Google Earth plug in is not recognized by Firefox (works in Safari and Chrome)

For some reason Google Earth has stopped working in Firefox, and I get a note that I have to download the plug in. (It works fine in Chrome and Safari.)
I followed the 'solution' in the forum without any success.
When I search for "Google Earth Browser plugin" in Finder, I find SEVEN matching that search under "Kind" in Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plugins . . .but that "Kind" is associated with plugins that are "Named" something else - e.g., Adobe, DivX, Flash, Flip4Mac, etc. (Weird).

I too had this issue, solved by updating Java to 7u25 and reinstalling Google Earth.
1. Search the web using "java se download", select "Java SE Downloads - Oracle" which took me to "http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html" I wish to thank the company "Secunia" for directing me the Oracle page.
2. Search the web using "google earth plugin reinstall" to reinstall, which took me to "http://www.google.com/earth/plugin/error.html" where there is a message and a link to the reinstall.
I retraced my steps, going back to the "http://www.google.com/earth/plugin/error.html" and still gives me the "error"; not to worry, look at your plugins and google earth plugin 7.1.1.1871 is up-to-date.
Re-posted from "Plugin check 'Update Now' link redirects to itself" with updated info.

Google Finance gadge on iGoogle does not seem to work in Firefox, works on IE and Chrome.

I am running Windows 72-bit with the latest patches. Also, running Firefox 8.0.1. For the last couple of weeks, I have noticed that iGoogle page loads ok, but the Google Finance gadget does not load. It just shows zeros in three rows. At the same time, both IE and Chrome work just fine, so the problem may be with Google gadget interaction with Firefox.

Flash not working in Safari (and Chrome and Firefox) - possible solution

Yesterday my Mac crashed (actually when I was away from it) and when it rebooted, Adobe Flash would freeze any web browser it ran in (Safari, Firefox and Chrome - which surprised me as I thought it used a different version of Flash). Great with so many live-blogs happening in the world of news right now.
I tried all the usual suspects:
* Deleted browser caches;
* Uninstalled Flash (Adobe have an uninstaller available) and reinstalled the same version;
* Uninstalled Flash and reinstalled the newest version;
* Made sure I had no duplicate fonts (I did) as I'd experienced problems with this with an iPhoto upgrade;
* Checked recent upgrades (iWeb and Camera updates) to see what they installed (nothing dangerous);
* Fixed permissions (they needed it);
* Tried running Safari under 32-bit (didn't think that would work as I hadn't updated Flash itself);
* Signed in as another user.
None worked.
As a last resort, I downloaded the latest version of the Onyx utility (freeware) and ran the Maintenance scripts, then, under Cleaning, deleted System cache, User cache, Internet stuff (left the cookies), and Font caches (you'll need to Close all the dialog boxes then Restart at the end). Expect a long reboot.
That worked.
It may not work for everyone but may for someone.

I was having the same issue. I logged into another account, a plain no add-ons account and found that I could view flash content with Safari OK. That mean that there was some preference file in my primary account that was the culprit.
Here's how to cull out the bad apple (pun intended):
Trouble Shooting Preferences
Go to HD/Users/Your_name/Library. Move the Preferences folder (in its entirety) to the Desktop and make a second copy of it so you have Copy A and B. Now try the the process again and determine if problem is fixed.
If the problem IS fixed, then go to the new Prefs folder that the OS will have created and open it up.
Open Copy B on the Desktop and select all of the items inside. Drag them into the open new library folder. When the Copy window comes up check the Apply to All check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here. That will keep the new files created and bring back all of the others.
If the problem is NOT fixed, trash the new Prefs folder and move the intact Copy A folder back to the Library folder .
This cleared it up. I ended up with 16 items that were not put back in the preference folder.
Hope this will work for some of you.

