I want to update to 3.6 from 5, but the update is grayed out and when I try to put the new version into my applications folder it tells me I don't have permission.

  • Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
  • Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
  • Install the new version that you have downloaded.
