How to install Firefox 5.1 in Ubuntu 11.4

How do I install Firefox 5.1 into Ubuntu 11.4 using a terminal window.

I want to thank you for your time and trouble, however, I had already reviewed the documents you provided links to. I am not versed in Linux and there are details left out. I will return to this when I have more time. I just thought I'd give Ubuntu a try see. I prefer the way Windows installers work - they do the work.
Again thanks.

How to install firefox 4Rc in linux (ubu) .I need help

I am using '''ubuntu''' os .
I already have''' firefox 3.6.'''
I have '''firefox 4RC file''' but I don't know how to install that file
help me to install that .

I suppose that you downloaded the tar.gz file from Mozilla's .com or ftp site. I don't think that it is packaged with an installer. There are several ways to run FF4RC depending on what you want if for. Several of these options can be found in this thread:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=330386
If you want daily builds you should add the repository to synaptic (although I heard that this can be unstable). You can find discussion in Ubuntu Documentation here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion
I don't really want to fool around with daily builds, and am OK running 3.6 as my default browser until FF4 comes out with its final release. For now, I just extracted my tar.gz file with FileRoller and created a launcher for 4RC on my desktop. This launcher is linked with the ''firefox'' file found within the extracted folder. This isn't much of an answer, but I hope that these links help you get this great browser working on your machines.

Does anyone have a step-by-step on how to install fireFox 3.5.5

Greetings to All!,
I have a very limited knowledge working with Solaris. I need to install Firefox 3.5.5 so that I can use a GUI based FTP client. I have downloaded the program but I
don't know how to install it and I hate to break my system. Please help.
I'm running SunOS CyberJet 5.10 Generic_141445-09 i86pc i386 i86pc

From where did you download what you have? What format is it in? If you got it from Mozilla, it will be either in 'tar' or 'pkg' format.
See your system documentation on how to manage these formats.

How to install firefox on a windows 8.1 tablet

! have a new Dell venue 8 Pro tablet running Windows 8.1. How do I install firefox on it?

Save the installer to your desktop, then launch it.
* [[How to download and install Firefox on Windows]]
If the installation progress stalls, try the offline installer instead. Actually, if you don't have a copy of Firefox installed, best to just get the offline installer from the start.

How to install forms 6i runtime using windows Systems Management Server?

Hi,
Our clinents are using oracle forms 5 application and we want to upgrade to forms 6i ( client /server ).
How to install oracle forms 6i and reports 6i runtime in multiple client machines
using windows systems management server instead of installing one by one manually.

Here is a quick summary on why this works...
The Problem:
The issue relies with the method and logic that MDT’s scripts use to query and validate that the proper disks, partitions and storage space reside before starting the installation of Windows.
Essentially what you have configured in the Task Sequence and the UNATTEND.xml is analyzed by the MDT scripts then a validation is completed against the hardware in which you wish to install Windows
on and if there are any errors you will be prompted with MDT Error or Warning dialogs.
The problem is that the MDT scripts use WMI to query the hard disk, partition and free space requirements for Windows, but in the case of using GPT disk, the 2nd partition (MSR) that you have to create
is hidden. The class that WMI uses for its query can’t see the MSR partition so instead of 3 partitions, it returns 2 in the query results; hence why DISK 0 PARTITION 3 doesn’t work as mentioned earlier when configured in the MDT Task Sequence.
Although the above still confuses me as to why it works with DISK 0 PARTITION 2 since the WMI query results return PARTITION IDs 0 and 1 when it should return 1 and 2…
The Windows Pre-Installation Environment however does see all 3 partitions correctly and we tried configuring in our Task Sequence to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 2 and in the UNATTEND.xml
file to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 3 but due to timing issues of the way Windows installs with MDT, did this not work for us.

How to install Epson ICC profiles using Photoshop CC?

How to install Epson ICC profiles ussing Photoshop CC on Mac?

Danny,
Just stop and think for a moment. Firstly, it's not Rocket science to produce an icc profile, and does not involve the profile having to physically 'fit' into a pre-formed item such as the razor blade analogy you used.
Secondly, If the likes of Epson and HP did produce printer profiles for all makes of paper, can you imagine how much more product they would sell. Printer companies are currently missing out on substantial amounts of income at the moment because the cost of their inks is more expensive than gold! Thus, the third party ink manufacturers - although not producing an ink as good as the original - are earning large sums of money and once again this is income loss to the major printer manufactures. Can you imagine what would happen if certain vehicles would only run on a specific fuel? I don't mean Diesel or Petroleum, but different manufacturers, Shell, Texaco, Murco etc.
At the end of the day the only person who is adversely affected by this business model is us, the consumer.
I really don't think they need you to be standing up for them Danny.

I cant install firefox,i was using it before and when it try to update to the new version18.2,it didnt install,so i uninstall it & couldnt install it again

i am using Firefox as my primary browser and to a much little degree chrome, i have noticed that after i installed some programs like new acrobat, new Java update and Microsoft visual c +++ 2010 that first chrome is not playing videos anymore and the plug inn were disabled. in the same time a new auto update for Firefox failed to install, then i tried to uninstall fire fox and chrome and install them again but after successful uninstall i couldn't reinstall them again, when i click on the installation file just it doesn't give me anything after extracting....
ialso uninstalled all the program i mentioned before and try to install firefox but i failed
i am using windows 7 64bit

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
#Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
'''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
* '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
#Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
#In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
#Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
#* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
#* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
#Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
#Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
#Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

How to install firefox instead of explorer on a freash win xp install

I am rebuilding my win xp pro pc after a trojan horse killed it (it was ugly!). I want to avoid installing Internet Explorer at all and install Firefox as my only browser. How can I get a complete installation file so I can run it from a disc and get on the web without any other browser installed on my computer. I don't know if this is possible or not, but I hope it is. The only other computer that I have is a MAC portable and I can't get to Windows possibilities on the Firefox site. Any one got any help for me? thanks, Michael

Open this link in your File Explorer: http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.15/win32/en-US/ This is an FTP link and it doesn't require a web browser to work. Once you download the installer ''Firefox_Setup_3.6.15.exe'', you can launch it to install Firefox. See also [[Installing Firefox]] for more details.
