Is This The Correct Forum....

...to discuss the plethora of questions that have just flooded my entire being now that I am in the process of installing FireFox 3.5... or perhaps I should be in the lounge? My next question is why is the font size I am typing in so much larger than it ever was when I accessed MG through IE?

To Whomever... I feel so overwhelmed right now with such unfamiliar territory.. a total Newbie, Neophyte like I'm back 20 years ago... I'm almost too embarrassed to even post here. For example I am within the 1st hour after installation and I am working on the first project that came up ~~ add on's... while totally unfamiliar in feature/function and just working on my 3rd add on attempting to work with 'getting started' inside of CoolIris as soon as I attempted to open it after going thru the install function, again "getting started" I was hit with a pop up admonition that I need to install Flash Player in order to proceed... Now as far as I was aware under IE 7 / 8 I indeed had the current version loaded on my system and specifically IE... Player 10 I believe. I did a search of my HD but found nothing I believe I could translate into the proper add on or plug in or whatever catagory it may be labeled as...

So where do I go from here... and draw pictures for the now stupid kid in the back row, please! And just where and how should I ask or address the again myriad of questions that are going to come up and avoid getting anyone upset with me or in the vernacular I don't want to PO anybody within MG... You guys and ladies have been fantastic so far and I surely wouldn't want to get a bad rep with how little I now know and need to find out...

Perhaps there is a book "FireFox For Dummies"?? out there because right now that's just what I feel like ~~ A Dummie.... Oooooo I don't like this... not at all!

Thanks Much

 

Well I see a lot of y'all have checked my post out but I can understand why there are no replies yet... so now that I am accessing this post visa vie IE again I feel more comfortable ... The font size is normal and not the 24 point I was dealing with under FF ~~ so let me condense my question down to:

How do I load flash*.* into FireFox??

Thanks

To control font size, Ctrl and + to increase, Ctrl and - to decrease.

Edit - use the link in post 3 from within Firefox AND from within Internet Explorer, that way, it get's installed fully into each program.
