Baixada i instal·lació
Requisits del sistema
Abans d'instal·lar, assegureu-vos que el vostre ordinador compleix els Requisits del sistema.
Baixada de Firefox 2
Mozilla proporciona Firefox 2 per Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X en diversos idiomes. Podeu obtenir la darrera versió del Firefox 2 aquí. Per a muntatges per altres sistemes i idiomes no proporcionats per Mozilla.org, vegeu la secció de Muntatges de Col·laboradors al final d'aquest document.
Instal·lació del Firefox 2
Si us plau, tingueu en compte que la instal·lació del Firefox 2 en sobreescriurà la vostra instal·lació actual. No perdreu cap de les vostres adreces d'interès o l'historial de navegació, però algunes de les vostres extensions i altres complements podrien deixar de funcionar fins que estiguin disponibles les seves actualitzacions.
Elimina el Firefox 2
Podeu treure el Firefox 2 a través del Panell de Control en el Menú d'Inici de Windows, suprimint l'aplicació en OS X, o eliminant la carpeta del Firefox en Linux.
Eliminar el Firefox 2 no suprimirà les vostres adreces d'interès, l'historial de navegació, les extensions o altres complements. Aquestes dades s'emmagatzemen en la vostra carpeta de perfil, que es troba en una de les següents ubicacions, depenent del vostre sistema operatiu:
| Windows Vista | Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox |
| Windows 2000, XP | Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox |
| Windows NT | WINNT\Profiles\<UserName>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox |
| Windows 98, ME | Windows\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox |
| Mac OS X | ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox |
| Linux and Unix systems | ~/.mozilla/firefox |
Qualsevol versiió del Firefox que instal·leu després d'eliminar el Firefox 2 seguirà emprant les dades d'aquesta carpeta de perfil.
Extensions i Temes
Extensions instal·lades sota el Firefox 1.5 podrien ser incompatibles i/o becessutar actualitzacions per a funcionar amb el Firefox 2. Si us plau, informeu de qualsevol problema al mantenidor de l'extensió. Quan instal·leu el Firefox 2 totes les vostres Extensions i Temes seran desactivades fins que el Firefox 2 determini que a) són compatibles amb el llançament del Firefox 2 release o b) hi ha noves versions disponibles que són compatibles.
Problemes Coneguts
Aquesta llista cobreix alguns dels problemes coneguts amb el Firefox 2. Si us plau, llegiu això abans d'informar de nous errors.
- Tots els sistemes
-
- Algun programa tallafocs podria bloquejar l'execució del Firefox silenciosament. Això normalment ocorre immediatament després que el Firefox ha estat instal·lat o actualitzat des d'una versió anterior. Hi ha instruccions de configuració disponibles pels programes tallafocs més populars per ajudar-vos a assegurar-vos que el Firefox està autoritzat a connectar-se a la xarxa.
- Els diccionaris per algunes localitzacions no poden ser empaquetats amb els muntatges, i cal que siguin baixats manualment fent click dret en un quadre de text i seleccionant «Afegiu Diccionaris...» des del menú contextual. Regularment s'afegeixen nous diccionaris a Mozilla Add-ons, així que si no veieu el diccionari que necessiteu, comproveu si ja està disponible disponible un altre dia.
- Les definicions de tecles d'accés que algunes planes web ofereixen es poden activar ara utilitzant Alt+Shift+tecla en Windows, Ctrl+tecla en Mac OS X, i Ctrl+Shift+tecla en Unix.
- La funció de Restauració de Sessió facilitada en el Firefox 2 restaurarà les connexions a serveis que utilitzen galetes de sessió per a mantenir l'estat de la sessió, com GMail. Es recomana que els usuaris amb preocupacions sobre la seva privadesa canvien el valor de browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash a fals.
- The option for "Shrink to fit" has been removed in Firefox 2. If you wish to change this from the value you had set in your previous version of Firefox, change the value of browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing.
- Software Update will not work if Firefox is installed to a location on your disk to which you do not have write access, since Software Update needs to replace or create files in this location.
- Some financial institutions use port 563 for secure logins, which results in an error message. If you encounter this error, make sure that network.security.ports.banned.override includes 563 in the comma-separated list of banned network ports to override.
