Why is that New Toolbar Created while costomizing crashes as soon as Firefox is closed?

I am using Firefox for many years now and I simply love it.The fact
that this is my first communication to you shows that I had absolutely no
problems wit Firefox, until now that is!
The problem is Add-on Buttons along with the Toolbar keep disappearing in
Firefox18. I arrange all the Add-on Buttons on a Toolbar created for this specific purpose(Options - Toolbar - Layout - Add New Toolbar). The trouble started when I upgraded from Firefox 3.6 to Firefox 4 and then continuing even after 18th iteration of Firefox . All the Add-on Buttons along with the Toolbar started disappearing. I checked if any of the add-on is causing this problem but found nothing.But the Add-on Buttons work fine when arranged on the Status Bar (Now the so called Add-on Bar) which is very inconvenient and clumsy.
Later I found out that this particular problem exists in all the Browsers
based on Firefox\'s latest version(Pale Moon,Cometbird,Wyzo,Epic etc).
That means something is causing this toolbar to disappear in the latest
versions of Firefox(i.e.,Firefox 4,5... and now Firefox 18). So please help me to rectify this problem.I am impressed by the improvements made in the latest versions of Firefox and you will
agree with me that the strength of Firefox is that it is highly customizable.But due to this problem Firefox has become useless for me. It is too much to that even after Firefox 18 the problem is still there
I am fed up and curse why at Mozilla started this 'improvement drive. I loved Firefox 3 ! Firefox18 is useless for me.

Your last post was [/questions/927399] and the advice is much the same as then. Start a new profile and add the add-ons slowly maybe one at a time.
The status bar was phased out a long while ago

  • Why does every new download create new problems-is every user so advanced to be able to play tech-techs do not seem to get most either,they just keep playing wi

    Every time something gets downloaded I loose something else or it makes unwanted changes with other things that were working fine but now are not. I am just a regular user with a PC and I am seeing techs do not know much about how to fix stuff either, they just keep playing with buttons until something happens hopefully for the better. It took me 2 days and several hours to figure out how to set up the Firefox download and now it suddenly recreated itself to a whole new look and I have to start all over again to fix it. Firefox works so much faster than my Internet Explorer but the Explorer is more user friendly and so much more simple to use. In the middle of all this my Windows Media Player did some kind of upgrade and now my Library looks like an Alien rewrote it to suit themselves. Push the wrong button and bye bye all my favorite stuff or it is rearranged and all separated out, lots of my stuff is mp3 seminars, not music and those are not even recognizable by the new downloads. Why is every new download more INVASIVE than the last. How about some basic standards & share? And look at what is in the box just below this one!!! What does that even mean? And No I do not want you to AUTOMATICALLY add anything/what and then open this & click on Allow /Install???? What will that interfere with? You need ordinary people users to be working with you to see if they can figure out what you are talking about? I used to love using my computer, too many changes one one top of the other is getting very annoying and expensive to fix. Keep it SIMPLE. Not everyone is a computer Nerd. And PS: How about some remote help or maybe that is a remote chance of help? And maybe I just wasted another 20mins writing this and only a computer will read it.......HELLO....IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?

    Thank you for proving my point brilliantly. For the moment, I shall keep my rantings and the difficulties to myself because you obviously can not handle a bit of user's frustration. Too bad really, that you can not see it as an opportunity to make improvements and be a Hero in the process. I did say that Firefox works much faster, why did you not take that personally as well? ............. Another day, Slick ! ...........

  • When accessing favorites imported from IE8, duplicate links appear for those bookmarks on Google new tab page, while things I have bookmarked in Firefox appear normally, as a single link.

    For several months now, I have had this issue. I'm not sure if this is an issue with Google Toolbar or Firefox, but I have uninstalled and re-installed the toolbar several times, and the same thing keeps happening when I access anything Imported from IE8. Anything I originally bookmark in Firefox appears as a single link on the Google new tab page, while my favorites from IE8 appears twice. Everything appears as normal in the Firefox Bookmarks menu. This doesn't seem to affect functionality in any way, but it is rather irritating at times. Is it possible it could be a bug in IE8? I'm curious to see if anyone knows of a solution to this issue. Any help or input is greatly appreciated. Has anyone else had this happen? I have the latest versions of Google Toolbar and Firefox, so far as I'm aware. Thanks, once again, for your time and input.

    Thanks to jscher! With some help from AVG my AVG & Google browser panels now work OK. But I've taken the advice & disabled several extensions including the Disconnect. The browsers are still OK after re-launching them so I keep fingers crossed.
    My original problem was that I had suddenly found a small popup window appearing, over the browser window, that I couldn't get rid of. It contained an advisory to the effect that Windows couldn't find the file popuptransparent[dot]xul. I tried searching for that to see what it was and in the course of doing that I seem to have executed it. Then was when the trouble started.
    I have 3 instances of that file in my computer and would dearly like to get rid of them if they are of no use to me. Any advice there?

