  • How to deploy Firefox to multiple machines with custom addons?

    I am looking to deploy Firefox to multiple Mac machines with some custom addons and settings. What's the best approach for that?
    I was thinking about using Firefox ESR but I am not sure how to save the profiles folder inside the app folder. I know that this is possible because the Tor Browser does that.

    You can look at this extension:

  • How to deploy Firefox on Citrix Wi2k3 server with defined homepage and restrictions to visit any site but the homepage

    I'm trying to lock down Firefox for a few users on our Citrix server to a single website. I've found documentation for previous versions but they do not seem to work for version 6 that I have installed on the server. I've attempted to create a "mozilla.cfg" file but there are references to an "all.js" file in a folder named "greprefs" and that folder does not exist. I did look at the omni.jar file and I don't see "all.js" in the jar either.

  • Wheren can I find a Tutorial for deploying Firefox ESR?

    I am a none-techie that wants to use Firefox in a company. We are a growing startup and have serious issues regarding password management:
    We have a bunch of passwords that need to be available company-wide but should not be known to our employees. We are looking at Lastpass to solve this. But: Lastpass is of no use, if a user can simply activate password-saving in his browser.
    Thus we need a way to prevent users from saving passwords they shouldn't know. And maybe event prevent them from installing other password managers, with which they might be able to grab a password.
    Can I do all this with Firefox ESR? And if so, where can I learn how to deploy Firefox as a non-techie?

    I think lot of this is going to be outside the scope of this forum.
    For instance would it not be better if globally used company passwords gave access to required locations with suitable permissions. ESR has its own mailing list it is probably better to use that as a source of information about deploying ESR.

  • How to have Firefox use same bookmark file when running on either Windows XP or Ubuntu (dual boot desktop)

    Recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop in a dual-boot configuration with Windows XP. (Ubuntu is awesome !)
    I can run Firefox on either OS - each version maintaining its own bookmark file.
    Is there any way to have each version of Firefox look in the same place for the bookmark file ? That would remove the need to regularly export/import bookmarks between versions to keep them in sync.
    Thanks !
    Andrew Chorlton

    You can use Firefox Sync.

  • After upgrading to Firefox 4 in my Windows XP desktop, how do I restore to Organize Bookmarks... selection, which is no longer visible in the Bookmarks menu or in any other menu?

    Typo; should be "how do I restore the Organize Bookmarks... selection". This selection also does not exist when I manually change Firefox to show the new "Firefox" orange menu tab at the upper left corner of the Firefox window.

    OK, that works. In addition, just before receiving your response, I discovered that History --> Show All History brings up the identical "Show All Bookmarks" Library popup that includes the export and import Bookmark options (which is what I was looking for all along).
    If anyone from the Mozilla-Firefox organization reads this, please update Firefox Help concerning the Bookmark maintenance functions. Help still refers only to pre-Firefox 4 versions, and is no help here with respect to Firefox 4 (which is why I had to post my initial query).

  • How to show Firefox toolbar after deployment

    I am deploying Firefox 30 in our enterprise. How can I get the menubar to show after Firefox has been deployed? I found that I can most probably control this using userChrome.css, but I don't know the syntax nor can I find a decent guide. The statement that I have been using:
    #toolbar-menubar {display: inline !important; }
    This gets me the menubar, but also moves the search bar and the configuration menu up to inline with the tabs. What else can I do?

    cor-el, surprisingly, I actually caught that and added it later. That did not work.
    Is it just me and my lack of experience in this area or does this seem to be overly complicated for such a seemingly simple request? I was looking through the xul.css file to see if there was something that would stand out as a possibility for a simple change, but I am adverse to tinker with these settings without knowing exactly what I am doing.
    Anyway, if you something else I could try, I would appreciate any help. Thank you again.

