Download Firefox latest version programaticaly

We need to download Firefox latest version programatically but don't want to hard code the file name of Firefox. Is there any way/RSS feed which will provide me always latest Firefox version file name.
Ex. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/36.0/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%2036.0.exe
Here we don't want to hard code Firefox%20Setup%2036.0.exe

The other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and now none of the icons for the different websites I normally go to are there?

As I said, the other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and after doing so none of the icons for the different websites that normally go to are no longer there. Websites such as MSNBC, MSN, Most visited, that entire strip is no longer visible. I tired resetting Firefox and still nothing. Can anyone tell me how to get them to appear again? It's a hassle every time that I want to go to one of those sites I have to type it in the search bar, instead of just clicking on it as I did before. Please keep in mind if you answer, that I'm still learning about these things called computers and not very well versed in some of the things that you experts know:) Thanks

On Windows XP Firefox shows the menu bar by default and not the orange Firefox menu button that is shown when the menu bar is hidden. 
The menu bar is the toolbar at the top that shows menu items like File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help. 
You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily in case this bar is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
The Navigation Toolbar shows the Back and forward button and the input field where you type the address of a site that you want to visit (aka location bar) and also has a search bar where you can type items that you want to look up with a search engine (Google).

How do I manuallly download the latest version of Firefox on top of my current version?

I have an iMac version 10.7.5. I'm currently running Firefox Version 14 and I keep getting prompts to allow automatic updating (currently to version 17). However, when the prompt says "connecting to the update server," it never connects. So my questions are:
a.) Is there a way to correct this problem so that I can automatically update?
b.) If not, how do I update manually (I've found the Mozilla site's explanations incomplete/confusing.) Can I just download the latest version and it'll configure to what I already have, or do I need to delete my current version and reinstall completely? And what will happen to my settings (e.g. bookmarks) if I update on top of my current version, or update by completely replacing the current version?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 17.0.1: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (e.g. open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive? 2) When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening?

I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive?
When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening? For example if I click on a link the exact same link comes up 3 or 4 times and I have to manually delete all of them but one.

Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

Firefox will no longer play videos and keeps telling me to download the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer which I have done 5 times but still get the same message when I try to play videos. I can play videos on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome .

Recently when I try to play a video on Firefox I get the same message that I need to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. At least 5 times I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player 11 Active X and Adobe Flash Player Plugin 64 bit. Problem is that even though I have the latest version I still get the same message when I try to watch videos on Firefox. The frustrating thing is I can watch videos on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome as well as on Safari. How does that make sense?
Today, I upgraded to Firefox 10.0.2 (x86eng-us) hoping that would enable me to watch video on Firefox but it made no difference either. I would rather use Firefox as my default browser but if I can't get help so I can view video on it I will be forced to use another browser.

Hi arpriltime,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-or-flash-plugin-crashes Flash plugin troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of useful information in there that should help you get to the bottom of your issue.
Hopefully this helps!

Why won't firefox crashes when I try to download the latest version of adobe flash player ?

When I tried to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (10.1.85.3), nothing happened. Then something popped up....

I was a little confused because it was totally different from what the instructions said

so I decided to click the "manual" button and a download page to download a file named "Gp" popped. Seeing that I just clicked cancel then suddenly my computer froze. I tried going to the adobe download page again and it happens all over again. Please Help Me :(

I accidentally downloaded the latested version of firefox to my outdated Mac 10.3.9 and lost the older version of firefox. I need to get the older version of firefox back?

firefox won't open on my computer as it says that it might be damaged. I downloaded the latest version of firefox and realized after the fact that the latest version is only compatible to mac 10.4 or higher. My computer is only 10.3.9 so it seems that it's too old. I tried downloading an older version from your website and it failed. Please help. I hope I don't have to go out and purchase a new computer!!

Ever since I downloaded the latest version of firefox..is running slower, I am not really liking the new format, is there anyway to go back to the old one?

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Server+not+found
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firewalls
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

When you downloaded the latest version of Firefox on July 2/11 I lost all my picture files

When you downloaded the latest version of Firefox on the 2nd of July all my pictures were wiped out even my desktop wallpaper which was one of my pictures. I have looked in all the places I could think of but haven't been able to find them. To try and find them I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but still none of my pictures have been found. They were in my Windows live photo gallery and some in Documents & Pictures.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

After downloading the latest version, I am told to re-boot the computer but no matter how often I re-boot, Firefox does not load.

I cannot download the latest version and the previous version has disappeared. I have tried over a period of weeks but I just get the same message. I must re-boot the computer to start a previous version of Firefox. Rebooting changes nothing. Please help.

Check and tell if its working.

Thanx!

The best maintained PowerPC browser at the moment is TenFourFox:

It is a Mac port of a newer version of FF thatn any PowerPC Mac can support natively. It runs, looks and feel like FF.
I found some add-ons that helped TFF with speed issues. Pleae see my post in another PPC forum:

Hi, Barbara! Is the problem that you have a lot of different versions of Firefox on your launch bar? Or that you have a lot of different versions in a directory somewhere?
Either way, on the mac, you should be able to simply:
1. Close all versions of Firefox
2. Drag the applications to the trash folder, which will remove them from the folder or your dock
3. Download Firefox with Safari at getfirefox.com
4. Open the downloaded file by double clicking it
5. Once that happens you will have a Firefox icon and a folder with an "A" on it
6. Drag the Firefox icon onto the A, which will install it into your Applications folder
7. Open your Applications folder and drag it onto your main dock
8. You should be able to launch it from your dock by clicking on the Firefox icon.
Thanks!

Firefox crashed after I download the latest version of adobe

Just once or twice

First I recommend updating to [http://getfirefox.com Firefox 3.6.6] as it is the most current update to fix your problem. If the problem still persists, please give me the crash report ID.
