Firefox Community Forum

I can't get my Firefox icon to go to my desktop and become active. I also cannot uninstall Mozilla - it just allows me to attempt to repair it. My icon also shows Firefox 2 for some reason.

Resolved Update: apparently cat cannot write to /etc. Resolved by using:

sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources <<eof types: deb uris: https: packages.mozilla.org apt suites: mozilla components: main signed-by: etc keyrings packages.mozilla.org.asc eof p></eof>

The instructions need updating!

_________________original problem (in case some one else needs the information)

I am following the instructions in section "Install Firefox from Mozilla Repository (Recommended)" at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/run-firefox-chromeos At step 4 I am receiving a permission denied error: "-bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources: Permission denied" I am not sure how to resolve or continue.

Last command and output:

username@penguin:~ cat <<EOF > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources Types: deb URIs: https://packages.mozilla.org/apt Suites: mozilla Components: main Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc EOF -bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources: Permission denied

bold textI downloaded fire fox but don't see it listed with my other browsers, why? i downloaded fire fox but it's not listed among my browsers, why?

As my title says i cant move Firefox from desktop because it is *the* browser file not a shortcut, and every time i try to move it to any different folder it just creates a shortcut in said folder. I asked Copilot how to reinstall it, set it in actual search mode so i could have 100% reliable steps, nothing worked! >:ε

so im asking yall if there is a way to fix it, thanks in advance

Dear Sirs! I've been trying to install FF in several ways. Using installer.exe and setup150.exe. I started these files from same disk as the system (C), Temp folder empty and unlocked for read\write, located where it should be C-user-appdata-local-temp. I started files as administrator. Each time the setup fails with system notice like on the picture attached. It says "can not find specified file"

My notebook is very old, but it runs Win 10 OK, Chrome is OK also

Please help!

The latest version of Firefox (installed today) just crashes when trying to open any tab and will not reload anything. How can I reload the last working version? Kind regards Stephen.

I don't think the install finished correctly I am sending this from Chrome.

Kind regards

I can't install Mozilla VPN on MacOS 10.15.8. The installation programm tell me to ask for help to the editor of the VPN... I'm afraid that it's possible there is NO version available for my old machine... Am- I right ?

Since a few days I'm unable to download or re-install Firefox on my laptop. This follows performance problems which I wanted to solve by uninstalling / reinstalling the browser. The installing process ultimately times out.

Hello I have had Mozilla firefox for yrs and love it. I have Proton VPN too. I just saw your note to update to mozilla VPN. I tried to do it but message said 'you already have mozilla" , 'do you wnat to replace?" The amazing to me as I would think this the questions come up to numerous people who are trying to replace it Or rather get your VPN. One other question since I have no proton VPN for Rob several years and get your VPN will they was a clash or cause the crash problems? James Elbaor MD [edited email from community support forum] TY
