Why doesn't Firefox have an ADM/ADMX GPO file?

I've been using Firefox for years, and it's always been my favorite browser. But working in our environment we push Firefox to our users, but we have no control of the software. Things we want to do are; allow pop-ups, disable auto-update, enable certain plug-ins and a few other settings we want configured.
Why is this never tackled by the Firefox development group? I've seen 3rd party ADM\ADMX but they only last for a version and won't work again.
Why won't Firefox do this for the business users? It's been brought up time and again.

hello jlindemann25, discussion and support about enterprise deployment is out of the scope of this forum unfortunately. you'll get a better response if you take this issue to the Enterprise User Working Group mailinglist.

  • Why doesn't firefox have a "print" button in the tool bar and why can't I add attachments to my emails MOST of the time. It only works rarely?? Frustrating!

    I cannot find an add on as a print button for the firefox toolbar. Almost every time I want to print, I have to copy and then open a document and paste it there to be able to print it.
    Also, each time I want to add an attachment to an email, it rarely lets me. I have to open internet explorer and go through my email that way to be able to add attachments.

    1. File > Print <br />
    2. There is a '''Print''' button in the Customize palette for the Toolbars. <br />

    Considering that Firefox doesn't do email, that problem is probably caused by your webmail portal software not being totally compatible with Firefox. If you tell which webmail service you use maybe another user who is familiar with that service can help you.

  • Why doesn't firefox have an uninstall button ...Or don't run when it's update shows it isn't compatible with my wireless hp printer? I don't want the version installed when it takes away my being able to print wirelessly!!!!!!

    I don't want the updates...If they take away the ease of using my computer! The latest version didn't recognize the FB shortcut. and I use my wireless printer now I don't think I can because it had no updates for the printer after firefox updated I want to be able to back out of the update if it isn't compatible!!!!

    I am the original poster, and I got rid of CA Security Suite & and loaded the Avast! which has some great features even on the freeware. No more crashes or freezing & yes I think there is a problem with CA & Firefox, but am not sure what it is. CA was a big time hog. I also got rid of my ISP and installed a Intellinet Wireless G PCI Card & now am completely wireless on my PC. Faster by far than what I was paying $50/month for & I use my Windows Firewall.

  • Why doesn't Firefox auto-update Flash Player like Chrome does?

    For security reasons and less hassle, I like Chrome auto-updates Flash Player. Why doesn't Firefox do this?

    Google Chrome has it's own version of the Flash plugin that is apart of the Google Chrome installation files.<br />
    So Google needs to do a full update with every Flash release.
    Firefox uses the Flash plugin as installed in your Linux distribution,<br />
    If your Ubuntu Linux distribution doesn't have an automatic update for Flash then you need to do that manually.

  • When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"?

    When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"? IE always saved photos in the "Photos" file and documents in the "Documents" file. Firefox makes me choose every time. Very annoying.

    How about if Firefox is programmed like IE in this ONE thing...
    When saving files from internet sources, if the file ends in a typical photo extension such as .jpg, .bmp, .tif etc. it defaults to save it in your PHOTOS folder.
    When saving anything like a .doc, .pdf etc. it defaults to save it to your DOCUMENTS.
    You could still change it to 'desktop' if that if really where you want all your photos and documents... or some other folder that you decide, but DEFAULTS to the LOGICAL folder.
    I have carpal tunnel SO bad that even typing this suggestion is painful and having to make the extra click along with moving the mouse EVERY time I want to save something is painful.
    ALSO, I shouldn't need a bunch of ADDONS to accomplish this. I tried downloading one and it did nothing. The problem still exists.

    Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, I already did all of these things. As you can see from the below screenshot, the language is already set. Also, this screenshot was taken in Safe Mode, so NoScript is not enabled. About:accounts still says I need to enable cookies for some reason. So, this solution didn't work....

  • Why doesn't PS have auto-recover?

    This is probably the one thing about PS that bugs the crap out of me. If Photoshop crashes while you are working something, it is lost forever. I was working on a digital painting a couple of days ago, and I went to save it, and PS crashed.
    Every other program (Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc.) has an auto-save/auto-recover feature. Why doesn't PS have one? It seems silly for it not to.

    This has been discussed in several other threads, so do a search. As far as I'm concerned any such request doesn't make sense given how PS currently works and how the file format is structured. There's simply no realistic and safe way to save potentially large files in a few (micro-)seconds before a crash nor would that work as an auto-backup. Too many external factors and constant disk activity would have other negative side-effects... If you get my meaning: It's one thing to save a few kilobytes from a Word document in a few blips, but a totally different one shuffling around gigabytes.

    Why doesn't apple have a file of events that ties to the iCal program and the Address book file? By having that relationship it seems that you could call up all of the events tied to a customer while in the address book or likewise call up all of the events tied to a contact that was in the iCal program as a scheduled meeting. Even in the to do's you could easily look back at the events tied to an individual so as to bring yourself up to speed with what you were doing with the individual in mind.

        I definitely understand your concern and I apologize for all the frustration. Verizon Wireless has a strong customer commitment to delivering the best from our service and staff. I am disappointed to hear the service you received did not reflect this commitment.
    I definitely want to help get to the bottom of this and further assist you. Please reply to my direct message so I can access your account and further assist. I am sure we can get this resolved.

    For one thing, true call blocking (ie. where the call NEVER actually connects through to your number) can only be done by the service provider at their switches.
    The best a device can do is allow the call to connect, and then use the caller ID information to compare that to a list of allowed and a list of disallowed caller IDs.  That is a feature known as blacklisting, but it is not the same as actually blocking a call completely.
    So as suggested, contact your carrier and ask what they can do for you.

  • Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices

    Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices?
    As a apple customer I feel that is very important that we are  offered some type of insurance plan to cover our devices if it is stolen besides the AppleCare which is offered that only cover software issues. We as consumers spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on our devices and if it is stolen we are not compensated for it at all which I think is totally unfair. We the consumer put our lives and in some cases our life savings into our devices and this should be taking into consideration By implementing a  insurance plan which allows consumers to choose the type of coverage plans allows the customer to feel more secure with there purchase.

    Well...   Usually the deductible is high enough to make it barely worth the claim.  Once you claim you may also find your insurance rates go up for several years.  The rule of thumb is don't claim unless you're talking at least $1000.  In that regard it could be useful if somebody offered separate insurance, though I suspect one might wonder why one was paying $50 or whatever per year for insurance on a single item versus just paying a bit more for a lower deductible on the homeowner's that would cover a host of items.
    Qbangz:  I have almost always had renter's insurance or the equivalent, even when I stayed in a dorm at college.  If somebody decides not to have it then that's a personal choice, but it is available.

  • Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Unless Apple decides to incorporate it with the iPhone and other iOS devices, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone API's for security and other reasons which Google is clueless about with Android. The most insecure mobile operating system by far.
    Apple plans to incorporate some of that under iOS 8.

  • Why doesn't iTunes add protected MPEG-4 audio files to its music library?

    Why doesn't iTunes add protected MPEG-4 audio files to its music library?  I copied these files to my iMac from an old PC laptop that no longer has internet access.

    After downloading via iTunes, I move MP3 files from the default iTunes podcast folder to another folder (on an a external disk), I also change the name of the file and I change some MP3-tags.
    You download from the iTunes store, delete the podcast, mess with it, move it around, rename it, change the tags then try to add it back to iTunes?
    I want all my files in one index, the iTunes Music Library
    In iTunes, right click - get info, click the Options tab and set *Media Kind:* to Music.
