Restoring toolbar buttons?

This is not new question, I just clicked to check on something and lost all my info and could not retrieve it at all so I am starting over with my one major problem so it is not a new question but MY ONE and terribly important question. I believe this first developed when I upgraded to this Firefox version (3.6.13) I lost all of URL-bar! There was just enough space for star and flag(add-ons) but not even 1 mm of space for typing. I read at one spot that it was part of a Windows change that they never told would be an alteration of showing info in FF. I have used blue button for File, Edit, etc toolbar and that is fine just as soon not have that toolbar but went through the safe mode routine not to get menu-bar but would not have taken the action if I knew that my buttons were in danger as I need all my text buttons as well as ALL my toolbar buttons. I have the all text ones, thankfully, but not a one of buttons and I use so very many not one of those is showing anywhere. I have checked to see if they could be at end of any toolbar but they have disappeared completely.
My crisis is that now I have URL bar back after doing "Firefox safe mode and reset of toolbars and controls" and now the text buttons are in place but not even one button. I use custom buttons2 and cute buttons SVG but have never used the SVG one as yet _at least I do not recall using that. I am in desperate shape as I simply cannot remain sane without access to my buttons! Please help! As far as next line-I already answered that and I do not want to close down FF for fear that this condition will become permanent.Quite frankly, after typing this 2 times for the first time I was asking and these areas seem redundant to me so I feel that I have explained repeatedly and hope that I have not left out important info this time but I think you have sufficient info to be able to give me some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

to my surprise, as I was attempting to get help on this problem-here I am back at my own problem that I was attempting to solve some time ago. I was also surprised to see that 40 people have this problem and 5 this week. I wonder if it isn't more but is phrased in a slightly different way but all through-none shows that any response was helpful. My being back to resolve this shows that I am still trying to solve me issue.
I now have gotten my buttons in place but I do not have the text that goes with those buttons and some just take a place with a block that has no identification at all. Please tell me how I can take each and every one of those buttons to get them back to normal. This is slightly different from my original problem.
This is top importance for me. I am up to date with my Firefox 3.6.15 version, use XP64bit Professional, and it has been recommended that I move this to Windows 7-the PC was bought as an XP downgrade from 7 but the Dell tech support person felt that it would be better to do a clean install of 7 after saving my info but since I am having trouble with this loss of usefulness without doing any big change of my PC. So, I need your suggestions on how to fix these buttons and also your tips regarding the jump to 7. I made the decision to get XP after 7 was out because this is business computer and I have my hands full taking care of other new things on my PC and did not want to get used to a new OS at the sane time. I feel that I am still in same situation but if he is right that there must be some sort of malware that I could get rid of by doing this clean install-well, I am trying to talk myself into this and would like to know your thoughts. You have helped me in the past and "the-edmeister" seems to know things that I cannot assess in advance. I don't want to find myself in a place that I wish I had not taken when there is no way back but by same token, it may be the best change to make at this time. Hoping for some new suggestions. I am afraid that you will say that I must reset every button again but whatever is said, I know that I will do whatever it is.

In the dialogue window of "Manage Search Engine List," the "Restore Defautls" button is grayed out!

Hi,
I use Firefox 6.0.1 on Windows 7.
I installed '''Free Desktop Clock 2.37''' from Drive Software, and then Firefox was hi-jacked, though I carefully chose the custom installaion.
Edit: Free Desktop Clock itself does not hi-jack Firefox. It's another program (name forgotten) bundled with Free Desktop Clock that did it, adding a toolbar, changing the homepage, changing the default search engine, etc. Actually, those forced alterations can be changed back easily, such as a resetting of the "keyword.url" pref. So, "hi-jack" may be a description that's too strong.
Anyway, I have managed to clean it up -- unsolicited toolbar, forced homepage, forced default search engine, etc.
But there is still one problem.
In the dialogue window of '''Manage Search Engine List''', which appears when you click the drop arrow on the left of the Search Bar and then click Manage Search Engines, the '''Restore Defaults''' button is disabled (grayed out).
How can that button be re-enabled?
Thanks.

Hi,
Is Free Desktop Clock still listed? If not this may be because the listed search engines are the defaults, so there may be nothing to restore. If you manually added other search engines, you may have to reinstall those separately.

Where is the new tab toolbar button in firefox 6x

in firefox 4.x there is a toolbar button for new tab, where is the button in firefox 6.x?
can this be downloaded as a add-on or theme?

