They could first show a new version to other web developers Google, Yahoo etc so they could at least start updating their software to be compatible. Then, after a couple of days delay the browser could be released to public. But isn't this typical of FireFox nowadays - shoot first and think later. Depressing that they know of incompatibilities but don't tell you until it's too late.
Same happened with v 4, and that took a long time to fix. Why bother entering a version race when they can't handle the important details?
There should be a warning before installation I can't believe that a worldwide company such as Firefox and Google don't sort this out before releasing updates Come on get with the programme we're in the 21st century Is there a reason why add-ons break with updates? Not all add-ons break with updates, so does this mean some developers of add-ons knowingly restrict their add-ons to certain versions? I've installed the compatibility reporter which has got the toolbar working, but I can't enable the Google new tab page.
It was working before I upgraded to 5 and there's no longer an option in settings. I've been using Firefox since the beginning, but I'm about to return to IE.
Google Toolbar is my most important add-on and this is the second time in a matter of months that Mozilla have released new versions of Firefox without bothering to see if they work with the toolbar. This sort of contempt for users is why I left IE in the first place, but even MS manage to get the toolbar working with new releases. If you aren't prepared to support widely used add-ons, why bother having add-ons in the first place.
It should enable just about any plugin on 5 - but bear in mind they haven't been tested with five and so may not work Be patient?
It seems worse than bonkers that Firefox releases an update that isn't compatible with the worlds biggest search engine toolbar. Get real Firefox, and liase with Google properly. Keep using Firefox 5, it has better security. Google Toolbar still works just fine with Firefox 5, but until Google releases a toolbar compatible with Firefox 5, you need to disable add-on compatible versions verification. It basically tells Firefox to ignore the maximum compatible version so the toolbar can be enabled on version 5 too, not blocked just because Firefox releases major version numbers like mad just for the sake of catching up with IE9 and Chrome I can understand why Firefox guys are not in a hurry to ensure Google Toolbar is compatible.
I was surprised firefox 5 didn't support google toolbar. Nowadays community are beginning to filled with non-respectful individuals. They do not care why Google Toolbar is very important to some people - especially developers. They themselves are developers but they are too stupid and stubborn to respect this issue. I suggest mozilla 'fire' the person s involved in notifying to upgrade to Firefox 5 without paying careful 'conscious' regarding certain issue.
If more people like 'these' fill in the community, mozilla will have their own grave buried sooner or later. How come they do not check first before urgently recommend people to upgrade to 5 when one of the major issue doesn't resolved? Privacy Promise Learn how Firefox treats your data with respect.
