Using Fireshot version 0.98.2 but this issue has been around for a few versions. In Firefox it will not capture at all after it notifies me there is an update available. Nothing happens when select various capturing options.
This is incredibly annoying and leaves me having to do a print screen into a Bitmap image to avoid from losing what screen data I needed to save before having time to install update and restart browser. XP Pro SP3 Firefox 3.6.27 (yes I know it's old but I like this version) |

Just switch off the automatic updates of the addons in the Firefox prefs. __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

RE: Just switch off the automatic updates of the addons in the Firefox prefs.
Under the Firefox Prefs ---> Advanced Tab ---> Updates nothing is checked as far as "automatically check for updates" is concerned. |

I want to help you guys, but I do not understand the problem.
Any chance to get in touch with you via Skype or TeamViewer (better than Skype)? __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

Hi JK, I don't use either program but here is what happens. Sometimes over the past year or so I will go to do a screen capture using your wonderful Fireshot program and it will open a pop-up notification saying an update is available. After this pop-up Fireshot will no longer capture the screen via any of the options, even after a reboot, until I update to the new version.
Sometimes I need to capture screenshots of temporary/dynamic content so updating isn't an option right then and there... leaving me with only the "print screen option" Hope that helps for when the next update comes around. |
