Google news buttons no longer working

I'm still having some problems with Google News that I asked about in an earlier question (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/947273)
In Firefox 18 and 19, the buttons to expand / contract the news items on http://news.google.com/ are no longer work (and some no longer show up).
A similar issue was (supposedly) fixed as referenced in this thread:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2576447
But the fix (and workarounds) do not seem to work.
The only way I've found to cure the problem is to change the cookie policy:
network.cookie.lifetimePolicy set to 1
but that changes my settings to normal (always allow cookies until they expire) instead of to ask me every time.
Any ideas on how to make it work properly or to track down what else should be changed?

Then you will have to stay with that setting and having cookies behave as session cookies (Keep until: I close Firefox) isn't sufficient then you can look on the Add-ons site for a cookie manager extension.
Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.

  • My lock button no longer works on my ipod touch and now i have all kinds of problems with it freezing and kicking me out of apps. Is there any way to get this fixed and were would i go to get it fixed?

    Please Help!!!! I have an ipod touch 4th gen.  and since the last update the lock button no longer works, this has caused it to have a lot of problems now like freezing all the time, kicking me out of almost all my apps, some times even when if locks on its own its not locked and buttons with be pushed in my pocket, and this causes the battiery to die fast.   I really love my ipod and would like to just get it fix if possible for a reasonable about of money. Anyone know of a place I can get it fixed in Ft Lauderdale Fl area or is there something I can do?

    Have you tried:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:

    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

  • HT2188 home button no longer working after upgrade to io6 on my iphone4...any ideas to fix this problem

    home button no longer working after upgrade to ios6 software on my iphone4..anything i can do to frix this or apple send me a new device.  phone no good without a home button

    The button's broken.  S**t happens.  Apple will replace your phone.  If in waranty it will be free of charge.  If not, you will pay $149. 
    You can elect to have it repaired at a 3rd party shop near you if you choose, but this will void all warranty if there's any left.

  • Standby button no longer works after upgraded OS from 4.... to 5.0.0.484

    Hi all.  I am new to BB and have a Tour 9630.  After "upgrading" my OS yesterday the former "standby" (mute) button no longer works.  I tried to find a place to assign "standby" mode to the left or right shortcut key but no luck.  Also, I noticed my Opera browser is significantly different (and more annoying) because clicking the trackball goes back....  Any thoughts on either issue would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Ok, so apparently I haven't looked at my phone too closely. The old Pearl model only had one button up top, which you used for both mute and standby. The new Tour apparently has two- the one on the right is the mute and the one on on the left is the lock.
    On the Pearl you could press * to lock and *+[Green talk button] to unlock. On the Tour the only option you have to unlock is to press the lock/unlock button on the top left. It's pretty clear when you look at the top of the phone. However I usually have mine in a silicone case, which does have markings but they're very hard to make out.
    So the phone locks and unlocks just fine, even after the OS 5.0 upgrade. However, I'm still wary about getting rid of standby mode if, in fact, it is a battery-saver. (Which I'm pretty sure it is)
    Bring back standby mode, Blackberry!!

  • Back button no longer works in some specific situations; also, it appears that clearing cache isn't working.

    The "back" button no longer works in certain specific situations on certain specific websites -- especially on the very website on which I need to use it very frequently. This has been going on for a couple of weeks.
    Also, I noticed today that the "clear cache now" command doesn't seem to be working. Formerly, when I cleared the cache, I had to re-login to those websites that normally "remember" my login (because clearing the cache erased that "memory") -- but today, after using the "clear cache now" command, those websites still "remember" my login, which leads me to believe the cache didn't get cleared. Is there any other way to check whether it got cleared?
    I was attempting to clear the cache in the faint hope that this might help the above "back" button problem, as no one has yet given me a solution for this that has worked. One person suggested having Firefox re-create the possibly damaged "places.sqlite" and "places.sqlite-journal" files. I tried this, but there was no change to the problem.
    I think this problem started around the time I had a few Firefox crashes while using YouTube and doing something else on the computer at the same time.
    I just today learned about the "crash signature" -- how to look it up, and to include it in a forum question. However, the crash log did not show these recent crashes, only some others from a few months ago. So, I'm unable to show the crash signature for this.
    I'm guessing there's a chance that upgrading to a newer version of Firefox might fix this problem -- but I hesitate to do that, because it occurs to me that it also may be possible that changing the program before fixing this might make it harder to fix. I don't have enough knowledge of this software to know which is more likely, and I don't like to try things at random, in ignorance of the possible results. Also, after reading today several other forum comments from people who are unhappy with their Firefox upgrades, I hesitate to upgrade for that reason, also.

