  3. Check Turn on ClearType and then Next to fine tune your settings.

See Wie aktualisiere ich meine Grafiktreiber? for more information, including how to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox as a possible workaround.

Some of my add-ons were disabled. What can I do?

After upgrading, Firefox checks for new versions of your add-ons and disables those that are no longer compatible. By default it will continue to check for new versions periodically. For more info, see Nach einem Firefox-Update sind Add-ons deaktiviert.

Some add-ons (like Firebug) have completely different versions for new versions of Firefox so the auto-update feature won't work. To check for a new version:

  1. Klicken Sie auf die Menüschaltfläche menu button de fx89, klicken Sie auf Add-ons und Themes und wählen Sie Extensions.
  2. Click the more link in the add-on's description.
  3. In the detail view, click the homepage link to be taken to the add-on's website where you can search for a newer version.

Where are my bookmarks?

Relax. If you were using the Bookmarks Toolbar to hold your favorite sites you may just have to turn it back on:

Why are tabs on top of the location bar now?
