I can no longer update plugins. Clicking "update" leads to a security bulletin with no updating option.

I used to be able to update plugins by going to add-ons, checking for what needed updating, and clicking on "update" for each one. Now clicking on "update" leads to a security bulletin page that does not give an option for updating. Is there some setting that needs changing to get back to being able to update?

Every plugin has its own page. However, now I think firefox eventually is automatically updating the plugins. Yet this is not indicated -- it still tells us to do it ourselves, but then the button doesn't work. So I think my problem is solved, but I hope Mozilla gets the feedback and either lets the button function, or takes it away. Thanks for your hlep!

Plugins like Flash, Java and such are not actually installed in Firefox like Extensions and Themes (complete) are though.
