Why do none of the add ons i have downloaded work at all?

I have downloaded many add ons, most trying to block ads or remember user names and passwords but no ads have been blocked, and no sign in info has been remembered

IMO, too many similar extensions, which may not interact well with each other.
Try using Adblock Plus alone, and maybe the complimentary extensions. <br />https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=Adblock+Plus&appver=26.0&platform=windows
Then explain what you want a password extension to do that the default password manager doesn't do.

  • Why will None of the Add ons Load in 3.6?

    Why will none of my add on's load? I have used "Down Load Helper and a Screen Capture" fo years. Now Fire Fox will not load them.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I Switched to Windows 7

    Tried to do the compatibility check with "Find updates". The command doesn't "light up" The only two that can be used are "options" and "Cancel Install." Have also reinstalled the add-ons with no luck.

  • My add-ons manager and add-ons bar doesn't work at all

    It's not that my add-ons are incompatible with Firefox; they all work fine. It's that, no matter what I seem to do, I can't have a look at them or manage or control them in any way. All that happens when I click on "Add-ons" or "Add-on Bar" is a "New Tab"; it's a completely blank screen with nothing to click on.
    I've really been trying to do all I can, but I have no clue what the problem is. It's not any of the add-ons I have; I used the "Restart with Add-ons Disabled" option and disabled Adblock. It's not outdated Java. Is it something from my computer or a pluggin I still need?
    Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    RightToClick . . . I don't see this in my Add-ons bar, or when I right click a page
    . . . the description for an Add-on is still unhighlightable . . . even if I right-click it with this Add-on . . . should I be able to highlight it? Or does it have some other way to make itself un-copyable, besides javascript?

  • Why did I download FireFox 11, when none of the add-ons work on it?

    I was using Google Chrome to use on Facebook. I had problems with it and multiple users told me the way to go was to switch to Firefox. I downloaded it and while reviewing the get aquainted information, it seems most of the add-ons say" Not available with Firefox11. Why did I bother if their newest product does not support their own add-ons?

    Why start out as a new Firefox user with a '''''Beta''''' version that is still two weeks away from being released?

  • How do I restore the add-ons that I downloaded and installed?

    I thought I wanted to be a Firefox 4 beta tester. I downloaded the program and proceeded to install. During the installation, a message popped up and said these add-ons were not supported. I think it disabled either some or all of the add-ons. It continued with the installation. I don't know if this is related or not but I use Google Chrome while using Facebook to play some game applications. Every time that I have used Chrome today, I get "page unresponsive" message with the option to kill the page or wait for it to become responsive. That message is followed by "the following plug-in is unresponsive": shockwave flash player would you like to stop it? Well, if you click "yes" you can't play, if you click "no" it eventually crashes anyway. I finally uninstalled Firefox 4 beta. When I went back into Firefox 3.6, I noticed that the Zynga toolbar that I downloaded to use with my Facebook game applications is gone. Like I said I don't know if the one problem is related to the other but I wasn't having any issues with Google Chrome until I downloaded and installed Firefox 4 beta. I need to know how to restore to those add-ons that I downloaded and installed prior to downloading the Firefox 4 beta program.

  • I updated Firefox and the extensions and keep getting "restart firefox for changes to take effect." Even after restarting, none of the add-ons actually update and do not appear, for instance, noscript. Please help!

    There are a bunch of add-ons that recently were updated, including noscript, adblock, etc. These add-ons were updated successfully and say in the add-on window they will be installed the next time Firefox restarts. There's also a bar that says "restart firefox now" and even when clicking restart firefox, none of the updates seem to load. I had to manually download the noscript the last time to get it to work but alas with the latest update, again, same problems. i tried disabling other plugins with no impact either. Anyone else having a similar problem and does anyone know how to get this resolved?

    Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.

  • I was automatically updated to Version 11 which is still in Beta but none of the add ons I need are compatible

    I'm VERY frustrated. The new version 11 is still in Beta and I got automatically upgraded without even being asked. As it is 3rd party software I've been sent made for FF hasn't been compatible to V10, so I've lost the ability to use them. How do I shut that feature off?
    Now I feel I got stuck with this beta release yet there's almost no add ons compatible with this release and at this point I need them in order to function properly. How do I go back to V10?

