Custom toolbar keeps disappearing in 4 beta 12

Just switched from Firefox 3.6 to 4 beta 12, using Mac Snow Leopard. On my old version, I had a custom toolbar with the search box, various extensions as well. This has disappeared in 4 beta 12.
I created a new custom toolbar, but every time I restart Firefox the custom toolbar disappears. It also does not appear in the View/Toolbars menu. I use a number of functions at work, so I really need this toolbar! Thanks.

I had this problem too. I don't know what it is about me but no one ever responds to my questions, so no one answered when I posted one about this. But I *FINALLY* got in touch with a live chat volunteer the other day, and found out it was one of my toolbars made by Conduit. The Conduit Engine and the Zynga Toolbar are both made by Conduit and both contributed to this problem. Check if you have ANY add-ons made by Conduit, and disable them and see if that helps. If it doesn't, try disabling addons/resetting toolbars in safe mode AND deleting localstore.rdf. Then restart Firefox in normal mode, make a custom toolbar, and restart again. If the toolbar stays that time, then enable your add-ons ONE AT A TIME (i.e. restarting after each one), until the problem reappears. When it does…you know which add-on was the culprit. XD And if it doesn't reappear…then congratulations. XD

Acrobat X toolbar keeps disappearing in IE9.0

Having trouble with Acrobat X tool bars. I had to retrograde from MSIE (Internet Explorer) 10.0 back to 9.0 due to other issues. Now my Acrobat Toolbar in IE 9.0 keeps disappearing. When it is present, all works fine. When it is gone, I cannot open webpage PDFs even with <right click - open in another tab>. Help.

Thanks. When I try to open a link, IE 9.0 "tries" to open a new tab and then closes it and goes back to the original tab. So basically it tries, and then nothing happens at all (i.e. it does not open in Acrobat or Reader either). Do I need to unclick "Display in Browser"? What about those times when the Acrobat tool bar does not load in IE 9.0, will it still have that functionality? Should I reload the 32-bit version of IE 9.0?

Why are Add-on Buttons along with the Toolbar keep disappearing in the Firefox4,5&9?

I arrange all the Add-on Buttons on a Toolbar created for this specific purpose(Options - Toolbar Layout - Add New Toolbar). I recently upgraded from Firefox 3.6 to Firefox 12 and that's when the trouble started.All the Add-on Buttons along with the Toolbar started disappearing.I checked if any of the add-on (one by one)is causing this problem but found nothing.But the Add-on Buttons work fine when arranged on the Status Bar(now the so called Addon Bar).
Later I found out that this particular problem exists in all the Browsers based on Firefox's latest version(Pale Moon,Cometbird,Wyzo,Epic etc). That means something is causing this toolbar to disappear in the latest versions of Firefox(i.e., Firefox 4,5,10 and Firefox 12). So please help me to rectify this problem.I am impressed by the improvements made in the latest versions of Firefox but due to this problem Firefox has become useless for me.
Don't tell me about "places.sqlite" "localstore.rdf" and all that shit.I've searched the whole God damned Web,Tried changing to new Profile,Deleted localstore.rdf and saw whether it will work.This is my last resort. Firefox 3.6 was a great browser.Within a span of one year you morons have jumped from Firefox v3.6 to Firefox v12! Not allowing the Extension ecosystem to stabilize.Giving no time to apps developers to catchup.The App developers have fallen behind and half of my addons are not working.You people have become an example on how to kill a great product.The guys at MS might be watching in delight the Firefox's harakiri!
Thank You,
Helme.

Since I only ever put add-on buttons on the main Navigation toolbar (or the Add-ons bar) rather than my own custom bar, I haven't experienced this myself.
Can you detect a pattern with particular add-ons' buttons (or native Firefox buttons) being removed time and again?
In your new profile test, did you add extensions one at a time (one per restart of Firefox), or otherwise try to isolate particular add-ons as the issue? (Bugzilla has at least one example of an extension causing a problem with custom toolbars: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=667627 667627 – divx html5 removes added toolbars]. I don't see this particular extension on your list.)
I wonder whether some extensions now include some kind of grooming function or incompatibility that removes their buttons from custom toolbars? It would be easier to investigate with some problem examples.

Customize buttons added to toolbar keep disappearing

Steps to reproduce:
1. Menu -> Customize
2. Drag some of the extra icons to the top right toolbar (next to the menu icon)
Now, some icons constantly keep disappearing. As a consequence, I need to re-add them quite regularly.
Why are some icons simply not staying at the location in the toolbar where I put them?
Thanks for your help!

You can try to click the "Restore Defaults" button in the Customize palette.
You can try to reset user the "browser.uiCustomization.state" on the <b>about:config</b> page via the right-click context menu to the default value in case there is a problem with the pref.
This pref stores the toolbar customization is current releases.
If you keep having problems with preferences, see:

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file.

Safari's Toolbar keeps disappearing.

This is really odd.
I tend to keep a lot of pages open in Safari. Usually I have about four windows with about a half dozen tabs in each window.
Lately I'm finding that, when I bring a window to the front and try to navigate in one of the tabs, I'm not able to because the whole toolbar is missing. There's just an empty space between the window title and the Bookmarks Bar. This empty space will collapse and expand if I select Show/Hide Toolbar from the View menu, but the buttons and the address and search fields don't reappear. This applies to every tab in the window, but all the other windows are fine, and if I open a new window, it appears with its toolbar intact. I can even drag all the tabs from the old window into the new window, and the toolbar remains visible. It only seems to disappear while the window is in the background.
Is anybody else seeing this? I couldn't find any posts about it, but it's the kind of thing that someone might just think they did something wrong, and closing and re-openeing Safari made the problem go away.

