Help Developing Simple Chrome Extension

I have an idea for a Chrome Extension that Ithink is very simple and shouldn't take too much time to develop, but my programming skills are lacking. I fiddled around with Chrome's getting started guide a little and looked at some other tutorials, but I think it would take more time than I have to learn how to do everything.Is there anyone out there who has some experience with Chrome Extension development and might be interested helping me out a little?My idea basically involves a customized search box that uses some of Google's built in operators to always have a custom search. For example, I never want to see results from facebook.com, so it will always append -site:facebook.com to any search result, but I can turn this on/off with a checkbox.I can see this being hugely beneficial for finding exactly what I want in a lot less time.

If you have LabVIEW 7.1, easiest would be to use a radio button control containing a button for each possible direction (FF, FR, RF, FS, etc. (forward, reverse, stop, etc.). A case structure would provide the correct string for each possibility. Are both motors always running at the same speed or do you need separate speed control for each?
In this case, you could also make two vertical sliders, one for each motor (e.g. going from -9 to 9), then in the code you could synthesize the FF part depending on the signs of each control.
If you go with the buttons, add a knob. Use the output of the knob and convert it to the %d formatted string of desired length.
At the end you simply concatenate all the strings to form the proper command to be sent to the instr
ument.
To make a standalone executable you need either LabVIEW Professional or higher. If you only have base or full, you need to purchase the application builder sperately. Contact your NI sales rep for details.

How do I enable SimplePass now that Google has blocked Chrome Extensions

Recently, Chrome was updated to block all extensions that weren't purchased from their webstore. My PC (a Pavilion dv6) came with HP SimplePass installed. I use it for all my online password management, but now it is blocked by Chrome (my preferred browser).
There is, apparently, a SimplePass extension available on the Chrome WebStore site, but it says it will only work with SimplePass version 8. I have version6. The current owner of SimplePass -- Softexinc.com -- doesn't indicate anything about getting software updates.
The SimplePass/ingerprint reader combination was part of the reason I bought this particular PC in the first place. I'll be very disappointed if I can never use it again. Please help me to re-enable this feature.
Edited to add:
OK, it gets worse. I found a download for SimplePass version 8. But there is no upgrade path! The import/export features of the two different versions are incompatible, so there's no way to migrate all my login/password data from the old to the new version. Please, HP, address any of these problems:
- create a SimplePass upgrade to convert data from older formats
- develop a Chrome extension that works with SimplePass v6 AND meets Google's requirements to allow it to run
- enhance SimplePass 8 to be compatible with existing (older) versions of SimplePass
This question was solved.

Hello everyone,
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
I am going to address the Chrome and Fingerprint-reading extension issue. I have already solved the exact issue for one user using the steps in this thread: Chrome Policy - disabled Simplepass extension
Other suggestions include using SimplePass on Internet Explorer and FireFox. Although, if you want to try to get Chrome working again, you can try the steps I suggested.
Here are of the steps from the thread:
1. Uninstall your current version of HP SimplePass and install this one (even if it's the same) : HP SimplePass Identity Protection Software Version 6.0.100.276
2. If that doesn't help: (This one is more of a workaround than anything)
a) Go to Settings in Chrome. Look for the "Extensions" menu, and click on "Get more extensions".
b) In the Chrome Web Store, search for "SimplePass" and it should appear under Extensions. Click on "+ Free" to install it, then try using it.
3. You can try to reset Chrome to default settings: Reset browser settings
4. System Restore, just because time travel is sometimes useful: System Restore
5. Try the steps in an Incognito window (yes, I just suggested that). Incognito mode disables all extensions by default (at least it's supposed to). You can re-enable all extensions, including Website login ones.
6. Download and install an older version of Chrome, then try to get SimplePass and website login extensions working: Old Version of Google Chrome
If none of this helps, then I'm going to suggest some complex steps. This requires working in Developer Mode.
1. Go into Developer Mode through the Extensions menu.
2. Note the extension ID (For example, jilhkcaiaaepfiajaebpkmhonmfgabhf)
3. Go to C://Users/-name of user account-/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/User/Data/Default/Extensions/-extension ID-/1.8 (or another number is you have a different number)
4. Copy that file path.
5. Go back to the Extension Menu of Chrome, and click on "Load unpacked extension...". Paste or search the above file path and hit Enter.
6. The extension should now be re-created and enabled (or able to be enable). You may need to restart the computer.
These steps should be enough to resolve the issue, according to what experimentation I've done. For the sake of this issue, please let me know what happens after trying each step.
I will continue to monitor this thread, while playing around with Chrome and SimplePass to possibly discover more solutions. Please let me know your results. Thanks!

