Jen described the exact same problem I am having. Gears installs, Firefox or Safari reboot (having the same problem in each) and Gears shows up in Add-ons under preferences. Only, Google doesn't recognize it as installed. For instance, when in gmail and I go to activate the offline reader, it will say that I need to be running google gears and directs me back to the install page. Stuck in this loop. Uninstalling gears doesn't work. I'm frustrated because I had it working with no problem for several months. Not sure what changed or got updated that changed this but I don't seem to be the only one.
