I can't update Firefox. It seems stuck on downloading 3.6.4. I have an IMac G5 with OS 10.5.6

I get a message that Firefox can't install an update so will download the entire file. A screen appears with an installation progress bar which never goes away.

For older Macs (PPC) that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0+ versions, try TenFourFox. http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/

Or stay with Firefox 3.6.* where 3.6.24 can be found at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

Firefox 3.6.* and earlier used to come with Intel and PPC versions in download, but now as of Firefox 4.0 and newer (including 8.0) the PPC version was replaced with 64-bit version.

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.

Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop.
You can find the latest Firefox release here:

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

Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