  • Problems deploying Windows 7 x64 computers with more than 8GB RAM

    SCCM 2012 R2 CU1
    Windows 7 x64
    We have a weird problem after upgrading from SP1 to R2 CU1. We have built a Windows 7 64 bit image with the latest updates (currently September 2014 updates). It deploys fine to all computers. But after some days – don’t know exactly – guess after 4-7 days
    - we start getting errors on computers with more than 8 GB of RAM. The errors just start out of the blue. We didn't change TS, image or driver package.
    The error shows in 3 different ways – depending of the computer model.
    1) BSOD – STOP 0x000000F4. Disk error.
    2) Task Sequence error 0x87D00269 when installing the first Application in TS. The error seems to have something to do with Management Point not found.
    3) Task Sequence simply stops after installing CMclient. No errors - it simply stops.
    For instance we get the BSOD on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M93p. But on the ThinkCentre M83 we get the TS error 0x87D00269. M93p and M83 uses the same driver package. They consequently  fail every time after the error has begun. If we reduce (remove physically)
    the memory to max. 8GB of RAM, they successfully run the Task Sequence.  We get the above errors on both Lenovo and HP machines with more than 8GB. 
    I made a copy of the production TS and started testing. I created a new driver package for M93p/M83. It contains only the NIC drivers. Now M93p an M83 successfully finishes the TS. Adding sata or chipset or MEI/SOL drivers to the package I get the 0x87D00269
    error on both m93p and M83. At least not the BSOD on the M93p ;-)
    Tried setting  SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout to 180 in the TS. Also tried putting in a 5 minute break before installing the first Application in the TS. Also tried putting in SMSMP=mp1.mydomain in the installation properties for the CMclient. It is still
    the same problem.
    Investigating the smsts.log on a computer with the 0x87D00269 error.

    Install Static Applications failed, hr=0x87d00269. The operating system reported error 617: You have attempted to change your password to one that you have used in the past. The policy of your user account does not allow this. Please select a password that
    you have not previously used.
    Hopefully this is a bug in translating the errorcodes? Just to be sure I checked all the SCCM serviceaccounts and none of them have expired passwords.  And again why only on computers with more than 8GB RAM.
    Anyone else had problems rolling computers with more than 8GB og RAM?
    Why does this happens after a few days? To begin with, it runs just perfect and then starts failing on all machines with more than 8GB. Without a change in TS, image and driverpackage. We have seen this pattern for the last 3 month after
    updating our image with the latest Windows Updates. It all started after updating from SP1 to R2 CU1.
    Why does it only affect machines with more than 8GB RAM?
    How to get rid of the 0x87D00269 error?
    Seems to be somehow related to driver installation mechanism in SCCM in combination with Windows 7 64 bit, +8GB RAM and SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 or perhaps just R2.
    Any help or hints would be appreciated!
    Thanks
    Anders

    We have the same workaround, using a x64 boot image resolved all our issues with WinPE 5.0.
    Machines with >4GB of RAM
    Lenovo ThinkPad T540p failed applying drivers with 80040005
    Black screen/white cursor issues intermittently
    No updates from Microsoft, they are still looking through the logs, but we have updated our boot images and all is well now. Our case it still open with Microsoft, they are researching the logs.

  • How to make Firefox to never update that slow custom look since FF 29?

    How to make Firefox to never update that slow custom look since FF 29? How to change windows installation and ubuntu installation so they never update after FF 28 witch was last normal speed normal browser?
    Hello. I can easy remove on Windows FF 29 or FF 30 and its slower on fast computer. But its affected by millions of users. With FF 28 it was allways fast.
    Why fast? I dont know but its SLOW Now any version after FF 28.
    Since FF 29 FF loads and hangs very very slow each time loading, starting, or changing tabs. It is making problem for everyone and now everyone calls with help- "why computer is slow.. oh its FF? Chrome? Chrome was slow but now its not the slowest one?"
    Very colorfull Example- one comp is 10" and its very very very very low specs. So it wont run at all.
    Now on small comp we can try linux and FF BUT no matter what OS just couldnt get back with any plugins back normal speed. Since FF 29 its very very very slow and that needs to have a solution. Today came update and still unneded custom menu button and its slowness hasnt been removed (unnoticed) so it needs a fix so it works for people who are not just for browsing internet buying new computer and cant get any faster speed then Chrome since now theres no FF anymore.
    SO- How to do that on Windows and Linux- installing FF 28 and making it never upgrade
    OR even better- Making a package that already has this update disbled setting ON?
    p.s. Should you first ask people how they like slow browsers before making fast one to a slow one?
    p.p.s. i dont get how menu could be added by thouse who need it as an add-on ass allways and not presuring everyone who never touches any button.
    p.p.p.s. your business was beeing neutral ngo making browser for people and not for making cloged systems so new computers could be sold by some company advice or infiltrated mole who will suggest such unneded feature as any other addons, but sticking it in for everyone.