Hi,
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Hope this helps!

Convert PDF Chrome extension does not appear/install for Acrobat 10 Pro

I have Acrobat 10 Pro and the Chrome extension to convert web pages to PDF does not appear in Chrome. I tried repair installation from the Help menu in Acrobat and it still did not resolve this problem. The extension also does not appear on the extension list, in case you're wondering if it's deactivated. I am using Chrome Version 36.0.1985.143 m.
I would appreciate the links and steps I need to take in order to get the Adobe Convert to Webpage Chrome extension to be visible and functional on my Chrome toolbar and in my extensions list. The PDFMaker shows up in Internet Explorer. I do not use Firefox.
I have already tried disabling all of my other Chrome extensions and run a repair of Acrobat via Actions.
I tried uninstalling Google Chrome, restarted my computer, downloaded the latest Chrome installer, installed Chrome, and launched Acrobat and repair Acrobat.
I'm totally at a loss at this point.
Can you please help?
Thank you for your kind assistance!

Hi angelczech,
The convert pdf extension will not appear in Chrome with Acrobat 10.
It will with Acrobat 11.

Convert PDF Chrome extension does not appear/install (Acrobat XI)

When I installed Acrobat XI, the Chrome extension to convert webpages to PDF does not install or appear in Chrome. I tried repair installation from Help menu of Acrobat, it still did not resolve the question. The extension also does not appear on the extension list, in case you're wondering its deactivated.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

I think there might be some confusion about what you are asking since I think that the Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension is only available for Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11) and I don't think that you will find it in the version 10 directory (although I could be mistaken since I do not have version 10). One you update to the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11), and also apply the latest updates to Google Chrome, then the extension should be enabled. I am running Google Chrome version 33 and have Adobe Acrobat Pro version 11.0.6.70 and the extension works alright for converting basic webpages. The Adobe installation directory that contains a copy of the extension depends on your operating system and installation and whether or not you have a 64-bit machine. For example I am running Windows 7 64-bit and I was able to find a copy of the "WCChromeExtn.crx" extension file in the directory: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Browser\WCChromeExtn"
On the other hand if you are asking how to install the "WCChromeExtn.crx" Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension without updating Adobe Acrobat Pro, that is a much more advanced procedure. If you have Windows 7 typically certain file types and locations that will not be indexed so you may not find what you are looking for with Windows search. That is why someone suggested using a third party search indexer to find the extension file. Another person suggested extracting the file from the Adobe update, and I also think that is the way to go. However the method that was described previously is very complicated and uses a lot of unnecessary scripting for what you really need. I propose that you download the latest update directly from Adobe and then extract the extension from the update file. Here's how to do that in Windows:
1. Download the latest update file from Adobe (e.g. "AcrobatUpd11006.msp")
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
2. If you are interested in some background on Windows Installer files, check out these links and read about MSP files and extracting resources, otherwise go to the next step:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/basics.html#installer-file-ty pes
http://www.jsware.net/jsware/msicode.php5
3. Rename the incremental update MSP file extension to CAB (e.g. from "AcrobatUpd11006.msp" to "AcrobatUpd11006.cab")
4. Use an archive utility such as WinRAR, WinZip, or 7-Zip to open the CAB file and extract the "WCChromeExtn.crx" CRX extension file
5. Drag and drop the extension CRX file onto open Google Chrome window extension page to install and configure (chrome://extensions/)
There are some other forum topics and a blog post that deals with some installation issues with the Google Chrome extension:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1332770
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1165998
http://blogs.adobe.com/acrobat/tip-google-chrome-the-adobe-acrobat-create-pdf-extension/
http://blogs.adobe.com/acrobat/tag/chrome/
I hope that this might help you with getting the extension installed.
I currently am having some issues with the Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension for Google Chrome when I try to convert secure https webpages, the output of the PDF converter does not retain my logon information, and does not convert the secure webpage. The resulting output of the converted https webpage is either a logon screen or a blank pdf with only the URL listed at the bottom. I hope that this might get fixed with an update or if anyone else might know of a workaround or solution. Thanks.