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.
If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window.
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it.

After installing 'Classic Theme Restorer' firefox button not working

installed 'Classic Theme Restorer' to revert back to usable ui.
this hides/removes the firefox button from the toolbar and puts the old firefox button (orange) in the top left corner.
i also added the new 'firefox button' back to the toolbar, since there are options in this menu not present on the old menu.
however, this toolbar button has no effect, and the menu is not opened.
i have already tried resetting the toolbar customization, as well as removing and re-installing the extension.
issue initially started on version 31, and still exists on version 32.0.1
how can i get both the firefox button, addon bar, and stop/refresh buttons to the left of the address bar?

You can try to reset the browser.uiCustomization.state on the about:config page in case there is a problem with the prefs.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

When will there be a "save as" toolbar button in ver 15 like there was in older versions?

in ver 13 [I think] I had a toolbar button that I used to save the web page I was on It was "save as" not just "save"
when is Firefox going to make the new button available or where can I find a version of "save as" somewhere else?

Firefox doesn't come with such a button by default, so if you had one then it was added by an extension.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display.
*View > Toolbars > Customize or via Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

Trying to create two toolbar buttons. Need codes.

I am trying to use the Custom Buttons addon to create the following two toolbar buttons. Bu I need the codes and I didn't get aid at the Custom Buttons official forum. Hope someone here could help.
(1) Force links to open in new background tabs
Click on this button and then everytime you open a link, it opens in a new background tab. Click on it again and then the original setting is restored.
(2) After the current tab is closed, open the right tab
Click on this button and then everytime you close a tab, the tab next to it on the right will be opened. Click on this button again and then the original setting is restored.

Photoshop CC Toolbar buttons sticking.. getting stuck on single click

Toolbar buttons get stuck in dropdown menu with single click... it's extremely irritating especially being in photoshop all day. I have to click the intended tool button twice in order to get rid of the drop down menu options. I realize it should do this when I double click or hold down click.. but not when I simply want to select a tool with a single click. I've tried everything. Please help!

Try resetting the tools:
Also try changing the mouse settings such as double click speed..

Issue with custom toolbar button in alv and leave screen

Hi,
in one subscreen (say screen 100)i have an alv with custom ADD toolbar button..so in the user_command event handler ,i call a antoher screen(dialogue)..like if i click on ADD button ,it should display dialogue screen(say 200) and after entering input in dialogue screen i click on CONINUE to retrun to screen 100..problem is for the first time i click on ADD button its working fine ,succesffyuly returned to screen 100...but for the second time i click on add button , i have to click on twice the CONTINUE button to retrun to screen 100..when debuggin i found the user_command event routin is executin twice ..any solution..
Thanks,
srini

Apparently handler is set for every new ALV instance. This you get by executing CREATE OBJECT alv... every time PBO is raised. Ensure you are executing this statement only once duirng program lifetime. Then the system will match event handler only with one ALV instance (executing it once).
if r_alv is not bound.
CREATE OBJECT r_alv ...
SET HANDLER ...
endif.

Sample script to pop-up txt box on mouse-over on skin toolbar button?

RH9,WebHelp Pro
I am completely new to scripting. I have customised a toolbar button in the skin and while it is easy enough to place a hyperlink to be activated on click, I would also like to display a text caption when the user rolls over the button before clicking.
Can anyone provide or point me to an example of the required syntax?
Thank you.

Hi,
You have to modify the title attribute of the link. The browser will show that text when you hover the link. I believe that WebHelp uses the text of the button as the title.
If that doesn't work for you, you can use the onMouseOver event to show and hide a tooltip. Check out Walter Zorn's tooltip script: http://edwardsmark.com/proofOfConcept/walterZorn/ It has some good examples of how to set up the script.

DEEPLY upset w/rapid-fire updates 2 FF & TB. ex: michael b unable 2 update toolbar buttons; w/out them FF/TB just other apps. this method incredibly disconcerting, frustrating, etc. PLZ RECONSIDER METHOD; go back 2 version changes. annoyed w/mozilla, LA

