Acrobat X plugin incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1

Firefox 7.0.1 plugin manager reports that "Adobe Acrobat-Create PDF 1.1" is incompatible with Firefox. And, indeed, there is no Acrobat Toolbar visible on the main browser window. Is that so, and why?

Maybe a re-installation of Acrobat will put it back?
No it won't.
The problem is not with Adobe, but with Mozilla. They automatically disable extensions until the developer certifies it is compatible with the new version, and in the case of binary XPCOM extensions such as the Acrobat Create PDF toolbar, it has to be recompiled from scratch for every major release of Firefox as the version number is coded into the headers. Even if you disable Firefox's compatibility checking, it won't run.
With Mozilla's new rapid update policy, Adobe cannot possibly keep updating Acrobat every time Mozilla push a new version, and developers are not allowed to fake the compatibility header to refer to a future build. Each time Adobe do push an update to Acrobat (via the quarterly schedule) it can be expected to come with an extension compatible with whatever current (RTM) version of Firefox exists at the time that update code was developed. Given Adobe and Mozilla have wildly-different schedules, until Mozilla drop their rules on recompiling XPCOM the extension may be killed again in a matter of days, and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

HP smart web printing is incompatible with firefox 4.0. What can be done to resolve this issue?

having recently upgraded to Mozilla's Firefox 4.0 it has disabled the 4.6 HP smart web printing saying it is incompatible with Firefox 4.0? Is there any way around this inconvenience of not having the ability to use this terrific HP pdct as do not have ability to print from a website using their print feature nor simply selecting print on the Firefox browser?
thank you

Anytime that there is a browser upgrade, it affects add ons functionality. If it is in the works to make it compatible, then it simply takes time for our team to create the necessary changes. But, as history has shown, the changes are never as easy as you would think, and occasionally is not compatible without a complete rewrite of the program. If it is made compatible, it will be listed when available on the Web Printing homepage.

Trend-Micro NSC Firefox extension is incompatible with Firefox 10

When I open the add-ons screen for Firefox 10, I get a faded out message that Trend-Micro NSC Firefox extension is incompatible with Firefox 10. I've contacted Trend Micro about updates and they said that it would be a few weeks before they release an updated version. Why do you release and force updates when important extensions are not ready?

Apologies for the slow response.
Firefox is on a time based release cycle, every 6 weeks we release a new version (more or less a few days). There are over 6,000 extensions available for Firefox, almost all of them from third-party developers. When Firefox switched to a new release cycle back in the beginning of 2011, all of those extension developers we notified of the change and how it would impact them. Some of them choose not to mark their software as compatible until it work for them. If Firefox were to wait until even 80% of the extensions were marked as compatible, there would never be an update. The responsibility to update add-ons is on the extension developer. Unfortunately, some choose to wait :/
Now, all that said, Mozilla does want to ease the pain of upgrades, so there are lots of ways we are working to improve the update process.

My AT&T/Yahoo toolbar is incompatible with Firefox 4. What can I do to get it back?

I upgraded to Firefox 4 on Friday, May 6, 2011. After I finished that upgrade, I got a message that the yahoo toolbar add-on was incompatible with Firefox 4. I downloaded what I hoped was a new version on the AT&T toolbar and it seemed to work for a while, but on Saturday and Sunday my computer crashed several times. I used System Restore and then reinstalled Firefox 4. After a few crashes I decided not to enable the toolbar again. Will there be a version of the AT&T Toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 4? I use that toolbar to access my T&T mail, bookmarks and nearly all my internet browsing.

yes and I tryed going back to my home screen by pressing my home screen button

ThinkVantage Password Manager incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1

I've updated my Firefox to 7.0.1 and have noted the greyed out message within the FFox add-ons that the ThinkVantage Password Manager is incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1 I have search for a fix or patch from Lenovo that address this issue with this version of FFox but have not found any solutions. Does anyone have an ear to a possible solution? Thanks!

Hi,
There is a patch for FF support.
Please check the link below,

If you are using FF8.0 and it is not working after the patch is installed.
To the following steps:
Disable password manager extension from FF,
And find the file "tvtpwm_jstypes.xpi" and drag it into FF to reinstall the extension.
This file is usually in folder, "c:\swtools\css83_firefox5_patch"

Why is Norton 360 toolbar disabled and incompatible with Firefox?

