"No real problems with it"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 21.0
Pros
Seems to work well, as it generally has. I still use icab occasionally, or Safari
Cons
Nothing I can think of offhand.
Summary
Seems to be a great, stable browser.

"I see it as a great product"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 20.0.1
Pros
I really do not see any more than in the past
Cons
I find that it stops more often than the older version. It comes up with an option to restore and this is a pain. I just want to go forward

"Did something to my computer!"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0.2
Pros
Can't comment due to not being able to download it properly.
Cons
Did not download properly and can no longer use the Mozilla Firefox browser of any version on my computer.
Summary
I gave this 2 stars, but, I really have no idea how this latest version works! After downloading this version of Mozilla Firefox, I was unable to use it nor was I able to use the previous version I had on my computer. This download did something to my computer that NO longer allows me to use Mozilla Firefox. I tried downloading it a second time, but still could not use it. In fact, I cannot even uninstall the download. I'm given an error message!!
I may be the only one with this issue, and, this could be an excellent browser version. Unfortunately, I cannot use it to find out. I have been using Mozilla Firefox as my main browser for years and never had this issue previously. Up until now, I have been very satisfied with Mozilla!! -
"To much of a browser for me."
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
Has everything, but is to complicated.
Cons
To many gadgets that no one (me anyways) uses.
Summary
If your a geek, this is for you. If your average like me it's to much.

"Not perfect"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
Speedy and concise on my search's , excellent spell checker , can handle multiple tabs at once (14+) with no problems.
Cons
when a background update is getting done it will tend to slowdown
Summary
Search's aren't locked down to make it look good unlike chrome can be and i haven't had any add-on problems either.
detail is excellent when displaying
the only real downer is the fact it sometimes takes a little time if there is a lot to get on to the screen.
I highly recommend firefox. -

"It works OK, not as fast as Google Chrome"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
It Works, great pop-up blocking

Can't get Firefox to display PDFs, they require downloading to computer then display in Preview or Adobe Reader.

"Great as it ever was"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
Always the best
Cons
None that I am aware of
-
"Had to go back to previous version!"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
None, since I had assumed it would be an improvement.
Cons
It's not an improvement
Summary
I should learn to upgrade without thinking & doing more research first
-
"Don't Update"
Version: Mozilla Firefox (Mac) 19.0
Pros
C'mon...it's a browser.
Cons
Freezes and is slow as sh*t
Summary
WHY did I allow this upgrade to be installed? I have to force quit it daily and it's far, far less responsive than the previous version; even closing a tab has become fussier and more problematic. Whoever allowed this upgrade to be released ought to be ashamed. And as has been pointed out by another reviewer, it STILL doesn't allow for viewing PDF files.
