Why are my installed extentions on FF 5.01 suddenly not showing up in the add-ons window tab (to change preferences), even though the extentions (like Google toolbar and Awesome Screenshot) are visible on the FF interface?

My Google toolbar was working fine earlier this morning. A few hours later, the search window stopped opening new tabs. I did some snooping and discovered that none of my extension add-ons were showing up in the add-ons tab. However, the appearance and plug-ins are still listed. When I click on the Extensions tab there is just a small box that says "You don't have any add-ons of this type installed." However, my Google toolbar, Add Blocker, and Awesome Screenshot etc. is still visible in the FF interface. When I try to uninstall the Google toolbar using the options button on the toolbar itself, nothing happens. What's up?

Same solution as dplavin. Thanks!
Afterwords there were some changes in Add-ons that were enabled/disabled that then had to be straightened out.
I disabled Test Pilot which was in the process of testing thinking that it might have had something to do with the problem. I have not updated to the latest version of 5.0 because one favorite Add-on [Firegestures] is supposed to be incompatible.

  • HT201272 Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? Please help!!

    Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? It is the same on my iphone4 or ipad 2!!  Please help!!

    Dear Metal Wheels and King Penguin.
    I have to actually same problem today 23.10.2012. For an example I have only changed billing methods and have bought hundreds of apps but I remember clearly that I bought for an example ,,Wikipanion Plus'' and ,,OPlayer'' which is now HD OPlayer and I did not see them in purchased items, neither ,,not on ipad/iphone'' nour ,,not on my computer'' and I check in both my computer. I confirm hereby that I took the chance to re-buy these two Apps again through the same account but I got the message ,,As you have bought the previous version on this account you will get this update for free'' so I clicked yes and I got them both. This doesnt only proof that I have purchased them before and purchased items in iTunes Store has some lacks to fix but also it proofs that I also bought them through that specific account as I had to confirm the buying process. In my opnion this is not a thing which Apple should be relaxed with as its very important that powerusers and regular consumers can trust and rely on doing business and to shop via iTunes. I have a lot of expensive Apple Hardware and for me this is a stepping stone and a serious test on the circle of trust. If this cant be fixed I cannot recommend others to trust the store.

  • After updating Firefox to 5.0.1 the add-ons Manager did not show any of my add-ons, although they were all running.

    After updating Firefox to 5.0.1 the add-ons Manager did not show any of my add-ons, although they were all running. Several restarts of Firefox, even with the add-ons disabled did not bring them back. I then installed another add-on and after restarting, all of the previous add-ons are now shown in the manager.
    Running on Mac 10.5.8. Add-ons installed:
    Adblock Plus, Add-on Compatibility reporter, Ant Video Downloader, Forecastfox, Google toolbar, Reload Every, Session Manager, and Steep and Cheap Watcher.
    Note: the troubleshooting information was taken after the problem was fixed. Prior to fixing the issue, there were no items under the Extensions heading. Add-on Compatibility Reporter was the add-on that was added to restore all of the other add-ons, even though it was already installed.

    '''Good to know you solved your own problem by simply installing another extension''', I like solutions that aren't going to cause extra work, or loss of data.
    Here is what people normally have to do for missing extensions, as if not installed.-- <br>https://support.mozilla.com/questions/826729
    :http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions_%28Firefox%29
    FWIW, renaming or deleting extensions.sqlite and the other files beginning with "extensions." causes the files to be rebuilt from the extensions directory, so nothing is lost, but they will be restored in alphabetical order.
    I've solved places.sqlite problems by simply restoring a bookmarks backup, or creating a bookmarks backup and restoring that rather than face loss of history.
    Please mark as solved so others will see your answer when looking for solved problems as solutions to there own or other people's problems.

  • I can't get firefox (Linux) to use flashplayer. I've installed a dozen times but it doesn't show up in tools/add-ons.

