When I try to update I get a message that I don't have privileges. Also, Firefox has been crashing. I was at Version 4 today, but after I tried to update, I had Version 3.0.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop

  • Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
  • Install the new version that you have downloaded
