I have always enjoyed running Firefox on my pre-intel mac OS 10.4 but the current upgrade I was forced to download did not launch. After trying it several times, I went to you website and manually downloaded the only version (4.0) I saw available which overwrote the one I had. But it won't run on this mac.

Please tell me where I can download a version that will run on my mac.


Thank you

There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

Great, I downloaded the TenFourFox and it runs like a charm. I would have downloaded the 3.6 but it said that the version would only be supported for a little longer.

Thanks so much for you help !!!

The Firefox 3.6.28 version that is offered on that page is the most recent Firefox version that runs on your PPC Mac with OS X 10.4
