<p>Long time User of Firefox. Everyone day, one of the first sites I read is <a href="http://WSJ.com" rel="nofollow">WSJ.com</a>. Recently (now running 89.0 Firefox) the <a href="http://WSJ.com" rel="nofollow">WSJ.com</a> website has been totally jumbled. I cross checked it on Chrome, where it was working fine. I have reported this to <a href="http://WSJ.com" rel="nofollow">WSJ.com</a>, and now also to Firefox. Is there a new setting requirement in Firefox 89.0 for that page?  This is the only regular site I visit where this is occurring. </p><p>Any insights? </p>

<p>Hello, After a Firefox browser Mac OS update (89.0) the "send to device" doesn't work anymore. It is not really that it does not work, the function is no longer available through the three points that were located in the toolbar. The three dots have disappeared from the browser. </p><p>On the contrary, in my Android Firefox (89.1.1 Build # 2015812947) the three points are still in place, and therefore I can access "Send to Device". The function was working yesterday. I was sending few Tabs from my Android to my Mac. But not today, the dots are there, the "Send to Device also, but is not working. </p><p>Also from Android to my PC is working, I can receive Tabs from my Firefox installed in my Android. I can't find the version. From PC well, the three dots also have disappeared from the browser. </p><p>Any help appreciate, thatks </p>

<p>Firefox allows the show  password option  in the firefox  password manager This is an extremely dangerous situation as it gives someone access to all your passwords if they have your windows login and your Firefox password is saved in Windows.  </p><p>This means that if you save your Firefox password to Windows, and someone gets access to your PC, they can get a copy and read of all of your account names and account passwords in the Firefox password manager.  </p><p>Access opporrunities for example are a technical support person working on your windows account. </p><p>A security update should change this to encrypt stired passwords and remove the show password option in the Firefox Password Manager. </p>

<p>After the Firefox upgrade to version 89, the icons disappeared from the menu. When I look at the changes page, I see that they have been specifically removed. In my case, the functionality of the Firefox menu has been severely compromised by losing those icons. So far, I’ve used those icons as a mechanism for faster navigation between different points. Because it is faster to recognize a single icon (character) than to read text. In the past, toolbar items overlapped menu items with icons. And now not. Not only that, the layout of the menu items has changed. </p><p>My suggestion would be to return the icons. And make them show / hide through settings. </p><p><br> I am not an English speaker, so I apologize if there are various errors in the text. </p>

<p>I have set a primary password in Firefox. Sometimes, the password prompt appears out of nowhere. For example, I have Firefox running in the background while I'm using a completely different application, and suddenly, the password prompt appears, asking me for my Firefox primary password. </p><p>This is very distracting, so I'm wondering if it's possible to configure Firefox to ask me for my primary password only while I'm using it. I don't care if the prompt appears as soon as I start Firefox, or whenever a new page is opened that requires a password. The only important thing is that the password prompt doesn't distract me while I'm using a different application. </p><p>Thanks in advance for any hints. </p>

<p>I deplore the way the browser looks now and want the old look back...  I have vision problems and am totally ignorant about computers.  I finally found FF and the last version was PERFECT.  I could clearly see it, knew how to use it, and LOVED it and I WANT IT BACK.  SIMPLY...  Because I am so ignorant, the instructions I have seen so far might have been written in a  foreign language.  Is there a SIMPLE way to restore the OLD LOOK and feel.  Keeping all the new security and other stuff is fine...although I was fine with the way it was, but I will have to find another browser if someone cannot help me fix the image back to the way it was.  Please, why do they upgrade this stuff and not leave a way to keep the old look for those of us who don't want to change?  If anyone can help me...I would really appreciate it.   Thank you. </p>

creator: mazeteam
content:
<p>Following a recent update to version 89, a previously stable Firefox installation is now almost completely unusable. Just getting to the point of getting to this page where I am writing this post has seen THREE Firefox crashes, as switching tab to my email so as to get the verification code for my mozilla account was seemingly too much for Firefox to handle. Viewing Facebook messages and scrolling up to see comments made earlier in the day sees the layout of the page completely screwed up (main content shifted to bottom right corner, scrollbar shifted elsewhere, part of the page blank) and at that point trying to switch to another tab creates a strange hybrid situation where some of the contents from both tabs is merged together and is then the only content visible no matter which tab is then clicked on. Using Google Maps works for about 30 seconds and then the entire page flashes repeatedly with every move of the mouse, before this triggers a browser crash. I can be reading content on a news website and suddenly the tab crashes for no reason, and in most cases the browser then crashes thereafter. Restarting the browser and the news page tab will be shown and begin to load but then immediately crashes. These are just some of the issues that have occurred within just the past 2 hours, but this is a cumulative effect as Firefox has been becoming increasingly unstable to this point after updating to version 89 earlier in the week.... No other changes have been made since updating Firefox, here has been no Windows 10 updates, no other applications have been installed or updated, no other software has been either added or removed.  </p><p>I could run the previous version of Firefox for several days, leaving the computer running but idle for a few hours each day, and still come back and resume where I had left off without issue. Now with Firefox 89 it is struggling to even go 30 minutes without tabs or the entire browser crashing. When can we expct a fix, or is there otherwise a way to roll back Firefox to version 88 without having to do a full uninstall/reinstall...? </p>

<p>I'm running Windows 7. I have Webroot SecureAnywhere. Starting immediately after I upgraded to Firefox Version 89.0, whenever I go to a site, and open a picture, the picture loads from the top down (as it is supposed to, I think). But- now it loads slowly (prior to upgrading to FF Version 89.0, it loaded instantaneously), and it starts loading from the top in white, as the picture "fills in." ('Wish I could take a screen shot, but- by the time I open screen snip, the picture has already loaded.) I don't have my hardware accelerator enabled. I tried safe mode. In safe mode, this doesn't occur. Also, when I use Internet Explorer, this problem does not occur. Again- this problem started IMMEDIATELY after I upgraded to FF Version 89.0. NO other changes to my computer before this problem began. What is the problem? Thanks, for any help. </p>

<p>Dear Firefox community, I do not know why you are not solving your browser-short time memory loss problem! When I download a video / file, the internet is disconnected in the middle, and it takes a while to connect, then the download starts again from 0%! It wastes both my time and the internet. If the power connection is disconnected while downloading again - I don't get any backup of that file when I connect to the internet after the power connection is restored ...! However, other browsers have this advantage. I like Firefox a lot, but this short time memory loss system bothers me a lot. I hope to fix this issue in the next update.

Po podaniu danych po prostu nic się nie dzieje. po wybraniu lotu "Z" i "DO" oraz dowolnego terminu otrzymuję komunikat: "Brak lotów w wybranym dniu". Równolegle sprawdzam na drugim komputerze i wszystko działa prawidłowo. Próbowałem: "Rozwiązywanie podstawowych problemów", "Firefox nie wczytuje witryn internetowych – inne przeglądarki tak", "Rozwiązywanie problemów z rozszerzeniami i motywami", "Diagnozowanie problemów z Firefoksem przy użyciu trybu rozwiązywania problemów", "Funkcję odświeżenia Firefoksa" Wyłączyłem wszystkie dodatki, wszystko krok po kroku i nic nie podziałało. Rezerwowałem bilety zawsze z tego komputera przez 5 ostatnich lat, ostatnio 25 kwietnia i działało. Nie próbowałem jedynie zainstalować firefoxa wcześniejszego, ale po prostu go nie mam... Poza tym wersja 89 działa poprawnie na drugim komputerze (win10) Czy mógłby ktoś podać jeszcze jakieś sugestie? Windows 7 prof, Firefox 89.0 (64 bity) </p>

<p>Firefox installed on my other PC is beyond repair. Won't open and won't reinstall. The app is unusable. Tried to refresh with no success. Tried to uninstall and reinstall but it will not do a full uninstall. And when I reinstall, it just re-installs the same glitchy version and it will not do a fresh install. After install, the same bookmarks from the glitchy version are present and the app will still not work. It's completely unusable.  Any thoughts? </p>

