Google toolbar doesn't work with Firefox. How to Fix?

The Google toolbar doesn't work with my current version of Firefox. When I went to update, the Google toolbar was removed and I can't get it back. How do I fix this so I can still use Firefox?

Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version does work pretty good in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension. But not every feature works 100%.

The Google Toolbar doesn't work with Firefox 5 and all my bookmarks are saved in the toolbar. How do I go back to version 4?

Unfortunately any enhancements that you've made with FF5 don't outweigh the loss of my bookmarks in the Google Toolbar. How do I go back to FF4?

Install the following Add-on until Google releases a new version of their toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 5. Most Add-ons that worked with Firefox 4 should still work with Firefox 5, but the developers need to update a line in their Add-on's code to indicate with which versions of Firefox the Add-on is compatible. The following Add-on adds a "Compatibility" button in your Add-ons > Extensions that you may need to click after installing it and restarting Firefox.

I have just upgraded to Firefox 5 and google toolbar doesn't work anymore. How can I go back?

What details?
''locking - asked & answered multiple time - moderator''

Thats because the old installed version of googletoolbar has a file named install.rdf that declares the max supported version of firefox to be 4.0.
To fix this ,just open the install.rdf file with notepad and change maxVersion from 4.0.* to 6.* (see the image i've also uploaded)
Now, in order to find the correct install.rdf file do the following:
Go to folder : C:\Users\[your user name here]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[sometext].default and search for the install.rdf file (im using windows 7)
Windows search will find many install.rdf files (one for each addon you have installed on firefox) so make sure that you find the install.rdf that has the line
Google Toolbar for Firefox
in it. For this install.rdf file just rename the max version as stated above , restart firefox..and vuala! Google toolbar is back!

Google voice doesn't work with os 10.10.2 and firefox 35.0.1?

Google voice used to work with Snow Leopard and FF. Now with Yosemite, I place a call, pick my 'e' mail address, and nothing happens. What am I missing. I did download the googlevoice and video setup.dmg file. and have the google talk plug in 5.40.2.0 always activate.

Same, in the meantime I can offer the new Hello feature in Firefox:

Laptop Mouse touchpad doesn't work with Firefox 4

Previously in Firefox 3, I could use the touchpad on my laptop to middle click, and scroll. Now it won't work with Firefox 4. When I try to use the scroll feature it registers the mouse as scrolling, but the page doesn't move at all in Firefox. When I try to open a link in a new tab using middle click it shows the auto scroll but even then the orientation is wrong as well. When trying to close a tab using the middle click it shows the same left to right auto scroll instead. It works fine with a normal mouse, but with a touchpad it doesn't work at all. I have also tried using drivers to fix the problem, but that was not the issue.

well, if you stick to firefox 4, then i'd say, well, babylon in my memories, it offers a online prompt method of translation, supporting tens of languages, similar to google translate webpages, the url is http://translation.babylon.com/ you can keep firefox 3.x and 4.0 in the same time in your windows. firefox 3.x to 4.0 update is not compulsory, so use the one you feel good with.

Google Toolber does not work with Firefox 4

I just downloaded Firefox 4 and Google Toolbar does not work. I removed and re-downloaded it and it still does not work. I can't even uninstall via the wrench. Is there a version of toolbar that works with Firefox 4?

I am having trouble with the Google search bar. The Google tool bar works fine for me.

Did you know that Google toolbar doesn't work properly in FF rc1? I have filed a bug report to Google about this

The Google toolbar doesn't recognize a left mouse click when selecting a 'suggestion'. It's OK using the keyboard, however. I have filed a bug report with Google, but as this is an important extension thought you should know.

Window.close doesn't work with Firefox

I have used the code from the followinging reference on OTN to close my window:
Closing brower window
It works fine for IE, but not for Firefox. How can I make it work with Firefox?

Hello,
I use a couple of steps to get windows to close in Firefox. Firstly, I set win=top and win.opener=top, as below:
function closeWindow()
win=top;
win.opener=top;
win.close();
But more importantly, you need to set a Firefox preference setting:
Locate your Firefox preferences file - in Windows XP/2000, the path is usually C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\, where xxxxxxxx is a random string of 8 characters. Open the file prefs.js, and add the following line to the end of the file: user_pref("dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows", true);
Which is a bit fiddly, but the best way I've found so far...

Comcast email doesn't work with firefox 26. I can't get a full inbox, get to my preferences to change, drop downs need to use arrows to get to

firefox 26 doesn't work with comcast email. won't keep me signed in; won't show whole inbox in either full or lite; won't allow me to get to preferences; drop downs only work with arrows. I could just keep going.
Earlier this week they worked fine.

Be sure to delete the login.comcast.net cookie, it is not near the other comcast and xfinity cookies.

MobileMe preferences button and menu doesn't work with Firefox 4 on Mac OS X 10.6.6

When I login to my MobileMe account I have two buttons on the top right of the page: Preferences and My Account name.
Both I can select but when I do I cannot press either one of the menu entries that show. So I cannot change anything or create folders in iDisk for instance. All did work on Firefox version 3.6. It also works on Safari.
What settings do I have wrong? I like Firefox more than Safari.
Thanks.

You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

Google toolbar doesn't work in v5. Can I rollback to earlier version of firefox?

I'd like to rollback to my previous version of Firefox so I can use my Google toolbar.
It doesn't work in v5 and although Google are working on it, it may take a while.
How do I do that? Indeed, is it possible?
I'm running Windows 7.

Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version does work in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension, I tried it myself due to the large number of postings about GTB problems.

How do I switch back to 3.6? I use Norton 360 and it doesn't work with Firefox 4. I have uninstalled 4 and try to reinstall 3.6 from my downloads but it deleted 3.6 exe when it installed 4. I WANT 3.6 BACK.

Norton isn't supported on Firefox 4. I don't trust ANY web browser that I can't use Norton on. I had no complaints with it when I had Firefox 3.6. I want to reinstall 3.6 but can't. I have looked all over for a download but every one comes back to Firefox 4.

Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
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

Att.mail doesn't work with firefox yet is great with IE or google chrome. Won't delete,move or reply

yahoo comes up, then in switching to mail, the mail appears and I can look at each piece. However, the delete, move, and reply buttons are not responding. Also, I can't generate a new message. The system works fine with IE or Google Chrome.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
