My new macbook w/Yosemite only installs Firefox 42.0 even if my old iMac is running 43.0b7. What gives?

This is as stated above. In addition, some options in the preferences (for example, private browsing) are not available in the preferences screens.

"Use the custom settings for history" to view the current settings of the story and cookie, you can inspect and see them.
Selection of custom parameters does not alter the historical settings and cookies.
Firefox will display "Use the custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one story and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.
If all the history settings are default, custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."
"Never remember history" means that private browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" Gets a check mark.
"Use the custom settings for history" remains selected until one of the parameters of Cookie or history isn't the default to make you aware that the default setting changes have been made.

    This also happens in Firefox Safe Mode? Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    You can disable graphics hardware acceleration by doing the following:

    1. Click the menu button

      and select Options

    2. In the Options of Firefox window, click the Advanced tab, and then select general.
    3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    4. Now restart Firefox normally and see if the problems persist.

    Hello, this looks like a problem maybe caused by adware on your pc. Please go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.). also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place and various other tools such as the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

  • am not able to print from Firefox (used to) even if I can print from Safari... what should I try?

    have a Firefox to date and was able to print on HP printer from the internet until recently. Am sure that the problem is in a setting of Firefox so I can print from the internet using Safari. The printer is selected in the preferences and it seems to send a message to printer but only blank paper comes out... and ideas of what to try would be appreciated!

    I recommend you read this Support article on troubleshooting printing problems:

  • Mozilla said "your system does not meet the requirements to run Firefox ' but when I check the conditions, my system meets all. What gives?

    Requirements:
    Mac OS X 10.6 - check - 10.6.8

    Is there some sort of hidden requirement that I don't know?

    OK, when I take a closer look, it seems that your useragent is replaced by some kind of adware or toolbar. Please refer to this article in order to reset the user agent of firefox settings, then it should work: sites say that Firefox is obsolete or incompatible, even if it's the latest version

  • installation of CS4 student edition on a new macbook pro

    I just bought a macbook pro (which is not a hard drive) and I am wanting to install my edition CS4 student on it.

    As advised by adobe I copied the CD on a USB for installation and then copied on my new macbook to try and install it like this.

    I install the first drive fine, but then it asks me to insert CD 2 - when I open the file copied to disk two nothing happens... anyone know how to get around this problem / make it work!

    I saw on another thread that you can install cs4 trial version and enter your serial number to activate, but I don't know if it will work woth the student edition?

    (I first tried to install CS4 on my new laptop using the migration wizard, but it must have corrupted files, when I talked to adobe and they told me try the installation via a USB port)

    The only difference between the editions of the student and others is the license... the software is the same.

    As you said, you can download the demo version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

    Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important Instructions in the section on the pages of this site download and have cookies turned on in your browser, otherwise the download will not work correctly.

  • Extraction of files from a time capsule that contains data of 3 different MacBooks. If I added a new macbook but I wanted only to select files. How can I find these files?

    If I have 3 different MacBooks stored on time capsule but I want only to add the files selected to a new macbook how I do it,

    find and retrieve files from these devices? How to retrieve the complete set of files for an individual device?

    If I wanted to get back anything, what is the process for this?

    Thank you

    Bill

    The correct method is to migrate. Use the migration assistant in the Utilities folder.

    However migrate doesn't have the fine selection you're after, if you do not want the entire folder like documents.

    You could find to manual aperture and copy the sparsebundle to Time Machine works ok... Use just traverse other disks of the main options of TM TM it in the dock.

    It might not allow you to recover files but I found that I could copy them into TM and then paste the files by jumping out to finder.

    Or you can migrate to another place is to say USB drive plugged into the computer and then retrieve files in a simple copy and paste... Although permissions can be a pain, and you must correct them before you can copy stuff to your own computer files.

  • Passwords Firefox inside old iMac to MacBook Pro new

    Hello:

    I tried to use the add-on, exporting password. He works for export from my old iMac but when I tried to install exporter of password on my new MacBook Pro running Firefox v37.0.2, I get the message "password exporter could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 37.0.2.".

    So . . . .

    Is there another way to export and then import Firefox passwords?

    Thank you

    Thank you!

    I've used both and they both work.

    First of all, I transferred the files logins.json and key3db of my old Firefox my Firfox again on the new MacBook Pro. Alto! It worked!

    Then I registered Firefox Sync. It will be the end of my problems to keep up-to-date on both computers.

    BTW. I discovered that both computers running Firefox v37.0.2. Apparently the problem is with the password exporter. It cannot be installed on Firefox v37.0.2, but if it is installed before you upgrade to Firefox v37.0.2 that he continues to work.

    Thanks again!
