[Affected OS]:
-Mac 

[Affected versions]:

1. Install Firefox version 44.* 
2. Outofdate notifications system add-on required configurations:
2.1 about:config set extensions.systemAddon.update.url to value 	"https://aus5.mozilla.org/update/3/SystemAddons/%VERSION%/%BUILD_ID%/%BUILD_TARGET%/%LOCALE%/release-sysaddon/%OS_VERSION%/%DISTRIBUTION%/%DISTRIBUTION_VERSION%/update.xml"

4. Force system addons check : Open Tool/WebDeveloper/Web Console and run the snippet:   " Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm"); AddonManagerPrivate.backgroundUpdateCheck(); "

In the Tools/ WebDeveloper/BrowserConsole a similar line should be listed: "addons.productaddons INFO Downloading from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/system-addons/outofdate-notifications/[e-mail] to /tmp/tmpaddon"

5. Restart FF to install the OutOfDate System Addon - !!!! Do not open About:Support to check if updates are being downloaded --> use about:support


[Steps]:
1. Open FF44.* 
2. Navigate through page using keyboard only, use "TAB" key, and select OutofDate notification bar.

[Expected Result]:
Out of Date notification bar can be selected and "Get Firefox" button can be activated if you push Enter.

[Actual Result]:
The Out Of Date notification bar can't be selected and "Get Firefox" button can be triggered.


Note: I also tried with Adobe Flash with FF Nightly 51.0a1(2016-08-09), here are the steps:

1. Set Flash to ask-to-activate in about:addons.
2. Open any website with Flash content, for example cnn.com.

If I choose "Continue Blocking", "Allow" buttons, with TAB key I should be able to triggered them if I hit "Enter", but this action can be performed because "Enter" doesn't do nothing. In this second scenario the buttons can be selected with TAB key, but in the first scenario

The Enter key shouldn't invoke these buttons. The Space key should, though. The Enter key only invokes the "default button" on Mac (like the OK button in dialog).

Thanks for clearing this out, I have tried with Space key and it works. 
Stephen I think we should close this as Resolved Invalid, what is your opinion?
