Norton Identity Safe with Firefox

• can I use Norton toolbar and Identity Safe with Firefox?

  I currently use Chrome on my PC Windows 8.1 and I plan to switch to Firefox after the good reviews, but I want to make sure that I can use my Norton Identity Safe and toolbar.

  Yes, Norton keeps their Firefox extensions updated with the calendar of the Firefox releases; updates are generally available within hours (or minutes) after that Mozilla releases a new version of Firefox. Much, much better than the other security Suites that are currently available.

  As already mentioned, all the user needs is to run a Norton Live Update after update Firefox, although sometimes, the user may need to run the update Live a few times to get all the updates to download and install.

• Why can't Norton Identity Safe compatibility be integrated into the latest versions of Firefox? IE seems not to have problems with it.

  Firefox constantly asks me to upgrade to the latest version, which is not a problem as long as the new generation is compatible with applications that I serve throughout and rely on every day. I use the 40.0.3 version and it wants me to update to 41.0.2. If the Norton Identity Safe toolbar work with my current version of Firefox, what is the compatibility issue with a newer version of Firefox? IE does not appear to have this problem of update... which makes me consider the switch back to IE as my default browser. I rely on the Identity Safe to take care of my connection problems, and there is no need to deal with problems of incompatibility. I know I'm not alone in finding this aggravation with updates. (I use Win7 Home Premium, 64-bit).

  Sorry, this is a change in the types of code Add - ons are allowed to include. It was supposed to change in Firefox 40, but at the request of vendors such as Symantec, it was postponed to 41 of Firefox. I don't think this change will flip over. Norton is working on a new version, but I understand that it takes longer than expected.

  Here's what I suggest for users who need Norton password security features:

  Instead of freezing your Firefox on a non secure version, consider using the Extended Support Release (ESR). It is designed for businesses that require a cycle time longer between changes to the features, but anyone can use it. ESR is currently based on Firefox 38. It will get updates of security over the coming months, but not to get new features, so changes in Firefox 41 concerning the compatibility of the add-on will not be out for a good time.

  Norton is likely to continue to support the ESR until the new toolbar update is finished, maybe next month. After that, I don't know what they will do because normally they don't take over a small range of versions.

  If you decide to try it, here's how I suggest to install:

  Clean reinstall it

  We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

  (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 38.3.0esr of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

  (C) simply rename the program folder, either:

  (Windows 64-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Fx41
  

  (Windows 32-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files\Fx41
  

  (D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  Success?

  Note: Some plugins can only exist in the old folder. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \Fx41\Plugins
  • \Fx41\browser\plugins

• Norton Identity Safe is incompatible with Firefox 5 How downgrade to an earlier version that is compatible?

  I've recently switched to Firefox as my default browser (previously Microsoft Internet Explorer - which was not very reliable), I have also recently upgraded to Version 5.0.1 but now cannot run Norton Identity Safe (or the Norton Toolbar). If it's not really compatible, I want to go back to an earlier version of Firefox to allow me to run Norton Toolbar and Identity Safe.
  I would like your advice please.
  Thank you
  John

  See Norton for a fix. It seems that when they have updated their Firefox for 5 Firefox extensions, they not be providing for the possibility that a 5.0.1 release may be required.

  The strange thing is that 5.0.1 was not even an update of ' for Windows & Linux. Other than the number, on these platforms 5.0 & 5.0.1 are exactly the same. Only users of Mac OSX has got the real update, that has been done to solve specific problems in Firefox caused by Apple in the new version of the OS 10.7 Lion last week, and an Apple update for 10.5 and 10.6 at the same time.

  Only users who have downloaded a complete new installation of the package in the last week or two for Windows & Linux would have got Firefox 5.0.1 - and it's only because the Mozilla download servers run the same version number, it cannot provide 5.0.1 for Mac and 5.0 for Windows & Mac.

• Norton Identity Safe in Norton 360 Version 5 does not work in Firefox 8.0.

  Has been using Norton Internet Security 2012. Updated Norton 360 Version 5. Also updated Firefox to 8.0. Now the Norton Toolbar does not appear in Firefox, and the Norton Identity Safe is not accessible. Symantec asked me to run LiveUpdate, until all updates are applied; Yes, I did. The toolbar and Identity Safe are still not available in Firefox 8.0.

  See the original statement of the problem: I bought and installed Norton 360 v5 (2012) as a replacement for Norton Internet Security 2012. I'm NOT under NIS12 or NAV12. It took 4 tracks of LiveUpdate for N360 to fully update. Now it works!

• Why is Firefox 42.0 not get updated to be compatible with Norton Identity Safe?

  Although the Norton Toolbar now appears to 42.0, Identity Safe function does not work with. Firefox does not provide the same level of assistance navigation that makes Identity Safe from Norton, and using Firefox without the Identity Safe requires several additional keys and many more lost time. Norton make sure that the secure identity must be compatible, and it works fine in Internet Explorer. Norton claims that Firefox "Auditors" are always check program compatibility issues, but how long this process will take? Use Firefox without the Identity Safe is so cumbersome and time-consuming that I might have to try Google Chrome or go back to Internet Explorer, even if I used Firefox since it first came out. Please don't force me to spend. Thank you.

  I understand its annoying, but the toolbar compatibility is something being developed by Norton, please also request their support.
