I have a OSX Version 10. 5. 7. The firefox I had was working fine, but it kept telling me to update, and it was working slow, I updated it to the newest version, it wouldn't download it unless I REPLACED, the old version, now it is gone, the new one doesn't work, I now have no firefox, I looked around on the forum, but found nothing and tried some suggestions, but I cannot get any version of firefox to open, and I had some serious book marks and passwords remembered, and I am in a bit of serious trouble, can someone tell me what to do?

Hello Bill, yes Firefox 16 is the last Firefox version for your 10.5 intel mac, see in the next article how to regain your version (note that is old and unsupported, but i think you already known that) :

Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.5


thank you

Firefox 16.0.2 is the last version that works on an Intel Mac with the OS X 10.5 operating system.

Another possibility is to install the Firefox 10.0.12esr (BuildID=20130103094221) version that has more security updates, but misses features present in Firefox 16 (BuildID=20121024073032).

Also if you can update to at least OSX 10.6+ (which has been the minimum requirement since Fx 17.0) or newer you can then use the current Firefox including Firefox 31.0
