How about a 64 bits firefox

all about why there is not a transparent and unequivocal explanation answer by Mozilla about a Firefox 64 bits browser by Mozilla it self?!!!

I agree with JaineyCakes. We install Firefox on all our clients' machines. We're not used to getting smart aleck answers from our vendors. (Or at least not the vendors we keep).
You asked for a reason why you should developing a 64 bit version for Windows. Well here are our reasons:
- We have multiple machines with 12 GB or more of RAM
- We and our clients have been running 64 bit Windows since 2009 (at least 5 years).
- Almost all our other applications that we depend on in our business are 64 bit (and have been for years).
- Increasingly, our clients are running more applications concurrently, including more and more tabbed sessions within Firefox. Also the complexity of the apps they run within the browser continue to grow in complexity.
- Our clients' tolerance for slow performance continues to go down every year.
Not sure if any of this matters to Mozilla. But we used to consider Mozilla to be a technology leader. Not sure if you still do.

How about adding Gmail to Firefox start page?

When you start http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a there is no Gmail; the only way for it to appear is if you are already logged-in. The "Books" shows up in the place of Gmail; see google.com. Please change it! I stopped using the Google Firefox start page because of it

Sorry, Mozilla doesn't have control over what Google does with that Google / Firefox page. You can probably use iGoogle to add what you want to the page, but you'd have to be logged into iGoogle to see those changes when you start Firefox.

Can I run 32 bit firefox on my Windows 7, 64 bit and how ? Flash player loads slow.

Can I run 32 bit Firefox on my Windows 7, 64 bit and how do I do that? Flash player loads videos slowly. You tube videos are mostly loading slowly or hanging up. It seems to have happened after the last Firefox update.

According to website I have Flash Player installed but I cannot run a program (BBC iPlayer DeskTop) that requires 64 Bit Flash player Any ideas?
Does that program require the Flash Player ActiveX Control, or the plugin? If you only have the ActiveX Control (for Internet Explorer) installed, then you may also need the plugin (for other browsers). Get it from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

How about telling us in advance what programs or plug ins will NOT work with the new Firefox. I just lost my "safe search" feature with AVG, and I think that's sort of important!

Just upgraded to Firefox 6 (which I like, by the way), but when I upgraded to 5, I lost the gaming feature when I installed AVG, and now I've lost the AVG safe search feature, which I think is very important considering that I have grandkids that use my computer,
How about telling us in advance (and I'm running Firefox, so a link would be easy) whether or not we're going to lose an important feature like the one I lost?
So, how do I get back to Firefox 5 without uninstalling and reinstalling so I can have that safe search feature back?

Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
Contact information Dennis [email protected]
Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion
DURIM - Okay. I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]? We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro? If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

How do I replace 32-bit Firefox 3.6 with a 64-bit "current version"?

Since my computer is a 64-bit system, I want to replace as much 32-bit software with 64-bit compilations and, as much as I can, abandon executables that can't be replaced.
Assuming that Mozilla has released a 64-bit compilation of Firefox, how do I identify it and obtain it?
"Firefox Setup 8.0.1.exe" doesn't tell me whether it installs 32-bit or 64-bit instead. The automagic Firefox Update sometimes wants to replace the 32-bit version 3.6 with a 32-bit "current version" that is not an actual update to 3.6.
One reason that I have continued running version 3.6 is that there is no compelling reason to replace an installed 32-bit application with some "upgrade" of the same 32-bit application on this computer. In fact, if Mozilla doesn't get off the dime and release a 64-bit compilation which it is willing to maintain, I will make the move the Chrome.

At this point in development it looks like the earliest that Mozilla will have officially supported 64-bit Firefox releases (for Windows) will be Firefox 12.0.
There is still a fair bit of work yet to do to get stable win 64-bit Firefox releases. If it was so easy, then there would have been 64-bit builds for Windows as early as Firefox 4.0. It was targeted for Firefox 8.0 originally (at end of June) then probably at 10.0 (mid August) and now they hope to get it done for 12.0.

Builders are ready to go.
Tests are green.
Perf numbers look good.
Client side updater requirements are done.
This was a big part in the steps to have 64-bit builds on Windows.

TS4498 Is it possible to support Logic in 32-bit plug-ins in future updates? How about to make a bridge built in Logic. I would have long ago moved on to a new version of Logic, but I have the equipment (UAD-1 and Liquid Mix), which are not run on the Loq

Is it possible to support Logic in 32-bit plug-ins in future updates? How about to make a bridge built in Logic. I would have long ago moved on to a new version of Logic, but I have the equipment (UAD-1 and Liquid Mix), which are not run on the Loqic X. So I would suggest to make a bridge in Logic X. As it was in version 9 of the Logic.