i've been using [& updating] mozilla FF & TB for years...in large part cause i felt they were the best for my needs, allowed the most functionality...and then became the most attractive with personas. but i found a long time ago, as with most computer applications, to wait till the second version of a new product. this was especially true of mozilla to make sure the add-on developers can keep up.
the add-ons to FF & TB give me so much more functionality....so much better than any other browsers out there. and then there are the changing personas...too match one's changing moods. [all hail MaDonna and her constantly exquisite & innovated art work.]
but mozilla has now made continuing this functionality an impossibility by its new horrible rapid update methodology. because MANY DEVELOPERS CAN NOT KEEP UP with this pace of significant change, FF & TB have been become FAR LESS FUNCTIONAL...and thus more & more like other, previously lesser, browsers & email programs out there,
is this perhaps the clue to go take a look at chrome, safari, opera and other browsers?
using this "update" methodology, will mozilla become like its predecessor, netscape.....OBSOLETE.
or, as has happened with so many other software companies including netscape, many of its employees or contributors saw that they could, in fact, do a better job and so started their own companies, as in how mozilla was born.
we can only hope this will be the case with mozilla: that many of its contributors will band together and divert from the mess that the current mozilla exec team has created.
oh by the way, ff 3.6.19 has suddenly started to crash more often, which i dont understand. and TB has started to freeze. hmmmmm......???????
if i changed browsers, i'd sorely miss personas & the many add-ons i use to customize FF & T B...making them it a much more functional than i ever could have hoped for. but each updated takes so much time & effort and so many add-ons are lost each time anyway, i would also lose that functionality anyway with mozilla. so what's the difference? NADA.
for years i have been an ENTHUSIASTIC SUPPORTER of all things mozilla, encouraging friends and coworkers to install and use it....often going out of my way to install FF & TB for many of them myself.
but as a result of the current "update" methodology by mozilla, i dont think updating FF & TB is worth it anymore so i stopped updating....both personally and professionally.
not only have i stopped recommending FF & TB, as the computer tech at an elementary school i no longer update FF or TB on the dozens of our existing computers that i previously installed them on and i no longer install it on our new computers. in fact, because the update situation in terms of add-ons has given some of my people such a headache, i have actually UNINSTALLED FF and TB on some computers...and, horror of horrors, they have actually gone back to microsoft internet explorer than risk what they have just gone thru with mozilla.
many on our staff are not so computer savvy so they depend on me for my computer advise and assistance.
each our classrooms has 2-4 computers, plus we have many more in our main offices, resource room, library, etc. we just ordered a 30-laptop mobile computer lab: i will make sure FF & TB are NOT installed on them.
our entire school campus has just had wi-fi installed. this will allow many on our staff to use their own laptops on campus. i will be discouraging them from installing FF or TB too.
JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS POSSIBLE DOESN'T MEAN IT IS THE RIGHT OR BETTER THING TO DO.
mozilla's exec team has failed to realize this...and for this reason alone i think they should all be sacked!!
just as some at netscape thought they could do a better job and formed mozilla, I PRAY some mozilla people will see the LACK OF MERIT in the current mozilla methodology and move out, starting a new browser company reinstating the functionality and sensibility that mozilla once had.
many developers can not keep up with this either....they also have lives, many of them very busy.
so this update method is unfair to developers and users. THIS ALL SPELLS INCONSIDERATION BY SMARTY-PANTS MOZILLA EXECUTIVE TEAM.
another problem at mozilla, getting more and more like evil microsoft in terms of DISALLOWING customer response.. i went to make a comment in another area, it would not even let me UNTIL I "UPGRADED" [if that's what it is] till the newest frustrating version. BOO HISS. BAD FORM MOZILLA
mozilla looks like it is replicating microsoft's outrageous methodology of updating its products AND treatment of consumers. but even ms doesnt do crazy updating too often. frequency of updating is way too much. OOOPPS....mozilla IS making the oft-hated microsoft look good. who could have thunk it.
or will mozilla end up going the way of netscape.......oblivion.
my frustration increases daily with mozilla's repetitious notifications to update to TB 6. not a chance until i can have MY michael b toolbar button add-ons.
as far as i am concerned the mozilla exec team has gone from stable & reliable to chaotic messiness. SHAME SHAME SHAME.

Create a toolbar/button in Acrobat 8.0

I am sorry for my rather simple title, but at this stage I do not know what I am looking for.
I want to give the possibility for someone using Adobe Acrobat 8.0 pro to be able to save a pdf document they currently have open into a database.
For example in Office this is simple, I created an addin that got the document or email as an object and I sent the object to my MS Access database. MS Access then saves the file somewhere and I upload the file with the known path.
But maybe there is a simple way maybe I can create a button that saves the pdf in a special place and then signals either the MS Access database or even a small .dll/exe I have that this button has been clicked and then this .dll/exe can wake up the MSAccess databae and tell it to do some work.
Any help would be greatl appreciated.

