What happened to the lock symbol that indicated a secure (https) web page?

I can't seem to see this on the screen any more in any location on the browser when I am at secure sites.

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button

What happened to the "lock" symbol that used to appear when on a secure site? I haven't seen it since the last update, so it's either moved or you took it out. I really miss it!

What happened to the "lock" symbol that used to appear to signify that you were on a secure site? I haven't seen it since the previous update, so it's either moved & I haven't found it, or you took it out. If you did, I want it back!

It's stuck on a yellow question marked "multimedia audio controller." It doesn't like the CD drivers or the drivers snarfed from the aborted "you don't have an sb controller installed" pull from windows\temp\CF whatever it was. It's 3am and I've been trying to get this stupid thing running for 7 hours now. I'm going to bed. I will see if it is any smarter tomorrow morning.
It was running great until I did an "update from the web." If I hadn't have done that I'd have no complaints. Now it's hosed and I can't even get back to where I was before. I'm not impressed with creative's installation procedure.
However, there are many people complaining about the "you don't have an SB installed" problem. Creative needs a "delete everything" button, and an "install all new drivers" button. Take a page out of ATI's book in the number of headaches created by windows installer and come up with a way to fix them yourself. ATI did. This would at least get me back to the BSOD, which right now I'm longing for.
This is on a shuttle st6g4 with a disable ac97 sound nonsense with those drivers removed.

What happened to the lock icon appearing on a secured web page?

Since I upgraded to Firefox 5.0, I do not see the yellow lock icon on the web page indicating it is a secured page, such as an online shopping site where a credit card number or address is entered.

The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the Site Identity Button on the left end of the location (address) bar.

You can use AirPrint to print documents to AirPrint-compatible printers. If your printer is not AirPrint-compatible, then you can try a third-party app such as Printer Pro.

What happened to the illustration window that was on the bottom left part?

What happened to the illustration window that was on the bottom left part of previous versions?
We were also able to choose between the illustration of the selected track and the illustration of the listened track.

Look on the last line where it used to be and hit the arrow icon.

The lock symbol is missing on secure sites and there is no back arrow after browsing

I don't like the new toolbar after upgrading firefox.
1. there is no back button to get out of a page
2. the secure lock symbol is missing on secure sites
Please help with changing these 2 problems

In Firefox 4 and later you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions. 
The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. 
So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL. 
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.

The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.

What happened to the lock icon when using SSL? Cannot easily determine SSL use without using sniffer.

The SSL lock icon does not appear in new Firefox 4 during use of SSL. Why was it removed? Only method of determining successful SSL use is through the use of a sniffer and netstat. There is no obvious lock anywhere in the browser while using SSL
ALSO.... STOP CHANGING THE ORDER OF THE OPEN NEW TAB/OPEN NEW WINDOW UNDER THE FILE->list.

The "Site Identity button", which provides a lot more pertinent information about a web site, was introduced in Firefox 3, and was used along with the "Security Lock icon"; that "Lock icon" was finally removed from Firefox 4 versions.

What happened to the lock icon at the bottom right hand corner?

When I would order items on line, I would see this lock icon at the bottom right hand corner of the window. I thought it meant the site was secure. Now I just see the fox head icon. I don't know if it's secure. Is it?
Nothing is wrong with firefox, but I don't know if this feature has been removed or moved elsewhere. It provided some sense of comfort seeing the lock icon on sites where I was ordering items.

Can't go back or forward more than one page at a time, what happened to the little arrow that allowed you to go back several pages at once.

some websites disable the back button. older versions of firefox i could hit the little arrow on the right of the forward button and it would display several back pages so i could choose which one to go back or forward to. now i go back as far as a disabled page and can't go any further. this is really annoying to lose a feature that i used all the time

There are three options to access the history: (1) Click and hold the back button. (2) Right click the back button (3) If you really want the dropmarker back, install an addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/.
Hope that helps:)

What happened to the little icon that let you switch back & forth from mini player?

In earlier versions of iTunes you could easily switch with from full window to mini player by clicking a small icon on top right of large window. iTunes 12 makes you use a key board shortcut...any thoughts?

You open the MiniPlayer by clicking the artwork in the top central status area.
You close the MiniPlayer by clicking the small X at the top left.
The tool below that shows or hides artwork.

