Session Manager
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I just wanted to correct the record on my last review. All the problems I was having with Session Manager were being caused by Fast Dial. Not only that but Fast Dial was wreaking all sorts of havoc on Firefox. Fortunately I finally stumbled onto the cause. Normally Fast Dial is a good addon but something has obviously gone seriously wrong with it.

Too often if Firefox crashes or I have to force it to close because it is hanging, when I open it back up all of my saved sessions and closed tabs in the dropdown menu are gone. This addon needs the ability to restore these when they are lost due to a crash.

I've got this addon working. I used the "fixed" version but I assume it will work with this version if you can download it. I first used FEBE to backup my addons and I then used a ZIP program to unzip the Googlebar XPI. Then I used Notepad to look at the Install.rdf file. Look for these lines:
<!-- Firefox -->
<em:targetApplication>
<Description>
<em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>
<em:minVersion>2.0</em:minVersion>
<em:maxVersion>43.0.1</em:maxVersion>
Look in Firefox Help/ About Firefox menu to see the what your version of Firefox is and change the max version to that. You'll have to do that for every new version of Firefox unless the author updates the addon. Now you have to type about:config into the address bar. Now type in xpinstall into search box. Now look for xpinstall.signatures.required. Double click on it which will change it to false. Now go to Add-ons in the Tools menu. Click on the gear icon menu then click on Install addon from file and search for the location that you specified for your FEBE backup and install Googlebar. Now your set.

The Google bar just stopped working for me. The buttons stopped working but the link listed in the posting further down has an updated fix for it.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Sorry, but I have to give this one star. The Dolphin browser version makes it very easy to add websites to Speed Dial by simply holding your finger in the address bar and you then get that as one of the options that comes up. To not have this in the Firefox version is not acceptable.

I updated this by increasing the max version in the Intall.rdf file. You have to open the xpi file first using a zip program like jzip and then edit the install.rdf using notepad. Change the line that says maxVersion to say 4.0 between the arrows like so: >4.0<. Make you are doing it in the spot below where it says Firefox. Below that there are also lines for the Mozilla Suite, Seamonkey, and Netscape. Seem to be working fine since I updated it. When you close jzip and it asks you if you want to "update archive" do that as well and then you just have to install the xpi using the addon manager. You might also have to use internet explorer to download the xpi from somewhere on the internet. I don't know of any way to do it here at the addons page. I am only subtracting one star because typing in the search field is so slow. I don't even type in it that much anymore. Just hit the google button and go to google. Much faster typing it in there.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
This is a great addon except for one very irritating behavior. After Firefox has crashed and you then click on Firefox to open it again you will get the session manager window. One problem: if you have other windows open it will hide behind those windows, so many times you are waiting for Firefox to open until you figure out that the Session Manager window is hiding behind another window waiting for you to choose a session. I really wish you would fix this behavior and make Session Manager show itself on top of other windows. Why does it do this? I can't think of any other program that behaves like this. I hope you will fix this. Thanks.

I really like this add-on a lot. But I seem to have one problem with it. It seems that when it restores the session, the order of tabs is reversed. Does anyone else have this problem?
The one thing I really like about this add-on is that it constantly updates what tabs I have open. The other session managers always seemed to restore the previous session when I had a crash and I always ended up losing tabs. That was very frustrating especially when your browser is crashing a lot. Thanks!!!

I like this theme. The only thing it is missing is the ability to tell which emails are new ones. The lack of support for this feature in any number of themes is a real downer. Hoping that some of the older themes that do support it get updated for 2.0 soon.
