<p>In molti occasioni con Firefox, che uso abitualmente, non riesco a completare alcune azioni e sono costretto a passare a Chrome che invece non presenta gli stessi problemi. Per esempio non mi è stato possibile iniziare una chat con Dazn in quanto il click sulla relativa icona non produceva alcun effetto. In altro caso non riesco ad accedere al mio account di Eni poichè non è possibile digitare il mio username e la mia password relativa in quanto nella pagina del login non compaiono per nulla le relative caselle... (vedi screenshot allegato)! e così problemi simili in varie altre occasioni.  Come posso ovviare ? Grazie </p>

<p>I have been trying to automate setting a homepage for my users. I have tried a number of ways including a script I found but changing the prefs.js on my account doesn't seem to affect Firefox at all. I can append "browser.startup.homepage" in the view:config if I open Firefox locally and that seems to change the homepage as intended but putting it into a script doesn't seem to do anything unfortunately. </p><p>I have also tried what's recommended in this guide however that did not help either. </p><p><a href="https://smallbusiness.chron.com/change-default-homepage-users-54727.html" rel="nofollow">https://smallbusiness.chron.com/change-default-homepage-users-54727.html</a> </p><p>Is there a way to do this through regedit or group policy? Preferably a way that still allows the users to change the homepage if they like. </p>

<p>Hi </p><p>I've posted about this issue before.  I've done everything recommended, starting with clearing cache and cookies, disabling add ons and extensions, refreshing firefox and now have done a clean install.  The issue persists and I'm stuck! </p><p>I have a wordpress business website.  On it is a blog page, which links to all my blog posts - see attached image when viewing on Edge.  But on Firefox none of the links are visible.  They ARE there - if you hover, the cursor changes and I can click on the link and go to the page but I can't actually SEE any of the links.   </p><p>When I did the clean install, the very first time I visited the blog page everything looked normal.  However, after visiting a post and returning to the blog page the links had disappeared again!  Firefox seems to be putting some kind of cookie or something on that particular page (it's the only page I'm having issues with) and after the cookie has been installed it blocks all the links. </p><p>Please help. This is my business website and if I can't get it working I'll have to stop using Firefox. </p>

<p>When I open certain websites (e.g. Quora or gmail) and can normally browse through them, after a little while they stop loading. Pressing any link on these sites basically does nothing - no response (no error codes or anything else). Other browsers don't have this issue and I've disabled any extensions running on firefox. I have to close and reopen firefox in order to resume browsing of these sites (and after a few minutes I will observe the same problem with these sites). Just closing and reopening the tabs won't (temporarily) fix the problem; firefox itself has to restart. </p>

I'd pretty much like it to never appear in the first place. I've attached 2 screenshots, one is the website how it was before and the other is with this new slider thing, I marked it red.  </p><p>THANK YOU!! </p><p>add: after posting I saw that the screenshots are enormous, sorry about that. </p>

creator: donnafranceschild
content:
<p>I have a recently moved from a five-year old Dell XPS to a new XPS. Everything went smoothly until I tried to print anything at all originating from a web page on Firefox, including a Gmail email. The font was gigantic and didn't fit on the page and it doesn't even print the rest of the text on another page. Maddeningly, the print preview shows that the page is about to print out just fine...until it doesn't. </p><p>I've tried combing the forums and it seems this problem was an issue in the past, but that means that all of the replies I'm reading are from people using Vista and XP, with references to menus and profile related file-extensions that no longer exist. For example, the print preview that comes up on Firefox does not contain the option to "Shrink to Fit". </p><p>It does seem that, after literally decades of using Firefox, I'm going to have to start using another browser. Unless there is someone out there that knows the magic spell I need to fix this? </p>

<p>A Wordpress website that I am building is not displaying properly in Firefox (the problem does not occur in Chrome). </p><p>As the following video shows, when you clear the cache and then view the site, it displays as intended. However, when you click on the site logo in the top left corner, some elements no longer display full page as they should: <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/sj05vkhyq5bwxtg/Mark%20Angus%20Firefox%20Video.mov?dl=0" rel="nofollow">https://www.dropbox.com/s/sj05vkhyq5bwxtg/Mark%20Angus%20Firefox%20Video.mov?dl=0</a> </p><p>I have been in contact with the theme developers, but I am not sure they have grasped the issue, as they keep coming back to me and saying the site is fine when they view it — but that it is in Chrome which, I have said, is fine. It is with Firefox that the issue occurs. </p><p>If anyone could provide me with some advice or suggestions, I would be most grateful. </p>

Firefox 89.0.2 64 bit constantly checking for updates, causing internet pages to frequently stop loading

content:
<p>Hi, long time Firefox user here. Until recently everything was running great, but since the last few updates I've noticed a strange and extraordinarily frustrating bug or issue with Firefox on my system where the internet pages are intermittently taking way too long to load, or sometimes just will not load at all. I've tried various different things to troubleshoot, including booting in safe mode, disabling extensions etc etc but the problem will still manifest itself over and over. The same behaviour does not appear on chrome browser, which will load websites fine at exactly the same time as Firefox takes forever, which rules out an internet connection or network issue. </p><p>One thing that I've noticed is that firefox itself is constantly(!) checking for updates in the background, regardless of whether I set it to automatic, manual or background service. Is there any way to stop firefox checking for updates? Whenever it is stuck in this mode the issues seem to appear. It's extremely frustrating and I've been driven to posting on here to see if someone can shed some light on the issue. Having been a firefox user since forever I'm loath to replace it with an alternative like chrome, but if it won't load webpages then it's not doing it's basic job. I am running a windows 7 64 system here and have a number of plugins running in firefox but as I said I've tried disabling those to no avail. I've attached a screenshot of the browser stuck 'checking for updates'. </p><p>Appreciate any feedback or suggestions on how to fix. Thanks </p>

<p>In the past few weeks I have noticed that I at some point in the day Google sites stop working. I cannot search using the address bar and I cannot visit any Google site. If I clear the cache and the cookies everything starts working again for a few minutes to a few hours. </p><p>This happens both on Mac and on PC. As you can understand this is not a usable scenario. The workaround of clearing the cache and cookies every time this happens is not a solution since it means I need to login into all the sites I was logged in before clearing the cache and cookies. Also this only happens on Firefox and not other browsers. </p>

<p>I have been using Firefox on this computer for years, I go to open it the other day and all I see is an error message: the code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140_1dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.  I keep uninstalling, and when I re-install it says it detects an older version so lets update it. I do that, then all I see is a black page. I can't go to any website what-so-ever. So I go through the whole process again. I even started in "safe mode" and still nothing.  Does anyone have any suggestions? I deleted all of my extensions from it, but when it re-downloads and installs they are there again. </p>

<p>I'm using Firefox on Linux (Fedora 33) and MATE Desktop. After a recent Firefox update, I noticed that the <em>default</em> scrollbar appearance has changed. Scrollbars in Firefox no longer look like the desktop theme and all the other apps. Instead, they are very thin and have no arrows at the top and bottom. Please see the attached screenshots: Firefox vs. standard application (Pluma text editor). I would like to get the scrollbars back to the desktop theme appearance. </p><p>Just to be clear, this is <strong>not</strong> about websites that customize the scrollbar appearance through CSS. I captured the attached screenshot using a tiny HTML file that I wrote myself and has <strong>no</strong> CSS. For what is worth, I tried to customize the scrollbars by following the suggestions I had found in other posts, namely through ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and userContent.css. None of that worked. </p>

<p>In the Inspector panel in Developer Tools, HTML elements with a long list of selectors don't show all the selectors. They get reduced with a `...`. The only way I've found to show the full list of selectors is to double-click it (which puts it into "Edit as HTML" mode). </p><p>As a web developer, I find this is adding unnecessary complication and inconvenience. When picking selectors from the page, as I build out custom CSS, I don't want to have to put some HTML elements into "Edit as HTML" just to see what the full list of classes is, for example. </p><p>It most commonly occurs on the `body` elements on Wordpress sites (which tends to have a long list of `class` selectors for this element). </p><p>Is there a way to turn this feature off? </p><p>Here's the way it's displaying by default: <a href="https://ibb.co/MN93bKw" rel="nofollow">https://ibb.co/MN93bKw</a> </p><p>Here's the full list of selectors on that same element: <a href="https://ibb.co/Z85Sq6H" rel="nofollow">https://ibb.co/Z85Sq6H</a> </p><p>Thanks very much. </p><p>Jonathan </p>

As far as I know, I have click the appropriate stuff on Noscript that I usually do, but have had no luck with it. Due to the fact that I'm not willing to try to mess around on any sites with it turned off (and it doesn't seem to do anything anyway, as far as I know from when I tried resetting Firefox a few weeks ago) something tells me this might be something inside Firefox's guts that I might need to change. Can anyone help figure out what I need to adjust in the settings? </p>

<p>Buongiorno, mi trovo a sviluppare un'applicazione che prevede di riprodurre tramite browser (di default Firefox) un video registrato a 300fps. Per poter ottenere il massimo avrei bisogno di riprodurlo a velocità molto basse, ad esempio 1/100 o perlomeno 1/50. Tuttavia dal codice sorgente pare che in Firefox il limite sia 1/16 (<a href="https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp#176" rel="nofollow">https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp#176</a>), e dalla mia esperienza avevo in effetti riscontrato un limite, anche se non sapevo quantizzarlo. </p><p>Mi chiedevo se c'era modo di modificare tale valore senza dover compilare Firefox o se fosse possibile fare richiesta di modifica di tale valore (c'è scritto "These constants are arbitrary") o metterlo in about:config... </p><p>Grazie! </p><p>Alessandro </p>

<p>I need an answer that either fixes the download saving behavior in Firefox (which makes the most sense) or that does this from the other end via Adobe. I've already searched help articles for both &amp; the answers are all pointing to the same instructions that don't work--the menu selections no longer exist. And my new disclaimer for all "Ask the Community" questions: I'm not lonely. I have a problem; I'm looking for an answer ASAP &amp; this is unfortunately my only avenue.  If you don't understand the question, here's a revolutionary concept: instead of writing me a novel's worth of unhelpful and/or unrelated BS, pass by my question. </p>

If I manually select "Automatic" in the View-&gt;Text Encoding menu. then THAT page appears fine, but as soon as I click something else on the same site, the story repeats -- back to Unicode and broken characters, even though every page of the web site specifies Windows-1254 as the encoding. </p>

Like if I open a new tab with it, it's blank (as if nothing was entered). If I enter into the URL bar, nothing happens (not an error, not any message... as if I did nothing).  I've ran firefox in troubleshooting mode and that didn't make any difference (which means it's firefox and not any extension).  The website definitely works as Chrome loads it with no problem.  </p><p>The odd part is if I open the private browser, the site loads fine.  So it's only the normal firefox that doesn't load... and I don't know what to do about it.  Especially since it only happens sometimes. </p>

Firefox will not load any web pages, including its internal pages, even after clean reinstallations.

<p>About a month ago, Firefox stopped loading web pages on my Windows 10 Lenovo Flex 14-IWL computer. The UI loads without any issues. However, no pages can be loaded, including Firefox's own pages like "about:preferences" or "about:performance." I completely removed all traces of Firefox from the computer twice (using Revo Uninstaller's advanced mode), but the problem remained after each reinstallation attempt. On the second of those reinstall attempts, I checked the Console after trying to load one of those control pages and found the error messages shown in the attached screenshot. What is happening, and how can I get Firefox working again? </p><p>(Note: Since I have completely uninstalled Firefox again since taking this screenshot, there is no troubleshooting data to send.) </p>

<p>I initially just wanted to get some ad-blocking program to keep down the volume of all the flashing ads showing up on webpages. I'm working with a new laptop computer, and my old laptop had been "tweaked" with some Mozilla extensions (?) to address this, and I wanted to get the same on my new laptop. So I opened the application menu - the 3 horizontal bar icon, top right. First thing at the top, it asks me to sign in. Honestly, I don't think I ever did this. So I used one of the many secondary email addresses I use for this type of thing, put in a password, and created an account. Up popped a screen saying, "This Firefox is connected". Then down below, it said, "Sign in to Firefox on another device to complete set-up". Ugh, really? Ok, fire up the <strong>old</strong> laptop and open up Firefox and sign in using the same email and password. Here's where I get lost - up pops a screen that says, "Connect another device". Then down below it says, "Open the code scanner on your Firefox app and show code when ready." And there's a "Show Code" button down below this. But I'm hesitant to press it, because I don't know what my code scanner is, I don't have a flatbed scanner (if that's what they're talking about), my phone is broken (part of the reason I have a new laptop today), and I don't see any Firefox apps called "code scanner", and nothing in the help community that I can find about code scanning. So what the hell? I can't be the only person who's gone down this rabbit hole... </p>

<p>I am hoping that someone on these forums can help me, since it seems Pocket does not have its own help forum. Pocket has (suddenly, it seemed: today as far as I can tell) started appending "<em>?utm_source=pocket_mylist</em>" (for example "<a href="https://daringfireball.net/?utm_source=pocket_mylist" rel="nofollow">https://daringfireball.net/?utm_source=pocket_mylist</a>") to the end of every single link I open from my list now (I find this absolutely maddening), or in the case of YouTube links, in the middle of the URL (for example "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?utm_source=pocket_mylist&amp;v=S_b0ndn5oIg" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?utm_source=pocket_mylist&amp;v=S_b0ndn5oIg</a>"), and has stopped opening links in new tabs (again, this was fine until yesterday), meaning that if I was quite far down my article list, click a link but forget I now have to Ctrl+Click or Right-Click and then go back to the Pocket list, I have to scroll for a long time to get back to where I was. </p><p>This is, obviously, another one of those brain-dead examples of a product being "improved", whereby they made it materially worse. Unfortunately I do use Pocket a lot, so my question is if there is any way (something in about:config, or perhaps some add-on) to, in short, get it to cut this crap out (also known as "work")? </p><p>Thanks in advance. </p>

I uninstalled FireFox and have tried reinstalling it numerous times and it will not launch/open at all, it will "bounce" once and sit in the dock. I have a MacBook running iOS Big Sur. Any help provided needs to be very specific in steps and instructions so I may understand what I need to do to rectify the situation. I need my FireFox back. </p>

Why can't it keep a list of available fonts that it can refer to rather than scan all over again?

<p>As of 2 months now, two different bank websites I try to log into are always impossible to log in using Firefox desktop browser - whereas, no problem at all using Google Chrome to do those logins. In one bank site, a 404 error page pops up upon trying to login. In the other site, the site simply ignores the entered login details and stalls on the login page. </p><p>What did Firefox updates do that created that consistent problem? I've done the usual cookie cache cleaning/ restart process, but the problem remains. </p>

content:
<p>Running Windows 10 64 bit with the latest updates on Firefox of 89.0.2. I cannot open a new tab to the google search bar by just opening a new tab. It defaults to showing a google search bar, but Firefox will not allow me to type into it. I am constantly redirected to the address bar to write my google searches or to a separate "search" in the same address bar, depending on which option I selected in settings.  </p><p>I only have two options in Settings: 1) Use the address bar for search and navigation or 2) Add search bar in toolbar. I have Google set as my search engine. </p><p>Your previous version of Firefox did allow me to do exactly what I wanted. Now I cannot. </p><p>Under "New Tab" you only allow for 2 selections; Firefox home or a blank page, the latter of which does not show the personalized "rows". If you allowed a Google option there, it might resolve my problem. </p><p>I attached a picture of my new tab; it shows the search bar for Google, but it now says "Firefox" where it use to have the ever changing "Google" Logo.  I do not mind the Firefox logo, but I seriously am upset that I am forced to type searches in the address bar. Who does that? </p><p>Furthermore, by forcing me to type in the address bar, its much harder to see what I am typing and allow for me to make corrections. Once I hit enter, it sends me to a typical Google search page, where I can then make changes, but this seems like an annoying step. </p><p>Am I missing something, some setting someplace where I can type in the search bar I indicated on my attachment? </p><p>On a side note: Thank you for adding a "Personalize" button on a new tab. It now allows me to add rows for shortcuts. Before I had to: </p><p>1.	Load about:config?filter=browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows in the Firefox address bar. 2.	Double-click on the preference browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows and change its value to the desired number of rows and click ok. 3.	Check the New Tab Page to see the change right away and modify the number of rows accordingly if needed. </p><p>Which I technically have yet to change, because I prefer more than the 4 row limit you set. You will see those shortcuts in the attachment for the new tab. </p><p>Thank you for your time. Be safe and have a good day. :) </p>

Like I said I have used it successfully in the past but usually it doesn't work. All customer service does is tell me to use a different browser.  </p><p>I have cleared my cache, removed Key Bank cookies and closed and reopened Firefox but none of that helped. </p><p>Note: I only use the Zelle app through Key Bank; it is not an app I have downloaded. </p><p>Suggestions appreciated.

<p>Hello! Sometime, all grafics of a newsletter styled by wordpress were no longer displayed. When hovering over the white grafic space the cursor changed, and by clicking, the grafic will displayed in full size. Very strange is, that it is only and only this special one side having this problem? First switched off the add-ons, then uninstalled all of them, suspecting the cause of the add ons. No change. So using the clean up function, and actually the problem seemed solved, the grafics are displayed correct.  - But only a minute as long as firefox is ready to restore certain settings automatically - the problem is back! Because of many bookmarks I need, I didn't dare to uninstall firefox befor, but also installed it new. No change. What can I do next if possible without losing my bookmarks and passwords? Perhaps another hint, the problem is only on my PC, this problem is not on my laptop with a nearly same firefox installation. Joachim </p>

Why does it seem Firefox does things differently besides guarding my seach when It comes to printing and missing files?

content:
<p>I'm a little frustrated with Firefox and how things are setup. First, when I had a Firefox or Mozilla I changed computers and when I signed in on the new computer I went to for stored files and hit the start button and went to where my files were stored they were missing.  Just now, I guess I asked for help and I to hit the contact button and then hit it again till finally I got to a page that I  could at least ask someone for help. So who ever sees my question please try to help me or tell me the secret to asking support. I asked this question before thinking support would see it but I had zero reply's. I guess I asked a stupid question and the no reply was what? A reason not to reply? They didn't have an answer? Who knows? I just wanted to find out about my stored files. I'm I supposed to reconnect my old computer to find them? I have another question about printing and Firefox's unique way of storing them different from other browsers? I'll ask that later. Thank you for enabling me to be able to search without worrying if it's private. Others browsers don't!  Please try and help me. Not everyone has deep computer knowledge so I do need help. Thanks, Rob A </p>

<p>The other day, I logged in to firefox from the firefox private page at a nekafe. When I got home, I woke up my home PC and tried to connect to the Internet, but it gave me a warning that it was set to connect manually to the wifi of the cafe and would not automatically select my home server. </p><p>At that time, I was able to manually select and connect to the wifi without any problems, but today, a few days later, a new firefox window opened separately from the work window, saying "You are not connected to the Wi-Fi in the store. </p><p>It seems that something in the connection settings has changed, but what should I look for to change it back? </p><p>Please help me find a solution. </p><p>Translated with <a href="http://www.DeepL.com/Translator" rel="nofollow">www.DeepL.com/Translator</a> (free version) </p>

<p>I have two versions of Firefox installed on my work PC, the regular one for my everyday browsing and the Developer's Edition for my work with the regular one being my default browser. For some reason, through no effort on my part, I ended up on the beta channel for the regular browser. </p><p>That was OK until the latest beta (version 90) started showing an extremely annoying bug. On a daily basis, on average, it will stop loading pages for no reason. For that reason, I'd like to get off of the beta channel and get back to using the release version. Would uninstalling the beta version and installing the release version do that for me? Or will I somehow end up back on the beta channel and get upgraded to the beta version again? (If I do have to uninstall the beta and install the release, I want to keep all of the settings, bookmarks, plugins, etc. that I have in that browser. I have the Dev Edition browser set up to never sync, so it has a different set of settings, etc., which I don't want carried over to the other browser.) </p>

<p>I am an older Firefox user and I often find myself enlarging and decreasing size of fonts on different websites to make them readable. Lately I notice I am having trouble with the fonts I am using so I need advice. What are the good fonts to use for Firefox? Also, what is the setting to adjust the fonts Firefox uses in the toolbars and address bar? </p><p>I am currently using as follows: Default: MIcrosoft Sans Serif (I like the clean lines of a sans serif, but I'm not wedded to any particular one. ) Size: 10 Proportional: Sans Serif Serif: Newsreader Sans Serif: MIcrosoft Sans Serif Monospace: Lucida Sans Font size: 10 Minimum size: 9 </p><p>The problem I am having is that text in the address bar is often unreadable due to artifacts that look like a digital font, you know, the blocks? If I highlight the URL inside, the artifacts clear up. I reinstalled Firefox but that problem didn't go away. I need to know which font Firefox uses for that area before I can even begin to try to fix it. Any font suggestions are also welcome. I particularly would like fonts that are readable in many sizes and free of flourishes. </p><p>By the way, I chose the image of Google News because I also have trouble with alt text showing, I can't figure out how to get rid of that so any ideas are welcome. It's just Google. </p>

<p>First: I delay the weekly useless downloads as long as possible.  Everytime I have to download you change things for the worse, and I spend sometimes even hours, like now, trying to get my things back to what they were. I do a lot of research and do not have time to continually have to go back and undo all of the changes to my very carefull set up toolbars at the top. Can I opt out of this madness except for the most truly vital downloads? Secondly:  After the latest download, I find a star symbol for bookmarks between my already too short search bar and my address bar. I use that space to lengthen my search bar a little as it does not allow a lot of length.  I wish there was a separate place for a long search bar as it never is long enough to make my searches fully visible.  I already had 4 symbols for bookmarks in my top toolbars. I don't need a damn star preventing space between the search and address bars. And when I need to clic on one of those bars, the star thing activates and I get bookmarks instead of the address bar, etc.  What is the point of these useless changes???  I went to the menu: it had 'customize tool bar' as one of the first options.  Now you have to hunt around for it. After wasting time, I found it:  you have to go all the way to the bottom of the options where you'll find tools; then click on the forward arrow beside it and that takes you to the customize toolbar menu. But when that comes up the page changes and the star symbol disappears. I have tried to drag the star symbol to some other places but it won't budge.  Does anyone know how I can get it off my toolbar? If not, is it ok for me to go back to my former version of ff, and how do I do that?  Thank you. Sorry for the rant, but this happens everytime and they never used to have updates all the time like they do now.  Everyone I know is aggravated about this.. </p>

<p>With the latest Firefox update 89.0.2 (64-bit) why would you make the tool bar difficult to customize? It is hard to find the correct option in the drop down menu, and unless you knew to right-click on the tool bar itself you would struggle to find how to customize the tool bar. So why program a feature that impedes one's ability to customize the tool bar? That is stupid and should be rethought through by your admins and programmers on the next update, especially since many on the web are not high tech minded and just trying to make their web surfing easy. Please look into this issue on your next update. </p><p>Thanks. </p><p>M. Black-A Dedicated Firefox User </p>

<p>Why doesn’t “CLEAR DATA” button actually clear all the Cookies, Site Data, or Cache for a period of time? Why doesn’t “Delete cookies and site data when FF closes” clear all junk? </p><p>I want to tell you why I almost never do the updates FF always asks me to do. •	NOTE:  I never set ANY PROGRAM to do automatic updates. I don’t want them slowing down or interrupting my system when I’m trying to get something done. I’ll decide when. •	It seems like FF does updates WAY TOO FREQUENTLY.  •	THE MAIN PROBLEM – After the 1st to 5th update, there will always be about 30k to 60k of Cookies, Site Data, or Cache that will not clear when I select “CLEAR DATA” in the “Cookies and Site Data” section of “Privacy &amp; Security”. What the heck; how can I be sure that it isn’t something that does not belong on my system? Maybe it’s something FF requires, but there is no way of knowing that, and no way of knowing what it is.  •	THE SECOND PROBLEM - Even though I always select to “Delete cookies and site data when FF closes”; FF does not automatically clear all of that junk. I always have to go in and manually do it. Seems to mostly happen if I’ve been on facebook, but they are not exclusive. I thought FF is supposed to be a secure way of being on the net? Perhaps that does not apply to certain web services or vendors. Perhaps that does not apply to whatever it is that the FF program will not allow me to clear from Cookies, Site Data, or Cache.  If I'm wrong please let me know, otherwise please forward to FF to hopefully fix. </p>

Is changing Bookmark Folder Colors a difficut feature to implement or is it just a low priority item?

content:
<p>I love the bookmark functionality in Firefox as I use bookmarks quite a bit. It also looks to be a much-used feature in the Firefox community. For organizational reasons, having different folder colors would make bookmarks much easier to use. Being able to right-click on a folder and change the color seems like a basic feature to me but it is one that is not available either as a functionality of Firefox or as an add-on.  Is this a feature that is too difficult to implement or just a low-priority item for us Firefox users? </p>

Can anyone point me to the updated Guide to set startup pages? I can only see restore previous tabs which I do not want. I tried searching but all I see are outdated guides which no longer applies.