  • When Photoshop CS6 is invoked from PSE 11 Organizer why is a new file created with _edited-1 appende

    I just converted a large PSE 10 catalog to work with a downloaded trial version of PSE 11.  When I brought up the Organizer and clicked on the Editor button I selected Photoshop CS 6.  At that point the Organizer created an image stack with a new file on the top of the stack that had a file name that was the original file name with "_edited-1" appended to the end of it.  Is there any way to avoid this?  For me it is going to create a tedious step to delete the original file and rename the new file after editing.  For probably 98% of my editing I will use only the Adobe Camera Raw editor on my imported raw files (Nikon's .nef).  ACR puts the editing data in a sidecar .xmp file so there's no need to protect the original file from be mistakenly replaced by an edited version.

    That's not a new behaviour : in old versions choosing the external editor did create a copy in a version set.
    I don't have CS6, so I can't be specific, but I wonder why you should open CS6 if most of your images can be edited in ACR. For them, you only need to click 'Done' and that saves the edits in the xmp sidecar file. I guess most of the remaining files could be processed in the PSE11 editor and saved in any image format (jpeg, tiff, psd...). Only a minority would have to be processed in CS6***, and in that case, creating a new copy in a version set seems quite reasonable.
    Edit:
    *** in CS6 or the full ACR version of CS6. In my case, it's very rare that I need the other tabs in ACR.

  • Why multiple  log files are created while using transaction in berkeley db

    we are using berkeleydb java edition db base api, we have already read/write CDRFile of 9 lack rows with transaction and
    without transaction implementing secondary database concept the issues we are getting are as follows:-
    with transaction----------size of database environment 1.63gb which is due to no. of log files created each of 10 mb.
    without transaction-------size of database environment 588mb and here only one log file is created which is of 10mb. so we want to know how REASON CONCRETE CONCLUSION ..
    how log files are created and what is meant of using transaction and not using transaction in db environment and what are this db files db.001,db.002,_db.003,_db.004,__db.005 and log files like log.0000000001.....plz reply soon

    we are using berkeleydb java edition db base api, If you are seeing __db.NNN files in your environment root directory, these are environment's shared region files. And since you see these you are using Berkeley DB Core (with the Java/JNI Base API), not Berkeley DB Java Edition.
    with transaction ...
    without transaction ...First of all, do you need transactions or not? Review the documentation section called "Why transactions?" in the Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide.
    without transaction-------size of database environment 588mb and here only one log file is created which is of 10mb.There should be no logs created when transactions are not used. That single log file has likely remained there from the previous transactional run.
    how log files are created and what is meant of using transaction and not using transaction in db environment and what are this db files db.001,db.002,_db.003,_db.004,__db.005 and log files like log.0000000001Have you reviewed the basic documentations references for Berkeley DB Core?
    - Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide
    in particular sections: The Berkeley DB products, Shared memory regions, Chapter 11. Berkeley DB Transactional Data Store Applications, Chapter 17. The Logging Subsystem.
    - Getting Started with Berkeley DB (Java API Guide) and Getting Started with Berkeley DB Transaction Processing (Java API Guide).
    If so, you would have had the answers to these questions; the __db.NNN files are the environment shared region files needed by the environment's subsystems (transaction, locking, logging, memory pool buffer, mutexes), and the log.MMMMMMMMMM are the log files needed for recoverability and created when running with transactions.

    Thank you for contacting Mozilla support. I understand that you have imported bookmarks and now there are two unsorted bookmark folders.
    There is one by defualt and there is the one you imported. To better understand how you imported the bookmarks, can you please provide the steps you took to do this?

  • Unable to delete extra tracks that vocal tracking created while recording vocals.

    I Was tracking some vocals, so I selected the vocal tracking preset. It created more tracks every time I did a re take, even though I erased the unwanted take. Now I am left with 3 extra sub tracks under my vocal track. I would love to condense it, just can't figure out how to do it.

    The whole situation is going to be made a little more frustrating, because the code behind all of this is Fraunhofer's, not Adobe's. Adobe has to licence the codec from them, so if anything weird is happening with it on a different platform it may not be their fault at all. But because so few of us are Mac users, the collective information available will be scant - unless the developers get a handle on it.

