Mozilla Firefox for Mac?

Do you think is worth downloading Mozilla Firefox for the Mac?

im pretty sure the universal version is the standard download at mozilla.com.
i have firefox on my macbook, but i rarely use it - safari works well enough for me, though it seems to use quite a lot more memory than firefox.
I only ever use safari if some page doesnt work. its a backup kind of thing.
when i was on windows mind i'd use firefox as my main browser and IE as a backup, so it kind of cool that my OS's default browser works just as well as i want it to.

I do not like to see that mozilla offers firefox for MAC and also CAMINO browsers.

I like Mozilla.
BUT I do NOT like to be offered two browsers for my macbook.
WHY am I offered CAMINO and FIREFOX? Does not make sense.
Because CAMINO is more adhered to the MAC environ, I suggest you eliminate the other and just rename CAMINO as the version of FIREFOX for Macs! Simple, more economic for you.
Because now if I pick CAMINO I am picking a not very well known browser, and some webpages even do not recognize it (like the www.uned.es)

You can provide '''feedback''' to Mozilla here: 
http://hendrix.mozilla.org/
I'm sure the users and developers of the Camino project would disagree with your opinion. And if other people thought like that back in 2002, Firefox might not exist today.

Firefox for Mac preferences shows .qif file format for quicken as "quicktime image format"-wrong application and won't let me select anything else

Post to Firefox forum; Oct.2011
Re: Quicken 2007; Mac OS 10.5
Problem: can’t import or download Qif format files into quicken from bofa or Chase. Mac can’t recognize; how do I set preferences in Firefox (or Safari).

Hello,
I previously used Firefox on my old Mac G4 with OS 10.3.9; the above issue existed with that system and Firefox 2.00.2 (or similar). I then "tried" to move to a G5 Mac with OS 10.5, hoping that an updated Mac Operating system and updating Firefox would solve that problem.
I'm now working on my son's MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8, 2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2gb Memory; 2 gb 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
I still have a problem in Firefox Preferences trying to download .qif files. BofA Mortgage accounts only allow downloading of .qif files. My .qfx download works fine, but the error message is as follows:
The error message is that this is a corrupted file or one that Preview doesn't recognize.
and it is still a problem when trying to download Quicken .qif format files for our B of A mortgage.
The preferences for Firefox under File Helpers won't let me name the extension I want; instead, it CONFUSES .qif (Quicken Interchange Format) with .qtif (Quicktime Image Format) for Mac.
Therefore, when I download .qif files and try to import them to Quicken, I get a message that this is a corrupted file:
thanks for any help.

Well, in the end, I just gave up and deleted the photos, in the hope that it was something to do with them. Took some more photos and they seem to have imported without any problems at all.
Given that the same irksome photos loaded on the wife's macbook without so much as a murmur, how weird is that?
Still- all's well that ends well. Thanks for the suggestions- much appreciated.

How to install Firefox for Mac on an external USB 3.0 drive and run Firefox portable?

I recently acquired a new MacBook Pro 10.9 Mavericks laptop and, I would like to to install Firefox for Mac on a Mac-compatible external USB 3.0 HD, and import my 16MB of legacy bookmarks from a PC-compatible USB 2.0 HD and, run Firefox as a portable application, as I did for years on my 7-year-old EOS'd Dell Inspiron XP laptop.
Do-able?
If so, I would like to do the same with Thunderbird...

Hi,
There are portable versions of Firefox and Thunderbird but Mozilla doesn't offer them directly. You can get them from PA.com. Links are below:
*[http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable Firefox 28.0]
*[http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/thunderbird_portable Thunderbird 24.4.0]
All you have to do is open it, and point the installation directory to your USB Stick

How to import /export bookmarks in Firefox for Mac

I wanted to export my bookmarks in Firefox for Mac, in htm or pdf format. Cant find any command for that. Nor any import from htm or pdf. Nor can I list all my bookmarks aplhabetically ; I have lots of bookmarks in different folders and I want to see all these bookmarks listed with no folders.

In Firefox for OS X, you can export your Bookmarks to HTML via the Bookmarks dialouge window.
Open your Bookmarks dialouge via the Menu bar: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks.
When the new window has opened, this is what you can do to export your Bookmarks: https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/images/2012-09-16-05-44-02-10bc19.png (or view the image attachment).

I have an iPad and would like to replicate my Bookmarks list from Firefox for MAC to my iPad Safari.app; can this be done automatically?

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.7, and an iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.3.
On the MAC, I have Firefox for MAC v 19.0.2 and Safari 6.0.3
On the iPad, I have only Safari for iPad. I always use Firefox as my browser for the MacBook, but there is no Firefox app for the iPad.
My Safari bookmarks automatically update from the MacBook to the iPad, but not from Firefox to the iPad. Is it possible for the automatic update to be made from Firefox instead of Safari to the iPad Safari.app? If not, is there an easy way on the MacBook to keep the Safari bookmarks up to date with the Firefox bookmarks, so that the iPad shares my Firefox bookmarks?
If not possible now, are you planning to make this possible for MAC users who also have an iPad?

I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''and''''' OSX 10.5 or higher

I have installed mozilla 8 for mac in english but I want ity in italian

I don't find where it's possible to change the language to italian from english version of mozilla 8 for mac

I am an English speaker, my wife and my son speak Welsh.
My son borrowed my Mac, he installed the latest version of Firefox (Welsh version).
Needless to say, I can barely speak the odd Welsh sentence, so I deleted the Mozilla Welsh application and re-downloaded the Firefox (English version) as was suggested above, all to no avail, (still displaying Welsh).
Please, be patient with me and if you can explain to me how to restore English, I would be really grateful, not being a great lover of Chrome, and I want MY Firefox back :-(

Why is Firefox for Mac stalling on many sites recently?

In the last couple of days, my Firefox for Mac (37.0.2) has been stalling on many sites, with the spinning wheel icon just rotating endlessly to show unsuccessful processing. This hanging action occurs on several sites where I'm going into inside pages, a problem I almost never have but now is frequent. Is this some kind of temporary or known issue? I don't want to have to go through Refresh, especially since i noticed someone else commented that it didn't resolve a similar issue. But something is definitely wrong, and is making use of Firefox extremely frustrating if not pointless.

There's a known problem that affects some Acer Liquid phones, but I'm not sure if it affects the Liquid E. We are still investigating it and do not have a solution yet. For details, see: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606194

Need legacy Firefox for Mac OSX 10.3.9 Power PC G4

Can anyone send a link to a .dmg file for legacy Firefox for Mac OSX 10.3.9 Power PC G4. I'm trying to give my mom my old Mac Mini that doesn't have an intel processor, so current browsers aren't possible.

Where is the 'firefox for mac' download button?

Hi,
I've read the mozilla article on downloading firefox for mac, and it shows a download firefox for mac button. As suggested I went to http://mozilla.org/firefox , but there is no such button there, nor was there any indication that the promised 'detecting the right firefox version for your computer' took place. Do I just go ahead with the install or do I need to look elsewhere on the mozilla site for that firefox for mac button?
Mozilla Firefox please update your 'firefox for mac' article!
Thanks in advance to anyone able to advise me.

That page will suggest to you automatically download the last version or you can download from here:
