I am running firefox 5.0 on my mac OS X leopard powerbook G4. Is this the latest firefox?
what is the latest version of firefox I can run on my mac computer which is a powerbook G4 laptop with OS X leopard Operating system.
You can only run Firefox 3.6.x versions on a PowerPC Mac even with OS X 10.5.<br />
If you have a later Firefox 5 version then that must be a TenFourFox build for a G4 powerbook.
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

For an unofficial Firefox 9 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

* http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/ReleaseNotes90
* http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
Firefox 3.6.x (Mac OS X 10.4 and later) can be found here:

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*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 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.

The latest Firefox won't run with Mac OS 10.4.11. How can I get the previous version of Firefox?
I have Firefox 12.0. It won't run with Mac OS 10.4.11. I do not want to have to buy a new computer right now. I would like to go back to a previous version of Firefox that will run with my operating system. How can I download an older version of Firefox?
You can find the latest Firefox 3.6.x release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:

I am connected to the internet, but all tabs are closed. Now I want to open a new tab, But Firefox pops-up with "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system". Does anyone here know how to fix this? Thank´s, BL.

A few times a weekFirefox is shutting down windows I want to remain open. Example: I am done viewing one window. I click the X to shut the window and it shuts two windows. Every single time, attempt to close one windows, two windows close. Lately, I have been opening several windows with nothing but google search, just so it will shut that window and not something else I want to remain open. I could understand this if I was using tabs, but I am not. This has been going on for over two weeks. I don't like going back to history to open a window, I did not want closed in the first place. Isn't that what 'Windows' is all about? Any ideas?

I download the latest Firefox 3.6.15 last week, on my desktop. I am using Windows XP 2000 SP3.
When i open Windows Live Messenger and going to check if i had any mail but whey where nothing only written messages. All other messages with Attachment did not arrive from my friend.
I ask my friend if they send me any Attachment the all said yes but i did not receive any off them.Reply to Pat Wiellner,
Hi Pat,
Thanks for your instructions and used the http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315 to do a clean install. I received no error messages during the uninstall process. I then did a new install and even receive the message the install was successful, just before the last screen asking if I wanted to try a different Adobe product.
Trouble is when I go to www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome, I do not see the animation playing, just a small red X in the upper left hand corner of the box. I also get a pop up asking me if I want to install flashplayer. Very frustrating, since I was very careful to folly each step of the 928315 instructions. Should I try to install a previous version?
Here is the install log of the most recent install: https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=PJn*g5OAS31W4kP4jUgSCA
If you have the time I would appreciate your review of the log to see if it has the same errors as you noticed in the previous install log.
A second piece of information: I was using IE9 and having problems with an program and was told the program was not compatible with IE9, so I used the Microsoft "rollback " feature to go back to IE8 (which allowed the program to work). But, as part of my ttrouble shooting before this posting, I did a uninstall of IE8 and new install of IE8.
I will be glad to follow any trouble shooting suggestions.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks!! -
I just started started seeing this after the latest firefox release. I see it on M$Winblows at work, Linux and Mac at home, so it isn't activex related for me. I can't upgrade Flash for Linux since Adobe stopped supporting it, but I haven't had any issues up until the last week. And as far as Mac and Windows, they are up to date in patches. Once again engineers just love to make things better. If there was a better alternitive to Firefox I'd use it.
The outdated Flash plugins is not due to any Firefox version or updates but due to a blocklist of vulnerable Flash plugins made on Dec 11/12. The Firefox 31.3.0esr and 34 were released on December 1st and the updated Flash came out on Dec 9.
For Windows and Mac 16.0.0.235, 13.0.0.25'''9''' ESR and 15.0.0.24'''6''' are not vulnerable according to Adobe and are not on blocklist.
For Linux the Flash 11.2.202.42'''5''' is not vulnerable according to Adobe and is not on blocklist while 11.2.202.42'''4''' and older is. Adobe is still supporting the Flash 11.2 with security fixes.
Get choice of 16.0.0.235 or 13.0.0.25'''9''' ESR for Windows/Mac and the 11.2.202.42'''5''' for Linux at https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

