Introducing the Springpad Firefox Extension

We’re happy to announce the availability of the Springpad Extension for Firefox 4 users! Our latest browser extension complements the Springpad web app & mobile apps by making it easier for you to save and access information while surfing the web.

Install the Springpad Firefox Extension now. (Available for Firefox 4+)

Save information to Springpad without leaving the site you’re on

Quickly save Notes, Tasks or anything else without launching the web app:

  • Type in a Note or Task directly from the extension
  • If you’d like to save something more specific, use Look It Up to help you save it to Springpad – great for books, movies, albums & more!

Use the clipper to easily bookmark any page to read later:

  • Highlight text or images to include in it your bookmark
  • Right-click on a page to save it, without having to launch the extension
  • For supported sites, Springpad will automatically detect and categorize useful details on the page such as a movie, product or recipe

Access your Springpad items without leaving the site you’re on

Use notebooks and tags to organize your stuff:

  • On the extension home screen, hop directly into one of your notebooks to view your stuff by topic
  • Add something new directly into a notebook
  • When you add something new, attach a tag to help you find it later
  • Search by your tag name or click on a tag to find all related items
  • Learn more about using notebooks and tags in Springpad

Access and use your Springpad items from wherever you are on the web:

  • Search, filter and sort to quickly find your stuff
  • Scan your tasks and check off items as you complete them
  • Filter by bookmarks to access articles you saved for later
  • Look up restaurants you’ve saved to quickly access directions, phone numbers and links to menus, reservations and reviews

    Still needs work.

    Can only add tags when clipping a web page and not change the folder of where it (the clip) should go. At this time it appears that the folder needs to be selected prior to clipping.

    [...] Una vez tengamos instalada la extensión tendremos que iniciar sesión con nuestra cuenta de SpringPad, en el caso no tenerla debemos crearnos una en la página oficial, para ello podremos hacerlo de forma estándar o podremos utilizar nuestros perfiles sociales, como explican en su blog oficial.

    I was unable to install the new firefox addon. keep getting an error message – Springpad Extension could not be installed because Firefox can’t modify the needed file. I’m running Firefox 4.0

    Any ideas?

    Um, how long is Springpad going to be down for? The “not available now” screen doesn’t give any hint. Minutes? Hours? All day? I’d like a hint about when I’ll be able to get to my todo list.

    When installing the extension, FF4 reports that it cannot install the extension because Firefox could not modify the needed file. The extension is not installed, and attempts to reinstall it also fail.
    Are you aware of which file FF needs to modify to do the installation, or what the issue could be? Thanks.

    Why would you release a crippled add-on? Being able to select the folder and having the ability to key in tags seem to be vital functions of using Springpad. I understand that Firefox is preventing your add-on from working correctly. Still, it gives the impression that Springpad is more concerned with getting things out the door than with having them work right to begin with.

    An update… I also use Portable Apps which has a portable version of FF4 and the installation worked flawlessly on it…
    I have the same FF4 extensions on both copies of FF4.
    As reported elsewhere by others, I have the same configuration information as them and have the same username in both instances of my installations.
    Thanks again for a great product, and hopefully a solution to this problem.

    Further update: I captured the following error during the install process from the FF4 error console:

    Warning: WARN addons.xpi: Failed to install: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) [nsIZipReader.extract]” nsresult: “0×80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)” location: “JS frame :: resource://gre/modules/XPIProvider.jsm :: extractFiles :: line 865″ data: no]

    Hope it is of some use in isolating the problem…

    Hey guys – We have fixed the issue with installing the Firefox extension. The problem was due to the length of the directory name where the extension is saved for many Windows users. If you were having issues, follow the link in the post above to try it out.

    This also means that for those of you who installed the extension last week, you’ll need to re-install. Please follow these steps:
    – Remove the Springpad extension from your browser
    – Go here & download the extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/springpad/
    – Log in with your Springpad username & password

    If you are continuing to have issues, please send us details at feedback@springpartners.com or post your issue to our support forum here: http://getsatisfaction.com/springpartners/topics/cant_install_springpad_firefox_extension

      Hi Jay – You’ll need to log in at Springpadit.com, click on Settings & set up a username & password. Then use that info to log in on the extension.

    One small request with the extension…

    Can you please make it so it recognizes if I’ve already logged in to the website, or make is so common password managers can recognize the login fields?

    I’m currently logged in to the website, but when I click the extension I have to log in again…seems overly burdensome, especially when I don’t know my Springpad password b/c I use a password manager.

    Other than that, it works great. Thanks!

    Based on feedback, I created a new login ID & password on the springpadit.com site. I still cannot log in to the extension using either the new springpadit.com user account or my usual Gmail account login.

    This extension is too confusing to set up – without support for Gmail logins, it’s a pain. Sorry.

    Hi Katin,
    @ 27. Clearing the cache didn’t help anything. Perhaps it has something to do with my german version of FF?
    I opened the error console and found about 60 warnings (in german), most of them:

    “Unknown property ‘(xyz…)’. Declaration ignored.
    resource://ext-at-sprng-dot-me-springpad-data/css/springpad.css
    Line (abc)

    e.g.

    Warnung: Unbekannte Eigenschaft ‘transform’. Deklaration ignoriert.
    resource://ext-at-sprng-dot-me-springpad-data/css/springpad.css
    Zeile: 276

    Should I post it here or send you by mail?

      If anyone is having trouble with the Firefox extension (blank window), it was due to the extension caching a broken connection during our downtime 2 weeks ago. Here’s what to do: Remove the Firefox extension, clear your browser cache, then reinstall the Firefox extension. That should fix it!