HI David,
Try Safari Mainenance
Just emptying the cache and resetting Safari might help.

Bookmarks toolbar keeps disappearing, site zoom doesn't persist

Two problems with FF4 RC1.
It starts up with the standard windows title bar, and the bookmarks toolbar is empty until I turn it off and back on.
Page zooms weren't imported either, and they keep resetting after I close firefox.
I didn't have these problems with the FF4 Betas.

After a week of thinking I had solved the problem, it has come back - my bookmarks toolbar doesn't always load (occasionally does). I can always get it to load when it hasn't done by using 'Customize' and unticking Bookmarks Toolbar and then re-ticking it. Most annoying.

My custom ringtones keep disappearing

I have set custom ringtones (for certain contacts) in my iPhone 6+. All the ringtones were downloaded from iTunes. I set a custom ringtone on the phone, but later the ringtone changes to the "opening" tone in place of all my custom tones. It only does this for custom tones, not those set to the phone's default ring.
I've noticed that it happens after I access a contact on my iMac. If I use only the iPhone to to view contact information, the custom tone stays there. But if I access a contact on the iMac, then go back to the iPhone, once again the ringtone is the one called "Opening."
I have synced the phone with iTunes on the computer, and the ringtones are in my iTunes library.
On a related note, the Contacts app on my iMac will not allow me to set ringtones for a contact. Again, the ringtones are there in iTunes, I just cannot use them.
Any suggestions?

The exact same thing happens to me. Twice I downloaded a minions ringtone and text tone, and twice it vanished.... I am not wasting any more money to feed these people, as they dont seem to care that they are taking your money each time. WHAT THE **** IS HAPPENING APPLE? WHY ARE OUR TONES DISAPPEARING? PLEASE ANSWER.....
I have had to resort back to the old car claxon horn .... (yawn)

Custom swatches keep disappearing

Hello,
I am using Illustrator CS4 14.0.0
I have saved a Workspace that includes a User Defined swatch. (see attachment).
Even though I have saved the workspace, when reopening the program, it goes back to the regular swatches that come with the program. Are we not able to save custom swatch panel in a workspace?
Thank you!!!!

Thank you Mike, and Monika.
Monika, thanks for the link. Great info there.
Mike, checking Persistant seemed to have worked for me. I quit the program, reopened and it was still there. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks!!!

Toolbar keeps disappearing everytime I open a new PDF

This has just happened by magic, my toolbars don't appear when I open a new pdf in acrobat pro 8. Every time I want to see the tool bar I have to go to view and select view toolbar, annoying when I view so many different pdf's in one day. It's driving me nuts. Please can someone help?

I waited for a reply from a so called Adobe expert, but no help came to my rescue. So in the end I did a uninstal of acrobat pro 8 and deleted all trace from my hard drive. Then I deleted all trace of the preferences and acrobat user data. Then I installed the software again and the toolbars have now apperared. I'm not saying this is the correct way to solve this problem, but it worked for me.

Safari Toolbar Keeps Disappearing. How Do I Lock It In Place?

After launching Safari each morning I typically have to select View > Toolbar, or just use the keyboard shortcut, before I can start surfing the web.
The problem also occurs sometimes when I select File > New Window, or using the shortcut, the toolbar will be missing then.
Is there a way to stop the toolbar from being removed automatically?
Is Apple aware of this as a bug or should I file a bug report perhaps?
Thanks,
DAN

Hi DAN
the common cause of this, is users having added a toolbar, or application that has added something to your mac.
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
To which I would add that the SIMBL folder might have plugins related to other add-ons or applications.... not just the Conduit one.
These are the likely places to look, but also check
Home/Library/Input Managers/
Home/Library/Internet Plug Ins/

Toolbar keeps disappearing at startup

I have a nagging issue with Safari on my MacBook Pro. Every time I start it, my windows open without the tool bar (including the space for the URL). I can turn it on by selecting View>Show Toolbar, but I want it on permanently. I have already tried deleting com.apple.safari.plist, as well as resetting Safari.
Anything else I should try to rectify this?

HI Brad,
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
And make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.

New toolbar keeps disappearing after updating to 3.6.24

I have had to redo a new toolbar twice already after doing an update for Mozilla. I am running Windows 7 Home premium on a desktop:

Yes, I kept putting buttons on it. I did it 4 times before I decided to run recovery and set back to prior to update and problem solved. Checked help for updates and no updates were listed. Believe update I ran was a virus since still running same version

Safari Mac Toolbar keeps disappearing - help!

Each time I start Safari, the toolbar is missing and I have to go into the VIEW menu and turn it back on. Each time a new window pops up, same thing.
I have tried ensuring that all windows have the toolbar before closing it down, but this has not helped.
This just started about two weeks ago.
Anyone have some ideas? I had installed nothing new.

Why do the icons on the Yahoo toolbar keep disappearing? The cog does not refresh.

This happens continually. I posted this question about a week ago and it miraculously corrected itself. Now it has happened again.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Whu is this happening and what is the solution.
