Everything seems to be running fine.
Good job - Google Team! :)
Anybody knows how to re-enable translation for a language?
- The translate bar compresses itself badly if viewed in a window with small width.
- The bookmarks bar (at least on Mac) looks pretty messed up with now incorrect widths, and too large spacing, as well as some strange bookmark text centering going on.
Oops, forgot to mention that the issues above with the bookmarks bar applies to folders with bookmarks in them on the bookmarks bar.
- If closing a tab next to your active tab (I tried closing a tab just before the active tab, but it may not matter) that has the translate bar opened, the translate bar disappears from your active tab.
Google Chrome now crashes whenever I try to launch Gmail.
It also crashes for me whenever I try to open Gmail.
Actually, it appears that google gears crashes this version of chrome, because I can now view gmail and my calendar with it disabled.
Brian, what is your version of Gears from about:plugins ?
Could be related to issues:
http://bugs.chromium.org/37035
http://bugs.chromium.org/37281
http://bugs.chromium.org/37432
Gmail seems to work fine for me.
First of all: great release, thanks! Translate bar is welcome!
On Mac, when a folder is put to the bookmark bar and I open it the displayed list is messed-up. (huge paddings, centered labels)
please add sorting by name at bookmarks -.-
Version 4 and 5 and Chrom is unable for the basics.
Serious bug -
Inserting multiple rows into the Web Database is broken. This bug was introduced with the last dev build (3.0.335.0) and still persists. I entered the bug here - http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=36862
This is breaking my extension and most likely any web app the is using Web Database.
Problems with folders in bookmarks bar in Mac.
thanks for the release,
chrome just crash every time when i go to igoogle with latitude google gear install ....
but i guess it is more like the google gear's problem?
if you want for the native translator to be themed please star issue:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=37300
great release!!
Gmail crash. I can't see my email =/
What can I do?
Google Gears crashes always in this release...
For those where gmail, docs or any gears related web app now crashes:
A quick fix is to remove your offline gears data.
Remove the specific folder as defined here:
http://gears.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=79850
Remember, this will remove your offline data AND disable gears for all web apps. But you will be able to get back into gmail, docs etc.
To Access Gmail
just Go To Settings> Gears then find
for gmail.com, mail.google.com etc and disable it. dont remove it. gmail will work! dont delete folders it will create problems. when gears fixed enable those things again. Thats all!!!
The "Pin tabs function" is back, yes, but is not flexible/handy as before, in version 4... This must be reviewed and improved, I think.
Otherwise, thanks to you for this version !
Mine google crashes everytime i open Google.com
We're working on a fix for the crash with Gears (gadgets that use latitude on iGoogle, offline Docs or Gmail, etc).
If all goes well, we'll release the update tomorrow (Pacific Time, GMT +8).
Thanks for using the Dev channel, and thanks for being patient. We really appreciate the feedback, and we are listening (even if we can't respond to everything immediately).
Thank you Mark Larson ! :) I forgot to say that the translate bar is very useful, but a little annoying... It would be better if it would be more customizable (more options to control it), in my advice.
Have a good day ! :)
chrome keeps crashing when loading gmail. :(
Still no Pin tab in Linux :(
Youtube (HTML) doesn't play after this update.
gmail does not operate at all.
i'm so confused.
There's still a RTL bug when deleting letters.
Please, do take care of it.
Moreover, It would be nice to have an option to disable the Translation Bar.
please integrate a way to disable the new translation bar.. thx
Finaly I now can hoover over my folders in the bookmark bar (in OS X) and they automatically opens. Thanks!
On Windows, you can disable translation feature completely by un-checking
"Offer to translate pages that aren't in a language I read" checkbox.
That's located in [Options] > [Under the Hood] > [Translate].
a lot of common people does not look in the under the hood section, so we need a direct way to disable it, as example in the native translator bar add an option: never translate web pages.
I think that the name 'under the hood' scares a lot of people to look in that options explecially in some languages: in italian is translated to 'roba da smanettoni' that is something like: hacker stuff. i find it really stupid considering the basilar functionality that are inside that group of options...
Chrome crashes when you try to upload a file to google documents. This is NOT related to the gears issue many mention above
Chrome on Gmail crashes too, fixed by deleting gears entries for gmail.com, googlemail, google.com/mail.
So no more offline access to my mails...
thumbnail quantity customization feature is needed.
chrome should study some cool features in opera
Congratulations, Chrome/Chromium Team. A lot of very important issues have been done for the Mac this time. The only UI-features still missing are the ordering of browser actions, the dragging and dropping with the mouse of URL's in the omnibar into the folders and subfolders of the bookmarks bar where the user wants them to belong and the dragging and dropping of bookmarks between folders and subfolders of the
bookmarks bar (reordering function). These are features that exist in the Windows-version since a long time.
