Problems opening Office 365's webmail's e-mail's links to launch MS Teams mac OS app in Firefox?

Brass Contributor

This was in an updated mac OS v10.14.6 and Firefox v78.0.1. I had to keeping redownloading its app to join MS teams meetings. :(

 

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

What kind of problema? Please describe them or share a screenshot

Clicking to join the meeting invite link in e-mail doesn't launch MS Teams app. Can't show screen shots since no errors or anything. It just doesn't work.

@AntDude Ok, your browser's version is not supported by Teams.

Here's a complete list of supported browser.

On a Mac, Chrome works nice.

@AntDude It looks like this is a bug in the latest version of Firefox. I found a post on Reddit about it:

As a workaround, the link to open Teams will work if you have the Firefox Developer Tools open. (Either click on Menu > Web Developer > Toggle Tools, or press the F12 key.)

@Ryan SteeleWow. Good find since it was working in the past. I wonder who has to fix it. Mozilla? MS? Both?
