Why can't I keep Firefox icon in dock permanently?

The Firefox 2.0.0.6 disk image is in my app folder. I click it and get the mozilla license screen. I accept and get a Firefox volume on my desktop. I open the volume and get a Firefox icon in my dock, which, when clicked, opens Firefox. When I quit Firefox the dock icon disappears. When I restart, the Firefox volume on my desktop disappears. Is there a way to keep the Firefox icon in my dock permanently? Thanks,
Owen

You're welcome, and thank you, Owen, for the ! It is good to know my work here is appreciated.

Why can't I place disk icons on my desktop?

Why can't I place disk icons on my desktop?
I installed OSX Lion, version 10.7.1 from the App Store onto the internal disk of my MacBookPro which was cloned to an external FW800 GoFlexDesk drive. I booted from that external drive, ran the disk utility to erase and then repartition my internal drive so that I would have a "clean" installation of Lion. My disk icon (for the internal drive) does not even show in Finder windows. In Snow Leopard I showed my internal drive, my Time Capsule drives, and any external drives on my desktop as icons. Now these do not even show in Finder. I know they are there, because if I choose the path view option, they are shown when I pick "All My Files" under favorites. I can navigate backwards in the path bar, but still they do not actually allow me to select them or drag them to the desktop. In Snow Leopard, it was an option to show disks on desktop in general system preferences, but I find that option no where in Lion! What simple little thing am I missing?

Mac user OS 10.6.8 Firefox 6.0.2. Click the Firefox icon in dock, program does not open new window. Type cmd+N to open new window, cmd+T to open new tab or cmd+L to enter URL, nothing happens. What causes this, and what can be done?

It's strange. The problem apparently resolved itself after I ran TechTool on it. When I clicked on Firefox last night, I had no problem opening a window. Thanks for your help. (As to your previous post, the focus was on Firefox and neither the speed keys nor the menu bar would open a window or tab of allow me to enter a URL to open a window. Strange!)

Why can't I use firefox as my browser on my iPad

Why can't I use firefox as my browser on my iPad also why can't I access adobe flash

Flash is not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Apps such as Skyfire claim to support flash, but their reviews are mixed.
In terms of Firefox, you can only install apps (i.e. programs) that are available in the iTunes App Store, not normal PC or Mac software - the iPad runs iOS, not OS or Windows. If the makers of Firefox havn't created an iOS version of it then you cannot run it.
Edit : some websites (especially news sites) have their own apps in the App Store

Why can't you keep addons compatible with your very frequent new version releases?

While I understand that you don't write the addons, it is very frustrating to me, that you keep releasing major version releases every few months, and the result is large numbers of incompatabilities. Why can't you make your builds more forgiving for addons? For instance I cannot use Norton Internet Security's toolbar right now - that's a pretty major addon, and I think it's on Mozilla to ensure some form of compatibility, or at the very least, have common REQUIREMENTS published, so vendors aren't left guessing every time.

This is a fake page, do update only from official page:
*[http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/new/]
This page comes up when you click on a link? Open Firefox?
Try Start in Safe Mode, sometimes this problem is caused by addons:
*[http://mzl.la/MwuO4X Firefox in safe mode]
Case the problem doesnt occur in Safe Mode:

Sometimes the problem can be Malwares:

Also, you can use addons to block popups/ads:

Keeping Firefox Icon in my Menu Bar

I use Mac OSX Tiger. I cannot keep the Firefox Icon in my Menu Bar, which means each time I turn on the computer I have to fuss with getting the icon in my menu bar. Can anyone advise?

Typically when you install Firefox you download a .dmg file (disk image file), which if you double-click, will open and show a Firefox icon. To install Firefox, you'd drag that icon to the Applications folder. Then you would close the window that opened when you double-clicked on the .dmg file.
To run Firefox you would double-click on the Firefox icon in the Applications folder, not the dmg window.
To install the Firefox icon in the "dock" (what you call the menu bar), drag the Firefox icon from the Applications folder to the dock.
(My suspicion is that instead you dragged the icon from the dmg window to the dock.)
I'd recommend that you not have Firefox running while you attempt any of the above actions.

Just updated to 7.0.1 for Mac Snow Leopard, but the icon in my dock isn't the firefox symbol, it's a "document" icon. How can I get the firefox icon in my dock again?

