  • My understanding is that FireFox 34 should be available on Ubuntu quite soon, from the repositories. You may be better off waiting for that. Dec 2, 2014 at 14:46

Press CTRl + ALT + T. then type in the the following

sudo apt-get upgrade firefox

then type Y

At which point Ubuntu will then upgrade Firefox with any hassles.

If you already download the firefox, you can follow this step, it is from mozilla it self:

  1. Download Firefox from the Firefox download page to your home directory.
  2. Open a Terminal and go to your home directory: cd ~
  3. Extract the contents of the downloaded file: tar xjf firefox-*.tar.bz2
  4. Close Firefox if it's open.
  5. To start Firefox, run the firefox script in the firefox folder: ~/firefox/firefox

  • This applies two different versions to Firefox. You need to remove the 33 from ubuntu Terminal