Formatting text (bold, italics, etc) in webmail client does not work in Firefox; works in IE and Chrome

I use the Smarsh webmail client for my company's email service.
I have been using Firefox in the office for quite some time, and only recently has this issue come up.
When composing emails using the Smarsh client, I cannot format text (using bold, italics, or underline) using the buttons built in to the client. When I highlight text and click a formatting button, the cursor just moves to the end of the line.
Using keyboard shortcuts to edit the formatting works sometimes, but is sporadic (sometimes formatting PREVIOUSLY selected text but not the currently selected text).
I have tried downgrading to Firefox 16, 17, and 18 (as this problem has only come up in the last couple of weeks, and Firefox 19 was release I believe on 2/13), but this did not solve the problem either.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Hello jr_2005.
Thanks for your reply.
As you can see in the image below, I load plguin Google Earth.
What I really need to know is how to display this other image of the Earth. As was done in the example above site.
Sorry for not express well what I tried to say. English is not my native language.
If I can see an example of how to get this image of the earth and the location of any location will be easy to understand the concept.
My big difficulty is that I'm not very familiar with LabWindows is much less programming for MS Windows, but I have done some things, however I never used ActiveX, this is the reason for the difficulty.
Well, as I wrote in a previous post, I am aware programming microcontrollers in C language and feel comfortable with LabWindows.
Thanks again for your reply.

I am having trouble displaying Google Earth Plug-in

My embedded Google Earth plugin suddenly stopped working in Firefox. It's worked fine for months, still works in IE and Chrome, but suddenly it won't display in Firefox. Here is the link:
http://www.miraclecenter.org/services/study_groups.html

Morbus:
You don't understand the Question!! Hence your solution has a high probability of failure. What the original post was saying is that the Google Earth Viewer Plug in, which is an embedded widget provided by Google isn't working in FF 6.3.10 either. I am having the same issues and it works fine in IE and Chrome. It was working fine for me too, but not now.
You really think if I call or email Google they will fix the problem? I really doubt it. Seems to me like they would prefer FF not to run the embedded player. I could be wrong though.
Do you still suggest that I contact Google and ask them to fix "there" code so FF can display and run the Embedded Google Earth Player? Would love to hear another solution if possible.
Thanks

I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please

I have Photoshop CS5.1 (bought in 2011). The photoshop Camera Raw plug-in is not recognizing the format of my new Nikon D610. I updated the version of my Camera Raw plug in and am still getting this message when trying to open images in photoshop. Please help.

This link shows that ACR 8.3 supports the Nikon D610 and 6.7.1 was the final version for CS5.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
So you can upgrade to CS6 and ACR 8.7.1
or using the DNG converter, convert your Nikon raw files to dng format to open in CS5.
Here is the download link: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
or Windows: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1
And here is a great video tutorial on how to use the converter.

Google Earth Plug-In and Safari 5.1.2

Why can't I install google earth plug-in on Safari 5.1.2 ?
I can't explore google maps in earth view mode since I updated Safari.
I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it without success.
I've also installed Google Earth but nothing has improved in google maps wich still doesn't display the earth view mode.
I install the plug-in as I always do, but now it seems to fail.
After the installation, it is like I didn't do anything.
Does anybody know anything about it?

Try this...
Go to ~/Library/Preferences.
Move these files to the Trash.
com.google.GoogleEarthPlugin.plist
com.google.GoogleEarthPlus.plist
Empty the Trash, restart your Mac, try reinstalling the software.

Tutorials on the Apple Website play in Safari and Chrome, but not always in Firefox. Java and Flash plug ins are up to date.

I was trying to play the Time Machine video tutorial on the Apple Website (I have an imac 10.6.6) and it won't play in Firefox, but it will in Safari and Chrome. This has happened before but then seemed to fix itself. Other videos (Youtube for eg.) play fine. All plugs (Java and Flash) are up to date. Just wondering why this could happen.

I have had this problem for a few days, no sound in Firefox, but IE and WMP (offline) have sound, this is a Firefox ONLY problem, so the volumes are all set correctly and the drivers and needed files are there, I've tried every fix that people have suggested on Google like checking the flash player settings, creating the "missing.reg" registry file and importing it, etc...
nothing works, I may just have to switch to Safari or Chrome, I watch a lot of video online (Youtube, ESPN3, NFL.com, etc.) so this is a huge problem...

I'm trying to register for the free 30 day trial.
I get
"Your address was not recognized. Please check your entry and try again."
My address works fine for the postman, deliveries etc. Another case of a programmer who knows better!
What are the address requirements on the sign-up form, so I can proceed?

You need to call T-Mobile or visit a T-Mobile retail store.
