• I can't see the list of my Add-ons (extensions). It shows me a blank page.

  After that I updated firefox 42.0, I can't see the list of my Add-ons (extensions). I see a blank page instead. Modules work, but I can't manage/uninstall any of them.

  It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

  Delete the files (extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

  If you see disabled extensions or is not compatible in "Firefox button/Tools menu > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button at the left end of the search bar to check if there is an update available compatibility.

  If this did not help, then also delete the addons.json file.

• Firefox will not shoot to the top of page Add-ons and can never end updates.

  As others have had it, I had the same problem with Add-ons compatibility check after upgrading firefox. He has never progressed so I ended up following the steps, others responded to other issues by removing compatibility under the profile folder files, and other files. None which seemed to work. I found myself completely remove firefox and reinstall, but which did not help. I really need to install firebug, but when I try to download it just hangs up and never even begin to download. Hope this is enough detail. Thank you.

  I think it was more a problem with the Mavericks. I expect the next update and it finally did after that I asked this question. Everything seems to be back to normal now.

• How to open the Bookmarks Manager to add ons development

  Hi I am a beginner and you are looking to write one ff Add. I'm stuck on finding a way to open the bookmarks manager with code. Say every time the browser starts I want to open the Manager of bookmarks as well. How can I achieve this? I use the sdk of ff.

  You can use one of these URI chrome:

  • chrome://browser/content/places/places. XUL
  • chrome://browser/content/bookmarks/bookmarksPanel.XUL

  The first opens the Manager of bookmarks (library) and the second the bookmarks that you see in the sidebar.

• Any way to install the Google search without Add-ons?

  Firefox (at least on the version of Linux) does not include the default Google search engine. She also cannot be manually installed by navigating to google.com because it does not "add a search engine" in the pull down menu in the search bar. (I'm not settle for alternatives such as DuckDuckGo or Startpage.)

  Is it possible to install it without the use of Add-ons?

  This looks like a bug. The 'add search engine"for Google works for me on Linux. Google also has their own blue banner that appears whenever I'm doing a Google search saying "Set Google as your default search engine."

  There is no way to manually edit search engines, however. The good news is, you don't need to keep whatever the module allows you to add a search engine. These modules are needed to get the search engine added. When you have added the Google search, you can remove the add-on.

• By clicking on the button options to add ons causes the addition on the window to hang on the 3.6.3 version but without problem on 3.5

  Add on the window crashes whenever I select the button options

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  == I upgraded to firefox 3.5 to 3.6.3

  What is happening to me with all the Add-ons, but only since the Update June 24 my Firefox 3.6.4. When I opened Firefox after the update, all traces of my Add ons were gone (Zotero, StumbleUpon, ForecastFox, Delicious Bookmarks), although he said they were located in the window modules. Neither uninstalling and reinstalling modules individual, not more than all of Firefox, or uninstall Firefox and re - install Firefox 3.5 has worked to solve the problem and when I enter the window click options on any of the Add-ons and modules that window freezes, and despite the main window of Firefox is still functional, you must restart Firefox to release the window modules. I'm afraid that all evidence of my modules disappeared.

  This, but described a part of my problem, but it seems not get quite the show or provide a solution.

  Any thoughts?

• Registry entry to force the installation of the updates of the player?

  Greetings!

  I tried to deploy updates to the reader through our network via GPO, but it has been a real, real problem. In addition, because some client computers are connected through slow links at the time of installation is sometimes excruciatingly long (configured computer GPO).

  SMS is not an option right now, so I think that rather than use GPOS to manage centrally the drive updates I lower my arms and leave the choice to the users. So my question is if there is some sort of a registry setting which will force the Player updates to install once they are downloaded from the Internet. Or, Alternatively, if it is a kind of login script available which would check if there's a player update available for installation and install it by force. Or, Alternatively, if anyone has found a better way to deal with the nightmare of the Reader GPO deployment.

  Hello

  Well, as you said, GPO would have been the best option to update through a corporate network. You can view the guide at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83709/attachments/Acrobat_Enterprise_Administration.pdf. It can give you some more tips on how to maybe change your settings in order to ensure a quick installation.

  As your second question, you can use the option "Install updates automatically" for the Player update, which automatically installs updates as and when it downloads everything. The registry entry to set the same is as below:

  Before Reader 10.1:

  [HKLM] \Software\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM\

  Name: iCheck (DWORD)

  Value: 3

  Post Reader 10.1:

  [HKLM] \Software\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM\

  Name: iCheckReader (DWORD)

  Value: 3

  You can set the same using a script for connection via GPO. This will ensure that all as updates and available will settle as soon as its downloaded, provided no process of the drive is running at this time here.

  For more details on all the configurations on update preferences, please see the following document:

• Installation of new Add-ons

  Firefox wasn't loading properly I tried to restart Firefox, then I restarted the computer that neither worked Web pages. Then I reset Firefox, that solved my problems. All transferred on the well but I had to re download all my add on. He had no problems there either. But when I tried to add more search engines to the search bar it gives me this message "sorry, you need a browser based on Mozilla (like Firefox) to install a search plugin.» I copy my old search engines more but I can't add any new.

  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).

  If this happens again, you can first try some like these basic steps:

  Reload Web pages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

  • Hold SHIFT and click reload.
  • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
  • Press 'Command + shift + R' (MAC)

  Clear the cache and cookies from sites that cause problems.

  "Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

  'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

• Force the installation script