It does not go back or show the recent history. Neither going to a different site nor opening a new tab or window helps. Rebooting solves the problem temporarily. </p><p>I have not determined whether the problem arises after visiting any particular sites. </p>

<p>Windows 10 Firefox 88/89 64-bit PC It seems there was a compact mode before version 89? I don't know if that's what I want. </p><p>I would like to have a simple selection in FF Preferences to turn OFF the Proton stuff. I am not an IT geek and I'm not comfortable doing things like changing CSS code - if I knew how to do that stuff, I'd be using Linux not Windows. Since I'm stuck with Windows, I rely on a good browser like FF v.88 to take care of the technical stuff. </p><p>Version 89 seems to be OK with Proton shut off, but I hear this is a temporary fix. I also don't know if shutting off Proton fixed the spacing nightmare in Bookmarks - I lost mine reloading v.88 and haven't had a chance to look for them. (v.89 is on the PC upstairs - this one is still on v.88.) </p><p>For some context on the anger at FF's change, those of us who use Facebook on a regular basis were forced into a horrendous update in late 2021 which barely works, and Facebook continuously changes code, fixing what isn't broken. To find that the browser we've relied on for years did the same with no warning is very upsetting. </p><p>I'd like to get a message directly to Mozilla but "Submit Feedback" has been shut down for over a week. </p>

She is use to her firefox home page search bar displaying the suggestions below the search bar. Her firefox homepage, google search bar(in the middle of the screen), now, once you start to type it jumps to the address bar / search bar (at the top).  How do I make the firefox homepage search suggestions stay under the firefox homepage search bar rather then jump to the top address bar location when I start to type in the home screen search bar (middle of the screen). Note: another user prefers the address bar to search, so both options need to be available. I hope I was able to describe my problem well enough to get it solved. Best wishes! </p>

<p>I just updated Firefox on an older laptop.  Due to the age of the old version, I could not update Firefox but had to download and install the latest version (the old v was a couple of years old).  I exported my bookmarks with no problem but could not find in the old version where to export my passwords.  So I took screen shots of each of the password pages.  When I installed the new version of FF, it found my bookmarks and imported them with no problem.  It did not find and import my passwords (#@$#@!!).  Sooooo...  I spent all morning going to each page with saved logins, reentering my login info, and saving it.  When I tried to go back to the pages, NO LOGIN INFORMATION WAS SAVED!  WTFF?!  I went into the password manager and there were NO PASSWORDS SAVED.  I tried to enter the password info and it would not save them and instead gave me an error.  Trying to create a new master password gave me an error. </p><p>WHAT do I need to do to get this...  software...  to save my frickin' login information and passwords??!! </p><p>NOT a happy camper right now!  I have used FF for going on 20 years or so and am not a newbie or an amateur at this (which is why I screenshot all the password pages!).   </p><p>OH, this is my SECOND attempt at asking support for help, the first time everything was lost when I tried to add a screen shot of the errors...

Jak dostat na kompy předchozí verzi a jak zabránit, aby se aktualizací zase zničila? Zajímá mě postup na W10 i na Xubuntu - tam vic. </p>

<p>I have my Firefox settings to open search results links in a new tab. I can get this to happen with Google, but I *rarely* use it. I prefer Bing. My settings are for links to open in a new tab, and they won't do that with Bing. </p><p>I have read what others have suggested about fixing this problem. I made changes in about:config with no result. I opened in Firefox safe mode and didn't find anything on my own. Will check out any tips though. </p><p>This has only recently become an issue. I know that Ads have always opened in the same tab and I do not care to right-click or use ctrl.  </p><p>Another issue I suddenly had with the latest new design update was that when I used the Bing search box, it started switching to an address bar search. I was able to fix that. </p><p>Anyone know a sure cure? </p>

content:
<p>I have noticed that when I manually log in into <a href="http://accounts.google.com" rel="nofollow">accounts.google.com</a> with no prior cookies in the browser and no association with a google account prior to that, it automatically logs me into sites like <a href="http://youtube.com" rel="nofollow">youtube.com</a>, even with the strictest cookie policies (tried with Strict, custom+cross-site and custom+third-party). I do not particularly mind privacy wise since I'll log into them with the same account anyways, but as far as I understood, there should be absolutely no way this should happen. Cookies should be isolated by domain, I have uBlock Origin installed which prevents cookie sharing between domains by setting some CNAME records in subdomains (Uncloak canonical names), and afaik Firefox does not automatically read the google account cookies and share them around - if it did, that would be even more serious. So what is happening here and how can I change that? This seems to be a serious issue that I'm honestly not comfortable with out of principle since I chose the strictest settings. </p>

<p>Hi everyone! </p><p>When I browse the web with Firefox, it happens that the system becomes completely unresponsive. Some web pages seems to make Firefox using a lot of RAM and write a lot on the hard drive. I cannot actually say much more, because it not even possible to login in a console. The system is too slow and the console login times out... Firefox (or Web Content) writes wildly on the hard drive. </p><p>I used the Firefox provided by my Linux distribution (Linux Mint), but also the one downloaded from <a href="http://mozilla.org" rel="nofollow">mozilla.org</a>. The problem seems to be less frequent for the second, but it happend nevertheless. </p><p>The point is that this problem with Firefox happens sometimes, for example, when I forget the browser open on somehow demanding webpage (like in newspapers where there are a lot of media, graphics, and so on). </p><p>A point is also that I cannot replicate this "bug". If now I browsed the same pages that made the mess, nothing would probably happen. </p><p>I thought it had to do with the swap, but the system hanged both when the swap space was enabled and when it was disabled. </p><p>I saved a copy of the profile (and the cache) after the last crash, if they could be useful. The last time I had actually to force the shutdown of the computer, because there was no way to regain control over it. </p><p>Any ideas? </p><p>Thank you for your answers! </p>

<p>Buongiorno, ho installato e uso come browser principale Firefox su MacBook Pro 15" 2019 (aggiornato all'ultima versione 89), Firefox 34 per iOS (sia su iPhone XS che su iPad generazione 6 2018). Premetto che i miei dispositivi sono aggiornati al firmware più recente, e navigo sempre in piena banda (soprattutto a casa con rete internet a 200Mb/s). In pratica accade spesso che Firefox Sync non aggiorni le pagine tra i dispositivi, e anzi se inizio la ricerca con più tab sul Mac, poi dopo anche 2-3 ore prendo l'iPhone (collegato sulla stessa rete) e le schede non si aggiornano; per poter visualizzare tutto devo forzare la sincronizzazione ogni volta sia su Mac che su iPhone. Come posso fare per aumentare la frequenza della sincronizzazione in modo automatico? Ringrazio in anticipo. </p>

<p>When trying to access the Google Developer Profile webpage on Firefox desktop, I encounter many errors.  I can't sign in a lot of the times, sometimes I kind of get in but it says my profile isn't finished even though it is.  I ended up creating it with MS Edge and accessing it that way after I had done a couple of the Kotlin training exercises to make sure my progress was getting saved.  Many other times I get a 404 message; the errors I get vary a bit. </p><p>I have even tried starting Firefox in safe mode just to disable all extensions and add-ons, still with no luck. </p><p>It is only with Firefox Desktop that I am having this issue.  When I use my Android device and bring it up on Firefox mobile, I don't have any of these issues.  I see my profile and badges just fine. </p>

<p>I'm using the new version 89 of Firefox. Often, when I'm reading an article from a website, the screen suddenly zooms in, the letters become huge, and the page no longer fits on my computer screen. Am I doing something to cause this? It's really annoying and it has me wondering if I should abandon Firefox after all these years for something else. </p><p>Does anyone else have this experience? I've only noticed it with version 89? </p>

