Is 31.0 the latest version for Firefox for mac?
On my Mac, I click on Firefox and then About Firefox and find that I am running Firefox 31.0.
There is no indication whether this is last version or not.
Previously, I got some indication that I was not running the current version.
And I got a pop up box which showed that the computer was trying to connect to the Firefox
facility - I can 't remember the exact name - which would have - I believe - started the update
process.
This pop up box ran for sometime and didn't seem to complete before it disappeared unretrievably
from the screen after I took some extraneous computer action.
So... now I am wondering:
Do I have the latest Firefox installation or not?
Thanks Tyler for your helpful response.
I now have the current 37.0.1 version of Firefox.
What was happening - before - is that my computer was hanging at the step
of "connecting to the update server".
Even when I clicked on your link and then closed Firefox as I was directed.
What I had to do... and what worked... was not just closing Firefox but restarting my computer.
Thanks once again.

Upgraded to latest version for Mac and firefox home page missing graphics, test fill in boxes etc.
Hi: I tried to upgrade to the latest version for Mac and most of the graphics don't appear and the search text boxes and other items are not visible. Can you help?
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

As I said, the other day I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and after doing so none of the icons for the different websites that normally go to are no longer there. Websites such as MSNBC, MSN, Most visited, that entire strip is no longer visible. I tired resetting Firefox and still nothing. Can anyone tell me how to get them to appear again? It's a hassle every time that I want to go to one of those sites I have to type it in the search bar, instead of just clicking on it as I did before. Please keep in mind if you answer, that I'm still learning about these things called computers and not very well versed in some of the things that you experts know:) Thanks
On Windows XP Firefox shows the menu bar by default and not the orange Firefox menu button that is shown when the menu bar is hidden.<br />
The menu bar is the toolbar at the top that shows menu items like File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help.<br />
You can press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily in case this bar is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
The Navigation Toolbar shows the Back and forward button and the input field where you type the address of a site that you want to visit (aka location bar) and also has a search bar where you can type items that you want to look up with a search engine (Google).

The page load progress bar that was on the lower right of the window is no longer there. After updating to the latest version of Firefox on my Mac there is no progress bar for the page load. I really miss this feature and can't seem to find a way to obtain it. The tab has a circular progress wheel but this is useless for determining a stuck or slow loading page.
PLEASE NOTE: I am typing this in from a Windows based work computer but am asking about my Apple MacBook Pro that i use at home.Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
Another possibility is to use:

Question
The latest version of Firefox no longer asks if you want to save open tabs for your next session..I HATE not having that option. What were they thinking? (I think this is self explanatory)Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />

On the opening page of Firefox, I am constantly reminded (and sometimes warned) that I do not have the latest version of Firefox. Yet, when I click for upgrade, I start getting a download of the same version 8.0.1 which I am already running.
This - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I don't think it is being maintained.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''about:home'''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same. -
my PowerBook-G4 operating system software - Mac OS X 10.5.8 - does not meet minimum requirements for downloading the latest version of FireFox ... is there an UpDate to a newer version of my op.sys. software, Or, what is a better choice of an UpGrade to a newer/different op.sys. software ?
Thanx!The best maintained PowerPC browser at the moment is TenFourFox:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
It is a Mac port of a newer version of FF thatn any PowerPC Mac can support natively. It runs, looks and feel like FF.
I found some add-ons that helped TFF with speed issues. Pleae see my post in another PPC forum:

I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!
As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg -

What is the latest version of Firefox for my laptop as of August, 2011?
I'm running Windows 8 (xp) and thinking of switching to Firefox. I'd like to know what the latest version of Firefox is for my laptop?
Do you mean IE8? Windows 8 has not been released.
You can use the current version, Firefox 5.0.1. Look at the system requirements '''''carefully''''' to be sure you have what is necessary, especially '''Pentium 4 processor''' and enough '''RAM''' since many XP systems came with only 256MB. Right-click on the "My Computer" icon on your Desktop and choose Properties for basic information about your system in the "General" tab.

Which is the latest version of firefox for centos 5.6
Dear Sir/ Madam
We are using CentOS 5.5 and CentOS 5.6 on systems in our office.
Can you tell me which is the latest version of firefox that will work with such OS?
Also if you could provide the installation steps that would be great!
Regards
NitinYou would have to check the System Requirements for GTK+ and GLib of later Firefox versions to see if you meet them in your Linux distribution.
They haven't changed according to the system-requirements pages, so if Firefox 17 works then 33 should work as well.

I am using a PowerBook and have recently upgraded to 10.5.8 and would like to get the latest version of Firefox I can. However, FF's home page says 'unfortunately the latest version of FF is not compatible'. But when I look at the requirements it seems that mine should fit. Basically, what is the latest version of FF I can get and how do I find it to download.
ThanksRight now I am trying to reinstall Firefox which was somehow deleted and I keep getting the message that I can not use the new version I have downloaded. I have a power PC G5 and Mac OSX10.5.8. This is frustrating. What do I do?

Is it possible to download the latest version, while still keeping the 3.6 version on my computer as well? I use Windows XP – thanks in advance for any help.
Hey dwebster,
You might want to consider running the older version [http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36 on a USB Stick with PortableApps]. That way you'll still be able to run the latest version for your day to day activities.
Hopefully this helps!
