I tried to switch from Firefox 5 to 8 of Firefox, but a message box indicates that I have insufficient privileges to install. How can I continue?

I received the alert to update Firefox, but during download and try to install, by moving the Firefox to the Applications icon, receive the message "insufficient privileges" box

If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

  • Trash the present application Firefox to do a clean (re-) install
  • Install the new version you downloaded

Your profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you will not lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re) install Firefox.
