I've downloaded version 8.0 3 times now. I am following the directions of "drag icon into applications folder; drag icon from applications folder to desktop." The icon is in my applications folder. It refuses to drag into my dock. What is going on?????

Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.
