Where is the status bar toggle in FF8

In earlier versions of FF a "status bar" could be toggled from the "view" menu. The option is no longer there in FF8

Firefox 4 + versions no longer have the Status bar.<br />
The functionality of the Status bar has been replaced by the Add-ons bar that extensions can use.

You can use this extension to get the Status Bar back:

  • Where is the status bar in ver4? i want to see the padlock symbol when online shopping

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/826629''
    after installing the laterst firefox version 4, i was trying to find where to show the status bar usually at the bottom of the browser. can't seem to find in on any of menu settings.
    this is the spot where users can see the padlock(security) symbol to know the site is secure, esp when online shopping or doing online banking

    The Statusbar is gone and the "lock" with it. Security information about a web page is shown by the Site Identity Button.<br />

    You can add a padlock to the location bar with the Padlock add-on- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon

  • IPhone 6: Where's the status bar in landscape mode?

    I just got the iPhone 6 (I believe iOS 8.1) and my only problem is that it removes the status bar in when in landscape mode. I find it extremely annoying that I can no longer see the time, monitor my battery life, check whether if I'm even receiving a signal, etc. when I'm using apps such as Safari or Notes in landscape mode. Is there any way to get the status bar back like in previous software versions? So far, I hate having to switch to portrait mode, using the pull down menu, or pressing the home button just to see it...

    Same here - I returned my original, same problem on the second one, and same problem on my son's phone. I called Apple tech months ago, got to a senior supervisor who assured me he'd get back to me, but never did.

  • Where is the Status Bar in FF 7.0.1?

    I have just updated to FF 7.0.1 from FF 3.6.16. I am unable to find the status bar in the new version, to know the progress of my web page downloads. How do I get the FF 3.6.16 Status Bar like function in this new version?

    The Status Bar was removed in an earlier version of Firefox and replaced with the Add-on Bar.

    You can regain some Status Bar functions by installing the Status-4-Evar extension.

    *#*Status text (this is the URL information you want)

  • Where did the status bar go?

    Might have to start telling people to use internet explorer again, as neither of my preferred browsers have a consistand user interface.

    Hello,
    I think you are referring to the add-on bar, which was removed in version 29. Here are a few suggestions for restoring the old design. We hope you’ll find one that works for you:
    *Use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] to bring back the old design. Learn more here: [[How to make the new Firefox look like the old Firefox]]
    *Use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/the-addon-bar/ Add-on Bar Restored] to bring back the add-on bar. Learn more here: [[What happened to the Add-on Bar?]]
    Firefox is a work in progress and your feedback is very important to us. Our support community is run by volunteers who work hard to help all Firefox users, but we can’t make changes to the design ourselves. Please help us improve Firefox by leaving feedback where the designers and engineers can see it: https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback.

  • In 1 applications, e.g. Norton Virus Scan, and Macware DiskToolsPro, the status bar shows 100% but task is still running. Where it says x of y items complete, x is y. This also happens in Windows 7 with Bootcamp. Please explain.

    In >1 applications, e.g. Norton Virus Scan, and Macware DiskToolsPro, the status bar sometimes shows 100% complete but task is still running. Under the status bar, where it says something like "x of y items complete," x is greater than y. This also happens in Windows 7 with Bootcamp. Why does this happen?

  • Where is the blocked pop-up indicator now that the status bar is gone?

    In Firefox 3, we had this:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Pop-up%20blocker?s=pop-ups&as=s
    When blocking a pop-up, Firefox displays an information bar, as well as an icon Popup-blocked-en-win.png in the status bar.
    Firefox 4 BETA, the status bar is gone. How do I easily add a blocked pop-up to the exclusion list so it will open in the future?

    Thanks for your reply to this question. I believe that "show the blocked pop-up" ''was'' an option in FireFox's built-in popup blocker. As the OP mentioned, it is listed parenthetically on the [[Pop-Up Blocker Help Page|Pop-Up Blocker Help Page]]. Also, I don't run much in the way of add-ons and extensions, and no extensions were disabled when I updated this morning, but nonetheless the option seems to have disappeared. Since this problem doesn't have many "me toos," maybe it only happens under specific circumstances?

