With every new release of Firefox--like the release of Firefox 2 Beta 2 comes the question, "How do I make my old extensions work with the new version?" Some extensions which Mozilla is now calling Add-ons--made for older versions of Firefox really don't work with the newer features and can cause problems, but for the majority of add-ons, all that's needed is basically the flip of a switch. Of course, that switch is hidden deep in the add-on's code, but Nightly Tester Tools makes it possible to flip that switch with just a couple clicks.

Watch this short tutorial video showing how to use Nightly Tester Tools to make most of your old add-ons work with the latest version of Firefox.
