Am I running 64 bit or 32 bit firefox?

I went to help and about, but can't see this information.

You will already have the answer from following ''iNerd'''s solution'
Note that on Windows you will normally be using 32bit versions of Firefox.
The 64bit versions for Windows are experimental and unsupported. You would be unlikely to accidentally use 64bit Firefox on Windows.
I have marked iNerd's answer as the thread solution.

Hello,
There are no files like that in that folder (com.apple.safari). They all have long numbers with .jpeg or .png at the end. That's what I meant by I cannot find any files like those mentioned in all the helps I read today. BTW-it's still crashing - no particular pattern to it at all.
The only two things I have downloaded recently is a new version of Flash and a Mac-driven update to Office.
Thank you very much for your attempt to help us.

Running 32-bit and 64-bit firefox in parallel

Since not all plugins are supported in 64-bit Firefox (using Minefield 4.0b13pre) it would be handy if we could run both browsers at the same time. Currently, when running 64-bit Minefield, starting 32-bit Firefox starts a new Minefield window.
If it would start Firefox, I could run my flash sites in Firefox while doing my main surfing in Minefield. Currently I have no option but to run the flash in IE

Make sure you have different profiles for each version of Firefox/Minefield. Create a shortcut to launch the correct profile for each version and add the -no-remote command line switch, I would only use this command line argument for the secondary version, and start the main version first without this command line argument.
Some links that give more details:

I need to know whether I am running 32 or 64 bit Firefox, how?

I am looking at programs that support 32 bit, not 64 in Firefox but cannot find what I am using.

The earliest Release there may be a Win64 Firefox from Mozilla.org is Firefox '''37.0''' in first phase. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/win64
It appears based on your useragent that you have 32-bit Windows XP.
32-bit Firefox on 64-bit Windows have WOW64 in the useragent to show it is a 32-bit application on 64-bit Windows.

How do I tell if I have Firefox 32 bit or 64 bit?

I am trying to update my java add on, but I can not find ANYWHERE which version, 32 bit or 64 bit, of Firefox to know which one to install.

You appear to be running 32bit. Mozilla Firefox isn't currently offered in 64bit on Windows, aside from the Nightly testing releases.
Your User Agent (check it from Help -> Troubleshooting Information) does indicate which version you're running, in a roundabout way - ''WOW64'' is what Windows calls running 32bit applications on 64bit Windows. If you were running 64bit Firefox, you would see ''x64'' instead.

Where can I download a 64-bit version of the Firefox 4 software?

I downloaded Firefox 4 setup by using the Firefox 3.6.x Update feature and saved it as a file. I was not offered any choice as to whether to install a 64-bit or a 32-bit executable. It also did not tell me whether the program that would be installed is 64-bit or 32-bit.
When I run the downloaded file, I select the custom configuration of the cook-book vanilla installation routine.
The default installation location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Firefox -- which is the Windows 7 directory for 32-bit executables.
So, it would appear that Firefox 4 is 32-bit software, at least the one that I downloaded. I cannot find a download location on the Mozilla.com web site which is identifed as for getting 64-bit software instead of 32-bit.
From which web site and page (URL please!) can I download a 64-bit version of Firefox 4?

There is no public release of Firefox 64 bit for Windows yet - only for Mac and Linux. I believe the trial versions haven't been stable.
I don't think we are missing much at this stage.

Should I download Firefox 5 using Windows 7 64 bit or wait until Firefox supports the 64 bit version?

why are u asking me to upgrade to Firefox 5 that does not support Windows 7 64 bit?

Download or continue with the 32 bit version of Firefox to run on your 64 bit Windows 7 system.
The 64 bit Firefox is just for testing Firefox, you would not be able to use the plug-ins you normally use as they are not available.

Firefox 32-bit w/ JRE 32-bit on 64-bit Windows OS (Vista, Windows 7)

What do people think about this?

It describes a solution for making the Firefox plugin work for Java 32-bit & Firefox 32-bit, running on a 64-bit Windows OS. -- I can confirm that this is an issue, and can confirm that this is the fix.
I suspect it's because of the new convention for 32-bit apps (C:\Program Files (x86)\...), and the JRE doesn't recognize that Firefox is there, because it assumes it should be in C:\Program Files\... ?
Should a bug report be submitted?

