How do I install firefox on my computer I have downloaded it already,I am a first time user.

I downloaded mozilla firefox,and i dont know how to install it,can you help me/

How old is that EeePC?
If that is one of the original versions, from 2007 - 2009, the Xandros operating system doesn't support anything newer than Firefox 2.0 !
I have a EeePC 900, and in 2009 I installed EasyPeasy OS [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EasyPeasy] so that I could run Firefox 3.6. Unfortunately, EasyPeasy was discontinued in 2012 altogether, but work on it had quit in like 2010 when Ubuntu started adding files needed for Netbooks like the EeePC.
Overall, ASUS used a weird OS to begin with on the first EeePC 700 model - Xandros, which was already a couple of years behind the Linux-curve as far as security updates and file version levels. And then ASUS didn't provide funding to the team that created Xandros to make it more up-to-date.
Then there is the issue of Microsoft seeing the Netbook market slip thru their fingers, and MS putting pressure on ASUS to use a "Lite" version of WinXP, which did become an option after the 900 versions. But that's another story ...
Bottom line is that you need a different, newer Operating System for that device to be able to use a newer version of Firefox. Best thing to do is to head over to the Ubuntu support fora and ask about an appropriate Linux distro for your EeePC.

I don't use my EeePC for the purpose I originally got it for ''(the company I worked in for 2008 went bust in 2010 - I was an outside service rep and did on-site job reporting with the EeePC which fit in my toolbag)'', and I never updated it beyond EasyPeasy and Firefox 3.6. I use it now on my local network in my home and don't go on the internet with it. Basically a terminal on the network for viewing and editing locally saved files when I am watching TV, during commercials.

  • How do I install firefox when I don't have any browser?

    Hi there,
    I just had to wipe my hard drive clean and reinstall windows and all my docs and software. The tech folks didn't reinstall any browser--so now how do I download one? (I'm using another computer now.)
    Thanks for your help!

    You can download the Firefox installer via the computer that you use now and copy the file to an USB stick or CD-ROM to install Firefox on your computer.
    You can find all Firefox versions here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

  • How do I install firefox on my Asus EeePC having downloaded and decompressed it?

    My notebook came with firefox installed on the Xandros operating system, but I have been prompted to download the latest version. I have done so and now need to load into the system. I have no instructions for that I realize I need to get the command console up but what do I type into this? The Xandros system has an add new software button but only for the existing linux - it does not recognise ither versions

  • My company blocks executables from running in the Temp folder. How can I install Firefox without it trying to run download.exe from a temp folder?

    I found a workaround for the problem of not being able to run executables from the Temp folder.
    I happened upon the Full Firefox installer download page. I downloaded the full installer and used WinRar to extract the downloaded file to a folder then I could run setup.exe and Firefox installed successfully.
    Please publish the link to the full Firefox installer on the same page where the stub installer is published.
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    Full installers can always be downloaded here:
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    I am assuming you went to this page:
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    I notice the page has changed a little from the last time I saw it, but you can reach the first link I posted by clicking "Systems & Languages".

  • How do I install Firefox in English on a computer in Mexico?

    ''I have a Dell 2009 computer with 4 gigs of memory. I am running Windows 7 home ultimate. My home is in San Carlos Mexico. I had Firefox installed with the Windows 7 as my web browser. I uninstalled Windows 7 and went back to Windows XP service pack 3. After realizing my dumb error I had Windows 7 re-installed, but when I download Firefox it only installs in Spanish(which I don't speak). I have tried many times to reinstall it(I even have my IP address located in the United States via Hide-My-Ip aplication) but it still installs in Spanish.My question is: How can I install Firefox on my computer? Would a cd with Firefox on it work? Please advise as I really like Firefox much better than IE(which installed on my computer in English ok).Thank you for your prompt response. Charles Yoder

    You can get the English version from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

  • How do I install Firefox Mobil on my Andriod phone once I download it to my desktop computer?

    How do I install Firefox Mobil on my Andriod (Droid) phone once I download Firefox Mobil to my desktop computer?

    The easiest way to install Firefox to your Android phone is to download it directly to your phone. Go to [http://firefox.com/m/beta firefox.com/m/beta] in your phone's browser, press the download button, and then open the downloaded file to install it.
    Or, if you have the Android SDK development tools installed on your PC and are comfortable using the command line, you can use the [http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html adb] command to install from your PC to your phone.

    I downloaded the new version of Firefox. The download put it in a folder on my desktop. Now what? How do I install it on the computer?

    See:

    There is no installer on Linux, just extract the files from the tar.bz2 archive and copy them to a folder and create a new launcher on the desktop to start the firefox script.

    '''Is there a way to download FF to a USB from another computer and install it from that USB on my PC? '''
    You basically answered your own question. If you have access to another computer just go download the appropriate language and OS version of Firefox 5.0 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html and put it on you usb drive and then go and install it onto you pc.

  • How do I install Firefox updates? I have 13.0 and cannot install updates.

    How do I install updates? I have tried everything on your website, and nothing works. I have a Mac 10.7.5 and have NEVER been able to install updates. The bar just keeps moving when I tell it to update, but nothing ever happens. It will do this for hours, but never updates. Telephone help would be very helpful. I would appreciate being able to talk to someone who could walk me through this process. Now my bank account site has a message that tells me I need to update Firefox.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
    *Firefox 25.0.1: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
    Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • How can I install Premiere in another computer

    How can I install Premiere in another computer, if my main computer does not work.  The service is paying monthly. 

    As far as I have understood it you can install PP on as many computers as you like, but only two can be active at the same time. So if you have installed it on just one computer you should have no problems installing it on a second one. If you want to install it on a third, you would have to deactivate one of the other previous installations to get it to run.

    After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

    I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

  • How do I stop Firefox launching at computer startup?

    How do I stop Firefox launching at computer startup?
    ''Duplicate post, continue [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/746670 here]''

    Firefox has no option to launch at startup, it will be an operating system setting that is launching Firefox.
    # Log in as the user who wishes to have a login item or as an admin user.
    # Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    # Choose Accounts from the View menu.
    # Click the name of the user.
    # Click the Login Items button
    # Select Firefox in the list of startup items.
    # Stop Firefox launching at startup by clicking on the minus sign.

    after i install firefox on my computer, i click on it and it doesnt open up, it just says it loading up then it stop loading
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    When you say "it just says it loading up" I assume that the window has appeared, and your start page is not loading.
    Do you have any security software that might be getting in the way? Firewall? Anti-virus?
