Firefox 22.0 can run on Mac 10.5.8 (Leopard) since it has code i386?
Firefox 22.0 has 1386 code (such as x86_64), and the only difference in Info.plist is basically being instead of 10.5 10.6 as in Firefox 16.0.2 LSMinimumSystemVersion. So why can't Firefox 22.0 running Leopard (10.5.8) with simple changes to the Version numbers?
I have a Mac Mini Intel core duo under Leopard and a core 2 duo Intel Macbook Pro under Snow Leopard. I would like to run 22.0 Firefox on my Mac Mini, as I do on my Macbook Pro, but with the i386 code, that is built into Firefox 22.0. Currently I can only run Firefox on my Mac-Mini 16.0.2, also using the i386 code.
Is it possible for to upgrade you to a new operating system? 16 of Firefox is more than 3 years and has many security problems that have been fixed in newer versions.
If you are unable to upgrade to a new operating system, I'm not sure that it is really possible to do anything. Ordinarilly, I would recommend the engagement of web browsers, but Chrome requires snow leopard or later version as well and the version of safari that came with leopard will be obsolete at this point as well.
While you can try to change the LSMinimumSystemVersion info.plist file, it probably won't work, because the newer versions of firefox use apple of new features into the operating system.
In addition, you must pass the version of firefox on your macbook to the latest version (38), who will work with snow leopard. You can download it from http://mozilla.org/firefox.

4 Sims can run on Mac Mini?
Hello
IM planning to buy a mid-range mac mini (2.6 ghz). We want to play sims 4 using this computer. We discovered at amazon.com that the requirements are the following:
MAC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
MINIMUM SPECIFICATIONS
OS: Mac OS X 10.7.5 (Lion)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 Ghz processor or higher
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce 320 M, 9600 M, 9400 M, ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro or better. Video RAM of 256 MB or higher.
MEMORY: 4 GB of RAM
HARD DISK: 10 GB hard driveRECOMMENDED SPECIFICATIONS
OS: Mac OS X 10.9 or later
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5 or better
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 650 or better
MEMORY: 8 GB RAM
HARD DISK: 10 GB hard driveHello
In order to not bore you with the "technical gibberish:
The low-end and mid-range Mac mini will run fine on the graphic side, if not the best, because Mac is not considered for game machines.
Indeed, your best bet is to go for the mid-range Mac Mini for all other requirements, If you are ok to wait the usual queue of the application time load. If you want much faster load times, you should (if your budget allows) will in addition to the fusion drive option, because it will increase the overall longevity of your machine in terms of speed.
See you soon

I have some how disabled the Task Manager in my windows software and have not been able to allow him and everytime I try I get a message that says that the Task Manager disabled by the administrator, and when I search the Task Manager I get a message that says file not found. How can I get the Task Manager enabled again.
If it is a stand-alone machine and is not part of a domain and that you are the administrator, it is possible that you see signs of a malware infection.
Tools like Regedit or MsConfig, work for you?

I've updated to Firefox 11 and now I can't open the PDFs Online. This has happened on more than 1 computer, using the two OS 10.6.8 and OS 7.0 and on more than one Web site. I tried to uncheck "block pop-up windows" in preferences, but which did not help.
When I use Safari to open the same file to pdf, they open fine. Everything worked fine with my Firefox until I did the upgrade.I prefer to continue to use Firefox, but I can't understand the root of the problem.
Has anyone else had this happen as well?
Thank you, gentlemen, to find a "solution" to this particular behavior of Firefox. It is really curious that even if the screen is blank, you can indeed save the .pdf Ghost and then open the saved file to view. What is amazing to me is that this issue does not seem to be what makes the hit parade of the problems currently experienced Mozilla. Not everyone will be willing to do a research project extended rather than leave the ship for Safari, etc..

Why Firefox has disabled the only version of Flash (10.1.53.64) my computer can use? (Mac PowerPC G5) Help!
Your computer hardware has arrived at the stage where most of the software needs resources your machine cannot provide because it's too old. You have a few choices.
- Get new hardware that can handle the latest software
- Use a different operating system, like Linux (which is free)
I rehabilitated an old G5 recently and it runs very well in the latest Firefox. I put Lubuntu on the machine instead the MacOS. Lubuntu (pronounced Loo-boon-two) is sort of a Ubuntu lite - a user-friendly version of Linux. There are many applications of your choice, and everything is free.
You can also use the Ubuntu greediest in resources and a little more user-friendly, also free, but you can be more pleased with the performance of Lubuntu instead.
The PowerPC, I did this on was one of the old blue Bondi ones. Firefox 8 had no problem to start on it at all and has all necessary plug-ins for video, audio, etc... I gave him a church and it works well for them.
You can download older versions of Firefox, but you'll just open to security problems if you do.
FYI: The Mac operating system is based on Linux.

Y at - it a Firefox update, I can use with Power Mac G5 (model 11.2)?
I have a happy Firefox user for years and that you have installed the recommended updates on all 3 computers I use daily regularly. My Home Office is a Power Mac G5, 11.2, the model with a PowerPC G5 (1.1) processor 2.3 GHz speed. While this computer is old, it then the screen is beautiful and there is no problems with the tasks I use it for. I want to continue to use Firefox as my default browser. Is there an updated version, that I can use?
You are completely up to date.
Versions of Firefox 4 and later do not run a Mac PowerPC. Firefox 4 and later requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

Then I answered a command prompt (by running Firefox 3.6 on my powermac) to download and install Firefox 4. Great! Well, install and replace 3.6 went well, but trying to open Firefox 4 there is a message saying that the material he has not supported. OK fine. But now I don't have firefox. Where can I find 3.6.16 to install?
The beta of Firefox 4 a few months ago DID run, so it's curious.
Thank you

XP SP1 and SP3 are mentioned, but I can run latest Firefox on XP SP2?
I run XP SP2 and not load XP SP3. I run Firefox 3.6.22 because Roboform fooled me with a lie. When I bought Roboform, I was "guaranteed all updates AND upgrades for LIFE", but when Firefox 3.6, there was an apparent RoboForm complicity so that new versions of Roboform have been blocked from working in Firefox 3.6 (at the same time, of course, removed Firefox browser Firefox password management) , and clients that Roboform had guaranteed 'upgrades for life' were NOT excluded in to avoid the breaking of Roboform promise/warranty for them.
I will switch to Linux, but I use LastPass (instead of Roboform) up there. I'll never pay for Roboform a penny, and I always post my experience with their dishonesty whenever the forum is conducive.
I can switch browsers, but I remain all too quickly with Firefox if you can tell me what version of Firefox will work CORRECTLY with XP SP2 (and be maintained properly)? A link to it would be helpful.
Thank you

The last PPC compatible version which run on your OS should be Acro 9, but v8 really works on 10.5.8 (still have it on my old MacBook in 2006 with the same OSX) and everything should also provide a PPC environment only.
