WHEN will Firefox 5.0 be compatible w/ Skype plugin/extention again?

Skype compatibility was lost after updating to Firefox 5.0. When may I expect to have use of this all important tool?
Firefox 4 is not supported and 3.6.18 is too old to drive the Catsone ATS properly!

There is new information from Google since a month ago, they took there sweet time to say they would no longer support their toolbar. Supporting their extension only on older versions of Firefox is not really support, and that will obvious run out. Google dropped support because they said the functionality was already in Firefox (they are including extensions in that assessment).
Google Chrome does not have the Google Toolbar and never did. Google kind of leads the pack on not much in the way of toolbars for the browser itself. Really glad that Firefox is customizable and that we can still have basic functional toolbars. I personally never install any third party toolbars.
'''The Google Toolbar is no longer supported by Google in Firefox 5 and up''', you may be able to get what you want from it for a limited time, the directions to install the Google Toolbar were posted before Google actually announced dropping support.

*the-edmeister posted a brief evaluation of the situation<br>https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841736
In any case you can find several alternative solutions, and you can start working on them now, see

If this solves your problem then mark as solved, if there is an aspect that is not covered directly or through searching extensions on that page, or other searching that you can try, please indicate what is not covered and describe what it does and we will try to help you with a Firefox solution. Don't expect to see anything that is an exact replacement of a Google Toolbar feature. Likewise if you have additional solutions not covered others would likely want to hear about them.

  • When will firefox 4.01 be compatible with McAfee Site Advisor?

    I get pop-ups offering the latest version of Firefox (4.01) but when I go to install it, it warns me that my McAfee Site Advisor will not work with this new version. Can you tell me when you expect the new version of Firefox to be able to support use of McAfee Site Advisor??? Thank you for your time.

    Check with McAffe for an updated version of the Site Advisor extension.

  • When will Firefox and Roboform become compatible.

    I keep seeing that my current version of Firefox will only be supported for a while longer and I also see that Roboform is not supported by the newer version of Firefox. This is a critical issue for me as I have dozens and dozens of login signatures. Why won't Firefox correct itself? Does anyone have a suggestion for correcting this and why is Firefox the only problem web browser with regard to Roboform?

    Ask Roboform, it's not the role of Mozilla to fix third party application crashing Firefox. In addition, 3.6 will be EOL in April 2012, so the solution is to update to latest Firefox and Roboform versions.

  • When will firefox be coming out with the complete 5.0 version that is compatible with McAfee site advisor? As I understand it is beta now.

    McAfee told me the current 5.0 version is a beta version, which is why Site advisor will not work with it. They also told me they are not updating site advisor anytime soon. So when will Firefox be updated to a complete and compatible version?

    Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
    Here's the process to roll back:
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings 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.)
    Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
    Close Firefox 5.
    You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (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.

    hello jmoretti, mozilla is not responsible for the compatibility of third-party addons - so please contact garmins's support to find out if/when there's an update available for their product... though their website states that there's "No web browser required" for this product, so the stand-alone product will likely continue to work anyway (just the integration into firefox will be disabled).

    please also [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] available (firefox 16.0.2 at the moment) in order to stay safe on the web.

  • When will Firefox increase their HTML5 support?

    Like, since Firefox 11 the HTML5 support hasn't gone up a bit. Like it supports 345 points. As when even Opera and Safari bulldozed Firefox with a 376 and 385 pointer. Then Chrome FLATTENED Firefox, with a 437 points. And even Internet Explorer is chasing Firefox like a cat and a mouse, with 319 points and counting. Like WHEN, will Firefox actually put some more effort into building their HTML5 support?

    There is always work going on on increasing our support of the HTML5 standard. For example, from Firefox 14.0.1 to Firefox 17 (still in development, the HTML5Test has gone from 345 to 383. The HTML5 standard is still evolving, and work is always being done. However, this isn't the best place to discuss this. [https://developer.mozilla.org/ https://developer.mozilla.org/] is the developer portal for Firefox and covers all the HTML5 work going on.

  • When will OS X Lion be compatible with Avid's Pro Tools 9, or any Pro Tools for that matter?

    When will OS X Lion be compatible with Avid's Pro Tools 9, or any Pro Tools for that matter?

    There's less money to be made from compatibility than there is from "forced upgrades."  Why would AVID be concerned with their older product working with the new OS when they can release another version for people to pay $250+ for?  Free bug-fix download vs. latest software upgrade?  You've got two companies with virtual monopolies on the pro audio market.  It's a win-win for them.
    So what does that say to me about the handful that do not?  The incompatibility is a marketing decision, not a shortcoming.
    Am I close?

  • When will firefox be available for ipad mini

    when will firefox be available for ipad mini

    Apple requires all web browsers in ios to use it's web browser framework.  Apple has done most of the work for writing a web browser app.  That is why you see so many web browsers in ios.  Firefox doesn't use this framework on the Mac.  It would have to toss much of the firefox code and replace it with Apple's framework.
    If you need a web browser with more features, try iCab.

  • When will firefox be available for Sony ericsson Experia x10i

    Hi, I have a Sony ericsson Experia x10i smartphone. I cannot instal firefox a a browser because it has toolittle RAM.
    When will Firefox issue a browser for this phone?

    I dont know about the plans Mozilla are making for that but i can surely tell you that you can try fixing your RAM issue, and somehow the Android app of Firefox will be able to run. It actually should run, unless you have all sorts of stuff already running on the phone. Good Luck!

  • When will Firefox 7 support websockets (like Safari and Chrome)?

    A test query to websockets.org echo test gets the result: "...the browser doesn't have native support for WebSocket". The same test using Safari or Chrome on a Mac results in: "This browser supports WebSocket". Same problem whether on OS X 10.6 or 10.7. When will Firefox 7 catch up to Safari and Chrome?

    In Firefox you need to use MozWebSocket.

  • When will Leopard and CS3 be compatible?

    The Adobe Creative Suite forum for Macintosh has this question posted - as you might imagine, it's very close to the top of that forum's list of threads.
    In the thread "When will Leopard and CS3 be compatible?" the Adobe Tech Rep Dov Isaacs, Principal Scientist, Publishing Technologies & Services Group, Adobe Systems Inc., says that the only solution is to wait for Apple to fix Leopard possibly via 10.5.3 or, wait until 10.6. He recommends that Tiger users who need CS3 not upgrade to Leopard until Apple makes their new operating system compatible with CS3. He says that there are no work-around's now or planned by Adobe.
    So when will Apple address this - anyone know?

    That link is out of date (although it is the most current "official" info on Adobe's web site.)
    In the discussion referred to by the OP, an Adobe rep (cited above) says that the last update to Acrobat fixed its main issues (that the leopardsupport.pdf says is needed). So, according to the PDF, all should now be well and good.
    He also says in other posts, more or less, that 1) CS3 doesn't work properly under Leopard; 2) It's Apple's fault for breaking apps and releasing a "buggy" OS; 3) it may be fixed in 10.5.3 but don't hold your breath, they hope it's fixed in 10.6!
    I use CS3...Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Acrobat...and haven't had any issues. I don't depend on them to make a living, though.
    Reading the thread on the Adobe web site, I get the feeling that there is quite a bit of dissatisfaction with the OS X version of CS3 vis-a-vis Leopard, and at least one very senior Adobe guy is very publicly trashing Apple for it.
    And people wonder why Apple doesn't comment for the record on pending fixes/releases/etc...

  • When will Firefox version 27.1 be compatible with aol toolbar used with my iMac OS version 10.7.5? I cannot install version Firefox 27.1 until fix is in place

    I have an iMac desktop Operating System version 10.7.5.
    Current Firefox Version 26 allows me to use AOL toolbar.
    When I went to download / install updated Firefox version 27.1, message that appeared
    said this version was incompatible with AOL toolbar.
    Installation could only be complete if I disabled AOL toolbar which is NOT an option.
    Please advise when this Firefox version 27.1 incompability issue will be fixed.
    Thanks in advance.

    The message likely said it was the toolbar that was not compatible with Firefox 27.0.1. It is up to the Extension authors to make their Extension compatible with Firefox not the other way.
    Unless the Extension is ties with a application with a binary like with Antivirus toolbars, the majority of Extensions that have been compatible since say Firefox 10.0 should still work for example.
    Have you checked for updates for this Aol toolbar extension?

  • Hi i was wondering, my iphone(iOS 7.0.3) cant sync or cannot be read on my itunes(11.1.3.8) on my windows 8.1. So i was wondering if anyone knew when will windows and itunes be compatible officially? or is there another way to fix without waiting?

    Hi anyone can help? Cause i cannot sync my iphone(iOS 7.03) on my itunes(11.1.3.8) on windows 8.1? I heard that it is because windows 8.1 and itunes 11.1 " ain't compatible. So i was wondering if anyone knew when will they be compatible or is there another method without me doing much"harm" to my itunes or windows? Please your help is most wanted!!!

    I have 8.1 and iTunes and its working. My cloud doesn't so I had to remove the 'sync contacts and calendar to the cloud' and to back to the old say, but I just synced my iPad and iPos (both running 7.0.3) last night and it worked.
    There are features with 8.1 that may be messing things up. For example there's a setting when you upgrade to 8.1 where you can turn off the automatic install of drivers. With devices, every time the iOS and iTunes updates there is a new driver to make your device visible on a computer. If you turn off that auto install then you may have blocked your computer from getting that driver.
    In addition, with iOS7 there came the 'do you trust this computer' which is a choice you have to make on your device. If you tell your device no, then it may have issues connecting to your computer.

  • When will Firefox work with Skype. I had to download an older version for it to work.

    I downloaded Firefox 4 but it stated it was not compatible with Skype. I tried Skype and could not get a ring, so I downloaded the version I had previously, 3.6.16. Will Firefox 4 be compatible with Skype in the future?

    I not sure what you are referring to here. Are you referring to the Skype Firefox Add-on or the Skype Application?
