Hi! I've been having some problems with firefox for some days now... first was with Tumblr; feed seem to download but when I try to reblog, post, like or anything it woudn't let me (the pop up window for new post/reblogs would just download Tumblr background image) I contacted with Tumblr support to see if it was a Tumblr-related issue but they told me it must be cause my browser is outdated (Firefox 16) They suggested me to upgrade but being my os a 10.5.8... well you already know the answer. The other problem is Soundcloud worked just fine untill yesterday that it stopped working too (tracks would seem to download but no tracks would play) So.... what can I do to resolve these issues?

Did you check that plugins are installed right in your browser ? or they are updated ?Plugins like Adobe flash are needed to run sounds on the browser .

Any reason that you can't update Mac OSX?

@chandan_baba I have 4 plugins working right now and 2 disabled... working: -flip4mac windows media -quicktime plug in -shockwave flash -unity player I don't know much about plug ins... are one of these might be causing the problems? @the-edmeister I wanted to upgrade some months ago but cant afford to buy the official snow leopard (and first of all I'd like to buy an external drive) and yes, I've watched tutorials about downloading it on piratebay and such but I'm scared I might fail in some step and fuck the computer (it's the only computer I have)
