Second problem although less of a concern - I am using Firefox 16.0.2.I tried to update to latest version and got the following message " ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved" I can still access my gmail account though my IPAD

I'm using Firefox 17.1.0, but there isn't : "firefox > options > advanced > network > connection - settings..." . I attach an image (catalan language). With oldest Firefox, I could change proxy settings without any problem.
Why is not that configuration now?
Thank you, Sergi.
hello, i've tried it with a fresh copy of a catalan firefox & it's showing up as expected for me...
please try if it's the same when you launch firefox in safemode once (then it might be an issue with an extension hiding this setting) or else try a reset of firefox.

Thanks a lot! i've used : Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems and with a reset Firefox to its default state, now it appears as usual.
Thanks again, Sergi.
