How do i load and use an earlier version of firefox
I need to reject V8 and load an earlier version please?
Hi shutters,
There is a Knowledge Base article called [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] that should have all the information you need to roll back to an earlier version of Firefox.
Out of curiosity,what is your reason for rolling back? The developers are always interested in hearing about user's experiences with Firefox. You should consider leaving [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback feedback] for them so that they can continue to improve the product.
Hopefully this helps!

Just got iPhone 5, get home and find iCloud Outlook Add-in does not install under Windows XP. I am loathe to upgrade to Windows Vista/7/8 just yet. Can I obtain and use an earlier version of iCloud Outlook Add-in? My iPad II synchronizes!
There is no 'earlier' version that supports XP. iCloud launched with Vista/7 support only.

I'm using an earlier version of Firefox (v. 3.6.18), downloaded the add-on but it will not open. I received a error message saying safari can't open "firefox_sync-1.7-sm+fn+fx.xpi" because no available application can open it.

Ever since I upgraded my Firefox to 4.01.1, everthing loads much, much slower.......I can go make a coffee while the page loads. Sometimes, it is soooooooooo slow, that it times out and I have to start all over again. Even when I sign on and load google, sometimes it takes forever.
I also do not like the toolbar at the top. It's grey and hard to read, what is wrong with white?
Can I revert back to the earlier version of Firefox? It worked much better. I use ancestry.com a lot and they even recommend a 3.??? version of Firefox.
Anything is better, so I don't have to sit and wait and wait and wait.Thank you, Zenos. I tried rolling back to v31.2.0, since I had not encountered problems prior to December. However, that didn't help. So I followed your valuable suggestion to revert to v24.6; that seems to have done the trick.
I would like to mark this problem as "Solved" -- the rollback seems to have worked. However, since my original post was a complex mix of things, before I do that, should I post the individual problem sets that I had noted (address fields/nicknames problems -- numbers 1-3; default font problem -- number 4; attachment reminder problem -- number 5) as separate issues which have not been solved?
Do you know if these various issues are being worked on? I'm glad to have the temporary fix of rolling back to an earlier version, but I'd like to get back on the current update schedule at some point if and when these problems have been corrected.
Thank you again! -
Just need to download an earlier version of firefox, either 3.5 or 3.6 for vista operating system. How do I do this?
The fafsa.gov site does not currently support Firefox newer than version 3.6.x. That is their choice.
You can install Firefox Portable version to use only on that site and use your installed Firefox 5 for everything else. Firefox Portable installs in a separate folder on your hard drive so that it does not interfere with your Firefox 5.0.1 settings or personal information (bookmarks, passwords, etc.). You can also install Firefox Portable on a USB/thumb/pin drive.

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?

Before i downloaded your firefox 8.0.1, I used firefox to 'save as' the ''Unrealized gain/loss page'' from a brokerage account, - for my ongoing historical financial records file (safari doesn't work for this site).
On the Unrealized gain/loss page, there is a '+' symbol (in front of each stock owned) that one needs to 'clic' on (turns to a -) to see the various dates (and financial data) when you purchased different lots of the same stock. (say, ''IBM''; purchased IBM shares on 21-10-'11, 100 shares, @ $147, current price @ $180, gain of $33/share, total gain $3,300 / 10-14-'11 purchased 200 IBM shares, @ $191, current price @ $180, loss of $11/share, total loss $2200 / - and so on for however many individual 'lots' one has of that particular stock. ). This information is very important to me, and now i can not 'save' it.
- So I want to know how I 'fix' this - or - how I can go back to the earlier version, that did work.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.

My Mac is running OSX10.4.11. Where do I go to download an earlier version of Firefox (before 4.0) that is compatible with my system?
Yeah, Firefox 4 requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later. You can download Firefox 3.6 from [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html this download page].

I downloaded 6.2 and the previous bookmarks were not transferred nor was the Task bar. How do I retrieve the old bookmarks and Task bar and put them in 6.2
See:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/common-questions-after-updating-firefox
Do you mean the Status bar?
The Status Bar has been replaced by the Add-ons bar that extensions can use for icons and information.
You can use this extension to get the Status Bar back:
* Status-4-Evar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
Which Firefox version did you previously had?<br />
Firefox should still use the same profile with all personal data.
Is other personal data missing?
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
