Firefox Форум

Every few days, Firefox makes me log back in again to my account and "create" a new profile version - the message I get is that I have launched an older version, and can only EXIT or CREATE NEW PROFILE. The problem is when I have to do this, I lose all the pinned tabs I had open, also I have to log into Gmail each time and generally set the profile up again. I can then access my bookmarks and containers but not the tabs I had open.

Is there a way to stop Firefox from forcing me to relaunch my profile each time? Its frustrating to lose the pinned data and have to log back into my Firefox profile, then Gmail, then try to figure out where I was at last. Note, the pinned tabs are not things I need to bookmark but rather a running list of tasks/things I need to complete - and unfortunately I don't know when I will be forced to launch a new profile but don't want to create a bookmark each time for temporary tabs... for example, last night I was just in the middle of planning a trip so had a few tabs open to come back to, but when I logged into my laptop this morning, I was forced to create a new profile and have lost these tabs I had pinned.

Hello,

Is there a way to completely remove the bookmark editor? I have it configured to not show when adding a bookmark and would like to not see it when removing it. The button in the addres bar should toggle between add/remove with no ui.

Regards.

Hello,

I've changed the background color on the private tabs/windows with this CSS:

@-moz-document url(about:privatebrowsing){
 html.private{
  background-color: #2B2A33 !important;
  --in-content-page-color: gray !important;
}

I would like to make the "background-color" to be the same as the window background without hardcoding it, so it always match the theme, ie:

 background-color: <window.background> !important;

I would like to do the same with the background color of the search box in the private mode window, but I can't find the id.

Regards.

Hello,

I've just upgraded and almost done with the userchrome customizations but I need help with some little things.

Is there a way to remove the dotted frame in the history/bookmarks tree as seen in the attached picture.

Thanks.

I had the PC at Staples to get malware removed. They also removed the AVG Anti-Virus and installed McAfee Anti-Virus instead. When I got the PC home, many of my Firefox settings had been changed, I don't know by what or whom. And my Greasemonkey and Adblocker extensions had been removed. I reinstalled those, but now cannot get my two desired scripts for Greasemonkey to download, let alone install. I also now have a message, "your browser is being managed by your organization." But this is my own PC that I use for both work and personal purposes. I've tried all the recommended approaches for removing the "organization" message, to no avail. Tech support from McAfee recommended removing and reinstalling Firefox, but I don't know if that is likely to fix the problem, and I would lose all my bookmarks, some of which are important for my work. I don't know how to save the bookmark links before trying to uninstall/reinstall Firefox. Need help.

Zoom not working correctly

I'm unable to maximize a specific website (Craigslist state home pages) correctly by zooming. The page opens at 80% zoom, which is too small to read. If I use the mouse wheel or control +, the zoom indicates 90%, but it's so large that only a small part of the text on the page is visible, and 3/4 of the page is blank space. It looks more like 300% even though it says 90%.

I can open the page correctly in full screen using F11 or the double-headed arrow in the upper lefthand corner, but then I don't have access to the menu bar. Is this a problem with Firefox, my computer, or Craigslist? I don't have this problem with any sites except Craigslist home pages.

Solutions I've tried: Clicked on maximize in upper righthand corner; used mousewheel and F11 to change zoom; cleared all cookies and cache, opened in troubleshooting mode, selected "Zoom text only" (made it worse so I deselected it).

Thanks for your help! I use CL for job hunting so I'd like to solve this.

The fonts are weird for some pages. I have used the following settings: Fonts for: latin, Proportional: Serif, Serif: Default(DejaVu Serif), Sans-serif: Default(DejaVu Sans), Monospace: Default(DejaVu Sans Mono). Also I have checked the box "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above".

Need help to fix the issue!

Only for some selected websites. I get this on Lowes.com too

Network Protocol Error

An error occurred during a connection to www.homedepot.com.

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the network protocol was detected.

   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Woke up this morning, opened up Firefox and the Trolls have been busy rearranging things during the night. My profile manager disappeared, but I was able to fix that. Now my tabs are out of place and I cannot find what to do to put the Tabs back on bottom, "The way they Should be". Help, please.

Anne,

Also, I am not real computer literate, so draw pictures if necessary.

Thank you.

I used to be able to open a password protected pdf email attachment on my laptop without downloading it. Now when I enter the password, a file loading symbol appears but the file never opens. On other browsers and on my android I am able to open the pdf. How do I fix this situation?

I can't find any way to add to the list of document types and applications. I know I must have done (because they are different from my wife's options), but now she needs to add one, and there is no immediately obvious way to do this. How do I add a new entry in the list in Settings/General/Files and Applications/Applications?

Thanks,

Tony

I have been using Firefox for many years. Suddenly I cannot get any sound from videos in Facebook, YouTube or anywhere. The settings in Privacy --> Permissions --> Autoplay are set to "Allow Audio and Video". There is nothing wrong with the computer as I can play videos and sound files on it with no problem. Sound is no problem on Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge. It is just Firefox that after years of use the sound as stopped working. Can anybody help?

A few months ago when I updated to the latest version, as I always do, the bookmarks were not carried over. I restored to an earlier time to retrieve them and have been using an old version. Every time that I go to the program and when asked to update, I click "no." I am finding now that several websites will not accept Firefox. After 20 years of saving, I do not want to recreate, as I would have had to do at that time. Do I now upgrade to newest version and pray that my bookmarks are there?

So I can not play audio from any website in firefox. I updated, refreshed, used troubleshoot mode, and unistall & reinstalled. Nothing works. I know it is not my PC because the sound works on every other app, just firefox wont play audio PLEASE HELP

Recently I am continuously proposed to install updates. I do that, but I think the installation may fail, because immediately after restarting Firefox I'm proposed to install a new update. I have Firefox set up to download updates as soon as they are available.

The version I'm using is 104.0, which should be the latest one available for desktop, therefore I don't understand why the browser is trying to load again the update.

Latest Firefox update 104.0 started displaying "This connection is not secure. Logins entered here could be compromised" again after previously being disabled. It's an annoying message that pops up on my intranet logins and I want it disabled again. I did the usual in about:config and set security.insecure_field_warning.contextual.enabled to False and security.insecure_password.ui.enabled to False like previously, but the message is still there. It seems that latest update is forcing this message and ignoring the settings to disable them. Please help!

Lately I've been seeing Firefox apparently shut down all on it's own. Most times it would happen right after opening up a PDF attachment in our Yahoo webmail email with Adobe DC. I thought that by clearing the cache and history this would fix it. It did not. The only thing that seemed to work was to open up the PDF using a browser instead of Adobe. I thought that it might be an isolated case since it was only happening on the office computer. I was using a different computer this morning and it happened on this computer as well.

I ran Firefox in 'troubleshoot mode' and it didn't make any difference. The only thing that seemed to make a difference was to open up the PDFs in a browser instead of Adobe Acrobat DC?
