Most systems will have an FTP client available that lets you download files without a working browser. Go to a command console and type ftp releases.mozilla.org Enter This should reply with something like<code>Connected to releases.geo.mozilla.com.
220 Welcome to mozilla.cs.utah.edu
Name (releases.mozilla.org:rob):
</code>Type ftp Enter then enter anything when prompted for a password - it's normal to use your email address. You should now see the FTP prompt<code>ftp></code>Type cd /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases Enter
Type dir Enter This will list the releases available for download.<code>150 Here comes the directory listing.

  • I have a powermac G5 running 10.5.8 I kept getting a screen that told me to upgrade, which I did, then was told it was not compatible and now I have nothing. How do I get Firefox I can use back?

    I have a powermac G5 running 10.5.8 I kept getting a screen that told me to upgrade, which I did, then was told it was not compatible and now I have nothing.
    How can I get back to my old system or download one that will work.'''bold text'''

    Firefox 4+ versions don't support the old Power PC architecture.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • Firefox pulls up a cached version of my homepage (a cyclone warning/tracking page) showing me old information. Now I have surprise damage from a storm I should have known about, how do I get it to not cache this page?

    I set my homepage to the Navy Research Labs tropical cyclone warning page so I can be sure to see developing storms every time I start my browser, but now it simply caches a version of the page. The cached page that shows old information, defeating my purpose. How can I get firefox not to display a the cached version of this page by default? (Yes, obviously I already know I can refresh the page each time. That is NOT my question)

    If you leave tabs open to have them displayed automatically on the next start then you need to clear the browser cache when you close Firefox to prevent showing a cached version.

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == 2 weeks ago ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.5)

    If you have a separate FTP client, you could use that (link: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.3/win32/en-US/ )
    If you have email on the machine, have a friend email you the installer file.
    Else you'd have to use an external storage device (USB drive, external hard disk or some such).

  • How did CoolChaser get on my browser & how do I get rid of it?

    How did CoolChaser get on my browser & how do I get rid of it?
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == a couple of weeks ago

    While searching for an answer to this problem, which I am also having, I realized coolchaser might be attached to my "Gamers Unite" toolbar I have installed for FarmVille on facebook. No idea why it occasionally pops up in my browser though. Might have been one of those 'automatically installed' programs that came with the toolbar.

  • How can I get Firefox 6.0 to STOP being my default browser?

    I need to used Internet Explorer as my default browser for work applications. But since upgrading to Firefox 6.0 this morning, it insists on opening all my work applications when I click on them. I've tried going into Internet Explorer and telling it to check that it is the default browser but that does not seem to have any effect.
    How do I get Firefox to relinquish its hold my work applications? Is uninstalling Firefox my only solution?

    Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
    Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

    How do I get firefox 4.0.1 to open in separate windows instead of tabbed browsing? Thanks!

    (If you have the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key or press F10 to display the classic menu bar.)
    Tools > Options > Tabs
    Uncheck the first checkbox.
    Hopefully that's all you need, but if it doesn't work, let us know.

    If the purchases are all from the same account then you can share the content by authorizing each device.
    If you have separate accounts then you have to be authorized to use the content purchased from another account.

  • How can I get firefox to show everything from left to right, without a curser that I have to move, in win-xp?

    It used to be ok. I had a firexox teeshirt from way far back, firefox 1.0. Then i had a hemorrhagic stroke, about 3 years ago. Now i'm back, in a new place, for two months now.
    (I use my left hand now...) and once again, i have a desktop, with win-xp (and five internal harddrives, and a 600w ps.) Anyway, for the first time with my new desktop, there is a cursor in the bottom of firefox, and it doesn't show everything, left to right unless i move it.
    I've been out of commission, with only a laptop, with win-7-64bit edition, that i got just 7 months before my stroke. My sister threw away all of my desktops...many of which i built. The doctor said i may die...so my sister didn't even wait, but threw away my CLOTHES AND BOOKS AND COMPUTERS (except for the laptop), but she saved most of my harddrives...i guess i taught her how to save harddrives.
    Anyway, it's been three years, since i've had no 32bit computer with win-xp, and i can't figure out how to make things go back to the way i'm used to. HELP! I was in your forums, when my e-mail was [email protected], which it will be again , soon. But for how, how do i get firefox to show all, left to right, without a bottom cursor? i know it's possible. (And while i'm asking questions, how can i, tony mendola, get another firefox 1.0 tee shirt? i would even pay for it, even though i'm on social security-disability, with only one hand working..and no work. I used to wear it, proudly when fixing computers for others.)

    Hi manni394, what version of Firefox are you running now?
    Firefox 22 has a new way of setting the default zoom level: it is based on your Windows font size setting. So, if you set Windows fonts to 125% (enlarged 25%), your Firefox pages also will be enlarged 25%. On pages that do not adjust their layout, you may get a horizontal scroll bar.
    To reduce the zoom on a page, hold Ctrl and tap the - key (the one on the numeric keypad or the one on the number row of the keyboard). The zoom should be reduced for each tap.
    If you want to globally adjust your zoom level to be lower, you can use either of these add-ons:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint]
    If you already have one of those add-ons, check the default/global zoom level in case it needs to be adjusted.

    I've lost mine, too. However, I've found that they're all there if I go in via the phone. The contacts app just shows "no contacts". When searching from other apps (such as Reminders), it doesn't find anything, but spotlight finds them.
