How to stop Mozbar ha crashing Firefox and Chrome
-
I normally use Mozbar in Firefox (latest version 40.0.3) on Windows 7 64-bit. I've never had any problems with it before but just at the start of September I started getting multiple crash events in Firefox - it would crash, restart, instantly crash and so on. I worked through all plugins and turned them off one by one. Nothing worked - if the Mozbar was active Firefox crashed. I then switched to Chrome and installed Mozbar (and nothing else). The same thing started to happen - Chrome now crashes all the time. I've also do a complete virus scan with up to date software and nothing was found.
This is seriously starting to do my head in as I can't work without Mozbar but it's just constantly crashing.
Any ideas? Suggestions?

Will do, thanks.

I will try this, however, I've used Chrome for ages and it never crashed until I installed Mozbar (following the crashes in Firefox).

Hi, there.
I'm not entirely sure if it's a moz bar. We have 6 machines in the office with mozbars and none of them have such problems. However, we do have problems with FireFox itself. I wonder if it's your computer or browsers itself. Does that happen only on your computer? Have you tried to use MOZbar anywhere else?

Unsolved MozBar says no schema.org markup when it exists and validates elsewhere
I have added schema.org markup to many pages on my site (e.g https://discoverquotes.com/wisdom/) - since it is a quote site I marked up all the quotations - it validates with schema.org - but when I use MozBar and look at Page Analysis-->Markup the moz bar says I have no schema.org markup. Is this something Moz only updates periodically? If so, anyone know how often they update? or any ideas why moz bar is reporting a false negative?

MozBar 3.1.54 released: Spam Score and Smart Icon
Hey guys! We just launched MozBar version 3.1.54 for Chrome. 2 exciting new features: we now have Spam Score integrated into the MozBar (for Logged In users) the MozBar icon itself will now show DA when the MozBar is off. Click the icon to toggle this state (you can also click again to turn it completely off) We also fixed a few bugs, and removed Google Authorship from the Markup tab. Those of you who already have the MozBar installed, it will automatically update. For those new to the MozBar - you can download it here - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mozbar/eakacpaijcpapndcfffdgphdiccmpknp?hl=en Also big shout out to all of our MozBar users, we are now at 243k Chrome Installs. A full 110k increase from the version 3 launch in June last year. Thank you all! Love to hear your feedback below! Jon

Can't download mozbar
Fine, I'm an idiot. But when i get that Chrome apps page with mozbar on it, there's nothing clickable (that I can see) that actually downloads the thing. I've gotten it before, but now I can't find it. Is it hiding. Why doesn't it just sit in my dock? Any ideas. -W