Create pdf chrome extension problems

My os is Win 8.1
My product is Acrobat XI with all current updates as of 11-25-2013
I use the lastest version of Chrome browser
I have used the pdf extension on the browser at least 7 times.
1st time nothing happened
2nd time it worked perfectly
3rd through 6th time it did nothing what soever.
I went into Chrome and looked at the settings. It was enabled.
I rebooted my computer and tried a 7th time which resulted in nothing happening.
I openned Chrome and deleted this extension thinking I would browse Chrome extensions and re install.
I was not able to find this extension and started reading in the Acrobat forums.
I did as suggested and closed Chrome and open Acrobat and click repair.
This resulted in no change what so ever. I have also noticed that the disscussions I read the folks with
this same issue have not been able to resolve the problem.
I believe in Acrobat and enjoy the use of it. This chrome browser extension function was great the one time it worked for me.
I am open for help....now that I can't even make the extension show up on my brower again.
Thanks,
Jerry

Chrome Extension Converted & Installed Successful - but will not open.

Used the following service:
http://gallery.extensionfactory.com/labs/conversion/
I have tried both installation methods for the smart waiver extensions.
1. Using the smart waiver extension code as listed in the Chrome store
nkbhdpobafkjcgbnfoglpgemhhlbaleg
2. Downloading and converting the CRX extension file
In both instances, I was able to convert to Firefox compatibility, and it even installed in the add ons extensions area for Firefox. However, the icon to open the extension does not show.
I've already tried the following:
1. making sure the add-on tool bar was checked
2. Customizing the toolbar, but the icon didn't show
3. Restoring defaults int he customizing toolbar, icon still did not show
4. Restore firefox to defaults
5. Checked that I wasn't in a security or privacy setting that would disallow the task
So I'm at a loss - I've tried other Chrome extensions to test. I've converted them successfully, and got them into the same add-on extension screen installed in firefox. But no way to open the extension, and the icons are never recognized.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can help, as this is important for my business.
Kind regards,
Roger

Using Muse to create a Chrome extension/app

Hello,
We're creating a touchscreen for a tradeshow using Muse. Using Chrome in "Presentation Mode" the site looks good, functions correctly, and fills the monitor. The problem is that when dragging a finger across the touchscreen it starts highlighting the images. As a workaround I've been trying to create a Chrome extension/app with the Muse generated files, however for some reason the buttons aren't working.
- Does anyone have any ideas about why the buttons aren't working within the context of a Chrome extension/app?
- Are there other alternatives for running an HTML 5 site fullscreen in a kiosk type mode so that it functions like an application as opposed to a website?
I'd appreciate any assistance you can provide.
Andrew

