    After you finish with the adding the application to the tool bar i will suggest you the method to use it. You can use the two method to apply the external application to the add on. The first one is that right click on the menu and select the new button which will allow you to browse the external application. Or you can another method which is just the drag and drop the application to the menu. That all i can help you. Bye

    Hey thanks to all for sharing this great knowledge about the use of the external application on the Firefox with the help of the add on which is known as External Application Buttons mod. I have used it and it reduces the time for accessing the other application. You can directly download it from the Mozilla site. To download click here
