Google Toolbar is blank in FF 3.6.10 on MacBook Pro running latest OS. Preferences look strange in settings.

On MacBook Pro, running the latest OS, Google Toolbar is entirely blank. Setting preferences shows duplicated settings icons on the left with no "Close" button at bottom.

Cannot click on gmail icon, google maps icon, ect... there is just a blank bar and you can do nothing.

Do you have the latest version of the Google Toolbar?
'''7.1.20110512W''' is the latest, as far as I know.

Why is Google Toolbar blank. It used to work.

Under Tools, Add-ons it is enabled. Under View, Toolbars, it is selected. Yet there are no buttons to add and the whole toolbar is blank.

Since installing a firefox update, my browser no longer opens with 9 most visited, by google toolbar

opening my browser, I got, until yesterday, 9 screen shots showing my most visited websites. This service is provided by google toolbar. OPTIONS are set up to show this, but all i can get is a blank page or google search page.

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed. 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter 
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' 
Filter = '''general.useragent.''' 
Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. 
Then restart Firefox

I often get a Google toolbar appearing in the middle of a Firefox web page. How do I delete all Google features from my Firefox browser?

When using Firerfox to surf the web, instead of going to the address that I typed in the address bar, I often go to a blank page with a Google toolbar in the middle of the page.

You may have a malware problem if you get unrelated pop-ups opening or are redirected to unrequested websites.
Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. 
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.

My Google Toolbar is not visible in Firefox 3.6

I'm working on Windows 7 andGoogle toolbar is 7.1.
I've deleted the files in the profile folder as suggested but it's still not visible.
When I go to view toolbar the google toolbar is ticked and there is a blank space under firefox toolbar, when I untick the google toolbar this space is removed.
Please advice

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%.

Refresh button is missing from location bar and bookmarks toolbar is blank when I first start FF30

When I start Firefox 30, my bookmarks toolbar is blank. I have to deselect it in View > toolbars then reselect it and they appear.
Also my refresh button at the far right of the location bar has disappeared and all I see is a magnifying glass.
Another issue I now have is that when I copy and paste the URL for any page into the location bar, this then triggers a Google search and doesnt go directly to the page associated with the URL.
I have tried renaming the FF profile and uninstalling/reinstalling FF but this hasnt resolved.
Any pointers to what my next step should be would be most welcome.
Im using Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit

Hi Tora Bisu,
Thanks for the reply, however this didnt help me because you didnt tell me where to find the setting "hide urls stop/reload button", and i couldnt find it myself.
However I did resolve the issue myself by disabling addons one by one and reenabling them til I discovered the culprit.
The culprit as i discovered was the Classic Theme Restorer, which has now been duly disabled and will not be used again.

Why doesn't the google toolbar work in 4.0.1? I select it and it won't display!

I have re-loaded 4.0.1 to see if it just loaded incorrectly, but no. I select the Google Toolbar (from View/Toolbars) and it loads a blank gray bar to the page. But no info at all. I can choose and unchoose the toolbar repeatedly, same result. Plain gray bar.
If I can't add a search box to Firefox, I'll have to go back to IE. Help!

The Google Toolbar extension doesn't come with the official versions of Firefox that are downloaded from Mozilla download mirrors, maybe you installed a special "Google version" of Firefox 4.
{Ctrl + Shft + A} to open the Add-ons Manager tab, select Extensions, then locate the Google Toolbar extension, and hit the Uninstall button. Restart Firefox using the button in that extension dialog.
Install the latest version. https://www.google.com/intl/en/toolbar/ff/index.html

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.

I cannot find a Google Toolbar add-on that is compatible with Firefox 7.0.1. Is it true that there isn't one?

