Your site thinks my version of FF is out of date and that I'm using Windows7.

I am not.

I'm running FF v 25.0 on Mac OS 10.6.8

(Netalyrz also thinks I'm running FF6 on Windows. Your troubleshooter also thinks I'm running FF6 on Windows.)

'About Firefox' shows v 25.0

Resetting all the ".useragent." prefs in this support article - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-say-firefox-outdated-or-incompatible - will fix that OS related pref.

Note that you have a general.useragent.override pref that identifies you as Firefox/6.0:

  • Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:6.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0

You need to reset that pref mentioned by cor-el above.

Thanks for your reply. Before I do anything - This is showing my OS as Windows7. I am actually using Mac OSX v10.6.8

Does this mean that the problem is more than a Firefox config issue?

Thankyou to all who replied.

You were all quite right and the last post fixed the problem.

(I wonder how the config came to think I was running Windows7 when it was actually an iMac??!!)
