00:00 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Extensions in Mozilla Firefox. |
00:05 | In this tutorial, we will learn about: Extensions or Add-ons, installing Extensions, recommended Extensions. |
00:14 | Here we are using Firefox 7.0 on Ubuntu 10.04. |
00:20 | Let us open the Firefox browser. |
00:23 | By default, the yahoo home page opens. |
00:27 | What are Extensions or Add-ons? |
00:29 | Extensions allow you to: |
00:31 | Add new features to the Firefox browser. |
00:35 | Enhance existing features. |
00:37 | Customize the Firefox browser to suit your preferences. |
00:42 | Extensions are a part of the Firefox browser |
00:45 | and extend the browser’s capabilities. |
00:48 | For example, you can install extensions that: |
00:51 | Block advertisements or pop-ups. |
00:54 | Compare prices of commodities and even |
00:56 | display weather updates. |
01:00 | Let’s install the Grab and Drag extension. |
01:03 | Grab and Drag let’s you scroll through web pages in various ways. |
01:07 | It is similar to the 'grab and drag' function in Adobe Acrobat. |
01:12 | From the Menu bar, click Tools and Add-ons. |
01:16 | The Add-ons Manager tab opens. |
01:20 | Alternately, you can also press the Ctrl+Shift+A keys together to open the Add-ons Manager tab. |
01:28 | The left panel in Add-ons Manager displays the available options. |
01:34 | Notice, by default the option Get Add-ons is selected. |
01:39 | The right panel displays information for the option selected in the left panel. |
01:45 | So, the right panel defines Add-ons and tells you how to get started with add-ons. |
01:51 | It even lists some Add-ons you can install. |
01:55 | Now, we shall install the new Add-on- Grab and Drag. |
01:59 | First, in the Search bar, located on the top-right corner, type: Grab and Drag. Press Enter. |
02:08 | The right panel, now lists the add-ons that best match the name we searched for. |
02:14 | Also, notice that all the add-ons that have the word drag in the title are displayed. |
02:20 | Notice that the first name on the list, Grab and Drag, is an exact match. |
02:26 | Click on Install. |
02:28 | As with most softwares, some add-ons too may have 'end-user license agreements'. |
02:35 | On the End-User License Agreement dialog box, click Accept and Install. |
02:41 | The Add-on downloading progress bar appears. |
02:46 | Next, a message that the 'add-on will be installed |
02:50 | when you restart Mozilla Firefox'is displayed. |
02:54 | Click on Restart Now. |
02:57 | The Firefox browser closes and reopens. |
03:01 | The Add-ons Manager opens in a new tab. |
03:05 | Notice that the Grab and Drag extension is displayed in the right panel of the Extensions tab. |
03:11 | Following the previous steps, let’s install another extension Scrap Book. |
03:18 | Scrap Book allows you to save and manage Web page collections. |
03:24 | Notice that the installation progress bar and the message to close and restart Firefox are not displayed separately. |
03:33 | They are displayed in the Scrap Book bar. |
03:36 | Click Restart Now. |
03:40 | Scrap Book is installed in Firefox. |

04:49 | You can set your preferences using this dialog box. |
04:53 | Click Cancel to exit the dialog box. |
04:57 | Now, select Scrap Book and click Preferences. |
05:01 | Notice that the Scrap Book Options dialog box is different from the Grab and Drag Preferences dialog box. |
05:09 | Therefore, each Extension has different settings that can be changed. |
05:13 | If the Preferences button is not visible for an Extension, |
05:17 | it implies that there are no preferences for it. |
05:21 | Click Close to exit the ScrapBook Options dialog box. |
05:26 | As with most softwares, add-ons too are updated on a regular basis. |
05:31 | To update Scrap Book, select it, right-click and click Find Updates. |
05:37 | If Updates are found, the Update button is displayed. |
05:42 | Click on it to update the add-on. |
05:47 | As there are no updates for Scrap Book, the Update button is not displayed. |
05:51 | Finally, if you do not want to use an Extension click the Disable button. |
