Firefox Community Forum

In the previous version of Firefox I could install a multiple language keyboard layouts in the upper right row. I had to reset everything with a new HDD an Ubuntu 24, which comes with Firefox as well. Now I can't find how to install those shortcuts. I need to use Slovenian, Italian, Spanish, German and US keyboards (UK is standard with UK English as primary choice). Thank you for your help.

Hi, on FF for Mac vers.131.x. As of last couple of months' updates, the Save as PDF title has changed to Untitled. Prior the PDF title took the name of the web site. I want the latter. How do I change Settings? cheers

Please explain in simple terms (I am not an IT wizz) how I can stop the continual popups in Firefox 128 and Thunderbird 78 on a Windows 11 OS saying “Update Available” with a Download button very easily activated by mistake.

Each time I click Dismiss, a new popup appears either immediately or very soon. The popup blocks a significant area of the screen and will not move.

I already have Update Settings on “Check for updates but let you choose to install them”. There is no option to “Do not check for updates” on these versions of Firefox and Thunderbird. I already have Windows 11 Notification Settings on “Do not disturb” and all Firefox notifications to Off.

I have found the Mozilla Support article “Customising Firefox using Group Policy” at  https://mzl.la/3bLnw2J but I do not understand it and the device I am using is not part of a group installation setup. 

There is a Step by Step guide “How to stop Firefox update notifications” on Youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD-oXxrCCRs . This is clear to follow if I pause it frequently to absorb each step carefully. Is this safe for me to try given that I am very inexperienced in using the command line and accessing registry etc?

The Thunderbird popups have only recently started up and I would value advice on how to stop these safely too. I need this version of Thunderbird at present for particular reasons related to gmail so it is important I do not accidentally activate a download on that.

In firefox developer edition, when opening a new window of any kind, or when relaunching/opening the app, the new tab button always ends up on the left hand side. Going to the customization menu, I can move the button to the right side (next to the last tab), which is where I prefer it, however when opening any new window the button goes back to the left side

With my previous FF installation, it would remember both the width and the last selection in the sidebar after closing and re-opening FF.

I just formatted and reinstalled windows and now FF simply would not remember the last sidebar condition.

I'm using Windows 10 22H2 and FF 130 64-bit.

Sometimes when I am closing tabs in sequence in full-screen mode, mainly from either the left or right side, the browser will auto-hide after X'ing each tab, which is pretty annoying. Other times if I simply click the lower half of the tab, the browser will auto-hide to full-screen mode. If my cursor goes over some of the white space (address bar, or the areas in between the tabs, or the area to the right of the open tabs assuming it isn't a full bar) it will auto-hide. I noticed I can trigger this behavior 100% simply by clicking anywhere in the tab bar (X or not) and the tab bar will attempt to auto-hide to full-screen mode.

I don't think it used to be this way so my question is: Is there a way I can change the settings to make the mouse cursor location the sole determining factor (clicking) in when the auto-hide feature activates, and if I can introduce a lag time of X seconds after the mouse leaves the top bar?

When I click a link or open a new Tab Firefox opens a new window. I have Firefox and Thunderbird pinned to the Taskbar and usually switch between them easily. Today when I try to switch to Firefox another FF window opens. Why is this happening and how can I stop it.?

microsoft store & my request for mozilla firefox as my default for web browser. microsoft quick message 'there was a problem, and then microsoft inserted edge as my browser, I DO NOT WANT FYI Norton safe web browser is also on

I use a 2 year old iMac. My Firefox is 131. When I drag or move a window, the windows are automatically changing sizes and taking a full screen size. I do not want that feature but don't see how or where to stop it.

I'm new to firefox and recently tried their chat bot side bar feature. My only problem is once I've added the sidebar/show side bar tool to the tool bar it only displays the chat bot after I turn the setting on and off again. When I close the browser and reopen it, the sidebar button becomes a bookmark button instead. I'm just wondering if there's a solution to this where it only opens the chat bot? Or am i stuck with opening and closing the chat bot feature so it shows up when I click the menu bar shortcut?

A single click in the address bar highlight the entire URL. How to prevent such behavior? Also many web sites try to manage selection and cursor position of input fields. Is there setting to completely prevent such behavior everywhere?

reason: It is really easy and fast to triple click or press Ctrl+A on the bar/field if it really necessary to highlight. But usually I just want to correct mistake in the cursor position and automatic highlighting just preventing me from doing what I want.

I lost my bookmarks on your update. Also my short cut list and the settings on the main page. I can not understand your directions which just take me in circles. Please provide some simple instructions on how to recover my bookmarks and short cuts.

This has been a very bad experience,
