can't put firefox into applications

more options

in downloading firefox - the dmg image that shows the icon and an arrow pointing to the applications has a circle with a line through it. firefox cannot be dragged into applications - it only adds a shortcut to it in the applications folder and stays on the desktop

Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (you posted with a PPC Mac) and OSX 10.5 or higher.

The last version of Firefox that supports PPC Macs and/or OSX 10.4 was Firefox 3.6.x.

Sadly, you can also try using another browser that will operate on your PPC Mac and OSX 10.4 system.

You can try the third-party product TenFourFox that supports PPC Macs with OSX 10.4.11 and OSX 10.5.8. The current version is based on Firefox 10. The product is based on Firefox released versions. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:
