new firefox

[JOHN B]

A few weeks ago I kept getting little promps from Firefox to download the latest version. I ignored it for a while but got tired of the promps, so I did. I enjoyed the new version at first, but then I found out that I can no longer easily save vids from the web to my computer! I use to be able to right click on a vid and it would give me an option to save. NOT any more!
Anyone know how I can either save vids using the new version of Firefox, or how I can get my OLD version back?

what kind of video? this no firefox default behaviour in any version, you had some plugin or addon installed that you need to reinstall.

I believe real media does not work after upgrading. And I believe real media has such a function

Oh---o.k.....I thought that the easy downloader I had wad a part of Firefox. I was able to either right click and choose "download video" or go to the top right hand corner of a vid I was playing (YouTube, XTube, or whatever) and a box would appear, saying "click here to download". I guess now, that it was an add on that came from elsewhere, and I will just have to find it again. Thanks guys.

How simple. (in case anyone else has this problem) My friend showed me that since my main video player is RealPlayer, that when I update my Firefox to the latest addition, that I have to update my RealPlayer also. Now I am back to gathering hot X-Tube vids...

well if you got my post #3 and #5 - that's what i was saying. you didn't say that you are using the realplayer, but i was suspecting that.
