When I try to sign in to a site, Firefox prevents the site from redirecting me to the page I want to sign on to. How do I tell it to let the page redirect me?
this happens frequently, most recently just now when I tried to sign in to Apple for information on an update

See:
- Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

Thanks. That seems to do it.
