Quicksilver/Firefox: Which PowerPC Processor?

I thought i knew my Quicksilver +(the actual one pictured in my avatar)+ had a PowerPC 7450, but i'm trying to run Firefox compiled for 7450 and it crashes when run.
My searches aren't finding that spec.
System Profiler reports:
Machine Name: Power Mac G4
Machine Model: PowerMac3,5
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 733 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
Memory: 1.5 GB
Bus Speed: 133 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.2.5f1
*Does this not have a 7450?*
*Anybody have an idea why Firefox (Shiretoko) 3.5.5 for 7450 would crash as soon as it's run?*

Hi, Cut'n Paste -
Your QS 733MHz model originally came with a 7450 processor. I have no idea if this makes any difference, but it does not have an L3 cache - in the QS family, L3 caches came only with single-processor models with speeds greater than 800MHz, and with all dual processor models.
Whether that makes a difference is something that only the developers could answer; contacting them, as a brody suggested, would be the thing to do.

I upgraded to 6.02 and still get this message from Gmail: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version."

When I opened Gmail in my Firefox browser, I got a message I've never seen, before: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version." I clicked on upgrade to a new version and was taken to the Mozilla site, where I downloaded the latest version of Firefox... then, when I restarted my computer, Gmail still gives me the same message!! What's going on?

Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and a Mac with an Intel processor.

Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8?

Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8? I had an older version of Firefox and it said I needed to update it but that was the message that appeared.

Sorry, it's because Firefox 4+ are only compiled for the Intel processors.
There is a separate project for PPC Macs called Ten Four Fox. You might give it a spin when you're tired of 3.6.

I somehow installed a version of Firefox which won't work on my "old" iMac G5 (10.5.8) so I trashed the program and now I can't get it out of my trash bin... Any help appreciated because now I can't empty my trash at all! Thanks.

Adobe flash won't download without my first closing firefox, which defeats the objective of trying to upload it to work with firefox - why?

I can open BBC in Firefox and then when I try to play a programme it won't let me do so without Adobe Flash 11, which I already have in my programmes. However, it doens't agree so I need to download this programme but it won't let me complete the process, saying it can only do so if I close FireFox, which also means I can't completely the process!
Earlier I have uploaded Google Chrome so I can install this programme (hence why I know I have the latest version). I have also tried to do this with Explore but it appears that there is an adware browser there called Snap.do, which arrived via Skype impersonating a new video download. I have done everything possible to clear it but suspect this is causing the system problems but it is still showing up.
However, I did keep getting a message about Shock wave flash earlier and found an instruction on the internet that I should disable this and also Java. I've now reuploaded the latter. But I cannot find the Mozilla support that gave me the option to disable Flash player so as to try enabling it.
PLEASE HELP! My computer is going crazy and I am too.
Much appreciated.

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs on each start of Firefox.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
you can check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

Director PowerPC processors (PPC ) can't open the application because it is "not supported on this a

I created a projector in Adobe Director 11.5 for the Mac.
For some reason PowerPC processors (PPC ) can't open it because they received a message saying the application is "not supported on this architecture."
And idea if there is a way to make projectors compatible for the Mac PPC processors?
Thanks,

Check your product version by typing "put the productVersion" into the message panel - if you don't get the response "11.5.9" then update the to latest patch by selecting the Update option from Director's Help menu. (I suspect you already are on 11.5.9, though, otherwise you wouldn't get this problem).
Next, go to the Publish Settings page, and under the projector tab you will notice an option to create the Mac projector as either a "Universal Binary" or an "Intel Binary"
Universal Binary will run natively on PPC Macs, and will run under Rosetta on Intel Macs running up-to-and-including OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
Intel Binary will run on all Intel Macs running OSX 10.5 and upwards.
Rosetta is a virtualisation layer built into OSX versions up to 10.6; It allows programs written for PPC to run on Intel Macs. Rosetta was dropped from OSX 10.7 (Lion), so a UB projector won't work on Lion.
Hope that helps

I lost all my unpinned 30 tabs and could not restore it, when Adobe update opened a link by firefox, which was not running in the background.

I lost all my unpinned 30 tabs and could not restore it, when Adobe update opened a link by firefox, which was not running in the background.
I guess what I have experienced might be a special case of 'Restore previous sessions'. The actual situation was that after I rebooted my laptop, Adobe update jumped out indicating an update being finished successfully. After I clicked on the 'close' button of the Adobe window, it automatically started firefox and linked to its website. But I did not find the 'Restore previous sessions' page this time. Then I restarted firefox, this time there was a start page with 'Restore previous sessions'. However, sadly enough, it is only restored my pinned pages plus the Adobe website. Actually, I am using 'bookmark all tabs' from time to time to secure opened tabs, but this time I did not expect such an incident. I would suggest to improve the 'Restore previous sessions' with multiple time tags and appear in all cases including my reported case here, after updating firefox, crashes etc. I like firefox in most occasions, therefore believe and hope it becomes better and more robust. Thank you very much!

