I try to download firefox. After completion, the firefox icon is crossed out and when I double click, I get a message saying the architecture does not support this application. I have a g4 mac laptop with 10.5.8. Any suggestions?

The latest 9.0.1 version is not compatible with your ppc mac os. Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' and require at least OS X 10.5 and '''an Intel Mac'''. see : [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/9.0.1/system-requirements/ Firefox 9 System Requirements] '''The latest supported version for your os is 3.6.25''' , you can download it from: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html see : [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6/system-requirements/ Firefox 3.6 System Requirements] [For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, if you like, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8] http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/ https://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported thank you Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem.