I recently switched from Internet Explorer to Firefox 26 - I have the most recent updates for both products, but my Norton toolbar will not enable - the add-on extension states it is incompatible with Firefox, even though the Norton site claims it is compatible. The Norton Vulnerability Protection was also disabled, but after checking for updates in the toolbox, it was enabled. Is my Norton working while browsing in Firefox, and when will my Norton toolbar be available?

Norton just released information that they will support FF 27.

I have been struggling with upgrading to FF 27 to get the Norton Toolbar. But I am not wild about the awesome toolbar. But it is better than Google Chrome and IE 9. I have Windows Vista.

Is the latest version of avg virus scan incompatible with firefox?

Ive tried installing the newest version of avg virus scan and both times i get an error message regarding some kind of response time to slow. is avg 9.0 incompatible with firefox?

AVG 9.0 might work, but IMO it causes too many problems for Firefox users. You would probably be better off using either Avast or Avira.

Create PDF 1.1 is "incompatible with Firefox 35.0"

Hi all,
I'm using Acrobat Pro X and Firefox on Windows 7 x64. The Create PDF plugin (version 1.1) has been very useful, and has been working fine for a good while, even when Firefox recently upgraded itself to version 35.0.
But recently my main hard drive started to fail, so I've replaced it and reinstalled all my apps. But now in Firefox the Create PDF plugin is greyed out, with a note that it's incompatible with this latest version of the browser. I've tried uninstalling Firefox and rolling back to a previous version where I knew the plugin was working, but it's still greyed out. I don't know why, nor how to fix it. (I groan at the thought of having to reinstall my OS and applications all over again.)
I may have missed it, but I can't find any option on the Adobe site to download an update to the plugin -- assuming one exists that still functions with Firefox, and is available for download.
Can anyone help resolve this issue, please?

Yes, Acrobat X is updated to the latest version (10.1.13), but unfortunately the Create PDF plugin isn't actually updated. It's still version 1.1.
If other people have a more recent version of the plugin while running Acrobat Pro X, I'd really appreciate hearing how they got it.

Can't figure out why our toolbar is incompatible with Firefox 4

Hi,
We have a toolbar that is currently compatible with Firefox 3.*.
I've changed the max version in install.rdf to:
<em:maxVersion>4.0.*</em:maxVersion>
repackaged and opened up the toolbar .xpi file, and Firefox still reports the toolbar is incompatible, but offers no reason why it's incompatible.
Any ideas? Is there any way to see why Firefox considers it incompatible?

Hi,
I think I figured it out, it looks like I also had to increment the maxVersion in our em:updateURL XML file.
Thanks!

Tags Plugin Incompatible With Shuttle Item

I installed the Learning Library (http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/apex/r41/inst_pkgapp/inst_pkgapp.htm) and found that the Tag plugin is incompatible with the Shuttle Item. Page 17 contains both and the shuttle item does not function. It will not shuttle any items. If I remove disable the Tags item (which is of Tags Plugin type) the shuttle works as expected. I looked around for information on this plugin but did not locate it on http://www.apex-plugin.com/search-plugin-directory. I'd like to keep if but I definitely need the shuttle item working so I may just go with a text item for the Tags field.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jason

This error should only appear when you use a list-item with the list-type set to combobox. A combobox in forms is a listitem where you can also enter your own text. If you nly need a dropdown list, set the liststyle to poplist. This works also without patching. if you really need the combobox, patch.

Is Kaspersky Safe Money add-on incompatible with Firefox 15?

When Firefox updated to FF 15, it did not show Kaspersky Safe Money extension as being incompatible. However, I cannot get it to work in FF 15 and when I try, it generates 'an unknown software exception 0xc0000417..' error message. Kaspersky itself, lists Safe Money as being fine up to FF 12.x and sure enough when I rolled FF 15 back to FF 12, it did work. It also works fine in IE 8. I have emailed Kaspersky Customer Support to confirm if it is in fact incompatible and if it is, will it soon be made compatible with higher versions of Firefox. Anyone else have this problem? At the rate Firefox seems to update, it is a wonder that any add-ons are able to keep up!

Kaspersky 2012 and 2013 is fully compatible with Firefox 15, if you still facing any issue, please contact kaspersky support about it so that they will fix it via patvh through database update.:)
good luck
