Impossible to install Firefox on Mac 10.5.8 PowerPC G5, crossed icon
I had FF runs completely OK, but then tried to upgrade to FF9. After download of the FFicon has been crossed, one a dialogbox says that my system does not support this version. I threw this away and downloaded version 6, but it still blocked on the thing and does not open.
How can I get a version of Firefox on my Mac?
Everything else works perfectly.
You have published with an Intel Mac, so you must have another who is Mac PPC. Fix?
From Firefox 4, Mac must have an Intel x 86 processor (G5 is a Mac PPC) and OSX 10.5 or higher.
The good news is that Firefox 3.6.x supports even OSX 10.4 and Mac PPC Mac architecture. The bad news is that the support for Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.
- System requirements: Firefox 3.6.x
- Download Firefox 3.6.x: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

You can try the TenFourFox third-party product that supports the PPC Macs with OSX 10.4.11 and OSX 10.5.8. There are 9 Firefox version TenFourFox . The product is based on versions of Firefox released. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:

Impossible to install firefox, because the race is not an option, only to save it
having bad install on windows vista, when I try and download the option run appears not only to save it
Try this:
- Download the installer of Firefox and save the file to the desktop

I tried everything I know to uninstall the new version of Firefox. I also installed Aurora beta and it had the same behavior, and I managed to uninstall that. I can't open a browser ff to work on it with the help of a large part of your support information. I click the icon, but it does not start on the desktop but the clock running as Task Manager. I have to end task in Task Manager to close it. I can not uninstall and tried the system restore, but this also does not work due to another problem with my antivirus program.
If this is on a Windows computer, see this link from Microsoft;

I installed the app in my applications folder and everything works perfectly. But normally, after you have installed a browser, the installation disk icon that appears on your desktop can be ejected or removed without. Mine is back...
Make sure that Firefox is installed correctly.
Open the DMG file and drag the Firefox program in the folder of the application on your hard drive.
You should not double-click the Firefox application to run from the disk image and drag it out of the DMG file instead. -

Hello, due to the restrictive policy of apple it is unfortunately not possible to put in place and provide independent third-party browsers for idevices.
Mozilla is against bringing the rendering motor & javascript in firefox on iOS, because apple only allows the use of its own webkit in terms for developers - as long as it does, firefox and the ecosystem of the addon can be ported to iOS devices. -