<p>I link nelle pagine spesso non funzionano, cioè non sono cliccabili. Sono costretto a ricaricare le pagine più volte. Anche quando scrivo un post, quandosposto il mouse sul pulsante blu "Pubblica", il cursore del mouse resta a forma di freccia e non diventa a forma di indice, e "Pubblica" non è cliccabile. Lo stesso dicasi sulle finestre di chat: se clicco su un nome e mi si apre la finestra per mandare un messaggio, spesso non riesco a scrivere (il campo dove scrivere non è cliccabile), e se riesco a scrivere spesso non riesco a inviare il messaggio. Questo mi succede su Firefox 89.0 (64bit) su Windows10 Home, versione 20H2. Qualche consiglio su come risolvere questo fastidioso problema? Nel caso, come disinstallare Firefox COMPLETAMENTE, così da installare una versione senza "contaminazioni"? </p>

Tenho tenho minha conta do Firefox, e engraçado que na Versão Mobile salva tudo normalmente. Também já desinstalei o Firefox e instalei novamente, também não funcionou. Aparentemente é algum erro com esse tal de Lockwise, que veio mais pra atrapalhar do que ajudar. Vou esperar alguma atualização vê se resolve, se não, voltarei a usar o Edge. Um abraço! </p>

<p>It used to be the case that, while scrolling, after taking my fingers away from the mousepad, that the pages I am viewing in Firefox would continue to move down, slowly coming to a halt. Now, instead, it comes to a sudden halt the moment I stop active scrolling, which honestly makes scrolling down long pages take a lot longer and I really just don't like how it feels. This only recently started happening, does anyone know how to make scrolling go back to the old way where it would keep moving in the direction you sent it in for a short while following? </p>

SECOND, when I have Firefox open and click on a link in an email, instead of the link opening in a new tab, it opens a second, "generic" version of Firefox; one that does not have my Bookmarks or Passwords. </p>

<p>2021Jun14 In Firefox 89.0, Google News main page 'Headlines' only loads 'Top Stories'. All other categories, e.g., U.S., Business, Entertainment, Technology, Sports, etc., do not appear as categories. They do appear on left hand column of Main page but when selected they display message 'Uh-oh, something went wrong. Please try again.' with a Reload link. Reload opens category but has no effect on what displays on Main page 'Headlines'. This problem does NOT exist when using Chrome - Google News works as usual in Chrome. </p>

<p>A link to my previous thread: <a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1339912" rel="nofollow">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1339912</a> </p><p>Recap: I was having what I believe were some kind of syncing issues, where none of my passwords would autofill, and I couldn't save new login information, and was getting logged out of websites that I would normally be perma-logged in to. At the same time, I have also been having connectivity issues where FF loses connection to my internet for around 5 minutes. Sometimes it would fix itself and other times I'd have to restart FF. Meanwhile, Chrome would run fine in the background so I know it's not my actual wifi but it's specific to FF. </p><p>I have tried the FF "refresh" and when that didn't fix it, I tried a full uninstall/reinstall which fixed my syncing/password autofill issues but not my connectivity issues. </p><p>Any other ideas?  I'm super bummed about this because I've used FF for many years and been so happy with it and have convinced so many friends to jump ship from Chrome over to FF. But I don't have time to keep troubleshooting this and it's looking more and more like I'll have to switch over to Chrome if I want to have a normal workday without frustrations and interruptions. </p>

<p>Bom dia Uso sempre o navegador Mozilla Firefox para navegar. Trabalho em um escritório de Contabilidade e sempre acesso sites de órgãos públicos para diversos serviços, como abrir e alterar empresas, emissão de alvará de Prefeituras e do Corpo de Bombeiros, Junta Comercial do Paraná e de Santa Catarina e prefeituras de diversos municípios nos estados do Paraná e Santa Catarina. Mas nos últimos dias tenho enfrentado problemas, especialmente na Prefeitura de Curitiba, sempre que tento emitir alvarás de localização e funcionamento das empresas, a tela não abre, fica a mensagem de conexão não segura.  Como hoje é quase tudo via internet, não deveria haver configuração de conexão não segura para sites de órgãos públicos. Todos os sites deverias de órgãos públicos deveria ter permissão de acesso, mesmo que o usuário tivesse que aceitar algum risco, mas jamais um site de órgão público deveria ser considerado inseguro e bloqueado automaticamente.  Será que poderiam resolver isso ou me dizer como configurar o acesso à todos os sites de órgãos públicos que preciso acessar diariamente? Estou tentado emitir uma alvará na Prefeitura de Curitiba-PR desde o dia 08/06/2021 e não estou conseguindo, sempre a mensagem de conexão não segura. E preciso muito emitir o alvará para finalizar o processo de regularização da empresa. Muito Obrigado. Leon Denis E-mail: lyon2109@bol.com.br </p>

There's a contextual menu choice that gives me the option of moving a tab to the beginning, end or a new window, but that only helps in ~10% of situations. What gives?? </p>

<p>It's very convenient to drag a url from the address bar into a bookmark folder, unless the folder has a lot of entries, then scrolling the list by dragging the new bookmark off bottom or top of the list to look for the intended destination, is too fast  &amp; prone to drop off top or bottom. </p><p>I guess this is something to do with scroll physics ?  but I tried a few hopeful looking possibles in about:config without success - very impressive all that, I had no idea.. but... it would make my work easier if I knew what to adjust.   </p><p>There are three regions where the cursor has different effects.  In the central region - where bookmarks and folders are displaye -, moving the cursor does not cause scrolling.  In the top &amp; bottom regions the cursor causes scrolling up and down respectively.  I imagine there is a parameter to control the proportionality between the distance from cursor to region-boundary &amp; scroll-speed.  Is this how it works ? Can I adjust that, or is there some other way to make this interaction more controllable ? </p><p>I'd be grateful for a reply, but even if not, I want to express my gratitude for the great work of this project.  It is amazing to see the resilience of open software against the tsunami of commercially driven development - good though some of that is.   It almost gives me hope for humanity ;-&gt; Thank you all </p>

I am specifically trying to run firefox with command line options on Windows 10 but I do not see that that should make any difference.

This is needed because Authy doesn't store your passwords on our servers as a security measure to protect your accounts. " So how do i disable in Firefox? I don't see an option in settings.

<p>Hi there, I'm facing a weird problem with YouTube. I don't know whether it has something to do with their server or the Firefox browser, but when I'm watching video there, every time when I'm playing the next video or click another video to be play, by the next page YouTube suddenly logged me out for no reason. I thought it must be the YouTube server was having problem.  </p><p>So to confirmed my assumption, I did the same thing on other browsers. Well, it work fine and YouTube didn't suddenly logged me out. From that, I knew it was Firefox browser was the problem. I tried to delete all the history and the other data, uninstall and re-install Firefox, and sign-out and sign-in my Firefox account. I did those things for like 3 times but it still happening. </p><p>I'm hoping that Firefox could fix this issue as soon as possible, cuz yeah I preferred using Firefox browser instead of others. </p><p>Thanks in advance... </p>

<p>Hello Firefox People again, Thank you for fixing the scrollbar color boxes! My scrollbars are all the right colors and size now and my options buttons are working.The dotted lines on all my webpages left and have returned to normal again...but I still can't get my firefox color extension to load up at all. I'm just wanting to know if you're working on it or not. I see a lot of other people are having not a few quiet fits over the colors being messed up here. I'm not going to yell at anybody though...I can see you have an awful lot of "I wants"and "I'm leavings" to deal with. I have Firefox version 88.1 handy just in case, but to me the security fixes are more important, so I'll stick around and wait for everything else to work. I will use the themes others have made for now. Crossing fingers for fixes so I can play. Have a great day/night! </p>

