Latest version of Firefox is not compatible with my Mac G4 dual processor?

Have used Firefox for a long time now and suddenly the new
updated version does not work with my Mac G4 dual processor machine. What can be done?

Firefox 3.6.x is the last version available from Mozilla for PPC Macs. <br />

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

  • Latest version of Tiles appears not compatible with JSF 2

    I have been doing java server faces for about a month now. In general, i very much like what I see. However, I found significant problems with Tiles. I have now spend about 8 hours trying to debug it. The book by David Geary and Cay Horstman have a whole section on tiles. However, the latest download of Tiles has changed significantly since the authors wrote the section. I have debugged and debugged to now I get the following in NetBeans:
    SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class com.sun.faces.config.ConfigureListener
    java.lang.VerifyError: (class: com/sun/webui/jsf/renderkit/html/AccordionTabDesignTimeRenderer, method: encodeBegin signature: (Ljavax/faces/context/FacesContext;Ljavax/faces/component/UIComponent;)V) Incompatible argument to function

    My only conclusion is that the latest version of tiles is not compatible with JSF 2.
    Is anyone able to get the latest version of Tiles to work with JSF 2?

    JSF + Tiles is not going anywhere. Most of the JSF components render at runtime whereas Tiles only works at compile-time. Tiles was designed to work with JSP not JSF, even though some people tried to use it for a while until they realize the big limitation.
    Go and try JSF + Facelets. It'll solve many of your problems.

  • The newest version of Firefox is not compatible with the website I need to use for my online classes. Is it possible to download an older version so that I do not have to switch to Explorer? Thank you.

    I am unable to upload documents.

    Currently the only supported Firefox versions are 7.0.1 and 3.6.23
    Other versions including 6.0.2 have security vulnerabilities and are not recommended.
    You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 7.

  • Where do I find and download the old version of Firefox that is compatible with my MAC Power PC G5, please?

    Refer to Question 877611 for the full history of '''why''' I'm looking for the old version. Suffice it to say - I need to download the old Power PC version. You must have a copy of it somewhere for us dinosaurs who haven't succumbed to Intel. I was using 3.6.16. It worked fine. I want it back, please. Thank you.

    -> Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.
    * Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
    * http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/6.0.2/system-requirements/
    -> IF you want to keep using Firefox 3.6.x, it can be found here:
    * http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    -> For an unofficial Firefox 4 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:
    * http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    * http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Apparently the latest version of Firefox does not respond to the Mac's trackpad ability to use fingers to enlarge and reduce the size of whatever it is I'm looking at. Why?

    I'm using a MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.7) and appreciate the ability to enlarge and reduce web pages by using a two-finger "spread" on the trackpad. Since installing 4.0.1, it seems I can no longer do this.
    The previous version of Firefox allowed this.
    Why? It's lots more convenient that using "command plus the + key".
    Does this mean I go back to Safari?
    Thanks!

  • You *come into my screen and say "Update to the latest!!" I do, my old version is wiped out and then you show a message, "This version of Firefox is not compatible with your OS X"

    You * pop into my screen and say "Update to the latest, Firefox 4.0!!"
    I do, and my old version is wiped out.
    Then you show a message, "You can't use Firefox 4 with this version of Mac OS X"
    Are you certified idiots!!
    Why don't you check the version of Mac OS X before spamming my screen with your stupid exuberance, as I say, *!!
    What do I do m]now that I lost all me passwords, etc., etc.??

  • IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

    iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open.  So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

    Maybe. See:

  • I updated my windows 7 and when I did I received a message that firefox is not compatible with windows 7 updates. What happened?

    I got a message to update windows. I updated. My computer said firefox was not compatible with update. I then tried to purchase Avast and it basically crashed my computer. I had help in restoring and when system was checked it showed two different firefox downloads that had not succeeded because they were incompatible with my system. I don't know enough about computers to understand what happened. I have a Dell Studio xps with Windows 7. Thank you.

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • I need to silently upgrade from 3.5 to 7 but get an error message after 7 install. Platform version 7.0 is not compatible with minVersion = 1.9.1

    I'm trying to silently upgrade my environment to FF 7. I've gotten the silent install working great, it puts in my Proxy Server info, reassigns the home page and all that. But, the last version we pushed out was FF 3.5. If a user had that on their PC and they run the FF7 install, they get weird messages when clicking on the icon.
    XULRunner: Error: Platform version '7.0' is not compatible with minVersion >= 1.9.1 maxVersion <=1.9.1
    Another message they get is:
    AutoConfigAlert:
    Netscape.cfg/AutoConfig failed. Error: pref failed: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.setBoolPref]" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: prefcalls.js :: pref :: line 70" data: no]
    This is on Windows XP

    Do you have other virtualization or security software that might protect .ini and possibly other files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) and prevent Firefox from updating them properly?

    How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this? The site listed below is a job application site. I've had this same problem with other job application sites also.

    There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
    The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
    There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
    See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
    You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

  • Error: Platform version '25.0' is not compatible with minVersion = 26.0 maxVersion = 26.0 HELP!

    Hi All,
    I keep getting this error message when opening Firefox on my computer. However, if I run it as an Administrator it works fine. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox including downgrading to older versions and still no luck. This is the Error I get:
    Error: Platform version '25.0' is not compatible with minVersion > = 26.0 maxVersion < = 26.0 edit
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then disable Virtualization and reinstall Firefox.<br />
    Other security software may have similar features to prevent Firefox from updating files properly.