    @#$%ING BEST MOVE I HAVE EVER MADE, AND SHOULD HAVE DONE IT A LONG TIME AGO!!!
    Anyway, my DJ Applications run like a Mack Truck on steroids, the MAC itself just idles along like it's on a stroll through the park, and my mind is now 100% on the job instead of constantly worrying about the performance issues of my hardware.
    Well there's the thing - my experience of Macs has been completely different. Laptops with the power supply connection held on by a magnet? That's not a sensible approach to anything - the number I've now seen held on by gaffer tape is considerable. And functionally they've been anything but wonderful - they seem to get hung up just as much as any PC I've ever experienced. As far as performance issues with PCs are concerned - well with my DAW, which is a clean machine, I've never had any performance issues at all. In comparative tests, there's no real advantage with Mac OS over - well, at least XP (although I'm not so sure about anything since that...)
    I'd say that with either platform, you need to keep your machine relatively clean if you want to retain performance. Nowadays there's very little difference in hardware terms - except that you are held to ransom by Apple's prices; it's all down to which OS you can cope with with least aggravation.

  • Why does the zynga toolbar not work or even show up with Firefox 4.0 beta 12

    I installed the Zynga toolbar last week and it does not show up, but in the properties it shows installed, but I can not get it to show up with the other toolbars.

    Just as a general comments:
    * if you use more than one version of firefox you need to create separate profiles for each, or you probably will run into problems see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_pre-release_versions]
    * if you are using the new 'firefox button' click on that and look for the toolbar viewing options, and any other options it lists
    Sorry I do not use Zynga, and do not know whether it is even fully compatible with Firefox 4 beta, alternatively it may even use the apps tabs feature see [[What are App Tabs?]]

  • How do I get rid of the new toolbar that was added by versions 20 and 21?

    I have tried both versions 20 and 21 and both have the bugs below so I ended up having to re-install version 19:
    1.) Versions 20 and 21 add a new toolbar that has nothing but a "Firefox" button on it - and no way to get rid of this toolbar is provided. It wastes far too much space on my laptop's screen - that button should have been put on one of the other toolbars or simply made part of the icon set that users can use to customize their menubar or other toolbars.
    2.) That new toolbar is not customizable. Hence, I don't have the option of recovering screen space by moving everything from my menubar onto the new toolbar then hiding the menubar.
    3.) The back, forward, and stop|reload buttons on my menubar no longer work. Moving them back to the navigation toolbar and showing that toolbar does not solve the problem. Nor can I right-click on a web page and select those functions from the context menu: they are permanently disabled there too.
    4.) I can no longer right click on the menubar or a toolbar and get a context menu from which you I can pick a "customize" option - I can't get a context menu AT ALL. In order to customize things for versions 20 or 21, I first have to reinstall version 19, do the customizations, then reinstall version 20 or 21.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • How to add URLs and/or bookmarks to a new toolbar

    I can create a new toolbar and drag buttons from/to the 'Customize Toolbar' dialog, and that new toolbar will be visible.
    But I want to use that new toolbar for extra favorite URLs and/or bookmarks. That does not seem to be allowed.
    I _can_ drag the 'Bookmark toolbar items' icon from the Bookmarks toolbar, but that does not solve my problem, now does it?

    There is one "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" container available for storing bookmarks, and that is where bookmarks are placed if you want them on a Toolbar. I have never seen an add-on that changes that by adding a 2nd "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" container.
    I understand that you want to reduce the toolbar area at the top of the browser window, because I have been doing that for almost as long as I have been using Firefox ''(since 2002 when it was called Phoenix)''. The first thing I do is to get rid of or '''reduce the Menu Bar down to one button''' using one of the various Compact Menu extensions that have been available over the years. This is the one I currently use.<br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/compact-menu-2/ <br />
    This extension hides the Menu Bar and places a button on the left side of the Navigation Bar upon installation. Click that blue globe button or hit the '''''Alt''''' key and the the Menubar Items appear in a drop-down menu. You can even drag that small button into the [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar Customize Palette] and use the '''''Alt''''' key to open the Menubar Items drop-down. <br />Hidden from view, but easily accessible when you need to use a Menubar Item.

  • Firefox not working, instructed to create a new profile, said it would save old files, restarted firefox, all old files seem to be gone? Can anyone explain?

    I was having issues with Firefox opening. I opened my Safari browser to troubleshoot and after looking for solutions to Firefox not opening, I opened the firefox profile manager. The directions instructed me to create a new profile and then delete my old one (and save old files). I did that and then upon restarting firefox all my bookmarks, history, passwords etc. were gone. When I looked at the folders in my profile file, they all had creation dates of only a few minutes prior. Did I lose it all? I followed the instructions, I don't understand where all my information went.

    Did you use the Profile Manager or did you use reset to create that new profile?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
    A reset tries to import some data from the old profile and then moves the profile to the desktop, but if you use the Profile Manager then you need to copy that data yourself to the new profile.
    If you've deleted the old profile before making sure that your data has been recovered then you've lost that personal data.
