Google Toolbar crashing Firefox 3.6.8

Firefox 3.6.8 crashes when accessing Add-on Manager and Google Toolbar (v 7.1.20100723W) is enabled
Running Firefox 3.6.8 on a Win7 64x HP dv7 notebook
Receive the following “Warning: Unresponsive Script” box when accessing Add-ons Manager...
Contents of box:
“A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:623”
The warning box cycles on repeatedly (Don't ask check box/Continue/Stop Script has no effect)…have to kill Firefox through “end process” in Windows Task Manager
Method:
Open Firefox in SafeMode…disabled all add-ons…accessed Add-on Manager with no issues
restarted firefox in normal mode twice to ensure normal mode is active… accessed Add-on Manager with no issues
enable add-ons one at a time and restarted twice for each add-on and accessed Add-on Manager with no issues
enabled Google tool bar and restarted … accessed Add-on Manager and the browser failed with the above script error…killed firefox through task manager…
restarted firefox… accessed Add-on Manager and the browser failed with the above script error…killed firefox through task manager
restarted Firefox in safe mode…disabled Google toolbar…
restarted Firefox in normal mode twice…accessed Add-on Manager with no issues
uninstalling/ reinstalling does not work…same issue
is any search engine toolbar?…I have read yahoo is crashing as well

Okay, this is a great way to do it. First start up Firefox in Safe Mode. On a windows, press alt when Firefox starts. On a Mac, press and hold alt and command while the Firefox icon bounces. Then, click on continue with safe mode. Go to the addons thingy, and don't disable Personas, UNINSTALL IT. Because then it takes the problem off completely. There you go. The problem is solved on Windows and Mac.

How to use google toolbar in firefox 5? Can I use the older version with google toolbar or I have to delete firefox from my computer using IE etc?

I want to use google toolbar in firefox 5, but it does not support it.

You can try this extension to override compatibility issues - once it's installed, you can just re-enable Google toolbar.

If you still want to downgrade, see here:

Which Windows version are you running?
Try to run the Firefox installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator) and maybe the Firefox program also just one time.

How i can istal google toolbar to firefox 3.6.21 ?

Be aware that Google has decided not to update the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5.0 and later versions, so Firefox 4.0 is the last version it will work with.

I am looking for the google toolbar for Firefox 8.0 because the translation it had was the best. Nothing matches it. Can anyone help me find it?

I'm using Firefox 8.0.1 with Windows 7
Ever since I updated Mozilla to this newer version, I have been having problems with translation options. I have tried many other translation plugins and they're just not as good (so please don't suggest them).
I use sites in various languages and write in different languages too. What's great about this translator was that you could hover over a word and in an instant it automatically detected the language and translated the word (or highlighted text). No clicks, no language selections, no shortkeys. I need something similar.

The Google Toolbar for Firefox was discontinued by Google last summer.

Fix for google toolbar for firefox v7.0.1

Need a fix for google toolbar for firefox v7.0.1 it no longer works with updated Firefox Do not care to switch back to IE.

The Google Toolbar has nothing to do with Mozilla. Mozilla is not and never was responsible in any way for the Google Toolbar.
The Google Toolbar was created by Google for other browsers. It was never added to their own Google Chrome browser, and they have indicated that they have dropped support for it in Firefox. The only browser they were really concerned with keeping it in was IE. They did however assert that it was not needed in Firefox because there were already features in Firefox -- those "features" include other extensions which are not really Mozilla either. But the Google Toolbar is something you got from Google. I think it is doubtful that it would have ever passed Mozilla testing to be included at mozilla.addons (AMO) or that Google would have provided Mozilla with the source for verifications.
Take a look at what features you use in the Google Toolbar and check out your usage to what is available to you based on what Google has mentioned and based on what some Firefox users have noted in the following article:
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_Google_Toolbar_features_without_toolbars Using Google Toolbar features without toolbars] - (MozillaZine Knowledge Base
For what it's worth Firefox 8.0 came out today (Tue Nov 8th, 2011), I updated from Help > About Firefox at what would be 11:55 AM Pacific time (7:55 PM London). It would be rolled out to different areas at different time. The release notes did not come up, which is probably good because they mess up so many users when they do come up.

