Is Firefox supported by Mountain Lion OS?

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and my Firefix browser is no longer operative is there a new version to download to be compatible with Mountain Lion OX?
Cesar

In what way is Firefox no longer operative?
Did you try to uninstall (trash) Firefox and reinstall the Firefox application?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Firefox 18 on Mountain Lion frequently hangs with spinning ball for 1 min while a page is loading, or while opening a new tab. No tabs useable

    Firefox 18 on Mountain Lion. Frequently hangs for minutes with spinning ball, usually while a page is loading (status bar says "loading..." "waiting..."), but sometimes just while on the same page. Other tabs and windows are not useable, even though only one tab is waiting. I usually have 2-4 windows open with several tabs each. Behavior is no different in safe mode. This is making the browser unusable.
    In the past this happened and I've reinstalled or created a new clean profile, but it always recurs.

    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.

  • USB/Flash support for Mountain Lion

    What App is availiable on app store as USB support for mountain lion? There was one 'USBmate'. Is it okay? If not please tell me how to get the USB support. I have downoaded installation of ML but have not installed it because backups have to be on external HDD. Please help me.

    I don't know to what you are referring. I think you mean a bootable USB flash drive for installing OS X. If so, then know there is no such thing for Mountain Lion. There was for Lion, but it is no longer available. Apple never included any installer disc for computers with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed.
    Reinstalling Lion or Mountain Lion is done through the Internet Recovery - OS X (Lion/Mountain Lion)- About OS X Recovery.
    If you download Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store you can save the installer application and make a bootable installer from it:
    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash 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. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.
    As an alternative to the above you can try using Lion DiskMaker 2.0 that automates the process.

  • Is a Brother MFC-9970CDW supported in Mountain Lion?

    Is a Brother MFC-9970CDW supported in Mountain Lion?  I have tried a couple of work-arounds with no success.

    I am using a mfc-490-cw (orignally after updating to ML) it worked,  then at one point in time I received an update from apple and it worked.
    What I would do is check for updates on the mac side (software update) to see if anything is there and then I would wander over to brother to see if they have any patches for mountain lion.

  • MacPro1,1 not supported by Mountain Lion. I want 10.7 Lion server.

    I have a MacPro1,1 not supported by Mountain Lion. How do I now upgrade my Lion machine to 10.7 Lion server? I can no longer find it in the Mac App Store.

    You have to call 1-800-MY-APPLE to order Lion. They will send you a code by email your Apple ID is registered to so you can download it from the MAS. More then likely the same goes for Lion server as that is not showing on the MAS either. But you will have to check on the server product when you call.

  • The files are on a volume that does not support Trash- Mountain Lion CC-Lr5

    I'm trying to delete files in Lr5-CC and I'm running Mountain Lion My files are on an external portable HD.  I'm getting a message that says: "The files are on a volume that does not support Trash." Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?  Thank you

    Hello,
    This reply is months late, but hopefully it'll help you or someone else searching with this problem. I was having the same problem and found a way to get rid of it (permanently, it seems so far). The diagram below shows the steps I took in detail.
    Note: This seems to especially be a problem if your photo files on the same disk as a Mac OS installation or bootable backup.
    Hope this helps:

  • No Dial Up support with Mountain Lion?

      My father updated his laptop to Mountain Lion.  We have a cottage in north-western Ontario - not very tech friendly.  There is no high speed or wifi, we only have dial up.  We went to connect this weekend only to find out that they took that option away with the upgrade. What gives?  We may be a small part of the consumer base, but really, we can't be the only place to not have these options?
      Anyone have suggestions?
    Tks!

    see this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10728?viewlocale=en_US
    If you are using the Apple USB modem, it is not supported in Lion. Use a 3rd party adapter. The US Robotics USB Faxmodem and the Zoom USB Faxmodem are both OS X 10.7 compatible, as described in their respective manufacturers' websites. Zoom even gives you detailed information for setting up the modem in Lion.

  • Will a PowerMac G4 support OSX Mountain Lion?

    I've acquired a PowerMac G4 (CPU type PowerPC G4 2.9). It is at least 6 years old to my knowledge. The previous owner passed away 4 years ago and it has not been used since that time. I am trying to determine whether or not to upgrade but would like to know if this model with 768MB of memory will be able to handle OSX Mountain Lion? Any advice on upgrades is welcome. The majority of the products on this G4 are out of date and I can not update because I do not know the previous "deceased" owner's admin password. The OS start up disk that belongs to the computer has been lost. Should I try to purchase another OS start up disk? Would that work to by pass the admin password? Thanks I know this was a lot of questions all packed into one.