- Windows & Windows Vista
-
- The Java Console extension that came with Java SE 6.0u1 (J2SE6.0.01) is incompatible with Firefox as reported in Bugzilla. Java should work as expected, but the menu item "Java Console" will not be available in the Tools menu. This issue has been fixed in Java SE 6.0u2 (J2SE6.0.02) and later versions and is available for download from the Java website.
- Clicking links in some applications (e.g. some instant messaging programs) might not open them in Firefox, even if you have set it as your default browser. To workaround this problem, go to Start -> Default Programs -> Set default programs for this computer, expand custom, select the radio button next to the app you want to set as the system wide default app (e.g. Firefox, etc.), and apply.
- The Windows Media Player (WMP) plugin is not provided by default in all versions of Windows. If you are having trouble playing Windows Media content in Firefox, download and install the Windows Media Player Plugin for Firefox.
- Vista Parental Controls are not completely honored. In particular, file downloads do not honor Vista's parental control settings. This will be addressed in an upcoming Firefox release.
- When migrating from Internet Explorer 7 to Firefox, cookies and saved form history are not imported.
- Use of the install-global-extension and install-global-theme command line arguments have been restricted to only allow installing add-ons that are on local disks or mapped drives. Installing from a network share directly will no longer succeed.
- Mac OS X
-
- On OS X 10.5 (Leopard), there are known problems with some media plugins as well as Add-ons that contain binary components.
- The "Close Other Tabs" action on the shortcut menu of a tab can fail with an error when more than 20 tabs are open.
- Some users have reported problems viewing Macromedia Flash content on Intel Mac computers. To work around this problem, users can remove or move the PowerPC version of "Flash Player Enabler.plugin from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.
- After installing a new plug-in, Firefox may continue to display information for the older version of the plug-in in about:plugins. If this happens, quit Firefox, delete the "pluginreg.dat" file from your profile folder, and relaunch Firefox.
- Java does not run on Intel Core processors under Rosetta.
- There is no Talkback on Intel-based Macs when running natively or under Rosetta. The Apple Crash report program should launch in the event of application crashes.
- Linux and Unix
-
- If Firefox is installed to a location with spaces in the path, it may not be able to set itself as default browser and may keep prompting at startup. The work around is to install into a path without spaces.
- GNOME integration does not work properly with Fedora Core 3. Users of Fedora Core 3 will need to download and install linc-1.0.3-3.1.i386.rpm. After installing the RPM, perform the following command in the directory in which you installed Firefox (you will need write permission):
The next time you start Firefox, GNOME integration should be functional.touch .autoreg
Troubleshooting
- Poorly designed or incompatible extensions can cause problems with your browser, including make it crash, slow down page display, etc. If you encounter strange problems relating to parts of the browser no longer working, the browser not starting, windows with strange or distorted appearance, degraded performance, etc, you may be suffering from Extension or Theme trouble. Restart the browser in Safe Mode. On Windows, start using the "Safe Mode" shortcut created in your Start menu or by running
firefox.exe -safe-mode. On Linux, start with./firefox -safe-modeand on Mac OS X, run:
When started in Safe Mode all extensions are disabled and the Default theme is used. Disable the Extension/Theme that is causing trouble and then start normally.cd /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/
./firefox-bin -safe-mode - If you uninstall an extension that is installed with your user profile (i.e. you installed it from a Web page) and then wish to install it for all user profiles using the -install-global-extension command line flag, you must restart the browser once to cleanse the profile extensions datasource of traces of that extension before installing with the switch. If you do not do this you may end up with a jammed entry in the Extensions list and will be unable to install the extension globally.
- If you encounter strange problems relating to bookmarks, downloads, window placement, toolbars, history, or other settings, it is recommended that you try creating a new profile and attempting to reproduce the problem before filing bugs. Create a new profile by running Firefox with the -P command line argument, choose the "Manage Profiles" button and then choose "Create Profile...". Migrate your settings files (Bookmarks, Saved Passwords, etc) over one by one, checking each time to see if the problems resurface. If you do find a particular profile data file is causing a problem, file a bug and attach the file.