I also used about:config and switched `security.mixed_content.block_display_content` from "false" to "true" </p><p>5.)

<p>So I went to history, and then under "manage history" it organized it by "today", "yesterday", "last 7 days", "this month", "june", "may", "april", "march", "february" and "older than 6 months". And on right clicking on today, there was a drop down menu that was "open all in tabs", "delete" and "copy". "Copy" was super duper worthless, it literally just copied the word "today" into the clipboard, in case I really wanted to paste the word "today" the hard way into notepad or something. I wanted to then test if I could delete the history from just today without deleting the entire history, so FOOL that I am, I tried the delete choice. And what did it do? It deleted the ENTIRE CATEGORY of "today". Now it just says "yesterday", "last 7 days", "this month", "june", "may", "april", "march", "february" and "older than 6 months". Because it seems to think that by deleting "today", that means I NEVER AGAIN want to access any history of that day, of COURSE that must be what I intended to do when I chose delete. It couldn't possibly be that I wanted to delete the browsing history of today July 9 2021, no of course not, I must have wanted to delete the entire category of "today" for all time, why would anyone want to just delete the history of that day when they can delete the entire functionality of the browser to display any of the history of the current day ever again. I'm trying to imagine what was going through the developers' heads here. So, can I, get it back somehow? I'm not going using that computer now, in case something can be done to undo this that won't work if I do anything. </p>

<p>I've been trying to start a fresh installation of Firefox on my desktop PC....both to start over, and also as part of troubleshooting a bug, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to stop all my synced Firefox Sync data in Accounts from downloading and overwriting my fresh installation's default settings/bookmarks/add-ons/plug-ins/etc. What happens I go through an entire routine to first uninstall my current installation of Firefox, then delete every trace of my old profile data that I can find, then reinstall Firefox, set it up as desired, and log into Firefox Accounts to sync my new configuration. What happens instead is my old synced config downloads to my local Firefox and overwrites all my settings. I don't want to delete my Firefox Accounts account, I just want to make my new profile overwrite the synced one after I'm done setting it up. </p><p>Things I've tried: -Signing out of my Firefox account on my old installation and selecting the option to delete my old synced data. -As many different combinations of refreshing Firefox+clearing all of my browsing history data+signing out of Accounts &amp; deleting my synced data......as I can think of, prior to uninstalling, and again after re-installing Firefox. -Logging into Firefox Accounts on my phone to confirm the deletion of my synced PC config </p><p><br> The last two options I can think of are to make sure *all* of my saved data in Accounts - across all of my devices and not just my PC - are deleted, and to try using the Profile Manage to create a new profile and upload that to Accounts........but I wanted to get someone else's input, as I've already burned several hours trying to figure this out. </p>

<p><strong>The problem:</strong> - Gifvs on certain websites like twitter will not load, and when I inspect it, it says: </p><pre>"Media resource XXXX.mp4 could not be decoded, error: Error Code: NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_DECODE_ERR (0x806e0004) Details: void mozilla::AppleVTDecoder::OnDecodeError(OSStatus): OnDecodeError:ffffcd9a" </pre> <p>- Other html5 mp4 videos work normally. - Same gifvs work normally in Safari. </p><p><strong>Things I have tried:</strong> - Clear the cache and cookies - Open the page in a private window with no extensions - Allow autoplay - Set image.animation_mode to normal - Restart in troubleshoot mode. This is the weird part: gifv does load in troubleshoot mode, and then if I simply restart firefox in normal mode, everything works fine magically (for any website). But it only lasts for a few hours, the next day it will break again. </p><p>Firefox version: 89.0.2 OS version: macOS Catalina 10.15.7 </p><p>Any thoughts on what goes wrong? </p>

<p>So since I was making a website for the first time, I registered a new domain name with the extension ".ml"(example <a href="http://something.ml" rel="nofollow">something.ml</a>) since I get it for free.

When I download the zip file on chrome, it works fine. But on Firefox, it says "This file is not commonly downloaded." I checked several hours but have failed to solve this issue which doesn't arrise in chrome or edge. Is it because of extension ".ml"?  </p><p>The code I used for sending the zip file was ``` $zip = new ZipArchive(); $zip-&gt;open("$zipcreated"); $sendfolder = "$zipcreated"; header('Content-type: application/zip'); header('Content-Description: File Transfer'); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$sendfolder"); header('Expires: 0'); header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate'); header('Pragma: public'); $size = filesize($sendfolder); header('Content-Length: ' . filesize("$sendfolder")); ob_clean(); readfile($sendfolder); ``` I tried using missingpadlock website and other checks but have failed to understand where the problem lies. Any help would be greatly appreciated! </p>

<p>Hi, I have the latest FF version (89.0.2) installed on Windows 10. In the last 2 months I have weird memory leaks. I have two users on my PC and it happens only on one of them. It doesn't matter how many tabs are open and it can happen after 1 min or half an hour (so it's not consistent). When I have not tabs it seems to be OK. </p><p>Already tried disabling all the extensions and also launched in safe mode but nothing solved it. The only thing that worked is resetting FF but after a few weeks the issue is back again. When it starts to hang the window becomes unresponsive and I can see the memory usage soaring until I kill the process. I have no clue where to start debugging the issue after trying to disable extensions and resetting. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! </p>

<p>I'm trying to increase my default zoom. The problem is most of the sites I use most often are remaining at 100% zoom, and therefore their font size is not changing when I change the default in my settings. Another site I'm often on is set to 85% zoom for ?? reasons?? and stays stuck there no matter what I do. I thought these were problems with the Fixed Zoom extension, but I've disabled that extension and the problems haven't gone away. (And the problem I got that extension to fix in the first place, in which dw-news dot dreamwidth dot org and dw-beta dot dreamwidth dot org and every single user or community on dreamwidth dot org are all apparently different sites and I want to be able to set the correct zoom for all of Dreamwidth *once*, is of course back.) How do I clear out the site-by-site zoom settings so everything goes back to default zoom? </p>

creator: c0292ag0j
content:
<p>One or more form(s) of such lagginess have been occurring for me for at least a year, such that I have to restart Firefox every couple weeks to avoid the frustration. </p><p>The lags seem to apply to all of my inputs. For example, when switching tabs, typing in the URL bar or text boxes, or clicking a link. Lag time increases maybe linearly since the last Firefox restart. Within 2 weeks after the last restart, it can easily reach 2 seconds of lag on every input. </p><p>Fairly certain the lagginess always corresponds with high "memory pressure" (red/yellow in macOS Activity Monitor's RAM graph). I have 16 GB RAM. At least this most recent time, I noticed kernel_task's real memory usage was 5 GB, but its regular memory was only at ~0.5 GB. Firefox's regular memory usage was at 12 GB, real memory usage was maybe 5 GB. Firefox's "Minimize memory usage" lowered Firefox's regular memory, but not kernel_task's. And in general, I believe "Minimize memory usage" has never helped with the lag (always needs a Firefox restart). </p><p>Here is a Firefox memory report from last time the lagginess happened: <a href="https://file.io/adNYhkzolQOj" rel="nofollow">https://file.io/adNYhkzolQOj</a> </p><p>I do usually have hundreds of tabs. This lagginess was never a problem on an Ubuntu desktop I used with a very similar setup (add-ons, preferences, websites), but that desktop had far more RAM. Is hundreds of open tabs always going to cause trouble eventually given 16 GB RAM due to inescapable memory leaks that Firefox cannot free? </p><p>about:performance has never shown anything that looked odd to me. I think it never looks massively different than it does as I write this for example (shortly after a restart), where the highest-memory entries are Add-ons Manager and Task Manager at ~200 MB, followed by individual tabs with a max of 40 MB but mostly far lower. It's possible a couple extensions (especially Tree Style Tab I think?) reach higher memory over time, but I'm fairly certain they're always under say 1 GB. </p><p><br> </p><p>I've cleared cookies &amp; cache many times. I'd rather not remove extensions because I find so many of them so immensely useful, and the lagginess takes a long time to show up. I've already tried disabling all extensions I rarely use. I've customized about:config and my extensions a decent amount, so I don't really want to Refresh, but maybe I should? </p><p>Thanks a ton for any help. </p>

