Hello, I use the latest FDM version and I have a problem with ing youtube videos, in 7 June there was not any problem but after 15 June I can't anything from youtube and I get HTTP Error 403, please help.

Hello, this is the most common problem as of late. We are working to fix Youtube compatibility all the time, and it still changes almost regularly.

I have news, some videos can still be ed from youtube it seems. Thanks for trying to fix the youtube problems, they seem to make it worse by the time.

[Clive Sorensson]

Yes, it's a very frustrating thing to work with.

Not sure if anyone else has had my issue, but the FDM extension for Firefox does not seem to be catching any s from Firefox at all. I've got it enabled in desktop application settings, but every time I try to something it defaults to the in-built er. The context menu when right-clicking videos and pictures still works though.

Firefox build? Addon version number? FDM version?

Not trying to be a jerk, but not having that info makes it impossible to either answer your post or to provide helpful hints at what you can try to do to fix it.

FDM doesn't even detect that Firefox is installed and I am using the 32bit version and the addon is present. All it does is tell me to firefox and I end up with a duplicate browser that still does not work. I just uninstall it and find another manager if no one gives me any clear fix
Thanks

FDM version 3.9.7 build 1641 stopped working after I updated Firefox to version 68. Each time this error message pops up when I try to a file:

Code: Select all

Free Manager is not properly installed! Please reinstall Free Manager.

If you want to with your browser please disable FDM extension in it.

Error code: 80080005

I reinstalled FDM, I reinstalled FF, but to no avail. Any help? My OS: Win 7 x64.

It looks like Mozilla updated AMO g procedures and the extension should be re-released with bumped version number to force new digital g. See for example update description for uBlockOrigin here:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.20.2

This release exists only to fulfill a request by Mozilla that I submit a new version even if there is no code change, so as to test changes on the back-end of AMO.

WARNING: New AMO procedures may make extension incompatible with older Firefox builds (especially with Firefox 52.9.0 ESR, the last version for Windows XP). Just guessing, but you should troubles in May…

When new updated extension will be released?
