I recently upgraded my Firefox 13 with a supplied and suggested security update. Since the upgrade I have been unable to send outgoing e-mail from my yahoo account. When I click the new e-mail button, or if I want to reply to a received e-mail. A yellow field telling me a plug in is required to operate in a 32 bit mode. When I click the restart button in the yellow field the e-mail system locks up and I cannot compose an e-mail or reply. Prior to updating firefox I received the same message and when I clicked the restart button the e-mail program restarted in a 32 bit mode without problem.

You may need to start Firefox in 32 bit mode if a plugin (Silverlight?) is needed that only runs in 32 bit mode.

You can use these steps to start Firefox in 32 bit mode:

  1. Close Firefox
  2. Start the Finder and open the Applications folder
  3. Right click or control-click the Firefox.app icon
  4. Select "Get Info"
  5. Select or Deselect "Open in 32-bit mode"
  6. Close the "Firefox Info" window
  7. Restart Firefox
