Firefox 42.0 glib dependency 1.22 or more is confusing bacause libglib (64) is currently 2.0 and 32-bit is currently 2.41. Which one should I use?
Slackware64, running current system.
41.0 Firefox currently, eager to install firefox 42.0.
I am looking for internet for dependency libraries to install as follows:
Download libraries as .rpm
convert to .tgz
make a soft package,
install with installpkg.
a disappointment: go to the download page, and it said I seem to be running an old version of Firefox and offers a download button.
It does not say which version it has detected, I had, nor it does not say what architecture it detected, nor the ability to change the target to download if I download on another machine. Just a download button green big without telling me what version or the new firefox cpu I download is for. Can they make it worse? I need to know if they are shoving me a 32 or 64 bit program and what architecture they detected until I push the download button.

Firefox won't work at all without the following libraries or packages:
GTK+ 2.18 or higher GLib 2.22 or higher Pango 1.14 or higher X.Org 1.0 or higher (1.7 or higher is recommended) libstdc++ 4.3 or higher
For optimal functionality, we recommend that libraries or the following packages:
NetworkManager 0.7 or higher DBus 1.0 or higher HAL 0.5.8 or higher GNOME 2.16 or higher
Rather then clicking the Green download on mozilla.org button go to the systems & languages link below because it lists both 32-bit and 64-bit Linux builds in all locales.
The GLib requirement has not changed, so if you use 42.0 Firefox 64-bit www.mozilla.org/firefox/all so it should work the same as the 64-bit Fx 41.0.x.
A heads for the next version of 43.0 Firefox, Linux users will have GTK 3.4 or more 2.18 + was minimal until til 42.0 Fx.

I just signed up for DocQ on ramp to scan and complete the forms. registration and sign seemed to work OK
but then, I had the support not your browser window advising me to download Firefox3, I seem to have
23, so I'm a little in the dark! Best regards; PaulThe DocQ site doesn't seem to work with Firefox 18 or lower (give a warning at the top of Firefox 19 bar)
You can override the user agent for a domain to view a specific version of Firefox XX (in this case 18 of Firefox).
- Name: general.useragent.override.xxxx.com (replace xxxx.com with real estate)
- Value: (rv: |) Firefox /) \d {2} #$1XX (replace XX with the version of Firefox required)
You can open the topic: config page and create a new pref to string via the context menu
- Name: general.useragent.override.docq.com
- Value: (rv: |) Firefox /) \d {2} #$118
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can alternate substitutions specific site power via the general.useragent.site_specific_overrides preference.
If the site is still not working properly, then you can try the portable version of Firefox 18.
The portable version comes with its own profile folder and does not interfere with the currently installed version.

Nice day! I'm Ian Abaya, and I would like to learn more about the Mozilla Firefox shortcuts site internal server error. I'm already downloading my entry for the contest this afternoon, but after I clicked 'next', the server went down, and I couldn't access the site anymore. I am aware that the competition is until 23:59 on 31 July in PST, when I was downloading my entry it was only 03:00 PST on July 31. I'm afraid that the server would be down to the date of the deadline and I won't be able to present my video entry that I and my team have been very passionate and spent our time, effort, and resources to produce from now, it is already 04:58 31 July in PST. I hope that there is something that can be done on it, thank you and I hope to hear from you soon!
(link added to the site which is currently down - c threshold)
Hello, ianabaya.
We are sorry to hear that you are encoutering problems download your registration form on the site of Firefox shortcuts.
Unfortunately, the site was a few hours due to a power failure (as can be read on our official Twitter account: https://twitter.com/FirefoxFlicks/status/362585439707734017 ) and some candidates for the nomination so were not able to upload their entries during this time.
Fortunately, the Firefox site shortcuts is now back up and running and always accepts applications all downloaded until tonight (July 31) at 23:59 the South Pacific time.
I hope that this might clear up some confusion and wish you the best of luck in the contest. This would be the answer to your question, please mark it as such, so our automated system can close the message.
I thank you for your interest in Mozilla and have a nice day!

