Add-On Update is not working for my firefox. All plugins shown as unknown please help SCREENSHOT INCLUDED

When I click 'check to see if my add-ons are up to date' firefox shows that all my plugins are unknown. They all work fine, but I have no way of knowing which actually need to be updated or not outside of manually doing it, which I have been doing for some time. It's frustrating because it puts my computer at risk, as I can't easily see the status of all of my plugins at once as I should.
This has occurred through at least 10 updates of firefox and a couple reinstalls. I've been trying to ignore it, and I've googled for help but I haven't found a solution.

Firefox only knows about a few popular plugins like Flash and Silverlight and Java and the Adobe Reader, but not plugins like DivX and iTunes.<br />
You should see if those are up to date if you visit the plugin check page.<br />
You can always visit the website of a plugin to see if there is an update because the plugin check page may get it wrong or haven't been updated yet to recognize the latest version.

    Hello selinahillier, Many times when this happens the DVD laser has become faulty. I have removed the DVD drive, and the DVD drive case, and used a soft cloth and some cleaning solution to clean the DVD Laser and managed to get the DVD working again.
    Since DVD drives are as inexpensive as they are now, it might be best to just purchase a new one.
    These can be purchased for less than $20.00 USD now.
    Here  is a link to NewEgg where these drives can be found.
    Just some thoughts.
    Please click the White Kudos star on the left, to say thanks.

  • Is the update page not working for  of our devices.

    Is the update page not working for apps? I cannot get it to load with any of our devices. iPhones or iPads?

    There have been numerous reports on the forum today regarding this issue. It seems to be an issue at Apple, but no information has been posted on the status site.

  • SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone... Please help me

    SInce the iOS 7.0.2 update I can't have any GarageBand's Ringtone working for the text's Ringtone...
    Please help me

    As the other person that replied, I have no issues with my 4S on iOS 7.0.2. What user troubleshooting have you tried? Restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try double tapping on the home button, swipe upwards to force closed the camera app, then do a reset. That is holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. This will have not affect on your data. Try opening the camera app again and see if it works.
    One last question. You say that it shows a standard size picture of the picture where you started. Is this when you are looking at the picture you tried to take in the Camera Roll?

    Perform a Reset...  Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • HT201210 My Ipod will not work anymore its just the apple showing could you please help me restart

    My Ipod will not work anymore its just the apple showing could you please help me restart?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.

  • I have a few important add-ons that will not work, yet, with Firefox 4. How easy is it for me to downgrade to 3.6 temporarily until these issues have been resolved?

    I really need to downgrade to the previos Firefox version just until a couple of add-ons have been upgraded. How easily can I do this without losing my current settings?

    There is no guarantee that the add-ons that currently do not work with Firefox 4 will ever be updated, they may have been discontinued.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  • Please help.  Error 16 after update - solutions not working for me

    If anyone could help I would really appreciate it.  Have spent the last three days since Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop update trying to get anything to work.  I have tried the various solutions, but nothing seems to work for me.  I am using OSX 10.8.4.  Would really appreciate any assistance.  Many thanks in advance.  John

    Blanco1234 and Capnahabnick to confirm you have both implemented the steps listed in Configuration error - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/configuration-error-cs5.html?
    If so you could still be facing permission difficulties.  I would recommend logging in as a root user and trying to launch Photoshop in that account.  If you are successful then your current user account still has compromised file permissions.
    You can find information on how to log into a root user account at Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528.

    Too, try uninstalling System Update (completely remove it) install Windows 7 sp1 (if not done already) and reinstall System Update again. Do not restart immediately, wait a few moments and than restart. See what's happens.

