Installing firefox on usb to use with ubuntu os

Hi,
I want to install FF on a USB and use it when running UBUNTU (live).
I doubt if the Windows version will run, can you recommend a site that will supply a version that will run under this OS.Thanks
A
Ps. I want to install it separately so I can update the browser.

Hi,
Me again.
I take your point about not being able to write to CD-R. But I would expect to able to write to CD-RW. However, I have saved to a pendrive.
I have downloaded the tar.bz2 file and have checked the md5 hash. The hash in the programme is the same as that printer in the hashes directory. I assume that the hashes in the programme are calculated each time the hash compare programme is activated?
I did wonder about hackers however. Suppose a hacker cracked the FF website then substituted there own programme, say FF-Virus, then changed the hash in th hash directory. Presumably, we would think our programme is sound.
I wonder if the problem with hashes is more to do with the possibility of cracking websites?
Best wishes.
A

    I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone so I am very terrible to input my IDs and Passwords with my hands on FireFox Home when I log into Facebook, Twitter etc... Is it issue or something like that? If you have some solutions to make it clear, can you tell me how to syncronize memorized IDs and Passwords for the webs. Thank you.

    You can look in Tools > Options > Sync

    Apps to do what with??
    Good place to look for software:

    And for free alternatives to some popular software packages:

    (If you see an ad there for something called MacKeeper, ignore it and on no account install it - it is malware.)
    And there is of course also the App Store!

  • What to do when I cannot install Firefox 6.0.2, problems with permissions?

    I'm trying now to install Firefox 6.0.2 to my laptop. Asus x70IJ with Win7 64bit. I cannot get installation trough.
    I receive pop-up with text "You may not have the necessary permissions to use all the features of the program you are about to run. You may run this program as a different user or continue to run the program as the current user". I have only one User and definetely have all permissions in this account. There is two choises to run it current user, or as the following.. Administrator is there, but does not aprove my password. And installation end with current user.

    Thanks for sharing the solution with me! For me "run as the administrator" for the installation package was the way to fix it.

  • I am trying to log into a website "Northern Carping" which until I installed Firefox I could log into with no problems and I can still log into this site on my laptop (which doesn't have Firefox)???

    I am a member of a forum www.northerncarping.co.uk/ in which I am experiencing problems trying to log in since I installed FireFox. I also have a laptop which I don't use FireFox on and have no problems. Could it be something to do with firefox?

    Check the date and time in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.

    You can retrieve the certificate and check who issued the certificate and other details like when it is valid.
    * Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".

  • Install mac os x 10.4 with ubuntu

    I need your help. I have powerbook g4 with only ubuntu as operatin system. Now I want to install mac os x 10.4 but I have no idea how to do it. I haven't the original cd of mac but I have the dmg file of the mac os x.
    thanks

    Hello,
    You need a Mac OS X 10.4 install disk.
    You would need to boot from that and use disk utilities to reformat your hard drive to Mac extended journal.
    Follow the installation for Mac OS X 10.4 after formatting.
    You can't install Mac OS X on top of Ubuntu without first formatting the drive.
    If you wish to duel boot, then your need to obtain another Linux install software that will allow you to do so.
    The DMG wont be much help, unless you can burn to disk. To do so it would need to be a disk image.
    You really are advised to obtain the original system restore disks.

  • I cannot install Firefox on my iBook G4 with OS X 10.5.8

    I did download Firefox to my iBook G4 but the system showed that Firefox cannot be installed to Application. It shows the stop sign on Firefox. I changed my hard drive and Operation System. So, I need to re-install Firefox again. I try to install but it shows stop sign every times.

    PPC Macs aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0 & 5.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ <br/>

    Or use Firefox 3.6.x. <br />

  • After installing Firefox 4 Beta 9, using Manual Proxy Configuration fails to connect to the internet and also fails with corporate intranet. Has anything changed?

    Initially, Firefox 4 Beta 8 is installed. Manual Proxy Configuration was used, and worked fine.
    After installing Beta 9 using the built-in updater, connecting to internet and intranet fails instantly with Page Not Found error. Restarting Firefox does not fix the problem.
    Clean install of Beta 9 also exhibits the same problems.

    I have this problem too...

  • How to install firefox on Windows 7 using Verizon MIS 12200 OTA high speed internet and Internet Explorer?

    Downloaded Firefox to the desktop. When installing while not on the internet and the installation crashed. A window asked us to go onto the internet. We did and clicked the Firefox download button. When running the program, it crashed again.

    I have an old PSUS4 and a Samsung ML-2010R.  Both work perfectly so my issues are mostly with getting them to work each time I step up to the next Microsoft OS.  The post by wdboer helped me get my Windows 7 32-bit PC connected to my printer over the LAN and via the PSUS4 so many thanks to wdboer.
    I upgraded to a 64-bit PC with Windows 8 and followed the same instructions and used the Universal Printer Driver downloaded from Samsung but all I got was the printer to 'wake up' but it printed nothing (a direct USB cable connection worked fine).  I finally got the printer to work by;
    1. Windows 8 Control Panel
    2. Device and Printers
    3. Right click on the newly installed printer
    4. Click on the Device Options tab
    5. Selecting the Printer Model drop down and selecting Samsung ML-2010 Series followed by Apply
    When I went back to the General Tab and clicked on Print Test Page, the printer woke up and printed the test page
    Cheers, R

  • How can I get a copy of Firefox 3.5 for use with an old piece of equipment that cannot use a newer version?

    I have an old piece of equipment that hasn't been updated in years. When trying to access the internal web page, it states that I need to use Mozilla 3.5 or better. Although the latest version is far superior, this thing doesn't like it. Could really use some help with this. Thanks.

    Hello to all
    another option is to download and install the portable firefox version from the next link, if you want to use it occasionally : http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./
    portable version is more flexible, and you can delete it any time without worries
