CAN'T GET ADD ONS. XPINSTALL.ENABLED DOES NOT SHOW UP IN ABOUT:CONFIG LIST.

ADD ON S TAB SHOWS LOADING, BUT NEVER SHOWS A LIST OF ADD ON S. LOOKED FOR "XPINSTALL.ENABLED" IN "ABOUT:CONFIG" SO I COULD CHANGE IT, BUT IT IS NOT THERE.

If the Get Extensions tab in about:addons isn't working then you can go to the Add-ons website and search for extensions yourself.

The xpinstall.enabled pref default to true when absent and doesn't have any real effect in preventing to obtain and install extensions unless locked to false.

My roboform toolbar has disappeared. It shows that it is enabled in add-ons but it does not show up on the browser. I am using Windows XP.

Firefox Version 22.0

Thanks for your attempted help. I went back to an earlier version of Firefox, which restored the Roboform toolbar. Then, when my automatic updater ran, the Roboform toolbar remained.
I like Firefox, but it is sometimes like a high-maintenance chick; very needy!

You can do this with "composition" widgets.

I have an old ipod shuffle and I cannot get it to sync because it does not show up in my devices list...? HELP!!!

I cannot get my old ipod shuffle to sync because it does not show up in my devices list!!! I have tried letting it die and then plugging it in and still no success!! HELP!!!

To sync via wifi you first have to connect to computer via USB and check the box in the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes that sync via wifi.
Note you can only sync with one computer. If you change syncing computers you have to restore the iPod on the second computer.

Apple TV won't connect to iTunes and does not show up in my devices list in iTunes.

My older model Apple TV won't connect to iTunes and does not show up in my devices list in iTunes. I have two Apple TVs in my house and I can't imagine that this is part of the problem but I mention it just in case. My other Apple TV is brand new and it connects to iTunes just fine. I've tried most of the "fixes" and one says to Force Sync but I can't since Apple TV isn't in my device list. Another "Fix" said to Navigate the Apple TV to Settings --> Downloads --> Check for Downloads, but when I tried that there was no option for "Downloads" under the Settings Heading. I'm at a loss. Please help. Could this be an issue with too many authorized devices? We have three iPads, two iPhones, laptop, desktop, two Apple TVs, and an iPod and most of them are syncing the same music playlists and whatnot... have I run out of rope?

hi, just posting to everyone in general..its not you, or your apple tv, it is itunes.
ok, ive had the exact same issues for weeks now, as with everyone i had done the lastest upgrade and no longer could see/sync my gen 1 appleTV.........so, i removed the upgrade and went back to the prev version, even though it was showing in my prefs under appleTV, it still wouldnt show in the side panel under devices....i gave up.
This week i was determined to get it to work! So i started from scratch, totally removed itunes and started back with version 9 and upgrade each version from there, i had no luck, ic clicked find appleTvs but it wouldnt....however i just d/l version 9.2.0.61 and BINGO!. No sooner has it opened and up popped the side panel devices list, showing my appleTV..all ready to be synced etc. I immediately panicked of course haha..and set it all up and its working perfectly.
...Only catch now is that this older version will not be compatiable with my iphone, which i do keep music on...seems we cant win. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr this will be the same for all the latest apple products.
Apple needs to allow more than one version of itunes per pc OR perhaps they could get their act together and include all of the millions of APPLETV GEN1 owners in there latest upgrading..after all, THEY made the product and THEY do sell the movies/tv shows, perhaps they could stop making all the upgrade all about the music only!......on which i might add why not incluse movies/tv shows in icloud! yet another upgrade that should be included in the APPLETV GERNERATION 1!..yes we do still exist!
at the very least, im happy ive managed to get all my movies etc onto the apple tv, where ill keep them and from now on d/l directly onto my apple tv. I usually d/l to my laptop and then send them to the appletv but while trying to get all this sorted i did a test, i d/l a movie using my appletv hoping it would somehow let itunes "find" it and getting it to show up in my device list, but it didnt work, however it did sync/send the movie to itunes.. so at least i could save a back up copy.
good luck trying, as i said this has been weeks and this is the only solution ive found so far....and going through these forums its obviouse its itunes thats the issue, NOT Our apple tvs.

Shared printer from a pc does not show up on my printer list.

Can you see the CD ripped songs in iTunes itself? Can you then right-click and select "Show in Windows Explorer"?

Firefox does not show filesystem or FTP file list

When I type "/" or "file:///" in the address bar it does not show anything. It should list my the folders in my root drive but it shows nothing. Strangely this is the same for any FTP file server I go to. It shows nothing but claims to be loaded. I think something in Firefox is missing.

I cleared the cookies and that might have done it. Comment if you have or had this problem.

Can't install any add-ons after upgrading to Firefox 4.. tried about:config, still nothing. How come?

No matter which add-on I try to install, it says, "Software Installation is currently disabled. Click enable and try again." .. I've tried clicking enable as well as going to about:config and toggling xpi.enabled.. still nothing. Please help.

Ok. Fixed it.
Had to create a new profile.
If anyone has (had) the same problem, and you have a lot of bookmarks you don't wanna lose, make sure you back them up on your old profile as a saved file--on your desktop, create a new profile, and then import them in your new profile.

