If you use TabMixPlus, you may wait with FF updating.

This is what I'm getting, when trying to update:



so I'm not sure, if I should take a risk?

I don't know why they won't sign off on it through mozilla. Everyone keeps asking but they aren't answering for some reason.

The link above works, and is safe. It's what I had to use when I updated today and comes from the Tab Mix Plus forums - http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/index.php

Wrong link above. Here is the dev builds thread - http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7031

I have build 416 installed, but FF warns me about incompatibility.
Did you install 3.0.1, and TMP works?

No and yes. When I updated to 3.0.1 today TMP wouldn't install (incompatible) so I went to the forums and reinstalled the latest build and it worked fine. Got a warning but ignored it.

Wait. You didn't have TMP before 3.0.1 update?

Yes I had the same build I do now with FF3.0. When I updated to FF3.1 today TMP wouldn't install. I think the new FF3.1 "broke" the TMP install. Not sure, all I know is I reinstalled it and it was back to normal.

Here is a thread discussing what happened. I don't understand half of it but I think what they are basically saying is to reinstall the dev build ???.

I did edit install.rdf file as prescribed in your link, FF update still gave me warning about TMP,  but update installed without damaging TMP.
Good, thanks.

I don't know who is to blame, the developers or mozilla but I wish they would get it together. It's been long enough now.
