After downloading the new version of Firefox my mac reports that the downloaded copy is damaged. Who knows what to do about it?

I tried to install Firefox 3.6.15 several times on my iMac. It then first downloads a file with a .dmg extension. When I try to open this file I get the message that the downloaded copy of this file is damaged. I retried several times, but that didn't help.

Try using http://ninite.com/java/ninite.exe to install Java. Please note that even though you download it you have to double click it to get it to run and install.

    After installing a new version of Firefox, I get the error message "The procedure entry point JS_GetOperationLimit could not be located in the dynamic link library js3250.dll" when I try to start firefox. Elsewhere in the forum a complete reinstall is suggested; however, I can't do that because of my company's IT policies. Is there any way to solve this problem WITHOUT a complete reinstall? Thank you!

    If you can't reinstall Firefox yourself then you need to contact your IT department and ask them to check the Firefox installation.
    It is possible that some files got broken with the latest update.

  • Downloaded new version of Firefox for mac, it won't let me install, says I don't have sufficient privaledges - I have all the privaleges!

    I am trying to install the new version of Firefox.

    I am the admin user on this machine.
    Any ideas?

    * Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded.

  • After updating to new version of Firefox, my paid for RoboForm will not work. What should I do? I MUST have it working. Thanks Jane

    Yesterday I downloaded the new version of Firefox as suggested by you. Then my paid for version of RoboForm , which always has worked, would not work. I MUST have it working. What can I do now to solve this crucial problem? PLEASE send detailed info so I can follow exactly. Thanks, Jane P.

    You need version 7 of RoboForm for Firefox 4. Version 6 will only work with Firefox 3.6.* or earlier.
    If you have version 6 this may be viewed as a method to generate income by Roboform in forcing users to update to version 7 and not offering updates to version 6 to make it compatible.
    An alternative free password manager that works with Firefox 4 is Lastpass - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/lastpass-password-manager
    If you have version 6 of Roboform and need to use it you will have to downgrade to Firefox 3.6
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • Installing new version of firefox to mac os x 10.2.8

  • I am unable to download a newer version of Firefox because it says that I have one that is open. I can't figure out where the open one is???

    I have the firefox icon on the tool bar at the bottom. When I click on it, another one appears so now there are 2. I wanted to update my firefox but, when I try to run the install I get a box that says that I need to close firefox in order to install and it is not open. I need to get this corrected. What do I do?

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 19.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

    How do I download a version that will work?

    Just repeating what it says above: "Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5".
    I have OS X 10. 5 but I am sticking with Firefox 3.6.24. The last time I upgraded to Firefox 4, I had to wait 5 minutes for every mouse click to execute.

  • Can I delete older version after installing a newer version of Firefox?

    I have other software that when I install a newer version, it runs off the older one but adds to it...meaning I can't uninstall the older one or the new one won't work. Can I uninstall the older versions of Firefox when I install a newer one? I don't like having all this stuff on my computer!!!

    Yes, if you have used you computer and feel you have all of the settings and preferences file you need then delete it.

  • AFTER UPGRADING TO LATEST VERSION OF FIREFOX( FOR MAC) ALL WEB SITES ARE VERY SLOW TO LOAD. I HAVE NO PROBLE WITH SAFARI. WHAT DO I DO?

    confirmed e-mail [email protected]

    Yours is the first complaint about Firefox on 10.8 I've seen, so I'm inclined to think it's a issue with your machine, or a bad download/update or something.
    Run through this list of fixes and see what works.

  • I get yellow and red bars on the pictures that I am copying. Do you know what is happening

    I get yellow and red bars across the faces of the people. I am copying from a copyied photograph.  Can you help me understand what is going on with the printer

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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).

  • I'm getting the following message and need to know what to do about it: "The backup disk image "/Volumes/Joyce's Time Capsule/Macintosh.sparsebundle" is already in use."

    What do I do to get backups to resume, when getting this message: "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Joyce's Time Capsule/Macintosh.sparsebundle” is already in use." ?

    Make sure that no other Macs are backing up at the time
    Pull the power cord from the back of the Time Capsule

    Plug the power cord back into the back of the Time Capsule
    Wait a few minutes, then try a backup again

  • The new version of firefox is ridiculously slow, how do I go back to the old version?

    As requested I recently updated to the newer version of firefox, since I did that it has been really slow. I would like to go back to the older version, how do I do that?

    Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.<br><br>
    Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).<br><br>
    Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br><br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
    After you complete the installation, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update those where necessary.

  • When I try to move the new firefox icon into my OSX applications folder I get a message telling me I don't have permission. How can I get the new version of Firefox into my applications folder?

    I downloaded the new version of firefox for Mac OSX.
    I dragged the firefox icon over my applications folder.
    A message window asked if I wanted to replace an older version of the application. I clicked "yes".
    Another message window popped up and said I did not have permission.
    What now?

    If you have 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 DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • I am getting an error that says there is a proxy connection that is unsupported. I have no proxy connection. It happened after I downloaded the new version of firefox.

    I downloaded the new version of Firefox. When it was finished installing, I pulled up a new browser. It said something along the lines of "proxy connection error" with nothing other than "try again". I restored the computer to the previous day to counteract the download, and now firefox will not open at all.
    It is a HP G600, Vista.

    Check the connection settings.

    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy" if the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't work.