<p><strong>tl;dr - Refreshed Firefox, most of my profile has restored normally, but not Bookmarks (or Browsing History). I cannot restore Bookmarks from the <em>.json</em> backups, and I do not have an HTML backup.</strong> </p><p>Firefox would not load any pages this morning, even after updating to most recent version (89) and restarting the app then the entire computer, so I refreshed Firefox. Good news is, pages load now! Bad news is my bookmarks all disappeared, and they were still gone even after I made the Bookmarks Toolbar visible. The Import Bookmarks button only gives me the option to import from Internet Explorer or Chrome, but not from previous version of Firefox. </p><p>I went to Manage Bookmarks, and the Import and Backup seems to have some recent bookmark back-ups, giving me options for back-ups from today (Monday) then Saturday (last new bookmark), etc. But when I try to import bookmarks this way, it says Unable to process the backup file. My Firefox profile has backups, but only as .json files, no HTML bookmark files, which is the only other importing option. The rest of my profile seems to have imported fine - when I go to my inboxes or regularly visited websites, I'm still logged in. </p><p>Strangely, Firefox also seems to have forgotten my browsing history. In the URL bar, it'll show my search history, but <em>not</em> my visited pages, which makes the lack of Bookmarks even more aggravating and harder to deal with. </p><p><strong>Edit: I restarted the app <em>again</em> and this time, my bookmarks were in place, and my browsing history is back when I type into the URL bar. I do not know how to mark this question as solved or delete this question.</strong> </p>

<p>Hello Mozilla Support! </p><p>It is 0500 here so I will try to get to the point with a little problem. I have just created an account here as I have been unable to get much sense from people in IT (retail mainly) or general tech forums which has led to a certain degree of frustration regarding FF bookmarks. But first, I want to say that I have been using FF browser for sixteen years and love it - I am aware of Chrome but prefer Fox; I dislike IE. Thank you for all you are doing. </p><p>A little background: in March my old pc suddenly packed up and it felt like an old friend had died. It was running Win-7 (Pro) which I knew was no longer supported but I liked it, and the pc was reliable for ten years. I was told that the motherboard (ASUS) had gone, and after numerous questions and delays, the computer has been rebuilt with a new z590 mb (also ASUS), a gen 11 cpu and a SS drive running Win-10 as it was time to upgrade. I don't like Win-10 at this point because W7 seemed easier to use - I am not a gamer, just a browser. I still have the Win-7 Pro disc but have been told that this new MB will not boot Win-7. I will try to get around this somehow. </p><p>The main issue is this: over the years I had collected a large number of bookmarks, and although I was not using many of them, I think it's useful to save things and with FF it is easy to do. The old C drive from the computer (the 3.5 type - by WD) is now in a drive-reading enclosure and I can see Programs and Folders. I feed it into the computer I am using atm - an older pc running Win-7 Home. I found the Mozilla Firefox folder and another one named 'bookmarks' but I cannot see any reference to the bookmarks I saved or any option to Export Bookmarks. I know what this means as I have used it successfully before. </p><p>So, please tell me if it is possible to find then Save and/or Export those bookmarks from the enclosed C drive to either THIS computer or preferably the other (rebuilt) computer, bearing in mind that the other one is operating as described with a z590 mb. Will it be possible? Many thanks in advance! </p><p>Btw, I really did NOT like Win-10 when I finally got that other pc back - LATE JUNE!! - after weeks of waiting. The first thing I did was install Firefox and it felt better immediately. Again I thank you! Michael. </p>

<p>I recently had an attack by a  phishing expedition via email. I had to, at the banks recommendation, change account numbers etc. I did click, to my chagrin, on a link within the email (from my bank, or so it said). Since then I have had further attempts by email to access my computer/banking info. This morning 5 minutes after a purchase via PayPal I received a phishing phone call! Too much of a coincidence for my liking! I have Big Sur as system software, Malwarebytes, and I use Firefox and Safari. Primarily Firefox. I have had a sudden seizing up/ultra slowdown within Firefox...to a lesser degree Safari. What to do? </p>

locale: en-US
creator: singhgere
content:
<p>Firefox Nightly cannot be found in the 'Software' store, so probably the only way to download it is by going to the website and getting a tar.bz2 file. I got that, extrated it and placed it in the/opt folder, made an application shortcut, added an icon, and now it's working like a normal app.  The problem arises when it tries to auto-update. Firefox Nightly updates very frequently, sometimes more than once per day, and on windows, I used to get a notification saying that a new update is released, and if i wanted to install it. Clicking yes, Firefox would update and restart within moments, and restore all my tabs and windows seamlessly.  Here on Linux, I have to manually download the new tar.bz2 file, extract it, replace it in the specified folder, and launch Firefox Nightly again, and again and again usually once per every alternate day, whenever the new update comes. Is there a solution for this? Will Firefox someday release a .deb file for easy installation and updates? My PC : Dell Optiplex 3070 OS : Zorin OS 16 Core (based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) </p>

<p>Since the upgrade to 89, I have a problem with Youtube that, judging by Google results, nobody else on earth has. </p><p>If I click on a video, it starts to play normally but as soon as the page finishes loading the video stops and returns to the start of the video. I have to click the play button to get it to play, which it then does without any issues. </p><p>The same problem happens when videos are part of one of Youtube's playlists. Video starts, page finishes loading, video stops and goes back to the start. </p><p>I've been through too many Google searches, tried about:config changes, policy changes, toggling autoplay in Youtube, installed extensions that supposedly control autoplay. Nothing works. </p><p>This was not a problem with 88 when I first had it. When 89 first appeared, I was so frustrated with the wasteful display setup that I uninstalled Firefox and went back to 88; this was when the Youtube issue first appeared. I upgraded back to 89 when I found out how to turn off Proton (because my Bookmark menu shouldn't mostly wasted vertical space) but the Youtube problem persists. </p><p>Somebody, please tell me how to fix this. </p>

<p>Muy buenas. Hace una semana que Google me recomendó cambiar la contraseña por una brecha de seguridad. Lo hice y, desde entonces, cada media hora me desconecta y me solicita volver a introducir la contraseña para verificar mi identidad (adjunto captura de pantalla). Se está volviendo muy molesto, puesto que ocurre incluso cuando estoy redactando un correo. Sólo me sucede con Firefox, no con otros navegadores (Chrome), por lo que entiendo que es algún problema específico. He intentado borrar las cookies, cerrar e iniciar de nuevo el navegador, el ordenador, reiniciar Firefox en Modo Seguro, cambiar la configuración de Seguridad, pero nada de eso soluciona el problema. Sólo me resta desinstalar o reiniciar Firefox a su configuración original, pero antes de recurrir a algo tan drástico (que no sé si arreglará el problema), quería consultar por si alguien puede ofrecer alguna otra posible solución o explicación a lo que sucede. Muchas gracias. </p>

<p>When I remove the title bar on Linux, I can't move the cursor to the very top right and click X to close the window, because there is a tiny gap left and I have to bring the cursor a tiny bit back, which makes it a annoyingly fiddly. Only on Firefox, not on Linux windows like files managers or apps. </p><p><a href="https://forums.linuxmint.com/download/file.php?id=68646&amp;sid=ca2e90344f4898d95f744e49fefaac2d" rel="nofollow">With title bar</a> <a href="https://forums.linuxmint.com/download/file.php?id=68647&amp;sid=ca2e90344f4898d95f744e49fefaac2d" rel="nofollow">Without title bar</a> </p><p>This happens on all themes and all Linux distros. I notice that FF's default in Linux is to have the title bar enabled (probably because of this bug) unlike Windows FF's title bar is disabled by default. </p><p>If it helps, Brave on Linux has an option in their settings that says "use default system border themes" - it is disabled by default which means their own UI overrides Linux's, which certainly solves the problem with the gap between the close button to the edge of the screen on FF. </p>

I am not a sophisticated user (have private vpn and work vpn) and mostly watch videos, surf the net, do some online shopping, etc. Do I really need this? 3) If I unload it (via Settings/Privacy &amp; Security, etc.) will it screw anything up? </p><p>This never happened before I updated to Catalina or signed up for a private VPN. </p><p>Your help is greatly appreciated. </p>

When I updated to Firefox 89, the browser no longer used my Windows 10 default font. That disappointed me a great deal because I did not like the font that Firefox 89 used.

