01:16 | Inside this box, let's type Bengali. Notice that the link Bengali is highlighted. |
01:25 | You can now search quickly and easily for links within a web page. |
01:31 | Suppose, you want to access the Firefox browser with your settings and preferences from any other computer or device, like your mobile phone, will that be possible? |
01:43 | Yes! The Firefox Sync feature stores all your browser data like- bookmarks, history and installed extensions securely on a Mozilla server. |
01:55 | You can Sync other computers to this server and so you can access your browser data. |
02:02 | Now, let's enable the Sync features. |
02:06 | From the Menu bar, click Tools and Set Up Sync . The Firefox Sync Setup dialog box appears. |
02:15 | As we are using Sync for the first time, click Create a New Account. |

02:58 | We will not change the settings. Check the “Terms of Service” and “Privacy Policy” box. |
03:08 | Click Next. Firefox displays the Sync Key. |
03:11 | This is the key which you must enter in other systems to access your Sync from those machines. |
03:18 | Click the Save button. In the Save Sync Key dialog box that appears, |
03:24 | browse to the Desktop. Click Save. |
03:28 | The 'Firefox sync key.html' file is saved as the HTML file in the desktop. |
03:35 | Make a note of this key and save the number where you can access it easily. |
03:41 | You will not be able to access your Sync account from other computer without entering this key. |
03:48 | Click Next. In the Confirm you are not a Robot dialog box, |
03:53 | enter the words displayed in the box. The setup is complete. |
03:59 | Click on the Sync Options button on the left of the Firefox Sync Setup dialog box. |
04:06 | You can set your Sync options here. |
04:09 | For the purpose of this tutorial, we shall not change the default option. Click Done. |
04:17 | Click Next. Firefox verifies the contents. Then the Finish button is displayed, click Finish. |
04:25 | You have setup 'Firefox Sync' on your computer. |
04:29 | And now, how do you access your browser data from another computer? |
04:35 | You need Sync to other computer or device tool. |

06:49 | A plug-in is a software program that adds a specific functionality to the Firefox browser. |
06:57 | However, plug-ins are different from extensions. |
07:00 | plug-ins are programs, created by other companies. |
07:04 | Plug-ins integrate third party programs into the Firefox browser. |
07:10 | Plug-ins let you play videos, view multi-media content, perform virus scans and 'power animation in firefox'. |
07:21 | For e.g: Flash is a plug-in you installed to view videos in the Firefox browser. |

07:33 | From Menu bar, select Tools and addons |
07:38 | The addon manager tab opens. From the left panel, click plug-ins. |
07:45 | The right panel now displays the plug-ins that are installed on your computer. |
07:50 | And how do you install plug-ins? |
07:53 | Each plug-in has to be downloaded from the relevant website and then installed on your computer. |
08:01 | The installation procedure may be different for each plug-in. |
