How can I re-install firefox 4? firefox 5 doesn't run a key plug in I need for my job. This is major issue. Please help.

I need to reinstall firefox 4 - where can I go to do that? Why does your site make this difficult to do?

Hi ancusm,
Unfortunately, downloading Firefox 4 is not recommended, because the update to Firefox 5 was a security-related fix. However, you can go back to Firefox 3.6.18, just download it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

How can I re-install firefox without losing my data. It is Infested with ADS BY bame.

Firefox is infested with "Ads by name".
How can I get rid of it or how can I
Re-Install firefox without losing any data?

Couple other suggestions:
Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Add/Remove Programs. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help surface innocent sounding bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
Also, could you check whether Firefox has a non-standard '''connection setting'''? You can do that here:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
The default "Use system proxy settings" should piggyback on your Windows/IE "LAN" settings. But you can try "No proxy" to see whether that makes any difference.
Finally, our support article [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] lists '''cleaning tools''' other Firefox users have found useful. These on-demand scanners are free and take considerable time to run. If they finish quickly and especially if they require payment, you may have a serious infection. I suggest the specialized forums listed in the article in that case.
Success?

How can i i install firefox on a computer i can't download it directly to

I need to make a copy of firefox to install on a computer that can't download from internet because IE is not installed how do i do this

Hey scopeland,
I'd say your best bet would be to download the Firefox installer and put it on a flash stick. Then you can plug it into the computer that doesn't have IE and install Firefox that way.
Hope this helps!

From a script (e.g. REXX or BAT) how can I tell if Firefox is up and running?

System: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I'm trying to open Firefox with multiple tabs open at one time using a program, which reads a configuration file (XML). I discovered when using the "-new-tab" command line parameter, I get one windows for each URL instead of one window with multiple tabs.
I can get it to work IF Firefox is already up and fully running. In other words its frames exist and are visible. If Firefox is only running (say in the tasklist) but not yet visible, the user again gets one window for each URL (e.g. 5 URLs = 5 Firefox windows) instead of 1 window with 5 tabs.
Thus I've been wondering is there a method in Windows or using Firefox to tell from a script (e.g. REXX, BAT, Perl, etc) if Firefox is completely visible and running, so when you a script uses the "-new-tab" parameter the tab appears instead of a window (per URL).

Hello and thank you for your reply,
Now I wish I hadn't "cleaned" up my question to make it easier to read, but instead included examples. In my case, the initial firefox.exe command I used was:
cmd /C start "FFXI Firefox" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -new-tab "http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Main_Page" -new-tab "http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Category:Combat_Skills" -new-tab "file:///C:/Users/Bertram Moshier/Programs/FFXI/FFXI_Skill_Caps.html" -new-tab "http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Skill_Ups:_A_Guide_by_Kyrial" -new-tab "http://www.mithrapride.org/vana_time/" -new-tab "http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Dragoon" "http://ffxi.somepage.com/mobdb/" -new-tab "http://www.ffxiah.com/item/4558/yagudo-drink" -new-tab "http://greatbigsea.guildlaunch.com/forums/index.php?gid=108403" -new-tab "http://guildwork.com/games/ffxi/shouts"
As you can see in this version I put "-new-tab" in front of each URL and the result, since firefox version 9.0.1 has been:
1) If firefox.exe is fully up and running a tab for each URL opens in one window.
2) If firefox.exe is not fully up and running a window for each URL opens with only one tab.
So, ah, I have been trying the -new-tab method from the start. Recently, I tried removing the -new-tab and it has been working, but I think that is more of a fluke than correctly working, as it goes against the documentation.
As for tell if firefox is up and running, thanks! I've been using the following code, which is similar to yours. What I found, though, is simply having firefox.exe up and running in advance (or starting it) is NOT enough. Like your code, mine, tells if it is running in the Window's tasklist. Yet, my experience, thus far, has been until the firefox window appears, you still get the multiple windows for each "-new-tab" you send. Only if firefox.exe is already FULLY up and running with its windows visible does the "-new-tab" work per the documentation.
Here is the core code I've been using (using REXX) -- this is static code on the URL and not the XML configuration version.
NOTE: I think it is basically the same as your code, but longer . . . . My hope was the code would wait till firefox would be up enough for the "-new-tab" to work, which I find to be between 8 and 15 seconds depending upon the system. Again what I discovered is simply having the tasklist command show firefox.exe running is NOT enough. Well, this is true on my Windows 7 x64 system (Firefox 9.0.1 - 16)

How can I re-install Firefox v3.6.17?

I do not like v4.0 and want v3.6.17 back. How do I do this?
v4 has that irritating dotted triangle in the bottom right hand corner that does not allow me to scroll email messages.

Cannot install Firefox on new HP running windows 7. After it extracts file I get this error message: specific path does not exist

It then goes on to say, check path and try again. I created the file path and soon realized that it changes the name of the path each time.
Example path:
c:\\Users\Karen\AppData\Local\Temp\7zSCAD.tmp\setup.exe
Running windows 7, 64 bit and was trying to download the new Firefox 7. When that didn't work I tried an older version and received the same message.
I loved Firefox on my old computer which was running XP. I hope that there is a fix for this.
Thanks!
Karen

Thanks for the help...worked like a charm! :D

My ipod classic ran out of battery, when I turned it back on all my songs were gone. How can I recover them on a windows vista computer? Also, the itunes on my vista does not have all my original songs. Please help

My Ipod Classic died because it ran out of battery. Finally, today when I was able to plug it into my computer to
charge it, all my music was gone. It did not show up on the Itunes nor was it present on my Ipod. Which freaked
me out. I dont know what to do because I do have Itunes but all the music I had on my Ipod was from my
first computer, which I no longer have because it was stolen. However, on my Itunes it says my Ipod
has 14.27 GB used and 13.55 FREE. So I just want to know how to get my music back on to my Ipod
and that it shows up in Itunes again. I have a Windows Vista so if anyone knows instructions it would
be greatly appreciated!

I inadvertently deleted and emptied the trash bin on Firefox. I have a MAC OSX-VERSION 10.4.11. How can I re-install the latest version of Firefox that is COMPUTER FRIENDLY for the MAC OSX Version 10.4.11? I appreciate any help.

I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!

As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg

How can I be certain Firefox 4 has been installed in this computer?

I followed procedures to install Firefox4. Previously I had installed 3.6 or 3.7.
I never received indication that the installation has been effective, but I have two icons mysteriously on my desktop now. Where can I find evidence of all but Firefox 4 being discarded and Firefox 4 becoming active?

Your (More) system details shows that you used Firefox 4.0.1 to post your message.

I am college student and my professors require we use Turnitin however Turnitin does not support Firefox 4 how can I get it to work with Firefox 4 or how can I return to Firefox 3

Turnitin will not work with firefox 4 how can I return to firefox 3 or how can I get firefox 4 and Turnitin in sync

The Turnitin system requirements on mention Firefox 3. If it does not support Firefox 4 you can downgrade to Firefox 3.6
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles
