Firefox Community Forum

Hello, I am having and issue where my bookmarks toolbar keeps disappearing. I have the settings to have it "always show", but it is not there. I have to right click on the toolbar and select one of the other options then go back and select always show and then it reappears. What can I do to fix this? Thanks!

In the article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions-recommended

https://packages.mozilla.org/apt leads to 404, not a Debian software repository / archive.

Step 4 (is broken)

Next, add the Mozilla APT repository to your sources list:

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc] https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.list > /dev/null

If I select "Privacy & Security > History > Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings > Data > Site settings" what SQLite files affected when Firefox closes?

I suspect in the profile folder directly, there's a file called "storage.sqlite", but there seems to be more things affected because the whitelist for my cookies is also wiped-out.

In my experience (115.23.0.esr), when I request to remove site data when Firefox closes, it wipes out my cookie white list, so I want to manage that myself.

Hi Mozilla forum

How is it possible to disable notification for Mozilla Firefox addins through Firefox Administrative template?

I have looked here: https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/

But cant find the right setting to set if you need to configure it through Intune.

I used this article for Chrome and Edge: https://www.anoopcnair.com/disable-browser-notifications-from-intune/

But cant find the right setting if you need to configure it for Firefox

Under Mozilla Settings, there is a notification at the top of the page saying "Your browser is being managed by your organization." Upon clicking, it shows: "Policy Name: Certificates", "Policy Value: ImportEnterpriseRoots", "true".

I am familiar with this notification from using Mozilla on my work laptop, but this is now showing on my personal laptop. Can you clarify what this is? I don't want to grant my employer right to manage my browsing on personal laptop, if that is what is happening. Not sure if this is because I synced settings with my browser login on the work laptop or what...

Currently the the firefox nightly study, Carrot Potential Exposures (Nightly Test), has no description. (It says to be determined) I was wondering what this study does becouse I cant seem to find information on it. I think it was added in the last nightly update but maybe not; i may just have not noticed it.

I have been told that interact with my internet email service provider does not allow me to do such things as add attachment to emails because my firefox browser is using an improper buffer size. The email service provider tech would not speculate on what that buffer size should be. Only to state that Firefox had it wrong and a Firefox tech could explain the problem to me further..

 I am also finding that when I try to use firefox  address book I get this response...

Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

Can someone enlighten me on these issues.?

Regarding the new tab grouping feature, I see you have to go to "about.config" and change "browser.tabs.groups.enabled" to "TRUE" to activate this feature. But there are 3 other options - what do each of these other 3 mean?

(1) browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled (2) browser.tabs.groups.smart.optin (3) browser.tabs.groups.smart.userEnabled

Thanks.

The A4 print preview (and the printout itself) from the PDF file is shrunken. I've tried printing from Edge and everything works normally there, so it's a Firefox problem. How do I fix it?

Up until a coouple of days ago while working in Chrome when a Firefox notification popped up from chat websites in Firefox, I could click on the notification and be switched to the website in Firefox. Now all that happns is the Firefox icon in the taskbar blinks... I wonder if it's due to a recent windows update... I already tried https://www.google.com/search?q=click+on+firefox+notifications+from+google+chrome+doesn%27t+open+the+firefox+window+anymore&rlz=1C1CHZN_enUS1012US1012&oq=&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCQgBECMYJxjqAjIJCAAQIxgnGOoCMgkIARAjGCcY6gIyCQgCECMYJxjqAjIJCAMQIxgnGOoCMgkIBBAjGCcY6gIyCQgFECMYJxjqAjIJCAYQIxgnGOoCMgkIBxAjGCcY6gLSAQk0MTEwajBqMTWoAgiwAgHxBUR0_OJciqr5&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I am using an extension to monitor websites. I would like to start it as homepage. Unfortuantely, it does not come up active. It requires a manual reload (Ctrl-R) because it doesn't fully start.

Is it possible to automate this initial reload?

If not, can the extension developer force the reload on browser startup?

Thanks

I'm debugging some web sites, and I often need to reload a page to see if a change I made on the server works correctly. On iPads and Android devices, this doesn't seem possible. Yes, there are the circular-arrow buttons, but they only work with Firefox (and Chrome;-) on my MacOS or my linux server, but not on my iPads or Android gadgets. They act like they're doing something, but the page on their screen doesn't change. (With FF or Chrome on the "real" computers, it does change). The only advice I find online is to use CTL-R or something similar but those "devices" don't have CTL buttons. Nothing else I guess at works, either.

When I ask online, I get replies that work for linux, MacOS or Windows, but clearly saying "iPad or Android doesn't help; the answers don't apply to those systems.

Am I missing something? Web developers need ways debug their code or html or whatever they're working on, and this requires checking how it works on the actual users' screens.
