| 1442290 | 2017-11-21 07:54:00 | How do I stop FF from doing that every time? (I may have the exact working kinda fudged-up here, but youse gets my drift - right?) I've been to FF advanced settings and I cannot find the place to turn it off. |

| 1442291 | 2017-11-21 08:03:00 | Which page? That's usually the website's fault. | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 1442292 | 2017-11-21 08:17:00 | Every page I open with a click - like from my Gmail inbox, I click on an email link and the next page opens with that warning banner on the top. I then have to "ALLOW" FF to go there. |

Youse guys kept me up until 3 AM working on the 32 bit v 64 bit Dropbox problem . I don't know how Dave saw that though . I am sure I clicked on the 64 bit version . . . . but maybe not . |

| 1442295 | 2017-11-21 18:35:00 | Dont know what version of FF you are using, but just checked mine 57, and by default its off. Found this article: (1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk. (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste access and pause while the list is filtered (3a) TO TURN OFF: If the accessibility.blockautorefresh preference is bolded and "modified" or "user set" to true, double-click it to restore the default value of false (3b) TO TURN ON: Double-click the accessibility.blockautorefresh preference to switch it from false to true |

| 1442296 | 2017-11-21 19:55:00 | OK - I can see that in my Studio 'puter, but this Ubuntu version I cannot see a way to turn FF ON . The reason I sent it away was because it took up too much real estate in that bar and I was approaching full and I don't know what happens then . So - it had to go since it was troublesome anyway . What I did was remove it from the sidebar - which this distro uses, and I have no idea where it went from there . Is banishing it permanent? Now I'd like to 'un-banish' it . I see it in the list of Ubuntu Software, and the only option there is to REMOVE it . That must mean that it is a resident and accessible SOMEWHERE - but I can't find a way to click it back into existence . |

| 1442298 | 2017-11-21 20:27:00 | Actually that doesn't seem to work but you can just drag and drop the icon to the launcher. | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
| 1442299 | 2017-11-22 01:05:00 | Man !!! I don't get an icon when I Google for FF . All I get is an HTTPS:// etc, etc . Do you want me to drag that to the sidebar? Because the bar won't open when I do . I even went so far as to not hide the sidebar and try to put FF there but it won't work either . So I sent my sidebar into hiding again . I like it that way . |
