I can't get the latest version 21.0 to update on my computer.
I have downloaded & installed the new version, Help says I have the latest version. BUT the top of the browser screen is the old one. Firefox tells me I'm using an outdated version. Other programs tell me its an outdated versions. newer plugins dont work. The other user on my computer has correct version.
HOW DO I GET IT TO UPDATE WITHOUT LOSING MY PASSWORDS< BOOKMARKS ECT?????????????

can you try updating from menu Help->About Firefox. it will automatically update it.

Your user agent is "locked" to that older version by that FBSMTWB - Fast Browser Search - thing you have or had installed.

If the other user on the same PC has no problems as you do, the following save and trusted method should work in your case:
You get the orange Firefox menu button when the menu bar is hidden.
- Firefox menu button > Options
- View > Toolbars (press F10 to display the menu bar)
- Right-click empty toolbar area
