| 1289117 | 2012-07-17 23:59:00 | Hi Team Firefox has been nagging me to update for some time now, but I've unusually busy with work so I've been avoiding it in for fear of striking problems. I am now seeing some possible incompatibilities surfacing, so maybe I need to bite the bullet and update to the latest version. If I update as advised, what is the likelihood of problems, and can I safely assume that all present configurations and personalised settings will be retained? The last thing I need right now is to spend hours trying to get things back to the way I like them. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 1289121 | 2012-07-18 00:26:00 | 14.01 seems to be a lot faster than 13.01. I just uninstalled 13 deleted all the folders. Then installed 14.01. No great hassle. Altho, I'm not too worried about how fancy it looks, with different configs / whatever. The only addon I install, is adblock | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 1289124 | 2012-07-18 00:42:00 | What version are you currently running? V14.0.1 was just released today/last night. V 3.6.28 I'm a creature of habit :D Seriously though, it has been working fine, so I've seen no pressing need to update. Sounds like I will not see my usual screen once I update, not that I actually use the FF home-page screen anyway, with my set-up it seems to just work in the background and my principal personalised configuration is adblock, but I can't remember what other tweaks I may have made over the last couple of years since I acquired my new computer.

| 1289125 | 2012-07-18 01:23:00 | Starting with version 4 they made some UI changes, but it's not difficult to get it back 99% to what it looked like in version 3 I would definitely recommend addons.mozilla.org |
