I have tried it, I hate it, bring back the Status bar. This is a UI nightmare.
I have given the new FF4 betas a shot but I really hate the lack of a status bar. I would think that the fact over 32,000+ people using a BETA have downloaded an extension that emulates the old Status Bar is a pretty clear indicator that this was a UI mistake. Leave it off be default, fine. Bury the option in About:Config... fine. But don't remove the option entirely, this has completely messed up the UI experience for me.
I don't like the Chrome UI and I LIKED that Firefox felt different... why are we making it a clone? If you remove my options then I may as well just use Chrome then since it'll feel the same. FF has always been about choice, and it seems that has been forgotten in FF4. I for one am highly disappointed.
I have used Firefox since it first came out, and always loved it. Firefox 4.0.1 is a different story. This must be one of the worst software upgrades across the board, of any software package I have ever used. I have stuck with it for a few weeks, and I have now finally given up.
Constant crashes, constant freezes, many plugins no longer work, my favorite among them, i.e PDF plugin to see PDF files inside the browser. AppTabs disappear over and over.
I have downgraded back to 3.6.17 and hope things will be better again.

Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar?
Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar, because all updates past FF28 don't have the Status Bar which is where most of my favorite Addons are located (such as eQuake Alert and ForecastFox. This is really annoying. I've had to turn off auto update because of this and stay with FF28. I'm sure one day FF28 will become obsolete and then I won't be able to use my Addons.
'''''"Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar?"'''''
Little to no chance of that happening. As you are well aware, there is one or more extensions that restore the Add-on Bar to Firefox 29 + versions. -
Does anybody know how to bring back the status bar in Firefox 4 without having to install any addons? The reason why I ask is that for some reason, when Firefox 4 was made available to the general public to download, Firefox 4 was missing the status bar and also the save and quit message was turned off by default. I got the save and quit message turned back on but I just don't know if it's possible to bring back the status bar without any addons.

During the day yesterday, the bookmarks I had in Safari disappeared, as well as the bookmark bar. In preferences I still have the "show bookmark bar always" option marked. When I hit the bookmark symbol, to create the bookmarks the display has changed and it looks like it is creating a new bookmark, but when I go into bookmarks it is no longer there.
Tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Safari off then back on.
Give iCloud a minute or two to sync your bookmarks. -
Firefox doesn't bring back the menu bar when toggling back from full screen view(F11)
I have recently been using the full screen view (pressing F11). This works fine until I press F11 again to resume normal view when the menu bar does not appear. This means I cannot see the minimize / maximize / X buttons on the top right. Also, if there is another window open i.e. Word sometimes parts of this show through on the Firefox window. I try to use the latest version and so am currently using version 3.6.8
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Not sure - maybe after the latest update?No, dont return it, its a glitch in Safari, and VERY annoying. I first would have to Force Quit Safari, but later learned to keep hovering the mouse in the upper right corner, even tho nothing, yeah nothing,,,,is visible.
Keep the mouse there, and after a bit, you will see the little arrows pointing in, hit them.
But to keep this from happening again, Im not sure.
So anybody with further info, please post it here. -
Does this 'grayed-out area' have anything to do with- 'all of the add-ons that you installed before you loaded the Theme Font & Size Changer' ?
Not all buttons that are added by extensions can be moved to another toolbar.<br />
So it is possible that those buttons are added by an extension that only supports the Add-on bar for their buttons.

At some point, I'll see 'bookmark syncing failed', and the browser then acts normally, BUT the behavior is cyclic. I uninstalled 7.0.1 and installed 3.6.20 and the behavior continued. I disabled sync in both installs and the behavior continued. I even deleted the sync server URL in about:config and the behavior *continued*. Oddly, the logs don't show any failures, and report success every time.
BTW, the bug-reporting procedure needs serious clean-up. It is very difficult to navigate the maze. And the help files are atrocious.That maybe fixes some issues, but not this one. This one has to do with Sync and is getting seriously annoying.

Feature Request - Bring back the show progress bar
Just in case Verizon is looking for suggestions here, can you please bring back the progress bar that was behind the start/end times in the guide? In the current guide, there is no quick graphical cue to represent how much time has progressed in the selected show. Yes, you can look at the start, end, and current times, but when browsing through shows that start/end at different times, it really slows browsing down.
I've uploaded two images to illustrate the issue.
The first image below is a screenshot of the v1.9 guide. The second image is a mock-up that shows the feature that I am talking about. Note the progress bar for the currently selected show in the guide that appears behind the start and end times ("7:35 AM - 9:30 AM" on the right side of the screen, in the middle).
This was available in the previous guide, but was omitted in 1.9. It is a very useful feature. Please bring it back.
(NOTE: The white progress bar at the top of the screen does NOT represent the progress through the show selected in the guide. It just shows the current time.)shadow715 wrote:

I'm sorry, but I just do not see the benefit of the elapsed time thing you propose. What difference does it make to see some kind of indicator how far into the program you are? You can't change where you are, you are there, period.
But if you really, really want to know:
1) Just look at the start time and end time shown in the current program in the middle, and look at the TOD shown at the top, and estimate where you are.
- or -
2) Hit the Info button once and see a bar that definitively shows how far in you are.
Could you please explain why you think having that feature is so useful? I just don't see it.
Thanks.

I am trying to update Adobe Bridge and Photoshop CS6, because it is not opening my CR2 files taken by my Canon 6D. I have tried to go to help > updates, and the software says that it is "Up to Date".

I have been trying to burn newly purchased (as well as last year purchases) ITunes to a disc. I had burned some of these songs to a disc last year and all went well. Now I have been getting this popup telling me that the AppleSync Notifier has stoped working & the corefoundation.dll needs to be re-installed. Also that Windows will try to fix the problem. Every time I try to burn the disc, the computer sends the disc back out and the screen tells me to put in a blank recordable disc. I have tried 4 different new discs now and the same thing happens.
I am running Windows Vista.
Have been to the Roxio web site for help as well as Apple.
Have tried many "fixes" such as: updating latest version of Direct X from the Microsoft website; Disabling startup items; going to local disc C and into the Apple/Apple Appplication support and right-clicking on the SQLite3.dll and moving it tomobile support device window. Nothing has worked. What can I do to get some music recorder? Should I buy a new cassette deck and record onto tape like I did 20 years ago? This is a very important disc I am making as a gift & I need to get it done by this weekend. Is there anyone that can offer good advice?love paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work right, thanks apple

I want to share Microsoft word from my desktop mac to my laptop but every timeIi try and do it, it says that it can't open because it is not supported by the software. I have tried several times and updated it on the mac but its still not working. Any ideas?
You need to install Office on the computer from the installer DVD or disc image you purchased.

My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?
The port can fail. Internal boards can fail. Batteries can fail. All with the result that no charging occurs.
You can try Resetting the System Management Controller and you can try Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters.
But usually you will have to take the mac in to a service place for testing. It can get expensive, although occasionally it is not.
