Note that when you are running the Alder Nightly Browser, you ''won't'' have access to your history or your saved passwords, or addons or themes. That's because you're running in a different profile from the one you normally use with your Firefox. This also means that anything you do in Alder does not affect your normal Firefox.
The Alder Nightly build will automatically prompt you for updates each day when you start it up. If it does not you can force it to check for updates:
* Start Alder Nightly
* Go to the Help Menu, choose About Nightly
* Click the "Check for Updates" button or the "Apply Updates" button.
* If you don't see a button, you might see "already up to date" in which case you're fine! :-)
 
We ask that you make sure the build is up to date before trying any of the assignments that we'll be sending out.
