Created attachment 782400 [details] log Description of problem: The extension gnome-shell-extension-places-menu-3.8.3-2.fc19 does not run for me at all, so I do not have a "places" menu in classic mode (GNOME 3.8). I added the journal log and the ovious fix is to replace "j" by "i" in line 312 of /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/places-menu.github.com/placeDisplay.js I added the small patch as well. Easy to fix.
