Keyboard Navigation Guide

Fixing Keyboard Focus in Firefox on Mac

If you encounter issues being able to focus via the keyboard on a Mac while using Firefox, there is likely an OS level preference causing this. There are two ways around this:

  1. System Preferences
    • → Keyboard
    • → Shortcuts (pane)
    • → Check “all controls” radio button at bottom
  2. Firefox Configuration
    • → Enter about:config into the URL bar
    • → Right click in the table
    • → New > Integer
    • → Preference Name = “accessibility.tabfocus”
    • → Value = 7
