Modify about:config and allow pop ups for multiple systems

What I need to accomplish:
security.mixed_content.block_active_content = False
Allow all pop-ups from salesforce.com
I need to do this for 70 computers within my domain.
To modify about:config, I've tried editing user.js (I had to create the user.js file as it did not exist in my profile folder) using the batch file below.
Batch File to edit user.js
cd /D "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*.default"
echo user_pref("security.mixed_content.block_active_content", "false");>>user.js
I've read that the permissions.sqlite file can be edited to allow the pop ups, is there a way for me to edit that from a batch file?
Are these modifications possible without having to visit each user?

You can also use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to specify new (default) values for refs.
*http://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
See also:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
I don't know of a way to easily modify the permissions.sqlite file to add an allow pop-up exception.<br />
You would need an SQLite manager program that accepts command line input to add such a record.<br />
The main problem would be to get the ID value to be used.
*INSERT INTO "moz_hosts" VALUES ("<id>","www.salesforce.com","popup","1","0","0","0","0");

  • Need to allow pop-ups for a site

    My bank has upgraded their website. I need to answer a question in a pop-up box to be able to use the website. Firefox blocks the pop-up box even though I have told it to allow pop-ups for the website.
    How do I get it to allow the pop-up box or do I have to use IE?

    I tried that. I also talked to the people who developed and maintain the site. They said it is not a pop-up window - it is part of the site. Since it showed when I tried Internet Explorer they think it is a problem with Mozilla Firefox or my web connection. They asked me to try accessing it with my computer at a public place that offers free Internet.

  • My pop-up blockers stays on, but when I would click something a pop-up a bar would come across asking if I wanted to "allow pop-ups for this site" or view a specific block pop-up. I accidentally clicked on "do not ask again". How do I get the bar back?

    My Firefox is set up to delete cache, and all history upon closing. But when I restarted my Firefox, or manually deleted everything, nothing worked. Is there a way to reset these? Or do I have to completely uninstall and reinstall Firefox? Even that might not work though.

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    #In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    #Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK.<br><br>
    #Close the tab
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.<br><br>
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.<br>

  • I need to allow pop-ups for an up coming webinar,it says Firefox is blocking them how do i fix this?

    It was from a visualwebcaster.com, and my security settings aren't on for pop-ups

    You can "allow" a site under
    Tools > Options > Content
    using the first Exceptions button on the right.
    But popups also can be blocked by some toolbars as a bonus feature. You may want to check their options. I'd especially check security software bars such as McAfee.
    Even if a toolbar is not normally displayed full time, it still could be active. You can use View > Toolbars to display it and check its features.

    You need to access the files via http://localhost/ if you want to set an exception.

  • How to allow pop-ups in Safari for all users

    How do you allow Safari pop-ups for all users? After rolling out 50 Mac OSX with Safari comes default with Safari pop-ups disabled, now I must allow pop-ups for all users logging in.
    Good day!

    Do you have an Exchange (e.g. a work) email account set up on the iPad ? If you do then it's possible that the account profile is preventing you turning popups 'on', in which case you would need to contact the email account administrator

  • Weird one of those "allow" pop-up for less than a second, keeps coming up periodically....what is this?!

    I am getting a weird pop up, it happens after i log in and then periodically as i am on my computer. Not at any time in particular, happens as I am surfing the web or using applications like iphoto. Its one of the pop ups that would come up to allow something, but its only up for maybe half a second, i can just make out the yellow caution sign that shows up on the allow pop ups for things. I tried downloading a virus software for mac and checking for viruses but couldnt find any. A bit stumped as to what this could be?
    Any suggestions or thoughts are appreciated.

    Yes it occurs when I am not using a browser, although I am not sure entirely if safari was quit or not however it has occured even when I don't have one open
    I only have the one account, I just put the login on because I won't be using my computer all summer. So other than the guest account there is just my main one, and from what I remember it began happening before I did this
    I have not tried booting in safe mode...although it would be hard to tell because I never know when it is going to pop up

  • How do I configure my safari browser to allow pop-ups?

    How do I configure my browser to allow pop-ups from testing websites?

    whoa, whoa, whoa, part of the problem is that there is no indication that a pop-up is occurring or that it's being blocked like I just learned at Hertz.com. So it just looks like a legitmate pop-up fails since the default is to disable pop-ups (actually it looks like nothing). I don't want to always allow pop-ups for every website. I want to be prompted or notified when it happens - to allow for a good site (going forward) and block or be notified for all the other sites. Global on or off is not a great way to go, imho.

  • HT203163 I cannot access iTunes store from my laptop. I could for years but suddenly - no. Have removed all recently installed software. Have uninstalled and re-installed both my anti-virus software and iTunes. Have allowed pop-ups. Have flushed the DNS.

    I cannot access iTunes store from my laptop. I could for years but suddenly - no.
    Have removed all recently installed software. Have uninstalled and re-installed both my anti-virus software and iTunes.
    Have allowed pop-ups.
    Have flushed the DNS. Nothing.
    Still can't access the store. Please help!