Where is the lock symbol that tells me I am on a secure page in Firefox 5.0

I just recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0. The old version had a little lock in the bottom right hand corner that signified that I was on a secure page (for banking, shopping checkout, etc). I do not know where to check on the page of this new version to be sure that I am on a secure page before entering the required checkout info.
Thanks for your help.

What happen to the Start menu that was promise?

I was so looking forward to the classic start bottom but found it was not present in the new Windows 10 Preview
How is it installed?
What is going on with the window store? I can never get a connection

Hi,
For your first issue of missing Start menu, please check this settings:
Right click the taskbar and choose Properties.
Under Start Menu tab, please make sure that the option “Use the start menu installed of Start screen” is checked on:
For your second issue that Windows store fail to connect to internet, please follow these steps to see what’s going on:
Method 1: Use Microsoft’s Troubleshooter
To address this issue, Microsoft has come up with an instant troubleshooter that automatically detects problematic identities and fixes them on the spot. To download this tool,
visit the address and follow the wizard accordingly:
If running the troubleshooter did not help your case, try working through the following solutions.
Method 2: Disable Proxy Connection
Proxy server acts as an intermediate between your system and the outside world. This can often mess up the internet routes and block certain accesses. To disable this setting, execute this procedure:
Open Internet      Explorer
Click the gears      icon displayed at the top right and choose
Internet options
Navigate to Connections      tab
Open LAN settings
Uncheck Use a proxy      server for your LAN
Try accessing the Store again and see if the issue is mended. If it did not, try other alternatives quoted below.
Method 3: Swap Accounts
It is sometimes observed that switching back and forth between Local and Microsoft Accounts refreshes any recent account changes and cures the illness.
Click Windows icon, and choose PC settings.
Under Users and accounts, click Disconnect Microsoft account or Switch to a local account.
Then, reconnect the Microsoft account to check the issue
If this doesn’t help, continue with the journey.
Method 4: Reset Store Cache
Imitating your web browser, Microsoft Windows Store stores cache locally on your computer to help the apps load faster. Sometimes, this accumulation becomes a problem resulting in efficiency drop-downs and installation failures. To clear this data, reset
the cache through the following steps:
Click Windows Icon, type      wsreset
Click wsreset show on      the search resuts.
Wait for the cache to      clear
Ensure the message The      cache for the Store was cleared. You can now Browse he Store or app
Enter your Store again and see if the problem is eliminated. If not, there is still much more you can try.
Method 5: Disable Firewall Settings
Firewall manages data exchanged between your PC and the network. It is a highly important security tool, but sometimes, it even blocks legal activities hindering your network tasks. Try disabling this program and see if the issue disappears.
Hope these could be helpful.

What happened to the add on that gave access to the UK iplayers from overseas, name began with X

I downloaded Firefox earlier this year because I was advised it contained an 'add on' which enabled me to watch BBC & ITV iplayer sites where I live in Spain. I forget the name of the 'add on' but it began with X.........
It worked very well, I could stream the catchup sites without problems, but today when I logged on the 'add on' was no longer there.
What has happened?
Please can I have the 'add on' back

Unless you used the Firefox Reset feature or removed the extension yourself, it's probably still around. Could you check the following tab to see whether it has been disabled?
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
The disabled extensions are at the bottom on a gray background. If it can't be re-enabled, try updating all your extensions using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > "gear" button > Check for Updates
If it's just not there, you could try a search on the Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

What happened to the zoom bar that lets me increase the size from, say, 100% to 125%? I just installed Firefox, and I no longer find that feature.

A week or so ago I thoughtlessly installed Explorer 10 (Chrome 10?) and immediately began having problems with my google email page and one program I use through email. I got a message that I could not download Explorer 9 to reinstall it, because there "is a newer version on the machine." And I can't find a way to uninstall a browser.
So, I downloaded Firefox and set it as my default browser.
The problem with the email page cleared up instantly; the problem with the program that goes through email got worse (and it still runs fine on a second machine in my house.)
AND---I can't find the zoom button to let me increase the appearance from, say, 100% to 125%, which I very much like to do.

I believe you just reverse pinch screen

What happened to the edit tab that used to display at the top allowing me to copy and paste website addresses sent to me in e-mails?

There used to be a display at the top of the page that had tabs for edit and other items that are no longer there with FF4. Am I missing something? I have checked the drop-down at the upper left but can find no way to copy/cut and paste while in e-mail mode.

You can find the Edit menu and the associated icons in the drop down list if you click the orange Firefox button.
