How can I update to firefox 42? There's nothing on the about page to update. I would like to update and keep all my settings and stuff. How can I go about doing this? I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and currently using firefox 41. I'd like to avoid reinstalling but I guess I could if that would still save all my stuff. Thanks in advance for any help!

When a new version of Firefox comes out, there's a slight delay before it becomes available in the official repository. You can wait about a week for the update to get pushed out, or you can add the PPA for an unstable version.
Of course, you could always uninstall Firefox from the package manager and manually download from . If you download it this way, all updates will be available as soon as Mozilla launches them. However, it's probably best to just wait a few days for the Ubuntu archives to update.
Edit: Firefox 42 is now available in the official Ubuntu archives. :)
