Firefox Site identity button
Hello
I have a problem with the function of the identity button as it is also described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-tell-if-my-connection-is-secure?as=u & utm_source = inproduct
What led to this article is a situation in which I was redirected to paypal from another site, in order to make a purchase.
(see attached photo)
As seen in the photo URL is marked with the gray Triangle, and I wonder what that means exactly the message means "the site does not provide identity information.
1. is it possible that this is not 'paypal.com' location, although it is written in the URL?
2. If paypal, it isn't safe complete the transaction?
3. is it possible that Paypal has no certificate?
I checked the last question, simply went straight to paypal.com . I got the Green padlock.
My feeling is that, in many cases, somehow it saying "can't see the forest for the trees' described the situation with that a regular user is addressed.
The differences between
"The site does not provide identity information" (grey Triangle)
"The address of the site has been verified" (gray lock)
"The connection between Firefox and the site is encrypted partially and do not prevent listening" (Orange Triangle)
Are not really clear and it is not clear if IMPORTANT data is secure or not.
What to do or why me if the image is not encrypted, if credit card details are?
Please notify
TX
If the image that is not well served from a URL, you believe that you can have confidence and that is related to the transaction, then I personally don't worry too much.
You can temporarily block the image if you wish and then it unlock when you return to the site. To block images from a site, right-click on an empty area of the page, choose View Page Info, then the media above icon. Find the problem image in the dialog box and then check the box above the preview area in the lower part of the dialog box to block images from this site.
Close the dialog box and reload the page and it should no longer be mixed.
To cancel this, when you return to the main site, you can find a picture stuck on the media group and uncheck this box.

Address bar URL and FavIcon image do not update until the user clicks the Site identity button
I noticed that each time the Site identity button is gray (i.e. most of the time), when you navigate different pages on a web site, the address bar does not change and just continues to show the root of the domain, for example "eircom.net" when the actual URL can be 'http://entertainment.eircom.net/movies/'. the real URL is not revealed until I click on the Site identity button. I get a pop up of Firefox "this website does not provide identity information.
the URL of the previous page/site (and the image of the FavIcon) are left in place until I click on the button.Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

Is there a work around to show the Site identity button when the integration with facebook like/send etc. It disappears when it comes to the page, it's because of the iframe
What can be done if anything.
Pages that use "mixed content" (parts of the use of the HTTP page and some use HTTPS) are not secure against tampering, they will not display the site identity button. To resolve this problem, make sure that external resources you are incorporation are available over HTTPS and you use HTTPS to nest them.
For example, to iframe widgets like the Facebook 'Like' buttons, make sure that your iframe use src = "https://192.168.1.20 /...". »

FF 14 Site identity icons are missing
I use "Firefox 3 theme for Firefox 4 +'."
The identity of the site and plugins-click-to-play icons are missing.I would be happy to know what files are default theme needs to be copied.
Thank you.
(I asked the developer remedy).
Hello
Please note that the site identity feature has been changed and it would appear prominently on really secure sites.
The plugins.click_to_play is an "opt-in" feature from now and must be activated manually Subject: config. So, now there is a button/icon/preference UI.

Firefox 5: reload button is gray!
Firefox 5: reload button is gray!
This happens on Yahoo! (my browser home page) and even on this site. Note: No URL will appear when this happens.
I opened a new browser for troubleshooting info. Same question.
When I closed the Troubleshooting tab, the original page now shows the URL and the reset button is activated...(When I closed and open a new page - the problem comes back.)
I had no such problem with Firefox 4.

I lost this Firefox orange rectangular button that used to be in the upper left corner of my screen? How can I get that back?)
Most likely, you are showing the menu bar. Right-click on the toolbar area and uncheck the Menu bar - the Firefox button should appear. You can switch from one to the other.

Why is Firefox site identification information memory when it is configured to not?
For these two days, the sites that I am logged in show credentials cached so that I don't have to enter the user name or password. I specifically set up for not remembering passwords of Firefox and I block websites to remember information. I also cookies and history the value delete immediately. And the browser is running in private mode.
Running Firefox 28.0
It is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clear cookies does not work.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete the other files of cookies as cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.
It is possible that Firefox is not running in PB mode for some reason any despite the setting, as this may block extensions.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

Cannot find Firefox Android menu button in Jelly Bean
I always keep Firefox for Android today to the latest version, but since I upgraded my Android to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 in a Samsung Galaxy S2, I now can't find the Menu for Firefox button anywhere. I'm trying to bookmark a page and your instructions say to press the Menu button then press the star, but if I have done this in the past to ICS, these buttons apparently do not exist for me now.
Your photos on the Web show a bar at the bottom of the screen with a Menu icon, and a pop-up menu that shows the Star bookmark as one of the options in the Menu. I don't have a Menu icon or all the other icons at the bottom of my screen. I have some physical of the phone bottom back right button under the screen and the Menu physical button < of the phone > bottom left under the screen, but when I press the < phone > Menu button while I have a page showing in FF, all I get is a long menu of choice starting with share , Find in Page, request the Site Desktop, tools, etc. There are no choices that give me a star to mark a page.
Please tell us how can I find the star to bookmark or change the settings to make it reappear.
Thank you.
Hold the presses!
Every time I pressed the Menu button of the phone in the bottom left, below the screen, a menu popped up which, as stated in my original post, started by hand. Assuming that held the top of the list, I have marched each time, but found no star for bookmarking, so I finally gave up and posted my question.
However, this time, when I tried once more to use the Menu button of the phone, there are other items on the menu drop-down including, in the top row, the star for bookmarking! Why the menu popped up differently this time, who knows, but I'm happy to finally have the answer.
Problem solved.

I was cleaning my Add-ons, etc and noticed that extension, Smart Printing button 1.0 is disabled b/c, it is not compatible with my current version of FF 18.0.1, why not uninstall and go? I looked for answers on how to do it, but come up empty. I searched my C drive for the HP, print Web program (such as suggested by the forums HP) and found nada, I think I might have deleted (not uninstalled correctly) as I felt as I didn't need and now the extension. How can I remove the extension of Smart Printing button 1.0 on the list of Firefox extensions in the current situation?
This extension is likely to have been installed in the world and is located on via an analysis of the registry.
