I have done everything as instructed but I can not take the icon off my desktop ..... I kept the Firefox icon on the dock but each and every time I do it . The installation blue window with the applications on the right side comes up and if I do it again I have to keep replacing the software on my Applications folder .... and I am back to step one ...... I have gone many different ways but nothing seems to work .... So my only choice is to leave the download icon on the desktop which is not the way it is supposed to work .

Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.

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