I want to be able to have Firefox open up the .vcs files I get in Outlook, like IE does. It looks like I could use the Tools -> Options, Application Panel, but I need to add that mime type. I have read that changing the mimetypes on the server may work, but I have numerous servers at work that send these files. I can see to change the file, but I need text/x-vCalendar and not text/calendar type.

The MIME Edit extension for Firefox 3.0 - 3.7 versions is available here: http://space.geocities.yahoo.co.jp/gl/alice0775/view/20080912/1221150790 The developer who updated that extension is from Japan, and that website won't be completely readable if you don't have the correct language package installed.

You can download it directly from this link and save it to local disk. http://space.geocities.jp/alice0775/STORE/mime_edit-0.601004242000.xpi

Then use File > Open File... to install that extension.

This works really nice and is much better than changing all the servers. You can add any mime you want and attach it to any program on the PC.

Thanks!

The site: http://space.geocities.yahoo.co.jp/gl/alice0775/view/20080912/1221150790 is completely down, or at least I cannot access it.

I have FF 3.5 and would love to get hold of the MIME Edit add-on somehow.

The-Edmeister have you still got a copy of the one for FF 3.0.* + 3.7.* ?? If so could you or anyone else that still has a copy upload it to a bitlocker and send the link here?

I would also like to try this out on the latest FF 4 but am not sure if alice0775 did have one up for that version. If he/she indeed had an MIME edit FF add-on for 4.* would you The-Edmeister or anyone else that has this great add-on upload it to a bitlocker and post the link here as well?

That would be tremendously appreciated. Unfortunately the site seems to have gone off-line completely just recently and this MIME edit add-on for FF seems a real hard to find gem.

Thanks for any help towards this. Tried editing the .rdf file manually but not sure what to write exactly. Any ways, thanks for any help.