How do you get the 32bit client to communicate with the 64bit Oracle instance on the same windows box? After installing the 64 bit db and client (on a developer desktop), I installed the 32 bit client to a different oracle home. I could not get it to connect to the listener - what am I doing wrong? Should I reinstall it to the 64bit home - I'm afraid that'll kill everything though.
Also, I think I'm correct in this, but not sure: any 32bit app must use the 32bit client on the 64bit box. MS Access needs 32bit ODBC, which needs 32bit client, etc.
Thx,
Jeff

Hi. I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader, It worked yesterday. Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files. I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow. I have deleted and reinstalled the application. I have rebooted. I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program. Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message. It simply says Attempt to access invalid address. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Hi Don,
I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
BEFORE:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
AFTER:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.

Need to run macbook pro in 32 bit mode to run and external modem how do i change from 64 bit to 32 bit

I have a macbook pro which i presume runs in a 64 bit mode. living in a country without broadband i need to use a 32 bit modem, can i change the system to run this modem at 32 bit as it wont load at 64?

Reboot holding 3 and 2, see if your modem works.
Rebooting again sets it back to 64 bit.
If 32 bit works then your fine, for now, but eventually your going to have to go 64 bit.

I need to know how to run Flash Player in a Vista 32-bit browser running on a 64-bit O.S.

Help please ! I have been reading for days, trying everything to find the answer to my dilemma, which BTW is making it impossible to use our new computer now. Every other minute it seems I get the message that I need to run Flash Player in a VISTA 32-bit browser which is actually running on a 64-bit operating system. Do I have to uninstall a program (what and where is it) and then instal something else (from where etc.)?
Give me back our XP! I get the idea that Adobe keeps SAYING they are developing a platform for Adobe Flash to run on a 64-bit, but I fear that is only a stall. Who is responsible for helping neophytes? No matter how many times I have tried to contact Adobe, it is a joke. One time, even though I do not have a subscription for service, the poor man took pity on me. But his Indian accent was so severe I have ZERO idea what he was saying. Can one of you wonderful, erudite, helpful people out there give me the solution in computer language 101?? I will be forever grateful. I wish our computer "guru" had been smart enough to give us the pros and cons when he suggested Vista and 64..... When I am asked for a serial number even I have no earthly idea how to get that either. I feel completely HELPLESS and SLEEPLESS in Tucson. Thanks SOOOO much to whomever can get me going in the right direction. (Forgive my LONG message. I had to vent. I feel better.) CLOWG

Hi Clowg,
Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Unfortunately, I don't believe the folks here on this forum will be able to help you with your issue. Have you tried posting on the Flash Player forum?

64-bit Nightly v29 and Firefox v26 under Win7 64-bit are so slow for streaming, achieving only 4% of BW otherwise achieved by the sam firefox under Win7 32-bit.

Under my Window 7 64-bit OS, I've installed both Nightly Build v28 and v29 to perform "internet speed test" and each time, I can only achieve something < 2 mbps for my home Wi-Fi, gateway router which is about >56 Mbps. The only working Nightly version was v23 that could achieve close to >52 mbps. But once I update v23 to higher version, all the normal high speeds I could achieve at Nightly v23 are gone. The same issue plagued also firefox v26 under Win 7 64-bit.
For clarification, this is not true under Win 7 32-bit OS - the same firefox v26 works fine to achieve the raw BW speed close to and >56 mbps. WHy not in 64-bit OS seems to be the main question?
What's going on? I greatly appreciate you looking into and helping me out on this dilemma. Thanks!
Sincerely

hello Shao Ma, when you are using speedtest.net or a similar flash-based site to measure your connection speed then it might be an issue with the protected mode that [http://blogs.adobe.com/asset/2012/06/inside-flash-player-protected-mode-for-firefox.html adobe has introduced] for its flash plugin for firefox. some old versions of f-secure or trusteer rapport are known to cause such slowdowns together with flash, or it might be something similar on your system that is interfering (maybe security software that is blocking/sandboxing the container used for the protected mode, etc...).
as a workaround you could try [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071#TemporaryWorkaround disabling protected mode] & see if this makes a difference.
in case you'd like to troubleshoot the issue further, it would be best to contact adobe's support & file a bug report at bugbase.adobe.com (choose "Adobe Flash Player" as the product & "Browser Integration" as the product area), since they will have a better understanding of the internals of flash protected mode & therefore may know what else might be at the root of the problem you were seeing.

Am I running 64 bit or 32 bit firefox?
