I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I down loaded the firefox program. it opens correctly to the search page. when I try to browse the internet after typing in my search, the next screen that comes up says unable to connect to the internet. I can browse using windows explorer with no problems so I know I have an internet connection. I made sure the fire wall will allow the fire fox program. At this point I am at a lost. If it matters I am running the new windows 8 64 bit. If anyone has any suggestion please let me know.

My system tells me that I am using version 18.0.1 and that I am on the 'Release update channel' - is this the normal / standard update process channel appropriate for non 'techy' users ?

Operating system is Windows Vista Business

I am using firefox on my new PC with WIN 7. But I will also use firefox on my old PC with WIN 2000. Where can I download a usable firefox, if possible ?

when I try to sign in to my hotmail account I only receive a notification to download an app that will allow me to use remote devices. I do not have any and only want to access my hotmail E-mail. How do I get to the sign in portion for E-mail?

When closing a program I was working in, a little window came from behind it saying:

(in Dutch, but I’ve translated for you):

Firefox 3.0.19 ready to install

Firefox has downloaded and verified an important update. Click on the link below for meer details.

Update: Firefox 3.0.19 Details

Click on Restart Firefox now to install the update.

Click on Not now to close this dialogue window and to continue to work. Firefox shall install the update the next time you start.

Now I’ve looked for 3.0.19 on Google and found that this version is a couple of years old. So I am wondering if this update message really comes from you. Even stranger is when I tick on Details because then the following message from you appears:

Hmmm, we’re having trouble finding that one. We hate to say it, but we couldn’t find that page or file you’re looking for.

   	* If you typed in the address, try double-checking the spelling.
   	* If you followed a link from somewhere, please let us know at webmaster at mozilla dot com. Be sure to tell us where you came 	from and what you were looking for, and we’ll do our best to fix it.

If you’re really stuck, here are some other options:

   	* Were you looking for information about Firefox?
   	* Or maybe our email program, Thunderbird?
   	* It might just be best to start at www.mozilla.org.

Can you let me know asap if I can have the update installed or if something bad is going on.

I am working on an iMac with OS X 10.6.8. The Firefox version I have is 3.0.9 and I must say I don’t use Firefox very often, about once a month. Just today I did and I did not definitely close it yet and then this window appeared.

I am unable to download statements from internet banking site. When I try to download, a new tab is opened, but there is no statement available. I got an error message when I first tried this today, but it disappeared before I could write down the exact message. I tried logging out of the banking and logging back in again, but there was no error message the second time. I have the latest version of Adobe and have updated to the latest version of Firefox. I am running OS X 10.8.3 on my iMac. I have never experienced this problem before, and my internet banking site is unable to solve the problem. Any suggestions please?

when i get a software update notice i click on the update button. a bar graph appears with a moving line of dashes. under the bar graph is a note saying connecting to the update server.... that never happens.

so i have been unable to install any updates even though at least 4 are available.

I really like Mozilla, but getting help is impossible. I had to restore my computer by to factory settings. I had all my bookmarks plus a lot of addons and plugins from Mozilla. Is there anyone I can get help from by directly corresponding thru email. I could wait days for an answer thru the forum if I could even find it once I have submitted my question. For me this is urgent.

When trying to run videos on fox news my firefox locks up in buffering cycle. My computer runs you tube just fine but can not figure out how to stop this buffering issue.

I had version 8.3 of firefox installed on my windows computer. I had my computer worked on and they updated my firefox browser to version 20. I had imacros addon installed on version 8.3., when they installed version 20 on my computer I tried to install imacros addon but it says it is installed but it doesn't show up. How can I install it?

I had to do an erase & reinstall on my Mac to clear up some problems. Fortunately, I have a valid Time Machine backup. How can I restore my bookmarks and extensions from the backup and avoid having to laboriously re-install them one-by-one? Thanks.

I am currently running Vista, 32-bit. I am considering upgrading to Windows 7. I ran the Upgrade Advisor Report and it says "Mozilla Firefox 20.0.1 Must be uninstalled before upgrading to Windows 7. You will not be able to reinstall it after upgrading to Windows 7." This appears to be inaccurate info, based on the Firefox website, but I want to verify what I should do before beginning the upgrade. Leave Firefox installed and in place when I upgrade, or uninstall and then re-install after the upgrade?

I was trying the Aurora version of Firefox and would like to switch back to the release version. I've tried changing the value in app.update.channel in about:config and the channel-prefs.js file. The version will still not change. And yes, I've restarted my browser.

We have been prompted several times to update our Firefox software (19.02). When we click to update, a screen appears saying downloading is in progress, but other than rotating blue and white stripe, nothing happens. It can spin for many minutes, with no indication a connection has been made or that any download actually is in progress. There is no "allow" or "install." It doesn't get that far.

I have firefox version 20 32 bit and noticed on java that there is 64 bit browsers and I like firefox so I was hoping there is a 64 bit version of firefox for windows. Also what is the firefox nightly? I dont wana download and install something that I dont know. Thank you for your time.
