Hi bluefleetwood, the options on this site are Mozilla's current support options for Firefox.
Try the addons site again in case it was a temporary problem, or if it's an SSL certificate problem, please indicate what the page says about the certificate.
You have a serif font for most of your Firefox UI. Can you let us know what font that is? Most likely it was selected in your Windows display settings (right-click Desktop, then Properties) and appears on many of your applications. It appears to be the same one for Menu text and Message Box text.

  • How do I get back my older version of Firefox? The new version sux.

    I loved the older version of Firefox. I also had a Yahoo toolbar, a MyYearbook tool bar and a Stumble Upon extension. When I "upgraded" to the new 4.0 Beta version, all of those disappeared.
    I got a notice that said the new version of Firefox is not compatible.
    If it's not compatible, then I don't want it, but I seem to be stuck with it. How do I get my older version back again??

    If you resaved the file and changed its name it is wherever you saved it to.
    If you changed the name of the open file then that is your only copy.
    You can go back to previous versions by various methods. In Pages 5 it is:
    Menu > File > Revert

  • Firefox 4 could not be made to show bookmarks on Vista 64bit. I used system restore to get back to older version. Now Firefox won't open at all even after undoing system restore

    I use Vista 64 bit. Was fine with older Version of Firefox (3.6, I believe). Upgraded to Ver. 4. Couldn't access extensive bookmarks file or bookmarks toolbar. Tried all the Firefox help recs and they didn't work. Clicking the top button would give list of toolbars but when I tried to move to bookmarks toolbar the menu changed. Tried going thru tools and options and that didn't work. So decided to use System Restore to get old Firefox version back. Icons remained but program wouldn't open. Tried many ways, including start menu. Old version is still on program control file but only option is to uninstall. So went back to System Restore to get Vers. 4 back and it's not there. What to do?? I can use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer but I want all my 100's of bookmarks back. Thank you.

  • My Yahoo toolbar is gone requiring me to press the back button thru all of the pages I've viewed to get back to my homepage. AND more importantly I can no longer use Kodak Gallery. How do I return to an older version of Firefox?

    The recent version of Firefox apparently does not support/permit me to see/use the Yahoo toolbar. Therefore, I have to manually page back thru all of the yahoo pages I've visited to get back to the main page.
    Also the recent version of Firefox apparently is not compatible with Kodak Gallery's functions; therefore use of my many photo albums stored online is no longer available.
    Apparently I need to go back to an older version of Firefox or use another browser.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • How do I get and install an older version of Firefox to run on my Mac 10.4.11?? I mistakenly installed a new version that overrode my older version which isn't suitable for my Mac.

    We get a message that says "You cannot use the application 'Firefox.app' with this version of Mac OS X.
    How do I reinstall an older version of Firefox that works on our Mac??

    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 />

  • When I tried to download the new version of firefox I get an error message that says "you computer must be restarted to complete an earlier upgrade" when I restart it says the same thing. I cannot use firefox at all at the moment.

    When I tried to download the new version of firefox I get an error message that says "your computer must be restarted to complete an earlier upgrade" when I restart it says the same thing. I cannot use firefox at all at the moment. When I try to uninstall in the control panel, the same message pops up.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • I am trying to update an ipod version 2.2 with itunes but I keep getting an error (-1).  Is this an hardware issue according to Apple and if so is there any way to fix this.?

    I am trying to update an ipod version 2.2 with itunes but I keep getting an error (-1).  Is this an hardware issue according to Apple and if so is there any way to fix this.?

    Error 1 or -1
    This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    If you disabled yuor computer's security software then that indicates a hardware problem,
    I would say it is not workth fixint your old. likely a 1G. iPOd.

  • Is there any way I can get back an older version of Pages, the Version 5.0 is useless to me

    I feel really dumb as I do not have a backup of the older versions and I thought, that Apple might only add some bug fixes or style changes to the new versions, but the way it functions right now makes it useless to me... No I would like to know If I can get back the older version somehow.
    Thanks in advance

    You can have the iWork '09 apps be the default but still have the new apps installed. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "other applications." I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder. I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3.

  • What can I do about suddenly getting certain foreign language pages etc.?

    A few days ago I suddenly started getting Yahoo's Netherlands' home page, whenever I went to check my e-mail. I had to click on the US tab to the back of the Netherlands' one, to even try to get on the US page. Then when I tried to sign in, the page made me answer a bunch of security questions, because it said I was trying to sign on from an "unrecognized device", even though I was using my computer like I always do. That happened again & again, then last night I could go right to the US page, by typing the URL or using a bookmark, but I still got ads down the sides etc. of the e-mail page, in a foreign language.
    Well now today I suddenly noticed on my AOL e-mail page, I'm getting foreign language ads too!! And just a few minutes ago I got the Yahoo Netherlands' home page again!!
    I e-mailed Yahoo about the problem a few days ago, but got no response, not even an automated one.
    All other sites seem to be OK. I tried a link given to me by someone in a Delphi Forums group, for help if Google loads in a foreign language, but it doesn't for me, & I don't get any foreign ads when I'm in gmail.
    Whatever the problem is, it's getting worse. And I really need to know how to fix it, before it starts affecting other pages/sites, & I'm not able to get on any I can understand. Please help!!

    Hello,
    I loaded Firefox again, but that still didn't change anything. I went into my profile the same day, through a link on the trouble-shooting page, but there was nothing there except my user name!! I tried it again with the link you provided, but that screen said to close out Firefox entirely, & just use Windows. Well, that didn't work as the screen described it would, & so I couldn't do that either.
    Yesterday I contacted a fellow I know who owns a programming, repair, etc. business, in another part of my state. He sent me a link for a mega spyware program. It found a Trojan etc., but cleaning those off my computer didn't help. He also told me the same as you all did, to load a "clean" copy of Firefox. I did that again just this morning, but nothing has changed. Since as I said, I can't seem to do anything with any sort of profile, I don't know what in the world to try now!! The guy told me yesterday also, that if loading Firefox again didn't help, that I might have what I think he called a "host error/problem", & he said those are quite difficult to fix.
    So, thanks for all your efforts. Unless anybody else here has some ideas, I guess I'm stuck with the problem, & with a computer I don't "trust", even with the new mega spyware etc. program I loaded yesterday!

  • I get this error code when trying to update from an older version of Firefox: The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items.

    While trying to upgrade from a previous version of Firefox, I get this error code: "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items."

    I resolved the problem in Snow Leopard by logging out of my (admin) account and logging into my daughter's account on the same machine. She doesn't have admin privileges, so when I tried to install Firefox 4 in her account, I had to authenticate with my admin identity and PW. Installation went smoothly after that. My guess is that you could also simply create a new account on the same machine and install Firefox 4 from that. I have no idea why this works.

  • I have a G5 Power Mac with dual 1.8 processors. I recently upgraded the software fro 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 in order to get an iPad 2. Now my Adobe Photoshop 7 won't work any longer. All the newer Phtoshop versions only work with Intell processors. Does anyone

    ..know of an older Photoshop version that will work with my processors and system 10.5.8?
    Thanks,

    I believe I had this issue with PS7 when I first upgraded from OS 9 to OS X 10.2 Jaguar.
    Couldn't get PS 7 to launch at all.
    I ended up having to update all of my Adobe apps to the CS edition to be sure every Adobe app functioned without a hitch.
    I am not sure where you'll find older versions of Adobe software, though.
    You could try and contact Adobe direct to see if they have any older versions on disc left in stock or not.
    Short or that I  really do not know.
    PS CS 4 was the last universal version that works with PPC Macs.
    Pixelmator used to be available for 10.5 Leopard, but it's no longer available for PPC Macs, either.
    http://www.pixelmator.com/
    Could contact them to see if they have the older version still available on disc or as a download.
    This is a pay app, also.
    Another pay app that may work for you is Graphic Converter.
    http://www.lemkesoft.com/
    The other options are the ones already mentioned in the previous reply.
    Other than Pixelmator, the other offerings are quite limited compared to PS.
    Here's the link to Seashore.

    A free open source Unix replacement for PS is The Gimp

    You need to install X11 in order to use this app.
    If you installed 10.5, you'll need to check your Applications folder to see if X11 was installed by default.
    If not you'll need to go back to your OS X 10.5 install discs and do a custom install and just install X11 from disc.
    This will just add the additional program and extensions and will not erase your installation of OS X 10.5.