<p>Hi There,  </p><p>I am using Firefox after moving away from chromium based browsers and have noticed some odd behaviour from Firefox build 89.0.2 and would like some help if possible.  </p><p>The issue is, when typing quickly and i must remove the entirety of my input, i will press CTRL + A to highlight all, and sometimes hit the backspace button quickly and it will only move the cursor to the far left and does not delete the selection.  </p><p>This is not the only issue with combo shortcuts, i have realised that CTRL + C sometimes will not copy the selection and is causing minor annoyance with using this browser.  </p><p>If could be user error, however, the same usage on other browsers/windows UI never has this problem, and i am strugling to find information about this online hence the post.  </p><p>Any information would be greatly apreciated.  </p><p>TIA Brad </p>

<p>The update to FF 89 caused a big problem.  Large spaces in between the bookmarked web sites when the window unfolds.  So now, many bookmarks don't fit in the window, and to get to the bottom - the ones I can't see - I have to click the arrow at the bottom.  But making it worse, is that if I do go to the bottom, the next time I open the bookmark tab, the list will open at the bottom (it doesn't revert to the top).  So I'd have to scroll up to get to the ones at the top - AND the "Other Bookmarks" tab, where I also store bookmarked sites. </p><p>I list my bookmarks in the order they're in so I can get to the ones I go to most often as fast as possible.  So they're at the top - I don't have to scroll far to get to them.   And the "Other Bookmarks" is hidden when the window opens at the bottom.  So I'd have to scroll up to get to that as well.    </p><p>Also, this update changed the size of the command windows - like the copy/paste window, or the window to get the correct spelling of the word.  They're so big, they run from the top of the screen to bottom, instead of a small square.  So you'll have to scroll way up to get to the command or word you want.    </p><p>I did find a way to get it back to what it was: </p><p>1. Open a tab and enter about:config, click OK after the warning 2. Search proton, a few will come up, change all the ones that are true to false.   One was already false so I kept it, and the last one had a 3, which I kept. 3. Exit and open FF. </p><p>This will also revert the right-click command boxes back to small squares. </p><p>I posted this on this message board but this was added: </p><p>==WARNING: There are plans to remove this preference in the next two months The preference setting was created as a toggle for developers when building the new design. Now that the new interface has shipped, the preference will be removed. </p><p>If you have any issues with the new design, please let us know what it is you don't like, and we can try provide more permanent solutions depending on the issue.== </p><p>No!  Do NOT remove this preference!   Either that or just get it back to what it was by default.  I do not want longer bookmark menus and larger command windows.  It was perfect the way it was. </p>

<p>Как вы можете мне помочь? Я сам не знаю. Сама проблема в том, что открываешь сайт(любой сайт, вообще без разницы) и ничего не происходит, новая вкладка конечно открывается, но дальше ниче не происходит при этом в адресной строке сама ссылка есть и все равно ничего не происходит... Проблема решается конечно просто, просто сиди и обновляй страницу, однако спешу сообщить сие действие тупое, так как зависит от твоей удачи на сей день(ебать меня в сраку). Аргумент, вот сижу я и листаю ленту, да?, в общем хочу музыку послушать и, естественно, открываю спотифай чтобы словить расслабон, но там парил на поверхности воды огромный болт! Мне пришлось обновлять чертов спотифай точка ком на протяжении 10 минут, послушать музыку, я человек простой и после данного инцидента начал материться и материть огненную лисицу, а в частности их программистов, не предусмотревших такой казус. В тот день я так и не смог послушать свою музыку... Насчет браузера стоит он у меня на ПК уже порядка 3-4 лет, такой головки от члена не было в начале моего опыта с браузером. Последний год или полтора года это случается со мной ЕЖЕДНЕВНО и я крайне недоволен, это очень обидная вещь рушащая мое очко. Интересный факт, сам этот баг случается всегда после очистки кэша, что очень надоедает, потому что кэш очищается регулярно. Надеюсь что это хоть кто-нибудь прочитает и услышит мою печаль. И очень, очень надеюсь что мой высер никто не удалит(because its on russian we should delete it, yeah great plan pal) и помогут с данной проблемой, ведь именно это каждый день трахать меня в очко без смазки бесплатно без регистрации и смс.

<p>The "Launch meeting" button (Zoom) does not have any effect.  Under settings, no app for zoommtg is present nor are there any ways I can find to add one.  I searched all over the web, and tried tweaking/adding settings in about:config, to no avail.  On its own, the zoom client works fine from the command line ("./zoom/ZoomLauncher).   Firefox also works flawlessly ("./firefox/firefox) -- I can watch You Tube videos, log onto bank accounts, even use Google Meet, all without any issue.   When I can visually parse a link, and manually copy the meeting ID and password to the Zoom client, I can even attend a zoom meeting;  However, for links that are not easily parsed in such a manner, I clearly cannot do this.   I am using Firefox 89 and Zoom installed in a new account (clean) in userspace.   I have years of Linux/Unix experience and am sure there is a simple solution.  If I could at least get Firefox to ask for the application to use to handle the link, that would solve the problem!  Everything is running under Debian 10, 64-bit OS. </p>

<p>Hello, As far as I know, OCSP checking is enabled by default in Firefox and the default timeout is 2000ms. </p><p>I am interested to know whether the request is blocking call, ie: the page load halts before the OCSP response(s) are at hand.  Furthermore, which files should I edit to 1) disable OCSP checking, 2) Increase the timeout value of OCSP checking. P.S.  I am building Firefox on Linux using this manual: <a href="https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/linux_build.html" rel="nofollow">https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/setup/linux_build.html</a> </p>

<p>I use the screenshot function for my job, saving finished website is really nice. I noticed though that for some reason background images are not being captured. Instead those areas that have a background image are just blank in the background. I check the full page to make sure everything is loaded on the page before I initiate the full screen screenshot, but I still receive blank background sections. Attached is an example, there are two gray blank sections which should be showing a parallax image. Is it because we are using a parallax image for the background? The Colony Custom Homes image shows a sliver of the image right above the blue section, the blue section actually uses the image as the background. It is also a parallax background image. </p>

I've tried the following and none have helped: </p><p>Close and reopen Firefox Refresh Firefox Uninstall and reinstall Firefox Restart my computer Print from the system dialog Print from the Firefox dialog Cleared all add-ons Print from a different computer with a different FF account Print to a different printer Print to PDF </p><p>I've attached the PDF (after converting to JPG as required by this page) which was printed through Firefox which shows the issue. The same page prints normally in Edge and Chrome. I printed the same page yesterday without issue and when I did the test from another computer with a different FF account, it printed normally, the browser updated and had the problem so it's definitely something with the most recent FF update. </p><p>This may seem minor in scope since it only effects certain sites but it's a huge problem for me as I print quite a few pages from this site daily for order processing. Thank you to anyone who can help! </p><p>Derek </p>

<p>This is a hard problem to explain, but certain aspects of various Microsoft web apps don't work properly when accessed via Firefox. The two most recent problems I've noticed have been  </p> <ol><li> when using Outlook Web, I cannot change my email signature. The frame that's supposed to let me type in an email signature is there, but visually blank, and I can't click in it. </li><li> when using OneNote Web, there is a giant blank bar in the middle of the page (<a href="https://i.redd.it/oy212248o7b71.png" rel="nofollow">picture</a> picture). I can't click on it or interact with it in any way. </li></ol> <p>I'd prefer to keep using Firefox, and I'd prefer to NOT download the desktop app versions of these programs. Can anyone think of a reason this problem might be occurring, and how to fix it? I'm using Firefox 89.0.2 (64 bit), Windows 10 Home 2004, and this has been happening for at least the last few months </p>

