I'm using Selenium_IDE 2.9.1 in Firefox v52

I visited https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
to install the latest Selenium IDE (v 2.9.1) in Firefox.
My Firefox version is 54 (64-bit)
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 14393)
But unfortunately "Add to Firefox" button was shown disabled on the site https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
On that site NOTE was found as:
Note: Selenium IDE will NOT work on Firefox version 55 onwards. Please stay on Firefox version 54 or older.
What can I do to install Selenium IDE on FF 54?
Sad but true, It is no secret by now that Selenium IDE will be deprecated. In fact, it has already stopped working since Firefox 55. Here are some potential replacements that you may consider applying to your project:
Robot Framework
Katalon Studio
Protractor
TestProject
Good luck and Good bye Legend.
I think Firefox is not supported Selenium IDE after 53 or 54 version, I have read that blog
https://seleniumhq.wordpress.com/2017/08/09/firefox-55-and-selenium-ide/
Firefox 55 doesn't support Selenium IDE 2.9.1. FF 54 and less are OK.
Installation Selenium IDE on FF 54:
1. Open Firefox 54 and visit https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
2. Click "Download Anyway" link to download (In my case, it was selenium_ide-2.9.1-fx.xpi)
Open .xpi file you download in Firefox 54 -> Click Install and then Restart Now according to following interface:
I faced the similar issues few weeks ago.Firefox version 55 doesn't support Selenium IDE. You need to downgrade your Firefox browser to Firefox version 54, 53 or below.
For doing so, please refer the link below
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-older-version-of-firefox
Also, you need to delete all your old firefox data before installing older version because it might not work if you don't do so.
Then finally you can add Selenium IDE and it works fine.
I need to run Firefox 54 with Selenium but, like the others on this question, wasn't able to easily install Selenium. I did find a way to do this without going to a 3rd party site by copying the XPI download link (just right click on the disabled Add to Firefox button in the Firefox Add-ons page and copy the location), downloading it within Chrome or another browser, and finally just drag and drop the XPI into Firefox. That worked for me, hope this helps someone else.
Ironically, the best versions of selenium and Firefox that work better, powerful and with more options (according to my experience), are those, Firefox 54.0.1 and selenium 2.9.1. Despite they are deprecated. So I understand well your question and need.
Here you have a trick to install that Selenium version in that Firefox version, getting away the inactive add-on button:
Download manually the selenium version 2.9.1 (as a file) and then add it manually through "Install Add-on from file" in Firefox in the section "Extensions".
This is the link to download selenium 2.9.1:

I tried to install Selenium IDE in Firefox but unable to install. Please help me. My Firefox version: 47.0.2 while install IDE button is disabled please help me.
You just need to restart as suggested in your screenshot. If that doesn't helps, install the latest version of firefox in your computer.
Also, in case, if you require how to do so, following link provides detailed steps to download and install selenium ide.

Using Mars.2 Release (4.5.2) and Firefox 47.0 to run my selenium code but every time I hit run I am getting this
StackTrace:
"Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException:
Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure."
Firefox 47.0 came out recently and to use it a new driver must be used that is made by Mozilla instead of by Selenium. See Marionette Driver
Download this driver and make sure the executable file is in your system path. Now you need to change your program so that it uses this driver by setting a desired capability:
dc = DesiredCapabilities.FIREFOX
dc['marionette'] = True
driver = webdriver.Firefox(capabilities=dc)
Downgrade your firefox version to FF 46.0 as the FF 47.0 has no support for webdriver. once you downgrade the Firefox go and disable the auto upgrade option by following the below mentioned steps:
Open firefox: Press F10 > Tools > options
Go to the Advanced tab
Navigate to the Update tab
Uncheck the option 'Use a background service to install update'
Uncheck 'Automatically install updates (recommended: improved security)' and click ok
I recently upgraded to Chromedriver 2.15
Now, when I click a link to a pdf file it is auto-downloading instead of displaying in a new tab as before.
<a id="my_pdf_file" format="pdf" target="_blank" href="/my_pdf_file.pdf">My PDF File</a>
Is there a way to resume the old behavior of displaying the pdf in a new tab?
This is currently an open issue with Chrome, not Chromedriver:
Unable to open a PDF file in chrome since upgrading to v 42.0.2311.90
At some point between M41 and M42, the behavior of the --test-type switch was changed so that PDFs are downloaded instead of displayed.
I updated to the latest version of the dev branch of Chrome 44.0.2391.0 dev-m (64 bit), ran a test in Selenium that opens a PDF, and can confirm that PDFs are opening in new tabs by default.
This was tested using the following:
Chrome 44.0.2391.0 dev-m (64 bit)
Selenium 2.45
Chrome Driver 2.15
So, you can either use the dev version of Chrome until the release version catches up, try one of the workarounds in the link above, or wait with the knowledge that it will get fixed soon.
This is how you define a Chrome profile with Watir
This is the chromedriver capabilities page
I don't see right off the way to enable/disable the Chrome PDF viewer (chrome://plugins/)
But, you can set up your own profile - see the 'Use custom profile' section.
I just installed the Selenium IDE plugin into Firefox 32 using the "Get Add-ons" feature. When I click on the Selenium button, I get an alert box that says: "You don't have installed Selenium IDE".
Has anyone else ever encountered this problem, and if so, do you know how to solve it?
Bro please do not add selenium addon from firefox as there is selenium IDE 1.2.0 available
as this is a bug in firefox 32, so you have to manually download the addon for firefox 32
go to this website: http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ and download Selnenium IDE 2.8.0 version , it will work.Apart from that if you have more questions please write it down on the same thread, i will be very happy to answer them.