    It seems to me (and maybe I’m crazy) that you can neither move this extension from it’s default position, nor use it in text (as opposed to icon) view.

    Kinda borks it for those of us that use text view for our bars.

    Extension removed
    Firefox restarted
    Cache cleared (625 MB down to 0MB!)
    Extension reinstalled
    still a blank window
    Firefox restarted
    still a blank window

    About the bug that hank noticed in the first comment that the staff mentioned could not be fixed until mozilla fixed their own bug:

    I stumbled on a workaround that is a little faster than always having to go to the springpad site to change notebooks.

    If you want to add the clipping to a notebook, first click on the springpad extension icon, as if you are going to explore your springpad notebooks from the extension, then click on the home button (the little house icon), click the notebook you are about to add the clipping to. then click on the little scissors.

    the extension will add the clipping to the last notebook you accessed.

    this sounds longer than it really is, btw.

    Just started with Springpad and I like the Firefox Extension thing. I use tags a lot especially for bookmarks. When using the extension it just lists the bookmarks for me – I see I can sort them but I really would like to be able to select a tag without typing it in the search box. Am I missing something or can you consider this as a future enhancement please? A “Tags” dropdown like the “select a type” box would be great.

    Thank you brittni, but the extension has not worked after clering
    cache, cookies in firefox and rebooting it…

    BTW, it is interesting and helpful that the web clipper in the
    bookmark works perfectly… Oh, may it be the cause?

    OK, I tried … YES, the extension works now!!

    I did the following procedures and there may be meaningless ones.

    1. I removed the web clipper in bookmark.
    2. I cleared the cache of firefox just in case.
    3. I reboot the firefox in safe mode (= no use add-ons), to ensure
    the removing and clearing. We can do this operation from the
    help in firefox.
    4. I reboot the firefox in normal mode.
    5. The extension works!!

    I hope this helps similar users and programmers in our
    lovely Springpad!!

    Hi, Andrew.
    Today I installed the extension into my new PC and it didn’t work!!
    (Of course I did the procedures in #45, but they didn’t help)

    Mh… I think that the extension has some critical bugs because I experienced this problem on 2 PCs (I have no problem on 3 PCs and it means that about 40% PCs have this problem :-)

    This problem is critical for me, so I will use Springpad for more one or two weeks and decide to continue to use it or move to other services…

    Firefox 7.0.1 fails to install the Springpad extension with an error saying it wasn’t the add-on that it expected. please help… or I’m stuck with Chrome which feels so much slower than the new Firefox.

      Jay – There was a issue with installing many popular extensions in Firefox 7 over the past few days. Please clear your browser cache & try again today (Mozilla has put in a fix).

    Breaks on Firefox 9.

    Blank window appears.

    Cleared cache. Removed. Re-installed. No fix, yet.

    This looks like a super cool extension, but… I use Mozilla’s Sea Monkey browser and was wondering if there were any plans to provide an extension version that would be compatible?

    Thanks lots!

    Hi,

    Maybe releated to wtf’s post:

    I don’t understand why the clipped page is saved as an image and not as a HTML note?

    - viewing a web page through an image is less user-firendly than inside a browser
    - you can’t edit text content of saved note
    - image only captures the visible portion of page!

    I posted the question on getsatisfaction.com yesterday: http://getsatisfaction.com/springpartners/topics/capture_web_page_as_html

    I’m using FF9B2 and am not having any issues with SpringPad. Maybe there is a conflict with other extensions, Java or .net?

    John, I’m not sure what is up with your bitter and derisive tone. Millions of satisfied customers can’t be wrong. I think it’s just you.

    It would be nice if you could add a bookmark as an attachment to an existing note.

    Springpad looks good… but the extension in FF 7 is not working. I have to reload the extension every time I restart FF.

      Hi Owen – If you can, try updating to the latest version, Firefox 9. We have recently submitted a fix to the extension in FF9 and are awaiting approval from Firefox, so it should be up and running soon. Otherwise, try un- then re-installing Firefox 7, and see if that helps. If not, feel free to email feedback@springpartners.com for more support!

    Hi, Neither the Clipper nor the extension work in Firefox 9. This is very frustrating. There is also nothing in the Context Menu when I right click. When can we expect a fix?

    I can confirm that, for me, it works in FF10.

    Also the extension loads a nice optional toolbar.

    Hi Devin, the FF extension new version 2.5.1112.25 works well even on the FF 11.02a! I’m very glad because older extensions have not worked.
    Thank you!!!

    Why isn’t there any way to tell it which folder to put something in now? Also, on FF9 the Springit button is white on white, so unreadable. And there needs to be a way to move the icon to where we want it, like we can with all other FF icons.

    I can verify what Melisa said about the inability to choose what folder you’re clipping an item into using the FF extension.
    I also noticed that clicking the “View and Edit in SpringPad” button (when looking at a specific item in the extension) takes me to my Springpad home (top level), vice taking me to the item for editing.
    Both of these are rather annoying. Not sure what Melisa is talking about wrt the Springit button, as mine seems fine.

    For various reasons I switched from Firefox to Seamonkey as my primary browser. As a result, my interaction with Springpad has decreased. It would be really nice if you could at least “unofficially” support Seamonkey — it may only take a small tweak to the current addon to make it compatible…

    Quit Springpad because of the extension to FF bug (no context menu)
    Now with QuickFox…much easier and less clutter and less clicks !

      Hi Curasam – I’m sorry you are having problems. We were experiencing issues with the FF extension, but it has since been fixed. What problems are you experiencing right now? I can help! :)
