Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Extension Compatibility, defect)

Description

[Frank Jones]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11

I use many add-on extensions but after upgrading to Firefox 2.0.0.11 they will not work. I tried to upgrade some extensions but the menus under "tools" tells me that "the add on will be upgraded after Firefox restart." But that doesn't happen. The Pronto shopping manager and the Google Toolbar for Firefox are the only extensions that are currently working like before the upgrade.