  • Firefox 20 does not work for me AT ALL - totally unusable

    I downloaded Firefox 20.0 this morning, as I update my browser whenever they are available. To my consternation I discovered that it made my browser completely useless. When I restarted after install, all I got was a blank page. I normally get my Session Manager prompt to tell me which previous browsing session to go back to. When I typed in a webpage address, I noticed the tab suddenly had two close buttons, one on each side, rather than the one the right that's always been there. I went to several different websites from that tab, and the back/forward toolbar buttons were grayed out and wouldn't work, same with the reload button. I opened a new tab and noticed that the web address in the address bar was the same as the address in the previous tab, it wasn't blank. I still could not use the back/forward/reload buttons. I went to Preferences, checked around to see if anything changed from my settings in 19.0.2, and saw that everything was the same. I finally got so completely frustrated I re-downloaded 19.0.2 just so I could have complete functionality again.
    Is anyone else experiencing these same problems? If so, were you able to fix it somehow and what did you do to fix it? I don't like using non-current versions of Firefox, but I have no choice if I want to be able to use the damn thing.

    You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

    There have also problems been reported with session restore on Mac that possibly can be caused by first closing all open Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.
    Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them to avoid this.

  • Why does clicking the reload icon and F5 key not work for certain pages. Thanks in advance. Any help is appreciated. :)

    Cliffs:
    -Open new tabs from original page.
    -Clicking reload icon or hitting F5 will not work on new tabs, but works on original page.
    -Can "right click" reload tab or all tabs, but reload icon and F5 won't work.
    -Been using FF3.6 for months, never a problem. Just started happening 2 days ago. Updated to FF4, but problem still remains.

  • File Generate Image Assets not working for me: no Javascript Plugin :-\

    Do I need to reinstall entire Adobe PS CC 2014 application?
    The folder /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC 2014/Plug-ins/Generator/ is in fact empty when I check. In fact so is the Plug-ins folder more generally.

    Well I contacted Adobe Support via chat and after a long time getting them to understand the problem they conformed that there is no Adobe plug-in in the Plug-ins Folder, in spite of there being a Generator folder inside the Plug-ins folder it should be empty and the whole plug-in folder: it's default install state is empty.
    A reinstall did however fix the problem. Perhaps Javascript was not working, given the Dialog message.

  • Itunes not working with windows 7 in a network environment. Please help

    Hello,
    We are a Novell site and have a mixed group of computers on site. Everything from Linux, to Mac, to Windows, XP and 7 both Pro. We have the network set up that when a user logs in their "my documents folder" is redirected to a network drive. We have had no issues with this in Windows XP pro. However on Windows 7 Pro we can net get this to work. Here are the steps
    Log in as local admin with is default so mapping or anything special.
    Next we log in as our self which brings up the network mapping
    We install the program
    Then what is supposed to happen is when ever someone logs into that machine they have access to all programs and everything automatically saves to their network drive. However this is not happening. If you sign in as local admin it all works fine but as soon as you add the network portion we receive an error stating that itunes could not start due to insufficient rights.
    Can someone please help me with this.

    Your server is Novell? Try running the machine in Virtual XP mode.

  • New Photos update will not allow me to insert pictures in to iDVD? Please help

    When I open iDVD and look for photos it does not show anything even though I have photos in the new Photos program as well as the old version of iPhoto?  Please help!!!  I'm a photographer and videographer and am making a DVD of the video and photos and can't upload any of my photos to the DVD before burning.

    Sorry - been having the same problem. Please may I ask to clarify ... In order to have the new "photos" app photos appear in my iDVD project, I have to export those photos (thousands of photos) to ANOTHER folder on my hard drive??? Is there not a way to tell iDVD to "see" / "recognize" / "point to" the app photos? That doesn't seem best as I will be duplicating thousands of photos and videos. There has got to be a away for one program to "see" the other.
    Second - the response about saving an iDVD project as "save as disk image" I'm not sure I'm doing correctly. I've done it several times and all I get is an icon on my desk top that looks like an external HD. When I click on it, a folder opens w/ "AUDIO_TS" and "VIDEO_TS". What am I to do then? How do I get it to "launch in DVD"? How do I burn to a disk w/ disk utility?
    I started this process because after creating a project and burning it to disk, the voice on my video was not in sync w/ the video. It worked fine IN iDVD. Burn it to a disk and when played on my DVD player, totally out of sync and the photos are fuzzy. It plays fine on my laptop, but not on my dvd player. So I kept seeing this solution and I am lost. I thought I was doing it correctly - took a good 4 and half hours to create the "save as disk image", but once done, all I seem to get is a folder w/ 2 additional folders. Not sure what to do next.
    Please help.
