you should try at some point to find a copy of a 10.6 install disc and 'upgrade' like i plan to soon. it should work a little more smoothly and better. In the past these extensions cost about 5 per year, but most are now free. (trust me i know on this one.lol).ĭont try to use the most recent version it wont work on 10.5Īnd after you are all done with that. Browser extensions are program shortcuts that are designed to work alongside your browser to enhance your online experience, much like the apps you download to your smartphone. even tho you will get notices from some websites saying that 'you need to update your browser'. but you will need to make sure you also do any and all updates you can find here at the 'App Store' for instance Quicktime up to 7.7 and then you also need to make sure you update flash player (on your own) to make sure it works properly. I recommend Firefox myself as it is what i use. and they actually have slightly older versions of browsers that work and will update to a point and will still work. I found a site that collects 'Old Apps' for bot PC & MAC. i needed programs that were 'older' in nature to work on the OS. The Free Software Foundation didn’t like this, so they released their own version of Firefox, which doesn’t recommend installing non-free plugins.
Mozilla Firefox is free software, but it recommends non-free, closed-source software such as the Adobe Flash plugin. dealing with having 10.5 myself that i had to update OSX using downloads from here to get beyond a certain level i believe i am at the end of the 10.5 update extent.īut after that. IceCat is the GNU version of Firefox for Linux and other free operating systems.
