Mozilla Firefox (official thread)

I'm sorry ... what did you just say?

Just realized CTRL-ENTER (to turn "google" into http://www.google.com) is disabled on Firefox 4.

The solution? Disabling the omnibar which removes the Chrome-copying functionality of typing in your google query into the address bar.

Finally upgraded & I like it a lot. Don't really use any of the add-on's (besides flash block), so the look is atleast an upgrade for me lol.

Changed my mind for the time being.....too many script errors & was too laggy. Switched over to Chrome and like it so far.

App tabs (I know, a feature that was already part of Chrome) have led to me using more Google Services such as Calendar and Tasks. It's nice to be able to have those things always at hand, but out of the way.

Well that lasted about 20 minutes....for some reason Chrome wouldn't allow me to attach files to an email. I'd click "attach files" (both in yahoo & gmail) and it wouldn't do anything. Tried clearing the cache & restarting and still nothing....back to FF4

What is the Gmail app you have on yours? I can't find one anywhere for FF4. I found Gmail Manager but that isn't what I want...I am using FB/Twitter/Youtube/Yahoo apps and they all seem to work fine but would really like a Gmail app.

I don't even use a Gmail app anymore. I pin the tab and use the Tab Badge extension for notifications. It actually works better and faster than the old Gmail extensions I used to use since it comes closer to a push service rather than a fetch service.

Tab Badge works well to pin other tabs/websites too, including twitter, facebook, etc.

Yeah, I had already installed Tab Badge and used it for FB/BP/etc so I guess i'll just use it for Gmail too. Thanks

It started crashing on me about 2 weeks ago. It's gotten better but it still crashes here and there. On my work computer however, it's not useable :(

Is anyone having issue with how the pages are displayed? Buckeplanet is all messed up, as are other pages like gmail. Everything displays and works properly in IE so it has to be a firefox issue.

 

[jwinslow]

Nope, using FF4 right now.

I have two systems and it is working fine on one but not on the other. IE is working okay on the system that firefox is not. This just started yesterday so it is odd. I decided to do the upgrade to see if it would help and notta....

Did you add or update any extensions recently? You could try disabling all of them, and see if that fixes it. If that's the case, turn them back on one by one until you find which one is causing the problem.

I turned off all extensions and plugins...no change....I hate this kind of stuff
