Firefox Community Forum

When I add sites for exceptions, why isn't this carried with my Firefox account and it shows up in every instance of Firefox when i am signed in? It is a nuisance to keep re-adding them everywhere. Also, when Firefox updates, why do I have to re=enter what I already done. It is a pain.

Firefox decided to not play any sound on my laptop, Spotify works on itself, if I open it in Firefox it doesn't. Same with YouTube and everything else. I use Artix Linux, I double-booted with Windows and it works on it, just not on Artix for some reason. I have tried to allow acces to it, even redownloaded everything, nothing worked. It's not the biggest problem, since there are subtitles, but it would be good if it worked.

Je suis constamment interrompu par le pop up suivant, comment le faire cesser? "Contrôle de compte d'utilisateur. Voulez-vous autoriser cette application à apporter des modifications à votre appareil? De Firefox Soft ware Updateur. Editeur vérifié: Mozilla Corporation. Origine du fichier: Disque dur de cet ordinateur." Pourtant dans les paramètres on indique que tout est à jour et aucune action n'est requise. Comment le flusher sans qu'il réapparaisse à tout moment et comment puis-je m'assurer que ce n'est pas de l'intrusion ?

I don't know why any browser never seems to allow for this. I hate using the mouse wheel to scroll down webpages and always use the scroll bar on the right side. Problem is most of the time it's way to skinny/narrow to be practically used and the bar you use to scroll it up and down - especially on long pages - is so tiny as to be completely unusable. It may not be an issue for tweens who still have eyes like hawks but for older people, like me, it's a pain in the tuchus. I'd like to be able to increase both the size - width mostly - of the slide rail and increase the overall size of the slide bar you use to control it.

Thanks!

I am running the latest public stable release of Firefox, 151.0.1 (aarch64), and these last few weeks I've been getting prompted to grant my location over and over every time I do a Google search. In MacOS, I've granted Firefox location permission and I've repeatedly saved me giving google permission but it doesn't stop. This is happening on my MacBook Pro and Mac Studio.

Anyone else? Any tips? It's maddening. lol

Hello, I just bought a yearly plan of the Mozilla VPN and would like to use it in a docker container using gluetun. However, I'm not able to find where can I see the connection information. Is there a way to obtain the VPN tunnel information to configure my VPN over it? Thank you.

Hi, a while ago something changed in my Firefox where when browsing and refreshing a page it now returns to the top of the page. It always use to refresh to the same place on the page so i didn't need to scroll to get back to where i was. Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

how can i restore control of my device? I keep receiving this: "someone else, like a parent or administrator, controls settings on the network, browser or device that you’re using", but it is my device and I am a 41 year old adult.

Every time I try to use Google as a search engine in Firefox, this message appears. "About this page Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?:

I believe this occurred earlier in the year but was marked as solved. Immediately after Firefox automatically update to 151.0 64 bit today (in Western Australia), I am plagued with it as well.

I have tried disabling extensions and am not (I believe) running in incognito mode.

Any suggestions please?

When viewing pdf files created from MS Word (.docx) documents and sent to me I see white lines across some images but not all. This happens with Firefox on Windows 11 and linux mint (various versions). It is present on the images from the file as received and after uploading to a website. The images are OK if viewed using Opera or other browsers but the same problem is present on Thunderbird. The file below has the problem on 2 images when viewed on Firefox. https://www.kass.org.uk/Documents/NewsletterFrom251114/20260304%20March%20Newsletter.pdf I have caused the writer of the article a lot of trouble because I blamed her file which seems to be OK. Can you help? Thanks Brian

Just checking Facebook "download your information" and got this:

```

     {
       "timestamp": 1781017200,
       "label_values": [
         {
           "label": "Date",
           "value": "2026-06-09"
         },
         {
           "label": "Business or organization",
           "value": "Firefox",
           "description": "The business or organization that added you to a Custom Audience"
         }
       ]
     },

```

Is this actual Firefox passing my info to Meta, or some Meta scammer pretending to be Firefox?

On that date, I had Global Privacy Control turned on in Firefox.

My original email is no longer valid. Every time I attempt making a secondary email the system wants to send a code to the email that no longer works. How do I rectify this problem?
