Prevent Google to use the Firefox geolocation feature

Not to be paranoid, but how google to stop using the Firefox geolocation feature? It only adds time of loading web sites, not to mention that I don't particularly like someone my follow-up visit. (ironic I use gmail, isn't it?)

== happens all the time crazy

Google claim they do only because the demand of Firefox. They say http://www.google.com/intl/en/privacy-lsf.html "the Firefox Geolocation feature will make requests to Google only if you tell the function to do. For more information about your choices, please see the Firefox Privacy policy. "

As far as I can see the Firefox Privacy options (Tools/options/privacy) don't let you stop Firefox revealling your location. Does anyone know how to do this?

    When I do a search using the Firefox browser or Google engine, I want only a page of research. That I have scroll, Firefox is now automatically load page second, third, etc., as a scrolling down. How can I stop this?

    Could you give the address of the search results page where you get "loading without end? It is not normal that the standard Google search engine plugin that comes with Firefox, but you might have a different plugin.

    Some add-ons have this feature, including those with similar names to the 'autopager"and probably many others. You could review your active extensions on page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: command + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, take a critical look on the list on the right side. I suggest turning off one you forgot to install. Those who have Options buttons may be worth exploring to see if it is a feature, you can disable.

  • I have somehow added a splitter to my browser screen. When I open firefox there are 2 screens with separate scroll bars. I do not use the add on feature that allows the separation of the screen. I can't find a command to remove the 2nd screen.

    The left side of my browser's screen has a screen separate with its own scroll bar. I can use the cursor to draw this screen to halfway to the right. It has a separate web page as the main window. I can't find a command to remove it. I had a yahoo toolbar, I thought that may have been involved.

    You can open a Web site in the sidebar.

    Opening in the sidebar is the default value for the bookmarks created via a link or a button on a Web site.

    You can view the properties of a bookmark using the context menu in the side bar (Ctrl + B; Cmd + B on Mac).

    In the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) you can click on the button more in the lower details pane on the right.

    Make sure "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

  • I use the FireFox browser, so what do I use it instead of Flash to be able to watch videos without going to Chrome, IE or another browser?

    Since Firefox is disable Adobe Flash, what do I use to watch videos or play games that require a Flash drive?

    Adobe released an update yesterday to solve critical problems, he admitted were in the 18.0.0.203 version. You can get 18.0.0.209 on this page:

    https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    In the first table, find the row corresponding to "browser plugin", and you can use either the EXE or the MSI installer.

    No one can promise that this kind of block will never happen. If that happens, if you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and usually (but not always) one of the following values: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.

    But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! It will just sit there in case you later want.

  • How do I sync and import/export bookmarks between different users on the same computer and two using the Firefox browser?

    All the help instructions are to import and export bookmarks bookmarks between different brands of browsers.

    Assuming that each of these different users use a different profile of Firefox. You can use the built in Fx4 Sync feature. Click on Setup Sync in the menu selections, create an account and then have each user created their profile to use this new account synchronization. It syncs more bookmarks; things like history, passwords, etc. So if it's only the bookmarks you are concerned with that, use customize only synchronize bookmarks when you set up each user. Good luck and have fun in sync.

  • Web development Toolbox prevents me from using the letter upercase, special characters and all that requires the use of the SHIFT key. Help.

    whenever I press the SHIFT key, the web development Toolbox opens. I am unable to use the letter upercase, special characters and everything that requires the SHIFT key. It's really annoying me... i can't even use an exclamation mark111111

    The sounds you have a sticky key which is in the pressed state.

    Do you mean the box tools that should open via Ctrl + Shift + K or open more to the Toolbox that is displayed via Ctrl + F2?

    Try to press the keys involved several times, see the Web Developer menu for the shortcut keys.

  • Xfinity e-mail will be totally charged using the firefox browser, as it did in the past

    I can display my email using Explorer but can't get all my folders when opening xfinity in the Firefox browser. Says loading but will not load saved emails. Help

    Change your preference of Xfinity Connect Connect Lite. If you cannot open the preferences of the overview page of the Inbox by using Firefox, make this change using IE.

    It worked last spring when Comcast first deployed on the update of Zimbra Comcast Xfinity Connect, but later in the summer, they 'fixed' something and broke this overview page of the Inbox for Firefox users.
