Fóram Tacaíochta Firefox

I tried updating to the new version but it isn't compatible with my old OS - Mac 10.4. The send, forward and reply buttons aren't on the screen anymore. So, although I can compose a document and attach a file there's no way to send it. I am currently out of work so purchasing a new computer to solve the email problem isn't an option. I need need to be able to contact employers and contacts.

I have no SEND button in my email following 2 weeks of degradation due to Yahoo universal upgrades. The Firefox browser I am currently using is 3.6.28, was installed by a ConnecTech technician after the browser crashed about 1 month ago. Will Tenfourfox work on my operating system and if so how do I install it? Thanks for your help. Dean Detrick

Currently running firefox 3.0.4. I downloaded 3.6.28 successfully. When I tried to install it by sliding the firefox icon over onto the applications icon I got a message saying an item named firefox already exists and do I want to replace it with the newer one I am moving. I clicked "replace." Then I get a message saying that the operation cannot be completed because I do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items. How can I complete this install?

When I try to remove a single bookmark: I click on the blue star, the box comes down with " Delete/remove this bookmark, I click on that, but nothing happens. So I tried following the directions for removing several bookmarks, but did not see the "show all bookmarks" option. I am using a Mac OS X 10.4.11, could the problem be that my operating system is too old? If so, can anyone suggest other methods I can try? Thank you!

I've been searching all evening and trying various options, but don't think I have this figured out, and wonder if anyone could help. I have an AM appt. to bring my computer in for an upgrade and would like to have my bookmarks archived first. (Mac OS10.4 / Firefox 3.6.25)

I found this info in another thread, and was able to follow it almost all the way through, save for the last part:

"Start at the USERS FOLDER (the one with your name on it) then LIBRARY then APPLICATION SUPPORT then FIREFOX then PROFILES then the folder .DEFAULT you should see files labelled BOOKMARKS and a folder labelled BOOKMARKBACKUPS you will see .html and .json files within this. Select an .html file and an appropriate date, open it in Firefox to check. Now go back to Firefox and click through bookmarks-organise bookmarks-restore-choose file and search for and select the file you just found."

When I click on the BOOKMARKBACKUPS folder, there are only .json files inside - no html. There was one bookmark.html file on the same level as the BOOKMARKBACKUPS folder, and when I opened it, it looked like an info page.

I did highlight, in turn, each of the .json files and under FILE, chose ARCHIVE and moved them to my external harddrive, but I'm not sure if I truly backed up the bookmarks. Appreciate any help.

Cheers, Debra

I have an iBook G4. After downloading the new version of Firefox it will not run so I have to continue with the older version. I continuously get messages telling me my version is out of date which is getting annoying. Apple want me to buy a new computer at about £1000 which I can't afford.even if I could, the old programmes won't run on new processors so I would the have to buy them all again. not a good AD for apple? Greed rears it's ugly head!!!.

                            Thanks in anticipation.      Regards Geoff Downend.

Each time I open a fresh Firefox page, I get a message popping up 4 times informing me that a security certificate for a cashback set-up that no longer exists, has expired. How do I get rid of it?

This has been happening for some time on our own website - the site text loads, as does the first pic - but halfway through the second (always at that point), the screen goes blank, and the info bar says it is transferring to, or waiting for, either of these two sites above, but never the bars never get more than halfway. It makes no difference whether I try to load the website from scratch or from our bookmarks menu.

It's now started again, on the John Lewis site, when I try to move from a product to the product details. I've checked for Firefox updates for Mac OS X, but apparently none are available, even though I get notes that I'm using an outdated version.

I log into my Gmail using a nav button on FIrefox entitled 'Google Mail - Inbox'. Whether it appeared there automatically or I put it there, it has worked fine. Today, it doesn't, I instead get an odd Google menu which shows only the text of (what I assume is) my Google account. Can one attach a file with a screenshot here, can't see any attachment facility? They say it may be caused by a broken or slow browser connection, but then Google do tend to clutch at straws. I need to work out whether the problem is Google, Firefox or both.

Can't open the 'Troubleshooting info' box below. I am on a Mac PPC G5 on Firefox 3.6.28, which Firefox keeps threatening to pull but hasn't done so yet.

When I open my email window to check for emails, I lost all mailbox folders on the left side of the window. e.g. inbox, sent, spam, trash, etc. How do I get them back.

You've run me ragged to simply get to a place to make a non-automated comment ... .... Your update inquiry software should do a CPU config check!! This old Duel G4 PPC Mac w/OS 10.4.11 is non-Intel and it is not supported for current Intel based plugins, but it has the latest upgrades that were available until support was scratched! IT REALLY IS ANNOYING that you do not check the processor config before issuing your update notice! I'm sure that I'm not alone in this situation. I know yes maybe for 1% ?? of your user base you feel may not be worth an hour's coding! I disagree! Please fix! Elegance is always preferable to arrogance!

I want to send emails to all the people in a folder without having to look up each person's email and add them to a contacts list. I do have a contacts list that I could move all of them to.

How can I accomplish this task with the least amount of effort?

I am doing this from my old desktop Mac, but do have Firefox on a much newer iMac laptop.

I have a Mac mentor who gave me an old iBook out of the kindness of her heart and I've enjoyed using it very much. I can't afford to buy a new laptop.

I just changed to Broadband so I can get faster reception and watch videos and listen to audios on the Net. I want to copy videos from Utube, but I don't get continuous reception, but only longer segments than before with a jerk in between. There is a notice in the upper right hand corner of the screen that asks me to upgrade plug ins, but I fear that my 10.4.11 operating system will not support the upgrade. Do I have to and can I upgrade my operating system on an old iBook that was conceived in the early stages of Mac laptops or can I just upgrade the plug ins that I have?  I'm afraid to change what is there. Can someone help me do this myself without bothering my busy mentor with something that I ought to be able to do myself?

Yes, I access the web, but not google since this afternoon. What is the matter with fire fox suddenly not accessing google anymore? As this is vital, fire fox is of no use if it cannot google search.
