I have an iMac and Firefox version 3.6.28. Every time I open Firefox I get a "not using latest version" message but when I download it and try to put it in my apps it says "do you want to replace the newer version that is already installed with this older one?"

Hello Curly59,

"do you want to replace the newer version that is already installed with this older one?"

it is correct

1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean install.

3. Install the version that you have downloaded.

Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.
