disappearing capture icon
Hello. I have found some similar things in other forum discussions, but not exactly what I'm experiencing, so I'm starting this one.
For some reason, usually after my computer goes to sleep and then reawakens (I think), the capture icons disappear from the URL box in Firefox, even when I'm visiting specific places like amazon.com and the NY Times where they typically work. I open and close the browser several times, and sometimes the icons reappear and sometimes they do not. Do you have any idea why they are disappearing in the first place and what I can do to keep that from happening?
Thanks.

if none of them help obviously, we'd want the info under 11 the next time that happens, but in addition to the error report ID, provide a debug ID that covers reloading that page (instructions on how to do both of these things linked to from that page).

And to answer the question Dan Stillman asked, the Zotero for Firefox pane does close when I open Standalone (and Standalone does jump to the front).
Does this problem happen if Standalone is completely closed and you're using the full Zotero pane in Firefox, or is it only if you're using both Standalone and Zotero for Firefox in connector mode?
Can you reproduce this reliably? That is, can you put your computer to sleep and reproduce the problem?
If I open Firefox without Standalone and use the Zotero pane in Firefox only, things work as they should (capture icons are present).
If I open Firefox first, and then Standalone, things work as they should.
If I open Standalone before opening Firefox, the problem occurs (there are no icons in the Firefox address box).
If I open Firefox first, and then Standalone, things work as they should until I close Firefox. If Standalone remains open, and I reopen Firefox, the problem occurs.
This is the pattern each time I run through these options, so it appears to be very reproducible so far.
If I open Standalone first, then open Firefox, then close Standalone, the problem persists, even if I refresh the page in Firefox.
I have Windows 8.1 and Firefox 29.0.1.

We'll have to see if Simon has any ideas here, since this is more his department. Post here again if you haven't heard anything in a few days. In the meantime, you can of course use Zotero for Firefox with Standalone closed.
Thanks.
So just after I posted (about a minute ago), I recalled that there was a Zotero update yesterday. I tried things again, and it seems that the issue has been fixed!
I will let you know if the issue reoccurs in the future.
Thanks.
