My albine worked with the last version before I upgraded to 17. I did not save that version and would like to go back to it. I did save firefox 9 and that is what I am using now but I believe you have a later version that i could use. What was the version before 17 and where can I find it? I hate to go back to windows explorer unless I have to. You should let us know what will not work with your upgrades before we start them. Had I known Albine would not work I wouldn't have upgraded.

Thanks.

I keep getting a software update for security and stability for Firefox. But it is telling me that two of my add-ons are incompatible and will be disabled. Problem is, I use these add-ons on a regular basis and I need them. I don't want to risk losing them and not being able to get them back. I don't like Explorer at all, but if there is no way around this then I will have to switch back to them which will not make me happy. I really do prefer Firefox because it is by far and away a better product. However, I also need my BitComet downloader and my Divx. What should I do here?

The Firefox 12 s/w update reminder says that the Garmin Lifetime Updater will be disabled when I download the new Firefox 12 and that Firefox will be fixed for this problem at a later date. When is that?

When I install any later version of Firefox than 9.0.1 on my Win 7 Pro 64-bit laptop, the program will not launch the application.

The system process starts loading in the Task Manager and gets up to between 9-15 MB then stalls. My laptop fans starts whirling wildly as if it is overworking. But, the browser application never appears in the Task Manager and the browser, of course, then never actually opens.

When I uninstall and revert back to 9.0.1 it works just fine.

I would like to keep up with later browsers. Any idea what this could be?

Was using FF 15 and had a disk crash so installed a bu disk and it had 9.0.1 installed. After continuously getting the annoying ff pop up windows I decided to update to 16.0.1 - Downloaded and saved the firefox setup 16.0.1 - exited FF and dbl clicked on the install file. It started to extract the archived files and then I get a setup error message:

Sorry Firefox can't be installed. This version of Firefox requires Microsoft Windows xp sp 2 or later

I am using Windows XP professional 2002 w SP3

I installed it as an upgrade from Windows 2000 Professional

On my other drive the one that crashed I had installed FF from 4 or 5 up to 15.01 without any problem and this drive was an exact copy using maxblast software of that drive it except it was a few months old hence only up to ff 9.01

in js I have written following line of code to navigate back , home pages. this code works fine upto version 8 but not working in version 9 and above

<a href="#" onClick="goBack();" >Back to Previous</a> 

function goBack(){
 
 		//Disabled the action of the link after first click to avoid repeated click events-Sreejesh
 		//once the action is compleated It  will be activated by the function 'doCommonLoad' in commonfunctions.js   		
 		
 		objLinks = document.links;
 		alert(objLinks.length);
			for(i=0;i<objLinks.length;i++){
				alert(objLinks[i]);
				if(objLinks[i].onclick.toString().indexOf("goBack")>0){
					objLinks[i].style.color="grey";
					objLinks[i].removeAttribute('onClick');
				}
			}
		
 
    if(taskList == true){
         if (secondFrame == "tasklistframe") {
                    hideFrame("inboxframe");
                    minimizeFrame("tasklistframe");
					
               } else {
                    hideFrame("tasklistframe");
                    minimizeFrame("inboxframe");
					}
				  			 	
            }
   
    // if(twoFrames = false)
	// {
	// maximize('maincontentframe');
	// }
	if(document.getElementById("statusbar").style.display == 'none')
	{
	document.getElementById("statusbar").style.display = 'block';
	}
	document.getElementById("mainMin").style.visibility = "visible"
	
	parent.document.getElementById("hiddenframe").src="hidden.jsp?action=MENU_GO_BACK";
	 }

I've seen much later versions of Firefox than 9.0.1 on other Mac computers lately. Yet whenever I check the "About Firefox" button, it gives the message that "Firefox is up to date". I have a MacPro, Intel Core i5 running OS 10.7.3, 4 GB memory, and 128GB SSD. I wish to find a "list" somewhere of Firefox versions vs. machine and OS's, and am unwilling to blindly download and install 15.0.1 without knowing if it's OK in advance.

If I run firefox remotely on a different machine over a secure connection without using the --no-remote option, it starts locally instead.

Also, if I have a secure connection to a remote machine where firefox is running (without --no-remote), and I start firefox locally, the remote instance paints a window on the screen.

How does that work? Are only X facilities used? Which ones? Also, can someone point me to the files in the source version that implement this functionality, and whether there is a compile-time variable to disable it? A related question - if I build my own version according to the mozilla directions, can I expect it to be as fast as the pre-compiled version?

In the first case, take this example:

  $ ssh -fX remote xterm -ls
  $ firefox &

When I start firefox remotely in this configuration, I expect that it asks X to open a window and X sees that the graphic server is remote and paints a window there. Without firefox knowing about it.

I consider it a trojan horse that firefox should look around to determine what my configuration is. This is exactly what I don't want applications to do.

At the very least - i.e. without running a general inventory - it seems that firefox needs to ask if the graphics server is remote or not, and if so, it has to attempt to start an arbitrary executable (but hopefully only firefox) on the server machine.

That that kind of activism doesn't seem like infringement to others is amazing to me.

on this computer i cannot respond to my emails on my hotmail account. i click on the part of the screen where i suppose to type and nothing shows up. i can type in the subject line but not in the body.

sinds een aantal weken krijg ik een japanse versie van de google homepage op mijn scherm wanneer ik internet opstart, voorheen was deze nog gewoon nederlands... Hoe moet ik instellen dat de pagina weer vertaald wordt in het nederlands?

I am running firefox 9.0.1 on windows xp pro and after I drag and drop a file to upload in gmail, the file cannot be deleted until I close firefox. I'm on a work computer so I can't update to the latest version of FF. This has been asked before but for previous versions of FF. Also the mail has been sent 10 minutes ago and I still can't delete the file. So the newly composed email has been closed