In any case: many thanks for this version for the Mac: There is finally a good handling of cleaning and of handling of cookies, also I can now "open all bookmarks" from a subfolder (FINALLY!!!!!!).
Love Chrome.
On my Mac, not able to scroll and see all of my bookmarks in folder on bookmark bar. Otherwise great!!
Damn...chrome crashes the moment I launch GMAIL with offline enabled..
You are absolutely right, Kirk, on your comment for the Mac for not able to see all the bookmarks. I have the same problem. I have a lot of bookmarks organized in folders and subfolders in the bookmarks bar. The space(length) for a bookmark-URL in the list is not sufficient and also the spacing between two bookmarks in the bookmarkslist in e.g a subfolder of a folder of the bookmarks bar is too wide. Spacing and length should be like in the Windows version of Chrome and like in the previous Mac version.
@Vellknown
Same for me. Crash in Gmail offline with latest update of Chrome. I've switched temporarily to Firefox for reading/writing my e-mail on-line.
Hi!
Since new version was released I have a little problem with Chrome. I was put AutoFill to disable. Actually it always was like that. Unfortunately chrome remind me previous logins which was use on a websites . I tried to change seetings but nothing changed.
Do you guys not read the posting about each release before downloading??

Google Chrome Crashes when trying to open Gmail offline (issue: 37035)
--------------------
It's a KNOWN issue!
Unfortunately, atari52oo, most of this current "ME" generation, immediate satisfaction young-uns don't bother to read important stuff like titles nor the posting for each release. So sad..... I know......
I have a issue. Extensions move. Like I have 3 extensions showing (LiveChrome,Chromed Bird and goo.gl url shortner.) and have about 5 in the drop-down-box. But every so often when I use my computer and launch chrome. They move. So the order gets messed p. And I always get a different order showing. Really annoying. This is not present in Chromium or Beta/Stable channels
Autofill seems to be occuring when the option is disabled since this last update....
AutoFill (AutoComplete) issue: http://crbug.com/36640
@Atari52oo
Updates are automatic. The note is read after the update, usually. After the crash I decided to read the comments of other users to find possible solutions before the patch, for not to be forced to use Firefox in alternative. Now the latest patch has solved the problem with Gmail offline (in less than 24 hours!)
In the future I will read the notes before commenting on things already known, but for me it's always good to read and confirm the problem to the developers (many voices are better than one). Imho.
@ krtulmay
The evidence of problem was only for feedback and not for "immediate satisfaction of young'uns generation". In the future I will avoid to report my feedback. Thanks.
Hello, I am running Google Chrome Dev Channel 5.0.342.2.
Since yesterday I have had the problem of Chrome crashing whenever I try to access Google Calendar (this is my major concern as I use it a lot), secondly, my extensions seem to have disappeared all together.
As recommended I checked my Gears settings, but I don't have permission set for 'calendar.google.com'.
Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
My google chrome, when i try updating it or checking for the latest version it LAGS, and slows down magnificently, I it never does update, it take so long for it to check for updates.
It is very useful, but annoying at times. When you are on a foreign language website, on each page there is the drop down which moves the whole page even if we put translate automatically, a few more options would be nice..
I am also unable to turn off Form Autofill. Even when disabled, it still saves and suggests form entries.
I unable to turn off Form Autofill, too. It's annoying
I do not disable Autofill option.
Is it possible to delete on Mac dev version all the bookmarks (thru bookmarks menu) from bookmarks bar and just make "Other Bookmarks" folder appear like Chrome for Windows?
The bookmarks bar looks pretty messed up too on my Mac..
Keep up the good work!
vs 5.0.342.1 dev Noted a new behaviour. Links opened in a new tab appear to process but result in a tab with no content. Content appears after "Reload this Page" is selected.
Chrome- 5.0.342.3 version is being used by me.
Issues are:
1) Under the autofill option I filled in an address which I wish to remove/ edit- how do I do that?
2) Chrome saves all login IDs despite Autofill being turned off. How do I prevent Chrome from doing this?
3) In IE I can very easily locate my favorites- is difficult to do so under Chrome and even if I know where the favorites are stored it is not in readable format.
Can you please help?
Thanks in advance.
Gears?
Why didn't they call it Phlatt Tyre?
This has been the most frustrating and (relatively) useless P.O.S. yet~
