How can I open Firefox 3.6.15 in non-administrator profiles?

When I installed Firefox 3.6.15, the previous version (3.6.13) opened in non-administrator profiles on my computer. I uninstalled 3.6.13, but firefox.exe is now in a different location: c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Mozilla Firefox. Administrator rights are required to open the file in this location. How can I get Firefox to open now?

Firefox installs to C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Firefox by default.
Did you do a custom installation to that \All Users\AppData folder?

How can I open Firefox 4.0 (or my old Firefox 2.0.0.12)

I had been using Foxfire 2.0.0.12 with Mac OSX 10.3.9 . I had Mac OSX 1o.5.8 installed a month ago and just now downloaded Firefox 4.0 . Now I can't open either version. I get the message - (You can't open the application "Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture.) So, right now, I can't access any Firefox program. Did I lose both Firefox versions? Someone PLEASE help! Thanks.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

How can I open Firefox in safemode?

My roommate had a Ransom Ware page pop up on her HP Envy Win8 desktop computer. She immediately shut down Firefox. Firefox is set to re-open tabs when opening, and that tab is showing up. When she tries to close that tab, it opens and asks "Do you want to navigate from this page" in a small pop up window.
I told her not to select anything on that page and just close Firefox with Task Manager. I said to re-start Firefox in "Safe Mode" but, there is no Safe Mode option.
Help!
Roommates computer: HP Envy 20 Desktop, Windows 8, Firefox 25.

hello halfdeaded, you can launch firefox in safemode by pressing the shift-key while it's launching, however i'm not sure if this will work in solving the issue.
if the site is just preventing you from navigating away you might want to disable javascript temporarily: open a new tab & enter '''about:config''' into the addressbar (confirm the notice). in there search for the preference named '''javascript.enabled''' and double-click it in order to change its value to '''false'''. then it should immediately be possible to close the scam-site in question. afterwards turn back the javascript.enabled preference...
in case the site opened by its own, there already might be malware present on the computer. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

When FireFox opens, click 'Edit' and 'Find'. This opens the box/bar at the bottom of the screen. I use it so often, I would like FireFox to open with the 'Find' box/bar already open.

How can I launch firefox on different displays simultaneously without creating profiles for each of them

On my solaris server, there is an application which, in order to display some information, opens the browser. The server can be accessed thorugh X windows by various users. The issue is that whn firefox is open on one display, it fails to open on another display.
The resolution for this problem as suggested by a lot of users on various forums is to create different profiles for various firefox instances. However, everytime my application will launch firefox, i will have to invoke it with -P option which will pop up the profile manager. I do not wish to show the pop up for creating profiles:(. Is there some way to allow multilple instances of firefox to run on different displays?

when you lock the preferences with the mozilla.cfg file in the firefox program folder as it's described in the mozillazine kb article above, it should apply for all users...

How do you open Firefox in 32 bit?

Hi
I'm using Win7 64 bit & I need to open Firefox in 32 bit. A plugin I need doesn't like 64 bit.
Everything I have found so far pertains to Mac.
How can I open Firefox in 32 bit?
Thanks

Thanks for responding! I am trying to use Sibelius Scorch plugin which is a 32 bit plugin. Every post I have seen on this says that I have to run Firefox in 32 bit for it to work.
I have another pc that is XP 32 bit & it works fine in Firefox, which would confirm what I had read. Any ideas as to how I can use this plugin on my 64 bit OS with Firefox?
Thanks again!

I am able to open PDFs from the Internet normally using the Adobe Reader X plugin, but for some reason, it doesn't kick in when I open local PDF files.
I am using Firefox 4.0.1 and Adobe Reader X.

Do you have any graphics editing software like photoshop or something similar.?
Surely you can just open both images, resize the image you want to add, then copy and paste it into the main image. Save this as a new file and set it as the background.
If you need a graphics editing program you can download one called The Gimp for free. Just make sure you have X11 installed.

How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:
