I need to download firefox 9.0 becuase a toolbar I use is not compatible with 10.0. Where can I download the previous version? Thanks
I went to check my version information by selecting about under the help menu. Firefox started downloading the update and prompted me when it finished. I ok'd it, not realizing it would update to 10.0. A toolbar that I use is not compatible with the new version so I need to download the previous version. Can anyone tell me how to find 9.0. Thanks
To keep your computer and files safe, you should not go back to Firefox 9. Firefox 10 contains security fixes. You may be able to make your toolbar work by using the add-on compatibility reporter as described in this article [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox]].
If you really must go back to Firefox 9, you can find it here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/9.0.1/win32/

Hi I use CA Internet Security Suite which checks ALL pages and searches, but it does not work with this version, also I wish to use Goggle Toolbar which ALSO does not work with this version where can I get the previous version? As my harddrive crashed I have had to install windows 7 and this version doesn't seem to allow me to change my homepage, why is this? Cheers Ernest
You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com -
Notification for an update appeared, I proceeded with the update, attempted to start up the new version and was told it is not compatible with mac os 10.4, the version I am currently using. How can I get the former version of firefox back so that I can continue using this application?

FireFox 3.6.13 crashes every time I try to use it. Where can I get the previous version?
3.6.13 folds like a cheap umbrella. The browser opens and allows me to see the first screen. However, if I try to go to a website or do anything other than view the first screen, it closes and gives an option to restart and send a message of the errror to Mozilla world. It is soooo disappointing. The version that I had before this one worked just fine. I have gone to IE to write this note. The FireFox will not browse to the Firefox support links without folding. What a disappointment. How can I dump this useless release and roll back to the previous version?
You may well find this article of interest and help in sorting out your problems: [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] The article does contain a link for previous versions, but also points out other troubleshooting advice that may be more appropriate in some instances.
Another useful article is [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
I hope you sort out your problems either by downgrading or finding the cause of the problem. -

You're better off with almost anything accept ZA and Kaspersky, they both are absolutely the worst security vendors at keeping up with Firefox updates this past year - each has had at least one Firefox add-on being many weeks or months behind Firefox's release schedule. It's almost like they don't know about the Firefox 18 week development process and they wait until their Firefox users complain about their crap not working with a newly released version of Firefox before they even think about doing their updates. IMO, the smart thing to do is to test the Nightly channel version (first 6 week alpha stage) for compatibility issues once a week to see what problems might exist with their software, and once the new version hits the Aurora channel (2nd 6 week alpha stage) start formulating a plan, schedule for what they need to be fixed and start fixing their stuff, while stepping up testing a bit. Once the new version hits the 6 week Beta channel they should be completing their fixes and expanding their testing to include combination's of the most popular add-ons being used by Firefox users so they can see any problems their users might run into and fix what needs to be fixed before the release of the new Firefox version.
One other thing that these security vendors could do is to have some of their customers do their Beta testing to find the faults and weak spots in their stuff, much like open source organizations like Mozilla does with Firefox. While I'm not a computer software professional, I have 3 different Nightly versions installed that I "test" a bit almost everyday for the simpler stuff, and the Aurora version, along with the Beta version. Over that last 6 or 7 years I have found 3 or4 pretty severe faults that I filed Bug reports about, one of which resulted in the developers providing a much sterner warning message about the risk of data loss and the other Bug reports helped the developers by making them aware of a potential problem early enough in the development that is wasn't hard to avoid the issue I pointed out to them with some minor coding changes.
Free or paid version, if these security companies are going to create and distribute a Firefox add-on the right thing to do is to keep it up to date with Firefox, or they should just discontinue the add-on and quit jerking us around with their irresponsibility and lackadaisical attitude toward Firefox. I honestly miss the "good old days" when these security companies ignored Firefox and only supported Internet Explorer.
I use Avira Personal Free - http://www.free-av.com/ - which doesn't feel the need to build add-ons for Firefox that really don't add anything to Firefox and only provide a "bells & whistles"version of something that is already built into Firefox. Good solid anti-virus protection that is updated twice daily. -
Just installed Firefox 5.0 yesterday. No problems till now.
Came in for the day. Had last used Firefox about 3 hours earlier without incident. Tried to open, but message said it was already open so I should restart it, or failing at that, restart my system. After rebooting, I get this eror message when I try to open Firefox.
"Platform '5.0' not compatible with minversion>=2.01 maxversion<=2.01"The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />
You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
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 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox 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. -
Had to uninstall Firefox as it stopped working. The went to website and downloaded Firefox once more. Pressed the .exe and the file went through the installation okay, but when I tried to open Firefox I get:
Error: platform version5.0 is not compatible with
minVersion > = 6.0
maxVersion < = 6.0
The only option i have is to press OK and nothing else happens.
Can you offer any help - it is beyond me and I am missing Firfox and have lost all my bookmarks.The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />

'Remote' app requirements are stated as "software version 3.1.3 or later". I am running 4.2.1 and when I try to download it says 4.3 required.
OK, I understand that new versions make use of facilities that come with new versions of IOS, but there is/was a version that runs on 3.1.3 and therefore, I assume 4.2.1. Where can I get the (old) version that runs on my IOS?
The app store seems to ignore all legacy equipment owners, and want me to spend loadsa money to get the latest shiny toy. It probably makes business sense, but I dislike companies that take that approach. This is my first venture into smart phones, and I like the IOS interface, but I'm not sure I can afford the maintenance.The app store seems to ignore all legacy equipment owners, and want me to spend loadsa money to get the latest shiny toy. It probably makes business sense, but I dislike companies that take that approach.
This is standard for Apple. While there is little official mention of the software support lifespan for equipment, typical support has been about 4-5 years for computers. It strikes me that newer items, especially mobile devices, are not built as sturdily nor do they have the hardware upgrade capabilities required to keep up with newer systems. When we bought an iPhone 4S we were told by the person in the store we'd probably be looking at a newer model in two years. The iPhone 3G could be anywhere from 2 to 4 years old, putting it well into.
As for app availability, Apple typically pulls old software versions from its site when new versions appear. If it is a non-Apple app then I guess it is up to the vendor. It is indeed tiresome but it is not at all unusual. Since I only ever run used Macs, I download current versions even though my computer won't run them, stick them on a hard drive, then I have them when I upgrade to a newer used computer. If you run older equipment you have to learn a different mode of operation to exist with the Apple 'new and innovative' but 'forget about the old' philosophy. -

compatible with mozilla 8 or 9.,what version do i need to download of mozilla edit
You could use firefox 3.6, which is old but still supported and secure. However the best solution is to give up on using Google Toolbar because Google no longer support it with firefox, mainly because it has little to offer.
You can still save google bookmarks by copying them into Firefox. Please have a look at
* [[google Toolbar is not compatible with Firefox]] <-- clickable link -- <br> which may help with some ideas and proposed solutions.
I am hoping the Norton report you refer to merely says your system has vulnerabilities, rather than that it has an actual infection (or that it has dealt with or quarantined any malware). -
My problem is that I can't find the latest version number in here http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/win32 as a document, so I can check against "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox\CurrentVersion" and update or not, all this is done by a script. It will be great not have to change the versión number in the script every time there is a new release.
ThanksI think I solved, all I have to do is this:
//here I download the entire page
wget.exe http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html -O index
//here I search for the word curVersion and set a variable with the result, which is "10.0.2"
for /f "tokens=3 delims=</> " %%A IN ('type index ^| FIND /I "curVersion" ' ) do set latestversion=%%A
//here I just make sure I get a number
echo "%latestversion%"
pause
Later I check it against the registry and voila! I hope this can help other admins who have the same problem.

Upgraded old Mac mini (from 10.4 to 10.6) PowerPC G4 Processor, downloaded latest version of Firefox and ran installer, got a dialogue box that said 'not compatible with this architecture', now I don't have Firefox at all, and it is my preferred browser.
Firefox '''4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' and require at least OS X 10.5 and an '''Intel Mac'''.
The''' latest supported version for your os is 3.6.26''' , you can download it from:

I have an iMac OS version 10.4. Mozilla automatically upgraded me to the new version of Firefox EVEN THOUGH the computer should have "told" it that it wasn't compatible. I'm getting that message when I try to download Firefox from the web site today. (I've had to do that before when one of the ever-so-helpful reinstalls crashed and burned repeatedly) So, now all I get is crash reporter when I try to use Firefox.
Where do I go to download and reinstall the previous version AND also PREVENT Mozilla from being ever so helpful in the future?
Major glitch in the Mozilla process if you force users to "upgrade" and then it's broken. It's not an upgrade if you create problems for the user. That's very, very poor planning and service.
I'll be writing more about this in a blog post at www.maryschmidt.com.Is this the HP Simplepass application? If it is EgisTec, who now provide the HP Simplepass application, have made an update of the scanner software for Firefox 4, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/questions/814397
