of Firefox?
Your stay with an outdated version of Firefox leaves you open to specialize, known security holes, but also a potential for bugs and other problems. I'd love to help you solve your problems with Firefox, so you can continue to enjoy and use the latest and most secure version!
First of all, I would like to uninstall all the addons unnecessary and undesirable. Often, issues in Firefox are not at all the problems of Firefox, but are rather a buggy or an addon of misconduct.
In addition, read the article on Firefox is slow.
If you can not Firefox any faster, please let me know.
To change your preferences to update Firefox, read https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Updating%20Firefox#w_how-do-i-configure-update-31optionssf32preferencessf . But remember, this is NOT recommended and may cause more serious problems.

I have upgraded to a netbook linux Ubuntu 12.04 17 Mint and was unaware of subsequent Sync FF28 changes. I don't have to dissociate the former firefox and the clean install of Mint17 has the new synchronization version 29? I think so. How to untie the old account so I can sync the new facility? The account had only one machine sync to it.
Sorry, your data is not recoverable from the old system of synchronization when you use the new synchronization version. The connection method is different it was with the old system, which used a 'key' in addition to the e-mail address and the password for the account. When moving from one account synchronization that Firefox data must be on the machine that has been updated to Firefox 28 to a later version when connecting to the server, the first time. That's because the new version sends the data to a new server using the same e-mail address and password, but the new 'key' is not identical to the old version - it is generated differently than before.
Here are the instructions for the update to the new sync:
Synchronize your bookmarks Firefox, history, passwords, etc.In conclusion, no Sync version was intended to be used as a backup media for a single device, it was intended to synchronize Firefox data between multiple devices. Some users have done work with a single device, but not during the last synchronization was performed with the old version and then the user attempted to retrieve their data with the new version and a new operating system or an operating system reinstalled - which has no data of Firefox.

I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
It is not usually necessary to create an exception for the certificates.
Possible causes are that a server does not send the full (intermediate) certificate chain or self signed certificates. -

Possibility to crop out of the picture? Possible?
Hello
I was wondering if there is a way to crop out of the picture? It would be great if sometimes you prefer a culture that goes outside the framework, and in post processing in photoshop, we could set the bottom later. This has been discussed before? Is this something that is possible in the current version of LR? Or is this a feature that will make in a future version of LR?
You can use 'ladder' in manual lens correction in LR3.

Firefox keeps advising me up-to-date even if a few Add ons are not compatible with the newer version. Although I don't want to be notified when an update is available, I won't update if the add ons are not compatible. Also, advising me update is useless because I will not refresh firefox when all add ons are not compatible.
Is it possible to put the automatic notification about the availability of updates to appear only when all add ons are compatible?
You can install this extension to see the information of current compatibility on the subject: addons page.

Many of the Add-ons that I use the most are not yet compatible with the latest version of Firefox, and until they release compatible versions I want to go back to my previous version of Firefox. I didn't back up my Firefox files until I updated, I'm looking for a way to re - download the latest version 3.x.
Which modules are they, there may be alternatives or compatible versions that have not been picked up by the Add-ons Manager. Some add-ons can never be updated.
Get off at Firefox 3.6. * You can uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option 'remove my Firefox personal data '. If you select this option, it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install Firefox 3.6. * available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your favorite courses, passwords etc.
I recommend, to avoid possible problems with decommissioning, accessing your profile folder and delete the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Delete these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, check their compatibility and cancel the toolbar customizations.

How can I return to a version of Firefox that is compatible with the Norton Toolbar?
After that I have updated to the latest version of Firefox, the Norton toolbar is disabled. I would go back to a previous version that is compatible with the Norton toolbar. Can I do this?
For security reasons, it is preferable not to decline to 40 Firefox. I could refer you to this thread for a more in-depth review and suggestions: screwed up why Firefox NEW Norton Internet Security?

I meet a few sites that do not support Safari so I need to download Firefox. But I use Mac OS 10.5.8 and so I need an earlier version than is available for download on your site. Can you help me?
All of the previous version are sorted here:
Versions of Firefox everything
However, I think that your OS is supported, too. Check here:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember that the previous versions have security problems. The latest security updates, you MUST upgrade to the latest version. That's what I would recommend. Thank you!

Difficulty it has disabled my updates and I can't reinstall the update files and I can't even report
My automatic updates did not work: hang on to 2% or some patch downloaded to diagnose the so-called rpoblem difficulty he solved the problem but then said I had to register/reinstall update files; When I go to the microsoft website to reinstall, I can't do that... then I tried to present a report on the relocation failed... and I can't do same! what the * is at my PC, I tried the thing "net stop wuauserv" and who did nothing I tried the regsvr32 MSXML3.dll thing (as well as other dll files) and doing anything please help. Suggestions? Uninstall the update files? Back to a Restore Point? I have Windows XP with microsoft security essentials and NO OTHER antispyware
1. you have completely removed the AVG Free before you've installed MSE (originally).
2 and should have removed entirely the Norton application (or free-trial) before (the original) that you have installed AVG Free.
3. only one 1 antivirus should be installed & loading at startup at any given time.
[Note: McAfee System Scan Plus is installed, load at startup or include no real-time protection.]
4 yet the computer is still at least ten 10 reviews of security updates missing, one dating from February 2011.
5. misguided use of registry cleaners may have something to do with all this. [1]
Given the above (especially #4), my recommendation stands.
======================================================================
[1] TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.
