Gmail notifier
If you are having problems with FF Gmail notifier not working it's because google have changed the URL for GMail
You can manually change the extension settings to point to the new URL or use the extension from here
http://www.richstyles.net/archives/g....2-fx%2Bmz.xpi
You will have to download and then drag and drop the extension into the extensions window for it to install though.
No doubt there will be a full update for it soon though as the author is aware of the problem.
The manual adjustments instructions are
Quote:
Go to Mozilla extensions folder in the profile folder and find GMail Notifier extension (mine was at
c:\Documents and Settings\USER NAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\2s3d13q3.default\ext ensions\{44d0a1b4-9c90-4f86-ac92-8680b5d6549e}\).
Now go to components folder and open nsGMNotifierService.js file with Notepad or other editor and replace all ocurrences of gmail.google.com/gmail with mail.google.com/mail and restart firefox. The extension is now working

No probs, I noticed Gmail notifier wasn't logging in this morning and someone posted on Neowin about it, couple of hours later and the resolution was available from the author and a manual resolution was posted by another member. Just thought I would pass it on in case people were wondering why they weren't getting any notifications lol.

Strange that as the IE notifier was reported as affected too, might depend on what version though.

Dunno mate, not found any hints or clues on various forums, the people of Google work in mysterious ways

Cool, I didn't get any notification about an update since it's probably the same update I manually installed yesterday.