In addition.. Focusrite have stated they will not be releasing a 64bit version of Liquid Mix as they consider it outdated software these days.... even though at one point a limited release beta version had a 64bit AU version included but it was so unstable it was rapidly dropped...
However the 32bit to 64bit bridge plugin 32 Lives, states it will handle and 'convert' the Stereo version of Liquid Mix to 64bit but not the Mono version... within LPX
http://www.soundradix.com/products/32-lives/compatibility
Finally, like others here, I would be extremely surprised if Apple added 32bit AU support back into LPX.. That '32bit tech' is long dead and gone....in terms of modern DAWs... as it is in other DAWs such as the recent PT versions...

How can i convert the firefox-history-timestamp in places.sqlite into a normal date format? The firefox-timestamp is not equivalent to the unix-timestamp, that's why I ask. I could not find a conversion function. Does anyone know something about this?

As I opened the places.sqlite with an sqlite-editor I found out that firefox saves the last_visit_date via a timestamp which is 16 digits long. I realized that the first 10 digits are similar to the corresponding unix-timestamp but not equal. So.. how can i convert the firefox-timestamp into a normal date? Or into the corresponding unix-timestamp?

Write a bash script or 'C' program to change the date format and then use the sql update function to receive the stdio output 'where date_field='embeded date value'.

I need to know whether I am running 32 or 64 bit Firefox, how?

I am looking at programs that support 32 bit, not 64 in Firefox but cannot find what I am using.

The earliest Release there may be a Win64 Firefox from Mozilla.org is Firefox '''37.0''' in first phase. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/win64
It appears based on your useragent that you have 32-bit Windows XP.
32-bit Firefox on 64-bit Windows have WOW64 in the useragent to show it is a 32-bit application on 64-bit Windows.

Hello,
There is only 32-bit Firefox. It works the same regardless of whether you have a 32-bit version of Windows or a 64-bit version.

I'm tired of constantly reading "not yet" for any questions regarding a 64-bit Firefox. Exactly WHEN will there be a FF 64-bit?

I'm tired of constantly reading the simplified answer of "not yet" for any questions regarding a 64-bit Firefox. Exactly WHEN will there be a Firefox 64-bit?

That hasn't been decided yet for Windows PC's. So instead of "not yet", how about '''when it is ready for release'''?

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did the "see Advanced - General - Accessiblity. and still having problems

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did perform the "see Advanced - General - Accessibility. It worked for me and my "user" site (don't know how to say my site) and still having problems with my wife's. I have gone to OPTIONS → GONE TO → ADVANCE and CLICKED THE LINE → ""Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page…""
This did not rememdy the problem. I did try to get on the other site suggested
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.blockautorefresh
but got a 404 error...
I have googled the "ff prevented...." and after a number of hours searching I still have not found a fix...
REALLY HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME....
JM

You should still disable this setting:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
What is the value of the accessibility.blockautorefresh pref on the about:config page?
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.blockautorefresh
If you have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

The mozilla-derived Firefox-based browser known as Tenfourfox does a fair job and is about due for code upgrade near the end of this year from version 17 to version 24. Tenfourfox can run in Tiger 10.4.11 + Leopard 10.5.8.
http://www.tenfourfox.com/
I have & use both Tenfourfox + SeamonkeyPPC versions in my PPC G4 Macs. (My third choice is iCab...)
These both play well together and can be run simultaneosly without odd effects, unlike what can happen if you were to run the original Firefox and then launch Tenfourfox; as those share resources. I use SeaMonkey PPC for my web mail login via google Notifier, and have that set as the default browser through use of Safari's preference settings. Even though my first browser choice is Tenfourfox.
You can choose to 'enable plugins' of stuff that by default is turned off in tenfourfox, for security reasons, such as an older no-longer supported version of adobe's Flash. However, video such as youtube content will often automatically work OK from most sites via Tenfourfox now.
{There's also a seamonkey 'modern version' for intel-based macs w/ later OS X, not at the seamonkeyPPC site...}
Good luck & happy computing!

How do I move my Firefox bookmarks to another copy of Firefox on another computer, and how do I keep from overwriting the previous bookmarks on the "new" computer's Firefox?

My husband upgraded his iMac this year, and I'm getting his "old" one. I just want to know, first, how to transfer my bookmarks, and second, how to transfer them to his Firefox without overwriting his current bookmarks. And how do I open "my" Firefox, when the Firefox icon is connected to his information? Thanks!

Hi Guys, you make this sound easy. I have a 2005 Toshiba with about 6GB of music I loaded from CDs on it. It is an old PC and I want to retrieve the music before it crashes then deauthorize it.
I have a iMac desktop and want to import the 6GB to it.
I read the above and tried to copy the file but at 6GB it is bigger than a memory stick or CD and I can't get sharing to work.
My Imac can see the Toshiba in the IMPORT window....but won't allow me to import it.
Would it work if I got a cable with USB on each end and joined the 2 computers?
I also have iTunes Sharing and can see and play the Toshiba files on the Mac WHILE they are connected.......BUT I want to cut the connection and have the Toshiba songs independant on the Mac, then close down the PC.
Does anyone have a simple way. It is APPLE! I must be missing a simple solution here somewhere.
Thank you for your time.

It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files
You can try to set the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone pref on the about:config page to false.
