I think you might need to find them again & reinstall them, as I think there might off been updated for the lasted version of firefox, also some of them, might not be compliable with 0.9

Hope this helps :)

247002 2004-06-23 06:17:00 Themes and extensions are not always compatible between versions. At the moment, Firefox won't import your previous themes/extensions (maybe available in feature releases??). It is best that you download new themes/extensions as these should of been upgraded for the 0.9 version. You can get more via Tools > Themes, or Tools > Extensions.

Trying to use old themes/extensions can cause problems.

247003 2004-06-23 06:19:00 would extensions for 0.8 work for 0.9? heni72847 (1166)

Possibly not. You will need to check the extension site for comments on this. As they are only very small downloads, you are better off getting the latest version of that extension.
