First let's be sure your Error Console is working.
Open
https://getfirebug.com/tests/content/console/testErrors.html
With the Error Console open, click the "Syntax Error" button. Your
Error Console should show:

Error: missing ; before statement
Source File: https://getfirebug.com/tests/content/console/testErrors.html
Line: 1
Source Code:
2BeOrNot2Be(40)

Next let's check your installation. Use about:support URL then look in
Application Basics > Profile Directory > Open Containing Folder >
extensions subdirectory
You should have a directory
[email protected]
and no directory "staged-xpi"
In the [email protected] directory there should be a file
install.rdf and chrome.manifest.
Also verify that you have a subdirectory content/firebug with a file
"branch.properties".
Then go back the Firefox URL and use:
chrome://firebug/content/branch.properties
You should see
----
# DO NOT MERGE INTO TRUNK
RELEASE=.3
VERSION=1.5
TRUNK=
----
If that all works then the basic look up for firebug as an extension
is working.

My guess is that you don't get this far, so then you may like to
consider the voodoo you can try here:
