Why won't Firefox 5.0 allow my Google Toolbar to be installed/work?? VERY annoying!! I would like to install an earlier version of Firefox to allow the Google toolbar to be displayed.

I installed Firefox 5.0 yesterday and can no longer use my Google Toolbar. My Google Toolbar is the best organization tool out there and I would like to continue to use it. What is the problem with Firefox and Google?

No doubt Google Toolbar will be modified to work with Firefox 5. Meanwhile a known method of getting them to work together is downloading installing and running the add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ compatability reporter]
There are disadvantages to downgrading Firefox,
* see [[installing a previous version of firefox]]
you now have to downgrade to Firefox 3.6 because Firefox 4 is not secure. If you do downgrade to Firefox 3.6 do not expect that to be supported much longer. (Firefox 7 is moving to the Aurora channel next week)

  • Why won't Firefox bring up the SmartZone Communications center so I can access my E-mail? I just downloaded the latest version of Firefox.

    I have been using Firefox for many months. I just downloaded the new version and now it won't pull up my E-mail from the SmartZone Communications center. It indicates that it is loading but just remains in limbo.

    OK, I can get Firefox 8 downloaded but then what do I do? The instructions say to move the Firefox image to the applications folder and then drag the icon from the folder to the dock. I don't know how to do this.

  • Why won't firefox connect to the internet when IE will?

    Mozilla stopped working about a week ago without my knowledge of any updates or anything like that. Internet Explorer still works fine and will connect but when I try to use Firefox it tells me 'unable to connect.' I have already removed Firefox and re-installed but that has not corrected the problem. I also spent some time looking through the settings of Firefox and things seem in order. Do you have any suggestions? I'm not sure why this happened but I can't take IE much longer (yeah your product is that good!). I am currently running windows 7.
    Thanks,

  • Why won't Firefox connect to the internet?

    a few days ago, my firefox just stopped working all of a sudden. i can open up a page but it won't connect to the internet which is really weird because i've had my pc for a while and i've never had this problem. maybe it was the latest update for firefox? i can also browse the internet with internet explorer and safari but i like firefox a lot better so this issue is irritating. it was just from one day to another, i didn't do anything out of the ordinary to my pc and firefox doesn't work anymore. i'm hoping its just a glitch and other people are experiencing it too and there will be a solution soon but i can't help but feel frustrated. please help!

  • Why won't my Power Button allow the iMac to sleep anymore?

    When trying to make the imac sleep, the power button no longer works to allow me to do that? Can i ask if anyone had the same issue and has fixed it? I did the SMC thing but It still wont go to sleep.
    Thanks

    If none of that helps, it could be your power button needs fixing.  Mind you, I don't like using the power button, since it can just as easily accidently act like you are powering down without saving anything, create a scenario where your directory may get damaged.

  • My virus scanner warns it is not compatible with the latest version of firefox, so i deinstalled firefox, It is trendmicro. I would like to have an earlier firefox version back, but were can i find it

    I upgraded FireFox. My virusscanner TrendMicro complained it was nog compatible with this version.
    So I desinstalled FireFox.
    Do you know a solution?
    Otherwise I would like to have an earlier version of FireFox, but where can I download it? I don't see a link at your site
    thanx Yrram

    Hey yrram,
    There are a lot of benefits to running the latest version of Firefox. You might want to consider running the older version on [http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable/localization#legacy36 a USB Stick with PortableApps]. That way you'll still be able to run the latest version for your day to day activities. You could also try the workaround in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-incorrectly-report-firefox-outdated-or-in this article].
    If you still want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Why won't my security scan allow me to download creative cloud?

    Why won't my windows 8 allow my download to pass the security scan?

    At a guess (you don't list the error), what maybe happening is that you have booted from the original OS install disc, told it to install the (old) original OS on to the hard disk and it has said - no thanks you cannot install an older version because it already has a newer version installed.
    This is 'normal', what you have to do is totally erase the hard disk first. You do this by booting from the original OS install disc, but rather than trying to do an install straight away, you should first use Disk Utility and use that to erase the hard disk. Then you can run the install again and because the hard disk will be empty it will not have a newer OS on it and the installer will be happy.
    Obviously this means any files you have on the hard disk will be erase as well. If you want to keep them you are going to need to back them up first, the easiest way would be to use Time Machine to backup to an external hard disk.

  • Why won't firefox search?

    Why won't firefox search when I type anything into the search bar? It lists everything I've typed in before but when you click search it just sits there doing nothing. If I use the search bar in the top right corner it searches just fine, but nothing from the central search line.
    Also what is the line below this for? if I mouse over it I get a pointy finger, but it is blank and remains blank.

    If you can't clear that saved form and search history then there may be nothing to clear.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Why won't firefox close

    Why won't Firefox close properly? When I close the program and then try and restart it, I get an error message which says "Firefox is already open....." I then have to go into the Task Manager to close it down.

  • HT4101 Why won't my iPad mini allow my gopro 32gb SD card to transfer video using the lightening to SD card camera reader?

    Why won't my iPad mini allow my gopro 32gb SD card to transfer video using the lightening to SD card camera reader?
    The gopro transfer worked with my original iPad. Is it the lightening technology?

    If you've gone through all that and it's the right kind of SD card, right naming convention etc. try giving your iPad a reset. Sometimes that port gets turned off (for lack of a better term) and a reset turns it back on. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
    If it still doesn't work, if you have access to another iPad try the reader on that. THere are some defective ones out there. If it works on another iPad then there's something going on with yours. If it doesn't work on another iPad then you may want to take that reader back and exchange it because it may be bad.

  • Why won't my airport express allow internet connection on TV blu ray? I have internet connection on iMac

    Why won't my Airport Express allow internet connection on my Blu Ray when there is internet connection on my IMac?

    I'm guessing you only have the modem/router supplied by your isp and the Airport Express.  Is the Airport Express connected to the modem/router with an ethernet cable?  If not, plug one end of the cable into an available port on the modem/router and the other end in to the WAN port, indicated with a dashed circle, on the Airport Express.
    Have a nice day.

  • Why won't Firefox won't download?

    Why won't Firefox download? It completed the set up stage then stops.

    If downloads hang at the last minute (just before reaching 100%), the cause might be antivirus software which tries to scan the file and during that process hangs the Firefox instance.
    In order to fix the problem, try disabling the scanning as follows:
    # In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
    # Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page. A list of settings should appear
    # Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in ''scanWhenDone''. '''You should now find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference'''.
    #Double-click on that preference to set the value to ''false''.
    #Next, try to download something and see if it still hangs.

  • Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

    Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

    Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
    If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
    I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • Why won't firefox won't install on my imac with ox 10.5.8?

    I am trying to install firefox for the first time on this machine. It will not install. It seems to be incompatible. Can I install an earlier version?

    Hello, Thank you for the reply. I have the SDK tool but haven't had much time to work with it and get it to run proper. It is a new phone and "ATT" has disabled several features on it as to restrict usage of thier phones. I Did get Fennec to install from your feb 22 update (#4.06pre) and so far it runs great. So I will try and use it as much as possible to test it out. I don't know what changes you made from the one in the android market to that one but it fixed the problem and thank you.
