How do i go back to using the previous version of firefox?

I absolutely HATEHATEHATE the firefox 4.
My main problem is the refresh button.
I get on 4chan frequently and it requires constantly updating and refreshing the page.
I was wondering if i could go back to the old version somehow which i liked so much better.

Just follow cor-el advice and you'll get your Refresh button back:

My computer freezes when I try to log in to You Tube and is still "running" after I close it. How can I go back to my the previous version of Firefox?

After downloading Firefox 4 Beta, my personal website does not display as it used to. The text is now aligned left when it was centered. Also, when I try to log in to You Tube, everything freezes. I have to use the computer task manager to close the browser. When I try to open Firefox again, I get a message stating it is still running and I must close it or re-start my computer to open Firefox again.
I would like to return to the previous version of Firefox.

You can get duplicate installation disks from Apple Customer Service. You will have to provide them with the MBP serial number and there is a charge,
Another option is to purchase the Snow Leopard retail disk from the Apple online store:

Either option should allow you to install an OSX.

Firefox 4 has already crashed at least a dozen times since I started using it less than a week ago. How do I go back to using the previous version?

It crashes on many sites, but I've noticed it happening most often when using gmail.

I had the same problem, so i re-installed FireFox 3.6.16 on my PC.
First, I saved my FireFox bookmarks.
I then Downloaded and Saved version 3.6.16
The following mozilla page has FireFox 3.6.16 for download...

I then uninstalled version 4 (via the Control Panel) and then I re-installed version 3.6.16 (the older version is working ok on my PC).

I downloaded Firefox 4.0.1 and have not been able to use my DigitalPersona fingerprint login since. Will this be added on or can you tell me how to go back to using the older version of Firefox so I can use my fingerprint login again? Thanks

I have not been able to use my digitalPersona v4.11.3826 (fingerprint login) since I downloaded firefox 4.0.1. Will this be incorporated to the add-ons or if not, can you tell me what the easiest way is to go back to using the older version of Firefox?

The upgrade to Firefox 4 is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall it and go back to using the previous version?

Firefox 4 is absolutely awful - it is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall Firefox 4 and go back to the previous version of Firefox?

According to the instructions given on the Norton Community forum under "Other Norton Products/Comcast-Customers - Norton Toolbar Problem in Firefox 10", I have done everything necessary. And I do have a Norton toolbar (Safe Web and Identity Safe) when I open Firefox 10. As was mentioned in the previous posts here, you need to run manual LiveUpdate then reboot until you have version 5.2.0.13. Then reboot and run manual LiveUpdate again and reboot once more. One thing that I noticed is that Norton never told me that it had updated the patch for Firefox 10, so I didn't know. I guess if you have the toolbar when you run Firefox 10, then you have done it all.

Hey ZachLynn,
There are a lot of benefits to running the latest version of Firefox. What extension are you missing?
If you still want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].
Hopefully this helps!

I created a signature ID and customized the signature; however, when I go to sign it only shows the name layout or graphic image? How do I go back to using the certificate?

Dear Forum
I was using Adobe version XI and the signature feature disappeared from the menu. Now I downloaded Acrobat Reader DC. Using the menu and instructions I created a signature ID and customized the signature; however, when I go to sign a document it only shows the name layout or graphic image? How do I go back to using the certificate that I created?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Recently, I updated to Firefox 4.0.1, and the new version disabled several of my programs, including my anti-virus. How can I go back to the previous version of Firefox?

I want to go back to the previous version of Firefox, because the new version (4.0.1 I think) that I downloaded disabled several of my programs, including my anti-virus program, because they were incompatible with the new version of Firefox. How do I get back to the previous version of Firefox and re-enable the disabled programs?

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

The loading bar at the bottom of my browser has disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the lastest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP.

The loading bar at the bottom of my Firefox browser has suddenly disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the latest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP. I have many add ons and I usually automatically install the recommended updates. This problem has never happened before and switching my browser on and off again does not solve the issue.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I am not sure why this suddenly happened. I think it may have been after my usual updates but I am not sure if that has anything to do with it at all.

Loading Bar? Maybe the URL/address bar where you type sites you want to go to (like www.google.com)? See Navigation Bar below. You may also need to see the first item "Can't see the Menu Bar".
'''Can't see the Menu Bar''' (File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help)?
Turning the Menu Bar on and off is a new feature in version 3.6.
''(Linux & OSX see: [[Menu bar is missing]] )''
''Windows'' Method 1. '''''Hold down''''' the key and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M
''Windows'' Method 2. Press and release the key. The Menu Bar will be displayed; then choose ~~red:V~~iew > ~~red:T~~oolbars and click on ~~red:M~~enu Bar.
The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again using View > Toolbars. Check mark = displayed, NO check mark = not displayed.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Menu+bar+is+missing
'''Navigation Toolbar, Bookmarks Toolbar and other Toolbars''' under View > Toolbars. Clicking on one of them will place a check mark (display) or remove the check mark (not displayed).

You can un-install the Mozilla ActiveX control as Firefox no longer uses it and hasn't since, as I recall, version 2. See: [[ActiveX]]

Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this : STOP ERROR

Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this
the website is www.mail.yahoo.com. i was getting the same STOP script error every now and then in firefox 6 as well

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

I upgraded to firefox 4 but it is not suitable for my version of Mac Os and don't know how to get the previous version of firefox back!

I downloaded the latest version of Firefox (ie 4) on my Apple laptop, but the fact that it is "unsuitable for (my version of) Mac Os " was not revealed to me until I had already replaced the previous version which was suitable. I don't know how to retrieve the version I was using.

The latest versions of Firefox require at least Mac OS X 10.5 and an Intel processor. You can revert to Firefox 3.6.xx for Mac 10.4 by downloading the installer from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

How can I check if I am using the latest version of Firefox browser? I have just seen a popup saying I am not and that I should click on the popup to upgrade.
