Hi, what is happening now? For example:

You click something in the page to allow access to your location, but Firefox doesn't show a drop-down panel asking for your approval.

Does a special icon appear at the left end of the address bar next to the shield? That is the icon for allowing or blocking site access to location.

If you don't see that icon, location permission might be denied for the site or for all sites. Could you try this:

  • Press Ctrl+i to call up the Page Info dialog
  • At the top, click Permissions
  • Scroll down to "Access Your Location"
  • Uncheck the "Use Default" box

Firefox should show a bullet in front of the current behavior. If it shows Block, you can make a site exception here (for example, Always Ask). If it shows Always Ask, then it really should be working already.

More info on that option and where it might be globally blocked: Does Firefox share my location with websites?
