Is there a difference for user agent string for firefox desktop & firefox mobile?

Yes. All versions of mobile Firefox have "Fennec" in the useragent string. For example:
Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Linux armv7l; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1 Fennec/2.0.1
For more details and examples, please see this article:

User Agent Strings for Office 365 Install and Updates

In my organization, we restrict internet access to a specific list of approved applications by user agent string; however, it seems the user agent string for Office 365 (2013) applications has changed over time causing installs and updates of Office 365
on client PCs to fail.
Is there a repository of user agent strings used by Office 365 applications?
Thanks in advance.

Where is the user agent string located for Firefox 4? In the previous versions, it was in the Help-About menu.

Just curious on the location of the user agent string for Firefox 4. I don't want to edit or change it, I just want to view it. In previous versions of Firefox, it was in the Help-About menu. It doesn't appear to be located in this spot for Firefox 4.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Setting default user agent string

Hi,
Anyone know how or if I can set the default user agent string in Safari? I know this can be done on the Mac by editing the com.apple.safari.plist file but it doesn't seem for Windows? I want to set this user agent string for testing purposes.

How to append the User Agent String in IE11

We use "Internet Explorer maintenance" GPO to append the standard User Agent String for IE9 with "ADFSIntAuth". "Internet Explorer maintenance" is deprecated and will not work anymore for IE11 and later.
Now we want to move to IE11 and I can't find a solution to append the User Agent String. With GPO this isn't possible anymore (Why Microsoft?). And the registry keys I've tested won't do the job. I've tested
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform
So whats is the best way to append the user agent string for IE11?
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cdc999aa-faec-4aa5-9025-f12a524794f0/ie10-user-agent-string?forum=winserverGP didn't help.

Thank you for the Reply Roger.
I have already read the website you are referring to, but it doesn't say how to append the User Agent String.
Only this:
"Earlier versions of the browser included
Pre-Platform and Post-platform registry value tokens in the user-agent string. However, this led to
performance issues for customers of certain tools and add-ons. As a result, these tokens are now reported only through the
navigator.userAgent property"
With a dead link to the article "navigator.userAgent", but with a search I came to this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/ms534712(v=vs.85).aspx But also this article won't say how to append the User Agent String for all
clients in a corporate environment.

I installed IE11 in my machine .And also we migrating all our developed application (ASP .Net/ VS 2010) to work in IE11 .
But when i open (Developer tool (F12) -> Emulation) In that ,
While selecting "User agent string" i two different option

Internet Explorer 11
Actually what difference between this two user agent string and too i am working in .Net
And i select "IE11" as a user agent option , most of my application working flawless (design) but if i select "Default" throwing lot of design oriented bugs.
Is there setting to be made in .Net framework or anything else
Because it should work in both "Default" and "IE11" user agent string

Hello kumaran_Arun,
Please try to reset Internet Explorer and check if the issue still exists.

Bad http.agent in Java properties : a bug in the HTTP user-agent string?

Hi all,
Me :
I'm patching AWSTATS (web log analyzer tool) in order to recognize which Java version has
been used to download files.
Context of the problem :
Each time a Java program (or applet) is downloading a file (for example .class, .png, .html)
from a web server, a line will be added in the web server log file. If the web server is well
configured, the user agent used to download the file will be at the end of the line in the log file.
For Sun Java JVM, the user agent string is configured in the Java properties under "http.agent".
Usually, the user-agent string contains the word "Java" and the virtual machine version. In most
cases, this is just a string like "Java/1.4.2", so this is relatively easy to parse.
Problem :
Looking in my web server stats, and then on the web, I found that a JVM's user-agent is
"Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)", which obviously does not contains the word "Java".
Consequently, it is difficult to say that this user-agent string belongs to a JVM.
Further look in my log files and on google shows that this http.agent string appears
on Microsoft Internet Explorer (it seems MSIE 6.0) over Windows XP with the J2RE plugin:
http://board.gulli.com/thread/300321
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?thread=531295&forum=30&message=2559523
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=63&thread=132769&start=210&range=15&tstart=0&trange=15
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=32&thread=480899
http://www.goodidea.ru/setupJava/javaInstall.htm
The J2RE plugin version does not seems to play a role as this user-agent string has
been seen on 1.4.1_02-b06, 1.4.2_01, 1.4.2_03 and 1.4.2_04-b05.
Further information requested :
I would like to know:
1) if you have reported the same problem;
2) if there is some rules for the http.agent property;
3) if this is a bug.
Thank you very much, and feel free to add you opinion.
Julien

