Re: Introducing the Toolbar for Firefox beta!

(Google Toolbar Guide 2) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 23:34:07 UT

As a side note, I've been asked a few times why there's a Toolbar 3
and now a Toolbar 5. What happened to Toolbar 4? Well, the truth is
that we're using Fibonacci numbers, so next up is Toolbar 8! Just
kidding. :-)

The real reason is because Toolbar for Firefox and Toolbar for IE
features are now nearly on par with each other. Although Toolbar for

Greetings.....when I used to use IEXPLOR for my browser, autofill
worked great. Now, the icon is on the toolbar when I open and use
Mozilla Firefox, but it wont "activate" or highlight itself to
autofill the boxes when they would normally make themselves
available. Same holds true with the sign in function of the with

Ciao Rani,

could you provide us with more exact details regarding the site from
which you downloaded the Google Toolbar xpi file (did the download
itself succeed ?) and what happened when you attempted to install it ?
Have you tried temporarily disabling your antivirus programme
(disconnect from the internet first !) before trying to install the

Connie, I'm not entirely sure what you mean when you write that your
<<firefox page is appearing in German>>, but you might want to consider
doing the following :

Click <<Tools>> → <<Options>> in your Firefox menu bar at the top of your
screen, open the <<Contents>> tab (presumably <<Inhalt>> in German, in any

Tracy, just to complement Kiku's answer to the first part of your
query (<<How do I delete the ones that are already there?>>) with a
reply to the second part (<<and how do I make it stop saving them>>) :
If you are using a Windows machine, click <<Tools>> → <<Options>> in the
Firefox menu bar at the top of your screen and open the <<Privacy>>

Hi Tracy,

It sounds like you're referring to Firefox's Address bar, and not the
Google Toolbar. Try following these steps to clear your search or

Re: I have lost forward and back button since google

(Google Toolbar Guide 2) — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 19:02:12 UT

Hi lostin and Registradus,

Sorry to hear these buttons are missing. Try right-clicking an open
area on your Firefox toolbar, and select "Customize." Click the
"Restore Default Set" button, and click "Done." Does this bring these
buttons back?

Thanks,

Kiku

Dee, just as a complement to Gerry's excellent instructions above,
you and your friend might want to consider using Google Documents
([link]) to collaborate on the text. With this tool
one can work together on the same document at the same time, and avoid
sending draughts and revisions back and forth. Give it a whirl - I

Venky, to install the new Toolbar 5.0 beta, first proceed to this site
([link]), download the browser, and then follow the
prompts that appear on your screen in order to install the .xpi file.
The spanner icon for the «Tools» button will appear on the far right
of your Toolbar after a successful installation. Report back and let

Hi Dee
This is how I do it.
First on the original email I, with the left mouse key down, would
highlight the areas that I want to edit. Then at the top of the screen

proceed to compose a new email. Once I have the new email screen I

Vicki, I don't remember ever seeing such a button on the Google
Toolbar for Firefox (if I be wrong, someone here is bound to correct
me !), but one with precisely the functions you describe does exist
on, for example, the toolbar to the Gmail «Compose Mail» window. (The
