How do i access my add-on from a browser or URL vs having to click the icon?

greetings gents, we have built a firefox add-on to do cool things from from the browser. we do the same in our apps and ONLY mozilla supports our growing corporate customer base (apps do not). the product is ready but we face one final challenge: a reasonably easy way to have the users access the our product. to do that, they need to first install the plug-in. we would like to be able to run/execute/access the plugin from a web page ie a URL. i can send more specific needs and requirements but i wanted to open a conversation with you. thank you very much.

hello, i don't exactly understand what you're trying to achieve - however since we are a support forum for users and cannot really give development-oriented advice, your question might be better suited in the addons forum at https://forums.mozilla.org/index.php or a site like stackoverflow.com anyway! thank you for your understanding...

  • How can I move my media files from USB-HD to NAS without having to copy the media files to iTunes Media folder?

    I have iTunes on a Mac with the iTunes Media folder stored locally and the music on an external USB-HD. The music files are Not copied to iTunes Media folder when added to the library.
    Now I want to move my files from USB-HD to a NAS without losing any information or settings. I want to do the similar to my iPhoto library. I do not want to consolidate my files to iTunes Media folder. The articles I’ve read only discuss how to do if the files are copied to iTunes Media folder when added to the library. Any tips or trix?

    I have iTunes on a Mac with the iTunes Media folder stored locally and the music on an external USB-HD. The music files are Not copied to iTunes Media folder when added to the library.
    How are you achieving the above? What are your copy setting in preferences? If you are manually overriding the copy-to by holding down the option key while adding media then that won't apply when you import a playlist (as in importing the .xml).  When you import a playlist like that you are essentially adding the files to the library again and it will obey the  preferences setting since you can't option add them that way.
    Correct on the .itl.  Only iTunes itself can edit that file.
    I think you need to review your basic wants/needs in doing all this.  If your reason for not wanting to use the Media Folder settiing is because you do not want it to go on the internal drive, but you don't actually mind if it organizes it as long as it is on the NAS, change the Media Folder preferences setting to the NAS and let it consolidate to there.  If you want to move the stuff but keep it organized in your own folder structure you may need to do it as I suggested initially.  Once it is on the NAS and iTunes recognize the file locations you can do what you can only do if you manually manage music which is move it around in Finder afterward once it is on the drive and recognized to tweak location to your final wishes.

  • How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed and you don't know what it is now?

    How do you access updates to apps from the App store after changing to a new ID because the password on the old ID was changed by the former husband and you don't know what it is now?  And you set up your own new ID and account but can NOT access the updates, from the App store for the many apps that you already have, because they require that you sign in with that former now inaccessible ID and account and password?  Call it a problem of modern times and changing relationships, if you want to be charitable.

    So I guess it will only be new apps that I download that are allowed to give me their updates while 13 updates wait for me on an ID I can no longer access.
    Yes...  sorry.

  • How can I access a calendar backup from my old iPhone?

    How can I access a calendar backup from my old iPhone?
    I recently had to get a replacement iPhone 4. The tech at the Apple Store thought that I might have had a software problem and recommended that I not "restore from backup," but start this phone as a new device and just sync the apps and what-not. My calendar on my computer was different than the one on my old phone, though, and now I need the data from my old iPhone calendar. I did back up my old phone just prior to taking it to the Apple Store.
    HELP!

    Well what you can do is update to ios5 then use icloud to sync your calandar up to your phone then restore your phone as new and when prompted in the new phone setup put in your icloud username and password and you will have your calandar events back.

    Why don't you talk to apple and find out if backup exists? That conversation with apple will stop your guessing.

  • RE: How do I access deployed TOOL libraries from mycode?

    Hi Martin,
    sorry for the late answer but I hope it is still helpful.
    First: In the workspace you make your distribution from, check whether
    you really have library icons.
    Second: Make the distribution and run it from the partition workshop.
    Startup should fail when you do not have the libraries installed. If you
    install them later and you can run that distribution then, you can be
    sure that you use your library.
    Third: Sometimes it is difficult to import the library pex-file into
    your workspace when there are already plans with that name. To overwrite
    them you can use a traceflag (cfg:c4:14:14:1). But take care! this will
    overwrite!!! Do not overwrite them before you put your libraries sources
    into another repos. If you did it by accident, at least do not integrate
    until you saved the original code.
    Hope this helps. If you have more question please feel free to contact
    me.

    Martin,
    Here is how it works:
    When you create a library distribution, part of the result is a
    'Library
    Definition' pex file (located under the 'appdist') like this:
    C:\forte\appdist\EnvName\LibName\cl0\generic\LibName\LibName.pex
    You would import this pex file into a workspace, after which it
    would
    appear
    as any other Forte library.
    Once integrated, the library can used by other plans as a supplier
    (remember
    to 'install' the library from E-Console).
    Hope this helps,
