How do i rollback Firefox 8 to my previously installed version of firefox?

I have upgraded from Mac OSX Firefox Version 3.6something to 8. I prefer my 3.6something. Is there a way to rollback the version?

I want to roll back to ver 7.0 until the time when/if two add-ons are updated to be compatible with 8.0. Ver 3.6 is much further back than i want to go. I seemed to remember there used to be a page at mozilla.org to download ''any'' previous version. But i couldn't find anything like that now. Still version 7.0.1 is available at http://www.top10download.com/mozilla-firefox-7

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs. It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
Try:

Need to reinstall Photoshop CS2 but it can't find a previously installed version so won't reinstall

Photoshop CS2 told me there was a "major problem" and that I would need to reinstall the software to continue using it.
So I used the installer CD, but it told me it could not install because there was already a copy installed, which would need to be removed.
So I removed the old version and tried to reinstall but now it tells me it needs a previously installed version in order to reinstall.
Adobe "customer service"chat is 100% useless on this, referred me to the 800 #, been on hold for over 45 miinutes now, and no relevant topics found on "help" forums.
For a multibillion dollar monopoly, you'd think they could hire a couple of customer service reps but I guess it's all DIY "support" here, so can anyone help?

So, you are NOT trying to reinstall an upgrade, but a purchased version (not in an upgrade path from one version to the next)?
If that is correct, there should be no request for a "previously installed version." That only appears when one is installing an upgrade.
Are you installing from physical media (a DVD), or from a download?
Sorry, I do not have an answer for you.
Good luck,

How can i open a TEXTPAD LINK in recent versions of firefox in a P R I V A T E window?

No matter what i've tried in recent versions of firefox, i can ONLY open a textpad link in a private window with OLD VERSIONS of firefox, where a private window REPLACES non private window(s) !
In later versions, private mode opens an ADDITIONAL window that is private, but the non private window(s) remain too.
So when I right click on a link in Textpad to open it, it ALWAYS opens the link in the latest NON private window!!! Even if I get rid of the non private windows!
I have tried Palemoon Browser(an optimized clone of Firefox) & no difference, unless I use old version 19.0.2 of that browser.
If there was a way in the registry(via an addon or manual change) to make the latest vers of FF beHAVE like the much older version when going into private mode, that might be a quick fix.
Have I stumped everyone? lol

Well... even though there is a command-line option to open a new private window, there is no way to feed a URL to that window externally. Firefox will always open the URL in a new non-private window. It's not clear why it was set up this way.

Why did Firefox "upgrade" me to a version of Firefox that is incompatible with the new version? Where do I find the previous version and reload it??ne

I have an iMac OS version 10.4. Mozilla automatically upgraded me to the new version of Firefox EVEN THOUGH the computer should have "told" it that it wasn't compatible. I'm getting that message when I try to download Firefox from the web site today. (I've had to do that before when one of the ever-so-helpful reinstalls crashed and burned repeatedly) So, now all I get is crash reporter when I try to use Firefox.
Where do I go to download and reinstall the previous version AND also PREVENT Mozilla from being ever so helpful in the future?
Major glitch in the Mozilla process if you force users to "upgrade" and then it's broken. It's not an upgrade if you create problems for the user. That's very, very poor planning and service.
I'll be writing more about this in a blog post at www.maryschmidt.com.

Is this the HP Simplepass application? If it is EgisTec, who now provide the HP Simplepass application, have made an update of the scanner software for Firefox 4, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/questions/814397

Every time i try and update firefox a window pops up ad says that I must reboot firefox from a previous install and when i do and i try to reinstall firefox the same pop up comes up and it won't let me update to the new version

How can we cancel Firefox attempts to load new version of Firefox or successfully load it

Firefox is attempting to load the new version of Firefox and keeps failing, with this message showing. "Updates can`t be installed, make sure no other copies of firefox are running on computer then restart. When you X out or click on OK, it tries again and keeps repeating this cycle, not letting us connet to the internet. How can we cancel the update attempts or successfully load the new version so we can access the internet sgain

If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

How do I fix the problems with the newest version of firefox

I a having a major problem with the newest version of firefox and I am not happy with it. I did everything that I am supposed to do with the reset, but it is still not working correctly. It has a lot of no responses and freezing up problems.
How do I fix this problem?

