Plug-ins/add-ons/shortcuts

Hello ,
I was struggling with playing a SWF file in a PDF and Arnis pointed me in the right direction and also got me to download a plug-in that sets the printer to pdf as standard;
http://www.sundorne.com/FrameMaker/Freeware/setPrint.htm
The only thing I've ever done is the old changing the maker.ini file line ClipboardFormatsPriorities=FILE, OLE 2, EMF, META, DIB, BMP, MIFW, MIF, RTF, UNICODE TEXT, TEXT to read ClipboardFormatsPriorities=TEXT, FILE, OLE 2, EMF, META, DIB, BMP, MIFW, MIF, RTF, UNICODE TEXT in order to paste Word text without using the Paste Special.
Does anybody else have any useful additions?

I actually made this happen a few versions back, but I don't remember how I did it. I have looked through the about:config entries and can't find it. I looked through the ...xul keybindings and did not find it. I know it can (or recently could) be done, but I don't remember how.
The problem with the existing shortcut is that on a laptop, the Home button is frequently sharing space with another key. It is a hassle to have to access Home and the alt key when accessing Home is itself an operation.
The problem with add-ons is that I cannot, in a reasonably quick momentary glance, determine their safety now, nor in the future as they are updated. Since Mozilla does not certify add-ons as safe, I prefer to avoid them.
Other programs don't present such difficulties with simple things like modifying shortcuts. It's pretty standard for that to be accessible from a Customize submenu in one of the main drop-downs.

Save my Firefox Plug-Ins & Add-Ons for future use

I want to save my installed Firefox Plug-Ins & Add-Ons so I can install them directly on my second PC. I mean directly, so I don't have to search for them 1 by 1 .
Is there some sort of Export for these?
Thx

I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back. So probably won't run on modern operating systems. If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

If I install FF 4, are my settings, plug-ins, add-ons, passwords, - lost ?

This seems like the obvious information to have in the introduction to any 'upgrade' document. What will I gain' seems hyped, 'what will I lose' seems ignored. I spent a year or so, gradually getting Firefox 3 amended, setup, & configured as rqd for my needs, into a comfortable tool. Will I have to suddenly stop my actual work, to re-learn how to get all the (18) plug-ins, and passwords, and add-ins, etc. re-installed and working again? or can I hope that the new install brings those forward? I have been unable to find any mention of what happens to the setup of the old version. Must I look forward to a month or two of re-solving last year's problems for the new version?

The missing word was disable, not sure what happened there.I've corrected it now.
In the compatibility list, 4.0.* means it works with 4.0, and should also work with 4.0.1, 4.0.2 etc when they are released.
Those with numbers below 4.0 will not work in Firefox 4.

How can I reset Firefox without losing plug ins,add-ons etc?

Firefox is slow to start. I have reset it but then have to redo plug ins,etc. Can I avoid this?

you can set up a sync account and choose to sync addons.
Wait some time (an hr or so? Not entirely sure), so all the information is synced to the server.
Then refresh firefox, and sign back into the synced account. This will bring back all the bookmarks, histories, passwords, and addons.

Can I Save plug ins & add ons for next Format & Reload

I Wish to save Add On's & Plug In's to save me looking for them next time I format & reload my Pc again?

I have just updated my plug in & add ons, but they are several that say to research. How do I know what plug ins are necessary for mozilla to run properly. I really don't want a bunch of unnecessary downloads on my computer

None are '''''necessary''''' to use Firefox, but some parts of some web pages aren't going to work without a specific plugin being installed.

Why do the plug-in add ons have to notify you of up dates so often - can these notifications be turned off ?

When opening Firefox - (since edition 8) many of the plug-in products open also to notify of some type of change -- if this was once a month or so -- then that is ok but it happens to all my Firefox Browsers (5 desk tops here at home) most every day or every other day -- way too much waste of time -- and now I don't care for this notification -- CAN THIS SERVICE BE TURNED OFF IN FIREFOX SOME HOW ?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

Please keep in mind that Oracle (Java) and Adobe (Flash) have had a large number of updates the later part of this year containing security and stability fixes for their plugins. If you are unaware that an update has been released you may miss those fixes.

