Firefox on Mac OS X 10.5.8? I was wondering, and this may be a dumb question, if I can run Firefox on my Mac? I used to have it on my PC but always thought it was a PC application and not compatible with a Mac. If I can download it, what version should I download? MacMost forum question: How Do I Upgrade From OS X 10.5.8 To 10.8.2? 1/14/13 2:17 pm. How Do I Upgrade From OS X 10.5.8 To 10.8.2. I have an older iMac 5,1 2.16 GHz Core Duo with 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. If all this makes a difference? It is running 10.5.8 now and I would like to upgrade to 10.8.2. Firefox says my system is no. May 16, 2014 Mozilla Firefox for Mac is a Web browsing alternative that offers a full range of features to let you peruse your favorite sites with ease. This program offers all of the functionality you'd. I have Mac 10.7.5 and I can't get a newer OS and I need to know which version of Firefox I need to download. Their old directory of files is extremely hard to navigate and I don't know which one I need. If you’re using OS X 10.5.8 Leopard then you can still download Firefox 16 for Macs which works on 10.5.8. However, we strongly recommend you upgrade to at least OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard or higher as Firefox 16 is no longer updated by Mozilla and therefore not secure anymore.

Mozilla Firefox is a graphical web browser developed by the Mozilla Corporation and a large community of external contributors. Firefox started as a fork of the Navigator browser component of the Mozilla Application Suite. Firefox has replaced the Mozilla Suite as the flagship product of the Mozilla project, under the direction of the Mozilla Foundation.
To display web pages, Firefox uses the Gecko layout engine, which implements most current web standards in addition to several features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards. Latest Firefox features include tabbed browsing, spell checking, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, private browsing, location-aware browsing (also known as 'geolocation') based exclusively on a Google service and an integrated search system that uses Google by default in most localizations. Functions can be added through add-ons, created by third-party developers, of which there is a wide selection, a feature that has attracted many of Firefox's users. Mozilla Firefox is a cross-platform browser, providing support for various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
