Your browser has the ebay toolbar disabled in add-ons. To enable goto tools, manage add-ons, enable or disable, then enable.

Hope this helps

i checked and no problem

make sure the boxes are ticked in advanced tools options, which say, except third party browser extentions!
I had the same problem.
I`ve now got the toolbar but if i sign in for advanced features it signs me in but still cant customize the toolbar. It worked before i had firefox but now i`ve gone back to ie8 as im useing windows7 i just cant customize it????????????????????????????????

Hi there
I too am having problems with the ebay alert toolbar. It worked fine yesterday but despite all my best efforts (uninstalling and re-installing several times, rebooting my computer, checking and unchecking my add-ons etc) nothing helped. The icon on my task bar, bottom right-hand corner is now grey-scaled (instead of coloured) and everytime I try to sign in for ebay alerts it signs me out. Also the little coloured icons on the top task bar have disappeared....I only have one (My eBay) and the words 'Sign in for advanced features'...and when I do try to sign in for advanced features it just signs me out again! And then I get a little alert at the bottom telling me I have signed out of ebay toolbar......doh!
I phoned ebay support (25 mins at premium rates......mmmm!) but they pretended to have a word with some techy guy and then came back and said they had no problems at their end and weren't aware of anyone else having any problems.....How very annoying - some help/support they were! BTW - I am on Windows XP using IE8. I don't think this has anything to do with the problem however because I have been on XP & IE8 for months and up until this evening had no problems whatsoever. Anyone have any ideas????

Count me in, I finally downloaded the toolbar after about a year and new OS. The options button did nothing and every time I signed in the toolbar it would just ask me to sign in again.

So regretfully I deleted it after a few wasted hours searching/reading for a solution and finding none.

Has anybody heard anything new from support ? Don't like that Yahoo garbage in there but I miss the eBay alerts!

Scratch that. Toolbar worked till I signed out then I couldn't sign back in. After an hour and a half on the phone with support I got nowhere. Wish that gal that helped me yesterday was on. Guess I'll wait till they fix it or get a working one.
