Hey guys,
If you are stuck on this, the solution is GVFS.
The way GVFS works is, it creates a folder in ~/.gvfs which behaves like
a local filesystem to enable access to all applications that don't
support network shares.
(my specs: ubuntu 12.04 - firefox 16.x)
This process will require that
Hi Kyle,
thank you for your tips! But the issue remains the same after 6 years, this
affects not only firefox but chromium too.

I've been using the below workaround for some years - it works even
better with a startup script to mount network drives from bookmarked
items
grep smb:// ~/.gtk-bookmarks|cut -d ' ' -f 1|xargs gvfs-mount
but -its still a workaround and really needs a fix in firefox's file
browser
To help users
I have the same issue with a fresh upgrade to 12.04 , Firefox 14,
Epiphany 3.4.1 and Opera 12.01, I can even see my network places when I
need to upload a file using any of my web browser . It is really a
shame!! It was working with 10.04.

Another workaround that can fit some needs : use the package autofs
You can configure it so that it mounts your network shares in a location like
/mnt/autofs/servername/share
You can then put a bookmark on this directory, and it seems to be always
displayed in open/save dialogs (tested on
May I reopen this issue?
It looks like it still affects many people, in recent versions of Firefox (7+)
and Ubuntu (11.10, and 12.04 beta 1), and WITH firefox-gnome-support installed.
I suppose I should reopen on firefox package, not firefox-3.0?

There is another bug on Launchpad for the same issue on other software :

I confirm it's a big problem when you often use network shares.
One can mount them permanently in fstab, of course, but it only works if this
share is always up.
Comment #33 provides a nice workaroud, but all the applications should
use gvfs correctly. Just as (as an instance) evince does.

Hi,
Natty, Firefox 7 - the sames problem. No bookmarks to samba disks, no
mounted samba shares. It's a huge minus if we consider firefox as
corporate desktop!

This problem also affects use of OpenOffice 3.2
AFAIK its all simply due to filesystem enumeration having a problem with

to network shares in OO3.2 and
Discovered it here with the latest Firefox on Lucid.
1. Open Nautilus and locate the .gvfs directory in your home directory

3. Rename the “Link to .gvfs” to something like “Network”
4. Drag the entry from

Ignoring that for the moment... this ultimately depends on the Mozilla

deprecated
We're bitten as well. I've gotten many requests for this here at the
office (we use SFTP+Thunderbird for email, hence this operation is very
often used). For me using Gmail, I have to do the whole .gvfs-dance in
