I just tried out the latest converter and the resulting extension does not work with firefox 3rc1.
It says that the extension can not be installed as it is not compatible with firefox 3.0.
Is there a new converter on the horizon that'll fix that problem? |

Please, go Toolbar->Settings->Update tab and remove Update URL , then test again.
The problem would be solved.
If not, please send us your .xpi to support@besttoolbars.net |

I also get an "Incompatable Extension" error :
-------------------------------------
"my_toolbar_name" will not be installed because it does not provide secure updates.
-------------------------------------
Logical thinking tells me that it might be because the update is not "https://".
Does this make sense for an update though ? |

Well the message I get from firefox is not regarding secure updates (I disabled that check in the firefox prefs anyway.).
It states:
| Quote: | | The extension "My Toolbar 1.0.0" is not compatible with Firefox 3.0! |

Interesting information:
For the developer minded...
Great article on making Updates Secure and what causes the current error.
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Extension_Versioning%2C_Update_and_Compatibility#Securing_Updates
For current FF Beta 3 users. Excerpted from:
http://lifehacker.com/355973/make-your-extensions-work-with-the-firefox-3-betax
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Big Honking Warning: Only do this if you're willing to deal with possible bleeding edge extension bugs and security risks!
* Type about:config into Firefox's address bar and click the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button.
* Right-click anywhere. Choose New>Boolean. Make the name of your new config value extensions.checkCompatibility and set it to false.
* Make another new boolean pair called extensions.checkUpdateSecurity and set the value to false.
* Restart Firefox.
If all goes well, and any extensions that aren't yet officially Firefox 3 Beta 3 compatible and don't have secure updates (like Better Gmail and friends) will be enabled. Final warning: These changes may lead to unexpected wacky behavior. Proceed at your own risk!

this is not work too
I change extension toolbar.xpi to toolbar.zip
then unziping this file and edit install.rdf :
| Code: | | <em:maxVersion>3.0b5</em:maxVersion> |
to
| Code: | | <em:maxVersion>3.0</em:maxVersion> |
then I create zip file and change extension again.
This new toolbar.xpi file is work good on FireFox3 RC1:) |
