Google toolbar was working in Firefox 11 and then went away!!

Since the Google toolbar has continued to work on my wife's computer when she upgraded to Firefox 11, I decided to upgrade. It worked for a while and then disappeared. Could the difference be that she is using Windows 7 and I am using Windows XP? Thanks

Unfortunately since Google is not maintaining the extension anymore, it is likely they didn't have it set to be compatible with newer versions. Upon upgrading, the Google toolbar would be disabled. You can try installing this add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/checkcompatibility/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/checkcompatibility/], and see if it brings the toolbar back.
Keep in mind however, that continuing to use the Google Toolbar without support means you are open to both security holes and other bugs (ones that could potentially cause you to lose data) as Google won't fix bugs in the future.

  • How do I get the keyboard in the notes section of the ipad to pop up? It was working all day today and then stopped working.

    How do I get the keyboard in the notes section of the ipad to pop up? It was working all day today and then stopped. 

    I find it's touchy.  Tap anywhere on the note to bring up the keyboard. If you tap and hold, you won't bring up the keyboard. Just tap momentarily.
    If you can't get it to work, try restarting your iPad.  Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears, then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If it still doesn't work, try resetting your iPad.  Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • If firefox starts, the startingpage (whitch is google) shows up for a few seconds, and then go away, and i get a white background with nothing on

    Firefox is gisteren beginnen raar doen, je opent de browser, de startpagina komt er 2 seconden op, en dan verdwijnt die, ik krijg dan een wit scherm, en het is zo bij elke pagina die ik open, (facebook, youtube....) Wat kan dit probleem zijn?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Today all my Bookmarks disapeared from Safari, when i checked my iphone they were there and then went away the same happened on my ipad. Any ideas on how to restore?

    Today all my BookMarks disappeared in Safari, when I checked my iphone I watched them disappear from there and the same on my iPad. I then thought why not check my Parallels side and Windows Explorer. They were there for a few seconds and then also gone. Any ideas on how to restore and stop this from happening again? My iCloud setting are set for Safari sync.

    Then you have misunderstood what iCloud is.
    First. It is not a back-up service. It is a sync service.
    That distinction is very import. A back-up service would have backed-up your bookmarks but iCloud's function is to synchronize your data, in this case your bookmarks, to all your devices. A backup service, by it's very nature, would allow you to roll back to a previous version of your data or file. No such roll back function is present in iCloud's services.
    For example, if you add a bookmark to Safari on your Mac that same bookmark will be added to all your other devices that are connected to your iCloud account. Also, if you delete a bookmark it will be deleted from all those devices.
    iCloud does not make a distinction between deleting one or all of your bookmarks and it will do the same to all your devices. It does not know that was not your intention. That is why it is very important to have Backups and Apple makes it very easy using Time Machine and a simple hard drive connected to a computer.
    Let's see if your bookmarks have actually been deleted or if there is another problem.
    Your bookmarks are stored in a .plist file the following directory, ~/library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    To get to that directory go to the Finder, select the Go to Folder… menu item in the Go menu and enter ~/library/Safari/ in the field provided. There you will find the Bookmarks.plist file.
    Select it and hit the space bar on your keyboard to see a preview of the files content. Does it still contain references to your bookmarks? If it does still contain references to your bookmarks then something else is going on and we'll have to find a different solution.

  • Why does my google toolbar not work properly with the new updates. It was such a convenience to use the old toolbar to go to places I had visited before. Now I cannot get those old addresses with anything but Firefox 3.62 or whatever.

    Why does Google Toolbar not work with the newer versions of Firefox.

    Google have stopped supporting Google Toolbar on the latest versions of Firefox. Apparently one of the reasons for this decision is that modern browsers already tend to support many of the functions that google toolbar provides.
    Firefox does allow you to specifically bookmark sites you have chosen, and also automatically remembers many of the sites you visit.

  • Just updated to firefox 5.0 and my google toolbar has disappeared, went to reinstall it and error message says google toolbar is incompatable with firefox 5.0. Any solutions? Thanks

    Last night I opened firefox and it said there was an update (5.0) available, so I updated. When I opened the browser this morning the google toolbar was missing, so I went to the google site and tried to download the google toolbar for firefox. A message appeared in the next to a piece of green jigsaw saying the google toolbar is incompatable with firefox 5.0. Is there some way to make it compatable? Regards, Peter.

    You would need to install the Addon Compatibility Reporter, but you need to start working on those workarounds because ...
    '''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.

  • Eimails from hotmail origin are not delivered to me and Google Toolbar is incompatable with Firefox.

    Emails to me *****@prodigy.net originating from a hotmail e-mail account are not being delivered.
    Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 553 553 5.3.0 flpd121 DNSBL:ATTRBL 521< 74.125.83.196 >_is_blocked.__For_information_see_http://att.net/blocks (state 13).
    Also, Google toolbar is incompatible with Firefox.I lost all my bookmarks.

    Hi, you seem to have several (different) issues...
    * The e-mail issue is, as the e-mail states, of the sole responsibility of the other email provider (in this case, prodigy.net). Firefox has nothing to do with this, and I don't think I can help you with this particular issue. If you own this domain or have an IT team behind the prodigy.net domain, I suggest you contact them, because this domain seems to be blacklisted by ATT.
    * Regarding lost bookmarks, you can try the suggestions at our support article [[Lost Bookmarks]]
    * Regarding Google Toolbar, you can enable it by following the instructions in the section "Forcing addons to work by installing the Addon Compatibility Reporter" in the article [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox]] .
    I hope this helps :D

  • I need the Google toolbar so I reinstalled Firefox 4 but now it crashes all the time. When are you going to have a current version that's compatible with the toolbar?

    When I updated to Firefox 5, I got a message that the Google toolbar was disabled as it wasn't compatible. I assume the same is true for version 6. After trying to use the browser without the toolbar for a few days I gave up and reinstalled version 4. Now I'm constantly getting pop-ups asked me to upgrade and I can't even submit feedback because you won't accept it until I upgrade. And version 4, which I never had a problem with before, is now very unstable and I have to shut it down at regular intervals to unfreeze it.
    Do I need to switch to a different browser in order to use the Google toolbar?

  • Google is NOT WORKING with Firefox 3.6.8, you can type in & Search but clicking on next is a dead link; does nothing?

    Google is NOT working on Firefox 3.6.8, suddenly today. You can type in search and get results on initial page. Clicking on 'next' link or any number links is dead. Yahoo & Bing seem to work. I do not have a Google toolbar. Very frustrating. This suddenly happened today. Please check into it.

  • Is there a way to download Firefox 4 without going on a 3rd party site? Many of my addons do not work with Firefox 5 and 6.

    Quite a few of my addons don't work with firefox 6, and I would prefer to keep them, but my pc crashed and I had to reformat. I don't want to have to go on a 3rd party site, since they could easily put a virus on my pc. I couldn't find anywhere to download it on the site.
    Thanks

    Just keep in mind that Firefox 5.0 was a security release for 4.0.1.
