  • How can I turn off auto update?

    I had FF never check the value. On its own, this parameter was changed to "Check for updates but let me choose". However, the parameter is actually, "install automatically". How can I fix it? I can decide on updates all by myself.

    The change was 28 V to V 29.

    There was a previous way by going into the Options menu to turn off updates, but after this, when you go to help > on Firefox, it would update regardless of this setting.

    You can set these prefs in about:config to turn off the automatic update:

    App.Update.auto - false

    App.Update.Enabled - false

    App.Update.Silent - false

  • With this update my computer not turn off. Clears the screen, but this is all about.

    This computer is the new 12-inch mac that came out this spring.when I've updated about a month ago, it would not turn off. I got tired of hold down the b power button to turn it off. I returned it for a back earlier upward. It automatically updated again and here I am in the same disorder. I think I'll just close the lid and stop worrying in this regard.

    Stop your Mac. Use the power button if you wish. Now start with the SHIFT key is pressed. This will start in Safe Mode, with all extensions turned off. Safe mode is slow to start, so give it time, it checks a lot of staff. If it works fine in Safe Mode, restart normally. If it works now, you are finished.

    If the problem comes back after a reboot, you have an extension conflict. Disable all extensions via system preferences. To isolate which extension is at fault, turn on an extension at the same time, restart in the meantime, until you find bad.

  • The new App Store for El Capitan update has locked up my macbook pro.  Reboot got about 3/4 fact and the machine stops. Turned off the power and turn it on again for nothing doesn't.  How in my machine to begin troubleshooting?

    The new App Store for El Capitan update has locked up my macbook pro.  Reboot got about 3/4 fact and the machine stops. Turned off the power and turn it on again for nothing doesn't.  How in my machine to begin troubleshooting?

    The problem is most likely an attempt to update a system malfunction prior it is probably a problem with your computer, not the El Capitan.

    Start by:

    Reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

    MacIntel: Reset of the controller (SMC) system management

    Start in Safe Mode , and then re - start normally. It's slower that a normal start, so be patient.

    If you are unable to start;

    Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

    Please make sure that you back up.

    1. Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Utility Menu appears.
    2. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.
    3. Select the withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) entry of the volume in the list aside.
    4. Click first aid icon in the toolbar. Wait until the button is active, then click it.
    5. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
    6. Select Reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

    Also, see this tip for user: basic steps for the OS X upgrade.

    If this doesn't get you;

    Install Yosemite or El Capitan, from scratch

    Backup if possible before proceeding.

    Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime hold down the command and R buttons until the Apple logo appears. When the Utility Menu appears:

    Select utility disc in the Menu Utility, then click the continue button.

    When loading disk utility, select the volume (entered into withdrawal, usually Macintosh HD) from the list of devices.

    Click Delete in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.

    Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).

    Click on the apply button, then wait for the done button to activate and click on it.

    Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.

    Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  • I can't watch videos from Netflix, YouTube. Firefox updated itself and I had problems of hue. Flash is updated to 16.0 but it turns off. I use a windows 8

    Flash 11.9 needed to be updated so I did and now have 16.0 but the 11.9 is still in my Add ons and continues to turn on say it needs an update and has been blocked. The 16.0 turns off even if I am constantly turning on and off the 11.9. I have no option to delete each plugin despite all the 'help' in the guides online. I get a blank screen on Netflix, its success and miss out on Youtube (depending on if 16.0 has not extinguished itself again) and I can't watch half videos posted on Facebook. It's extremely frustrating and yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled sliver with no change in the situation.

    If you use extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) which can block content (e.g., Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure that these extensions are not blocking content.

    Hello Subocz E M.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. I see that you had problems adding pieces and turn off Genius. I know how it is important to be able to add music to iTunes. I'm happy to help you.

    Since you are being invited to turn off Genius, you can add music, please use the following information to resolve these two issues:

    Turn on or off the Genius

    If iCloud music library is enabled, you cannot disable Genius.

    Choose file > library > Genius (toggle Genius).

    Turning off the Genius Genius Genius Shuffle shuts and and the Genius Mix.

    12 iTunes for Mac: use Shuffle Genius, Genius or Genius Mix playlists

  • Updated FF, stuck computer had to turn off the computer and now will not start.

    Toshiba Satellite PC running Windows 7.

    Received message there was an update for Firefox. Manually, clicked on it. After restarting the computer (as shown), I clicked on the Firefox shortcut icon and the Office froze. CTRL/Alt/Delete didn't work - nothing worked so forced the laptop turns off, press and hold the power button until it did.
    WAITED a few minutes and then turned the monitor never came to top - just stayed black. After a second attempt, that the computer turns on, the keyboard lights up but screen stays black. NO.
    problems before trying to update to Firefox.

    I write this on my Mac, as there's no way to use the PC with a black screen.

  • Last Firefox update turns off my USB2 ports.

    My laptop worked fine, but then I hit a problem because my USB2 ports won't work; My USB3 ports was working but not 2.

    I tied everything back to the 16 June when I installed the latest Microsoft and Intel Graphics update. Right now I've also updated Firefox to the latest version.

    I couldn't solve the USB2 problem so did a restore of the system around June 12 and everything worked fine. I put the USB2 problem down to the Intel updated and reloaded all Microsoft patches and everything worked fine. Then I upgraded to Firefox and restart my USB2 ports do not work. A few minutes ago, I completely uninstalled Firefox, restarted the laptop and the USB ports are working fine again.

    I guess that the last Firefox creates a conflict somewhere but where so I was wondering if someone might be able to help the goodness.

    My system is running Windows 8.1 64-bit and I loaded Kaspersky Internet Security. As I said, everything was going fine until I updated Firefox with the latest patch. With no Firefox, now I had to Windows 11 as default.

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the suggestions - tried all that and v30 still knocks my USB2 ports.

    I read on the Internet about other users lose their mouse touchpad once v30 has been installed, so I guess that Firefox is somehow contradictory in a way with particular laptops; mine being one of them.

    In the end I found a link that allows me to install v29.0.1 and after having turned off the automatic updates, all is well again. I think I'll try an update again once us get around to v32, but in the meantime, I'm happy to stay with v29.0.1.