The web log files where the "Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)" user-agent appears can be displayed using the following search terms on google :
"Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)" -"(Windows XP 5.1) Java"
http://www.google.ch/search?hl=fr&ie=UTF-8&q=%22Mozilla%2F4.0+%28Windows+XP+5.1%29%22+-%22%28Windows+XP+5.1%29+Java%22&btnG=Rechercher&meta=

Internet Explorer 11 - Emulation Document Mode and User Agent String Drop Down Menu Blank

Hey
I have a user who has a problem with Internet Explorer 11 where when you go to emulation mode using F12, the Document Mode and User Agent String Drop Down Menu are both blank. On our internal website its works correctly but on all other external websites
they are both blank.
I have had a look at the link below but this did not help as it would not recreate some of the registry keys.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie11-iewindows8_1/document-mode-and-user-agent-string-dropdowns/cd34d5f8-7839-4083-af55-05d49ba85190?rtAction=1387560713451
Charlie

Hi,
Please include links to any websites that you are having issues with your questions.
There are some known reasons why the documentMode dropdown appears blank...
not all websites though should have the conditions for this.
f12>Console tab, refresh the page to show suppressed error messages and warnings... (documentMode x-ua toggling is listed)...
IE11 includes improvements for XSS... to link to internet sites from your intranets you need to add those sites (If you really, really trust them) to the Trusted Sites list.
the developer console will list blocked xss requests.
by default IE11 runs in EPM.... in the Internet Zone, while it is not switched on for the intranet zone....
EPM only allows 64 bit Addons and ActiveX controls to run in the context of an IE tab...
so its highly likely that one of your Addons is causing the issue.
the first step in troubleshooting IE issues is to test in noAddons mode.
Regards.

Change chromium user agent string

i edit some websites for school, and unfortunately, the cms software requires internet explorer 6/7. i'm looking to try changing the chromium user agent string to see if i can edit the pages in chromium.
i've tried the '--user-agent=' switch, but it doesn't seem to work. running
javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent)
still shows the usual chromium user agent string.
is there another way to change the user agent string?
or better: do you have any suggestions for getting around the cms browser issue? i'm trying to avoid more complicated solutions like running a vm, wine, dual booting with windows, etc.
thanks.

I am not a user agent switching guru, but '--user-agent=' seems to work with http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
Edit:
javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent)
(there's a colon between 'javascript' and 'alert')
works too, e.g.
chromium --user-agent="MSIE 6.1"
shows a box with 'MSIE 6.1'.

Redirection per user agent string.

Hi folks,
I'm looking to redirect older IE clients away from a new SharePoint 2013 installation based on the user agent string. The redirect needs to only affect the home page as we still expect to allow direct URLs to content such as policy documents through.
The only way I know of to do this is to add a brief piece of server-side code into the home.aspx that assesses the user agent string but I'm wondering if within SharePoint 2013 there's a better way to manage the redirection of specific browser versions?
(Specifically any version of IE prior to version 9)
Cheers,
Lain

Configuration issue in IE as Document mode: 10 and User agent String: Internet Explorer 8

Hi,
I have a telerik rad popup window performing some input operation. The problem is when I use the configuration in IE as Document mode: 10 and User
agent String: Internet Explorer 8, scroll bars appear in the window from nowhere. It is working fine with every other configuration of IE. I've also used a separate stylesheet for IE 8 but it won't apply in this case.
Here are the screen shots of the window.
Actual view
With Scorllbar
Please if anybody could suggest a solution for this weird problem it would be a great help.
Thanks in advance.
Neelesh

Hi,
It seems we need to talk with the site developers to determine how the sheet would display with different IE user agent string.
Regarding the user agent string changes, please take a check with the following article:
Introducing IE9’s User Agent String
The Internet Explorer 8 User-Agent String (Updated Edition)
Hope this may help

Creative Cloud User Agent String spoofing old Chrome Browser?

Was troubleshooting Creative Cloud not working on our network and noticed it is spoofing an old Chrome browser User Agent String.
When Creative Cloud launches it presents itself as: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.22 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/25.0.1364.68 Safari/537.22
This is the user agent string of Google Chrome version 25 (Chrome is currently at version 32)
Looking for any information on why Creative Cloud is using an old Chrome user agent string, and why can't it use a unique user agent?

How can you add an extra user agent value for Safari?

I need to configure Safari to contain an additional User Agent string. This is an IE sample of what I need Safari to add:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; SV1; THISIS_ATEST; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
I know you can add the Debug menu and change the User Agent but this does not permit you to add an additional string as in the sample above.
Thank you for your help in advanced.
