Why won't firefox for mobile install on my motorola bravo phone?

I have a motora bravo with a 2.1 android system. I download firefox from the market and when it gets 10% or more into the install process it causes my phone to reboot. I have tryed it several times with both normal market, direct from mozila, and with a side loader from my laptop. In all cases the install process at aprox. the same point causes the phone to reboot. App other downloaded apps and programs install ok, but not firefox.

Hello, Thank you for the reply. I have the SDK tool but haven't had much time to work with it and get it to run proper. It is a new phone and "ATT" has disabled several features on it as to restrict usage of thier phones. I Did get Fennec to install from your feb 22 update (#4.06pre) and so far it runs great. So I will try and use it as much as possible to test it out. I don't know what changes you made from the one in the android market to that one but it fixed the problem and thank you.

Why won't Firefox for Android on my Kindle Fire HD play YouTube videos?

The default browser (Silk) on the Kindle Fire HD plays YouTube videos. Both Firefox for Android and Silk obviously use the same operating system and hardware. What needs to be done to/with the Firefox for Android browser so that it will play YouTube videos. Firefox on my desktop machine plays YouTube videos.

There is the old insecure Flash 11.1 Plugin that Adobe (and Google Play) has not supported since Android 4.0. As long as you have Android 4.3 or older then you can get the Flash plugin to work in manual install though Android 4.4 has made it so Flash will not work.
However Mozilla has made a workaround for Flash can still work in Firefox on Android 4.4 in as early as Firefox 27.0 if I recall.
There is this thread on getting Flash installed however the poster mentions Dolphin and not Firefox instead.
http://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx1D7SY3BVSESG&cdThread=TxTR71JR4GVXQM
Not that some sites (News sites are among some I encountered) have since lately been requiring users using Flash 11.1 on Android, PlayBook and Flash 11.2.x on Linux to upgrade to more current (not possible) to view their Flash videos.

Why won't firefox let me install an older version of Flash ?

I'm trying to install Flash Player_10_plugin. Since ever since I 'upgraded' to the latest flash version it crashes too much. I downloaded the file, but when I try to download it, a pop up says that I can't; that I should download the latest version, which is exactly what I don't want. And yes, I've read some instructions, tips on here but none have helped. Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you.

Uninstall the 11.3 first, with uninstaller program from Adobe :
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/flash-113-crashes#w_step-1-uninstall-flash-11-3 Uninstall Flash 11.3]
then follow the directions : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/flash-113-crashes#w_step-2-install-flash-10-3-or-11-2 Install Flash 10.3 or 11.2]

Will firefox for mobile run all my apps already installed?

Will Firefox for mobile run all my apps already installed? I would like to install Firefox on both my phone and on my tablet. They are both listed as being compatible with Firefox. However I don't want to lose use of the android apps I have paid for...

Thank you, I will install Firefox on my phone & tablet computer.

How do I export bookmarks from Firefox for Mobile (android) to an html file?

I have bookmarks on my Firefox for Mobile v 33.1 that I would like to copy/back up to an html file. Even if I access the desktop version on my tablet I don't see the Show all Bookmarks - Import/Export option. This Android profile used to be linked through the old Firefox Sync to my PC but the issue is that I can't access it from my PC anymore as I just had to replace the hard disk. I have now installed the new Firefox on my PC but it won't sync with the old Android version as the new Firefox Sync is not compatible with the old one. Also when I go under Sync on the Android, it says the email account is deprecated.
Going forward I understand I need to remove account on the Android, update to the new Firefox Sync and newly link PC and Android device. However I have read that If I remove the account on my Android Firefox and set up the new Firefox Sync on it, I will lose my old bookmarks and it will only start saving and syncing bookmarks from then on even if I use the same email address to set it up. If this is the case and before taking this step, is there a way I can copy my old Android bookmarks to an html file?
All suggestions very much appreciated! I'm completely lost.
Thanks

Tangram that is an answer for desktop Firefox. It does not apply to Firefox for Android.
There is no way to export bookmarks/history in Firefox for Android.
However your Firefox sync account is unrelated to the Firefox for Android profile. You can safely remove the account without loss of data. Then set up a new Sync Account.

Why won't firefox search?

Why won't firefox search when I type anything into the search bar? It lists everything I've typed in before but when you click search it just sits there doing nothing. If I use the search bar in the top right corner it searches just fine, but nothing from the central search line.
Also what is the line below this for? if I mouse over it I get a pointy finger, but it is blank and remains blank.

If you can't clear that saved form and search history then there may be nothing to clear.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>
If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
Thanks.

Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.

Hi David,
Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Is the Firefox for Mobile desktop emulator still available?

I've followed the link in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/792964 but can't find any further information on downloading the Firefox for Mobile Emulator. Could just be a lack of caffeine on a Friday morning...
Any help appreciated.

Hi,
I think Fennec 10.0b6 was the last release: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/10.0b6/

Why won't Firefox won't download?

Why won't Firefox download? It completed the set up stage then stops.

If downloads hang at the last minute (just before reaching 100%), the cause might be antivirus software which tries to scan the file and during that process hangs the Firefox instance.
In order to fix the problem, try disabling the scanning as follows:
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page. A list of settings should appear
# Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in ''scanWhenDone''. '''You should now find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference'''.
#Double-click on that preference to set the value to ''false''.
#Next, try to download something and see if it still hangs.
Please reply and tell us whether this helped you!
