If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or if you have problems with updating 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
- Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
- Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
thanks for the reply and help...will try it so much trouble downloading on this mac.... I am trying FF because somehow my Flash and Click are allowing me to google and bring up Bridge Doctor but not load and open it. It opens as yellow page with tiny BD logo in left corner. What is wierd is that it is ok on Guest account where no changes from original purchase programs were made. I want them back/don't know what they were as had to upload higher version of Flash..no choice.. Oi Veh