Ok so spoon feeding is not an option in this forum.
So could someone humour me with at least the "yes" word or "no" word.
I can create a toolbar button which will automatically load when Acrobat loads by making a Plug-in?
If my Target "Acrobat" family member is Acrobat Standard 8.1.5 (note not pro) I need to get the 8.0/8.1 SDK to help me?
My Plug-in is going to be written in Visual Studio 2005/2008?
I must learn/use C/C++ for my plugin language?
I will compile the .dll and then make it an .api file extension?
To give my .api to someone else I need only put it into the ...\Adobe\Acrobat\plug_ins?
This .api does not need to be registered (regsvr32) or something like that in the Windows registry?
I am sure that might lead to further questions but it is a good start so I know what to google to find out how to do it, and then get some sample code.

Plug-in toolbar button activation question

I'm not a plug-in developer and do not foresee becoming one, but I am trying to understand how Acrobat handles custom toolbar buttons that you add via JavaScript.
Im interested in the cEnable parameter that you can specify when using app.addToolbarButton. With it, you can specify a JavaScript expression that sets the value of event.rc to true or false to control whether the toolbar button is enabled or not. What Im trying to understand is when, exactly, does this expression get evaluated? In my testing, it seems as though it is triggered continuously, but I dont know what particular event(s) triggers it. It is not documented in the Acrobat JavaScript reference.
I tried reading through the plug-in related documentation in the SDK to see if I could figure out what event a plug-in would be likely to register for if it needed to be able to disable its toolbar button(s), but came up empty. If a plug-in wanted to disable a toolbar button in a similar manner, what event(s) should it be listening to?
What is Acrobat using to trigger the evaluation of the code specified with the cEnable parameter for app.addToolbar button? Speculations are welcome if not known.
Thanks,
George

> In that case the cEnable code is run when the button loads and each time a document is opened/closed in that view pane.
It's not just limited to that. Whatever event it is, it seems as though it is continually triggered. For example, if I set the cEnable code to be based on the value of a global variable, the button is affected immediately after I alter the global variable:
cEnable: "event.rc = global.myVar;"
Then, in the JavaScript console, if I execute:
global.myvar = false;
my button immediately becomes disabled. Something must trigger it, and I'm suspecting it's related to the ECMAscript/Forms plug-in and may not be an event that other plug-ins can be notified of.
George

So how do I REALLY get the toolbar buttons to just show icons (and not text)?

On my Bookmarks toolbar, my bookmarks "buttons" show icon AND text. I just want to show icon, not text. When I go right-click.....customize, the window "customize toolbars" opens. Down in the bottom left corner the "show" option dropdown is already set to "icons" (and only icons). But it's just not so. The toolbar buttons show icons AND text. If I cycle through that dropdown just for kicks, it doesn't change; I can choose "icons (only)" all day long, but the toolbar buttons still show text.

Either of the following Add-ons allow you to show icons only and/or to have multiple rows on the Bookmarks Toolbar. Set the options on either after installation.

Quicktime won't display the minimise, restore, close button options in windows microsoft, quicktime won't display the minimise, restore, close button options in windows microsoft

Hi,
I know there will probably be a simple fix for this. Just about all the options in the file menu etc. are grayed out. The usual minimise, restore, close buttons diplayed in microsoft windows applications are not displaying. Would anyone be able to help me find out how to access these please?

I'm doing the exact same thing. Iphone 2g won't connect to the itunes store. I get an error message saying the network connection timed out, but all diagnostics are OK. I've turned off antivirus, firewall, check ie settings, uninstalled/reinstalled itunes... nothing has worked. Have you had any luck? And if so, what did you do?

How to get "Selected" color for custom toolbar buttons?

RH 8.0.2.208
RoboHelp HTML
WebHelp output
I'm getting flack from internal QA folks about the custom toolbar buttons not having the same "selected" color as the default buttons (Contents, Index). I've copied the background color info from the <btnselected></btnselected> section for the built-in Contents to the <btnselected></btnselected> section for a custom toolbar button, but RH is ignoring it.
Any hints?
Leon

You could try using the raw converter. Open one file and edit it (File>Open, pick the image and choose Camera Raw as the format before you click Open). Then open the next image and click the little four-lined square on the upper right side of the ACR window and choose Previous Conversion from the flyout menu.