[Firefox v89.0 64bit] Screen reader stops working with Firefox whenever Firefox is closed and reopened

content:
<p>Hello! </p><p>I've been using Firefox with a screen reader for a few months now because I recently had issues arise with my vision and needed to get one. I use NVDA, which is a free screen reader, and before the update to version 89.0, it worked flawlessly, but the new update has created a unique issue that I haven't found a fix for. </p><p>Say hypothetically that I am using Firefox and my screen reader is working fine with it. If I close Firefox and then re-open it, all webpages, including the new tab page, can no longer be read by my screen reader. All it will speak is the tab title or the word "unknown" whenever focusing on the webpage. This also happens when the computer is first turned on. The only way I can temporarily fix the issue is by reinstalling Firefox via the latest installer I've gotten from Mozilla's site, and once the installer itself opens Firefox, it works again. If I close the program or restart my computer, I need to run the installer again to fix the issue. </p><p>This isn't too big of a deal for me, since it doesn't take long to run the installer and Firefox is reliable after that, but I could see this being a bigger issue for other people with vision issues if they aren't aware of the installer fix. Does anyone know of a solution for this problem? I know it's a rather specific issue that doesn't apply to a majority of Firefox users, but this is a notable accessibility issue that I wanted to bring up since there doesn't seem to be a permanent solution to the issue in version 89.0 of Firefox and nobody else has seemed to have reported the issue as of when I'm writing this. </p><p>Additionally, if this helps, my current installation of NVDA is marked at version 2020.4. If any more specific information is needed, please let me know and I will try to provide it as quickly as I can. I also don't know if this is necessarily an issue of Firefox needing to fix support with NVDA or if NVDA is the one I should be contacting about this, but just since I'm getting this odd behavior only when closing and re-opening Firefox, I wanted to ask here first. </p><p>Thank you! </p>

[SOLVED!] Firefox 89 Update: Can't Select Text, Drag Image, Use Scrollbar - EVERYTHING Drags Entire Window

content:
<p>[OK, I figured this out, but cannot delete this question, only edit it, so I've marked it as solved, and will add the solution below this initial question. Basically, it was due to my eternal battle with Mozilla's tabs bar placement, and the code I used to solve it] </p><p>Hi. After upgrading FF to 89 last night, besides the usual battle with Mozilla's insistence on moving the tabs to the very top, I've come across something that's quite serious, and rendering FF unusable: whenever I try to select some text, like on a page or in the Google search bar, the text cursor suddenly becomes the move cursor, and the entire window is dragged. The same is true when I try to drag an image directly into a folder. Also, forget trying to navigate a page by dragging the scrollbar - that initiates a drag of FF to another desktop (scrollbars within pages, like the one at the right of this text box I'm in, just try to drag FF up or down). So this is like holding Alt in Linux to click and drag the whole window in focus, and it's not something I asked for. The only thing I've been able to fix is dragging by clicking on an empty area of the menubar, navigation bar and bookmarks toolbar, with the following code in userChrome.css: </p><p>"#navigator-toolbox { </p><pre> -moz-window-dragging: no-drag !important; </pre> <p>}" </p><p>(That first line apparently was supposed to disable dragging in all areas, including the title bar, but it only worked for all the toolbars below the title bar, but I'm OK with being able to drag the window by the title bar). </p><p>I can still drag to select text in the address box, and the Search box next to it, and I can still drag tabs to reorder them, but trying to select text on pages is impossible. The only way I can <em>sometimes</em> select text, depending where I am (like in this text box) is to start the drag, let go of the mouse button to stop the drag of the window, and move the cursor till all the text I want selected is highlighted, and either hit Del to delete it, Ctrl+C to copy it, or type over it (I cannot, for example, stop selecting and go click the Bold button above, etc). </p><p>I can confirm that going into Troubleshoot Mode "fixes" this issue, but without my extensions - and with tabs way up the top (WHY???) - I can't use FF, I'm afraid. Now I'm guessing it's some code in userChrome.css that FF89 doesn't like, rather than an extension, and that bit of code I found at least stopped the dragging of FF by elements above the web page, besides the title bar (but those are unimportant), so if someone knows the code I can add that will fix this major nuisance, or option in about:config I can change, please let me know. Many thanks in advance for your help. </p><p>[THE SOLUTION: it seems the fix to the tabs bar issue - which after the upgrade to FF89 wasn't up the top again, but at the bottom of the entire window, invisible, and unclickable - meant there was some duplicated or conflicting code from a previous edit, though it was never an issue before this. I edited the "TabsToolbar" section of userChrome.css with new code that put the tabs back below all the bars, and all was good. I should have realised something was amiss here because I actually selected the code in FF last night to paste into userChrome.css. So I went looking through the file for anything useful, and actually near the top I found my earliest fix for this tabs issue, being the line: "#TabsToolbar { position: absolute !important; bottom: 0 !important; width: 100vw !important; display: block !important; }" - it had never been commented out, and strangely enough never conflicted with all the revised TabsToolbar code I've used since (sadly, that's been changed many times - Mozilla seems totally committed to getting people to use tab at the top!). So while I've solved this, if anyone understands the reason behind that code causing this really strange issue of click-hold-drag initiating a drag of the entire window, please feel free to enlighten me. Cheers] </p>

<p>How can we remove the "New Tab" option when right clicking a tab? I find this feature absolutely useless as there's already and "+" tab button to create a new tab.  I used to be able to reload tabs easily and quickly by Right-Click tab, Left-Click and the Reload option was selected. NOW, I have to move the mouse down to the Reload option, or press the "R" key on the keyboard. Simple things, yes, but something that is easily annoying if it's added when it's not needed and having to change the way we use the browser. What would of been nicer is that "Pinned" tabs would always be pinned, regardless if that window was the last to be closed or not. </p>

<p>Greetings from Earth. My Firefox bookmarks in my Dell PC are suddenly altered in that many of the contents of folders (that had been alphabetized by me as I added to them over the years) are now mixed and random-- no longer in A-Z order. I woke up the other day to find this surprise. Is there a simple way to rectify this problem that doesn't involve me rearranging them one by one to their former order, or will I just have to live with the bookmarks in this new way? I did nothing unusual on the PC or with bookmarks to cause any changes. Thanks in advance for help and/or advice; it's appreciated. A fussy Gen X guy is obliged. </p>

<p>So I mainly use firefox and it had been working perfectly for as long as Ive had my laptop. However, recently this issue has come up, that random pages often (around 70-80% of the time) do not open on the first try. Firefox tries to load it for 5-8 seconds and then gives me the server not found error. However, if I click on the refresh button a couple of times it then successfully loads the webpage. This has been happening for 2-3 days now and is really annoying and hard to work around. </p><p>It shouldn't be my wifi since my other laptop does not have this issue. I have refreshed/reset firefox to no avail. I use kaspersky security, but it has had no issues so far and I have not done any changes to settings or anything like that. I thought maybe its a firewall issue but I had not tinkered with any of those settings either. Lastly, I also play online shooters and have so far not noticed any lag during games, making me think its a browser issue. </p>

So, I would like to ask the same question as this guy asked: <em>For privacy reasons, I would like to hide the notification bar that pops-up in front of all windows, showing the video's title and thumbnail, but not the function for Control Media Playback. Is it possible?</em> </p><p>If you couldn't understand the question, I'll explain again. So I attached another image (the second one) for demonstration. This shows this pop-up that is hard to name, so I'll call it a pop-up; </p><p><em>I would like to hide the video title and thumbnail from this pop-up just for privacy reasons. I don't think this is currently possible because the only configuration I could find was "media.hardwaremediakeys.enabled", but if I disable it it would remove the function completely.</em> </p>

<p>Since the most recent update to 89.0 opening pdfs in the browser, some websites and all log-in areas are using a super bold, unreadable font. PDFs also print out with this font. I tried changing the font manually, and both checking and unchecking the "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above" box, but it doesn't help. I have no plugins installled This is the Facebook log in for example. The font is so poor you can't tell the 'i' from a lower case 'l'. The pdf sample is from opening it in the browser. If I download it instead, it opens in a normal, readable font. How can I fix this? </p>

<p>I just updated to Firefox v.89.0.  When I open up a new tab, I get my Bing search engine with a text box in the middle of the page.  When I start typing in this text box, my typing automatically goes instead into the address text box.  Prior to this version of Firefox, my typing stayed the in Bing (or Google, etc.) search text box.  I've tried to look up solutions which sent me to About:config keyword.enabled and other settings but nothing I've tried fixes this problem.  I want my search in the larger (Bing) search text box, not in the address (urlbar) text box which is much smaller text.  As I said, prior to this version of FIrefox, my typing stayed in the search text box and didn't automatically get moved into the address text box.  Please advise. </p>

<p>When I try to get to Facebook I get what looks like a partial load of the FB login page. (I'll attach an image) I cannot input text into the email or password blanks, they just won't accept anything. As you can see from the image, the FB buttons don't have their usual labels. </p><p>The text at the bottom is incomplete also, and not in English. This is a shared PC and we have other users who load websites in Korean rather than English. It may be that they were using the browser when this issue started. </p><p>We have no other website issues using this PC, only Facebook. I've tried refreshing Firefox, and tried clearing cache and cookies without change. I put the browser in troubleshoot mode and FB login functionality worked perfectly. However, I don't see anything in troubleshoot mode that gives me insight into why FB works in that mode but not in "standard" mode. </p><p>We have other shared PCs in the area, and they all have no issues with FB login. </p><p>I would appreciate advice! </p>

content:
<p><strong>Solved, but have a question still:</strong> I can set "pushbuttons" on my WebSDR sites to be able to recall a frequency on the radio dial, but after I close Firefox and restart FF, these settings are gone. </p><p>A webSDR site is one of many listed at <a href="http://www.websdr.org" rel="nofollow">www.websdr.org</a>.  Each site hosts a software-defined radio receiver that can be tuned by the user, independent of other users tuning the radio.  AM broadcast, shortwave broadcast, ham radio and longwave broadcasts can be tuned in and listened-to off the air and streamed to your computer from all over the world. </p><p>I run the latest version of Firefox (89.0) (64-bit) on Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon. </p><p>In Settings, I search for cookies, and find <strong>Cookies and Site Data</strong>, and check the box for "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed."  Then for every site I want cookies to persist from session to session, I "Manage Exceptions," and place the web address in that list, then <strong>allow</strong> every one of them.  </p><p>In History, the next heading down, "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history."  Here I used to save for the session, first- and third-party cookies.  This has been removed from history.  However, I still "clear history when Firefox closes."  In the related Settings, I have only Cache and offlline website data marked for removal. </p><p>The webSDR sites all have a place to put a name or radio callsign.  This is saved with a cookie.   </p><p>So I don't have to type that in every time, I click on the lock on the address bar.  Brings down a menu.  On "Connection (not) secure, there is an arrow on the right.  Click there to bring up connection security information and then click the bottom line, "More information."  I land on another drop-down's Security tab.  I use the tab to the left, called Permissions, and find "Set cookies."  Remove the checkmark to use default (session cookies) and select the Allow button. </p><p>Just two lines below that has a "Store data in persistent storage," with "Use default" checked.  <strong>I need to check this out!</strong> </p><p>Allowing cookies has saved me from having to re-enter my name on the webSDR site, but the page tells me that if I store a memory preset, that is saved on <em>my</em> computer with a cookie.  So I don't get it that my name is saved, my presets are not saved and when I query the site's cookies, there ARE none! </p><p>Here is my work-around:  In Delete history when Firefox closes, and its related settings, I now only clear cache, and unchecked to clear offline site data.  I tested two  sites and I am keeping my preset pushbuttons. </p><p>Now:  I have just reinstated clearing offline site data when FF closes and have set one of the sites' permissions to allow persistent storage. </p><p>I will submit this report and close and reopen Firefox, check the site for retention of the memory preset and report back here. </p>

tags: desktop;other;
product: firefox
topic: other
locale: en-US
answers: 1421823;
creator: tachobrenner
content:
<p>I think that such a project would have multiple purposes: First off, you would take fewer things from Gecko, making for a more compact code base (I mean, does everyone want Video-in-Video and Pocket? Couldn't you integrate the most popular add-ons and remove add-on support? I like 'em, but don't they add bloat?). That could make the entry into development easier. Second off, it'd show people that Blink isn't the only engine you can base a browser off of. And if the code base is truly the same (includes Quantum), and more of a subset, it's probably easier to maintain and get security updates to than, for instance, Pale Moon. As fork developers are only able to backport security patches when Mozilla releases them, that problem would be greatly reduced if the project was made within Mozilla. Third off, having a lightweight browser might enable more people to use Mozilla products, as they could run the browser on weaker hardware. If the developers are able to focus on making that browser lightweight, it wouldn't be crucial for Firefox Standard to run on everything, and you'd still be able to reach more people. </p>

My guess is that they are not thinking. </p><p>Another worthy question is, how did this awful piece of software get distributed by the fedora project. </p><p>Look, I've been using mostly firefox since it's beginning, but come on, this is ridiculous. </p><p>I downgraded to firefox-81 but now some of my streaming services have stopped working because of an unsupported browser. Additionally, gmail does not work after the downgrade. </p><p>I know I'm not a loner in this and I know that firefox-89 is not the most recent version to disappoint in a major way.

<p>FF89 looks great BUT something's missing. I click the 3 bars to bring up the menu. There used to be a choice "Open file..." that would open a pull-down menu of the folder where I keep a special set of html files, something I used every day, but it's gone now.  I can still open the Windows file explorer, and navigate to that folder, but that's a few extra steps. I found a place to customize the toolbar, and "open file..." was there in the overflow menu, and I tried to move it back but it didn't come. It's not under More Tools either. </p>

<p>Hello. </p><p>Since updating to Firefox 89, I have been experiencing problems playing videos shared on Google Drive. (The problem occurred in the Devloper Edition of version 89, and version 89 was released to regular Firefox without a solution. When I start playing a video in Google Drive, it plays fine for the first few minutes, but then suddenly the video stops and the video screen goes black, and there is no response when I press the play button. The only solution to this is to reload the web page, but this is very inconvenient as the video stops in the middle and when you reload again it starts playing from the beginning. </p><p>Sorry for my bad english. Thanks. </p>

<p>This is plea for an immediate fix from anyone, anywhere that can do so. </p><p>FF update just done today June 14th, 2021 as effectively cut off any user with less than perfect depth, color, or acuity of vision.  Whether using natural or lightbulbs or fireflies. </p><p>It also threw out most of the screen/toolbar settings! </p><p>This "upgrade" is going to drive me away from FF asap because neither of us can no longer read the screen!!!  </p><p>Its the lack of contrast.  It's the new, much smaller, default font size.  And lack of demarcation to the tabs as they align with one another side by side.  Like a snow-blind whiteout. </p><p>It also threw out most of the toolbar itself and altered many of the FF "setting" selections that were previously our defaults or elections. </p><p>These are basic attributes which the "upgrade" to  FF has just unilaterally changed. </p><p>Now, as the user I have to 1)  seek out and 2) comprehend more complex instructions like "about: config" and jockey between that and M'soft windows settings???  And then hope I get it right????    </p><p>FYI I did try via another user-help response. Some relief there with font size, but it looks like a fun house mirror w/ weird size toolbar and onscreen font size.   And  it took me an hour and alot of holding my breath to see if I got it jiggered okay.  </p><p>Or seek out and try out any number of color font/screen themes which might work well??-- if I were my grandkids gaming all night under the bedcovers.   </p><p>Folks have graciously put in the time, effort and creativity to make various pretty and graphically appealing themes. Scrolled through pages and pages and have loaded over a dozen try-outs, but unusable/impractical.  </p><pre>I am not a expert user, dont want to become one, and if FF goes the way of the buffalo and the "vcr" programming  (haha!) then so be it. </pre> <p>However, you have always had a great product, and we want you to continue to be successful!! </p><p>Why oh why is it fouled up so badly?? Please don't make me switch to gawd-awful Edge or other browser after being a loyal FF user for years! </p><p>I had to reconfigure the entire toolbar setup this afternoon so less- computer-capable, and more importantly less visually-able spouse could use his few desired websites.  Wasted valuable hours on unnecessary and exhausting task.  </p><p>Am going to attempt the revert to older version of FF as stated in another thread just so I can get back to work and keep my visually and computer challenged spouse happy! </p><p>Rarely write in to help sheets, forums or social sites, but this absolutely must be addressed! </p><p>FF staff PLEASE fix or at least make the former version more obviously, and readily available!! </p><p>Sincerely, loyal users </p>

<p>I have had PCs for years and have used Firefox.  My PC died and will not boot.  I have an image of my C:\ drive on a Passport disk.  But the Mac will not read it.  I installed Firefox on my new Mac and signed in had all of my bookmarks and passwords.  Then there was a Firefox icon on the bottom strip and one on my screen.  In the interim, I opened some new accounts and used a bunch of passwords.  At the end of the day, I dragged the icon on the screen down to the row of icons at the lower screen.  That wiped out my Firefox.  I downloaded Firefox again and put in what I thought was the password and it said I had multiple accounts and if I changed the password it would erase  all of my data.  I need to find out how to get the right password so I preserve my data.  The email account I used as the ID is coolsgirl@msn.com.  I am 72 and I don't want to make a mistake that is irreversible. My sister said Macs were easier but I should have gotten a new PC.  Live and learn.  I don't know my Firefox email. Thank you, Phyllis </p>

<p>Hi,  </p><p>I noticed a problem on my MacBook Pro when Firefox is running. When I have 4 tabs opened on a precise streaming website, with the sound <strong>disabled</strong> on these 4 tabs, and I run other tab (like youtube) or other app (VLC, Music,...) with the sound enabled on it, I can ear some "pop" or "crackle" in the speakers.  </p><p>I performed the same test with Safari and the problem don't appear.  </p><p>Motherbaord, and speakers have been replace on my laptop by AppleCare. I think it's a software issue (maybe due to Firefox, maybe to macOs). I contacted Apple to explain my problem and ask them try to reproduce the issue, but they won't do until  Mozilla confirm that the issue is not due to Firefox... </p><p>I did't find how to contact Firefox support Team, so I posted here... </p><p>Regards, Joe </p>

creator: cglenn
content:
<p>Just having upgraded to V89.0.1, I won't focus on how more difficult to see the separation of tabs, but instead: All my folders in bookmarks have turned clear and appear to be the basic default look.  Specific sites under each folder, as well as the individual sites not in folders, have kept their (what used to be called) Favicons. </p><p>I see no customizing option for this.  Can I at least give the top level folder a color, WITHOUT FANCY PROGRAMMING OR EDITING OF DEEP CONFIGURATION FILES, just by menu clicking? </p><p>I'll conclude by not asking why the Powers thought to remove such things.  To me it makes it HARDER to find my way around Firefox and displayed page. </p>

topic: websites

content:
<p>I've been using Office 365 subscription through work on my Mac with Firefox for years. Today, it stopped working. It was actually quite scary: when I logged in, all my information was gone (all email, etc.). When I check Microsoft, it states it supports Firefox for all major OSes except Mac. I can still access Office 365 on Chrome, but I don't like being forced to use a browser I don't like from a company I don't like. IT help through my work has been useless. They just said use Edge.  </p><p>Does anybody know the status of this change? Is it intended to be permanent or is it a temporary issue? If it's a permanent choice to exclude Mac users from using Firefox, what is the best way to signal protest against this and maybe get Microsoft to rethink making a major, popular browser useless? I would like to support Firefox/Mozilla in pushing back against this potentially significant move to limit their usability. Thanks. </p>

<p>My firefox updated to the (horrible) new tabs, and now there's an incredibly annoying black line that appears over my Facebook tab that I can't find any way to get rid of.  What does this mean?  What is it for?  How do I kill this stupid thing?  With the (terrible) way the new tabs distinguish between the active tab and the inactive tabs (basically just a slightly different, nearly indistinguishable shade of off-white), this black bar is the most striking visual element on my row of tabs, so it grabs the eye the way the active tab should, and it's confusing and distracting. </p>

title:
Solid colours on some webpages will not show, the background shows up in pixel/small squares instead.

content:
<p>Some solid colours on certain webpages do not appear whilst on Firefox. The background will show up instead of the colour the image should be. I have tried to delete the cookies and cache on Firefox as well as trying Firefox in troubleshoot mode to no avail. Whilst writing this question, I have also discovered that taking a screenshot of the issue shows how the image should look as opposed to what the screen shows. Attached are some images of the issues I am facing, two images are of what appears on the screen and one image is the screenshot from the webpage which is what should have been shown. Apologies for some of the photos, I had to take a photo of the screen with my phone to show the issue. I have also closed the browser multiple times and restarted my computer, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. </p>

<p>Lately (as of which version, I'm not sure), I've been noticing that if I enter a URL in the address bar of a tab that already has a page open, instead of going to the new URL I entered, Firefox will refresh the current page instead. This happens A LOT and is pretty annoying. Wondering if this happens to anyone else. </p>

<p>Dear All,  </p><p>I urgently need to retrieve various documents saved in the past as web pages with the Scrapbook extension which I found very easy and useful. Some of them date back to 2008. When I try to reactivate ScrapBook in "Add-ons and Themes" I find that ScrapBook is disabled and that there is no switch to re-enable it. i have access to the ScrapBook folder in the /home/.../.mozilla/firefox/********.default folder. Indeed I find in that folder a lot of data folders titled with the date and time of creation but it is very tedious to search.  How can I reactivate ScrapBook or is there another way to easily access all these pages saved with ScrapBook?  Firefox extension or standalone software? </p><p>Thanks in advance to all! </p>

I can still manually delete the cookies by going to 'Settings &gt; Privacy &amp; Security &gt; Cookies and Site Data &gt; Manage Data' (which is how I discovered they were not deleting using the shortcut; I just happened to check here), but I would like to be able to use the shortcut.

<p>I'm an old Firefox user. Thank you for excellent Browser! </p><p>However, I've seen some bad things in Firefox 89, so I'll report it. After upgrading Firefox to 89, access from behind the proxy no longer reaches all addresses beyond the firewall. I noticed that the page opens correctly when I play around with the settings, which is related to the HTTPS-Only Mode and Automatic proxy configuration URL settings. I specify the address of "http:" in the Automatic proxy configuration URL. In that case, if HTTP-Only Mode is ON, it seems that the proxy configuration file cannot be read correctly. When I turned off HTTP-Only Mode and reloaded again, the page was displayed correctly. Alternatively, I can give up the specification in the Automatic proxy configuration URL and switch to the manual specification. That said, before 89, all settings were displayed correctly, so I think it was a trigger for the change in 89. Is there anything you can think of? Is such a phenomenon happening in other people? </p>

<p>I keep my address bar and search bar separate. I wanted to have the address bar execute the search on the already open tab, and the search bar to open a new tab in the background without stealing the focus. I managed to set them up separately, now the address bar does not open a new tab and the search bar does, but the newly opened tab always steals the focus. I'm trying to keep the focus on the already open tab while the search bar opens a new tab without switching to it. Is there a way to achieve this? </p>

<p>Wanted to stop using the URL box for my SEARCHES and stick with the old SEARCH box because if my 'search' did not find what I was looking for, I could just change a word or two instead of typing the whole darn thing all over again.

What is the default value for HANDOFF? 2. Is there a LIST of the defaults, TRUE or FALSE in case I need to 'monkey' with 'about:config' in the future.  I am not at all happy with some of the changes in rel 89.0 and 'messing' with the URL box, the SEARCH box, etc.  3.  I tried to "go back" to previous a release and avoid/skip rel 89.0 but was forced to because of PROFILES, there locations, multiple ones and not knowing the 'most recent' to choose so was forced to use rel 89.0.  </p><p>Thank You. </p>

All disk operations are pathetically slow and I suspect this a factor in the poor performance. </p><p>I'd been hoping to see if the 64-bit build works better or could provide crash files.

I even downloaded and ran MEMTEST86 -- no problems there.  </p><p>Firefox's "Use" is typically streaming music (SoundCloud) but many crashes happen when also doing normal web browsing in a 2nd tab. </p><p>Can someone help me to set up crash messages and reporting?

The effect is 'our way or *** you.' </p><p>Earthink's folder system is somewhat reminiscent of Outlook Express, which I loved.