The latest Firefox update, which I have installe on my macbook Os 10.68, seems full of bugs
I am so fed up with the latest version of firefox. It is incredibly slow, when I enter one url in the web bar it will send me bouncing off to a random address that is on my bookmards toolbar. Before the latest firefox update, I had already noticed it had become ridiculously slow. I read some support articles and it suggested uninstalling some add ons and reinstalling them. I did so, i even got rid of the ones I felt I no longer needed them. It fast slighter faster for maybe a day, then just as slow again. In the mean time, I installed google crome browser, b/c I have a blog with blogger, and there are just some things you can't do with blogger unless you're using Chrome. By accident, I discovered there were several things I could all of a sudden do online that I couldn't do with Firefox (reply to messages on a forum I post on, access a free menu planning feature on Canadian Living Magazine's website).
After their latest update, everything has gotten worse! That's when it got even slower, and started bouncing me around the web. I even cleared the cache, which was incredibly annoying since I had so many places all over the web that I had set to be automatically signed in to, and I spent an entire day having to recover all these passwords, and clearing the cache did nothing to fix the problem in any way. I will wait two days for a response from this forum. The only reason I haven't ditched Firefox completely is because of it's adblock feature. The adds on Chrome drive me nuts. If I have not received any suggestions that seem worth my time and energy, I'm uninstalling Firefox, and might consider returning to it when they come up with a new update.Well, that's pretty made my decision final. I'm ditching firefox for good. The only reason I was willing to use it at all, was because of Ad block. I already tried uninstalling, disabling add ons, like I mentioned previously. The whole proceeding with Firefox safe mode thing sounds like way too much trouble than it's worth. Since I already have Safari Browser, that came with my Macbook, and I need Chrome Browser for using Blogger, I'm uninstalling Firefox and I'll just use those two. Chrome Browser annoys me enough of the time that I don't want to use it as my primary browser. Safari is fairly good though, especially if I only use it occasionally, that means if runs very quickly. Thanks for the advice. It's too bad. When I started using Firefox about 4 years ago, I loved it. Now it drives me absolutely crazy. I'll just start gathering all my passwords that are stored in Firefox and then uninstall it.

On the opening page of Firefox, I am constantly reminded (and sometimes warned) that I do not have the latest version of Firefox. Yet, when I click for upgrade, I start getting a download of the same version 8.0.1 which I am already running.
This - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I don't think it is being maintained.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''about:home'''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same. -
get error message that skype has problem loading when computer is turned on the first time every day. this started when the latest firefox v6.0 was downloaded.

<blockquote>
It was working fine and I had no problems, and then one day I tried opening a window and it froze. When I tried quiting the program my whole window went black. The x to the close the window doesn't work. The only option I have in my tool bar is Firefox and nothing happens when I try to quit firefox. Every time I try to shut down my computer Firefox prevents it. I haven't updated Firefox yet, so it's an older program, but only by a month or two. What's going on and how do I fix it?

This is the first time it's ever happened. I downloaded the new operating system for Firefox but I can't install it until the Firefox currently running on my laptop quits, which it won't. -
As in #1000240 and in #1032181, I've installed a StartSSL login certificate in my Firefox for Android and having a problem with extracting/backuping it to use with another device/browser.
I'm using the latest Firefox Beta for Android (35.0) at present; the Android version is 4.1.2, my phone model is Sony LT26i (Xperia S), so neither of the aforementioned questions asked at the Mozilla Support website do not contain any solution to the given problem.
Any chance to recover the certificate?
P. S. I haven't rooted my device; if getting a root is the only possible way to recover the certificate, I may consider doing so.You can try https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/copy-profile/ If that does not retrieve the file then see below.
If you know the name and path of the file you can get it using run-as function of adb. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18471780/android-adb-retrieve-database-using-run-as
If you end up down here you'll need root to be able to navigate the file system. I don't know the file name, though it is likely in your profile folder which can be determined by visiting about:cache in the Firefox address bar. It will be similar to /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox_beta/files/mozilla/$RANDOM.default/ -
I have a desktop Mac OS 10.2.8, which is the latest Firefox to download?
I have a desktop Mac OS 10.2.8, which is the latest Firefox to download? It's Jaguar, the latest I can load on my Mac. I only use it to get/send Yahoo mail. What is the latest version I can use, and where can I get it. Right now am running Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you. I am not looking for the update for my windows PCs.
As of Firefox 3.0, 3.5, 3.6 the minimum for Mac OSX was changed to OSX 10.'''4'''. Then as of Firefox 4.0 the minimum was OSX 10.5. Then as of Firefox 16.0 the minimum has been OSX 10.6+ since. This is for Intel as PPC support was dropped as of Firefox 4.0

I downloaded the auto-fill app for firefox (latest version) and have the latest firefox version, yet none of the autofill works whenever i do it once.
i've even restarted firefox, shut down my iMac for a while, started firefox up again, nothing.
i do A LOT of repetitive data entry and this is getting frustrating for me to work from home.
help, please! *thanks in advance!*We apologize that you are experiencing issues with some Firefox feature.
When typing in a text field, does is drop-down list appear when typing?
If not, please '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you. -
I downloaded Firefox 6 and restarted computer, but the message under the search window says I don't have the latest Firefox. I tried twice. Thank you.
I have a similar problem; but I think the cause of the "already running" message is that my computer crashed.
I rebooted before I learned to look for the parent lock file, but even when I knew to look for it, I found my original profile folder to be empty.
So I created another profile folder, and FF works, but I cannot access my old profile folder. When I open the location where it should be, nothing's there. But if I go to profile manager, I see my original profile is still there (and it has a location, it's where it should be - and where it's invisible, but even if I type in this location, nothing comes up).
I tried making all folders visible (I run Windows 7), but this did not make my old profile visible.
I want to find it because of the bookmarks I bookmarked recently.
