Wtf? I came home tonight, opened my old dependable FF 3.6.28, and discovered FF is busy downloading FF 11! I didn’t ask for that!
I went to Tools/Options/Advanced and unclicked the Automatically Check for Updates box. I then closed FF and restarted the computer. But every time I re-open FF the damned thing starts downloading FF 11 again! How do I stop it? Or am I doomed to live with Chrome the rest of my life?
After downloading and installing the 9.0.1. version from the link found here, DO NOT go to Help/About to check the current version because the default value is checked to automatically download the latest version, which throws you into the loop of being forced to upgrade to 11. If you want to keep version 9.0.1 go to options/options/advanced and click the Update Tab. Then uncheck “Automatically check for updates to: Firefox and Add-ons. Click OK and restart Firefox.
Yes,you are right,if you don’t want to upgrade to latest version,please disable auto update.
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/10.0.2/releasenotes/
mozilla listed issues of resolved/ yet to be resolved issues for v10.0.2
don’t quite feel like they’ve covered all bases yet, but there’s a source to submit your own experienced issues [right side-bar of page, decently user friendly]
FF10.0.2 still has the same issues. constant freezing.
window goes white / cursor busy / no CPU usage spike in TskMngr / upon initial killTask resumes as normal
really annoying considering it happens while even scrolling through google results.
Been raving fan of FF for years, and this is the first disappointment, so I do hope they fix this in upcoming versions.
Not sure about the ppl with the whole PC going down from FF freezing up, sounds a bit much.
Glad I found this, will rollback to v9.0.1 in the AM. thanks for teh post.
sn// desopa has got to be one of the best add-ons for u.s. users. similar suggestions welcome c:
Mozilla FF 10 is just stupid.When i updated with newer version 10,my favourite add on ant video downloader stopped working. I hope mozilla team will be working to make compatible ant video downloader for 10th version.
now,i returned back with version 9.I hope i will not face this type of problem in future.
You should download the latest ant video downloader 2.4.6.2 for firefox,it can work with firefox 10.
How can one stop FF from asking/demanding you to upgrade to 10.0.02 ?
I am sick and tired of that annoying pop up window!?
Please help.
I will not go to 10 as i see to many complaints about it.
You can configure your Firefox to disable automatic updating
We have been using Firefox since it’s original release. I must admit, this latest version has caused me major problems. I have disabled all extension, add-on’s and plug-ins. It will still freeze. So I have switched to Chrome, and it’s not locked on my once, yet. I look forward for the Version 11 hopefully it will fix some of these bugs, as I do like Mozilla Firefox but it’s causing to many hard starts.
I am trying to re-download Firefox v9 but it keeps looping me around in circles, over and over between these 2 links:
http://www.top10download.com/free/firefox-browser
http://www.top10download.com/firefox-9-0
After removing the horrid FF v10, I downloaded this on Friday. Somehow the darn thing FORCED an upgrade back to v10 on me! I did NOT click on any of their prompts to the upgrade, yet it did this anyway! GRRR!!!
HELP & Thanks!
Add to above:
I needed to say the following when I said your site keeps “looping” me between 2 links:
When I used your FF v9 download on Friday it worked. Today it will not work at all… it will NOT let me download v9… or any other version for that matter.
What is wrong?
Darn. I already removed FFv10. Guess I have no choice but to put it back in. Groan!!!
Please help ASAP!
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
I’d posted it earlier but I guess you missed it, these are the official links for earlier versions.
You shouldn’t have any more trouble after this Julia (:
Chrome–It’s not quite as good—but for now its’ more reliable.
Download firefox 9 here.
Or go to the top of this page,you will see the download link.
Why does 10 suck so much Yoyo? Nobody seems to be adressing that question?!
New version has more new features with more bugs as a sacrifice.
Yoyo, Thanks for the actual link that starts the download!
Don’t know why I was locked in a never-ending loop of “downloads” that would not open. It worked fine Friday night… once I located the correct download link.
The download I finally completed Friday was frustrating. Why is there a Big Green Download button that takes me to a 7-Zip download… with the “Browser” download for FFv9 is barely noticeable, underneath the big green one? I thought I was downloading FF. That 7-Zip just added more work, getting it and the hidden program file for freeze.com, out of my computer.
Today I learned my Firefox was set to do automatic updates. THAT is why it switched me back to v10! Now it’s set to ask me first.
I’m putting the link here in case you didn’t see it before:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
Secondly you may want to go to the “Privacy” tab in your options and click the highlighted *it will be blue* link that says “remove individual cookies”.
I hope this helps, if it doesn’t; let me know. I hated FF10 as bad as you do and I don’t wanna see anyone suffer
Craig, You are right. I did miss your note. I looked at that link and I’m afraid the content is over my head. OMG! I went to the most recent v9 and opened the Key link. YIKES! How does anyone ever learn to write computer programs?! Learning a foreign language would be much easier!
I learned a few things about the problems related to FFv10 on the MozillaZine Forum today. You probably already know this but, I’m copying what I was told so it might help others. The instability is coming from incompatible Extensions, so to make it function, without the freeze-ups, long pauses when loading a page, etc., you have to first locate the offending extension and disable it until they get the bugs worked out. I’m wondering if this will ever happen. Version 11 will be out in just a couple of weeks and they’re already working on version 12!
