Firefox 4 does not work on my G5. After prompting me to update from previous version I am now left with nothing functioning. How do I go back?

After downloading the latest update Firefox kindly told me I should upgrade to V4. So I did. I downloaded it, dropped it into my applications folder and overwrote the old version. Only to be told when attempting to start the application "Firefox does not work with this architecture".
Brilliant. So I look for an older version on the site, and there is nothing to be found. Just the insistance that I should download version 4 for my Mac. Well, "IT DOESN"T WORK GUYS!"
Now can we have a fix please quickly or a link to the older version, as I am now left without all my bookmarks or passwords and you are about to effectively isolate a section of the computing community from ever using you again.

For your toolbars that you had installed before, are they simply incompatible with the latest version of Firefox?
Please try reading [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox|Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox]], as that may help with your addons.
As for Firefox running slow, is it slow lading web pages, or is just the whole browser slow? Try reading [[Firefox is slow|Firefox is slow]] , which may have some tips (the optimize Windows part especially).

  • Firefox 4 does not work with Pogo games at all!!! Plus do not like the layout at all either. This version really sucks!

    Firefox 4 does not work on any Pogo games, neither did the latest version of 3.6.14 and since downloading the beta version of 4 I've had nothing but troubles and pages either not loading or taking forever to load. I do not like this version at all.

    After trying everything else under the sun, I finally figured out that the problem was with the Adblock Plus program. Some of my games were not loading at Pogo.com, like Boggle, even though I made sure to clear all the caches and made sure my pop-up blocker wasn't on, the games still wouldn't work. Then I read something about Adblock Plus could be blocking some applets causing some games not to load properly and that's exactly what the problem was. The Adblock Plus preferences are found under the Tools button.I could've just disabled the Adblock Plus, but that made me a little nervous, so I just unblocked the items that were for the specific game that wouldn't load. To do that, I went to that particular game page where the room choices are. Not sure if you have to have Adblock Plus opened or not, but I did in a seperate tab. Then I hit cntrl + shift + V and it opened up the items that were blocked on Adblock Plus. The items in red are the items that are blocked. I just clicked on those to unblock them and the game loaded like a charm. Hope this info helps.

  • Folio preview does not work!! since Mandatory Folio Builder Panel update!

    hi everyone
    my grafic team told me that the folio preview in indesign does not work anymore since the required folio builder panel update!
    working on mac and cs 5
    please help
    best regards michael

    I just spoke with a member of our team and they were able to reproduce this issue: invoking folio preview from the file menu brings up an empty panel instead of launching the desktop preview tool. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! There are two ways you can work around this and get the desktop preview application up with your content:
    1) Use the preview button in the Folio Builder panel (this will preview the entire folio)
    2) Use the preview button in the Overlay Creator panel (this will preview the active InDesign document)
    This problem only affects CS5 and CS5.5. If you are on CS6 the menu will work correctly.

  • ITunes does not work om iPhone 5 after upgrade to iOs7. App store is available without problems. do somone have a tip?

    Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
    That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
    Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps).  Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior.  The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere.  Specific syncs are not relevant.

  • Firefox 5 does not work, it cannot connect to the net

    I have tried two times to install Firefox 5, but it does not work, it cannot find the net at all. It tells (in Finnish) "Muodostetaan yhteyttä" ("Creating the connection" or something like that in English) and it stops to that point of installation when there should come your Mozilla page up. I am using Win 7 Ultimate and F-Secure Client Security. Luckily it is possilble to install back the version 4.0.1. At my laptop with Win XP there is no problem with version 5.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • RichEditableText: Control+z for undo works in firefox but does not work in internet explorer (ie)

    Hi,
    I was doing some testing with RichEditableText and realized that the undo and redo when called by keyboard (Control + Z) in Internet Explorer does not work.
    Thanks,

    Hi, Gordon Smith, thanks for answer.
    I tried to pass a javascript event to the flash but still the IE does not fire, but by the way there is no way around this situation.
    With javascript I tried
    document.attachEvent("onkeydown") but doesnt work, this not fires with flash over.

  • Why is my computer now slower, with Firefox 4, then it was with previous version? It stops and crashes constantly. How can I go back to the previous version?

    When I am on Facebook or playing a game, it will freeze and I have to hit control alt delete, to get any response. Within a couple more seconds the same problem occurs. I did not have this problem with the previous version.

    I tried so hard with FF4 but no deal. It was considerably MUCH slower than 3.6. Every page just had a 2~3 second wait before it loaded up. This was tested on a brand new Windows 7 64-bit install machine too.
    Flash ran much more cpu intensive as well. I played many flash based games in 3.6 and my cpu usage was never always as it was with FF4 in the 90%-100% range.
    I had to get rid of it due to the slowness and the lack of older plugin support: ANYCOLOR which I must run and cannot stand the light colored menu pop ups. Also the buttons in FF4 are worse than 3.6. You can't see them when you have a persona applied.
    Staying with 3.6 until 4 speeds up or will give 4.1 a try.

  • Firefox mobile does not work in Samsung Fascinate, only get a blank screen for any search.

    I downloaded Firefox Mobile to my Samsung Fascinate. I had no problem with the download or installation. When I tried to do a search, all I got was a blank screen in the Firefox window. The Samsung Fascinate is set up to run only Bing. It does not like doing Google searches. When I try to force it to do a Google search through the existing Bing browser, I get the search result, but when I go to a site, none of the buttons work. In Firefox Mobile, I just get a blank white box in the Firefox window.

    You can continue using nightly builds without uninstalling. Fennec will offer to download a new nightly build whenever one is available.
    If you want to switch to a release version of Firefox, then you will need to uninstall the nightly build first. This will reset your history/bookmarks/settings.
    We are planning to release Firefox 4 beta 2 for Android later this week, so if you prefer to run an official release then you might to wait a few days and install that one.
