Can I install Firefox on my Mac OS X desktop also if my browser is Safari (two browsers on one computer)?

I want to use Firefox for a particular link which only accepts Firefox. I use Safari since my computer man said Firefox had stopped making a version which could update my newly-installed iMac OS X 10.8.3. Stupid question: can I have both Firefox and Safari installed on my computer without tremendous problems?

Yes, you can have two browsers or more installed in your computer.

    Can't install Firefox 4 on Mac OS 10.4.11. After I download it, the Firefox icon has circle with a crossline in it when I try to install.

    Sorry, the official version of Firefox 4 requires Mac OS 10.5 or later, and an Intel processor.
    You can download an unofficial version that works with 10.4 and PowerPC Macs from http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    or you can download the previous version from http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html

  • I've installed Firefox onto my Mac (recently purchased) and I can't get the disc to eject. Help?

    I've just installed Firefox onto my Mac and I'm finding that I can't eject the disk from my desktop. I've moved Firefox into the Applications and tried going to "File" and ejecting from there, but I get the message that "Firefox couldn't eject because Firefox was using it."
    I have also tried shutting down everything, replacing Firefox in the applications and clicking on the icon with a white circle and cross, but I get the message "A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."
    I'm basically stuck. Any help would be appreciated, please.

    '''Is there a way to download FF to a USB from another computer and install it from that USB on my PC? '''
    You basically answered your own question. If you have access to another computer just go download the appropriate language and OS version of Firefox 5.0 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html and put it on you usb drive and then go and install it onto you pc.

  • I have nokia 5130 xpress music.Why I can't install firefox in my phone.

    I have nokia 5130 xpress music.Why I can't install firefox in my phone.

    Hi 08ik,
    Unfortunately, the Nokia 5130 is a feature phone (a.k.a, a "dumb" phone). Firefox will currently only run on smart phone devices that operated by Android.
    Firefox is compatible with Android 2.1 and above devices with hardware requirements recommending at least 512 MB of RAM.
    You can see a list of all supported devices here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/platforms/

  • Can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4

    I can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4 (Safari). The adobe help tells me I've installed version 11.8.800.94 - but the player is nowhere to be found...

    Download the offline installer here: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
    If it won't download directly, right click and "Save as"
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
    Trash the Flash Player.plugin file from there
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Trash the Flash Player folder (the whole folder)
    Empty the trash
    Reboot
    Mount the DMG and run the installer.
    BEFORE opening any Flash content in Safari, open Safari>Preferences, and check the Security tab to make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.

  • I can't install flash player on MAC

    I can't install flash player on MAC
    give me error after program download on MAC as me to put my user ID and password
    I try to put but always give me error

    @douglasbell2
    The dialog window requesting the password is an OS dialog window, it is not a Flash Player window.  I understand the confusion, but we can't modify a system dialog window with additional information.
    @jongenelen
    If you're system does not have a password, you should be able to continue the installation with out it.  Ignore the password field and click the OK button.  If your system does have a password and you don't recall what it is, I recommend Googling something like "reset lost os x password".  This search returns many results, and some vary depending on the OS version.

  • Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

    Hello
    I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer!  All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
    I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
    Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • HT4759 how can i install icloud to my mac which is running on Mac OS X version 10.6.8?

    how can i install icloud to my mac which is running on Mac OS X version 10.6.8 ?

    You must first upgrade to 10.7.5 or later.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