<p>I've had a smooth ride with firefox sync for a few years now and I have admired how quick and safe it has been. I was a long time xmarks user. However today it went off the rails. I booted a virtual machine for the first time in years and while on that vm I used firefox. That copy of firefox had never had sync enabled and the bookmarks were very old. I uncautiously turned sync on, thinking that it'd favor the current bookmarks over years old bookmarks. Nope. Now I find all of my active instances of firefox (all windows flavors) have bookmarks from 2016. Two things.  </p> <ol><li>1 What's the best way to restore my current bookmarks? I have backups from last night and maybe even more recent. I know how to restore bookmarks...but I'm concerned that sync will just repeat the same error and adjust to the 2016 set.  </li><li>2 How did this happen? I have gotten to trust sync so much that I just enabled on the old firefox without taking any precautions. That was probably a mistake plain and simple - sync is complex and that sort of gap in dates could be unanticipated. But still it seems odd that sync would favor an ancient set over the current set. </li></ol> <p>Firefox is a great browser and sync is part of that greatness. Thank you mozilla. </p>

The problem occurs at completely different times. Sometimes after 2 minutes and sometimes only after 15 minutes. Other browsers work and otherwise I have no problems with the sound. I cleared the cache and cleaned Firefox. Unfortunately, the problem still persists. I have no idea what else to do now. </p>

<p>Help! In Firefox 89 (as in all previous) all open tabs lined up at the top (first screen shot). When I updated to 90, they disappeared and only one (current) tab shows up at bottom right (second screen shot). I cannot find a way to see all open tabs as before - only when I close the current tab will the entire lineup of open tabs show for a moment and then go back to the single current open tab. I can't work this way and it's driving me crazy. I've searched online, tried changing settings in about:config and nothing seems to want to put all open tabs back up top where they were. What am I missing?  (More - I am trying to upload a screen shot and just get the spinning gear. The file is below the upload size limit. I'm going to try submitting this anyway.) </p>

creator: freddy.furlan
content:
<p>Da qualche giorno ho un problema con la visualizzazione del font Times New Roman normale nei testi dei siti web. In pratica i caratteri appaiono speculari. Questo è successo dopo che ho installato un font di mia creazione che avevo chiamato Times New Roman Mirror che mi serve, abbastanza raramente, per riprodurre delle scritte speculari.  Ovviamente ho disinstallato il font in questione ma il problema permane solo con Firefox mentre su Chrome tutto funziona correttamente come peraltro in tutte le altre applicazioni come Word, Excel ecc.  Prima di procedere con una nuova installazione di Firefox, che essendo il mio browser preferito, ha ormai al suo interno moltissimi dati personali memorizzati, con la perdita dei dati stessi, volevo chiedere se qualcuno ha suggerimenti per risolvere il problema.  Tra l'altro non sono nemmeno sicuro che una nuova installazione risolverebbe il problema. Premetto che ho provato a sostituire il font predefinito nelle preferenze ma non ho ottenuto alcun risultato e qualsiasi font metta Firefox mantiene sempre il TNR. Da notare che l'anomalia si presenta solo con il TNR normale mentre invece (come si può notare nell' immagine allegata) il Grassetto sembra non avere problemi. Ho provato a creare nuovi profili sulla base di vecchi dati salvati in precedenza ma nulla è cambiato. La prova finale è stata quella di cercare anche con about:config ma ho lasciato tutto inalterato dato che non saprei nemmeno come o cosa cercare. Un ringraziamento anticipato per qualsiasi suggerimento. </p>

<p>Windows 7x64 desktop PC, FF 90.0(64), Startup set to 'restore previous session'. </p><p>When researching subjects I can often run with 60 - 80 tabs open. Frequently, if I take time out to do some other pressing task (in response to email etc.) and that task opens a new window, sometimes closing my main window without my knowledge, this appears to cause a problem for FF in that if the new window is closed after I've finished the task and now find that my main window has already been closed, the restore tabs procedure restores the last session tabs and appears to have dumped my main session tabs. As you will readily understand, this makes it a long drawn out problem trying to restore my working point from history when I can't remember exactly which tabs were still open or which page I had landed on. I do hope you follow all that. My question is how can I prevent this from messing me up again in future? Is there a way to retain session details so I can select them again after other windows have been opened and closed? Can you please avoid techie answers cos' they'll be over my head ;-), Thanks in advance. </p>

Some pages take a second or longer to load, and I don't want to wait to click a different shortcut. I can also click the X to stop the current page loading and then other shortcuts work fine. It's when the current page is still loading which ANY other bookmark is clicked that Firefox merely reloads the page that I'm already on. This is really annoying. It will do it continuously if I keep clicking on any shortcut when the page loads. The same page, the original page. Forever. </p>

I've clicked on history, manage history, then Import and Backup, then Restore, and then I tried choosing the file from before I had to reinstall, but when I click on that file and click open, I get the message, this will replace all of your current bookmarks with the backup. Are you sure? I click ok, but nothing happens.

<p>I have used Firefox for years as my browser with the Sitelio Editor for creating blog posts. When Firefox updated to version 90 I could no longer copy text into the editor. I can not find any settings to change to allow the copy to take place. Until I find a way to fix this I am forced to discontinue using Firefox and switch to Chrome. I really do not want to do that. </p>

I have reset the print settings in Firefox, run Firefox in troubleshooting mode, and refreshed Firefox.  </p><p>Print preview will show the pages correctly with reduced size, but when printed, the bottom half of each page is blank. However, in print preview, if I change the settings to only print the first page, the preview will then show the first page with the bottom half missing.  </p><p>I am wondering if this problem is caused by the latest Windows update. That is the last change to the computer I am aware of before this printing problem occurred. </p><p>Anything else I can try to resolve this issue? </p>

<p>If during the download of OS Endless 3.9.5 there is no Internet access, and then provide it for this laptop, then the Firefox browser (89.0.2) reports that it cannot display the website (any).

All Mozilla support recommendations for the case when all other browsers on this computer display the Internet, but Firefox does not, have followed. Did not help. How to make Firefox after turning on the Internet again, as it were, read in Endless that the Internet is already there, or force it to connect to the module that distributes the Internet? In order not to overload the entire operating system to work with the Internet through Firefox. </p>

<p>FBI's suggestion was to start with an IC3 Complaint. I forgot to tell you. They tried to erased the almost 100GB of evidence I have including the 18GB of devastating evidence against them.  Well they infected 3 hardware devices I own hoping that I would insert the flash drives with the evidence in the computer and then they can wipe them clean. I lost 75GB but recovered 52GB from a back up scheme I had. Most important: Now I have them in the act of setting up their trap in my computer, plus I have 3 hardware devices infected with their code. One is a USB type A to USB type C adapter by Belkin. they know the whole thing. I spoke to their security all the way to their corporate offices. As you know they're also a defense contractor. The 2nd device is a 3.3 USB reader by SanDisk (Western Digital). I started telling them until they blocked me. So they only know their device was modify to do evil. But I didn't have time to tell them that 2 additional devices suffered the same thing. So, SanDisk thinks they are the only company. The 3rd device is from Kingston it's 3.0 USB card reader but but the time I finished with SanDisk I couldn't communicate with Kingston. Unless the security force from Belkin told them, they are unaware that their device was used for nefarious purposes by MS and GGL (But attempt to abbreviate.)  Bottom line I have the dramatic footage of 18GB and 3 hardware devices. of their code. I hope these info gets to you. I have to take a tiny break. I'm sending you these so it won't disappear, And additional items in 45 minutes at the latest. As always, Thank you </p>

