The username for some website might contain sensitive private information like phone number, identity card number, etc. It would be better if the primary password is required before revealing the password manager page.

I've been trying to decipher browser.tabs.insertXXX with little success. What I want to achieve is to open tabs from the same site next to the current tab with the most recently opened tab next to the original tab.

Example Two tabs are open, site 1 tab 1 and site 2 tab 1. Open a new link to site 1 on site 1 tab 1. The order is site 1 tab 1, site 1 tab 2, site 2 tab1. Open another link to site 1 on site 1 tab 1. The order is now site 1 tab 1, site 1 tab 3, site 1 tab 2, site 2 tab 1.

Thanks in advance.

I run Firefox on Fedora Linux (Silverblue). For several releases I've noticed that the reader mode only displays the Close Reader View, Text and Layout, and Theme options and nothing else i.e. no content.

When I run it in troubleshooting mode, it works. I've tried disabling all my extensions, deleting all my extensions,restoring the browser to default settings but nothing makes a difference. I'm always on the latest release (currently 147.0.3). I currently have multiple profiles, but it didn't work even before I rebuilt them. I'm out of ideas.

Any help is appreciated

On Debian Linux, how can I make all text in Firefox BOLD - t'ab names, texts on Toolbars, text on web pages, everything?

I can't upload files such as photos to AI generators.When I try to upload the list of folders pop up but when I click on any of the folder the content I know is there doesn't appear. Why? At the bottom of this question area there is an image upload option but for some reason I am unable to access my files to upload. I am perplexed.

I am running Firefox on Kubuntu, which means it comes pre-installed as a Flatpak.

I was having problems with various web sites so I decided to try using the version of Firefox installed with the file found here - https://www.firefox.com/en-US/thanks/

There were no problems with the install. This version of Firefox showed the same issues as the Flatpak version, so I blame the web sites.

Now I have two versions of Firefox. I would like to remove this second version but all the methods I've found do not remove it. I can certainly disable it by renaming the directory created in my user directory /Firefox. Trouble is, shortcuts I created to web sites always launch this version rather than the Flatpak version and I can't find a way to get the shortcuts to use the Flatpak version.

I would like to allow or block extension for certain site.

What i need is: 1) Turn on extension on specific sites (like for government) 2) Do not load extension on specific sites

So there should be Order Allow,Deny and reverse Order Deny,Allow And two rules Deny *://example.com/* Allow *://example.com/some/*

Pourquoi ne pas proposer l'activation par défaut du VPN intégré au navigateur dès le lancement de Firefox ? Why not enable the browser's built-in VPN by default when Firefox launches?

I get why the domain is highlighted, and it's good! But the rest of the URL can be hard to read, especially with dark themes (see screenshot, taken of this page's URL bar, using the default Dark theme). I have tried to find a dark theme with better contrast, but haven't had any success.

Is there a setting that I can change to set the font colors or contrast between them?

I cannot add much to the description. I'll make the comment that having to look into the history to find a tab supposedly at hand is inefficient and a waste of time.

I want to upload the current version of Firefox. However, the system Administrator (who is me) will mnot allow me to do so. How do I change settings to allow for the upload.

replaced a windows 10 laptop with a Linux Mint 22.3 laptop. Used Sync to transfer profile to the new laptop. Logged into the banking account (BECU.org) successfully. When trying to transfer money from checking to savings, the transaction failed with a statement that the date was invalid. The date was valid. A separate Linux Mint computer that never had a windows profile synced does not show this problem. Disabling all extensions did not fix this problem.

I like having the shortcuts to regular sites on the home page, but its usefulness is spoiled by every site I momentarily visit also appearing and replacing my pinned sites. This renders it basically useless. Can we please have a way of removing 'visited sites' from the shortcuts.

Installing the latest version of Firefox and Debian 13.

Following the instructions in the Mozilla Support document Install Firefox on Linux https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux

Operating as Super User.

Chose the option Install Firefox .deb package for Debian-based distributions (recommended)

Steps 1, 2, and 3 worked exactly as expected with in a terminal and using bash.

Step 4 and 5, following the For Debian Trixie and Newer choice does not work. A lot of digging on the internet and found that the command beginning with cat <<eof needs to be cat the second part of this process has same issue. appling new information solved problem both statements now work. p></eof>

At this point you have a directory /etc/apt/keyrings. In this directory you have the file packages.mozilla.org.asc Step 3 returns success. You have also successfully applied steps 4 and 5. In directory /etc/apr/souces.list.d you have the file mozilla.sources.

It contains the instruction “Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg”

No where in the previous stepd was the file Signed-By: packages.mozilla.org.gpg ever created.

Why is the deb package looking in /usr/share/keyrings when step 2 puts a similarly named file Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc in /etc/apt/keyrings

Step 6

Running apt update returns

Err:4 https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease  Sub-process /usr/bin/sqv returned an error code (1), error message is: Error: Failed to parse keyr ing "/usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg"  Caused by:     0: Reading "/usr/share/keyrings/p ackages.mozilla.org.gpg": No such file or directory (os error 2)     1: No such file or directory (o s error 2) Warning: OpenPGP signature verification failed: https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease: Sub-process /usr/bin/sqv returned an error code (1), error message is: Error: Failed to parse keyrin g "/usr/share/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.gpg"  Caused by:     0: Reading "/usr/share/keyrings/pac kages.mozilla.org.gpg": No such file or directory (os error 2)     1: No such file or directory (os error 2) Error: The repository 'https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla InRelease' is not signed.

This is a follow up of previous posts. Note to Wxie & Denys

Dell Optiplex desktop, Linux Mint Mate 22 OS. Currently updated to FF 150.0. For several months, this machine has failed to load bookmarks, approximately half the time. Banner message displayed advising user to load bookmarks. Closing and restarting FF usually (but not always) corrects this. Also, last month or so, bootup displays single window, even if there were two or more on previous shutdown. In settings menu, FF is set to re-open previous windows and tabs. Also on boot, this machine takes much longer to open FF than an older Dell Inspiron laptop, which is otherwise slower than this desktop. When FF icon selected in desktop, just before it opens, the tray flashes the missing extra window but it is not shown or available in the tray and does not load.

The two machines are set up identically, both in FF settings and with the same add-ons- Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin. Just looked in Synaptic of both machines and the laptop shows two FF items as installed- FF 150.0 +linuxn The FF Web Browser and FF-en locale English language pack. The desktop Synaptic shows no FF items installed (!). The laptop runs as expected, opening FF with all windows and bookmarks. Both machines received FF 150.0 via update manager.

Listen I have a profile in another partition in Mint and want to transfer my Bookmarks/profile etc to my new 22.3 install but far too complicated. I also have a previous Key which I no longer wish to use as it has deleted all 20 years worth of messages. Please please please just set up my profile again oFirefox or then revert by to the one from 2025 Mint 21.3 Thomas McM Rbold textamos de Deus

There have been a reoccurring problem with Firefox that seems to show up in Linux, Windows, and MacOS. When I log into icloud, I get an error message that the icloud username and password is incorrect, even though the same password has been enter in Safari and other non-firefox browser without issue.

I have tried

• Run Firefox in safe mode.
• Clear icloud site data.
• Clear all Firefox browser data.

The only fix seems to be to create a new profile, which seems to point to a profile corruption issue. The problem is that the problem return after a while.