You didn't provide any information about your Firefox setup. Can you do that and paste it in a new reply?
*Navigate to <code>about:support</code> via Address Bar
*Click the button that says <code>Copy text to clipboard</code>
*Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox opens and works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
*'''Windows/Mac''': Hold the SHIFT/Option key while opening Firefox
*'''Linux''': Run ''firefox -safe-mode'' in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.

I'm getting messages that I need to update Firefox. I have installed version 7.0.1. What's the deal?

I want to check out Google + . I'm getting a message that says: Your Browser is no longer supported.
Google+ no longer supports your browser. Please upgrade your browser.
The message also says Google + is supported by Firefox 3.6 and up. I have Firefox 7.0.1

Your UserAgent string in Firefox was messed up by an addon that you installed.

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter = general.useragent.
Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
Then restart Firefox

Removing a previous installed version of MySQL

When I try to install a production version of MySQL after previously installing a beta version the Installer balks with the comment "Can't install because a newer version exists'.
I have removed /usr/local/mysql...beta and the link to it and the MySQL in PreferencePanes.
Are there other mysql files that the OS recognizes that would stop the installation?

Try the Unix forum under OS X Technologies. BTW, in Snow Leopard, all receipts are stored in /var/db/receipts/ and all you'll find in /Library/Receipts/ is the InstallHistory.plist file. Anything else is a holdover from Leopard and can be safely deleted.

Since upgrading to Firefox 6, I can't use my autofill forms. It now has my name and address but doesn't have credit card or password information that it had before and I don't know how to input it or import it from former versions of Firefox.

I just upgraded to Firefox 5. Before when I filled in a form, I just had to click autofill and all my information was provided. I found autofill on customize toolbars and added it, but it only had my name and address, not my credit cards or passwords. Before I could click on them and change them if I needed to. I would like to input them on this version or import them from the last one so I can easily fill forms online, but I can't see how to do it.

Reinstalled Win 7 Home Pre. have an icon on desk top titled Old Firefox Data, how can I get this info into my new version of Firefox, FAQ's not clear on this.

Read FAQ's but did not see how I was to proceed to restore the data in the Old FireFox Data folder on my desktop. It should hold all of my bookmarks, passwords and other data that I would like to recover into this new install of FireFox.

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; '''Old Firefox?'''

How can I uninstall a previously installed version of Aperature from another owner?

Hi,
I purcased my iMac from a previous owner. His version of Aperature is still on it - registered under his AppleID. I would like to uninstall it as it is preventing me from using my own version of iPhoto. How can I do this? Would it be asvisable to uninstall it and then purchase a new version of Aperature and then convert my iPhoto library to Aperature? Right now, iPhoto wont launch becuase it wants me to upgrade Aperature, but I don't own a registered copy to my Apple ID, so I can't upgrade it.
My setup is:
iMac 27" 12,2
3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
32GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
Aperature 3.2.4
iPhoto 9.5.1
Thank you!

The previous owner of that machine should have wiped it and install the original OS that shipped with the system leaving the system at the point where the new owner takes over and enters all there own information.
Before you go much further with this machine you should seriously consider backing up any new stuff you have done and wiping it and starting from scratch. If you keep the system like it is you will be plagued with problems. Even doing OS updates will prove frustrating.
Right now the best you can do is to move the Aperture that is on the system into the trash, log into the App Store using your ID and buying Aperture. That should work but to be honest I have never had to do it so can;t say for sure.
You might want to look at this What to do before selling or giving away your Mac from Apple to read what they recommend.
good luck
