firefox 13.0.1 will no longer renders sites properly that used to render fine before upgrade
is seriously considering switching back to IE believe it or not
I’ve been getting ERROR message saying : “Platform version 13.0,1 is not compatible with
minVersion>= 14.0.1
maxVersion<= 14.0.1
I tried deleting all Mozilla folders and Registry keys and still the same, I'm use to Firefox but I'm switching to Google Chrome for now!
Same problem here. Did you manage to find a solution?
I installed 15, my life is miserable, if ur running teh lower version pls be there, or you will have to spend good amount of time figuring out its updated version issue and downgrade it
enjoy
I checked to see what version of Firefox I was using and it said 15.0.1 and you are currently on the release update channel. Do I need to do anything else like downloading version 15.
Firefox 15.0.1 is the latest version. You don’t have to do anything else. :)
Great! Thanks for the share. I already have the auto update enabled on my browser and it gets updated automatically with the latest version when available.
