Just setting browser.download.useJSTransfer;false, restart Nightly and you can using it.

Awesome.
Download Sort was also broken, but it seems like a user made an unofficial patch.

Everything works perfectly now! Thanks a mil.

My Dowload Statusbar 0.9.10 no longer shows anything. Also, I don't see
browser.download.useJSTransfer
in about:config.
 
What to do?
 
Thanks.

Probably:
Right click on any preference -> New -> Boolean ,
fill in the pref name and value.

In Firefox 23 make sure browser.download.useToolkitUI is false

bomfog and Jayhawks: No luck.

Right now, I have the following settings but my Download Statusbar 0.9.10 still doesn't show anything:

browser.download.useDownloadDir;false
browser.download.useJSTransfer;false
browser.download.useToolkitUI;false

My Firefox is version 23.0.1.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

This pref browser.download.useJSTransfer does not exist in my Firefox 23. Did you add it or are you running 23 using a profile created in a later Firefox version?

Firefox 24 was released a few hours ago.

Jayhawks: I added it, as recommended by someone above. Since it didn't help, I suppose I should delete it.

But any thoughts on getting Download Statusbar 0.9.10 to work?

Thanks.

No new ideas. Just checked again and Download Statusbar works for me on Firefox 17esr, 23, 24 and 25. The changes to Firefox in 26 have killed a bunch of extensions including Download Statusbar.

I have NO other download helper extensions, plugins or OS level programs. Run Avast A/V using NONE of the toolbars and Windows firewall. I do know the Real Player Downloader breaks all kinds of stuff related to downloading.

Download Statusbar is working fine here in Fx 24.0 and was working also fine in previous versions.

I dragged the Firefox Downloads arrow via Customize down into the Customize Toolbar.

I have in about:config
browser.download.useDownloadDir: false
browser.download.useToolkitUI: true
I don't have browser.download.useJSTransfer shown.

Perhaps it's because you're a couple builds behind.

In FF23/24, DS works fine, but broken new FF's DownloadManager

작성: Arpaleggia, 날짜: August 26, 2013 · 고유 주소

Recent versions of FF do not display downloads properly in the download window with this add-on enabled. Even so, this add-on has served me perfectly and I love it. Five-star-worthy.


when after FF's Default Download manager changed. (22 or 23 maybe?)

FF's Default Download manager's download list shows 'download fail'
(when using FF with Download Statusbar)

but still download fine and Download Statusbar show all downloading okay.

Ploblem is when close the browser, Download Statusbar shows 'old style FF's Default Download manager'

and nothing shows in New FF's Default Download manager(in Library section)

i think it's cause of FF's 'Wrong download fail message'