    Hello, sadly the highest OSX it can run is 10.5.8/Leopard.
    10.6.x,10.7.x, & 10.8.x will NOT work on any PPC Mac like a G4.
    With only 768 MB of RAM I wouldn't advise anything beyond 10.4.11 actually.
    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
    Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...
    http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+leopard+retail+10.5
    You have to call Apple & likely ask for a Product Specialist to get it, if they still have it! Helps to tell them you have an iPad/iPhone & you can't run 10.6.
    There are workarounds if the 867MHz CPU is the only hangup...

  • CS6 Support for Mountain Lion?

    In the FAQ I found this:
    Do Adobe Creative Suite 5, 5.5, and CS6 applications support Mac OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8)?
    Adobe and Apple have worked closely together to test Adobe® Creative Suite® 5, 5.5 and CS6 editions and individual products for reliability, performance and user experience when installed on Intel® based systems running Mac OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8). Earlier versions of Adobe Photoshop® (CS3 and CS4) software were also tested with Mountain Lion and there are currently no known issues.
    As with any new release of an operating system, there may be unexpected issues that arise that were not discovered during testing.  If you encounter any issues, please report them on our bug reporting form.
    But this still does not really answer the question, If I run into a problem with CS6 can I expect Adobe to support it and patch any problems or (as has happened in the past) will they ignore it and only fix them when CS7 comes out.
    Or to put this another way, how long should I wait before upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion?

    Depends. If it is a bug critical to the application it should be fixed within the release.  Minor issues can be fixed either during the Cloud development cycle which is a different version of DW than the traditional license then it should be fixed more immediately regardless of the issue.  I can tell you I've been working with Mountain Lion since release, already at 10.8.2 and DW CS6 traditional license works fine for me.

  • Is Adobe AIR supported under Mountain Lion?

    I see several problems referenced with Adobe AIR and Mountain Lion support. My application crashes on load as well. Is there a fix in the works for Adobe AIR?

    Thanks for opening the bug report.  We're a bit behind right now but I've asked the team to take a look.  I'd like to recommend anyone else experiencing this bug to take a minute and vote/comment in the bug report.

  • Anyone now why my late 2006 iMac isn't supported for Mountain Lion installation?

    My late 2006 iMac was one of the first Intel ones (Core 2 Duo), so does anyone know what about the hardware itself means that Apple don't support it in Mountain Lion?
    On the Mountain Lion Tech Spec page it states that Mountain Lion is compatible with the 2007 models onwards. I know they have to stop supporting old devices eventually to be able to progress smoothly but why aren't all Intel iMacs supported?
    Just curious really.

    Mainly the graphics card, which must be only about 1.5 years old max to support many utilities built into ML.
    That and the fact that OSX built to be the bestand fastest at some point cannot use very old hardware and CPUs.

  • Power PC applications not supported by Mountain Lion OS?

    I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion OS and my existing Microsoft Office 2004 applications on my MacPro are no longer supported.  Would more recent versions of Microsoft Office be supported by ML OS or not?

    Mountain Lion supports Microsoft Office 2008 and 2011.

  • Why is not Mac Mini mid 2010 airplay supported in Mountain Lion?

    I am really disappointed that a two year old computer mac mini mid 2010 is not supported for airplay in the new OS release Mountain Lion.
    I do not think it can  be HW related, I think it is the marketing people at apple who are greedy. I am willing to pay for the software upgrade but I don't want to buy a new computer every year. Bought mac for premium price since I thought it would last longer and have HW that is supported.

    Actually I was not after the video part in Airplay more the Airtunes part which is working on my machine in Itunes. I hoped there now would be support for the audio part of Airplay in any program so that I could play spotify from my mac to my airplay capable airport express. Today I am using my Ipad or Iphone to airplay spotify which is working great, but say I want to have some music on my stereo while watching a youtube video on the Ipad then the spotify stream is stopped and the video i airplayed instead, anoying. Yes I now there is a third pary solution for this http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/ but why is not this built right into the OS?
    Regarding the video part of Airplay you are probably right that  the Mac Mini mid 2010 may not have the on the fly HW encoding. But what about using the processor DualCore 2,66MHz and perhaps some reduction in video quality if needed.
    I have already tested this with this open source program that turns your mac mini into an apple tv http://ericasadun.com/category/airplayer/
    There is now a commercial program available http://bananatv.net/ , again I expected this to be built right into the OS by apple but maybe I should not compare apples and bananas :-)