So my inability to access it must be another 'gift' from Earthlink, the firm with the worst designers and programmers of any I've encountered. </p><p>They have arranged to bury consumer complaints, and have concocted a way to make false claims appear in search returns. Their site is covered with 'best' badges that can't possibly be deserved, or have been given.  As a customer since 1997, I feel some authority to say what I'm saying, as a witness to their devolution and ever more blatant unconcern. </p><p>If you only knew. </p><p>I'd go to Thunderbird except you withdrew support for it for a time, I think I read, which makes it untrustworthy to me. </p><p>Is there any way I can access the spell check function other than a browser input window ? I don't know if can 'force' earthlink to use it only in my compose windows, but it is running with Firefox. </p><p>Anyway, thanks for any help you can give me. </p>

<p>I have multiple screens with task bars above each other.

This issue has bothered me for quite a while now. The workaround seems to be to set the windows task bar color to white ( to make it less noticable ), but that doesn't solve the problem, it just makes it less visible. </p><p>Please see the screenshot.  When I unfocus Firefox ( by focussing another piece of software, or none ) the white bar disappears. </p>

<p>My pc got hacked through the my Firefox api keys, took all my crypto my emails, what can I do if I’m locked out of everything. There is no way to lock your account from outside. When they have access to everything you can’t do anything. Now this scammer, he literally runs a scam site has all my info. Google doesn’t have a number to call. Yahoo lady was an idiot, I said I’ve been hacked I want my account locked down they can’t do that. He changed the carts on my pc and deleted the recovery drive. Had access to my phone and did the same to that. Stole most or all of my crypto and there’s no recourse to these people the government is spending trillions of dollars, they can’t setup a number to call. This guy has stole millions from his scam site. Ruined my life and no one does anything. I’m literally on leave from work because I’m a manic depression with suicidal tendencies. I just want a person to talk to who can help. Google, one of the biggest companies in the world has no call center. How ridiculous is that. All my money I had. All my private information stolen. My I’d, my ssn, all my passwords. They need a simple button that says if you’ve been hacked click here. Even if you haven’t and someone is just doing it, it’s better than all the negatives that these people can cause. These losers hide behind the internet ruining lives and these huge companies make it so hard to do anything because they don’t care. They don’t care, we’re just the little people. Its insane that google doesn’t have a number to call for hacks. All companies should because it’s so common and these people are making more money I’ll make in my entire life by sitting behind there desk ruining people’s lives. I’m so beyond every feelings in the world. If this guy was in front of me I would destroy him physically. Firefox lock my damn account . Lock it, follow everything they do, get their Ip if possible, infect them, STOP THESE PEOPLE FROM RUIN LIVES PLEASE </p><p><br> <em>[Personal information removed by moderator.

<p>I used to be able to use Google Maps without problem on Firefox. </p><p>I'm not sure exactly when the problem arose, but I'm positive it is broken on my Firefox 89.0, and now on Firefox 89.0.1 - The problem is as follows: </p><p>When I load the <a href="https://www.google.fr/maps/" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.fr/maps/</a> site, I see the map load, I see the towns, the roads, the "pins" (shops, points of interest, etc.); I have the names displayed, it looks fine. Then, once it's done loading, the map background disappears, and I'm left with only the names and the pins. Enclosed is a picture of the area around Paris, France, after it "went dark". </p><p>If I drag and drop the map, or zoom in or out, the map reappears and is perfectly readable. But as soon as I stop moving it, the map tiles disappear again, and I'm stuck with only the names and pins again. </p><p><br> I've checked under other browsers (Edge, for instance), and the problem seems to occur only on Firefox. I've removed ALL my google-related cookies (because of old answers to problems with Google Maps, saying to try that), and it didn't help. I tried reloading the page, emptying the cache, didn't work either. </p><p>Am I the only one to experience this ?  Any ideas as to why it happens, or how to correct it ? </p><p><br> OS is windows 10, up to date. </p>

<p>Since some time, Firefox (currently 89.0) on Windows 10 automatically reduces the window size from "fullscreen" to "maximized" when re-opening it from another program. So I have to wait until the window size reduction is complete before having to re-enlarge it again (which is quite annoying) </p><p>After a short web search, it turned out that this window size reduction is caused by the "xulstore.json" file in the profile folder and several other users are also reporting this issue. However, none of them in the forums I visited knew a permanent solution. I unsuccessfully tried the following: </p> <ul><li>When I delete "xulstore.json", the window size reduction problem goes away only to re-appear after a few re-openings of Firefox (as the xulstore file is re-established then). </li><li>Editing the xulstore file did not work, as Firefox overwrites it. </li><li>Denying Firefox writing permission (via Windows) also doesn't work, as Firefox creates a temporary copy of the xulstore file which again causes the resizing problem. </li><li>Denying access to this temporary copy does not work either. </li></ul> <p>It seems like Firefox does everything possible just to keep the resizing problem persisting. Is there any permanent solution (different from the failed solution attempts above)? Or even better: could you remove the automatic resizing in a coming version update of Firefox? It seems like I am not the only one who would be grateful about this. </p>

<p>Hello Dear Folks. </p><p>Since the new Update 89.0 I've had issues with several websites not showing the text. As if it's written with "invisible ink". After marking it appears, its like black text on black background, or white text on white background. I have tried out different Themes, Addons, but none of them work. I didn't upgrade to 89.0, I think it happened automatically, because one day I just saw my Firefox layout beeing different. So it should have "auto-update" on. I have also attached images as examples. </p><p>Anyone else have these problems, is there any way to fix this or should I downgrade my Firefox version? Also my OS Windows 10 is up to the newest version. </p><p>If downgrading is the only fix, does it keep my "settings, passwords, profiles, bookmarks, etc"? </p><p>Thanks in Advance! </p>

<p>I'd guess there's already a discussion regarding this, but I don't know where. Getting rid of the borders when there are multiple tabs open and turning things gray makes for a far worse browsing experience for me. Why would one string of undifferentiated text in a long line of tabs make things any easier? It does not. </p><p>I've found a helpful site that allows turning off the new theme, but a commenter advises that that option too will soon be disabled: <a href="https://www.askvg.com/tip-restore-old-classic-theme-and-ui-in-firefox-89-and-later-versions/" rel="nofollow">https://www.askvg.com/tip-restore-old-classic-theme-and-ui-in-firefox-89-and-later-versions/</a> </p><p>Is there an add-on that keeps the "classic" theme? I've googled how to provide feedback. One of those links is dead. What's the best way to make my thoughts known? </p><p>People love tech, but the older I get the more I see how it demonstrates a lack of ownership, that nothing is really yours on your devices, that what you're comfortable with is only one weekly update away. </p>

<p>I'm old school. My new tab and home page are my own.  Sadly there has been a recent regression with respect to Containers with Firefox 89.0.1.  I've been using Firefox Multi-Account Containers for a very long time. I've been using 7.3.0 since January. It seems no matter what I do it is now h*ll bent on prompting what container I want to open my home page in. It doesn't matter how many times I tell it not to do this on the "Open this site in your assigned container?" in the most recent version of Firefox all buttons related to opening in the Default container do not appear. I can tell it to "Remember my decision for this site" and open in the current container but that does nothing. It's right back to the prompting every time I open a tab. Has anyone found a way to end this extraneous prompting? </p>

<p>Hello, I'm using syncing for several years and now I had to reset my working laptop to default Windows 10 installation. So I installed also Firefox, loged in and was waiting for restoring of the bookmarks and the rest. What happened was the bookmarks were empty, only folders were restored. I saw the bookmarks for few seconds and then they dissapeared. And of course it synced the state into the rest of my devices. So I used one of the backups I do on many occasions. What happens is the bookmarks are back, but they're completely in reverse order. Everything is rotated and the splitters are at the bottom of each folder. Nothing helps, it's again synced into all my devices and I'm going crazy, because I put so much time in the past to organize the bookmarks and I have thousands of them. I have backups in json as well as in HTML, but the reverse order is terrible. What can I do? Best regards, Pavel </p>

Stop making thing broken by 'fixing' them. Thin lines. Thin fonts. Icons without text. Shaded colors with no definition.  A tab line on top with hazzy shadows behind it.

