I have a life time subscription to Garmin and want to do a update of my maps. I just updated to Fire Fox 5.0 and it's telling me it's not compatible is there a way around this or can I go back to a earlier version of Fire Fox so I can use this option.

This extension should allow that Garmin add-on to be enabled and work in Firefox 5. You will need to make sure that all the features work correctly and report those that don't through that add-on or directly to Garmin.

Bottom line is that Garmin needs to update their Firefox add-on for Firefox 5 and subsequent versions. (Some add-on developers are "testing ahead" and providing compatibility for the 6.0 betas and 7.0 alphas that are now being developed b Mozilla.)
