I have a Mac Power PC with 10.5.8 OS on it and this last updated to Firefox 7.0.1 won't run except on with an intel processor. There should have been a safeguard so it wouldn't updated, now I can't find an older version to download. I access my medical stuff thru Firefox only and now I'm screwed. Am disabled and I can't go buy a new computer. Can anyone get me to a working link for the earlier version, I think it 6.0.2, have been thru so many sites I'm not sure. I really need some help here.

Firefox 3.6.x is the last version of Firefox which supports PPC Macs, get it here:

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6 /7, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 .

I have been using the unofficial port of FF for 10.4 and 10.5 PPC called TenFourFox on my old G4 Quicksilver running 10.4 for a while now, they are up to date with FF7, but since 6.0 they have blocked the Flash plugin since Adobe dropped PPC support several releases ago and it has many "never going to be fixed" security holes, though WebM video plays ok. http://www.tenfourfox.com/ Dev blog: http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/

Just join the Youtube the HTML5 beta https://www.youtube.com/html5 And add marinos35's Youtube WebM search plugin http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?name=Youtube+WebM

Thanks all the other ones I tried to download wouldn't work, I got something called TenForFox and couldn't get it out of the download folder. Now I'll put this in the dock and change preferences so it doesn't update.

Thanks and I'll keep the email in case something happens again. noknots

I downloaded Firefox 10.3.25 I think it was and put in Apps folder. Then went and manually deleted cache and it still won't open, it says Firefox not responding and the wheel goes round and round for 5 minutes.

Any other ideas, I don't want to contact tech to come at $95 an hour. Firefox really screwed over us without putting a notice that this updated will not work unless you have Intel processor and it should never have downloaded.

Other apps like that always tell you.