    Hello. If you are having trouble with the Beta version, uninstall all versions completely. Then go to Mozilla Firefox and install the regular version as if it were new.
    When I try a Beta version, I open a new folder (Mozilla Firefox Beta) and install the Beta version there.
    I still like the regular version of Firefox. I don't see anything new on this Beta version that I like, and it isn't compatible to my favorite theme or add-ons.
    Good luck. :)

  • Firefox keeps opening the Add-ons page

    Whenever I launch Firefox or open a new tab, the add-ons page opens. This has been happening since I updated to Firefox 4 a few days ago. I've tried disabling all the add-ons I have but it makes no difference. I've also turned off updates for add-ons, that didn't help either.
    I'm running Windows XP.
    Thanks.

    It's possible that the page is included in the home page setting.
    Have a look at the illustration here and compare it with your own configuration:

  • Newly installed Thunderbird. When browsing the add ons listing it completely crashes. No add ons installed yet. No crash report comes up.

    In the Add-ons Manager I click on 'see all' and it crashes thunderbird. Completely shuts it down to desktop. No crash report, just blink and its gone. No add-ons installed yet.

    Those "vanishing acts" are one of the hardest things to work out.
    Can you open this page when you click.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
    and this
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
    both of those are the link that opens in Thunderbird when you click show all, one without the detected locale.
    Assuming you have had your operating system installed for some time (XP is old) please run the disk cleanup tool on the start menu in Accessories\system tools. as the issue may be related to an over full temp folder or other disk issue.

  • Why are my installed extentions on FF 5.01 suddenly not showing up in the add-ons window tab (to change preferences), even though the extentions (like Google toolbar and Awesome Screenshot) are visible on the FF interface?

    My Google toolbar was working fine earlier this morning. A few hours later, the search window stopped opening new tabs. I did some snooping and discovered that none of my extension add-ons were showing up in the add-ons tab. However, the appearance and plug-ins are still listed. When I click on the Extensions tab there is just a small box that says "You don't have any add-ons of this type installed." However, my Google toolbar, Add Blocker, and Awesome Screenshot etc. is still visible in the FF interface. When I try to uninstall the Google toolbar using the options button on the toolbar itself, nothing happens. What's up?

    Same solution as dplavin. Thanks!
    Afterwords there were some changes in Add-ons that were enabled/disabled that then had to be straightened out.
    I disabled Test Pilot which was in the process of testing thinking that it might have had something to do with the problem. I have not updated to the latest version of 5.0 because one favorite Add-on [Firegestures] is supposed to be incompatible.

  • The Add-Ons Manager is supposed to auto update your add-ons but it is not detecting the latest version of Adobe flash player. Why is it not detecting the update?

    I have Adobe flash player version 10.2.152.32 installed and Adobe has released version 10.2.3.1 so why is the add-ons manager not detecting that an update is available?

    Adobe Flash is not an add-on, it's a plug-in and you have to use the Plug-in Check to check for updates:

  • I'm using firefox version 6 and for the last three days the add-ons manager page won't load. my question is why won't the add-ons page load? is the server down on your end?

  • Why does the Add-ons manager take an excessive time to load and can I view my add-ons without going to the add-ons manager?

    When I start my browser up my everything that I have been working on comes up without any problem and I can open a new tab to go to another site without a problem, but when I go to the Add-ons Manager it can take over 3 minutes to load and that's if I don't stop it. My other question is can I view my add-ons, plugins, etc without having to open the Add-ons Manager?

  • When I update to the latest version I cannot access the add-ons page or request help because neither page will load. My Weather channel add-on was NOT piced up when updating to the latest version. Why problems with improved latest version?

    I have twice downloaded the latest version in the last month. Each time I encountered the same problems. the Weather Channel add-on I have did NOT appear in the latest version. When I tried to access the Add-Ons page under the Tools header it would not load. When I tried to contact Mozilla from the Help header it would not load
    When I open a web page from Bookmarks it is painfully slow to load.
    This is NOT an improved version. I have been using Firefox for years without problems; I prefer it to Internet Explorer. However the latest 'improved' version may change my mind.

    The problem is that the Add-ons Manager tab when opened the first time, is on "Get Add-ons" section and that must be downloaded from the Add-ons server which might be overburdened.