    I've tried installing flash player a dozen times, with both the instructions on the adobe page and the mozilla page. I'm running Fedora Core 11 with Mozilla 3.5.9. I've gotten "libflashplayer.so" and copied it to every "mozilla/plugins" directory on the drive. It does not work and is not listed when I bring up "tools/add-ons." One instruction said to copy "flashplayer.xpt" to the "mozilla/commponents" directory, but the download included no such file and I have no such directory. (Probably pertains to an older version.) I've tried downloading it with the .tar, .gzip, and yum; all with the same result. It doesn't work online and doesn't show up in my plug-ins.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Only time I've tried to install it.

    I had a problem with Fedora 15-64bit + Firefox 64bit + flash player plugins. I finally found that the plugins must be put in: /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins.
    I downloaded the 64-bit version of the flash plugins at : http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html Decompressed it and move the file libflashplayer.so to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins (you need to be super user to do that). Restarted Firefox and it worked ! My guess is that if you use 32-bit plugins then you must put them in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped but I didn't try.
    Arg ! It took me the whole evening to find that !

  • I have the latest Adobe flash player installed but it does not show up in my add-ons or plug-ins on Firefox 3.6. In the plug-in check, it recognizes that the shockwave flash is up to date. How can I have the plug-in appear and be enabled on firefox?

    I have uninstalled the flash player and installed it numerous times with no recognition by the Firefox plug-ins. I also have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it as well. I have also restarted my computer several times as well. The flash player is certainly installed but not working on Firefox. Thanks in advance for your help.

    James j,
    You have a different problem. Your screenshot shows "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed".
    See [[Plugin crash reports]] and [[The adobe Flash plugin has crashed]]. If you need more help you should [[ask a question|ask a new question]] (start a new thread).

  • I purchased a new computer.  Why when I log in to itunes does my library not show up

    I purchased a new computer.  Why when I log in to itunes does my library not show up?

    I'm confused....if itunes is basically storing your music for you and you log in, why doesn't that automatically default to your account and display all of you music.  What's really strange is, if I have my old laptop on and I am logged into itunes it showed up on my new laptop.  But when I log out, it's gone

  • My contacts are not showing up on the PC app or the web interface.  Why isn't this working?

    My contacts are not showing up on the PC app or the web interface.  Message+ works fine on my Note 4 though.  My contacts are saved in my Google account.
    I've tried several things but message+ acts like there are no contacts in the app yet there are names and pictures in my conversations.  Can anyone help me?

        matthttam,
    Let's make sure that we get you up and running with no issues. I want to make sure that we are on the same page. Are your contacts actually listed in the address book on your phone? Are you using Verizon Messages? Or the third party Messages  from the Play Store? Please keep us posted.

  • When I create a playlist and sync it to my iPhone not all of the playlist transfers over.  All of the songs are there and are playable they just do not show up on the playlist.

    When I create a playlist and sync it to my iPhone not all of the songs on the playlist transfer over.  All of the songs are there and are playable they just do not show up on the playlist.  For example, in itunes on my computer a playlist has over 100 songs, but when I sync my phone, my iphone only shows 60 songs.  I can go into my phone and add the missing songs to the playlist, but the next time I sync my phone the songs are gone again.

    Wondering if you haven't been bitten by the new "feature" of iOS 5, as was my son. turingtest2 explained it very well in reply to my own query about "missing" songs in playlists.

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

  • My Websites are not showing up on the Creative Cloud Control Panel

    Hi guys,
    For some reason, just recently, my websites that I have hosted with BC, that I have built for clients, are not showing up on the right control panel? Usually when I load up CC, it shows the Website text as ...loading, then my sites appear... now, nothing.
    Help!?
    Thanks,

  • Calendar invites are not showing up in the Calendar Inbox

    Calendar invites from Google Calendar are not showing up in the iPhone Calendar Inbox.  They do show up in the actual iPhone calendar (greyed out waiting for a response) but if you are managing multiple invites it's very important to view the invites especially if dealing with multiple invites on different days.  This is affecting users with Iphone4, 4s and 5 on multiple iOS's.

    Sorry for the late reply, it is still an irritating issue.  Apple says it's Google's poblem.  Google thinks it's Apple's issue.  Extremly irritating.
    I tried setting up the Calendar using the Exchange presets but that did not solve the invitation problem.
