I have a PowerPC G4. Firefox 5 for Yahoo says that I meet the requirements. But I cannot open the Firefox.app on my computer. Why not? Thanks

I was able to download Firefox 5. When I transferred it to my applications folder, it states that I cannot open, because my architecture doesn't support it. Why doesn't it state that when I looked up the minimum requirements? According to that, I should be able to use it.

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor; your system is a PPC Mac.
*System Requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 4], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 5], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 6], [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/7.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 7]
The good news is that Firefox 3.6.23 still supports the PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

*System requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 3.6.x]
You can try the third-party product '''''TenFourFox''''' that supports PPC Macs. The product is based on Firefox released versions. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:

  • Would there be any reason for logs to show up in the activity terminal while a computer is not in use?

    I have an activity log on my mac from Dec. 7th, at 12:48pm-12:49pm...no one was anywhere near the mac at the time, as we were all downstairs having tea with family. Is it possible for the log to happen without anyone accessing the computer? it was the admin account only...the other two accounts show nothing on the log. The other thing of concern, is that this popped up with it: device_generate_desktop_screenshot.
    Is something taking screenshots of my mac? I would paste the full code, but I freaked myself out already, so the mac is off for the night and the wifi is turned off on the mac, as well. Last thing, is that my fully charged mac was so dead it wouldn't boot on Sunday evening, and I hadn't touched it since Friday...is that related?
    thanks.

    But when I do this, none of the express units show up in the utility anymore.  Should I just take it as a blessing that it seems to be working, and not mess with it?
    Did you power cycle the entire network to get things in proper sequence?
    If not, power off everything....all devices....order is not important
    Wait a few minutes
    Power up the modem first and let it run a moment or two
    Power up the Time Capsule the same way
    Power up the powerline devices
    Power up each Express one at a time
    Power up other devices one at at time
    What should the internet setting be on the time capsule and airport expresses.
    The setting on the Time Capsule will depend on the type of modem that you have connected. It sounds like the "Share a public IP address" would be correct for the Time Capsule. Everything else must be in "Bridge Mode"
    Each of the AirPort Express devices must be configured to "Create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, security setting and password as the Time Capsule network. Set the Channels as "Automatic" and double check as the last configuration step to make sure that they are set for Bridge Mode.
    Then restart the entire network as outlined above and you are in business.
    The Express devices should definitely show up in AirPort Utility when you have everything set up.

  • I have an ipod touch which i am trying to authorize to napster by rhapsody but it cannot find a device!  any help. it does not show in my computer but it works fine in itunes.

    any help on this would be appreciated.
    we think that is is because the system (xp) is not seeing the ipod in the my computer therefore the napster software has nothing to lach on to.!

    Does it say that it works with iOS devices (iPhone, iPod touch or iPhone)? iOS devices have a different format/file system than other iPods.

    I am saying that this is not a feature of a legit iphone.
    Have you hacked your iphone?
    There are some apps that allow this between iphones/ipods.

  • I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 that all share the same iTunes account (apps, music, etc), but I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps?

    I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps? This is probably a common problem with families wanting to share apps and music without realizing the issues created by this approach. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates. The problem would be how to keep all the apps, etc from being deleted off the second and third phones that were originally loaded from the one iTunes acct. Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, someone out there can help me??  Please?

  • IPhone question:  Im trying to update applications on my iphone.  When I do it I'm as for password from a different Apple ID from what I have in Itunes.  How do I change so that both are the same?

    IPhone question:  Im trying to update applications on my iphone.  When I do it I'm as for password from a different Apple ID from what I have in Itunes.  How do I change so that both are the same?

    All apps are tied to the apple id that it was used to purchase or download the app.
    did you use a different id to buy the app?
    you can change id, settings - appstore - apple id - log out and log in with correct id.

    Your redemption code was used to acquire an activation code.  The activation code is what you need to use when you want to reinstall/enable the software again.  Check your Adobe account online to see if the number(s) can be found there.

  • Have base station and added extender for downstairrs. Worked great upon initial setup, but now it won't connect despite an "excellent" signal. What's wrong? Thanks!!

    Have base station and added extender for downstairs. Worked great upon initial setup, but now it won't connect despite an "excellent" signal. All i get is a blinking amber light; only get green if I bring it into the same room as the base. Both units are the latest models; purchased 2 months ago. What's wrong? Thanks!!

    Power off both the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express
    Wait a minute
    Power up the AirPort Extreme and let it run for a few minutes
    Now locate the AirPort Express about half way between the AirPort Extreme and the general area where you need more wireless signal coverage, and report on your results.
    The more that you can minimize obstructions between the AirPorts like walls, ceilings, etc. the better the wireless will operate.

    I have a ipod from a friend for a replacement. I cracked the screen after still using it I lost total power to turn it back on.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
