Firefox six supports so few plugins and extensions that I needed to get rid of it. Can I get version 5 back.

I am not only disappointed with Firefox 6, but upset that the only other version on your site is 3.6.20 which you say you will not support much longer. I was happy with Firefox 5, then made the mistake of letting your installer change me over to Firefox 6.
Sure, you don't make the extensions etc. But you have broken so many of them that it would be a great ordeal to go to a dozen different places seeking new versions, which probably don't exist. I want Firefox 5 back. How come your website doesn't let me have it?

Perhaps you didn't understand. The number of add-on problems was so severe that I could not live with it.
You did not answer my question about getting an earlier version.
And, I was still waiting for an important add-on to version 5, McAfee site advisor, which I really need.
Asking me to manually check for so many new add-ons is unreasonable, and I just cannot wait for Firefox to find them. So I am back with 3.6.20 and grumpy about it.

  • Why does Firefox get hung up, when opening new pages? I've tried disabling plugins and extensions to no avail.

    Initially, when I open Firefox everything opens very quickly. However, after several minutes it gets hung up when opening new pages. I have close the browser and reopen it to start over. But each time it does the same thing. Works well at first then poops out. The trouble started yesterday. Before then, I never had any problems.
    I've tried disabling all the plugins and extensions, but it doesn't make any difference.

  • Firefox 8 and 9beta. Back and Forward buttons greyed out. Right click menu also has forward and back greyed out. Updated all plugins, then disabled all plugins and extensions and started in safe mode. No change.

    My forward and back buttons are greyed out after update to Firefox 8. Tried to move to 9 beta, but same behavior. Back and Forward also greyed out in right click menu.
    Attempted to fix by updating all plugins and extensions, then disabled all plugins and extensions, and then tried to start in safe mode. Nothing worked.

  • Why does firefox drop support for a plugin with an update

    Why the H*ll does Firefox drop support for a plugin when there is an update in Firefox.
    FF4 has reported that 6 of my plugins that work fine in 3.6 are now not supported. !! This is a joke, and happens regularly.
    As a user (a highly IT literate one) this is annoying and frustrating, and from a design standpoint, unprofessional.

    Plugins as in Flash, Java, quicktime or such or do you mean Extensions ?
    Plenty of Plugins seems to be detected and in use by Firefox 4.0 just fine according to your system details by your post.
    If you meant Extensions then check for updates, look at addons.mozilla.org or the Extension homepage for to see if the author has provided a update.
    Generally Extensions can need anywhere from a simple maxversion bump to a lot more for it to work properly on a new Major version of Firefox depending on what the Extension does.
    It is professional actually as extensions that were not actually compatible may actually cause problems big or small if they were to still just ''work'' in a new Major version release so hence the need for them to be properly up to date on any changes and hopefully the extension author is quick about it.

    Hi Diovizor,
    Make sure that you do not use [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History Clear Recent History] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.
    Also please make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: Use custome settings for history. Uncheck "Always use permanent Private Browsing mode"
    Hope that helps!

  • When I try to launch itunes I get an error mesage saying that Apple application support was not found and suggests that I uninstall and re-install it, but that doesn't work

    When I try to launch itunes I get an error mesage saying that Apple application support was not found and suggests that I uninstall and re-install it, but that doesn't work

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    Start with the section Install missing components which should address your particular error. Otherwise the steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • HT5409 I asked if AVCHD files can be played on Mac and the support site says to simply click on the icon and quick time will play it. A big lie. Just say it won't support the file type and tell us what apps to get.

    I asked if AVCHD files can be played on Mac and the support site says to simply click on the icon and quick time will play it. A big lie. Just say it won't support the file type and tell us what apps to get. anybody?

    I also had issues opening AVCHD files on case-sensitive filesystems.
    You can try these steps to solve the issue:
    Right click on the AVCHD file and select 'Show Package Contents'
    Right click on the BDMV file and select 'Show Package Contents'
    Rename index.bdm to INDEX.BDM (it seems that all files in the BDMV folder should be in UPPERCASE for Quicktime to open the AVCHD file).
    Go back twice and try again to double-click on the AVCHD file (Quicktime should open a window showing the multiple clips, as expected).

  • Cannot open CS6, it craves JBX-plugin, and my Mac doesn't recognize the file so I can't download

    I wonder why CS6 is not complete when downloaded? Why should I have to download JBX? If needed it should be a part of Indesign. My Mac doesn't have a name of a file to open and download, so now I simply don't have CS6 and can't convert my book to Kindle for sales on Amazon.
    Terribly disappointed!

    I am using OS X 10.9.2 and I'm attaching the error message I get. I am
    trying to install InDesign CS6 in order to convert my book to Kindle, but
    Amazon's plug-in only works with InDesign CS6 NOT with InDesign CC.
    I am attaching the Kindle Plugin also.

  • I want to buy an hp m1536 laserjet for my ipad printing, I believe the printer is not wireless but has sprint. Is the print job going through my wireless router and does that router need to support AirPrint.

    I want to buy an hp m1536 laserjet for my ipad printing, I believe the printer is not wireless but has sprint. Is the print job going through my wireless router and does that router need to support AirPrint.

    The following model is airprint compatible, is this the one you have?
    HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf MFP
    If not the "dnf MFP" model, then no.
    The router needs to support the Bonjour protocol.  If not, the airprint won't work.

    I am using several Macs running Yosemite. I was recently “upgraded” to Xfinity’s new cable modem which can support both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz networks at the same time. Actually I can connect to the internet over both with a satisfactory bump in speed for the Ghz. However when I connect to the 5Ghz the Time capsule disappears from the Airport Utility and claims to be Not Found. Is there something I have done wrong or just a Yosemite Teething Problem

    First restart your mac and try again.
    It could be
    that the router and the TC are interfering wirelessly with each other.
    You can check this by pressing the option key while clicking on the wireless icon on your screen
    Open Wireless Diagnostics
    enter your user password
    Press CMD 4 then Scan
    You will see all the wireless channels being used in your location and you can check if they are on the same channel
    Make the SSID for the TC simple like MyTC
    Set 5Ghz to auto
    Update the TC
    Try again
