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.

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?

FF seems to work OK, although some add-ons say that they are not compatible with this version of FF, but my computer (same version) at work that is also running XP Professional, run these add-ons.
Hi greghaus,
You can see this message under the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old default Firefox homepage. This page is no longer maintained by Google.
You should try to change your home page:
topic: Home
If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base How to set the home pagearticle.
Hope this helps

FAFSA is the form to fill out for financial aid for College. I need to fill out the form later for the spring semester of next year. Until I'm able to fill it in online and save and send to school. When I'm on the site and click on fill out a form, a message came that I didn't have the right version of my browser, so I downloaded the latest version of Firefox, and then restarted the computer and is returned to the site to try again and got the same message. Then I had two shortcut icons on my desktop and I can't say that one is for the latest version of Firefox.
When you download the latest version, it removes the last version that you had previously downloaded?Fafsa.gov site can't stand no more recent than the version of Firefox 3.6.x. It's their choice.

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.

Until I upgraded to your latest version, I was able to view several sites at the same time in the toolbar at the top of my screen. Now, I can view only one at a time, and it is extremely annoying.
You can use one of them to set toolbars to display.
- Firefox menu button > Options/preferences
- View > toolbars (press F10 to display the hidden menu bar)
- Right click on empty toolbar space

If the latest version of Firefox is 17, why get invited to day 14.0.1 when I am running version 12?
I am running Windows 7 64-bit OS, and I currently version 12 of Firefox are installed (updated in May). I am building a browser vs. OS compatibility matrix, so I did a little 'Googling' today to see what Firefox versions are currently supported. When I opened Firefox to see if I was running the latest version, I got a prompt to upgrade to 14.0.1, yet the latest version is 17. This causes me some confusion. In addition, some sites offer Firefox 64-bit is not supported in WIndows and others say that it is in the Act supported. Could someone please confirm or deny this?
How many times have you run Firefox in the last 4 months? Remember that any postponement of this update? If this update has been previously downloaded, but never installed, maybe the installer wants to finish this work before check you for a newer version.
Mozilla does not have a 64-bit version of Firefox for Windows release. The 32-bit version works well on the 32-bit and 64-bit Windows versions.
There is a version of 64-bit third-party named Waterfox you could look in, but I suspect that any gain in the ability to use memory would be offset by reduced with modules compatibility...

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.

Why keep having to update the latest version of firefox, whenever I have a screen.
I still have to download the latest version of firefox. Every time I do a screen it reads "you are not on the latest version of firefox, update today to get the best of the web".

Your string UserAgent in Firefox is marred by another program you have installed.

If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access this page.

Right-click the preference and select reset
Then restart Firefox -
I start the Firefox browser.
When the start page shows, I get just below the Google search box:
You are not on the latest version of Firefox. Update today to get the best of the Web!Not unusual, but when I go on the site to update it looking for a minute and then tells me I have the current version of the software.
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).