    Your code is absolutely unreadable - even if someone was willing to
    help, it's simply impossible. I do give you a few tips, though: If you
    understand your code (i.e. if it really is YOUR code), you should be
    able to realize that your minimum and maximum never get set (thus they
    are both 0) and your exam 3 is set with the wrong value. SEE where
    those should get set and figure out why they're not. Chances are you
    are doing something to them that makes one 'if' fail or you just
    erroneously assign a wrong variable!

  • [SOLVED]Gnome: No network icon in the status bar

    So fresh install and no networking icon in the status bar.
    I also opened the network connections program and it didnt show any connections. I am using eth0 to write this.
    This suggests to me that a daemon hasnt been started (but doesnt necessarily explain no icon in status bar)
    here is the daemon section of my rc.conf
    DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng network netfs crond networkmanager dbus gdm)
    i added network manager as a previous attempt (on advise of someone elsewhere on the internet(cannot remember where lol))
    Thanks.. I have nearly got my system how I want it (minus software i havent installed yet)
    Sorry if i have created a duplicate thread

    Thanks to both of you.
    I had already noticed the redundancy of network which was added in the install however hadnt considered the ordering
    wonder wrote:Did you really read the wiki?
    This is pretty much all i have seen people saying at the end of their posts on here. I agree with the point you have made, however i have been on the wiki all day, conisdering this is a newbie forum it is to be presumed that it is a pretty new installation. Therefore the user does not have time to read the entire wiki. As i said i have been on the wiki all day and used it countless times and have found it invaluable, so im only posting here when i am unable to find answers there.
    That aside this is a wonderfully helpful community so HI

  • Progress indicator in the status bar

    Bridge often does a number of time-consuming activities where it would be useful as a user to know how far along it is, and how far it has to go. Since most of these are done in the background and don't interfere with the user doing more things, a progress meter would be inappropriate. However, the status bar is good place for such info. Currently, the status bar says what it's doing--just not how far along it has to go. Clearly, some operations cannot be known ahead of time, but of those that are known, it'd be great to know where it is in its task.
    dan

    Thanks for you feedback. You wish has been granted (a "nn jobs pending" display indicate the number of thumbnails remaing to be thumbnail or metadata to be extracted, etc.. There are also better and more accurate progress dialogs). Check out the free beta of Bridge CS3 (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/photoshopcs3/)

  • Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar?

    Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar, because all updates past FF28 don't have the Status Bar which is where most of my favorite Addons are located (such as eQuake Alert and ForecastFox. This is really annoying. I've had to turn off auto update because of this and stay with FF28. I'm sure one day FF28 will become obsolete and then I won't be able to use my Addons.

    '''''"Any chance you are bringing back the Status Bar?"'''''
    Little to no chance of that happening. As you are well aware, there is one or more extensions that restore the Add-on Bar to Firefox 29 + versions.

  • Can I make the fonts bigger in the status bar and the notification pop ups?

    I'm really struggling to read some of the pop ups. And the status bar is almost impossible.  Why is the font smaller on an iPad then an iPhone? I can't read the tabs either. The zoom feature helps but come on already.  I've made the fonts bolder but they are just too small. I'm 54 and have worn glasses since I was 6 and there are several areas on this device that are nearly impossible to read. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I've done computer support for many years. Recently moved to a retirement community where the residents have computers of all varieties, and much less trouble with macs than with PCs BUT Safari is terrible for older people with its tiny print, black on dark gray.  Latest versions of Chrome seem to crash a lot, so I'd like to encourage them to use Safari, but the tiny print on tabs is a stumbling block.  Is there any extension or plug-in that will help with THAT? I know how to increase font size on web sites, that's not the problem. It is the specific Safari tabs that are the problem.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Maybe a long shot, but WD is not known for the quality of some of their enclosures, although I do like the drives themselves. It may be worth mounting this drive in a different enclosure, something like one of OWC's FireWire enclosures with the highly reliable Oxford chip sets. I wouldn't be inclined to trust a WD enclosure, especially if it already seemed to be acting in a flakey manner.
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEP924FW8E2O/
    I have 3 of these and I really like them.
    From what I understand, if the drive spins up, it is often possible to recover data from it. To be absolutely certain to destroy the data, you just about have to take a hammer to the disk. Hopefully, there will be a way to get your data back.
    Good luck!
