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.

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 The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the Site Identity Button on the left end of the location (address) bar.

This has actually existed since Firefox 3.0
If you still want a padlock icon also then

  • The lock symbol does not appear when I open a secure page in firefox 4.0. Has this been removed?

    Previously, using firefox 3.6.1, when I opened a secure or encrypted page, the lock icon appeared on that page.
    When I upgraded to firefox 4.0, the lock icon is no longer appearing when I open a secure page. Please confirm whether this has been removed or in the alternative whether there is a way to determine that the secure or encrypted page is indeed secure to use.

    In Firefox 4 you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />

  • 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 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.

    If by "posted to you" you mean shipped, yes. Usually UPS or FedEx is used by Apple. Note that you may need to access the Online Store that's for your country. If you are not in the US then you cannot purchase it for shipment outside of the US. You can use this link to find the store that serves your country: Change Country. You will find it at the bottom of the Online Store page.

    Thank you. 
    Would there be any particular reason why my iPad will not join my wireless internet at home but my iPhone and Macbook are joined?  I thought that sign was hindering the connect but that is completely unrelated.

  • The lock symbol won't go away and I can't do anything!

    So my IPod went crazy today. At the gym I got this weird "reboot" message and then it went black. I got home and I plugged it in to my USB port in my computer, downloaded the newest ITunes software for the update and the thing still says that it's locked when it is not and it won't let me push any buttons. The lock button is not on, I've made sure of that
    I am doing the factory restore now and seeing if that makes it work. If not, what do I do?
    IPod: color display   Windows ME

  • Can we turn off the icon on the lock screen that opens and displays all the photos on your ipad

    I finally noticed the little icon on the lock screen that you can puch and it immediately opens a slide shoew of all the phoes in your library.   I think this is a bit of a security issue -- I dont' wan people being able to look at my pictures wtithout authorizatino from me.   This supasses my permission and lets anyone look at them while the IPAD is still "locked"
    Cn w turn off/disable this icon selection somehow?   I've notobeeen abe to find anything  yet.
    Help!

    There is no security issue. If your iPad is protected by a passcode (which it should be if you don't want anyone to be able to look at stuff) you can turn the slideshow icon off.

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • Since I upgraded Firefox the gold security lock symbol that shows up for internet banking, etc. has disappeared. How do I get it back. I'm nervous not seeing it there.

    the bank site does have "https//:" on it, but no security lock shows in the lower right hand corner. It always was there before.

    The Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:
