When I move this version (3.6.12) to the applications folder on a new i-Mac, I get the message that I "do not have permission to access some of the items." I do have read and write rights on all applications and hard drive. Any ideas?

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