My AVG safesearch toolbar has disappeared and I cannot seem to make it reappear.

I have two problems.
1.I finally downloaded the latest version of Firefox, which I had been trying to avoid since the last time I did so I had numerous problems. Now that I have done so, my AVG safe search toolbar has disappeared.
2. In addition, when I previously visited secure sites, I could tell because a yellow padlock symbol would appear in the bottom right hand corner of the page. This has now gone, so I have no way of knowing if I am on a SSL site or not and I am worried by this as I do all my banking and shopping online.
Can anyone please advise me on these matters? Thanks.

Latest update: AVG has released an update version; 2012.0.2126 which fixed the AVG Safe Search add-on. If you upgrade to this version, your AVG Safe Search add-on will be ENABLED again by FF. Also AVG had added another add-on called "AVG Do-Not-Track". You can install it if you want it, which is an option when you upgrade.

  • Since the 3.6 upgrade, my bookmark toolbar has disappeared and I cannot add any bookmarks. The places.sqlite file is gone as is the Firefox folder in application support. It has been replaced by a Mozilla folder that has nothing in it.

    Firefox will not recognize the backup file for bookmarks. It says "unable to process backup file". There is no places.sqlite file to delete. There is nothing in the profile folder

    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.

  • My firefox toolbar has disappeared and a stupid Yahoo one is there now

    I went on Firefox tonight and my toolbar has disappeared and been replaced by a Yahoo one. There are no icons at the top, no Firefox icon, and my bookmarks are gone. I didn't do anything! Help!

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • My pages icon has disappeared and I cannot access the program!!

    My Pages icon has disappeared and I cannot access the program

    Have you tried opening Spotlight (Command + spacebar or click the magnifying glass icon near the right end of the menu bar) and typing "pages" into it to see if it finds Pages?
    If it is found and the problem is that it isn't showing on the Dock, you can open Finder and then use the Finder "Go" menu and click Applications, locate Pages and drag it to the Dock.

  • The icon for volume has disappeared and I cannot get it back....

    The icon ;in my task bar for the volume has disappeared and I cannot get it back.  I tried the customization feature, and it says that the icon is visible but it is not.  then it says the feature will appear when it become available??? When will that be and why has it gone?

    Is this a laptop? If so i have that problem periodically. Turn over the laptop >Take out the battery> turn over the laptop again> push/ hold the power button about 15 seconds> reinstall battery. This worked for me. 

  • Links toolbar has disappeared and can't get it back

    My "Links" toolbar has disappeared. I use the xmarks addon and it has not been able to fix it. This has also happenned on Internet Explorer on the same machine. I run the same version of Firefox and IE on another machine and laptop and the toolbar is there.
    When I rightclick next to the menubar, the Links Toolbar is not there to enable. Seems like some registery setting has been altered if it has affected IE as well as Firefox.
    Any ideas? Help would be most appreciated.

    Thanks, how do I view the photos titles as a list then as opposed to having to view them as small previews all the time? I was sure that at one stage I was viewing them as lists as opposed to a small preview each. I can't work out how I was doing that.
    Cheers,

  • My Yahoo toolbar has disappeared and also my "bookmarks". How do I get them back on both gmail and yahoo?

    Hello Firefox:
    I am quite dismayed at changes that have recently been made on my two email accounts; gmail and yahoo.
    My yahoo toolbar has completely disappeared along with the bookmarks of which I had several.
    Not long ago my "favorites" list disappeared and I had to replace it with "bookmarks".
    WHAT IS GOING ON?
    I also do not like the e-mail changes with the send box having the "send" and other tools on the BOTTOM. How awful. Change doesn't always mean "better".
    Will you please advise me as to how I may get my toolbar and bookmarks back?
    ALSO, the e-mails do not fit my computer screen and many times I have shut down the e-mail and re-enter my passwords in order to get out of a page. CAN YOU FIX THIS? Everything worked so well before.
    Please tell me where I can get help with these items. I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER.

    Click Firefox (orange) button > Preferences > [x] check the yahoo Toolbar
    Press CTRL + SHIFT + O to show all the Bookmarks

  • I just installed Firefox 29.01 and the text labels on my toolbar have disappeared and there doesnt seem to be a way to put them back. How do I do this?

