How can I lockdown options in Firefox 10.0.7esr so I can deploy in the enterprise?

I have some settings in the file user.js and those who seem to be working, but I cannot lockdown a user to change the automatic 'updates' option I can set the parameter to "never check updates", but I can't lock it. How can I lock it down to a user cannot change the setting? Our environment is very tight and the user cannot install software or download the software from the internet, so we need to lock the setting.

The "lockPref" statement that I used in my mozilla.cfg file was not properly typed. It is a case sensitive order and I didn't have the capital "P". Once I put the 'P' uppercase everything worked as expected. Thanks for the help.

  • After updating Firefox, the font on my screen size has been reduced for all applications. How can I increase the size of the font on my screen?

    After the update, the next screen shows all the letters in smaller characters, with fewer pixels. All screens are like that now, and I found nothing in Firefox Help content. It is a problem because I have vision problems. So, how can I increase the font size that had it before? My screen is approximately 20 inches wide.

       Also, any chance I can change all the font to Arial instead of Times New Roman?

    Make sure the bookmarks toolbar is visible and "Bookmarks Toolbar items" are always placed on the bookmarks toolbar.

    If the menu bar is hidden, then press F10, or press and hold the ALT key, which should make the "menu bar" appear.

    Make sure the toolbars like the toolbar 'Navigation' and the 'personal bar' are visible: "view > toolbars".

    • Open the Customize via "view > toolbars > customize" or "Firefox > Options > toolbars" (Linux, Windows)
    • Make sure the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" are on the personal bar
    • If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the bookmarks toolbar, then FRY it in the toolbar palette in the window the bookmarks toolbar Customize
    • If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items which do not appear in the palette of the toolbar or a toolbar, then click on the button "Restore Default Set"

  • FireFox is no longer crash recovery of open tabs. Management of tab has changed. How can I get the old behavior?

    All my old tabs are missing after a crash. I chose "view my tabs, windows and last time ', like the start option. Many unwanted changes in tab management happened recently. For example when I close a tab in a window of the two tab, I see a blank screen (see picture). Preview display seems to be broken (see attachment). How can I get the old behaviour back?

    After researching the issue, it seems that the problem was a problem of NoScript configuration. After restoring NoScript to the default values, the tab number disappeared.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Response of local folders looks like the answer to the discussion group. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly?

    Please see image attached. Responses from the eyes of local folders as responses to the discussion groups. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly, as they are in the Inbox?

    I don't think that the format of replies to the messages in the local folders are linked with focus groups or to individual account settings. As local folders can contain messages between several accounts or identities, it is more likely that formatting uses the setting of the account or identity appearing in the: field when you reply.

    This is how I think it should work. How this works in practice may be different.

  • How can I transfer the profile/bookmarks between firefox 2-facilities

    HELO!

    First of all, what has caused the problem:
    A few days ago the partition C of the HD-Drive with Win7 OS and firefox installation crashed due to problems with the poles (according to the error messages). I tried to solve the problem with chkdsk, win-repair and standard controls, but did not work. Win7 starts before don't appear the indirect balls or sometimes until the mouse coursor on a black screen appears but stays there. Other partitions - data - work well as before. I recognized that I can get access to the operating system partition by clicking on command prompt in the repair-win7 environment. All files and folders are still there.

    I installed another HD of the same type (first as a simple reader) and also installed the same operating system and the firefox browser to search for advice. After that, I put the old HD as a slave in the PC. All partitions seems ok. but one with OS Dionysius access. The diskmanagement under control of system shows no problem with any partition. All partitions are correctly identified and have a drive letter properly. Only access to the first partition contains the operating system and firefox is always denied.

    WHAT I TRIED (YOU WANT TO):
    I booted the system with the command prompt without booting win7 (not the Win7-command prompt in a window) and I copied the profile completely of the old installation of firefox on the old HD C: on the new HD with the creation of all records by hand and xcopy all files in all folders (E:\Users\ (username) \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default (xxx for the characters/name firefox createt)) to a subfolder on the new C:. Then I chose this profile using the Profile Manager for ff. The name of the profile-folder (and subfolders) were exactly picked up the old facility with all the files of the old installation on the old HD.

    BUT WHEN I STARTED FF AGAIN TO AN UNFORESEEN SITUATION, PROFILE AND ESPECIALLY THE BOOKMARKS WERE SIMILAR EVEN BEFORE (A BIT OF THE NEW FACILITY INSTEAD OF THE HUNDREDS OF THE OLD PROFILE).

    So I ask for advice, how can I get the old profile/bookmarks to the new system. Or perhaps - if anyone knows - how I could run the old ffox at least once more to save the bookmarks by using the bookmark backup. (I made a backup but it was too long ago, a lot of new bookmarks have been added in the last time).

    I would be very grateful for any advice or information problem.

    With greetings

    How can I move the button reload of the page in firefox OSX for next to the back button where it was before I updated.
    I know there is an addon for windows Classic theme, but I need a fix for osx... its very frustrating when you update and things like this change and can be customized to the way we are used to using the browser. his counter intuitive to have the page button refresh so far from the back and home buttons.

    never mind, I found the preferences in the addon manager... Thanks again!
