Unable to download an app I've been using..tried all troubleshoothing, etc.
Using Firefox browser and have been using Yumprint for over a year including the other day. all of a sudden it disappeared after the wonderful, marvelous Firefox update (with all of my recipes, too!). I have been unable to re-install it; have tried troubleshooting, deleting files, Safe Mode and all the various 'solutions'. Does anyone have any idea or should I switch to another browser since, apparently, Firefox really only wants you to use their add-ons/extensions. Thank you!

The Yumprint Recipe Clipper extension is not yet digitally signed by Mozilla, so in Firefox 43, it is disabled. I don't know how soon they will update it, so for the time being, you could make a temporary exception to the signing requirement. This is global for all extensions, there's currently no way to only make an exception for one specific extension.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste xpin and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the xpinstall.signatures.required preference to switch it from true to false -- note that this is for Firefox 43 only

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! After all the things I tried, I was skeptical that this would work but it did! Thanks so much!
