Mac OS 10.4, new Firefox not compatible, old Firefox disappeared
I got an on line offer to install the new Firefox. Clicked yes, tried it, but it is not compatible with my MacOS 10.4.11. The older Firefox--along with ALL my bookmarks and notes, disappeared. I am trying to update profile information for an airline and they won't accept Safari. I need to make these reservations!

You can get an installer for Firefox 3.6 here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
I recommend first backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See Backing up your information (copy whole profile folder)
thanks for your response. All my settings are gone along with the old version.
I went to the link you supplied, "backing up profile without opening firefox. But there is no info for Macs. It would be nice to knowhow to find it, since Firefox is one of only two search engines useable...
I found Mac in the right sidebar. Hopefully this link will work: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing%20up%20your%20information#os=mac&browser=fx35
Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
For an unofficial Firefox 4 compatible version that runs on Mac OS X 10.4.11 or Mac OS X 10.5.8 (PowerPC) you can look at:
Firefox 3.6.x (Mac OS X 10.4 and later) can be found here:
