NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
SAVE the installer to your hard drive (Desktop is a good place so you can find it). When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit), locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.
IMPORTANT: I have found it wise to always restart your system after doing anything with Adobe products.

  • I need to set a proxy to visite internet, when i invoke the firefox 3.6 from my Java code, my setting would be disappeared. So i wonder whether the fire fox has the start up parameter to control this, thanks!

    1: I need to set aproxy in firefox 3.6, which allow me to access the internet.
    2: Currently i am using some Java code to invoke the firefox, the path is D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe. When the firefox launched by Java code, I found the proxy is missing.
    3: looks like the Java code make the firefox go back to the orininal status, just like the fresh installation.
    I wonder whether there are some parameters or files that can be used to control the firfox starting.

    Thanks for your reply, here is what i tested:
    1: Upgrade my Firefox version to 3.6.8
    2: The installation path is D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
    3: For the ProfileManager, I tried to run the firefox.exe -ProfileManager in command line, the firefox was started up but not the profileManager. No sure why this happened. :-(
    4: I updated some features after the installation, like add some bookmarks, delete some default bookmarks and added the proxy. When the firefox is started from my code, the profile would be the default one(No new bookmarks, no proxy).
    5: Start the firefox from the command line and by double click is ok, my adding bookmarks and proxy is here...
    Thanks!

    You have a general.useragent.override pref that makes your Firefox version appear a Firefox/3.6.13 in the user agent.

  • Fire fox will not quit. Mac X version 5.6.8

    Installed Version 5 2 weeks ago. Now it will not quit unless I shut the computer down.

    You'll be more likely to get applicable and useful help if you ask in the iTunes for Mac forum rather than here in the iTunes for Windows forum.

  • My computer has been running "dial up" slow since the last update of Fire Fox. Is there any connection?

    My computer was just updated to a higher speed connection and was doing good speed wise even before. Now it takes forever to load or navigate in all capacities, that is until I got to this site and I can click as fast as I can here and there is no slow down. Will go back to my home page and see how bad it is there. My wife has a Mac laptop and she even said that since the new update, Fire Fox has been running a little weird concerning the opening of a new window unexpectedly. Really want to see if there is anyone else that might be having similar issues with their computers after the new update.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

  • Why does my fire fox not work correctly?

    I was notified on April 30, 2010 that I need to up-date my flash player and my fire fox has not correctly since. It either hangs up in the loading process and crashes altogether. It can take as long as 5 hours to partly load a website. It took 47 min. for Mozilla support to load tonight. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox twice and 2 seperate comp tech have tried to locate & fix the problem to no avail. Both tech could get fire fox to run for about an hour correctly unless I tried to go to a new website or a new page on the site I was on

    Hello Dorothy.
    This kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
    #run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
    #update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
    #enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
    #you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
    Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
    #do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
    #disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix your issues with Firefox, proceed;
    #check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable them to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't work, proceed to the following point;
    #clean up your OS registry, using appropriate software. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

  • I was typing a post on my blog and Fire Fox crashed. I lost my data. How can I get it back?

    Fire Fox has been crashing the last few days. Tonight, I was typing an article post for my blog and it crashed again. I was just finishing the article (900 words). The open sites usually come back up and they all did except the blog post site. I lost all my article post. I worked 3.75 hours on this. How can I get it back?

    Did you try:
    History menu > Restore Previous Session
    I'm not sure that's still available if you've been browsing around again for a while.
    ''Actually, you used session restore, so that's the same thing.''
    I'm not sure what blog platform you use, but I've noticed that WordPress auto-saves for me at regular intervals. If yours doesn't do that, you should definitely see about getting it set up.

  • After updating to Fire Fox 7.0, Adobe Reader X, Java Console, Skype and Verizon Tool Bar were disabled and noted as not compatible with this updated version. What can be done to rectify this? Needed for school work.

  • My web search tool bar taking over FIRE FOX

    I HAVE HAD TO UNINSTALL "FIRE FOX", BECAUSE OF A TOOL BAR CALLED "MY WEB SEARCH". WHEN I UNISTALLED FIRE FOX, I WAS ABLE TO RE-INSTALL IT USING "GOOGLE" AS MY TOOL BAR. BUT WITHIN A FEW DAYS, THE "MY WEB SEARCH" TOOL BAR CAME BACK, AND AGAIN I COULD NOT GET IT TO STOP TAKING OVER FIRE FOX, EVEN WITH MY INTERNET OPTIONS. WHEN I CONTACTED "FIRE FOX'S" SUPPORT ON {1/17/2012}, THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME! TO REMOVE WHAT THEY SAY IS A VIRUS! I THINK THIS IS STUPID, AND I HAVE UNINSTALLED " FIRE FOX ", AND I WILL NOT USE IT AGAIN, BECAUSE OF THE VIRUS....

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • Do I need to stay online while Fire Fox is updating?

    A Fire Fox update box appeared stating: "Fire Fox has new updates for your computer". Each time I clicked OK for the updates, I found that the process would take several hours and once done there was no notification of completion. Thus, my question: Do I need to stay online while Fire Fox is updating?

    What you can do instead of the partition is create a new user for your son on (YOUR partition).
    Transfer all purchases from the device to iTunes Back up the iPad , restore the device , synchronize the device.
    Erase your son's partition after you are sure everything works .

  • Uzbl-browser with new cookie-manager

    hey guys, how can i clean all cookies when i close uzbl?
    in the past versions i using this script
    cleancookies [-w FILE | -b FILE] [-c COOKIES]
    -w FILE - read whitelisted domains from FILE
    -b FILE - read blacklisted domains from FILE
    -c COOKIES - read cookies from COOKIES file instead of stdin
    -h - print this help
    -V - print version
    If -w or -b option is specified, cleancookies treats each line of FILE as regular expression that cookie domain is matched against.
    COOKIES file (or stabndard input) should be cookies.txt file as used by mozilla and uzbl-cookie-daemon.
    EXAMPLE: add following script to your .xsessionrc, or register it in crontab:
    tmp=$(mktemp)
    wl=${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/uzbl/whitelist
    ck=${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/uzbl/cookies.txt
    cleancookies -w $wl -c $ck > $tmp
    mv $tmp $ck
    killall uzbl-cookie-daemon && uzbl-cookie-daemon -v start
    (posted :: http://www.uzbl.org/wiki/cleancookies)
    but now uzbl doesnt use cookies.txt he just have a exec  called "uzbl-cookie-manager". files in this folder (/usr/share/uzbl/...) there are examples of this exec on .c source ;D but i dont know how this works (many, many methods x_x')
    does anyone have a uzbl-cookie-manager.c modified to expire cookies on the close?
    /* uzbl-cookie-manager.c (default version) - https://gist.github.com/849108 */

    Hi there,
    I don't think you can change to view percentages instead of times without hacking the UI (i.e. writing a simple add-on that changes this behavior). I believe the rationale is that time left is more useful than a percentage, since the latter doesn't say much without a sense of how fast things are downloading.
    Cheers,
    David

    Install the new version of GetMail. <br />
    http://webdesigns.ms11.net/getmail.html
    That extension isn't hosted an AMO, which makes it a lot harder (and more expensive) for the developer of that extension to provide automatic updates for that extension.
    ''"beer" fund donations probably wouldn't cover the costs for secure HTTPS web host costs, which would make automatic updates possible, IMO''
