My yahoo tool bar wont open on firefox 4.0

when i open firefox my yahoo tool bar isnt visible and the refresh button does not work

Thanx. I suspected it might have something to do with FF 4.0 still being in Beta. Guess I'm heading back to the old version until such time as the changes are made.
Again, many thanx. Pete

When you download Firefox from an official Mozilla download mirror website, you don't get a Yahoo Toolbar with Firefox.
Get rid of your current Firefox installation and download Firefox from here:

I want to unload Yahoo tool bar and go back to firefox tool bar but cannot pull up a "tool bar" it is missing as well as the back icon My book marks are apparently in the firefox format and I cannot access them

I want to restore firefox tool bars so I can have the back icon and my bookmarks accessable. I now have Yahoo tool bar and it does not show file, tools, edit, etc.

'''''"does not show file, tools, edit, etc."''''': That is the Menu Bar; see below

''Windows'' Method 1. '''''Hold down''''' the key and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M then release the key
''Windows'' Method 2. Tap once on the F10 key, while the Menu bar is visible, choose "View > Toolbars", click "Menu Bar" so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
''Windows'' Method 3. Tap once and release the key. The Menu Bar will be displayed; then choose ~~red:V~~iew > ~~red:T~~oolbars and click on ~~red:M~~enu Bar so that a check mark is placed next to Menu Bar
The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again using View > Toolbars. Check mark = displayed, NO check mark = not displayed.

I no longer get my bookmarks in my dropdown menu on my yahoo tool bar plus i cannot add or delete apps on my yahoo toolbar.i believe this all started w/ a firefox upgrade of some sort.

i no longer get my bookmarks in my drop down menu on my yahoo tool bar plus i cannot add or delete apps on my yahoo toolbar. i have emailed yahoo and they said it is not their trouble & to call at&t and i called att and they said not their trouble go back to yahoo .......but i believe this all started w/ a firefox upgrade of some sort.

I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

When I downloaded Firefox 5.0, I lost my Yahoo tool bar. I want to go back to Firefox 4.6. I tried a system restore but it didn't help. I want my Yahoo tool bar BACK and Firefox 5.o isn't compatable. Fred Fouche'

I was happy with 4.6, but the little window said it was necessary to download 5.0. Please get me back to 4.6 so I can have the Yahoo tool bar. Thanx

Fire fox shows a window which indicates that the yahoo tool bar does not have a security cert. Then runs using 99% processor

a window pops up when i open Firefox which indicates that the Yahoo tool bar does not have a security cert. Seems to lock up when going to Comcast.net. Uses 99% processor and won't close.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

Do not want Yahoo tool bar, want google. get rid of Yahoo toolbar?

I have not been able to find how to get rid of "piece of garbage" Yahoo tool bar....

Normally, you can remove toolbars, which are a type of add-on known as an Extension, on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then you should find it listed on the right side. If there is no Remove button, then you usually need to find it in the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, and remove it there.
Success?
If you installed the "Yahoo edition" of Firefox by accident, you can switch to the regular release by downloading the installer from the following page and running it (no need to remove your existing setup):
https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
You might still need to clean up a few settings, but let us know how you do.

New version will not work with yahoo tool bar. How can I fix this problem ?

I downloaded the new version of Firefox and it will not work with my yahoo toolbar anymore.It worked fine until I updated to the new version. I have went back to the old version 16.0 and now it keeps saying my version is out of date. How can I fix this problem and get the new version to work with my yahoo tool bar?

For starters make sure you have the latest Yahoo toolbar.

How do I Restore FieFox to my old 3.6 version with the Yahoo Tool bar

I Restored my PC but IE7 nor Firefox would restore nor connect.
I Down loaded & installed Firefox 4.0 but it does not give me the old Yahoo Tool Bar NOR the Book Marks in my old Firefox.
How Do I make Firefox with the Yahoo Tool bar my default Browser?

Can you explain what you mean by you restored your PC? Did you run a Windows System Restore? Usually that won't have any direct effect on Firefox (it won't help, but it won't hurt).
Before proceeding further, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings (including Bookmarks) in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
This article describes some solutions when it appears that Bookmarks are gone: [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Lost%20Bookmarks Lost Bookmarks | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help].
If you prefer to reinstall Firefox 3.6, you can download it here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
You could install Firefox 3.6 over Firefox 4 (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Yahoo tool bar was added during last fire fox update, I do not want it.

I believe when fire fox updated last week I got a yahoo tool bar. I was not asked if I wanted it. I do not want it. I have 3 search bars now as was. I want to remove it and can not find any place on computer to remove it.
How do I remove it?

URLs typed into IE address bar get opened in Firefox.

New Windows XP SP3 reload. I’ve re-installed most of my software, including FF, and also including a “collection” of older versions of IE, used for site development and testing.
But I can’t get Windows automatic updates to work because whatever I enter into ANY IE address bar gets opened in Firefox instead.
This behaviour is not observed in Opera or Safari or Chrome.

Cannot remove yahoo tool bar

I have re-installed version 4 three times. It loads a yahoo tool bar. Did an agv scan before loading last time still loads tool bar. If I can't remove this I will switch back to Internet Explorer. Wished I didn't update liked it before very annoyed.

Is there a pencil icon in the toolbar? if there is click on it and there should be an uninstall option.
You can also use the add-ons manager to uninstall it - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

I updatedn firefox and it put a yahoo tool bar on my start page how do i get rid of it. i do not see anywhere to delete or uninstall the yahoo toolbar

i was in firefox doing something and i got a message stating that i needed to update firefox to 28 so l clicked and installed it. well it also installed a freaking yahoo annoying tool bar that i cannot delete. its not in my installed programs so i cannot delete from there. i tried right clicking on an empty space on the tool bar to see if i could get rid of it there and i cannot. can someone tell me how to get rid of it. or tell me how to go back to my previous version for firefox if that will get rid of it. otherwise i just might uninstalled firefox and then reinstall

hello, please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
 also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
 finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

My system needs internet explorer for a application I need to down load, however I need to down load the latest yahoo tool bar for internet explorer to work properly and firefox will not allow the down load of yahoo toolbar. How do I fix this?

I have not used Internet explorer since downloading firefox and I need IE for a trading platform that I need to use. In order to get IE working I apparently need to down load the latest version of Yahoo toolbar, however when I try to down load the tool bar Firefox will not allow the down load of that file.

Thank you so much, for once in my computer life I knew what the problem was, what caused it, why it was caused, what it did, what it made it do and most importantly how to fix it and to do it correctly and expeditiously. I can not Thank You all enough for all of the help! I also have Pogo mailed this to all on my friends list, where they have all learned as I have and have fixed theirs also. and the message is being spread. Thank You again, I just can not say it enough.
