From that link: " You’ll then need to install the standalone Zotero application to access your data. Going forward, instead of clicking a “Z” button in the Firefox toolbar, you’ll open Zotero like any other program on your computer. "
Thanks, Adam. I did that. I'm in disbelief that the button is gone. "Hate" is a strong word. Please tell your supervisors I "Hate" this change. It makes the work so inconvenient. One of the main reasons I chose Zotero, was the ability to use the split screen when up searching and pulling citations from Google Scholar and elsewhere. I have recommended countless graduate students and researchers to your product. I will not recommend one more person. I am very upset by this change. If others are expressing their dismay behind this ridiculous and not well thought out change, please add my message to that pile. Very, very bad change.
Mozilla is discontinuing the powerful extension framework on which Zotero for Firefox is based in favor of a new, more limited extension framework, and it’s no longer technically possible to create a tool like Zotero for Firefox within the browser.

Please provide a more substantive response. I downloaded 5.0. and the Connector. Nothing is "connecting"
The "Z" is gone.
" You’ll then need to install the standalone Zotero application to access your data. Going forward, instead of clicking a “Z” button in the Firefox toolbar, you’ll open Zotero like any other program on your computer. "
I'm not sure how to rephrase that more clearly?