    MY QUESTION IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE USER BELOW ASKED (WHICH I HAVE PASTED BELOW), AND HE GOT A STANDARD (AND USELESS) RHETORICAL ANSWER FROM THE SUPPORT STAFF. PLEASE LOOK AT THE SPECIFIC QUESTION ASKED AND DO NOT ANSWER WITH A GENERIC ANSWER LIKE "THIS IS HOW TO ACCESS THE CUSTOMIZATION SCREEN" BECAUSE I FOUND THE CUSTOMIZATION SCREEN WITHOUT HAVING TO ASK AND THAT SCREEN DOES NOT SHOW HOW TO TURN ON THE FEATURE I NEED! DO YOU WONDER WHY I USE ALL CAPS? IF YOU READ THE ACTUAL QUESTION WHEN IT WAS WRITTEN IN LOWER CASE, I WOULDN'T NEED TO USE ALL CAPS!
    Last night I updated to Firefox 29.0.1. Now, I don't mind change - and I don't mind redesigns - but I HATE it when options are removed. I want text labels on my buttons (the "Home" button for example"). In the previous version of Firefox you could right-click in the grey space at the top, and select "customise". From there, you could drag and drop which things you wanted to appear in your toolbar or not - and there was a tickbox to selext if you wanted text labels to appear underneath them or not. Now as hard as I look, I can't find this option. It looks like you're now forcing people to ONLY use icons. I hate that. My brain processes the word "Home" a lot faster than it recognises a little picture of a house. You need to understand that people work in different ways - and just because the Firefox developers might not personally use the text labels, that doesn't mean that no-one does!

    I agree with whereitis above, I hate it when options are removed (ex: the Bookmarks side panel (Ctrl-B) button missing) etc.. Firefox's major BOLD one-liner is: CUSTIMAZATION. Now to regain this CUSTIMAZATION freedom, Firefox suggest to solve this by installing the ADDON "Classic Theme Restorer". I don't want to install any ADDON to customize Firefox! I went with Firefox because it was CUSTOMIZABLE, and that is the only reason why I went with this web browser! Now, Firefox is asking me to add an ADDON to CUSTOMIZE it. What is this?!

  • The shortcut icon I had in the quick lanch task bar has disappeared and I cannot find it. Help!

    The icon I had for Firefox in the quick launch task bar has disappeared. I am running XP Pro on a AMD dual core desk top computer. My internet provider is Verizon.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == I clicked on the icon

    In my case, the icon is still in the quick launch, but it's just the icon that windows uses when it can't find the right one. When I locate the firefox exe file, it has no icon

  • The bookmarks toolbar has disappeared and will not show even though it is checked in the toolbar list.

    I did install the 4 beta, but went back to 3 because I hated the interface changes. I don't know if this is related or not.

    Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • My settings changed without notice and without my intervention. Yahoo is my homepage but I can't make it my homepage again. I get Google instead. Also, my bookmarks are messed up and the toolbar has disappeared and I can't recover it.

    I think that is enough detail.

  • The icon for Norton Identity Safe has disappeared and I can't figure out how to get it back on my toolbar.

    I use Norton which has a feature called "Identity Safe." In the old version of Mozilla, the icon for this feature was available on my toolbar. Now that I have converted to the latest version of Firefox, the icon has disappeared and I cannot figure out to get it back. I can still activate the Identity Safe by opening Norton, but I want to restore the shortcut.

    Symantec have made an update for their add-ons to work in Firefox 4, but they only listed them as compatible with Firefox 4.0, they need to update them to let them work in Firefox 4.0.1, they have indicated this will be happening soon. For details see http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Norton-product-compatibility-with-Firefox-Updates/m-p/443808

  • My Shape tool, which used to be in the left toolbar has disappeared. How do I get it back?

    I have PSE9 and have used PSE to edit screen shots. Some screenshots have required that I place an arrow to point to a specific location. I have used the shape tool for this purpose. For some reason, the shape tool has disappeared and I cannot figure out how to get it back. How can I restore the shape tool to the toolbar?

    Press U on the keyboard to cycle through nested tools,  and you should see it.

    when i am on my home screen or locked screen, my battery usage and service toolbar has disappeared. How can i get it back?

    Yeah there's no setting for that. So either you don't have an iPhone, or your iPhone is jail broken. If it's jail broken, just restore to factory and all will be fixed :)
