Firefox asks me to update to 5.0, but I have rolled back to 4 because Google Toolbar and McAffee, among others are not updated for 5.0. When will the add-ons be updated?

The update for 5.0 came so quickly, that a very large number of the add-ons and extensions I use to keep it safe and operate the way I am used to are not working, the MOST important of these being Google Toolbar and McAfee site advisor. I am already using Chrome for work due to the known issues FireFox has with the Google Toolbar in 4.0, and although I am a HUGE fan of Firefox, this latest update that seems rushed just to meet a deadline set may be the straw the broke the Firefox's back!! Let me know what I can expect going forward

'''The Google Toolbar is no longer supported by Google in Firefox 5 and up''', you may be able to get what you want from it for a limited time, the directions to install the Google Toolbar were posted before Google actually announced dropping support.

*the-edmeister posted a brief evaluation of the situation<br>https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841736
Since you are or were working on Google Chrome, you already have a good idea of how you can use your browser without the Google Toolbar.
In any case you can find several alternative solutions, and you can start working on them now, see

  • I updated Firefox and the extensions and keep getting "restart firefox for changes to take effect." Even after restarting, none of the add-ons actually update and do not appear, for instance, noscript. Please help!

    There are a bunch of add-ons that recently were updated, including noscript, adblock, etc. These add-ons were updated successfully and say in the add-on window they will be installed the next time Firefox restarts. There's also a bar that says "restart firefox now" and even when clicking restart firefox, none of the updates seem to load. I had to manually download the noscript the last time to get it to work but alas with the latest update, again, same problems. i tried disabling other plugins with no impact either. Anyone else having a similar problem and does anyone know how to get this resolved?

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.

  • HT4972 When will the iPod second generation update to iOS 5 or 6 or at least 4.3?

    When will my iPod 2nd generation update to iOS 5 or iOS 6 or at least iOS 4.3?

    Never. If you need a newer iOS version, sell the iPod touch and put the money towards a newer device.

  • Newly installed Thunderbird. When browsing the add ons listing it completely crashes. No add ons installed yet. No crash report comes up.

    In the Add-ons Manager I click on 'see all' and it crashes thunderbird. Completely shuts it down to desktop. No crash report, just blink and its gone. No add-ons installed yet.

    Those "vanishing acts" are one of the hardest things to work out.
    Can you open this page when you click.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
    and this
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
    both of those are the link that opens in Thunderbird when you click show all, one without the detected locale.
    Assuming you have had your operating system installed for some time (XP is old) please run the disk cleanup tool on the start menu in Accessories\system tools. as the issue may be related to an over full temp folder or other disk issue.

  • After updating to 9.0.1, I have LOTS of problems. Bookmarks, google search, and more.

    1. The icons accompanying the bookmarks in the list disappeared.
    2. The former method of ordering the bookmarks disappeared and I cannot find any new one. The list of bookmarks in the catalogue (library? I use the program in Spanish) has become incomplete.
    3. By mistake I clicked to show some bookmarks in a horizontal top bar. Now I cannot make it disappear.
    4. And suddenly the google search box disappeared, too! It had been there after the updating until a while ago, when nr 3 happened.
    What is happening here? Something must be seriously wrong, for my bank says I cannot use some of its functions that used to work fine with Firefox if I do not go back to earlier versions.

    Did you read the "Icons missing in the Bookmarks menu" in that article?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    *Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

  • When will the ACE exam be updated for LR 2.0?

    Just wondering if anyone has heard if / when the ACE exam for Lightroom will be updated to reflect the fact that we're on Version 2.0 of the software (well, 2.2 / 2.3 I guess). It seems to me that the summary page:
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/ace/main.html
    and the prep guide:
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/en/ace/ACE_Exam_Guide_PhotoshopLightroom.pdf
    don't specifically refer to v2.0 and I don't *think* they've been updated recently. I have tried emailing Adobe support about this, but they have only said that "it depends on the higher authority and the web development team who takes decision amongst themselves about the schedule of the exam." I find it hard to believe that the web development team decide what goes into the LR ACE exam! However, I tried to seek clarification and was given the same answer once again.
    I seem to remember reading that when a new version of a program is released, the ACE for the older version is only valid for another X months (possibly 6?), before you have to re-take the exam for the new version to remain ACE-qualified. Obviously I don't want to take the ACE exam for v1.0 (which I don't actually even have any more!) if they suddenly update it next week.

    I have asked someone who should know and will wait for an answer then post back.

  • When will the 10.8.2 update be available for 13inch retina macbook pros?

    How do i update to 10.8.2 to have power nap enable for my new 13inch Macbook Pro Retina?

    All you have to do is open your Mac App Store application and select Software Upgrades at the top.  It wiall then check your computer for all available software upgrades, and offer them for download.
    Apparently some Users are posting that ththe 10.8.2 Update has been removed by Apple from the Store for now.  No reason given, so we'll have to wait and see.
    Hope this helps

  • In the new Firefox, I have no back button, no "most frequently visited" and there is no longer an option to save tabs when I close.

    Many features have disappeared. There is no back button to go to the previous page. There is no "most frequently visited" icon on the toolbar. I am not asked if I want to save all my tabs when I close firefox. There is no recently bookmarked tab on the toolbar. Everything takes longer to get to. The tabs don't automatically stay open.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Another possibility is to use:
    * [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Firefox (Tools) > Options] > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
    Do you still have the Bookmarks Toolbar visible?
    * [[Restore the default Smart Bookmarks Folders]]
    Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
    Make sure that you have the Bookmarks Toolbar and the Navigation Toolbar visible: "View > Toolbars"
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • 2 iphones 1 computer. updated my wifes phone to ios 5 her phone got wiped of all apps and all my contacts are on her phone. we had been using the same apple id but different user accounts on our laptop. How do i get her phone back to normal?

    2 iphone 4, 1 computer. i upgraded to ios 5 and just updated my wifes phone as well. her phone got wiped of all apps and all my contacts were put on her phone. we had been using the same apple id but different user acct on our laptop. How do i get her phone back to normal??

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • When will the Bonjour protocols be updated for use in an Enterprise?

    Bonjour protocols really need an upgrade. Usage of iOS devices in a large VPN'd network is difficult to say the least.  These limitations are making it impossible to recommend usage of iOS equipment.  In some cases I have found a work around to get iStuff operational, but when someone with a windows tablet can walk into a classroom or office and have their 'stuff' work immediatly (including printing) it becomes difficult to recommend that anyone use an iPad.

    Note that this does not affect apps that are already in the app store. It only comes into play if you decide to submit a new app or update an existing one.
