When I download Firefox using the 3 step guide for my Mac, the icon is shown as an external drive and not the usual Firefox icon. I drag it into the Apps folder as suggested, but when I try to follow the next steps to place in the dock it will not do it. I try clicking on the icon to open firefox but nothing works. Can you help? Operating system Mac 0S10 .4

I tried to download Firefox for the first time

Hi. Thanks for getting back to me.... You are right I missed the bit where you have to drag the icon across on the display that pops up. It is not clear that you have to do this. I was dragging the dmg file from the desktop into my Apps folder which was the mistake. All good now and Firefox is working nicely. Thanks Bernie
