Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - [SOLVED] Firefox 3.05b add-on compatibility bypass?

**jamiemac2005** · 04-25-2008, 03:35 PM

Hey, okay i'm using Firefox 3.05b and of course there are many of my add-ons that aren't compatible with the beta version. I've heard though that you can bypass the compatibility test for an extension? could anyone explain this process to me. (i've tried using the "ignore version check" on the add-on's page but then i get an error along the lines of "this add-on was not installed because it is not compatible with your version of firefox" though i've tried this with SwitchProxy (which i've heard is possible) and it still didn't want to install...

Can anyone help me out?

Cheers,
Jamey
