[QUOTE="Adric, post: 1442232, member: 245480"] Whoops! I'm sorry. The "X" will only appear on item purchased in the Mac App Store. Momentary brain lapse there. The launchpad will only display items currently installed on your machine so that's strange that you didn't see the old version in the applications folder. Is there a Mozilla sub folder in the applications folder? You can also try running a spotlight search on "firefox" and see if it returns with more than one. You can also launch both versions then control click on the dock icons and select "reveal in finder" and it will show you where it installed at. Edit - after looking it up, supposedly you can drag the firefox icon that is appearing in the [I]applications folder[/I] (not launchpad) to the trash, then open the trash folder, control click the firefox icon and select "put back". Close the finder and open launchpad and you should have only one icon. Let me know if that works. [/QUOTE]