  • Why does my button no longer work in Flash Player 8?

    Hi,
    I have built a site in Flash MX a while ago. Now I’d
    like to upgrade things a bit while testing the new Adobe Flash CS3.
    To be able to use a new function (“anti-alias for
    readability”) the program warns me that “this feature
    is not supported by Flash Player 6. To use this feature, you must
    target Flash player 8.”
    So I change the setting to Flash Player 8, leaving
    Actionscript to version 2.0.
    However, now one of my main menu buttons no longer works!
    When I change settings back to Flash Player 6, things are fine
    again. What am I overlooking?
    Below is the script for the button (which has an instance
    name). Does anything change with the actionscript in CS3?
    Thanks for any advise!
    on (rollOver) {
    gotoAndPlay("s1");
    on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
    gotoAndPlay("s2");
    on (release) {
    _root.Play();

    That's it! It works fine again. Thanks a lot, you made my
    night!

  • Just upgraded to Firefox 10. Google Finance charts no longer work. They do work in IE. Updated Adobe Flash player to latest. IE works. Firefox 10 doesn't.

    Just upgraded to Firefox 10 on a Window7 64 bit PC. Google Finance charts no longer work. Checked the web for similar. Updated to latest compatible Adobe Flash player 32 bit as suggested. Flash player works. I can see finance charts in IE, but not Firefox 10. I can see finance charts on Yahoo in Firefox, but not Google finance charts. Main chart at google.com/finance is displayed. Individual stock charts don't.

  • I woke up this morning and google and gmail no longer work in firefox. I get the endless loop error

    I woke up this morning and google and gmail no longer work in firefox. I get the endless loop error.
    I have the latest version of firefox and it is running under win 7 pro.
    it was working great since I installed it 3 weeks ago and I use it every day.
    the error reads:
    The page isn't redirecting properly
    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
    This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
    However my cookies are still enabled and and i have never changed my settings

  • "prev"and "next" buttons no longer work on Yahoo/other slideshows. Still work in Chrome.

    In updating for FFX 6 and 7, the next and prev buttons no longer work in slideshows on Yahoo news and similar sites. Sometimes the status bar shows the links as javascript: void or :null. Sometimes longer links. All javaconsole add-ins are shown as incompatible with these version of FFX.

    i woudnt suggest it, but if your warranty is up it could just be a bad connection from the wheel...what generation do you have? my 4th generation 20 gig ceased to function and it was because somehow one of the cables had a bad connection. i took it to the apple store and they gave me an estimate for something i wasnt willing to pay on a 2 year old ipod so i just winged dissasembleing it and after taking apart the whole thing and reassembling it worked fine.

  • Play/pause mouse button no longer works since update?

    I have a mouse with several buttons, one of which I customized to be "Play/Pause". This was great for iTunes -- if I was in Firefox or something, I could click it and immediately play/pause the song.
    However, with the new version of iTunes, this button no longer works, neither outside of iTunes nor inside. The button still works with other programs that it used to (eg, VLC), so it's specific to iTunes.
    My hopes aren't high, but is there any chance of solving this?

  • Google Maps features no longer work or are extremely slow

    After upgrading my 1st gen iPhone to 2.0.x, many things don't work as they should. Either at all or there is an incredible delay before working.
    One issue is that after you've created directions in Google maps from point A to point B, if you want to reverse the directions, the reverse (s-shaped) button no longer works.
    Also the bookmarks button is very very delayed, as is contacts and the + button to add anything.

  • Why are the back/forwards buttons no longer working after upgrade?

    Hi, I recently upgraded from Firefox 3.5 (I believe) to Firefox 4.0.1 and now the back and forwards buttons no longer work. I tried resetting the settings under the toolbars > customize, etc. That didn't work. FYI, I'm using a mac. Any solutions? Thanks in advance...

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
