When I download the new version of Firefox and drag it into my Applications folder a window pops up " The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." HUH?! any ideas of how I get these privileges?

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop

  • Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
  • Install the new version that you have downloaded
