I cannot download firefox beta for my mobile. Why does it keep saying "The requested item could not be found"? I have a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate.

I log onto www.firefox.com/m/beta

Click on download firefox beta for android.

It then prompts the message "The requested item could not be found"

I have a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate and android version 2.1

Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android

Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.

Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3

(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)
