• Firefox updates not - although I have OSX 10.5.8 it keeps saying I have too old a BONE. The auto-update for Firefox is grayed out. How can I update?

  I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X 10.5.8. I get messages from Google that Firefox is an older version and need to update - so I went to the site of Firefox and the message said that "Unfortunately the latest version of Firefox is not compatible with the operating system of your computer. Learn more. "When I click on learn more, it is said that Firefox only works with OS X 10.5 and 10.6... the auto-Setup box to update for Firefox is grayed out and not clickable in Firefox preferences, there is no manual download I can find - how can I make Firefox recognize my OS and allow me to upgrade? Thank you very much.

  PPC Macs are not compatible with Firefox 4.0 and later versions.

  For older Mac that are not supported in Firefox 4 / 5 / 6, try TenFourFox of PowerPC running Mac 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.

• How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

  How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

  It is not in the file menu or tools. I get nothing when searching for help. FF still knows how to do it, say to update extensions.

  I know that I can do by saving my session, coming out, reboot and restore the session but is there a single command to do this?

  Thank you. -David

  I have attached a screenshot showing how to select restore automatic session just above the setting of the Home Page where it says "When Firefox starts".

  With this set, you can restart Firefox manually out using the menu-

  • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
  • (menu bar) File > Exit

  -and then restart Firefox.

  If you want a real reboot with a click of button, you can check something on the Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

• How can I get FireFox to work on the first Google ChromeBook addition? He repeats to me upgrade and when I do it says does not support?

  How can I get FireFox to work on the first version of the Google ChromeBook? Everytime I open it it said to update or upgrade to FireFox and make it your main page. So I downloaded it and it's open once it is installed, but then a message appears that says "can't stand" search for an application that supports FireFox and its software, or something of the sort. I was sitting here with a full battery when I started and now it is dead... and I still don't have FireFox on my ChromeBook.

  What do I do now or how do I get it to work? And if it just simply won't work on a CHromeBook then they need to have that riht out in the open.
  

  Hello

  I had a peek in this and was informed that Firefox does not work on Chrome OS.

  It is designed and done a little differently from the likes of Windows and Linux and will not support another browser being installed.

• Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it could be highlighted; Since I have firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

  All the above say:
  Before, when I typed an http address in my hotmail account, it could be highlighted; Since I have firefox, it is NOT highlighted. How can I get firefox to highlight an http address when I type it?

  Do you mean to create a clickable hyperlink while composing a new mail?

  Just above the text box that allows you to enter the text of the message, there usually a bar of buttons with buttons to add updated text in shape like the bold and italic.
  
  This toolbar can also have a button to activate a clickable hyperlink text link (look for a string like button).
  
  You can select the text and click on this button to activate the link into a clickable hyperlink.
  
  If you can not find the button, and then move all the to check the ToolTip of each.
