If I Uninstall the Beta Version & Install Firefox 36.0 , will my Add-ons & Bookmarks be retained ?

I downloaded the latest version 36.0. If I uninstall the Beta version, what happens to my Add-ons & Bookmarks?

If you uninstall the beta, just be very careful that you don't check the box that says "Remove user data". If you leave your data then you can then just open up Firefox release and your data will be there.

  • When I try to update Firefox it repeatedly says Firefox must be closed to proceed with install. I even get the same message when I try to uninstall the existing version of firefox. How do I close Firefox???

    When I try to update Firefox it repeatedly says Firefox must be closed to proceed with install even tho Firefox is closed. I get the same message when I try to uninstall the existing version of Firefox. How do I close Firefox??? The same thing happens when I try to update other programs. When a program is off what else do I have to do to turn it off??

    If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or have other problems with updating to update 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 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.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.

  • Can I delete or uninstall the old version of Firefox left on C: drive when I installed 4.0 on the F: drive to save space and not lose bookmarks or other info?

    Wanted to save space on C: drive and installed Firefox 4.0 on the F: drive. The new install did not delete the files of the older Firefox version in the C: drive. Is the 4.0 version in F: drive using any of the files left on the C: drive? Can I delete or uninstall the old version with out losing bookmarks or other vital information? I want to get the space back for the C: drive but don't want a big headache. When comparing file trees from the new install and the old, there were allot more files in the old and it made me afraid to delete or uninstall the old version.

    The version on the C drive can be deleted, it will not be used. The bookmarks, along with other user data, is stored in the profile folder which is in a different location than the application - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    There are more files in the old version, many of the files in the new version are placed inside omni.jar which is a compressed file.

  • I downloaded the new version of Firefox and it will not open certain of the addresses that I use to run my business. How can I delete this version and go back to the previous version? thank you

    I would like to revert back to the previous version of Firefox. Please tell me how to do this

    hello and thank you for your suggestion. I have tried it and, when trying to open a program which I previously was able to, still get the following message:
    Remote XUL
    This page uses an unsupported technology that is no longer available by default in Firefox.
    Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
    Seems unbelievable that I previously had no problem and now I do. Have you any suggestions to overcome this? Do you think I can go back further in Firefox history to get a version that will make it possible to access this. Many thanks! Lynn

  • I have a password manager built into my fingerprint scanner. It worked on the older version of Firefox but it will not on this new version. It will not recognize log in pages and will not load information.

    With the old version, all I had to do was go to the log in page to any of my email accounts or membership sites and scan my finger. It would fill in the fields and open my account. I like this new version of Firefox, but if I am not able to use that password manager then I will have to install the older version.

    A 2008 black MacBook can run OS X Lion (OS X 10.7). However, if you want to use that Mac for apps that do not work with the new MacBook, I recommend you to leave it with Mac OS X 10.6.8, because OS X Lion removes compatibility with PowerPC apps.
    Do not worry about the battery of the new MacBook Pro. You can replace it yourself or take it to an Apple Store or reseller, and the cost is similar. However, it's important to take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller if your Mac's battery fails while the Mac is in warranty, because you will get the battery replaced for free.

  • How can I check whether new versions of Firefox are compatible with my add-ons? I specifically need to know this regarding Zotero as I would very much hate to loose my reference data base when changing from one version of Firefox to the next ...

    Is there an add-on that can help me with this? Or do I just install the new version and hope for the best?

    Firefox 9.0.1 is a real old version and is no longer supported - Firefox 24.0 is the current release version.
    Open the Add-0ns manager tab and click on '''More''' for each extension that you have installed. Near the bottom of each "More" there should be a link that will take you to the download page where you can verify compatibility.
    Or use this extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/is-it-compatible/ - but I'm not sure how well it will work when you are so many versions 'behind the curve'.

  • The new version of Firefox, 18.02, will not load any pages. Why not?

    I attempted to open Firefox and was told it would load when the updates were applied, which was nothing new. It loaded fine and there were no incompatible add-ons, but it will not load any web pages. I'm on the same computer using Chrome to send this message. Everything was working fine in release 18.01.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • I cannot bring up roboform with the new version of firefox. When will I be able to add on foroform?

    I got the message that the roboform add on is not compatible and that upsets me as I have come to depend on robofrom. Please expedite the compatibility issue or I go back to Internet Explorer.

    Norton has had updates available on the same day that Firefox 5, 6, & 7 were released.
    A Norton compatibility patch for Firefox 7.0 is available as of 09-27-2011. <br />

  • How can I uninstall the google chrome toolbar'it is not listed in add ons or extrnsions

    chrome is causing me trouble I uninstalled it ,but it remains as a tool bar-avg constantly gives me an invalid registry error on chrome

    "Chrome" errors in Firefox aren't related to the Chrome web browser. "Chrome" errors in Firefox are related to the user interface.
    What is the exact "chrome://...." error message?

  • Why does the default theme for firefox 4 only work with add-ons such as personas? It will allow me to preview an alternative theme with a persona but won't let me apply it without switching to the default. No option for disabled and visually impaired.

    Firefox 4 will no longer allow me to use a theme (other than the default) with a Persona. When I "try on" a skin, FF4 allows me to ''preview'' the theme with the persona but will not allow me to ''apply'' the persona without '''automatically''' switching my chosen theme (disorganizing my menu's, bookmarks, and tool-bars) back to the default. Firefox 4 also begins to load an all-default setting browser when it is first opened slowing my browsing start up. All issues were not experienced before the Mozilla Firefox 4.0 upgrade.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • I have Firefox on pc and have installed the us version by mistake ob my android. How can I get the uk version installed

    I want to uninstall the US version of Firefox and install the UK version on my android device. How do I do this?

    Hi,
    Currently we don't have a UK version of Firefox for Android. If you swipe left and tap the gear button at the bottom, then tap the Language item in your Preferences, you'll see the available languages.

  • So which should I have installed now? the beta version or your latest version? or doesn't it make any difference?

    I have always had the beta version installed to get the latest version but now version 14 is out should I abandon the beta and install version 14 or doesn't it make any difference?

    Hi,
    Just to add to what Tyler said, if you are using Sync, you can only have one version installed, either release or beta but not both (from that perspective, it does make a difference).
    Thanks for using Firefox for Android!
