I installed firfox 4.0 w/ yahoo toolbar, but didn't like & now my toolbar looks funny

I reverted to the previous version, & now the yahoo toolbar looks funny. The part that looks weird is boxed in pink. [http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o250/uptowngirl48/Untitled.png photo of problem]

have you restarted your OS? and do you have more than one firefox in your system?
looks like you got a little bit messed up. my suggestion is remove all the firefox programs, including addons, and do a restart of your windows, and then download a new firefox 3.6.16/3.6.15 from mozilla official, do the install, then install the addons.

I have installed the safari extention cleaner youtube. I didn't like it and now I a not able to uninstall it. I search in safari>preferences> extentions and it not appear there. My safari is the 5.1.10. Can anyone help me?

If you got it from http://clea.nr/install/ then if it's not shown in Safari - Preferences - Extensions, it isn't installed.
If you obtained it elsewhere, please link to it, or add a screenshot/description showing how it affects Safari.

No longer able to add bookmarks on Yahoo Toolbar, Error message: "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function" started when I updated to Firefox 6.0

Since updating to Firefox 6.0 I am no longer able to add bookmarks on Yahoo Toolbarl. I receive the following Java Error message: "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function." When I hit the OK button in the error message it opens up "Add a Bookmark" and when I attempt to add the bookmark there I get this error message: "A problem occured while trying to save the bookmark. Please try again later."
Is this a comparability issue that you are not aware of? Below are the versions of Firefox and Yahoo Toolbar that I currently have installed:
Firefox: 6.0.02
Yahoo Toolbar: 2.4.0.20110815110908
Windows XP, Service Pack 3
I am having this issue on my laptop and desktop. Since I use both computers the Yahoo toolbar has been great for having my bookmarks available on both computers at the same time but no I don't have that feature. I'm told that Google's toolbar also doesn't work either.
Do you guys do any testing or Quality Assurance testing before releasing these versions?

Add-ons are the responsibility of their authors. McAfee does not even put their extension on http://addons.mozilla.org you had to install it from their site.
Disable "McAfee Site Advisor" extension which was just updated to 3.4.0, which probably took it out of the addons block list.
* "Ctrl+Shift+A" > find McAfee Site Advisor and use "Disable", and then restart Firefox.
* Do a Google Search no problem
* It seems that if you re-enable Site Advisor again, and restart Firefox you are okay. At least you know where to look if you get the error again or Google searches slow down.

Why can I not install yahoo toolbar on lastest Firefox 4.0.1???

Thank you so much!! This is exactly what I needed and is working.
Appreciate you taking the time to respond. :o)

How do I bring my already installed Yahoo Toolbar from my IE Browser to my current FireFox browser?

Prior to my Firefox browser, I was using IE8 for quite some time. I have a toolbar, for Yahoo, installed into my system already from my initial homepage setup in IE. I now use Yahoo as one of my homepages in Firefox and would like to have the Yahoo toolbar available when I log in to my browser. I know how to import my bookmarks/favorites from other browsers, I did this already. Can I move the Yahoo toolbar that's been customized my way, from my old IE8 browser to my new FF browser? I don't want to re-install it, again, if I don't have to. All of my preferred links/buttons are set up in it; CNN News, You Tube, etc.

You can't move the Yahoo Toolbar from IE to Firefox, they are totally different "behind the scenes". However you can install it, [http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/ http://us.toolbar.yahoo.com/] and I believe if you log in with your Yahoo account it will sync your data.

My customized Yahoo Toolbar (v. 2.3.5.20110120033202) would not load properly after I installed the new Firefox 5.0, even though when it checked for incompatibilities while installing it made no mention of the Yahoo toolbar, only the Google toolbar

My elongated (statement) question fully explains the problem I am inquiring about. Only some rudimentary features of my existing Yahoo toolbar were displayed and it was missing all of my previously selected icons which are on file with Yahoo, not my computer. You also could not right or left click for a menu on the options icon (gear icon) to the right of the search window.
It would seem that there are incompatibility issues between the new 5.0 Firefox and the existing most current version of the Yahoo Toolbar add-on. I don't know know why this wasn't detected in the installation scan for compatibility of installed add-ons.
I have re-installed the 4.0 Firefox for the time being in order to regain the use of the Yahoo toolbar and all it's features which I use regularly.
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what the problem may be?

