How do you install a Firefox download on linux/Helena 8?

I downloaded the newest version, extracted the files...now, how do I get it to install?

The libstdc++5 should not be as much of a issue now and I think the issue was actually fixed as of Firefox 5.0.
As for installing there is no install or make file or such as the tarbal is basically a zip file where you just extract and then run the firefox script in the firefox folder. You may want to create a desktop or panel launcher to the firefox script if you do not want to start it in terminal each time. Also if you are the only user then a easy way around the read/write permissions issues (for Firefox updates) is to put it in a folder in /home/
There used to be a Linux installer also but it took a extra for what was basically was the same thing and was discontinued as of Firefox 1.5 as a result.

  • How do you install the Firefox os?

    I see no way to download it.

    hello, sorry currently mozilla's focus for firefox os is getting it shipped on as many dedicated devices as possible. there is no official support provided for flashing it onto third-party devices - this is no straightforward process and there will be issues with drivers and other stuff. for popular devices like the nexus series there might be resources provided by the community. you'd may want to try looking around in a more developer focused forum like http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php and see if there is anything available for your device by any chance...

    PS CC 2014 DNG and RAW 8.5 did not update with the rest of the CC package. I downloaded/installed the DNG/RAW converter but how do you install w/i CC 2014 plugins

    Thanks John. I have tried solutions 1 to 3 from (-http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.h tml) and they do not work. So I presume that all I can do is to remove all 25 CC applications and start again!
    Incidently, ( http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ ) does not list Adobe Camera Raw 8.4 as an update even though Adobe have announced that it is available (http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2014/04/camera-raw-8-4-and-dng-converter-8-4-now-a vailable.html). The same applies for Adobe Premiere Pro 7.2.2 (http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2014/04/premiere-pro-cc-7-2-2.html). If they are not available this would explain why I cannot download them but I am very suprised that Adobe didn't mention this when I contacted them.
    Anyway thanks again

  • How do you Install programs to one user account on a macbook pro?

    I want to download programs to my user account on my laptop without the other peoples accounts having access to it. How do you specify only to download to this account, or change the settings of past installed programs to only be accessible to my account and not the others

    As Csound1 has already pointed out create a folder in your Home folder for only those applications that you want exclusive access to like this one in my Home folder:
    For those application that have an installer, you'll need to install and then move the app from the Applications folder to your own app folder.

  • How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

    How can i install mozilla firefox on my iBook G4

    The mozilla-derived Firefox-based browser known as Tenfourfox does a fair job and is about due for code upgrade near the end of  this year from version 17 to version 24. Tenfourfox can run in Tiger 10.4.11 + Leopard 10.5.8.
    http://www.tenfourfox.com/
    I have & use both Tenfourfox + SeamonkeyPPC versions in my PPC G4 Macs. (My third choice is iCab...)
    These both play well together and can be run simultaneosly without odd effects, unlike what can happen if you were to run the original Firefox and then launch Tenfourfox; as those share resources. I use SeaMonkey PPC for my web mail login via google Notifier, and have that set as the default browser through use of Safari's preference settings. Even though my first browser choice is Tenfourfox.
    You can choose to 'enable plugins' of stuff that by default is turned off in tenfourfox, for security reasons, such as an older no-longer supported version of adobe's Flash. However, video such as youtube content will often automatically work OK from most sites via Tenfourfox now.
    {There's also a seamonkey 'modern version' for intel-based macs w/ later OS X, not at the seamonkeyPPC site...}
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How do you install mountain lion on all your macs in the household using one 20 dollar license?

    how do you install mountain lion on all your macs in the houshold with the same license (you only pay 20 bucks for all your macs) is that right?

    As long as they're all logged into the Mac App store with the same Apple ID, you can re-download the installer to all the Macs.
    Or you can save a copy of the installer file before you run it and use that to update the other Macs. The ML installer file will appear in your Applications folder when it's done downloading. Copy it to another location (don't move it).
    If you don't copy it before you upgrade, it will disappear when ML is finished installing.
