I want to downgrade to 3.6.x. F4 doesn't seem to display properly no matter what I try!

I've gone to the Mozilla link provided to obtain older Firefox versions, but every time I've tried to download and install, I get the message that the file is corrupted (English US version).
F4 is displaying web pages too large. Zooming out only helps a little, but still can't see the whole page. I've tried resetting it and tried changing minimum font size to no avail. Hence, the main reason I want to go back to 3.6.16.
Is there any place I can download an uncorrupted file?
(BTW, this is an essentially "new" computer. New motherboard, chipset, memory, and harddrive with a brand new install of Windows XP Pro sp3. )

Well, gee, I can now answer a part of my own question. Talk about having a DUH moment...
I changed my display settings screen resolution and voila! Now have web pages that actually fit on the screen. I can't believe I didn't think of that when I was busy zooming in and out!
However, still can't find an earlier version to download that doesn't give me a corrupted file message!
(To the 4 people who also have this problem, if you find a download site, please post it! If your pages were also displaying too large, hope this helps! ;-)

I want to downgrade from ios7 on my ipad mini-it seems to have affected certain websites which I now can't access due to 'redirect' problem

I want to downgrade from ios7 on my ipad mini-it seems to have affected certain websites which I now can't access due to 'redirect' problem....

Google is your friend. You have to move very quickly on this. It can't be discussed how to do it on this site and is not supported.

I bought a new computer, and iTunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what i do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything, and I want all that on my laptop..

I bought a new computer, and downloaded iTunes, therefore the new itunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what I do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything that my phone has on it, I just want it all moved to my laptop. Does that make sense? I could really use some help. I don't live with this desktop anymore so I need to be able to use my laptops itunes. Please help me. Thanks in advance!

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

I just bought apple tv. I have an ipad mini with ios 6.1.3. I want to do the mirroring but the airplay doesn't seem to be on my ipad. Can someone help?

I just bought apple tv. I have an ipad mini with ios 6.1.3. I want to do the mirroring but the airplay doesn't seem to be on my ipad. Can someone help?

Yes they are both connected to the same wifi network. Do you know when you double click on the home button and swipe right? The airplay button isn't there beside the play/pause and forward and backward button. It should be there.

New iMac user. My mouse doesn't seem to work properly on websites. I just want to be able to click and have it do whatever I've clicked on automatically, for example "print" or "open link". Has anyone else had problems with their mouse?

Has anyone else had problems getting used to their mouse and how the clicks work or don't work on the internet? I click and it doesn't automatically do what I click on. So frustrating!

Hi ndearborn0273!
This is most likely just a settings issue with your mouse that you are able to change through the System Preferences. I have an article for you that can help you set this back to default, and that article can be found right here:
Mac Basics: Set your preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2490
Specifically, you will want to pay close attention to this section of that article:
Customize your mouse
The Mouse preferences pane looks different depending on what kind of mouse you use. These settings let you set the sensitivity of the mouse to control how fast the pointer moves across your screen when you move your mouse, and adjust for your double-click reflexes. Other controls may be available, depending on the type of mouse you're using.
Open System Preferences.
Choose View > Mouse, or simply click Mouse.
To control how fast the pointer (cursor) moves across your screen when you move the mouse, click Point & Click and use the Tracking slider to adjust speed.
If Double-Click Speed appears, you can use the Double-Click slider to adjust speed.
If your mouse has a scroll wheel, you can use the Scrolling slider to adjust speed.
To change gesture settings, click the More Gestures tab. You can enable and disable gestures for swipe and Mission Control.
Judging by your post, I believe your secondary click setting is set to use the left side of the mouse. The default set up for a former Windows user to be most comfortable would be having the secondary click set to the right side of the mouse, as is shown in the picture I have inserted above. Note that these settings will be explained by the little video on the right hand side of this window as you hover over the description of the action on the left hand side.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

What does "UNINSTALL" mean? I want to downgrade versions. Have a Mac.

I want to downgrade to 3.6.x. I have a Mac. Do not understand what "uninstall" means OR how to do it. Thoughtful person at home "upgraded" me BUT alas 4.0.x NOT compatible with work!

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.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
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

I have an iPad Air and want to downgrade to iOS 7. How does this work?

iOS 8.1 is really slow on my iPad Air so i want to downgrade to iOS 7.
What should i do?

Since you can't go backwards to an earlier iOS ... what you should do is reset your iPad to factory default by your iTunes program. Don't forget to do your backups!

Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install tiger discs version 10.4.10. Is it safe to downgrade or not please help

Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10. I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac
Model Name:
iMac
Model Identifier:
iMac7,1
Processor Name:
Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:
2 GHz
Number Of Processors:
1
Total Number Of Cores:
2

Memory:
2 GB
Bus Speed:
800 MHz

Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.

If you are talking about re-activating a phone you already have on the line with the iPhone, yes you can do that. There are no fees to switch from phone to phone.

There's no official way to do that. Downgrading was never supported since the first iPhone.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
If the issue persists...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.

No, Adobe is no longer selling any version of Acrobat 9 and the program is EOL, anyway, with only the most critical issues being patched.

I want to downgrade to mavericks and cannot find os x download anywhere

I want to downgrade from Yosemite to Mavericks I did not do a time machine backup before I upgraded to Yosemite.
My mac book is so new I have no problem doing a clean install there are no personal files than can't be easily replaced.
I cannot find a copy of OS X Mavericks anywhere. Where can I get Mavericks

It's no longer available. You need to do the following:
Install OS X Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
