Zotero in firefox stops working and need to be reinstalled every now and then.
I am using the Zotero 4.0.20 standard lone together with the latest firefox (Firefox 29.0.1) plugin.
As the title indicates. My problem is that the firefox plugin works for a while and then stops working. Stop working means, when you visit a paper website, there will be no "Save to Zetero" icons in the address bar. This problem can be solved by reinstalling the firefox plugin and restarting firfox.
So that I have to reinstall Zotero plugin for firefox approximate twice a month, and sometime, once every week. This is really annoying.
Does anyone has the same problem? Can the developers please investigate the issue?

The firefox plugin works for a while and then stops working.
Now zotero firefox plugin can not show the add to Zotero icon for any journal sites.

I have never changed my firefox setting.
And the firefox Zotero plugin worked initially for a round a month and then stoped working.
I will have to reinstall firefox Zotero plugin. And it will work for another one month I suppose.
Really weird problem.
I am using:
Zotero 4.0.21.2 stand-alone together with
Firefox (Firefox 30.0, Zotero plugin 4.0.21.5) plugin.

No paper page works for me now and Just name one page url: http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1000533
OS: Windows XP Sp3
Does it work in Firefox with Standalone closed?
I do not think this is the cause of the problem. Because, my Firefox privacy setting has always been "Never remember history", and the Zotero firefox plugin worked for around a month under the same setting ("Never remember history").
I think you are right. I just tried to close firefox and Zotero standalone and restart them all.
And now zotero firefox plugin works. :)
A surprise. Anyway that half solved my problem. :) Now I only need to restart my Firefox and Zotero every now and then when Zotero stops working. It is still a problem I feel. It would be good if you investigate further.
Thanks.
I normally do not close my Firefox and Zotero standalone at all. I do not shutdown the computer but only let it hibernate with Firefox and Zotero left open.
