Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1


Recommended Posts

Hey, at least you are not on ubuntu ehhe .Firefox on ubuntu looks really ugly when compared to how it looks on vista.

IMO:

FF3 OS X > FF3 win xp > ff3 vista > __netscape 1.0 __ > Ff3 on ubuntu.

I think they took the 'native' look way too far.

I agree, they blew it on Ubuntu.

Can anyone get glasser with explorer bar to work on RC1

This is the official beta release of the Glasser extension, designed to work with Firefox 3 RC1. The creater, 6XGate, also describes how to use the 'Windows Explorer-like' themed bookmarks toolbar with this extension and provides the download link:

There is only a beta version now and this is an update to the Glasser you would have used on Firefox 3 Beta 5, as that was alpha.

Hope that helps? :)

I like firefox in linux the best of all, because it is really native. If you have a good theme and icons it looks great, I personally think it looks great even with default themes like clearlooks or human and tango icons. I love. programs that integrate perfectly with the look of the os.

imo

Firefox linux > Firefox Vista (With glasser) >OSX >XP

Seems to be working flawlessly, only had to reinstall my flash player since that wasn't recognized anymore, so I upgraded to flash player 10 and all is working great even my main extensions were updated and work as I would like them to :)

Keeper for me so far, even uninstalled FF2.

I've just updated, and the only plugins that didn't work for me is PicLens and AIO Sidebar. The rest works smoothly and I'm pleased that there is now a Clear List button in Downloads.

Flash Player doesn't work for me, Neowin keeps reporting it needs additional plugins, I install them and restart the browser and it says the exact same thing.

I tried downloading the Installer, same thing - Says It's installed but doesn't work.

I had the same problem as well. The Adobe installer worked though, so I'm unsure what your problem is really.

Sorry to hijack the thread but i did search for Firefox 3.0 using Neowin search and now everything on Neowin to do with Firefox is highlighted in bright yellow AND also in IE7 which i don't use, so i'm guessing this is a Neowin setting.

How do i remove the highlighting please? As its fine on my laptop but not the desktop pc.

I'm using windows Vista if that helps.

I've noticed one problem so far and that is my facebook chat app is broken most of the time (it thinks it's disabled on every page, but only sometimes :s)

Anyone else experience this?

Yeah your not the only one, seems to happen a lot, if I click on another page it works then breaks again. Was fine in beta 5.

Can someone point me towards 3b5? I'm trying to find a download link and they all lead to RC1. Prior betas would install separately but that didn't happen this time around. Roboform isn't working for me

What OS?

I can give you my link.

If you want OSX that is.

If not, give me a sec and I'll give you my windows installation (from my USB).

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
