Why are my Add-ons not showing in the Add-on bar ?

I have downloaded some Add-ons, but when I open the Add-on bar at the bottom of the page, it's empty !? Where are they ?

An add-on can put its icon on the bar automatically if it likes, but some add-ons do one of the following:

  • Add an item to the Tools menu
  • Add an item to the right-click menu (depending on the context)
  • Put a button in the button palette so you can add it to a toolbar if you like (to call up the button palette, use View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a blank area after the address box on the Navigation Toolbar and choose Customize from the pop-up menu)

Also, you might want to double-check that the add-on is enabled.

Tools > Add-ons > Extensions

If you have the orange Firefox button, it's Firefox > Add-ons > Extensions

Does that help? (If you have problems with a particular extension, you could mention which one it is for more specific comments.)
