How do you make what Firefox lists as "unknown plugins" known?

When I go to the Plugin Check page to check for updates, there is a list of the Plugins that I'm using... about half are "known" which enables me to update but the other half is listed as "Unknown plugin" which makes it so that I can't update them... how do I make those "known"?

Hi, i also have the same problem, and i try to keep my plugins all up to date, but the fact is that half of them continually says that are unknown!I did the research and try to download some of them - because the others can´t find the download buttons on the researched pages-, to download the newer version and still keep having the same message.For ex. i did the research for picnic and did the download of the newer version, although i thought i had already the newer version, and after doing that i closed firefox and open it again and clicked on check for updates and still gives me the same message saying that the plugin is unknown???'I just don´t understand!!The same thing for google talk plugin and for google earth, i downloaded the newer version and still keeps giving me the same message.I send here a screenshot of some of the plugins that have that message. I also realised that the big majority of them are from google, like google update, for ex.I just would like to say that i have the firefox updated too, i checked that.
Thanks.

  • How do you make a patch list display the actual patches?

    The Large Patch Display and the Selector controls show the current patch and a list of available patches respectively.
    However, if I drop a "Compact Patch List" or a "Full Height Patch List" on the screen, it only displays "Set Name" and "Patch Name" values. How do you make it show the available patches?

    Is it that you want to only see patches without sets, or that you more patches than are displaying in the list?
    Either way, you can change both of these things in Layout. Select the patch selector object then in the Inspector on the left you have some display options.
    Hope that helps!

  • How do you make the product list in the module_productfeaturelist inline?

    hi just added a module_productfeaturelist to my shipping cart at the bottom of the page to try and tempt people with extras they might need.
    Ive added the module_productfeaturelist but all the products display below eachother instead of side by side. im guessing at trying to fix the problem and thought you guys would be quicker than me at telling me what tables of dvs need to be modified.
    ps I know the images are set to 100% width when ive change it to an appropriate size within firebug its still a list below eachother
    cheers
    Dave

    just noticed that the add to cart button doesnt work when the product featured list is inside the shopping cart.
    Is there an easy fix or is it not possible ?
    is just easier to get rid of the add to cart button and have it just as a link to the large product view?
    If i did delete the add to cart button can I do it just for the module_productfeaturelist as its based of the small product layout, would like the catologe view to still have this function
    cheers

    Hello.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].

  • Simple question - How do you make an onchange event occur in a select list

    Simple question - How do you make an onchange event occur in a select list to fire a process?
    Thanks

    1) Using ApEx Selec list on Submit Item.
    You will create a PL/SQL Process after Submit. -> Conditional Type Request = Expression1. -> Expression1 is the name of your Select List. Process Source - > Procedure you like. For example depending of your select List value you will add rows in different tables.
    2) Javascript This example will change a System parameter value when changed
    <select id="P3_SUBSYSTEM" onchange="location.href='f?p=101:3:2164422329953284::NO::P3_SUBSYSTEM:'+this.options[selectedIndex].value;" size="1" name="p_t21">

  • How do you make Mozilla listen to users and stop FFFFirefox Auto Updating despite being set to NOT auto update?

    I am spitting nails
    After all the STUPID problems outlined here
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/999831?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s
    I set Firefox to stop auto updating,
    Then the other day I installed a new user on my laptop, when they loaded Firefox it auto updated MY version of Firefox.
    Has NOTHING been learnt?
    STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID
    So I have 2 questions
    How do you make Mozilla listen to users?
    and how do prevent what happened to me happening again?