I have tried everything I can think of, even to reinstall windows to correct the problem. Nothing solves the problem. It all started after clearing the cache of the browser. Text appears at least 15 seconds after I start typing, pages take a long time to load, if I click on something, it takes 15 seconds to show any response. If Firefox is on the screen, the mouse moves more slowly. Everything worked perfectly right, until I deleted the browser cache. Anyone have any ideas?

When I generate a password in last Pass a window of MaskMe asking if I would like to generate a password. I was used to using the last past MaskMe was suggested by Firefox, so I added it. Is - this redundant? Is it better or should I continue to use last Pass? With all the concerns about security, I want to do the best.
Thank youHey - I'm Abine, the company that makes the MaskMe. Micro got it right, but I thought I would chime too.
LastPass and MaskMe have very similar characteristics when it comes to the storage account, auto-fill, and passwords. We have also enhanced security where the company cannot see or access your master password because it is stored locally on your device.
However, MaskMe has a set of features more wide that goes beyond the management of the accounts and connections to let you use the web without giving your real contact information.
- It allows to create aliases (or hidden) email addresses that advances in your actual Inbox, allowing you to block spam in 1 click
- You can also create alias phone and credit card numbers, so you can buy things or give your telephone number without dealers or traders who your real info
It all comes down to what you're looking for. LastPass is great at what he does, and so is MaskMe, but MaskMe covers several areas of privacy online if you are worried about it.

As soon as I opened the Firefox Start Page, all my favorites have been posted on the left side. I accidentally hit something, and now all my favorites have disappeared.
For your safety, you must do a lot of software updates. You may be holding back for some reason any. Let us know what it is because there may be a fix or workaround now.
To update to the 19 of Firefox, you can use the "Check for updates" button here:
Menu help > about Firefox
To update your Adobe PDF and Shockwave Flash plugins and check for other obsolete plugins, you can use this page:

I know it's tedious, but don't let slip too long or you might get up to have to rebuild everything (the curse of your lack of backups, and if you do regular backups).

Firefox 4 is unable to install add-ons. After download the 'installation' bar stuck in the beginning and never ends.
After that I updated to 3.6, FF4 to see any of my previous modules.
When you try to install the new, I see no error dialog box or message, just install bar is not going anywhere.To anyone out there yet with this issue.
The solution that worked for me was to create a new user profile.
Give it a try, if it works you can just move your settings and other things more.

I change the settings of firefox and accidentally closed on the display tab, which displays the files, settings, and tools. I can't see how to reset it back to default where I can see those?
You can hide the menu bar in Firefox 3.6 on Windows, on "view > toolbars" or via the contextual right click menu on a toolbar.
Press in and hold the Alt key to display the menu bar.
Go to "view > toolbars", right click on the menu bar, or press Alt + V T to select the toolbars to show or hide. -
I tried to downgrade to Firefox 40 41 is disable my important modules. I need to get instructions. I'm so confused. Please help me.
If your Firefox 41 said that an extension is disabled because it is not signed or verified, there is a parameter so that it can run anyway. Maybe it's not the problem you are having, but I give the info to the case where.
(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.
(2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the xpi and make a pause so that the list is filtered
(3) if the preference xpinstall.signatures.required is in bold and "user set" true, double-click on it to set it to false

I have Firefox for my laptop and wanted to use it on my phone Android mobile phone. When I saw under permissions that the application can access photos and videos and can take photos and videos that seemed very odd. Does anyone know of a work around to keep the app to take photos and videos without my permission? I do not want to uninstall but can allow the intrusion of privacy.
We have a help article about why this permission is here: how Firefox for Android uses the requested permissions?
Specifically, some sites may give you the option to attach or embed an image directly from the camera instead of going through a folder of pictures already taken. In order to support this feature, Firefox requires permissions to access the camera. However, according to this article, Firefox will ask your permission before leaving the site to use the camera. I don't think I have ever seen this in action.
