Hello, I got a notice when I signed in today to upgrade my Firefox. I followed the instructions for my MAC, and when I went to open up the new application, it said the new version o Firefox does not support my MAC version of 10.10.5 I have been using Firefox forever and love it and unfortunately my MAC is very old (2008) and in order to have a newer version on MAC i need to purchase a new one, which I am unable to do at the moment. Is there any way to reload a older version on Firefox for a MAC 10.10.5? I went searching, but was unable to find one.

Thanks so much Jacqui Cipin

Firefox 79.0 and later has required macOS 10.12 at minimum to run so you will need to upgrade to macOS 10.12 or higher to use any more current version of Firefox.

Fx 78.15.0esr is the most current version you can use though it is EOL with no more updates. https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/78.15.0esr/mac/en-US/ other locales at https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/78.15.0esr/mac/

James. Your solution worked perfectly. Thanks so much for the quick response. Sigh, I suppose I may need to invest in a new MAC. But for now this works! Jacqui