Why cant install google toolbar with firefox 5

why cant I install google toolbar with firefox 5. I did have it untill firefox did an update
Thanks Peter

Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version does work in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension, I tried it myself due to the large number of postings about GTB problems.

Google Labs has been working on a GTB 8 version, but it looks like it isn't made for Firefox - just for Internet Explorer. 
http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1111588#toolbar_info 
So, maybe Google isn't going to be supporting Firefox any longer. That might be a move to force Google Toolbar users over to Google Chrome, which I believe has all those features built-in.

I seem to be stuck in a loop re-installing the google toolbar for firefox, since i endup at the "agree and install" page every time i reestart firefox

On my netbook, I have used the Google Toolbar for Firefox, with its handy Bookmarks access, for several years, but it appears to have become "invisible" when I open Firefox. I tried reinstalling it, and Firefox seems to perform the download, but when I restart Firefox to complete the download, itr opens on the "Start the Download" page, and the toolbar is still nowhere in sight. What am I doing wrong?

I agree with whereitis above, I hate it when options are removed (ex: the Bookmarks side panel (Ctrl-B) button missing) etc.. Firefox's major BOLD one-liner is: CUSTIMAZATION. Now to regain this CUSTIMAZATION freedom, Firefox suggest to solve this by installing the ADDON "Classic Theme Restorer". I don't want to install any ADDON to customize Firefox! I went with Firefox because it was CUSTOMIZABLE, and that is the only reason why I went with this web browser! Now, Firefox is asking me to add an ADDON to CUSTOMIZE it. What is this?!

How do Import bookmarks from google toolbar into firefox 6.02

Firefox 6.02 does not support google toobar add on. I have a ton of bookmarks in google toolbar and would need at least to import them to firefox but I do not see any way of doing it.
Please advise urgently

You can open the Bookmarks Manager in Google Chrome (wrench icon > Bookmarks > Bookmarks Manager) and select "Tools > Export Bookmarks"
This will export the Chrome bookmarks to a file bookmarks.html.
You can import that file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"

Clicking GMAIL off toolbar crashes FIREFOX tabs that are open...everything, INCLUDING writing projects in progress, is lost

Under FireFOX 3.06.10
I have google toolbars on my Firefox Browser, to get to email easier, but with latest version, when I open google button in new window, Firefox closes all the the open tabs.
These used to be independent, and anything done in a new window, "open in new window" did not affect the existing Firefox tabs that were already open.
NOW, when I open google tool bar button, "add-on", FireFox closes the existing browser session, with all the browser tabs, and everything, all gone.... VANISHED.

Cant sign in to google toolbar for firefox!

I run firefox 3.6.22
I Have the google toolbar installed
igoogle is my homepage
igoogle is signed in and when I start up firefox it starts up as it should and and logs in. On my home page I can access my mail etc.
The problem is that the google toolbar is no longer automaticaly signed in. When I try to sign in it acts as though it is signing in but it dosent. It dosent say that the pasword or user name is rong it seems like it is loging in and dosent notefy me of any problems.
I cant seem to fix this

Google changed the login domain for their '''accounts''', which broke the Google Toolbar. They're gonna need to fix the Google Toolbar extension, which probably won't happen because in July they announced they aren't going to support Firefox 5.0 and newer versions. But you can fix it yourself if you're a little familiar with programming.
With Firefox closed, open up toolbar.js in the Google Toolbar extension with a decent text editor.
Find:
www.google.com/accounts
and replace ALL with:
accounts.google.com
Start Firefox.
Login through the toolbar. Enjoy.

Security problem with my google toolbar on firefox, what should I do?

google claims I can not use newer version of it on new firefox, but I have it now so it must not be the new versio of firefox. This does not make sense to me. What is happening here?

Your system info aside suggests you are using Firefox 3.0.19 that is old and not supported. Firefox 3.6 is still supported, and should be compatible with google toolbar. (Currently it is 3.6.24 I think) Whereas the current up to date release is Firerfox 8.
