  1. GUtil doesn’t work with the new Firefox. :(
    I hope a new version can be launched very soon.

    GUtil doesn’t work with the new 3.05 version Firefox.
    (:

    Regretably, I’m disabling it. I’m using FF 3.0.7. The GUtil menu displays every item even tho’ I’ve checked only about a dozen items in the Options. Also, the GUtil button doesn’t display irrespective of whether it’s checked in the Options.

    I finally had the time to release a new version.
    I fixed some issues, cleared some services and removed the pt-BR translation because it was buggy.

    The extension is in the sandbox now, it will be out in a few days tops.

    Regards,
    Bogdan

    Thanks Bogdan, this last version works well for me again. my system was’t working in the last two because of pt-BR.

    I wil leave a suggestion for next version, google has a link direct to Google Contact Manager: http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager

    Gandalf.

    Following my comment on 27 March, I downloaded the latest version and re-enabled the extension. Unfortunately, it still displays the whole (very long) list of utilities even tho’ I’ve set the Options to display only a a few of them. So regretably, I’ve disabled it again.

    will you update it to make it work with firefox 3.5?

  23. Bogdan says:

    Hello,

    It’s been working with Firefox 3.5 since July 2nd.
    The guys at AMO didn’t approve it yet.

    You can bypass the check by installing from:

    Hello,I’m a crazzzzzzzy Gfan.
    I’m so interseted in the servises google supported and I checked almost every items. Of course the menu list is too looooong.It’s very inconvenient to use Reader and Translator because the items are in alphabetical order .

    Maybe let user decide the order of the items is more effective.
    Another approach is that if thre’re too many items just show them in two columus insted of the scroll button.

    I’m a Chinese user ,my english is poor.
    THX :-)

  25. Bogdan says:

    Hello,

    Ordering and grouping will be in the next major version – when I’ll have some free time to code it.

    You can hide the items from the options menu until then.

    BR,
    Bogdan

    Just reporting an error in GUtil. When you select the “Dice” menu item, you get the following:

    The requested URL /history/items?op=rec_rd&cd=ifb&hl=en was not found on this server.

  29. William says:

    Do you intend to update this extension to be compatible with Firefox 3.6?

  30. Bogdan says:

    Hello,

    No, I’m actually not going to update GUtil! anymore.
    I don’t have the time or the patience to do it.

    Whoever wants to pick up can do it.
    You can read http://www.gridpulse.com/2010/02/22/the-uncertain-future-of-gutil/.

    Sorry,
    Bogdan