If you really want to see if Fx v10 is messed up, you should do the following:
1 Close Firefox and make a backup of your profile folder.
2 Uninstall Fx v9. DO NOT ALLOW THE UNINSTALLER TO REMOVE YOUR SETTINGS!
3 Install Fx v10.
4 Open Fx v10 and make sure your old settings are being used.
5 Make note of whatever problems you are experiencing (note that you didn’t tell us what those problems were).
6 Close Firefox and restart in *safe mode (Help -> Restart with addons disabled). Do not check any boxes in the dialog that pops up, just press the continue button. *Firefox Safe Mode, NOT Windows.
7 Browse normally. Do you still have those problems?
If you answered NO to question 7, the problem was most likely caused by an extension that doesn’t work correctly with Fx v10, but did with Fx v9. To figure out which one that might be, you can follow this procedure:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diag … ion_issues
More important info about using Firefox Safe Mode:
You can get Firefox to start in safe mode easily from either the Help menu and “Restart with addons disabled”, or if you hold the left shift key down while you first start up Firefox. A little box should pop up with a bunch of checkboxes and three buttons.
***You only want to click “Continue in safe mode”. DON’T check any of the checkboxes, as that would make permanent changes to your Firefox profile.
Most likely my problem is the RealPlayer extension. I had heard v10 was not compatible with RealPlayer so that’s why [I thought] I was trying to avoid the update. Guess I’ll have to resort to using YouTube with IE to get my music videos. It doesn’t really matter, as long as I don’t lose my files.
I also learned today the reason v9 was updated back to v10 was my settings for Updates was allowing them to be done automatically! Now it’s set to ask me first. Can’t believe I failed to research my settings long ago… DUMB!
You are right Julia, we just need some extra sleep:
http://www.pandora.com/#!/stations/play/768966048582554632
I’m sorry Julia, I forgot about all those different folders. Okay so I’ll break it down:
Step 1: Go to ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
Step 2: scroll down and click 9.0.1
Step 3: Assuming you are running Windows you would then click win32
There isn’t a 64 bit option for Windows but 32 works on either, if you are using an Apple then you’d click mac instead.
Step 4: If you are in the U.S. then you click en-US
If you are from the U.K. then you select en-GB instead.
Last step: Click Firefox Setup 9.0.1.exe
Then you just run it and you are done, hope this helps.
I reverted back to Firefox 9.0 because the newest version has problems running Farmville on Facebook as wel asother Applications even with the latest Adobe Flash Player 11
The download package for 9.0.1 now results in a 404 error not found page. What happened to the files?
The download link has been fixed,thanks for your review.
Guys, same thing here – i mean problems. I updated my firefox from the previous version and my babelfish translator stopped working. Also, i couldn’t find it on ADDons list. And i know the problem occured after updating to a newer version of FFox
Because the plugin “babelfish translator” is not compatible with the latest firefox.
You are suggest to try other translator plugins or downgrade your firefox to older version.
My god Firefox 10 is like a virus. Nothing is working right and I was using Firefox for years and never had issues. But this new updates are a joke. Non-stop crash. I’m getting back to Firefox 9…
Do you mind if I ask when you installed it, was it before last Wednesday? Just because they released 10.0.2 on Thursday I think and I wanted to know if it still had all the bugs of 10.0.1.
Also if if anyone is using FF11 (beta) could you tell us how that runs please? Thanks
Firefox 11 is still in beta channel,the final version will be released March 13, 2012,before then you are suggest to stick with FF10
Thanks for the heads up, hopefully 11 wont have quite so many bugs ^_^
Coolest browser eva! keep making new MZ ( mozila firefix ) it rocks!!
Gosto muito deste programa!
10.0.1 sucked, it ran this stupid add-on compatibility splash screen that eliminated all the most important options I wanted to save. No matter how many times I changed my options it always restored them to default. Thank God for people who have the foresight to create download sites like this which forgive us our mistakes, I’ve never had a problem with Firefox until 10.0.1!
I don’t know how 11 works and I don’t care, after a week of pulling my hair with the latest supported download; I’m sitting comfortably here with 9.0.1 for some time ^_^
Installed FF 10 and my PC keeps crashing so I’m falling back to the very stable 9.0 release.
I am very happy to download Mozilla Firefox 9 for my pc. It is very interesting and fascinating to use the browser of mozilla. I used to use it before i formated.
had to downgrade FF10 kept crashing and didn’t display all windows correctly. FF9 was very good, going back.
i’m looking forward for it.
updated to firefox 10 last night and wish i hadnt. looks alot like google chrome and completely ignored hp simplepass. if i wanted a browser like google chrome ID USE GOOGLE CHROME. this is bullshit im going back to internet explorer
i want firefox 9 cause they say its stable
Damm, firefox 10 is crahsing my pc!
new version dont work for me either freeze my comp so bad i will try to go back on 8-9 version
I lost my sound somehow yesterday, and Firefox 10 was the only new program added to my pc. I’m downloading 9 again,and then deleting 10. i hope it works
Well they released 10.0.2 this week probably to address all the problems have been having, I was in a chat with one of their “bug-cuddlers” and although we didn’t find a solution; he was able to give me a link for direct official downloads of all versions:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
So if you’re not happy with 9 you can try one or all of the others, hope it works out for you.
i really love using firefox because of its reliability and flexibility
for some reason after downloading the new version of firefox 10 or 11 it simply wont open?
So i am trying to go back a step and upload the older versioon with a view to accessing my details from that
Its an older mac 10.5
I have the same issue with Firefox 10 in my Windows 7.
I have uninstalled it, and I am downloading version 9
