I want my old version of Firefox. I hate this one. How to do that

When I complained all you did was show me several other people who complained. No solution was given. Please tell me how I can get out of this horrible version of Firefox and return to the old version of Firefox. I would appreciate an answer.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

Question
Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

Norton has had over 5 months to work in their Firefox extensions, since the API's were locked for 4.0. Ask Norton why they pull this crap every time Mozilla releases a new version of Firefox. When Firefox 3.6 was released mid-January 2010, it took Norton until almost April to come up with a working version of their Firefox extensions.

I want the old version of Firefox!

I can't figure how to copy part of an e-mail without that menu you had.
I want the previous version of Firefox!

select then use Ctrl+C
Anyway the changes to toolbars are cosmetic, you can customize firefox and fix it for yourself.
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

The old version of firefox had print preview option - how can i do this in the latest firefox update?

My old version of firefox had a little red firefox tab (top, left) with a pulldown menu offering print option,
then a secondary menu offering print preview option. How can I access the print preview function in
the latest version of firefox?

When you use the new "3-bar" menu button, where you see the Print icon, that actually opens Print Preview. You can use Customize to move that to the main toolbar if you like.
I created a map showing where the old menu items moved in the new menu. maybe it will be useful? http://www.jeffersonscher.com/res/menu/comp.php

I can't replace an old version of Firefox with a new one that I just downloaded. It says I don't have permissions to do so, and the old version can't trashed.

I've downloaded the new version, and when I go to drag the Firefox icon into the Applications folder, I'm prompted to replace the old version. When I do, it says, "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to modify 'Firefox'." I've looked everywhere, and every help forum says to just drag Firefox into the Trash. I've tried that, and it says that Firefox can't be trashed. I don't know if this means anything or not, but there is a small lock in the bottom left of the Firefox icon in my dock.

Try to drag the current Firefox application to the trash if you can't replace it.

Just on website via Firefox - window opens & tells me I'm using old version of Firefox & should dwnlod nu one. Legitimate or not? ono

I was just on a genealogy website accessed via Firefox when a pop up window appeared and informed me that I was using an out dated version of Firefox and that I should click here to download a new one.
Is this a genuine request or a scam of some sort?

If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins or scanning for malware then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
*Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
*Plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.
Note that the current Firefox release is Firefox 36.0.4, see Help > About
You can find the full version of the current Firefox 36.0.4 release in all languages and for all operating systems here:

I used to be able to upload pictures to my photobucket account, that no longer works, can I go back to the old version of Firefox, or will this be fixed?

the add on is still available on photobucket, but not for 4.0, it means having to download, then upload, will the feature be redone so that it works with the new version?

Hello, the Photobucket plugin was not developed by Mozilla, the creator of the plugin is mattyk++ as you can see here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/photobucket-uploader/
He needs to update the plugin in order to work with Firefox 4.0

I had the old version of Firefox, but when offered to download the new version of Firefox, I did so. After the download and the old version being gone, my system informs me that my computer is too old to support the new Firefox. Now I have no Firefox.

I just want the old version of Firefox back.

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
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

I want to restore my old version of firefox and my security that was disabled as well as all my plugins, add ons, and so forth. How do I do that?

I want to restore my old version of firefox. I also want to restore my security that was disabled and all my plugin and add ons. How do I return to where I was?

The only fully supported and updated versions of Firefox are 3.6.22 and 6.0.2. All other versions contain security of stability errors that have not and will not be corrected.
'''''"...my security that was disabled..."'''''
Any toolbar that your security application installs into Firefox may have been disabled because the developer has not updated their toolbar.
*The functioning of your security application should not be affected, just the toolbar.
*You can try updating your security product as some security application developers have recently released updates of their products that are Firefox 6 compatible.
*You can visit and/or post on your security application developer's forum to see if they can make suggestions for you or let you know about their plans to update for Firefox 6 compatibility and to confirm that your security application is still fully functional, just the toolbar is disabled.
Firefox has a built-in function that provides one of the major functions of most security application toolbars. '''''Safe Browsing''''', the built-in Firefox component, will warn you when you try to go to a known Malware or Phishing site:

'''''"...all my plugins, add ons, and so forth..."'''''
I can see many plugins that were not disabled; click "More system details" to the right of your original post.
If any extension(s) other than Java Console (see below) were disabled, please reply with a list of the disabled Extensions and/or Plugins (Add-ons > Extensions and Add-ons > Plugins).
'''Java Console''' 
Unless you do Java programming/development or debug Java applets on web pages, you do not need Java Console. Java update will install a new Java Console with each update. Removing the Java Console extensions has no effect on the functioning of Java for web browsing. You can see, '''''but not remove''''', the Java Console extensions in Add-ons > Extensions. Java Console extensions can be safely removed '''''manually''''' by following the instructions in this article:

When I am using Facebook, all of a sudden with Firefox 4, everything is SO slow. This has happened before. I want the old version back.

Ever since I switched to Firefox 4, everything is slowing down! I hate this version. I want the old version back. I went to Facebook, it took so long to be able to do anything that I just gave up. This NEVER happened with the old version. I just want to get the old version back. I DO NOT LIKE this new version. Same kinds of problems I had once before when I tried it.

I installed Firefox 4.0 and now my LastPass form filler doesn't work. How do I reinstall the old version of firefox?

I want to go back to the old versions of Firefox where everything worked. I fill in a lot of online forms and need my LastPass form filler to work. I regret that I downloaded the new version today.

Download the latest version of LastPass here: https://lastpass.com/misc_download.php It works with Firefox 4...

Did bug fix for add-ons after downloading new version. FB games do not work & add-ons still gone. I want the old version back. How can I do this?

Downloaded version 7 today. All add-ons are gone, not disabled, but gone. The bug fix offered in this instance tells me to go look for updates. I have, and I'm totally up to date, so now I don't know what to do. The add-ons are still gone, and my games in FB are also malfunctioning. I click on a button in the game and nothing happens. I can't even play them like this. I have playing all morning, and this only happened AFTER I updated to the latest Firefox browser 7. I want the old version back, but cannot figure out a way to do this. I am mad right now and want the option to go back to the old version. If I can't get it, I guess I'll go back to IE. Thanks....

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I would like to download an old version of Firefox - v3.6.11 - where do I find this?

I just want to download the old version of Firefox!!! 3.6.11 - where can I download it from?
Thanks!

You can get any release version of Firefox from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
It is best not to install old versions such as 3.6.11 as they have published security holes. If you want 3.6 it is best to get the most recent version, currently 3.6.17, available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

I just downloade FF 5 and I hate it - I want my old version back - whatever it was. Websites take forever to load if at all - then error message. I lost all my settings. How to revert to LAST version. How do I know last version?

All my settings gone, my 9 most popular visited websites gone. AFter reading through other HELP questions, same thing happened when upgrade to FF4. I want my old version back - and how do I know what my last versionwas?

I don't know what your previous version was. If it was before version 4 then finding 3.6 or so maybe hard to find. You might run a search on Google for Firefox 3.6.
Firefox 4 can be downloaded here if you don't have in your download file.