I Need To Know All Programs/Plug-ins/Files Bundled With CS2 Design Standard Suite

I am the Unit Software License Manager for my office at a government installation. I am in charge of accounting for all licensed software (both the physical CDs and the licenses/serial #s/Registration #s) being used on the computers in my office. Currently, I have a master list that shows all software used, including the main programs, plug-ins, add-ons, settings, toolkits, servers, drivers, etc., on all our stations. I need to break the list down to show which of these programs, etc., were bundled to the CS2 Design Standard suite specifically. Does anyone have any knowledge of the complete list that was bundled with CS2 Design Standard? Thanks.

What plug ins, extensions, settings, etc. mess with Disqus?

I have Firefox 22 on Widows 8 with a bunch of plug ins, add ons. But even when i disable the those i still can't log in to Disqus to comment on sites that use it for their comment section ...
i have contacted them and gotten no resolution ....

Thank you! This has been driving me crazy ......
So this is a problem with Firefox? Are they working with Disqus to fix it? It is a real pain! Most of the sites i visit have Disqus enabled comment sections .. and I used to comment often - until "upgrading" my computer has shut me out ...

IMovie10 supports plug-ins created with Motion5

ok, first of all:
You signed on first launch of iMovie to accept the Terms Of Use… which, somewhere, mentions, you are using this software 'as is'.
ANY manipulations to its internals violates this ToU!
So, I'm just talking academic here, and I will NOT share here the process in detail. I found the idea on the net, smarter people like me had found it. But as a long-time contributor on this board, mentioned as one of the 'Top Participants' in this community, I feel the obligation, to share this insight:
as you can see here…
a) my handmade, own Motion5 title appears in iM10 Titles browser
b) it shows the generic preview icon as any M5 effect
c) you can apply it to the project
d) it works…
Haven't had the time to dig any deeper; the part of iMovie, which is 'in charge' for plugins, is even localized:
… and lists the many 'effects' tabs of iMovie10…
I haven't tested yet, what is all 'allowed', what works, what not.
AGAIN: This is just a 'proof of concept'!
If you like to try on your own, be aware of what you do!
Finally:
Goiod News!
… opens the door for 3rd-party plug-ins/add-ons/themes!
(one of the Top 3 on my wishlist)

On first launch, when being asked to update my data-base, I selected 'later'.
So, I started with an 'empty' version = flawless, including my lil' 'hack'/experiment.-

How to transfer all settings, add-ons, etc from XP to Win7

Is there a way or program whereby I can transfer all my settings, plug-ins, add-ons, etc from Firefox 3.6 on XP to new Windows7 install. So I can just start Firefox on the new system an all my settings are like they were on the old OP?

User data is stored in the profile folder, there are some add-ons and utilities that can help you copy the profile folder from one computer to another. The first one is the FEBE add-on ([https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/febe/]) which can be used to copy a profile. Another option is the free MozBackup utility ([http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/])

I do updates and then have to reinstall previous versions - time and time again because of the number of unsupported add-ons

