Automatic firefox update fails. Does not connect to update server why?
I usually get an update message every day that pops on my laptop. When I click update now, it tries to connect to the update server and stays there for hours and hours. I usually give up at the fourth hour. I have been trying to update for the past 2 months now.

- Download a new copy of the Firefox program
- Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
- Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
This problem occurred 3 days ago after I downloaded the latest version firefox 4.0 Why do I have to reinstall it again to fix the problem?
I had the same problem running FF 7.0 on OSX 10.6.8
Find Firefox 4.0 here: http://mac.oldapps.com/firefox.php?old_firefox=100
I couldn't find the 4.0 version at: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