    Hello,
    You can download version 28 from here:
    https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/28.0/
    Also, you'll have to disable auto updates to remain with version 28 by following the steps described in this support article:

  • Is there a site or dvd to help me learn how to use firefox 6???

    It's impossible to make certain modification to the content on your iPod if it is not connected to a computer. In fact, just about the only thing you can do from the iPod is rate your music.
    If you want complete control, just tell the iPod to manage music manually and you can move things in and delete them as you please.
    The reason the iPod works like this is pretty simple, Apple figures that allowing the user to delete music from the iPod all willy-nilly would make the iPod more complex, and therefore more confusing.
    But honestly, do you need to delete the podcasts from your iPod RIGHT AFTER you've listened to them? What's the deal with the urgent need to make more space? Unless you're doing transfers from a camera (and I seriously doubt you are) you can just delete them the next time you plug the iPod into your computer.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 TLPE , how to Deploy ?????????

    Have tried to get help from Adobe Chat, no luck, called support waited for 120 minutes, no one attended the call.
    Whats wrong ...
    I have TLPE license for Photoshop Elements 12.0 WIN ESD S and Premiere Elements 12.0 WIN ESD S
    Question how I can serialize it , or deploy on multiple PCSs.
    Googling it from yesterday, search shows CREATIVE SUITE ENTERPRISE DEPLOYMENT only , but I guess my products does not supported by creative suite, ,,,,, ..................................... some one know exactly what to do ?

    Okay, let's back up a little. Do you like iphoto? Do you want to use iphoto? I don't understand what you mean about "no tutorial course for mac", incidentally. There are thousands of tutorials about PSE and nearly as many for iphoto, but that's beside the point right now.
    How do you want to organize your photos: with iphoto, with the elements organizer, or in your own system of files and folders?
    If you just want to use PSE with iphoto, you have two options:
    1. Go to the iphoto preferences>advanced and set PSE as your external editor. Then send the photos from iphoto by right-clicking (control clicking if you have your mouse set up as a one-button mouse), edit the photo in PSE but don't change the name or format, and save (not save as) when done and iphoto will remember your last set of edits and the original image, but you must lose the edits if you want to get back to the original. This doesn't work with raw files.
    2. Export the photos from iphoto, use file>open in the PSE editor, make all the changes you want, including name and/or format, and then re-import the edited images to iphoto as new files. This way you can save as many different stages of your editing as you like, but iphoto won't associate the edited versions with the original.
    So tell us more about what you want to do and which of those methods sounds better (if you want to stick with iphoto) and I'll post more details about how to go about it.

  • Help needed with deploying Firefox 3.6.11 to upgrade existing installations including add-ons and plug-ins

    Hello, I need to deploy Firefox 3.6.11 to existing installations to upgrade them from the old version. That part is fine, the problem I have is will the silent installation update any non-compatible add-ons or extensions? I will be using SCCM for the deployement part..
    I ran the installation manually on a typical machine of which it gave the option of upgrading the existing client. Thats fine but the installation then prompted that 2 currently installed add-ons were not compatible with the new version. It lets you select and then "check" for later versions of those add-ins, actually checks for updates and lets you select and install those too!!
    Now, how do you deploy silently with those options I`ve mentioned above??? Cant find any command line parameter that allow for that!
    Please Help!