Hi,
Please see the following support request: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2628065
I think the best option would be to leave feedback here to let the relevant development team know about the problem you have had: https://input.mozilla.org/en-GB/feedback
Also you could try the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-manager/ Session Manager] add-on which gives more control over how sessions are restored.
I hope that helps

Can I transfer docs between a MacBook with a Intel processor and a iMac with a PowerPC processor by using a usb cord?

Can I transfer docs/folders between a MacBook with a Intel processor and a iMAC with a PowerPC processor using a usb cord? Or by loading from the MacBook to a external drive and then to the Imac.

You need to use an external drive, FireWire cable, Ethernet cable, or wireless connection.

Which XSLT Processor does CF8 use?

I'm writing some XSLTs and would like to use the fn:base-uri() that is accessible in Saxon-SA 9.1.0.7 or later editions. I cannot find any documentation on which XSLT processor(s) CF8 uses. Nor can I find anything on possibly upgrading it or using CF to access an external processor. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do upgrade CF8's XSLT processor, use another one via CF or even another function that the fn:base-uri() can do.
What I'm trying to do with the function is to get the XML's file name so that I can parse it out and insert it into the transformed XML.
EXAMPLE XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" exclude-result-prefixes="xs" version="2.0">
    <xsl:output method="xml"/>
    <xsl:variable name="filepath">
        <xsl:value-of select="base-uri()"/>
    </xsl:variable>
     <xsl:template match="/">
          <xsl:value-of select="$filepath"/>
     </xsl:template>

Probably most of the heavy consumption is PGA related.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28274/memory.htm#i49320
Have a look at the AWR history views concerning memory consumption. ADDM, ASH, AWR etc should give you more insight. See also the awr/addm/ash/-rpt.sql scripts in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin on the database server. You (officially) would need Diagnostic en Tuning pack licenses though, so be warned (even for "touching" those views). Probably the heavy consumption of memory is or (wrong) storage related or inefficient code...

What type of format is the PowerPC processor?

Just a simple question, what type of format is the PowerPC processor? I know Intel processors on later Macs is GUID.

Apple Partition Map is the PowerPC partitioning scheme equiv to GUID on Intel Macs. However, the format is normally Macintosh HFS+ (Journaled)

I have firefox 7 and still get warnings "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports or Google Plus incompatible. How can I fix?

When I tried to join Google Plus I get the message Browser no longer supported. First Happened when using firefox 6.0.2 and still happens now with FF 7.
Also Gmail shows "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly"
and at the bottom of this page the "educated guess" about my browser shows 3.0.15

Your about:config has been modified with the lines

That is why Google is reporting old version.
You need to ether find out why or create a new profiles and see if this line is gone. [[Profiles]]
There is some verbose about MS, but I don't know of any MS add-on that would do this.

PowerPC Processor not compatible with CS4 software...

I have the PowerMac G5 first release. I recently purchased the Adobe Master Collection. Some of the programs are not compatible with the PowerPC Processor. I just upgraded my RAM and OS so I would hate to have to buy a new MAC just to run these few programs. Is it possible to link the mini Mac to the G% and have the Intel required programs on the mini MAC? If so how does it work?

the sound or video programs will NOT run on PPC, period. Adobe is pretty clear about this.
yes, you will have to buy a new intel mac. I wouldn't get anything with the intel graphics or last year's closeouts. get the newest & most CPU / graphics you can afford. If you are in Mini territory, get the base one, add the faster CPU. do the RAM & HDD yourself, as long as you don't break anything, it won't viod the warranty.

Is it feasible/cost effective to upgrade my G5, 2 GHz Dual PowerPC processors, 2 GB DDR SDRAM to an Intel system? There are no updates for PowerPC systems any longer.

Is it feasible/cost effective to upgrade my current MAC G5, dual 2GHz powerPC, 2GB DDR SDRAM, running OS 10.4.1.1 to an Intel board & processor(s)? Power PC G5 no longer has updates available. Things such as the newest version of Flash require an intel system.
Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

Well you can upgrade your 10.4.11 G5 to 10.5.8. But you lose Classic, and don't gain any Boot Camp capability. Only Intel Macs have Boot Camp, and still no Classic. You also have be mindful, if you buy too new, you won't have Rosetta capability which allows PowerPC applications to run on Intel Macs that were designed for Mac OS X. Macs that ship with 10.7 or newer have no PowerPC support for applications or drivers. See this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295
