Get your addons working with Firefox 3 beta

In my search to get Google Tool bar working with Firefox 3 I stumbled across this utility called Nightly Tester Tools. It allows you to run out of date extensions/add ons with current versions of Firefox even if its not officially supported. To get this working just do the following.

  • Goto here and click Install (v1.3b3)
  • Make sure firefox has permission to install and do so.
  • Restart Firefox
  • Go to Tools > Add ons
  • Click on the add on you want to get working
  • Click " Make all compatible ".


Voila. You're set. Now since you're forcing the add on to work that doesn't mean it's gonna be fully functional. Google Tool bar doesn't work all the way. It doesn't recognize that you're logged in even if you are so thus it won't load your bookmarks.