I was given an auto-update message from Firefox, which asked me to restart the program to initiate the update. As soon as Firefox restarted, I got a weird document icon in my dock - in the place where the Firefox icon was moments before. The new update of Firefox seems to be working just fine, but I would like the Firefox icon in my dock and not this unrelated icon. Can you help, please?

I had this problem. Re-instal Firefox. After you drag the Firefox icon in to the Applications icon it is going to ask you if you're sure that you want to replace the version that's there - say yes. Then go down to your dock and remove the Firefox icon - drag it off the dock so it "poof!s" away. You can now put the icon on your dock again from your newly updated version. If that doesn't fix it drag it off the dock again, probably no need to re-update for the third time. Fixed it for me anyway. GL!

Why can't I keep my songs on my ipod and still sync a movie?

I am new at this.. I bought a movie and want to sync it to my iPhone/iPod but a message tells me I will lose my music when I sync the movie. Why can't I have the music and movie? Why does one replace the other? I appreciate the help you can give me. Thanks!

Thank You. I will work with the information you gave me and see if I can
learn what is going on.

Subject:        Why Can't I Put My Clips on Certain
Video and Audio Tracks?
Any kind of source video can go on any video track in a sequence.
Therefore, it's the audio that is causing the problem.
Your source clips can have three potential audio channel assignments
(actually, there are more, but they are just combinations of these three).
A source clip can have mono audio, stereo audio, or 5.1 audio.
Correspondingly, there are specific types of audio tracks that must be in
a sequence in order for source clips with specific source channels to be
edited into them. If you drag a clip to a sequence, and there is not an
audio track that matches the source channels of the source clip, a new
track will be created that matches, e.g. a stereo track for a stereo
source clip. However, if you try to insert or overlay a source clip into a
sequence that doesn't have a matching track, the audio will be ignored.
In the sequence, you can tell what sort of audio track you're working with
if you look for the little speaker icon that appears just to the right of
the track header label (Audio 1, Audio 2, etc.). A single speaker is mono,
a double speaker is stereo, and "5.1" is displayed for 5.1. You can add
tracks manually by right-clicking the header area and selecting Add
Tracks, or going to Sequence > Add Tracks.
It sounds like you're working with media with various audio assignments;
the Project Panel display will tell you how many channels are in your
source clips if you don't know for sure. Once you know that, you can
control where your clips go when you attempt to add them to a sequence.

Why can't I access Firefox directly any more?

For many months, I have used Firefox to access Melaleuca.com to place a regular monthly order. This morning, when I clicked on Firefox, a box popped up saying I couldn't use Firefox with this version of Mac OS X. Why can I not? And what can I do about it?

There's a third party version of Firefox 4 you can install on your MAC here: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

I can't get the Firefox icon to remain in my tray on a MAC OS X 10.5.8

That's the story: I download, but when I close firefox, the icon disappears from the tray at the bottom of the screen.

You mean the dock. You can put the Firefox icon in the dock by dragging the icon from where Firefox is installed and dropping it on the dock.

Why can't I install firefox in the language of MY chosing?

I get sometimes very tired of preassumptions on websites that are hard to change.
The Firefox download takes that to the extremes. Why can't I just install and UK version and get all the time prompted to download the NL version. I am working internationally and want all my programs to be English, so this presumption is more than just frustrating, it is wasting time and injecting lots of negative energy!

Why can I surf on Firefox, but not on Safari?

Hi,
I'm running an iBook G4 with 10.4.8 on it. My DSL internet connection is through an apartment server, requiring its own manual network configuration to work. That is the easy part...it took a week to figure out the proxies (the local staff and their command of english is Ok but not that good) and I got Firefox up and running. It has been working great for a month.
But one thing is puzzling me, why can't Safari see that I have a functioning DSL internet connection? I am using the same manual configuration for the connection and I have made sure that every program that needs this connection can see it. This problem is, in fact, bigger than just Safari. None of my Apple programs (including Network Diagnostics), Yahoo Messenger or Google Earth can see my working internet connection. I'm perplexed! Any ideas?

Hi, CatherineTW.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your Bluetooth device is connected during playback of these videos. Try changing the audio source to iPhone or disconnect the Bluetooth device when playing videos.
