On one of my computers, the tool bar includes an icon for radio stations and a calculator, but those do not appear on my other computer. Are these add-ons? How do I add them to my other computer?

When I downloaded Firefox 4 on my desktop, it included an icon for radio stations, for the weather and a calculator. I don't remember choosing them. I also downloaded Firefox 4 on my netbook, but these same icons are visible. Can I add them?

These may well be add-ons, look at what you have installed

  • use Firefox button(orange tab top left) -> Add-ons | Plugins/Extensions
    that is the add-ons manager, and also allows you to search for other addons
  • see also customizing firefox with add-ons

Some of the icons could also be bookmarks, note the bookmark toolbar does not display in Firefox 4 by default to get it back

  • use Firefox Button -> Options -> [x] Bookmarks Toolbar
    that is assuming you have bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar folder (should have some defaults like 'most visited')

Some add-ons may not be compatible with Firefox 4, but revisions may be issued that work, or alternatives with similar functions may be available.
