FoxClocks 2

FoxClocks 2 is now available for download at addons.mozilla.org. Feature requests, bug reports and general gossip are very welcome in the comments, but if you’re having a problem, please check the FoxClocks FAQ and search the comments below for a solution before posting. Thanks!

Here’s what’s new in FoxClocks 2:

  • Keep up-to-date: automatic time zone database updates
  • Behind a firewall? update automatically from your LAN
  • Choose the right time zone more easily: new Zone Picker
  • Show your clocks in the statusbar/toolbar, just in a tooltip (mouseover), or both
  • Style your clocks: bold, italic, etc
  • Set your clocks to change colour: e.g. make your clocks green from 9 to 5 local time
  • Sort your clocks by name or local time
  • Move your FoxClocks settings between computers

Let us know what you think.

    I have been using the FoxClocks extension until an update of Firefox to 9.0.1 installed today. Now I don’t see the clocks in any of my Toolbars and when I checked preferences it only shows the Zonepicker (left) and the three clocks that I had previously used (right) but no positional buttons to locate which toolbar to display the clocks in.

    Bonjour et Meilleurs Voeux pour 2012.

    Merci pour cet excellent outil.

    Pouvez vous, s’il vous plaît, mettre les Samoa à la bonne date ?

    Cordialement,

    Suggestion: add the different time zones to the Zone Picker.

    I would like to search for ‘PST’ in the Zone Picker search box and automatically find it, instead of manually going through ‘Pacific’, then ‘Countries’, then scrolling down until I find a corresponding island.

    Reason is: I know a meeting will start at 10h PST. I would like to add this time zone to my foxclocks in order to know when to dial into the meeting.

    GMT/UTC is already presented in the list, could all other time zones be added there as well?

    I just installed 2.9.35 and it is great, I just love it.
    If I use the custom format, I can click all options but nothing is changing,
    it always displace the same, on change

    I have using Foxclocks on Firefox on Ubuntu 10.10. Since the last update or so of foxclocks, I am unable to change the display to the menu or to 24 hour format. I can select these choices, but there is no button to click that would effect the changes. So, after making the changes, I close the window and no action ensues.

    All works fine on my Mac and Win XP machines.

    I use Thunderbird for business. FoxClocks is really useful so I can see the time in 5 different zones whenever I send an email or just want to check before calling someone. Very good software.
    2 things which could be better:
    1) when setting up I found the search un-intuitive. I would like to search by City e.g. Delhi, New York, San Francisco – and get the time zone automaticaly
    2) I want to see my local date, but not the date in other time zones. Would be nice to have way to set date on/off clock-by-clock, not globally across all clocks