My Dell Inspiron 1464 laptop crashed recently and Dell replaced the hard drive and re-installed Win 7 Home Premium, 64 bit. I bought the laptop in 2009 and soon experienced a lot of compatibility problems between the computer and peripherals, like printers, and in some Web applications. I did some Web research and it seemed that the problems were related to the Win 7 64 bit OS. I talked to Dell and they acknowledged that my problems might be due to that 64 bit version. They sent me the 32 bit installation disc to replace the OEM 64 bit version and I downgraded the OS on my Dell. This seemed to solve my problems, so I have been using that until the computer crashed on 30 Sept. this year.
After it crashed, I contacted Dell and we walked through a number of diagnostic tests and, although we couldn't find anything obviously wrong with the HDD, it just wouldn't load Win 7 and wouldn't boot. Dell concluded that the HDD was well and truly buggered somehow.
They sent me a box and I sent the laptop to them for repair.
Dell replaced the HDD and re-installed the 64 bit Win version at my request, since I had been advised by my IT guys at work that more things were now compatible with the 64 bit version than when I bought it in 2009. In addition, I had purchased a newer printer and other external bits in the past year and expected that I wouldn't have the compatibility issues now. With the full original version, I would be able to use more of my computer's resources.
Before I sent the computer back to Dell for repair, I took it to Staples and had the Tech Support guys there transfer the data from the wonky hard drive to an external drive, which they did successfully. In fact, I did this on advice from one of the Dell tech support techs with whom I spoke.
I got the computer back from Dell this last week and re-downloaded Firefox, which is my preferred browser, but I can't seem to add the Google Toolbar to it, now. I have the Google toolbar on Internet Explorer and have used it in earlier versions of Firefox, especially the "translate" function, since I do considerable research in documents in many languages. When I tried to download the Google Toolbar and add it to my new Firefox installation, it says I can't. When I do an Internet search I find many posts saying that Google Toolbar does not work with any Firefox of versions 5 or higher. Is this true? If not, how can I add Google Toolbar to my Firefox 7.0.
Thank you.
Mark Fritzler

You can turn off compatibility checking, but more and more of the Google Toolbar will not work. Google is no longer supporting the Google Toolbar so you should use the alternatives.
Hi Mark,

If you have an aspect that is not covered, indicate what that is; otherwise, expect you to be fully functional within 1-2 weeks.

In Firefox Google Toolbar, when I click "Search" the webpage I'm on closes and I go to the new browser window . Can I keep the webpage I'm on and have the search page open to a new browser window?

When I click "Search" in the Firefox Google Toolbar it closes (it makes me leave) the web page I'm already on. I want to have the page I'm on and the new page available when I click "Search." Is this possible? Can I at least get a tab for the new page? thanks

Please see solution in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions
for "McAfee Site Advisor".
(Windows): For best results you should uninstall '''McAfee Site Advisor''' from Control Panel > add/change programs (Programs and Features). Reboot the system. Then Reinstall from http://www.siteadvisor.com/ and reboot the system. When installing refuse other suggested (crapware) applications.

How do I get the lattest FF with a Google Toolbar On XP & Vista in English

I am using FF 4 and want to update to the latest. My Desktop w/XP says Version 8 & Laptop w/Vista says Version 9. I am using Google toolbar with at least 6 or 7 items that I am using all the time and I want to keep it. I switched to Version 5 sometime ago and I no longer had a Google Toolbar so I switch back to Version 4.
I have read that if I go to "http://google-toolbar-firefox.on.softonic.com/download" it will work as long as I also go to Mozilla and install "add-on compatibility reporter". Would you please confirm that this will work for me.
Also wen I did switch to FF Version 5 and then back to Version 4, I lost the use of "Bookmarks" in my Google Toolbar. When I place my mouse on the word 'Bookmarks' it says "Sign in to access your Google bookmarks". There is nothing I can do to sign in as nothing I have used in the past with Google is accepted.
Would you please respond ASAP by email - [email protected] Thank you very much
Jim Nicholas

I wish to revert to previous version of Firefox. Version 5.0 is not compatible with Google Toolbar

I upgraded to Firefox 5.0 and now have no Google Toolbar. I'm not sure what else is disabled as incompatible, but I want to revert to my previous version. How can I do this without losing my settings and plugins? I could not find version 4.0.1 on Mozilla's website. Only version 5.0 appears to be available.

Firefox version 4 (4.0, 4.0.1) is no longer supported.
'''The Google Toolbar is no longer supported by Google in Firefox 5 and up''', you may be able to get what you want from it for a limited time, the directions to install the Google Toolbar were posted before Google actually announced dropping support.

Firefox 3.6.8 crashes when accessing Add-on Manager and Google Toolbar (v 7.1.20100723W) is enabled

Well, as I said, Firefox 3.6.8 crashes when accessing Add-on Manager and Google Toolbar (v 7.1.20100723W) is enabled. This is on a 2010 white unibody macbook. I have a google toolbar, and all of a sudden, it keeps saying that it can't communicate with the toolbar. Now, I can't even uninstall it because whenever I go to the add on manager, it says there's an 'unresponsive script'. Could anyone help me? Thanks.

I fixed it by running in Safe Mode, and uninstalling Personas. Thanks again!
