Since installing Firefox 4 I can't see the encryption symbol (e.g. for online banking)on the lower right corner

Some sites are providing encryption certificates , so like ebay, and of course all internet banking sites. Previous versions of Firefox had been shown a symbol in the lower right corner (lock) with more details about the certificate. Is it still availabble, and how?
Thanks for help and
best regards
Georg

In Firefox 4 you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
You can click the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar to see the padlock.
A click on the "More Information" button will show details about the connection.
The background color of the "Site Identity Button" on the left end of the location bar will change color (blue or green) and show the domain in case of a secure https connection.
* Hover the Site Identity Button then to see "Verified by xxxx"
* Click the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar to see the padlock
* Click the "More Information" button in that pop-up to see additional information about the connection.
You can also look at this extension:

  • Since installing Mavericks I can't see my photos. I try downloading iPhoto but it won't let me. What should I do?

    Please help. All my photos are backed up on time machine but without iPhoto I can't access them.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    Are you using a nightly build or a beta?<br />
    Did you create a new profile folder for that beta?<br />
    You can see the crash reports in the "Crash Reports" folder in the parent Firefox folder of your profile folder.

  • When I open up firefox, I can only see the top toolbar. No window/webpage appears. WHat is wrong?

    When I open firefox, I can only see the top toolbar, including the tabs. The webpage and window below are gone. All I see is the top toolbar, tabs and my background... HELP!

    Did you also try to delete the localstore.rdf file in the profile folder?
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf
    Try to reinstall Firefox.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/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 Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • I have installed Elements 13 on my Mac but can't see how to open it. When I click on the disk icon it takes me to an information page that gives no information about opening Elements 13.

    I have installed Elements 13 on my Mac but can't see how to open it. When I click on the disk icon on the desktop it takes me to an information page that gives no information about opening Elements 13. How do I open the software so that it can be used?

  • Why i can't see any image on flickr. That happens most of the times but not always? Both Safari and Firefox

    Why i can't see any image on flickr.
    That happens most of the times but not always?
    Both, on Safari and Firefox i experience the same problem!
    I reseted Safari but seems to be useless

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Since installing Firefox Sync my master password is requested randomly.

    Since installing Firefox Sync my master password is requested randomly. is there a way of stopping this happening.

    Somewhere around Firefox 29, Firefox changed how Sync accounts work. Please see this article for more information: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]. If you can't do that in Firefox 33, you may want to install Firefox 29 temporarily to do the account change, and then update to Firefox 33. This article has information on how to find clean old versions of Firefox: [[Install an older version of Firefox]].

  • Since installing Firefox 4, screen goes black when dormant and will not automatically reopen on first try.

    Since installing Firefox 4, if I leave the computer (desktop with a Viewsonic VG1930wm monitor), the monitor will go to blackscreen...not the starfield screensaver. If I move the mouse, the screen will only momentarily go back to the last desktop...and then almost immediately black screen again. I typically have to turn the monitor on and off five or six times...and move the mouse each time, before it will stay open to the desktop. Any ideas?

    Standard troubleshooting steps in order are as follows:
    Power the iPad off and on.
    An iPad reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
    Restore your iPad with iTunes from your iPad's backup.
    Restore your iPad with iTunes as a new iPad or not from your iPad's backup.
    If no change after the last step, your iPad has a hardware problem.

  • Since installing firefox i cannot access my hotmail or gmail accounts.

    Since installing firefox i seldom am able to access my hotmail account and my gmail account. I can access my net zero account with no problems. What might be causing this.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == When I installed Firefox about 3 weeks ago.

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Since installing firefox update I no longer have a padlock displayed when on secure sites. Is this still OK?

    Since installing Firefox update today, 11/11/2011, when entering secure web sites I no longer have the display of a padlock. I still have Https. I am wondering if the security of these sties is still OK.

    The Statusbar is gone and the "lock" with it as of Firefox 4.0. Security information about a web page is shown by the Site Identity Button.<br />
    The old padlock could give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site and only showed that there is a secure connection that didn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site Identity Button was introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete "identity" information for HTTPS web pages. <br />
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site+Identity+Button
    You can add a padlock to the location bar with the Padlock add-on- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon

  • On a Windows 7 computer I installed Firefox 9.0.1 and in my edit menu I have NO Preferences at the bottom, so there is no way to adjust any settings

    On a Windows 7 computer I installed Firefox 9.0.1 and in my edit menu I have NO Preferences at the bottom, so there is no way to adjust any settings The edit menu opens up and I have undo, redo, cut, copy, paste,delete,select all, find....but NO Preferences at the bottom. This is a new laptop and nothing like skype is installed. The Firefox install is new today 1/6/12

    Hi bruce,
    What are you actually looking for? On Windows 7 your options will be under ''Tools > Options''. If you have the ''Firefox'' menu, you can hit ''Alt'' to temporarily enable the menu bar.
    Your System details say Linux. Your say you are on Windows 7 though, correct?

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
    This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
    If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Since installing firefox my emails from yahoo will not print anymore. No error message just nothing

  • How can I disable the Facebook Notification in Firefox 6 which takes my focal point from what I am typing until I close the notification in the lower right corner.

    When I have Facebook open, I get pop-ups in the lower right corner that tell me that I have new notifications or messages in Facebook. When the little pop-up shows, no matter what I am typing, my cursor is taken away until I click the x to close the pop-up. It is very annoying and slows me down so much. It disables my typing.
    If this cannot be resolved, I will either go back to version 5 or uninstall Firefox completely.

    Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

    You can always revert your system to how it was 2 days ago by reinstalling from your Time Machine Backup. Otherwise I would be having a read through the Yahoo Troubleshooting forums for people who may have a similar problem.
