Is there a version of Firefox still available that does not have plugin-container.exe included?

I have faithfully updated Firefox on my Windows XP system and now use Firefox/3.6.16. I also run Photoshop Elements 6.0, which requires quite a bit of memory. It is currently getting slowed down because plugin-container.exe is consuming anywhere from 25% to 50% of my memory. If I use Task Mgr to shut down this task, things are much better. Is there a downloadable version of Firefox that does not include plugin-container.exe, and if so, can I replace my current version with that one?

To LOVEfx4 and Mozilla community. Have Windows XP and had
Firefox 3.16.6 Since installing Firefox 4 I have had nothing but slowdowns whenever I try to download any sites with Java. Any explanations why? Sorry, I cannot find any threads for Firefox 4.

    Hi [email protected],
    Thank You for psoting on the forums, in order to install an upgrade version you do not need to have the prior version installed on the system, only thing that you need is the serial number of the previous version.
    Please check the document mentione below for further information.

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • I just purchased the apple tv, i have an older tv that does not have an HDMI input.   is there a converter i can get because the itv only have an HDMI output ?  help.

    i just purchased the apple tv, i have an older tv that does not have an HDMI input.   is there a converter i can get because the itv only have an HDMI output ?  help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p.

    I have an ipad version 3.2.2 and it does not have a software update tab under settings, how can I update to ios 5 software?

    Connect it to your syncing PC and update using iTunes on the PC. The OTA (over the air & under Settings>General>Software Update) update was introduced with iOS 5.

  • How can I install Firefox on a server that does not have an internet connection?

    I run Firefox on a server to display graphs for a program. I was able to save, upload and install Firefox version 21 on my server because it used the executable installation program. Versions 22 and 23 use a stub program that goes to the internet and installs the program. My server does not have an internet connection, so the stub program does not work. Can I get a copy of the executable program that installs the program without having an internet connection?

    hello pkautzman, the full install packets that are capable of an offline installation are available at https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/.

  • Can't access firefox anymore because "it does not have a program associated with it"

    Suddenly today I was unable to launch firefox as normal. Told that "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" And that I should create an association in the Folder Option control panel. I have not been able to work out how to do this, and wonder where the program (that has obviously been there for the past few years) has disappeared to?? I am still using Windows XP....... could it be something to do with that?

    There are some malware infections that make it hard to run programs (EXE) files. Hopefully you do not have one of those.
    Could you check whether it is a problem with your shortcut by starting Firefox a different way:
    Start menu > Run, type or paste the following and then press the Enter key or click Go:
    firefox.exe

  • Installed new version of Firefox, now scroll wheel does not work

    Installed new version of Firefox, now my scroll wheel does not work. I need this fixed immediately or will be forced to abandon Firefox as my browser. Can anyone help? I saw some Q&A on this but no definite fix. Thanks!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Immediately after I installed

    I have the same problem, plus more. I cannot click on a button, does no good. I have been using 3.01, would never upgrade; always had a problem since 3.5. Now I upgrade to 3.66 figuring the problems were over, wrong. No scroll wheel, no buttons, cannot close half the windows, cannot go to a bookmarked page. Did Microsoft take over Mozilla? If I wanted a junk browser, I would use IE. I want the Firefox that it used to be; stable, reliable. What happened? Only way I can get Firefox to work is in safe-mode.

  • HT201272 I seem to have a version of overdrive media console that does not support wma audiobooks files. Is there anyone with this problem with a solution.

    I recently installed the overdrive media console.  I was able to down e books and mp3 books but when I tried to down wma books. A message flashes out that the omc that I installed from the apps store is unsupported format.  The version of omc does not support wma audiobook titles.  Any suggestions.
    Daphne

    WMA stands for Windows Media Audio...it is a Microsoft audio format that is not supported on the Mac or iOS version of the apps.   If you want to use the WMA audiobooks, you will have to use the Windows desktop app.  You can use MP3 audiobooks on any version of the app.

  • I've downloaded firefox 4, but it does not have the orange firefox bar at top left and I do not have any page forward/back arrows...why not? in English

    The opening page does not show the orange bar that is supposed to hide my choices. How do I move back and forth between pages as there are no back and forward arrows at top left anymore.
    Also I cannot view the html or web address of the page I am working on to see if it is a secure site (ie for money transactions)
    or to copy the web address to send to another person.
    thanks, colette

  • Is there a version of Lightroom still available which I can use with Mac OSX 10.5.8?

  • Is there a version of Illustrator CS5 available that can be viewed clearly on my 1920x1080p screen?

    I have an HP ENVY laptop with a 1920x1080p resolution screen, running the Windows 8 operating system, and my Adobe Illustrator CS5 program (version 15.0.2) looks fuzzy (not clear). However, my Photoshop CS5 program (version 12.0) looks very sharp, though with super small font, as many users have been complaining about in other discussions. However, I would prefer my Illustrator program to be sharp, with tiny font, rather than fuzzy, with normal-sized font. Can someone please suggest how to obtain a version of the Illustrator program (CS5) that will be sharp, like Photoshop? Or if is a matter of changing settings, how do I do that?
    Sincere thanks!
    -Loyal Adobe user.