I purchased an hp external cd drive, how can i boot from it? setup does not show it being connected

When i connect the external drive it is being connect to a usb port. When i go into the setup of the laptop it does not show an external drive being connected to the usb port. My cd drive that came with the laptop does work, i tried it in my laptop, but on my daughters machine the cd drive is not being shown on the computer or in Device manager. I upgrade out laptops from windows vista 32 to windows 7. The drive was working and one day my daughter went to go burn a cd and thats when we found out it is not showing on the computer. Her p/n is FE653UA#ABA - dv6910US. I tried everything to get the drive to show up on the computer but had no luck, that is why i purchased an external drive. The drive i purchased is an HP 8x external dlim muliformat dvd/cd writer.
I now need to figure out how I can boot from this external drive, can anyone help me?

Hi,
Have you read the Windows7 Upgrade Guide for dv6000/dv9000 models so generously written and provided to the community by Expert member Daniel_Potyrala?
Have you checked in the Device Manager to asee if all devices have drivers loaded?
Have you tried the Microsoft Fixit for DVD/CD drives?

Enterprise subordinate CA does not show up in certificate authorities list

After much discussion I decided the best approach was to clean eveything up and start over. I went through the KB on decommissioning an enterprise CA and Subordinate CA, install a new standalone root, and a new enterprise subordinate CA. Everything appeared
to be working with one exception. The new Enterprise Subordinate does not show up in the Certificate Authorities section of Public key services in AD Sites&Services. It does show up in AIA, CDP and Enrollment services. The standalone root is trusted and
I set up group policy with the certificate of the Enterprise Subordinate as a trusted intermediate. The templates were configured also as well as autoenrollment for computers but so far only the DCs and my workstation has received certificates. I am sure I
am missing something but after 100s of pages and artcle after article I don't see it. I ran the certutil -viewstore query and it doesn't see it either and it doesn't tell me how to fix it. Also, what is the deal with case; it seems no matter how careful I
was with upper and lower case letter AD did what it wanted and my published CA name looks like I can't figure out hows caps lock works.
Thanks in advance
[email protected]

yes, it is possible. However, you will need to make some modifications on root CA:
certutil -setreg ca\dsconfig "AD Configuration naming context"
certutil -setreg ca\dsconfigdn "AD Configuration naming context"
certutil -setreg ca\dsdomaindn "AD Forest root domain DN"
AD configuration naming context is (usually) CN=Configuration, DC=rootdomainname, DC=domainsuffix.
To extend Root CA CRL validity, in the Certification Authority MMC, select properties of Revoked Certificates folder and specify validity period (something about 6-12 months). Make sure that Delta CRLs are NOT enabled. Save settings and restart certificate
services.
Then you should republish all CRLs and publish CRL to Active Directory:
certutil -dspublish -f path\RootCAcrl.crl

Can't print because I have no "print.print_printer" entry in my about:config list?

I haven't been able to print anything from Firefox for about a month now. My printer works just fine, as I can print from Internet Explorer and Iron browsers without issue. This ONLY happens when I'm using the Firefox browser. Please do not refer me to the article about printer issues - I have already exhausted everything on that list, without resolve.
I still sometimes use my older computer (same OS - Windows 7 Home Premium) and I checked the about:config list to see what it has that my current computer does not. I found MANY entries for my Canon MX340 computer! Why doesn't my current computer have ANY of these? The printer works perfectly fine with the older computer and Firefox, so I am completely at a loss here. Any suggestions?

Firefox 6.0 and later use '''print_printer''' for the last used printer.
In Firefox 5.0 and earlier versions '''''print.print_printer''''' was that preference name.
As explained here - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-printing-problems-firefox#w_reset-firefox-printer-setting
My recommendation is to '''reset all Firefox printer settings''' as explained on that support page..

Yahoo toolbar appeared without my consent. Can't get rid of it. Does not appear in list of add-ons or in list of programs installed for uninstall. (Win7; FFx5) Please help me delete this annoyance.)

I was prompted to update Java. I got a YAHOO toolbar which I did and do not want. I can't get rid of it. It does not appear on the Add-on list, not in the programs list (to uninstall). Can't find anything with Yahoo in the name. I do not want to use View, because it keeps coming back into view without my consent -- I want it gone permanently.
The uninstall directions in Yahoo help call for click on pencil tool (which tool is not found on this toolbar). Firefox instructions say go to Add-on list, but the Yahoo bar is not there. There are several Java add-ons, but I don't know what they are and what happens if they are uninstalled.
Win 7; Firefox 5.0; Yahoo toolbar ver 2.3.8.20110620112826
Perhaps it is disguised as something else. If so please tell me what to uninstall.

Try RIGHT clicking on different areas of the toolbars on Firefox, mainly try right clicking on/around the url bar & forward/back navigation buttons. When you get the correct spot if will give you a menu with the toolbars available (whether or not they're active) and a couple other options. Just uncheck the Yahoo one & you should be all set.
As you say though it may be some other bar disguised as a yahoo bar. Any chance you can get a screen shot of it & post it here?

Where can I get a digital certifcate that does not require a USB key?

Where can I get a digital certificate that I can use with Adobe Acrobat that does not require a USB hardware key?
I have been able to sign PDF documents with Adobe Acrobat versions 6 and 9 with my code signing certificate. When I use my code signing certificate Acrobat says the validity of the document certification is unknown.

Per existing standards (RFC 5280) code signing certificates may not be used for signing. For a number of versions Acrobat had a bug that ignored this requirement. Starting with version 11.0.07 Acrobat (and Reader) enforces this requirement.