4 or 5 times I've updated Firefox only to have to reinstall the previous version due to incompatibility with add-ons / plug-ins / toolbars. I'm not a big user of Toolbars but I have some add on I use daily.
The last 3 times I did a "suggested by Firefox" update I've had to reinstall a previous version from my saved files in order to use Firefox. This problem has caused me to return to IE as my default browser - but unwillingly.
My current setup is Firefox 4.0.1 Beta and I had to reinstall a version 3 in the Firefox folder until addons starting working in this 4.0.1 Beta. However 4.0.1 has always hung up, even opening a tab and ceases to respond; sometimes for minutes.
I run Win XP - SP3 Dell Pentium 4 - 3.0ghz with 4 gigs of DDR2 - GX520. So it's not an equipment problem - (I have 4 PC's on my home LAN - although each serves it's purpose and seldom are 2 used at the same time.
When I installed 4.0.1 and then reinstalled 3.x ... I've been hoping for an update --- I love Firefox - have ever since first use - and then today I saw the update versions had jumped from 4 all the way to 7. I was enthused.
Same issue. On install over the V 3.x it showed 6 items of add-ons that were incompatible. I did not remove the V 7 ... I simple reopened the 4.0.1 beta. I use it for single page browsing as tabs locks it up or slows it to a crawl.
I'm having to continue using IE as my default --- I always keep a backup browser, but I don't care for much of anything that has an MS on it's name.
I've never posted to Mozilla ... but the idea crossed my mind over a year ago when I updated and had to back-up and reinstall. WHY can't a program precede the update to check for compatibility, just as an upgrade adviser from one OS to another?
This was the biggest list of all. NET Framework Assistant, Google Toolbar, Yahoo Toolbar, Roboform ... there were 2 others. I don't use the Yahoo Toolbar. I have Google Toolbar installed but keep it hidden except when I need it (for Page Rank, etc., I work websites).
But I won't use a browser that doesn't support AI Roboform.
I honestly love Firefox. I code webpages - .asp, .html and do SEO ... but I don't know the difficulty of writing even a small application. Would it be too difficult to have a small program that would check for these add-on incompatibilities before installing the updates.
I was impressed with 4.0.1 beta until I realized that opening a new window or tab bogged it down.
I want Firefox back but not with band-aids and work-around bandages. Is there a version between 4.0.1 and v7 which I tried tonight that would support my plug-ins / add-on. My experience with Firefox using versions up to 3.x has been great. But for months and months I open 4.0.1 and open my TV guide at ZapIt and then I've had to use IE 8 for all my web browsing.
My most important add-on is for Roboform and 2nd would be for Google Toolbar - but on a scale of 1-10 Roboform is a 10+ and Google Toolbar a 3.
If this post does not go to the support team at Firefox then how would I go about suggesting an Update Adviser prior to installing an update?
Anyone with a flexible solution - even short term - that would allow me to see Firefox improvements since the v4 I'm using would be more appreciated than I could ever express.
Since I've never posted before I'm not even sure how I'll get a response or be able to see any responses. Something during the registration said I could get an email when a reply was posted.
Thanks again for listening to me whimper and beg for a workable Firefox; I miss it.

this is all I can find, thank you for your time.

Videos will no longer play and add-ons and plug-ins say up to date?

My computer no longer plays videos-- whether on facebook or youtube... facebook videos get a tiny square but never open to play-- youtube screen where video should be is blank... all add-ons and plug-ins say up to date. I have comcast internet. Thank you

Please try two things, please clear the storage for the flash plug in by right clicking where the video should be and clicking "Global settings" and navigate to storage. Clear the stored data and restart Firefox.
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

Certain websites don't play - add-ons or plug-ins interfere

I've been having strange problems for a couple of weeks. In general, my computer works okay, but certain websites don't manage to play videos or audio while others do. I tried disabling the av firewall to see if that was blocking anything, but it wasn't the cause. Both Flash Player and Java are fully installed, including the Firefox plug-ins and add-ons that are recommended for them, i.e., Shockwave player or Java updates. (Must I keep the old add-ons for Java if they are updated or should I disable them or delete them somehow?) Someone told me it could be my javascript, but that is checked off properly in options.
My CA av program found a "possible" Trojan over a month ago and located it in a particular java file, so I ended up deleting that file and reloading java. When I would go to java.com, it said I was full operational. Then I downloaded a couponprinter and kept getting told that I needed to load java. I reloaded it twice, but kept getting the same message. Yesterday, I woke up to find a message that Firefox recommended disabling a java plug-in because it makes the computer unstable. Only when I finally uninstalled java completely and reinstalled it, did it begin working fully and I no longer get that Firefox message even though the plug-in is installed. Coupons now print fine and my flash player seems to be operating, but one particular websites just doesn't display the audio player (it's a college radio station). I also developed a problem yesterday trying to open up a web pdf which I never had problems with before, but resolved it when I disabled the Adobe Firefox plug-in. Why would Firefox recommend a plug-in if it only hinders the use of websites?
Also, when I first followed Firefox's suggestions, I opened up Firefox in Safe Mode. When I returned to regular Firefox, the colors of the taskbars had changed - they're all pale grey - and I don't know why or how to change them to the warmer version I used to have. The tint did not come as a result of an installed theme or personality, but it's gone.
Anyway, I'm just confused because add-ons and plug-ins are added and then create new problems, when I thought they are supposed to resolve problems. Can you help me figure out how to get the player on the websites to open?

same problem here for the past two days till this morning when I created a new profile and removed ALL addons from the default profile. With the new profile with NO addons, I got to the sites with video that I had problem with and flash player did work.
Now, I only have three addons that have not created the problem; adblock, flashgot, and flashblock.
Create a new profile and check it out.