    SuperSluether
    Not a millionth, you have only provided 150 answers and I doubt they were all this issue.
    If you don't like it, don't use it.
    If a business took this attitude they would soon be out of business
    Updates help KEEP YOU SAFE
    Sometimes, but in my experience FFirefox updates can really screw up your system, lose you data, mess up your user interface. I have run IT for one of the biggest intranets on the planet and we never allowed even Mictosoft updates until we did User Acceptance Testing and understood the impact of the upgrade. I am a grown up not a child, I have system where I test updates for performance, security and impact, I WILL DECIDE when I want to install it. If Mozilla wants to provide real security updates I would take them but if you look at the link in my OP you will see it said an update was security and it completely messed up.
    Updates add tons of great new features
    Actually with FFirefox in my experience they take more away than they add, things I did not ask them to take, they do not look at my config and leave my settings as they were and then tell me about new options, no they completely screw my productivity as it takes days to figure out how to undo the kwap they have added. Copying the AWFUL Chrome interface is not an improvement, Google has one of the worst UI's on the planet accross all their products.
    Firefox is designed to be customized PER USER, NOT CROSS-SYSTEM
    There are some things that benefit from being per user and some that are per machine, windows has group policies per machine and per user. My OP is telling Mozilla that this is another area where they have "designed" badly, I tell them this so that they improve it and in the vain hope that there is some config setting that will stop this nonsense.
    So SuperSluether you have not really helped, all you seem to say is FO if you do not like it. Good job you do not run a business. With that attitude probably best you do not contribute.

  • How do you make an application open on a specific monitor?

    How do you make an application open on a specific monitor? I have two monitors, and I was able to get Firefox to open on the secondary display always by resizing it with the option or command key [I forget which one] and then quitting it. Now everytime I start it, it opens on the second monitor.
    However, when I try to do the same with QuickTime [when playing videos], it always opens on the primary display no matter what I do with it. How do I make it always open on the secondary display?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Thanks for the suggestion, but no, Spaces is not what I want. I have two physical monitors, and simply want an application to always open on one monitor, not be able to switch back and forth between different desktops.

  • HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did the "see Advanced - General - Accessiblity. and still having problems

    HOW DO YOU TURN OFF "FIREFOX PREVENTED THIS PAGE FROM AUTOMATICALLY RELOADING". I did perform the "see Advanced - General - Accessibility. It worked for me and my "user" site (don't know how to say my site) and still having problems with my wife's. I have gone to OPTIONS → GONE TO → ADVANCE and CLICKED THE LINE → ""Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page…""
    This did not rememdy the problem. I did try to get on the other site suggested
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.blockautorefresh
    but got a 404 error...
    I have googled the "ff prevented...." and after a number of hours searching I still have not found a fix...
    REALLY HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME....
    JM

    You should still disable this setting:
    *Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
    What is the value of the <b>accessibility.blockautorefresh</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page?
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.blockautorefresh
    If you have problems with preferences, see:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • How can you make one button preform different actions in Xcode?

    How can you make one button "preform a click" and "orderfront"? Is that possible? Because what I am doing is making a welcome window to my application for Mac OS X 10.6, and I have two buttons in that window, one says "Connect" which connects a a WebView to a url and the other button opens up the main window. So how can I a make a button do multiple things at once??

    Ah - If you are just using bindings between various objects from Interface Builder, you can reduce your application code a bit (sometimes quite a bit), but there is only so far you can go. Typically variables and routines are defined in your application that Interface Builder hooks into, so that your application code (usually Objective-C, but can be others) can use these variables and routines to determine what is happening in the user interface.
    I'm not sure how up-to-date the project code is (or what programming code you are familiar with), but you can take a look at Apple's Cocoa Application Tutorial to see what is (usually) involved in creating an application.

    I have multiple devices used by family members, how do you make sure the kids don't see Moms messages from Dad and visa versa?

    Hi Roger:
    Thanks for the reply.  I think I figured out the problem.  Apple has confused (at least in my mind) the different IDs that people can have.  In the iCloud settings, they use the term Apple ID and not iCloud ID.  I guess there really is no such thing as an iCloud ID.  There are Apple IDs with various attributes.  This is not clearly explained or easy to see (how could I look up to see if my Apple ID is associated with iTunes for example?).
    I created, what I thought were iCloud IDs for each family member, but we all use my Apple ID for iTunes.
    One other question - why does the syncing of Notes using iCloud require an @me.com email account.  That makes no sense to me.
    Thanks for your help!