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

I cannot download Google or Yahoo toolbars. It says Firefox could not install file there is an error 203, what does this mean and what can I do to fix it?

I have Firefox 3.6.16, I upgraded to Firefox 4 but there were many conflicts with Kaspersky so went back to 3.6.16 which is fine but I cannot get Google nor Yahoo toolbars to load. I have tried several times and the same thing happens. I have another computer that I did the same thing with but both toolbars loaded on it.

My yahoo toolbar add in disappears each time I open firefox, requiring me to install the tool bar with each session. Would you know what might be causing this?

I have always used the yahoo toolbar to store my bookmarks. I recently had my computer serviced for an network problem I was experiencing, and since its return to to I have found that I must install the yahoo toolbar each time I open firefox. The toolbar does not stay for subsequent sessions like it had in the past. Is there a setting or problem that may be causing this?

You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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

Yahoo toolbar will not install - what's up??

I HAVE INSTALLED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST 3 DAYS, SINCE YAHOO UPDATED. IT WILL WORK WITH IE, BUT NOT FIREFOX.
I PREFER FIREFOX.
I HAVE DELETED, UNINSTALLED, RE-INSTALLED - NO SUCCESS.
HELP!

Hi falang50,
I understand that Yahoo Toolbar preferences are not working properly. Unfortunately there is not much that Mozilla can do here. Please also contact the Yahoo developers to further investigate an ETA for any changes.
In the meantime, I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Yahoo installed toolbar without my permission. How do I remove Yahoo toolbar?

I downloaded Yahoo Messenger. The install menu asked if I wanted Yahoo Toolbar, Yahoo default browser, etc. I checked, "No" on all and then clicked on "Install".
Now I have Yahoo toolbar which I declined and want to remove it. What is procedure?

You are being paranoid because of your laptop.

How do I remove yahoo toolbar I didn't install from Firefox, 4 is clean. I like clean.

Just recently started using FireFox 4. Is a great browser and I intend to install in my new computer later this afternoon. How do I remove/delete yahoo's toolbar? Yahoo is my email but I don't need their toolbar messing up FireFox.

I removed it by clicking on the "Tools" menu, then select "Add-Ons." Once the list populates, click on "Extensions," then locate the Yahoo Toolbar. Off to the right hand side you can click either "Disable" or "Remove." I disabled it, restarted Firefox 4.0 and no annoying Yahoo toolbar :)

How can I stop Firefox 4.0 from preventing me from installing a Yahoo toolbar?

I have Windows 7. As soon as I download Firefox 4 I lost my Yahoo toolbar. When I try to reinstall it, I keep getting long error messages with lots of numbers that tell me that Firefox prevents the installation. I want my Yahoo toolbar. Clicking on and off the Yahoo toolbar in Tools does not work either.

It is possible that you are still on the beta update channel if you ever installed a Firefox 4 beta version or a release candidate.
You can check that by looking at the pref app.update.channel on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.
If the value of that pref is beta then it is better to download and install the latest Firefox 4.0.x release.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

My Yahoo Toolbar is gone. I tried re-installing it several times but it just won't work.

'''My Yahoo Toolbar has disappeared'. I tried re-installing it several times but it just won't appear in the Toolbar space. I looked in the Toolbar view and it is checked. I even tried unchecking and re-checking the Yahoo Toolbar view. No luck. Please help. I use that toolbar constantly.''

Could be. They're in the midst of updating their servers at the moment so expect the odd mishap now and again.
Oh, and could you click the "Solved" button so that it takes this thread out of the loop?
Thanks.

Hi...how can you install a news version...without...Gologle & Yahoo toolbars?

Hi...why have you done this to Firefox????? No...Google or Yahoo toolbars???? Are you nuts......you have to add them.
Thanks....Tom Weeden

Hmm, I hadn't thought of that. I didn't actually build a package from it, because I didn't know where the problem was. So I just compiled a bunch of things the old fashioned way and ran them without installing anything until I had narrowed down the problem. But I'm sure there's an mplayer-svn in AUR I could use - good idea.

I installed firfox 4.0 w/ yahoo toolbar, but didn't like & now my toolbar looks funny
