On my Firefox start page, a message says, "you are not on the latest version of Firefox. But when I go to help, and on Firefox, this window says I'm under 8.0 and Firefox is updated. So, why am I conflicting message? Thank you
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The old homepage www.google.com/firefox is obsolete and is no longer used.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.

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?

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.

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.

Hope this helps

Yesterday, I tried to switch to 8.0.1 twice. Both times the upgrade process seemed to work. I downloaded the files, clicked on install, he says it's "housekeeping" (removal of the old version?), but in the end, I'm still under the old version even.
I've updated home on my laptop, no problem.

Google keeps it no more so either ignore the message or change your homepage. If you want a single search page then use the topic: Home as your homepage.

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). -
