[QUOTE="Gaby, post: 1030714, member: 145347"] Hi, I've been prompted to upgrade my current version of Firefox, which is 3.0.19. After downloading the latest version, Firefox 3.6.3, I tried dragging the Firefox image into my applications folder as prompted, then got the message: "An older item named "Firefox" already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the new one you are moving?", so I then clicked on "Replace", but then I got another window stating, "[B]The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items[/B]." Can someone please suggest how I can get around this: update my Firefox (and maintain my current bookmarks)? I would greatly appreciate help with this. Thanks. Cheers, Gaby [/QUOTE]
