Cannot download Firefox 7 to iMac with OSX 10.6.8

I deleted Firefox in an attempt to solve a problem with a site I recently lost access to (channel 4od) and tried to download again. It downloads but then instead of going to the install routine the download window goes blank.

Have you installed the software? What happens when you try open Photoshop Elements? Do you receive an error message?

I cannot download Firefox on my iMac MacOs X.5.8

I had Firefox 3.6 on my iMac but i got a message there is Firefox 4 so i downloaded 4 and changed it but it do not work, so i am looking for firefox 3.6 but i cannot find it.

* 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.
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

Firefox repeatedly has no bookmarks, no history and will not let me add bookmarks. I have fixed this several times (deleting some sqlite file), but the problem recurs. It's enough to make me give up on firefox. Using iMac with OSX.

This problem happens upon upgrades, but may have happened between upgrades as well (happened so much I've generally given up on using bookmarks or history with firefox).
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Are you sure you are using OS X Mavericks? OS X Mavericks is 10.9, so it looks like you are using an older OS X version. To check this, open  > About this Mac, and check Version.
To get Aperture from the Mac App Store, upgrade to OS X Mavericks. Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks. Make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
After upgrading, you will be able to purchase Aperture

How to get Gopro studio on older iMac with OSX 10.6.8?

I have an 06' iMac with OSX 10.6.8 that can no longer update to newer versions. I recently got a Gopro 4 Silver only to learn that I cannot download the Gopro Studio editing software to my outdated OSX. The software requires a minimum of 10.8. Can anything be done to put the software on my iMac? If not, will any of the Apple software edit my Gopro media files?

Would appear from detailed viewing of iMac models circa 2006, none of them could be used
to run an OS X version as new as Mountain Lion 10.8.5. Most can't run Lion 10.7.5. So the
answer would be to find a newer model computer that can run Mountain Lion, or newer...
Depending on what kind of files the GoPro generates, the ability to edit, alter, and use them
will vary. Certain editing software exists, but the details of what is still available for older OS X
and your configuration, is sketchy at best. That is one of the reasons why the maker suggests
their GoPro device and/or software needs a later OS X system. Major upgrade. (OS + Mac)
The information on various Mac products can be read online at sites such as Everymac.com
where they show all models of a product name, and info about almost every mac built. To
use resources to see what kind of later computer may be affordable, available, and run the
software you already have, may take time. To keep a useful older computer at the best-last
state in OS X, with its software, is helpful if you have other applications that work for you.
Then you'd just need to find a niche product, such as a MacBook Pro from 2010; perhaps
a Late 2012 model 13-inch. Maybe even an earlier MacBook; these are no longer made.
Some reputable sellers offer restored or repaired older vintage Macs. For newer ones
that can run later Mac OS software, the Apple Store has their refurbished pages. These
are fairly current. Older ones no longer under any AppleCare plan, can be found at
shops that repair them for a living; or used. Be careful when buying used products, read
to see if there were issues, damages, and be sure to get the accessories & system discs
if the model is old enough to have DVDs included. Oh, be sure if you get a used Mac that
is newer, did not ship with install DVDs, the original owner has not tied it to their AppleID.
A promised upgrade in a used Mac, to Yosemite, does you no good if the computer is
tied to a former owner, and their password and their Apple ID accounts.
In any event... to use that peripheral will require a newer computer & later OS X version.
Good luck & happy computing!

How to download versions of apps compatible with OSX 10.7 not the ones updated for 10.9

how to download versions of apps compatible with OSX 10.7 not the ones updated for 10.9?
I'm trying to download iLife and iWork apps for my MacBook. For example: The GarageBand app will not download because it says it is compatible with 10.9. I have 10.7 and cannot update to 10.9 because I'm on a 13in. Late 2007 MacBook. Any suggestions?

Click here and follow the instructions. If they’re not applicable, you can’t download them and need to install them from a DVD.

Wacom Intuos Tablet and Pen not working on new iMac with OSX 10.9.4

Hi there, I've been using an A3 Wacom Intuos tablet and pen for many years now on a 2006 iMac for my illustration work, but I cannot get them to appear or work on my new iMac with OSX 10.9.4. I think they are the original Wacom Intuos tablet and pen. Does anyone know if they are just out of date now and aren't supported on the new OSX 10.9.4? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I need to work and it's frustrating!
Many thanks,
Steve

I have done as you suggested; I uninstalled PSE 11 and set my wife's account up as admin and reinstalled from there. Still have the same problem with my wife's account, but when I went to mine it is working correctly. Any ideas on why that would be? I'm sure it should work on both accounts. I have 2 accounts on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and it works on both.
Thanks for your help; at least it's working on my account so that's a great improvement.

Internet Explorer cannot download Firefox/Support/2.6.8.exe

IE8 cannot download Firefox file. It does not give me the Run/Download option, it just attempts to open it initially and stops before it gets to this screen. (It also does the same thing for MSN Explorer when I tried that instead and won't save any of my IE settings, Windows problem not Firefox)
I think that I need to change a setting on the computer or on Internet Explorer in order to download anything. It's not a case of where to download from.

I see you have just updated your original question, it is better to reply to an answer rather than update the original question, it makes it easier to see the updates.
Since the problem is with IE, you would be better off asking in a forum that specializes in Microsoft products. You can try asking in the Internet Explorer forum at [http://eileenslounge.com/ Eileen's Lounge].

Old imac with osx 10.5.8 How do I upgrade to a more recent os?

Please someone help.
Thanks

I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have bought a copy of Apple iLife 11 on dvd a so that I can install iWeb and idvd, when I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate

I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have just bought Apple iLife 11 on dvd so that I can install iWeb and iDVD, as macs no longer ship with these apps. When I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate.
Next problem is that when moving through the installer and get to custom install, as I only want to install iDVD and iWeb, I am presented with the option to install iDVD, Sounds & Jingles and iWeb, but not sure what is going on with the other 3 options iLife Support etc, they seem to be greyed out but still look like they may install over the top of the newer versions already on my imac. Is it ok for me to just go ahead and hit install? Or do I have a problem?

Yep, just install iDVD (plus sounds and jingles) and iWeb if you want it (but note that iWeb apparently won't work if you upgrade to Mountain Lion).
Then use Software Update to get any late iDVD updates.

I have trouble getting my new Apple TV 2 to work to the internet. I have an Imac with OsX 10.6.8 using a 3G modem to connect to the internet. I have a Time Capsule with Airport. I can't get the Apple TV to see my internet connection

I have an Imac with OSX 10.6.8 dual intel core.
Apple TV 2
Timecapsule
3G modem connected to iMac for internet access.
I have tied to get Apple TV2 to see the inernet but it does not seem to see the inernet connection either via the Airport network or even if I connect it directly with a ethernet cable to the Timecapsule or the iMac.
I have tired to set up Home Sharing but it doen't see the Itunes Store so no go.
I don't have wired internet but it is probably something to do with using a 3G modem
Any tips on how I can check if the TV coonect to internet and what to do about this problem?
I was trying to connect my HD TV earlier using a WiFi USB modem but it could not see my iMac. Apple Support told me to buy an Apple TV but that is not helping as I can't see anything there either.
Regards from Michael

Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date. I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable. It apparently hasn't worked either
Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac. I am so completely clueless
The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
Thanks again
