The 'Pin It' button for pinterest has disappeared from my toolbar and I am not having any success adding it back on.. Having recent issues with Adobe Flash, I reset Firefox settings and that's probably when it was removed. In an attempt to simply add it again, I tried searching for it as an option in the Firefox 'get add-ons', but cannot find it--which I find unusual because it's a very popular add-on.

I tried to add it from the Pinterest, following their specific instructions for Firefox, but if it has been successfully installed, I cannot find it on the toolbar and it does not appear in the 'additional tools and features' that I navigate to via the 'customize' option.

The pin-it button can be found at https://about.pinterest.com/en/goodies

Note that it is not currently signed, and since you are using Firefox Beta it won't run. Either install Firefox Release or disable add-on signing (which will go away in 4 weeks so I'd suggest using release.

The latest Pinterest button is signed, so there shouldn't be a problem.

Can I ask what you mean by 'signed'? Also, how do you know I am using Firefox beta?

The current release is Firefox 40 and Firefox 41 is the current beta version. The System Detail list shows that you use Firefox 41.

You can check the application section on the "Help > Troubleshooting Information" page to see the update channel and the current version number.