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Am using Firefox 5.0.1, any new tabs open with a search engine for imvu and when I go to about:config there is no entry for browser.newtab.url that I can modify

    I am using Firefox 5.0.1.4205 with Windows 7 Home Premium Service pack1. My new tabs in Firefox open with a search engine for imvu rather than google as I would prefer. I can't find an answer to my problem so far because when I try the recommended use of about:config and finding browser.newtab.url; it is not listed. Is this version of firefox to old to have that, or is it just missing? What can I do to get my new tabs to open with a Google search engine. This is on my 80 year old father's computer so he is not likely to upgrade browsers as I would on my home computer. Thank you for any help with this.

    The new tab page (about:newtab) wasn't introduced until a later version of Firefox (iirc, ''Firefox 10'') , which is why that pref can't be found.
    Sounds like your father picked up some Malware.
    Maybe this is what you're dealing with.

  • I don't know where and how to change my browser's settings to allow POP-UPS??? Help!!!

    Help!!! I need to change my browser's settings to allow POP-UPS from the AT&T website so a new window can appear so I can do the tests. Help!!! This is time sensitive!!! :)

    Hi,
    If you go to the AT&T site and then tap the icon to the left of the URL/location bar, you can select 'Clear Site Preferences' to allow popups.
    Thanks,

  • Firefox will open 4 or 5 tabs fine, but then will not load any further websites after those first 4 or 5, or allow you to refresh one of those first tabs -- including about:config and the addon page

    Firefox 5 worked fine. I installed Firefox 7, and when I ran it, tabs would just say "connecting to..." and hang. Restarting did not help. Websites open fine in IE and Chrome. Disabled all firewalls and antivirus, did not help. Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 5, everything worked fine again. This was using Vista 64-bit.
    Upgraded to Windows 7, uninstalled Firefox 5, installed Firefox 7, had same problem. Uninstalled Firefox 7 completely (including the profile information, I saved that information in another folder), restarted computer, and installed Firefox 7 using a completely clean profile. Did not install any add-ons, checked to make sure all plug-ins were up-to-date, and updated plugins.
    Now when I start Firefox, I can load 3 or 4 or 5 tabs fine -- after those first few tabs are open, I cannot open or refresh any other tabs -- including about:config and the add-on manager -- I have to restart Firefox. The hangup doesn't appear to be related to what websites I am attempting to open, but it looks like the number is the problem. I have run through all of the FAQ procedures, including changing the max number of network connections to 48, and the problem does not seem to go away.
    As a side note, I had this same problem when I tried to go from version 5 to version 6 as well. Version 5 is the most recent version that worked on my system.

    Can you try Aurora - download it from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/
    And let us know how it works.

  • How to allow pop-ups to open?

    How do I change my current latest version of Firefox mobile to allow pop-ups to open?

    Hi scarestar,
    Thank you for your question. In order to change the pop up blocker setting on Firefox for Android, it is possible to navigate to the about:config page and search for "Popup". There will be a few features:
    autocomplete.grab_during_popup
    browser.popus.showPopupBlocker
    dom>popup_allowed_events
    dom.popup_maximum
    privacy.popups.disable_from_plugins
    privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage
    Please take a look at these features to determine what kind of pop up you would like to turn back on.
    Thank you and I hope this helps.

  • How do I allow pop ups in safari without being asked "block or allow" ?

    I'm assuming that when I turned on the setting in Safari to allow pop-ups, I wouldn't have to tell the browser to allow or block every single pop up after that.  Is there a combination of settings to make allow pop-ups without the additional "block or allow" message from popping up before the pop up window.
    I used a 3rd party web application that has been coded for their drill-down messages to be displayed in another screen and I have no control over that.
    Thanks for any information you can provide.

    Well, not that helpful unless you can determine if that window is coming from Safari or iOS or from whatever the other "3rd party web application" you were talking about.
    If you don't want to play in that pool, then assume that iOS and/or Safari are working incorrectly. Your Users Guide has a whole chapter (at the end) devoted to what you do when things aren't going well, generally following the sequence of
    Restart - red slider, then boot up again
    Force Quit apps - either via Sleep/Wake followed by Home, or via Recents Tray
    Reset - hold Home & Sleep/Wake to force reboot
    Reset iPad Settings - Settings > General >Reset
    Erase All Content -   same as above
    Restore iPad Software - iTunes or iOS 5 equivalent
    You start at #1 and work your way through until the issue you're seeing goes away. If you get through all of the steps and it still doesn't work, you're pretty much out of gas and have to start talking to Apple.
    So .. start at #1.

  • How to restrict the access of "InPlaceRecordsListSettings.aspx" and "InPlaceRecordsSettings.aspx" pages for some users and allow the access for some users?

    I have a requirement to restrict the access of "InPlaceRecordsListSettings.aspx" and "InPlaceRecordsSettings.aspx" pages for some of the users and allow the access for some of the users.
    I have applied the below code on the web.config file but this modification impacting only on the web application level not on the site collection and sub site level.

    You can't do it from OOTB. 
    _layout folder is accessible to the users if they have read access in any of the site even subsite.
    You can modify *.aspx file, add your custom control which will check user.
