I am using Firefox but haven't unistalled IE8 , are these browers compatable and/or do I need unitstall IE8?

I hate IE8 and decided to use Firefox again, however I haven't uninstalled IE8 because I don't wanna lose it if I decide to go back at a future date. Does anyone know if IE8 and Firefox are compatible?
Can I get IE8 free if I decide to delete it? Will I lose any unsaved history or information ?

You don't need to uninstall IE8 to use Firefox, you can even use them at the same time if you wish.

  • I can not click certain tabs on my Etsy page & they will not open using Firefox, but I am able to open these tabs on Etsy when using Internet Explorer

    When I am signed onto Etsy, there are certain tabs on the top of the page that I can not click open when using firefox, but when I use Internet Explorer, I am able to click open these tabs. The following tabs on my etsy page will not open: Your Shop, Your Account, Help, & Sign Out
    Other tabs on the same page will let me click them open, such as:
    Buy, Sell, Community, Blog, Mobile, when using Firefox & Internet Explorer

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

  • I can log into hotmail using firefox, but I can't read any of my emails, and most of the links don't work either.

    I can't read any emails in my msn account. I'm using Firefox 4.0.1. Every time I click on one, it acts like it's reloading the page, but nothing happens. It happens when I click on links to my folders as well. It works fine in Google Chrome though. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I'm having the same issues, running Firefox 3.6.
    After downloading Windows Updates for Vista, Hotmail has stopped working.
    I can log on, but can't click on any messages.
    None of the buttons work at all in Hotmail; it's completely frozen.
    I have to log on using Internet Explorer.
    I had the same problems with Firefox 4.0; Norton 360 wouldn't work properly with it, so I deleted it, and went back to Firefox 3.6.

  • Used Firefox but the 4.0 won't run on my pre-intel mac so need download for version that I can run.

    I have always enjoyed running Firefox on my pre-intel mac OS 10.4 but the current upgrade I was forced to download did not launch. After trying it several times, I went to you website and manually downloaded the only version (4.0) I saw available which overwrote the one I had. But it won't run on this mac.
    Please tell me where I can download a version that will run on my mac.
    Thank you

    The Firefox 3.6.28 version that is offered on that page is the most recent Firefox version that runs on your PPC Mac with OS X 10.4

    It turns out that the problem had to do with network accounts, even though it was not clear at first.  Redirecting the program to the local machine's cache with a network home redirector script fixed the issue.  Thanks anyway.

  • I have a I-MAC and have used firefox, but lately it will not open from the dock, any suggestions?

    As stated above, have used Firefox from the dock for quite a long time, but recently it did not do anything when I clicked on it, just sat there. Have been able to get to it using spotlight, but even then have to go thru extra steps and go thru a step that says something like "this application was downloaded from the internet. Do you want to open it? YES/ NO " Any ideas ? Should I dump it and reinstall, and if so , how would I uninstall?

  • Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now.

    Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now. I have cleared the cache and cookies multiple times, updated flash player, did a virus and malware scan, allowed java script, allowed mozilla in the Windows firewall, contacted Zynga multiple times, and yet Farmville still will not load using Firefox, my main and preferred browser. I'm very frustrated and want this fixed.

    Thanks for the advice cor-el, but if you would read the info I posted, I already did that, SEVERAL TIMES. That's not the solution unfortunately.

  • Weebly Editor on Netfirms will not open using Firefox but does with Explorer

    I have been trying to open the Weebly Editor on Net firms using Firefox but it won't open it. Explorer opens it though. I talked to the techs at Net firms and they told me to dump my cache, make sure plugins are up to date etc. Still nothing. They say Firefox works fine on their site. When I click on edit website, it goes to the next page but just stays blank. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

    '''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.

    ''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.

  • Field on manual tabular appears using Firefox but does not appear using IE

    Hello,
    A field in a manual tabular form appears correctly using Firefox but does not appear or appears in another field when IE is used. Javascript is used to hide certain columns on the tabular form. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
    Thanks pany

    Prabodh,
    The select for the report and the javascript that is used to hide the columns are displayed below. The data for Apex_item.select_list_from_lov(12,null,'LOV_METHOD_OF_ACQ') is shown in the previous column, Date Acquired, and the column for Method Acquired is blank. It appears correctly in Firefox. Please let me know if this is sufficient.

  • I can't seem to copy & paste while I am using Firefox; but I can with Internet Explorer. What am I doing wrong? I guess I just don't understand how to do it.

    I am working in Ancestry.com. If I am in Internet Explorer, I can copy a picture & then paste it in my pictures, on my computer. If I am using Firefox, I don't understand which things to do to copy & then paste a picture, like I can in Internet Explorer. I prefer to use Firefox, but need to be able to use this copy & paste feature, often. I just downloaded Firefox, & started using it, again, yesterday. I just got a new computer in June.

    When you run out of keyboard short cuts, enter the addtional names in the name field in the keyword editor. That will start a new Keyword Collection. You can apply the addtional keywords to multiple cllips on the event browser. Or you can drag the clips into the Collection in the Event Library.

  • Can you and will you fix the "plug-in container" using so much memeory problem? I like using firefox, but if this keeps going on I am going to have to start using something like Chrome or going back to I/E.

    I use the latest version of Firefox, I run Windows XP on an older computer and the last two updates have included a "plug-in container" that use way too much memory when running a Flash based app. Can and will you be fixing this soon, I have "Googled" the problem and it seems pretty rampant, there are a lot of people having the problem and some who have left Firefox for Chrome, I enjoy using Firefox but if the problem continues I will have to find something else myself.

    Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.
