I wanted to update to Firefox4. I downloaded the app and when I tried to drag the Firefox icon into the Applications I was asked if I want to replace the older version of Firefox. When I clicked "replace" I got the message: the operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items

If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or have other problems with updating to update 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 DMG file to the desktop

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