Cheers - it's really an initial looksee. I've done a bit of
website design up to database stuff using mySQL / PHP, and some
basic flash stuff, so I get collared with any web related stuff -
but I enjoy it (do a bit of freelance stuff in my own time) so am
keen to develop those skills as much as i can. So my checking it
out on here is really to try to keep me a step or two ahead of
anything we might look to do.
So I'm really coming to it knowing that Flash can do it, but
not sure where to start with - on the one hand it's reinventing the
wheel of something like the non Flash Multimap, but on the other we
need to start somewhere, and we came across an interesting article
in a cartographic journal about the site above that did it in
house, on the cheap, and with a good user experience (ie smooth
zooming, rather than redrawing) just using Flash.
I don't really know much about action script - so if you know
of any good tutorial type things kicking around the net anywhere
that might achieve in the first instance that exercise of having a
big map image load in the background with a limited area that could
be navigated around, that would be a great start.

Constant Guard Protection Suite Chrome extension

I just noted a new open tab on my browser, URL http://services.whiteskyservices.com/addons/chrome/install.aspx?id=eeihfhnbnfemlajfadhbpdfiipncebld, with "Your Constant Guard Protection Suite Chrome extension is out of date, upgrade now" in white print on a red banner at the top of the screen and, centered on the page, a small blue banner inside a white banner (ona gray field) with the download icon and "INSTALL NEW EXTENSION." Is this genuine?
The main whiteskyservices.com page has a logo banner for "Connect" and then Connect(TM) Support, with four tabs for Support Alerts, Online Account Protection, General and Installation, and a link to the right saying, "To View the Connect user guide Click Here," with a hyperlink to http://whiteskyservices.com/userguide/.
My OS is Windows 8.1 and I use Chrome as my default browser. Thanks!

The link and instructions are not spurious, and you don't need to click on the link to enable the browser helper object. Here are the directions to manually enable the BHO - for the 3 supported browsers. You will also find this information at the Fast Connect Support Page. You can click the ? of the Fast Connect dashboard, and click on "Support," or use this link - http://ringo.idvaultservices.com/support-fcps/ to see the FCPS support page. If you don't trust the link, then you can use the following instructions to manually enable the BHO. Once you have enabled the browser helper object, you will no longer be prompted. These add ons will be automatically installed by your browser, usually within 12 hours after they are released. If the browser add on is present, then these instructions will work to enable it for the application -
For an “Other” account, such as a shopping account, the FastConnectTM add-on, plug-in, or extension for your web browser needs to be active.
                For Internet Explorer –
Click on the Tools icon;
Click on Manage Add Ons;
Find the FastConnectTM add on in the list of applications;
If it is not enabled, click to “enable” the add on;
Close all browser windows to save the change.
                For Firefox –
Click on the Firefox Controls icon (looks like 3 horizontal lines in the upper right-hand corner);
Click on “Add-ons;”
Make sure the FastConnectTM add on is present and is enabled.
Close all browser windows to save the change.
                For Chrome –
Click on the Chrome Controls icon (looks like 3 horizontal lines in the upper right-hand corner);
Click on “Settings;”
Click on “Extensions;”
Make sure the FastConnectTM extension is present and is enabled.
Close all browser windows to save the change.

Chrome extension claims does not have latest ver of Acrobat despite CC

Trying to use the Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF Chrome extension on up-to-date Yosemite with CreativeCloud - extension gives "Unknown Error" and claims computer doesn't have the 'right' version of Acrobat: "A supported version of Acrobat could not be found. Please install or update to Acrobat 11.0.09 or higher to use the Create PDF extension." even though I have CC installed and up-to-date so I do have the "highest" version. First time trying to use extension.

Is there a Chrome extension that will automatically open a matching URL in Firefox?

I'm on OSX. I use Chrome as my default browser (personal choice). However, an internal site that I use regularly is a boxed product that works only in Firefox.
Is there a Chrome extension that I can list URLs that Chrome should automatically open in Firefox instead? I want Chrome to remain my default browser, but when I click on a URL for that site in my email, Chrome opens the site in a tab, then opens Firefox with that URL, then closes the tab it opened.

There might be some vise versa however.