<p>Ayer actualicé a la última versión 89.0.1 (64-bit) en windows 7 y noté este fallo, al principio creí que era cosa de la propia web de wallapop pero un día después el error persiste. Sucede cuando navegando por la web se elige cualquier artículo y se quiere iniciar una conversación con el vendedor, cuando se hace click sobre el icono chat (arriba a la derecha) la web va al apartado de conversaciones almacenadas pero no da opción alguna de inciar una nueva conversación, sólo puedes continuar con las existentes. He desinstalado todos los complementos que tenía para un inicio en limpio pero el error sigue ahí. Lógicamente he probado con otros navegadores y la web funciona sin problemas, se puede iniciar una conversación con cualquier usuario de wallapop, pero desde la nueva versión de firefox no se puede. </p>

<p>FF auto-updated to 89.0.1, now a site won't work, would like to RESTORE deleted/cleared COOKIES (?!?!) for that site to see if it will help cuz deleted the cookie for it made things worse! Doesn't work under Private FF session either!! </p><p>Specifics: I am the Webmaster of (we use WIX to create/manage it) <a href="http://12cdrc.org" rel="nofollow">12cdrc.org</a> and it is working fine using Edge, Chrome, Brave, but no longer works correctly (since 89.0.1, I think happened late last night early this morning on my system) update. Most of the page loads, but the Calendar and display tweets sub-windows will not load! It will be obvious to all where they should be displaying but are not! </p><p>So, I tried removing <a href="http://12cdrc.org" rel="nofollow">12cdrc.org</a> cookies. Things got worse! Now the Login won't work either, where I was logged in as my user for the site prior to that. </p><p>I tried a Private window/session, and the Login function does work, the Calendar does show, but the tweets sub-section/window still does not display/function. </p><p>Background: This is not the first website to malfunction using Firefox... Previous version updates broke the <a href="http://rescuemichigan.com" rel="nofollow">rescuemichigan.com</a> website (none of the pull-down menu functions work, but work fine on/with Brave, Chrome, Edge)! Also <a href="http://mewe.com" rel="nofollow">mewe.com</a> acts up using FF at times, but a clear of the <a href="http://mewe.com" rel="nofollow">mewe.com</a> related cookies and relogin at mewe via FF clears up the issues of things not wanting to display correctly or fully on mewe using FF - which is why I thought clearing <a href="http://12cdrc.org" rel="nofollow">12cdrc.org</a> cookies would help in this case (but did not, again, made the malfunctioning worse)! </p><p>This makes little sense. I even tried doing D/L of full 89.0.1 install, didn't help. </p><p>I'd like to try and RESTORE COOKIES (last thing I want to do is clear all data/cookies for FF) for <a href="http://12cdrc.org" rel="nofollow">12cdrc.org</a> from manual offload of all my userid appdata folder/sub-folders to an external drive (or perhaps appdata backup to Norton cloud backup done a few weeks ago)! But I do not know where to look. Was about to go to my external drive and do complete file search of "12cdrc*.*" to see what would return when I thought I could search Mozilla/FF Help on "Restore Cookies" but only very old question for very old version of FF showed up and it said "IF STILL NEED HELP ASK NEW QUESTION" so here I am doing so!!! </p><p>Again, all sites (<a href="http://12CDRC.org" rel="nofollow">12CDRC.org</a>, <a href="http://MeWe.com" rel="nofollow">MeWe.com</a>, and <a href="http://RescueMichigan.com" rel="nofollow">RescueMichigan.com</a>) ALL WORK 100% error/issues free using Brave, Chrome, Edge, so this is FIREFOX SPECIFIC and all these issues have started under/after recent FF updates and/or gotten worse, not fixed/better, under updates/upgrades!!!! </p><p>Appreciate any Help... 1) like I said, where the Cookies are hidden that I might then recover them from previous save 2) other suggestions?!?!?! </p>

<p>With today's Firefox update, the edges of the tabs, that allow me to visually distinguish between the multiple tabs that I always have open, disappeared. Now, it is only the font/text that is visible when looking at my browser's multiple tabs. The edges have disappeared, only showing up as a faint shadow when I hover the pointer over a tab. And depending on the name listed on the tab, this makes it very difficult to distinguish one tab from another. This change to the way that Firefox looks is making it difficult for me to maneuver between tabs, and get my work done.  </p><p>I tried changing colours, as well as the different themes, but in all cases, the edges remain invisible. Attached is a screen image of the different colour/themes, showing that in every case, the edges of the tabs remain invisible. </p><p>Is there a way to bring the edges back into view? Thank you in advance for your assistance. </p>

<p>Since the recent update to 89.0, I've been experiencing longer than normal initial page loads from start up or wake up for my MBP. Safe mode doesn't seem to matter, and it doesn't matter if a browser window is open and a page loaded or if I'm opening a new browser window, that first page load (or reload) takes much longer than it should (up to 10 seconds to load for example, the Google home page). Once I'm past that initial page load, my browser speed is fine. I also checked Safari and Chrome on this MBE, and neither have this issue, which leads me to believe it isn't a security or some other setting on the Mac. </p>

<p>Prima dell'ultimo aggiornamento di Firefox (89.0.1 64 bit), nel Menu Applicazione era presente la voce di menu "Credenziali e password", con una chiave come simbolo, ora invece è necessario navigare nelle Impostazioni per raggiungerla. E' possibile ripristinare tale voce separata o comunque aggiungere una scorciatoia nella barra degli strumenti o altrove? Grazie per il supporto </p>

<p>Hi, Firefox update is so Microsoft-ish. Not only that it is forced on you (without any info) BUT it also deletes the last tab you tried to open. Why the last tab (the one in which restart button is open) is lost? WHY? it is a F*ck You message to all users. </p><p>case: -you click on link and instead of wished tab the restart tab is open -you restart the browser -there is no info of last tab tried to open </p><p>no way that this must work like this!!! if you after restart can reopen all other tabs you can reopen the tab that was used to force restart. thnx dj </p>

The new version, 89.0.1, has removed the contrast and separation of the tabs, making it hard to read now.  Why?

content:
<p>I don't mean to be rude, but if you could get the decision-makers who authorize drastic changes to the appearance of the browser when a new release comes out to just stop "fixing" things that aren't broken, that would certainly satisfy me.  I'm not picky about color schemes and "themes", but now the browser is difficult to read, and it wasn't before.  I need to know how to restore the appearance of my browser to be the same as in the previous version, or I'll finally have to quit Firefox after all these years and switch to a different one.  I don't want to have to do that, but I don't think I can manage to deal with this new hard-to-read low-contrast version.  I'm sure someone thought this design looked "cool", and was therefore an improvement.  I don't want to stifle anyone's creativity, but the browser I use has to be easier to read.  Maybe the next release will offer a choice between the "look and feel" of the previous version versus this one.  Thanks for considering my problem (and it is a problem for me), and I'll keep my fingers crossed. </p>

<p>Before the update, my bookmarks toolbox was permanently open on the left side of the screen. That was a perfect setup for me, as I use a lot of bookmarklets for time saving on sites I'm on frequently. Since the update, all I have at the top of the screen is Import bookmarks and Most Visited (top left) and Other Bookmarks (top right). I can open Other Bookmarks, and my bookmarklets are there, but clicking one closes the Other Bookmarks folder each and every time. This renders them useless for my purpose. Is there a way to reopen, and KEEP open, my toolbox? I've tried clicking the Keep Open option and selecting done, but that doesn't do what I'm wanting it to do. </p>

<p>Firefox causing double audio. Cancelling it allows one audio to continue, but stops the video part. Seems to only happen on Fox news since update.

It's really annoying as I've always preferred Google anyway. When I search for something in the address bar, it loads a Bing page, but when I open a new tab it loads my preferred page, Google with Firefox. I don't have Bing selected as a search engine in my options. How can I get rid of it please? </p>