<p>This problem has been around since the latest version of the old version, and has carried across into the new version.  Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V no longer work with Google Translate on linux.  I have tested in other browsers and it they all work fine.  Firefox on Windows also works fine, this problem seems specific to linux. </p><p>When you press any of the Ctrl combinations it simply deselects everything and moves the cursor to the end of the text.  Mouse works, but it's not practical if you are cutting and pasting all day long. </p><p>Site: <a href="https://translate.google.com" rel="nofollow">https://translate.google.com</a> Firefox version: 89.0.2 (64-bit) OS: Ubuntu 20.04 </p><p>Google Translation is critical to my work so my current solution is I no longer use Firefox.  I hope that someone knows of a quick fix, or if it's a bug it's easy to fix as I'd hate to permanently move away from Firefox for something like this. </p><p>Thanks! </p>

<p>Some have reported that the 90.0 update has messed with the Menu Bar text colour. In the "Dark" theme, the tabs are black, the Menu Bar is black and the Menu Bar text is black. I can confirm this on Linux Mint 20.1 and Win 10 21H1. I Also confirmed it to be working correctly on ver 89 for both Mint and Win. I also confirmed that the update for ver 89 turned on automatic  updates for Firefox (Linux and Win) without notifiying me that it was changing my settings and ver 90 appears to no longer allow user control of updates. </p><p>Also, About Mozilla Firefox, Ver 90.0 (64-bit), says it's for Linux Mint 1.0 Is it possible that this is the reason the Menu Bar is messed-up in the Dark Theme? </p>

<p>Since the most recent Firefox update when I download the local newspaper (PDF) and use Firefox to "Open" it, Firefox takes a long time to load the file and when I try to go from one page to another it is very slow and jerky like it has to reload each page.  Used to work smoother than Adobe Acrobat Reader DC but not now. Tried running Firefox in "Troubleshoot mode" and tried a Firefox "Refresh".  Didn't help.

<p>Hi, some shortcuts are so generally known and used everywhere and the fact that Firefox intercepts them changing their behavior may be confusing. Let's take <strong>Control B</strong> for example: it is generally used (e.g. by every online editor or composer, like Gmail ) to set a bold font at the selected text. In Firefox this triggers instead opening bookmarks list, which is highly confusing. Shouldn't this shortcut be disabled by default? Or at least create an extremely evident (e.g. in the welcome page after install) way to disable it. Thank you </p>

<p>Hello. I work as Help desk support at a company (500+ AD users) and we all use Mozilla Browser (89.0.2 right now). in the past we used Windows XP and Mozilla latest ESR version, but we migrated recently to Windows 10 so we have to use the latest version of Firefox Browser. The problem that im facing now is that the maintenance service and Firefox update needs administrator privileges to update...and i just cant connect to all users and input the administrator password ... Is there a way to update automatically the Firefox Browser , without user intervention, something in regent or services or about:config ? (about config is already set to true for updates) All the users are in the domain and use AD files and folders on servers. i am aware of the risks of grading user the right to install...but we are well protected by the enterprise antivirus and multiple filters and firewalls...i just need a way to auto update the Firefox Browser to the latest version (90 i think)...and other versions to be released. Thank you. </p>

<p>I've already found the solution, but wanted to share that Version 90 created a problem with Print Preview and Shrink to Fit. Uninstalling Version 90 and re-installing Version 89 fixed the problem. With Version 90 the Print Preview function (which I love) didn't work properly. When I try to Shrink to Fit any page, the first page shrinks, but the second page isn't pulled into the first page. Also, there's missing information on both pages. If there's another solution so I can use Version 90, please tell me. If not, and Mozilla is doing away with Print Preview (and Shrink to Fit), I'll have to do away with Mozilla Firefox. Sorry, but that's the main reason I use Firefox over Chrome. Perhaps I can find another browser to do what I want. I hope not though. </p>

<p>Win10 and Firefox (89, and 90 does not correct it) is only running an older no-longer-existing version of my javascript file (from the html web file).  It does not access the new edited javascript file with same file name.  Sounds impossible, but I have edited the javascript file (including added an alert to change the modified date again), but Both the debugger and the regular direct URL continue to run the older script file (the new alert does not trigger, and the older code is directly visible in debugger, which does not match new file that exists).   Firefox will not access the new edited javascript file.   It always worked fine until this week, but not now.  This old file that runs does not exist on my computer, except obviously in some Firefox cache.  I have cleared cache, and disabled Cache in the Firefox Network tab, with no effect.  It is a shutdown situation now.  To continue using Firefox, how can I bypass this bug to be able to access and use the edited Javascript file?  I've used Firefox and Javascript a few years, and never saw this before. </p>

<p>Issue only started immediately after upgrading to FF 90.0. </p><p>I'll be browsing normal pages, the same pages I've always used that have worked, and suddenly FF will go to a white screen (including all the tabs).  If I wait a moment, FF seems to decide on a whim whether to go back to normal behavior or to crash completely.  There doesn't seem to be a pattern of a particular website or time that FF has been active. </p><p>I have tried reinstalling FF, updating addons, clearing cache. </p>

<p>For 3 days now, I have not been able to view or use anything in my Facebook account. The page would drop the internet because it was too slow.  I have tried various things from support and also received 1 from the community. it has not worked so I am going to switch to Microsoft Edge because I did not experience this problem with ME. I have used Firefox for years but the slowness is very annoying. I will try it again in the future. Thank you </p>

<p>Hola, buenas tardes. No es posible "bajar" la versión 90. Tampoco es posible utilizar la 89.0.2. En todos los intentos por "abrir" termina sin responder justo después de hacer los ajustes de seguridad que he hecho siempre. Los problemas empiezan porque no borra el historial. Respecto a la 90.0, al tratar de "bajarla" aparece un mensaje relativo a la imposibilidad de "leer" algo que no sé qué es. He intentado "bajar" esta versión varias veces, desde la "Red" y desde la "página" de ustedes.  Siempre resulta la misma "imposibilidad". Por cierto uso Mac y soy usuario de Firefox desde tantas versiones que no me acuerdo  de la primera que "bajé" exitosamente. Siempre he "actualizado" con sencillez. Es la primera vez que tengo problemas insolubles. Si leen esta nota, les agradezco de antemano su atención. Por mientras, muchos saludos. </p>

<p>I have always used a primary password (aka master password) on Firefox and today I went to look for a password and it didn't ask me for the primary password. Could this be malicious?  I use Malware bytes paid version. I doubt I did it accidentally. I've reset the password. How can I add a reliable additional layer of security on this? Many thanks in advance. Charlie </p>

<p>I went through all the basic steps of importing my saved passwords from Safari to Firefox, and it worked, but...only for HALF or less than half of what I have in Safari. I have the latest versions of both, and tried multiple times to do it over, but always the same result; Firefox will tell me 'success,' but only give me a partially imported list. Does anyone have any idea at all how to solve this problem, how to work around it with extra steps, or even WHY it's happening? Thank you! </p>

<p>I keep the "Recommended by Pocket" section collapsed throughout most of the workday to prevent distractions when opening new tabs. Recently I've found the section can't be collapsed anymore. I know that I can disable Pocket on the homepage, but I don't want to do that. I still want it available for me to take breaks or when I'm finishing up with something. The collapse feature was ideal for me. </p><p>This may sound petty, but it's a real issue. I would rather stop using Pocket than let it distract me all day. I could write a bookmarklet to deal with it, but not everyone has that option. </p><p>Is there still any way to toggle this section? If not, why was this feature removed, and can this feature be brought back? </p>

<p>I have been using Firefox for well over 10 years but for the last few months my firefox browser began running slowly; the audio was slow and I thought that something went wrong with my sound card on my desktop. I would restart the computer and it would work fine for several days then firefox would slow again. Then about 3 or 4 weeks ago firefox crashed and I was never able to get it to launch. The crash report appeared but firefox would not launch. </p><p>I went through the steps from support at mozilla and tried uninstalling and reinstalling and all the other   procedures but no joy. </p><p>It seems that my audio problem is a firefox problem since other browsers have no problem. My windows 10 is up to date and so is firefox. I just don’t know where to go from here. I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you in advance. </p>

<p>Hello.  Does anyone know how to set up Firefox to open PDFs automatically without this little screen popping up? To me, automatically means to just opens with Adobe, but I still keep getting this screen - which I don’t want. The fewer the steps/clicks I have to do the better. Thanks in advance. Using a Windows 10 Home Edition Desktop Firefox Version 9.0 </p>
