Why has the big green box - 'This site is safe' disappeared since a firefox restart to fix slowness?

Since doing a restart the green box 'this site is safe' isn't showing at the side of results when searching topics in google? It used to before I did it. Can't explain it in computer language!

I assume that you mean that you have reset Firefox and created a new profile.
A new profile doesn't have the extensions from the previous profile, but extensions that are installed globally can still be activated in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions".
Note that we see a lot of reports that extensions created by security software cause issues in Firefox, so be cautious in case problem return.
What problems did you have previously that you reset Firefox?<br />
Only slowness?

  • What happened to the tabs that said "this site is safe" and "notify us" when I upgraded to Firefox 5.0?

    When I upgraded to Firefox 5.0 a couple days ago, the toolbar that included the sunburst security symbol followed by "this site is safe" and "notify us" disappeared. I also had cut, copy, past and print icons on that toolbar, and they also disappeared. The same thing happened after the previous upgrade, but I discovered the lost toolbar hidden behind the "Home - Welcome to Centurylink" tab just under the menu toolbar. All I had to do to get it back was click on the down arrow after the word "Centurylink" (Centurylink is my Internet provider) . After the last upgrade that down arrow is no longer there.
    My computer is an Ultra Horizon X433, Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5GHZ 4M 1333 processor. OS is Windows XP Pro

    It sounds as though one of your add-on toolbars was not labeled as compatible with Firefox 5. You can check for disabled add-ons here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
    Try the Extensions category, the lower list of grayed out items.
    If Firefox disabled some add-ons (especially extensions), it likely is because they include a list of compatible Firefox versions and haven't yet been updated for Firefox 5. If they worked on Firefox 4, there is a very good chance they will work on Firefox 5.
    You can force Firefox to ''ignore'' add-on version restrictions by (what else) installing an add-on. Then you can test whether the add-ons important to you actually work in Firefox 5.

  • Why has the big battery indicator disappeared?

    My iPod Touch (IOS 6.1.3) no longer shows the big battery indicator when the iPod is turned on or plugged in for a recharge.  The battery seems to charge ok according to the tiny battery indicator but the big indicator has disappeared for good.  Also, when plugged in, the tiny indicator doesn't show charging is taking place.
    In addition, the device no longer shows up in iTunes and doesn;t sync.  I suspected a defective cable but chraging does seem to work.  Have tried recycling power to no efect.

    Start with Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Firefox has prented you from accesing this site. Allow. Why is this coming up

    When changing a page very often a message comes up on the top left of my screen. "Firefox has prevented you from accessing this site"and on the right of the screen it says Allow. When I click on the "Allow"it allows me access. It happens very often even to trusted sites

    See: Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

  • How do I enable the big green battery and the plug icon? (R61 - Win7 64)

    I know that this subject is pretty old, but maybe somebody will answer.
    I have a reverse problem from:
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T61-and-prior-T-series-ThinkPad/How-do-I-remove-the-big-green-battery-an...
    I do not have this green battery and the plugin icon, instead I have gray battery like this:
    Strange thing is that it is resistant to any changes in Power Manager Advanced Options - whatever I check: hide, show, small icon, big icon - it stays as it is.
    I use Win7 64bit.
    Any ideas?

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes, that previous page button is wonderful, isn't it LOL. It has gotten me many times. Some text editors are merciful and will preserve your work if you immediately hit the back button. The Lenovo Forum editor does not but it does autosave your draft ever so often
    Concerning Power Manager: First, let's make sure of the obvious. Have you tried removing and re-installing your battery and making sure it is making good contact?
    Assuming your battery is not the problem,
    go ahead and uninstall "Hotkeys."
    Hotkeys version 3.81.0100 currently includes 5 separate components which you will see in your list of programs:
     - On Screen Display
     - Thinkpad Full Screen Magnifier
     - Lenovo System Interface Driver
     - Lenovo Auto Scroll Utility
     - Lenovo Patch Utility
    Use Control Panel and make sure to un-install all of these. (You may never have installed Hotkeys. If so, skip this step Or, if you have installed a previous version which does not include all of these components, just un-install any of these you find).
    Next, use Control Panel to un-install "Power Manager," and "Lenovo Power Management Driver." Yes, "Power Manager" is different from "Lenovo Power Management Driver." (It sounds like like you may never have installed "Lenovo Power Management Driver" so just skip that one if you don't see it in your list of programs.)
    Tip: Older versions of "Power Manager" may be called "Thinkpad Power Manager" or "Lenovo Power Manager." We're now up to version 6.36.
    Reboot as prompted during the un-installation process.
    Now, go to the Lenovo Drivers and Software page here and enter your type/model number.
    Install the following software in this order:
    (1) First, install "Lenovo Power Management Driver" from the Power Management section.
    (2) Next, install "Hotkey Features Integration" from the Software and Utility section.
    (3) Finally, install "Power Manager" itself. (Version 6.36 you see there is the latest version).
    Reboot as instructed during the installation process.
    As for the Lenovo "anti-shock feature,"  install "ThinkVantage Active Protection System" from the Thinkvantage Technology section
    That should do it. Let us know how you do.

    I am using the iPad 3 64 and am an avid photographer . I have been using iPhoto as my editor when I download my pic to my iPad . I have upgraded to IOS 6.  Please tell me why has the delete option has been removed iPhoto?

    That was the first thing I check, my X no longer exist, the app still works fine and does everything it did in the past, the the x (delete) option is no longer there.  I have deleted and redownloaded the app and did a complete reset, X still not there as an option.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem? 

  • I can't open i tunes, I've followed the instructions given on this site but it still won't open

    I can't open I tunes, I've folowed the instructions given on this site but it still won't open. Any alternative suggestions?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Storeand turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

    despite the workaround, it doesn't fix the real problem. It shouldn't be a huge deal for adobe to add support for multiple svn versions. Dreamweaver is the first tool i've used that works with svn that doesn't support several types of svn meta data. If they're going to claim that Dreamweaver supports svn is should actually support svn, the current version, not a version several years old. This should have been among the first patches released, or at least after snow leopard came out (and packaged with it the current version of svn).
    does anyone know if the code that handles meta data formatting is something that is human readable, or where it might be, or is it in compiled code.
    i signed up for the forums, for the sole purpose of being able to vent about this very frustrating and disappointing situation.

    If you've bought a film from iTunes then you can only copy it to a DVD or CD for backup purposes, you won't be able to watch it on a stand-alone DVD player.

  • Why has the Tecra M11-11M only got the 32-bit version of Windows 7?

    Why has the Tecra M11-11M only got the 32-bit version of windows 7 and not the 64-bit?
    Surely the i7 and 4gb can cope with the demands and the 64-bit version would allow more efficient use of the computing power.
    Many thanks,

    Good question but Im afraid only Toshiba marketing division has right answer to your question.
    I just presume they create own decision based on market research.
    You can try to install own 64bit version if the drivers, tools and utilities are available.
